Chapter 505: Tao Qian is dead

Poyang Lake is also relatively important to Zhang Yu, which can provide a large amount of food.

There are also more than 100,000 people cultivating around Poyang Lake, and the surrounding land is all fertile and fertile land.

Unlike Dongting Lake, Dongting Lake is too far away, and it is very troublesome for Zhang Yu to control, but Poyang Lake is different, it is all in Jiangdong, and the distance is not very far.

In addition, Zhang Yu controls the Yangtze River and can support the surroundings of Poyang Lake at any time.

Therefore, for Zhang Yu, it doesn't matter whether he wants to sell Poyang Lake or not.

It's okay to sell it for a lot of money and make the territory grow quickly.

It's okay to keep it and supply food for a long time.

Zhang Yu thought for a while and said: "This matter can be discussed, but please show sincerity to Yuan Shu, if there is no sincerity, there is no need to talk about it." Waste of time. ”

Yang Hong was not surprised by Zhang Yu's reaction, thought for a while and said: "Trading Poyang Lake is beneficial to both parties, if I mainly occupy it, it may not be impossible, but I respect Lord Zhang, so I just trade with Lord Zhang." ”

Zhang Yu sneered and said, "The Yuan family doesn't know how many times they have threatened me until now, why bother to say these useless things, just come if you want to fight." ”

Yang Hong sighed secretly and said, "Lord Zhang, my lord is willing to give 30 million in exchange for this Jiangdong Poyang Lake, what do you think?" ”

Zhang Yu waved his hand and said: "Thirty million, it's not enough to stuff your teeth, you let him measure the land slowly, according to the current price of fertile land, it is more than 30 million." ”

Of course, Yang Hong knew the value of Poyang Lake, but Yuan Shu was unwilling to come out, and he wanted to lay a foundation but was not stable.

You must know that Yuan Shu was defeated all the way to this Jiangdong area, and he was still in Nanyang.

Yang Hongdu had already offered a price of 30 million, and he knew that Yuan Shu could not give more, and it was useless to say more.

After Yang Hong left, Zhang Yu said to himself: "This Yuan Shu has taken a fancy to Poyang Lake, but it's a trouble. ”

Being targeted by Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu will definitely find a way to take possession, and it will inevitably be a fight when the time comes.

Zhang Yu has never been afraid of fighting, and now that the newly occupied places have been digested, Zhang Yu also wants to open up to the outside world.

But if the two sides fight to consume, Zhang Yu decided not to draw it.

"If you don't want the water army to be exposed too early, just put the water army in Poyang Lake and see if Yuan Shu can sleep."

A soldier and horse placed in his hinterland, he may attack his territory at any time, and everyone will be afraid, but is Yuan Shu worth it for Zhang Yu to do this?

Zhang Yu hadn't made a choice yet, but Yuan Shu sent someone to negotiate to give him a wake-up call.

If you want to control the entire Yangtze River, in fact, the two lakes are very important and can be used as a base.

However, Zhang Yu has no plans to fight a large-scale civil war at present, and he is going all out to develop in order to lay a good foundation and complete the task of unification more easily in the future.

Yang Hong walked out, he also understood that neither Zhang Yu nor Yuan Shu would compromise.

If you don't compromise, you can only fight.

Zhang Yu first prepared the front line, and when it was time to fight, he couldn't be cowardly.

Let's put aside the matter of Yuan Shu first, it is not the most important thing at the moment.

At present, the most important thing is to develop and deal with the problems of the North.

Yu Fuluo accidentally made it bigger, which greatly exceeded Zhang Yu's expectations.

Originally, Zhang Yu thought that it would take two years for the Northern and Southern Xiongnu to decide the winner, but now the Northern Xiongnu are being pressed and beaten, and there are signs of fleeing in the direction of Europe.

Once the Northern Xiongnu fled, Yu Fuluo became bigger, and then he would make a move against China.

