Xuzhou envoy to Jingzhou also received by Liu Biao, Xuzhou was attacked by the Cao army, Jingzhou up and down is also extremely uneasy, since the defeat of the traitor Yuan Shu, Cao Cao became more and more restless, not only occupied Yuzhou but also Shouchun to break through, sent generals to attack Henan Yin and Hongnong, and now sent troops to Xuzhou, if you sit back and watch Cao Cao develop like this, Jingzhou is not without room for development, a big Cao Cao is not in line with the interests of the royal family.

Liu Biao's intention to seek Yizhou has long been there, but the terrain of Yizhou is dangerous to defend and difficult to attack, after Liu Zhang became the pastor of Yizhou, he also does not interact with the outside world, obviously Yizhou as a country within a country, if Liu Zhang can take refuge in the royal family, for Jingzhou, the impact is far-reaching, Yizhou is the country of abundance, fertile fields, Sichuan soldiers are able to fight well, beneficial to the state as the rear, Liu Biao can also have a stronger force to clean up Jiangdong.

After a major defeat, although the number of Jingzhou troops was increased to 60,000, it was difficult for these 60,000 people to have much combat power at all, and Sun Ce attacked Jiangxia more than once, and Jingzhou, which was caught in the flames of war, was not suitable for fighting with Yanzhou at this time.

Of course, as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Biao still had to show his posture and send envoys to Cao's army to persuade the two families to make peace, and of course Xuzhou also ceded some cities, which was also the price that the weaker side had to pay.

When Sun Gan arrived at Dangyin City, Yuan Shao had retreated for three days, looking at the gloomy Dangyin and the banner of the Bingzhou Army floating on the city, Sun Gan was shocked, when he was in Xuzhou, he learned that the news was that the Bingzhou Army was attacking Dangyin, comparable to the Jizhou Army, but now it seems that the Jizhou Army lost, otherwise why did the Dangyin fall into the hands of Lu Bu.

"Meet the Marquis of Jin!" Sun Qian saluted respectfully, although there was some unhappiness between Liu Bei and Lu Bu, but Lu Bu's love for rescuing Xuzhou in the past cannot be forgotten, even if he was an official and general of Xuzhou, when he mentioned Lu Bu, his words were also full of respect.

Lu Budao: "Gongyou went to the Bingzhou Army, I don't know what happened? "Sun Qian is also a well-known figure in history, and he has been sent to all parties as Liu Bei's envoy many times, which can be described as a high degree of hard work.

Cao Jun's attack on Xuzhou, how could Lu Bu not know, but the current situation is that he can't take care of Xuzhou, he wants to take advantage of a big victory, when the people in Jizhou are panicking, to get more benefits from Yuan Shao, and it is best to be able to capture Jizhou in one fell swoop.

Sun Qian arched his hand and said: "The grace of the Marquis of Jin to rescue Xuzhou in the past, Xuzhou is unforgettable, and now the Marquis of Shanyang has gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses to invade Xuzhou, Liu Zhoumu is worried about the people of Xuzhou, and hopes that the Marquis of Jin can send soldiers and horses to rescue Xuzhou." ”

Lu Bu shook his head and said: "The Bingzhou army has been fighting for a long time, and the soldiers are tired, why doesn't Liu Xuande ask Jingzhou for help?" ”

"Under the banner of avenging his father, Wu Hou attacked Jiangxia, although the saint had the intention to save Xuzhou, it was difficult to draw troops and horses." Sun Qiandao.

Lu Bu said: "Gongyou has a hard journey, and he is now in the city for a few days. ”

Sun Qian bowed and left the hall, he also knew that Lü Bu would not send rescuers easily, and when he was in the coalition army, Lü Bu had a close relationship with Cao Cao, which was not a secret among the princes.

"The matter of the envoy of Xuzhou will be handed over to Wenhe to deal with." Lu Bu said slowly.

