At the beginning of the peace negotiation, Liu Biao never imagined that he would pay such a big price for this peace negotiation.

Originally, according to his intentions, he only needed to let go of the road and let Sun Jian and the others leave.

But he didn't expect that when he saw Sun Jian's face, he realized that the other party's request was so excessive, and they actually wanted to hand over the entire Changsha County to Jiangdong by themselves.

This is tantamount to cutting a piece of meat on Liu Biao's body, but now Liu Biao is difficult to ride a tiger.

If he was entangled with Sun Jian here again, then once Liu Yuan's side started attacking, he would not be able to resist at all.

After all, his Jingzhou is under Liu Yuan's troops, and Liu Yuan will only pose a threat to Jiangdong after he takes all his Jingzhou.

This is also the reason why Sun Jian can be so fearless, after thinking about it, Liu Biao decided to accept this condition that made him very difficult, losing a Changsha County is much better than losing the foundation.

And after Sun Jian got the entire Changsha County, he could be regarded as achieving his expected goal.

After all the Jingzhou troops were evacuated, Sun Jian began to take over the defense of the entire Changsha County.

Sun and Liu's two sides are finally over, and this battle, which has attracted the attention of the world, has also made many people breathe a sigh of relief.

But now there is still a person who doesn't know about this major event that can be said to shock the world.

This person is Wei Yan, who just came out of the Qinling Mountains, and after defeating the captain of Kuaiyue's personal guard, he took the surviving veteran Youzi and went headlong into the reckless mountains of the Qinling Mountains.

Originally, according to his estimates, in a month at most, he would be able to enter the Shuzhong region with the only remaining people under his command.

But what they didn't expect was that they encountered a dense fog covering the sky and the sun for several days on the way, which made them dizzy.

They lost their way in the mountains, and the food supplies they were carrying were all used up more than two months ago.

Wei Yan and his subordinates could only look around in the reckless mountains to find something to eat.

While searching for food, some of his men died in the attacks of wild beasts, some died in the mountains, and some even starved to death.

After they finally walked out of the mountain, Wei Yan looked behind him, and there were not even thirty people, which made Wei Yan's eyes redden for the first time in his life.

After collecting his mood, Wei Yan took his remaining subordinates and began to advance towards Chengdu.

Now they still have thousands of miles to go from Chengdu, and they can only rely on two legs to catch up.

When Wei Yan and his subordinates marched towards Chengdu in embarrassment, Lü Bu had already led his army to take the entire Yangzhou.

Now he is taking his subordinates and preparing to return to Qingzhou.

In the Battle of Shouchun, Lu Bu not only led the army to take Shouchun City, but even took down almost all the children of the Yuan family, including Yuan Shu.

These people were put into a prisoner car by him, and he was going to give these people as gifts to the titular lord Cao Cao after taking the entire territory of Yangzhou, so as to paralyze Cao Cao's nerves.

And Yuan Yi, the only surviving son of the Yuan family at that time, was also captured alive by Lu Busheng in the ensuing battle.

When he saw that his only hope was also caught, Yuan Shu could only let out a long sigh helplessly, and then fell into silence.

During this period, Xu Huang also tried to find Lu Bu's flaws several times.

But with the help of Chen Gong, Lu Bu wiped all traces clean, which made Xu Huang do a lot of useless work.

After knowing that the entire territory of Yangzhou was taken by Lu Bu, Xu Huang did not find a way to control Lu Bu.

On the contrary, many of his subordinates were in awe of Lu Bu because of Lu Bu's courage and skill.

This made Xu Huang shout in his heart that it was not good, and he couldn't stop sending people to report the changes in the army to the lord Cao Cao, and Xu Huang sent a total of five waves of nearly 100 people for this purpose.

But what he didn't expect was that none of these people he sent could return to Linzi alive under the joint suppression of Lu Bu and Cao Pi.

Until Lu Bu led the army to prepare to return to Linzi, Xu Huang didn't know that the people he sent had already died at the hands of the other party.

And there are still people in Linzi City, who are ready to be disadvantageous to his lord.

Xu Huang had to guard Yangzhou that he had just conquered, so he couldn't return to Linzi with Lu Bu.

When sending Lu Bu and the others away, Xu Huang still had a worried expression.

However, on the other hand, Lu Bu felt extremely refreshed, under the secret operation of Chen Palace, the people who returned to Linzi with him this time were all people who had already become his confidants.

And Xu Huang's henchmen and those Qingzhou soldiers who were loyal to Cao Cao were all sent to Xu Huang's hands by them.

This ensured that in the event of an uprising, their men would obey his orders completely.

If you add the men and horses prepared by Cao Pi before, it will definitely be a force with considerable combat power.

At that time, even if Cao Cao is on guard, he will be sure to take the other party down in one fell swoop!

Thinking of this, Lu Bu couldn't help but feel a wave of joy in his heart, and looked in the direction where Linzi was, he thought that it would soon become his foundation.

Just when Lu Bu was dreaming, none of the people in Linzi City could sleep, because the atmosphere in Linzi suddenly became extremely strange during this time.

I don't know when, there were countless rumors about the lord Cao Cao in Linzi City.

I don't know who sent these messages, but they greatly hit the prestige of the old lord Cao Cao.

Because almost all of these rumors involve the private affairs of the old lord and some noble girls.

And it still involves the private affairs between Cao Cao and some of his subordinates' wives and concubines, and the most excessive thing is that the language is very filthy!

When Cao Cao first heard about these rumors, he just smiled disapprovingly.

But when the rumors became more and more exaggerated and uncontrollable, Cao Cao realized the seriousness of the matter.

And because some of these rumors are indeed ridiculous things he did when he was young, this makes these rumors have a certain credibility.

If these rumors can't be stifled in time, then once they are allowed to spread for a period of time, the entire Linzi will be ruined by these rumors!

That's why Cao Cao ordered Xun You, who had just returned from Shuzhong, to investigate the matter thoroughly.

After a period of investigation, Xun Yu put a book in front of Cao Cao with some heaviness.

Cao Cao originally looked angry, but when he saw Xun You's investigation, he only felt dizzy for a while, and he couldn't believe it was true at all.

According to Xun You's investigation, the initiator of this rumor turned out to be his eldest son Cao Ang, who he valued the most.

At that time, Cao Cao only felt like a bolt from the blue, and his head disease, which had just recovered, even showed signs of recurrence!
