Since Liu Bei, Xi Zhong, and Xun You have arrived in Zhuya Prefecture, they will not let the armies of Cangwu County and Hepu County continue to be disorderly!

In the camp, just when everyone was in silence, Xi Zhong said: "Lord, in the opinion of loyalty, the lord should give up the two counties of Hepu and Cangwu, and gather all the troops in Jiaozhi County to resist Yuan Shu, Liu Biao and Zhu Fu!" In this way, the lord can have the power to fight! ”

Liu Bei was very angry when he heard this, and then said: "Zhicai, the symbol of the four counties of Hepu, Cangwu, Nanhai and Yulin can be Jiaozhou, and it is the main body of Jiaozhou, if these four counties are lost, Jiaozhou will really not be owned by me!" ”

Xi Zhong ignored Liu Bei's anger, but admonished: "Lord, if Jiaozhou is lost, we can take it back, but if all the soldiers are lost in this battle, it will take at least ten years to recover Yuanqi!"

And to go, there are many advantages to giving up the four counties of Cangwu, Hepu, Yulin and Nanhai:

First, it was Yuan Shu, Liu Biao and Zhu Fu who attacked Jiaozhou this time, and now the lord is powerful, and the three princes can still attack the lord with one heart!

But if the lord is weak, then the princes of the three roads will inevitably have civil strife! After all, there is only one Jiaozhou, and the three of them want to eat Jiaozhou alone, which is the bane!

Second, after the lord retreats into Jiaozhi County, he only needs to resist Liu Biao's army, or the combined army of Liu Biao and Zhu Fu!

As for Yuan Shu's army, there are Liu Biao and Zhu Fu to resist for the lord, so the enemy army in front of the lord is only 100,000 at most!

Third, in the face of only 100,000 Liu Biao's army, the strategy set by the lord last year to capture Nanzhong can still be realized!

The lord only needs to let the 50,000 Jin Fan Army strictly guard the coast of Zhuyazhou and prevent Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, and Zhu Fu from crossing the sea into Zhuyazhou, then Zhuyazhou can be protected.

Then he ordered 100,000 county soldiers to garrison Jiaozhi County, so that the three counties of Jiaozhi, Rinan, and Jiuzhen could be protected.

And the lord can still mobilize more than 100,000 troops to attack Nanzhong, as long as Nanzhong is taken, Yizhou will be in danger, once Yizhou is taken, the lord can attack Hanzhong in the north and south, so Hanzhong can go down every day!

After taking Hanzhong, the six northwestern states of the lord, Yizhou, and the three counties of Jiaozhou will be connected, so it is only a matter of time before the lord takes Jiaozhou!

On the contrary, if the lord Yu Cangwu and Hepu desperately resist the army of the three princes, they can only consume their vital strength in vain, and they may not be able to recapture Jiaozhou! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he thought for a while, and finally bowed down to Xi Zhong and made a big salute, and then said: "Thank you Zhicai for reminding me, otherwise I will make a big mistake!" ”

Subsequently, Liu Bei ordered Wei Chi Zhan, who was stationed in Cangwu County, and Heting of Hepu County all retreated, assembled in Xuwen County, and then went to Zhuya Prefecture by boat!

After Wei Chizhan and He Tingerren received the order, they led the army to retreat as quickly as possible, and then Gan Ning led the 50,000 Jin Fan Army to receive the two armies in Xuwen and send them to Zhuyazhou.

After a few days, Su Fei led the 40,000 Jinfan army and the 40,000 defenders of Yizhou to arrive in Zhuyazhou.

In the end, Liu Bei ordered Gan Ning to lead 50,000 Jin Fan troops to snipe Yuan Shu, Liu Biao and Zhu Fu at Zhuya Prefecture and Jiaozhou Strait, while Su Fei led 40,000 Jin Fan Army to become troop carriers and transport 110,000 troops to Jiaozhi County.

And Yuan Shu led an army of 130,000 to set off from Nanhai County when Wei Chizhan began to withdraw, but what made Yuan Shu wonder along the way was that he didn't encounter any resistance along the way!

And the same is true of the 80,000 army led by Zhu Fu, after the two armies entered Cangwu County, there was no obstacle, and it was extremely smooth!