"The subordinates are willing to attack Jizhou for the front!" Zhang Liao went out of the ranks, the Jizhou army was defeated, and Zhang Liao's grudge was not released, and his deputy general Zhang Wu died in the city, it is said that he died in the chaos of the Jizhou army, and the corpse capital was not intact.

"Wenyuan, don't panic, attacking Jizhou is a big deal." Lu Bu set his eyes on Jia Xu.

Jia Xu understood and said: "Now Jizhou is not stable, the 100,000 people of the Montenegrin Army poured out of the nest and plundered the counties and counties of Jizhou, and the tens of thousands of troops of the Jizhou Army were defeated in Dangyin, and Zhang Yan, the commander of the Montenegrin Army, is interested in merging the state, if he can unite with it, he will definitely make Yuan Shao unable to take care of each other." ”

Zhang Liao's expression froze, but he didn't expect Zhang Yan from Jizhou to be a chess piece secretly arranged by Bingzhou.

"Wenhe's words are true, but Yuan Shao has occupied Jizhou for a long time, although he has lost 50,000 troops this time, there are still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Wei County that should not be underestimated." Lu Bu also knew that it was extremely difficult to capture Yecheng with the forces in his hands, Jizhou was the place where the family gathered the most, and the family in Jizhou was very supportive of Yuan Shao.

If Zhang Yan can take the opportunity to occupy the land of Zhongshan, Changshan, and Zhaojun, the strength in Yuan Shao's hands will definitely be sharply reduced.

"Now that our military is based on the land east of the Hedong River in Hanoi, its rule is not stable, even if it attacks Jizhou, it will not send too many soldiers and horses to it." Lu Budao.

The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, after Cao Cao captured Henan Yin and Hongnong, he must have coveted the land east of the river, at this time, if the state army wantonly attacked Jizhou, it would take a great risk, on the surface there is an alliance between the state and Yanzhou, but in the face of interests, what can this verbal covenant be.

Jia Xu nodded, this is also the result of his discussion with Lu Bu, this is not the best time to attack Jizhou, Jizhou is defeated, and what the Jizhou army has to do is to make Jizhou unstable, and then clean up Jizhou after the state recovers from the war, it is best to make Jizhou pay the price, and the Montenegrin army is where the confidence lies, as long as Zhang Yan can seize the land of Zhongshan, Changshan, and Zhao County, it will become much easier to seize Jizhou.

Lu Bu also found that there were many inconveniences after governing the land, and there were too many scruples to be considered, if there was no Jizhou army attacking Hanoi, I am afraid that the Jizhou army was attacking Chang'an at this time.

"The matter of leading troops to Wei County this time was handed over to General Zhang Liao, supplemented by General Pang De, mainly to deter Jizhou." Lu Budao.

Zhang Liao had never seen Pang De make a move, and this kind of place where senior generals of the state army discussed military affairs was not something that Pang De could participate in.

"Whoa!" Zhang Liao hugged his fist.

"General Xu Huang's 3,000 soldiers and horses guarded the song of the dynasty to prevent chaos at night." Lu Budao.

At this time, there were only a few households in Dangyin City, and under the siege of the Jizhou army and a big flood, Dangyin City seemed to have become a ruined city, and there was no value in guarding it.

If there are garrisons stationed in a city, there can be no shortage of people in the city, and the large armies stationed in various places rely more on the taxes of the people in the city, and if there are no people, they can only rely on the money and grain allocated by the governor's government.

In Dangyin City, Sun Gan soon knew how the Jizhou army was broken, only more than 1,000 people fled from nearly 40,000 troops, and Jizhou was miserable enough, even if Yuan Shao had a heart, I am afraid he would not be able to take care of Xuzhou, at this time, how could Lu Bu give up, unless Xuzhou could come up with enough things to make Bingzhou happy, plus the previous losses, just in Dangyin, the Jizhou army lost a minimum of 50,000 soldiers and horses.

It's time to go to work, it's a busy holiday, I wish you all a good mood every day!