Zhang Yu didn't want such a thing to happen.

They wanted to support the Northern Xiongnu, but they were separated by a force in Yuvro, so they couldn't support them.

Zhang Yu was distressed, because Yu Fuluo had already issued an ultimatum to Zhang Yu, asking Zhang Yu to provide him with supplies cheaply.

It's December now, and Yu Fuluo can't go to war, but he thinks he is full-fledged, and he is already dissatisfied with Zhang Yu's control over him, and wants to blackmail Zhang Yu and provide him with supplies.

"There are 200,000 soldiers and horses with Shenyang City, so it is naturally no problem to protect yourself, but the people of my Youzhou may be beaten and slaughtered." Zhang Yu looked at the intelligence and said helplessly.

This is information sent from the north, and Zhang Yu wants to make a decision.

Of course, Zhang Yu will not continue to raise Yu Fuluo, otherwise Yu Fuluo can only become stronger, continue to be strong, maybe he will swell to the point of annexing the entire Han Dynasty.

"Xianbei's Kirby Neng is also engaged in a battle for unification, if you support him, will it be the next Yuvro?"

Zhang Yu also learned that Kirby Neng was also engaged in a battle of unification and wanted to unify Xianbei.

Historically, it was indeed Kirby who was able to unify Xianbei.

"Once the steppe people swell, it will be too troublesome to create another Yuvrolai."

Zhang Yu did not expect the population of the grassland to increase as quickly.

Otherwise, as long as Zhang Yu cut off Yu Fuluo's support half a year earlier, Yu Fuluo would not be able to grow stronger at this time, thus threatening Zhang Yu.

"Alas, don't worry about it for now, step by step."

Zhang Yu put down the information and wrote the order on the paper.

He asked Guo Jia to defend with all his might, without going to war, and to train his soldiers and horses well, and to raid the Huns when necessary.

Not long after Zhang Yu finished writing the order, an urgent message was delivered to Zhang Yu.

"Tao Qian hangs up." After opening the information, Zhang Yu saw the news of Tao Qian's death.

Historically, Tao Qian also died around this time.

When he died, Tao Qian gave Xuzhou to Liu Bei, but Liu Bei was still on his way back to Xuzhou at this time.

Originally, Liu Bei didn't plan to leave so early, he wanted to meet Lu Zhi and prove that he was Lu Zhi's student.

But where did Lu Zhi have time to pay attention to him at this time, he had been discussing academics with a few bigwigs, and Zhang Yu obstructed him, so he couldn't see Lu Zhi.

Originally, he wanted to stay, but Xuzhou secretly sent him information, telling Tao Qian that he was dying, and asked him to go back quickly.

As a last resort, Liu Bei continued to rush back to Xuzhou on the charge of speculation.

But before he could rush back, this Tao Qian had already hung up.

"History has not been changed, Tao Qian hanged, and Xuzhou gave it to Liu Bei, but how long can this Liu Bei endure?"

Historically, Liu Bei seized Xuzhou not long after he got it, and finally continued to flee.

Liu Bei went back with a lot of sorrow, but he failed to clear his "crime", and his reputation plummeted, which was very unfavorable to him.

But at this time, he couldn't take care of anything, and he wanted to hurry back to fight for Xuzhou.

Although Tao Qian ceded Xuzhou to him before his death, some local wealthy families in Xuzhou may not be convinced.

Fortunately, he made preparations before leaving, he did not bring Zhang Fei and Guan Yu out, the two of them had half of the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou, and they could still control the situation at this time.

After Mi Zhu received the news, Zhang Yu couldn't be fast for long, Tao Qian hid it from him and didn't give Mi Zhu the news.

When Mi Zhu found Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu said to him: "Xuzhou is too dangerous for you, you can't go back, you can quickly send someone to arrange, I will send someone to answer, as long as you are not in Xuzhou, Liu Bei is jealous, and he will not do anything to the Mi family." ”