In the end, the two armies met in Guangxin County, Cangwu County! I almost fought because it was too dark!

After discovering Zhu Fu's army, Yuan Shu's face was also uncertain, and at the same time, his advisers Yan Xiang and Yang Hong immediately understood Cao Cao's intentions.

Cao Cao doesn't care who gets Jiaozhou at all, as long as Jiaozhou is not in Liu Bei's hands, then there will be no pressure on Cao Cao!

And Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, and Zhu Fu have completely fallen into the quagmire. In fact, if the three of them are willing, there will naturally be no conflict between the troops and their respective territories at this time!

But how could the three who had tasted the sweetness stop there? Liu Biao has just won half of the county, and he is marching into Hepu County at this time!

Yuan Shu only got one and a half counties, and confronted Zhu Fu in Guangxin at this time, and Zhu Fu was not much different from before, still occupying a county, but he had the name of state pastor!

In the end, Yuan Shu discussed with Yan Xiang and Yang Hong for a while and decided to send Zhu Fu as an envoy, hoping to drive Zhu Fu out of Cangwu County through the envoy; At the same time, Yuan Shu also sent people to Nanhai County to urge the reinforcements behind.

On this day, Zhu Fu ushered in Yuan Shu's envoy, and then Zhu Fu said: "Presumably, Yuan Zhoumu also attacked Jiaozhou because of Cao Cao's envoy, right?" ”

Yan Xiang replied: "That's true, this time my main attack on Jiaozhou was indeed called by the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven threatened that whoever conquered the land of Jiaozhou would be governed by whom!"

However, my lord did not intend to be an enemy of Zhu Zhoumu, so he sent me to discuss with Zhu Zhoumu, can Zhu Zhoumu be willing to be the first state pastor under my lord's command?

If Zhu Zhoumu is willing, then my lord is willing to attack Jiaozhou with Zhu Zhoumu, and in the future, only Zhu Zhoumu needs to recognize my lord as the master. This Jiaozhou is naturally handed over to the state pastoral governance! ”

This time, it was Yuan Shu's retreat as an advance, first recognizing Zhu Fu's right to govern Jiaozhou, and being the state pastor, but it limited Zhu Fu to recognize Yuan Shu, so that Jiaozhou was owned by Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu could also be white Zhu Fu's 100,000 army!

However, Zhu Fu was not good at his peers, and scoffed at Yan Xiang's suggestion, and then said: "Yuan Highway is too bullying, even if Yuan Highway Yangzhou has many generals, but is it comparable to my alliance with Liu Jingzhou?"

I have already negotiated with Liu Jingzhou to attack Jiaozhou with a soldier, so will Yuan Highway still compete with me for Cangwu County? ”

After that, Yan Xiang and Zhu Fu pulled their skins for a while. In the end, no one could convince the other party, so in desperation, Yan Xiang had no choice but to return to the Yuan Shu camp!

At this point, Zhu Fu and Yuan Shu had a feud, and after Yan Xiang returned to the army, Yuan Shu was thinking about how to recapture Cangwu County!

Yang Hong knew Yuan Shu's temperament, so he suggested Yuan Shudao: "Lord, Zhu Fu has an army of 100,000, but at this time there are only 80,000 in Cangwu County.

And there are still tens of thousands of young people who have not been trained, and there are only fifty or sixty thousand after such combat strength. And a few days later, the lord has nearly 200,000 elites, so with 20 battles and 50,000 or 60,000, wouldn't he be able to capture them!

More importantly, Zhu Fu has no advisers and no unscrupulous generals. How can it be the opponent of the lord, the lord only needs to wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and then lead the army to kill the generals! ”

Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard this, and then while urging the reinforcements behind him to hurry up, he ordered Ji Ling to lead the military Dao Zhu Fu army to see the challenge.

At the beginning, Zhu Fu also sent generals to fight with Ji Ling, but after killing three generals in a row, no generals under Zhu Fu dared to fight!

Zhu Fu was also helpless when he saw this, and then sent an envoy to Liu Biao's army for help, and Liu Biao smiled when he heard this, and then he didn't do it!

In this way, Zhu Fu fell into a dilemma, and he could only recruit young people in a county under his jurisdiction, and he could balance with Yuan Shu in terms of quantity!
