It was already five days after returning to Wanling, Yuan Shu did not further invade Xiapi or go north after getting Peijun, Li Ming was in a stable position, and did not attack, and the battle of Xuzhou naturally came to an end.

Xuzhou Rescue Battle: 41% completion (the enemy retreated, and the battle ended early); Rating 'Average', gaining experience xxxxx, obtaining ore - Meteorite.

The gains of this battle are simply not enough to be promoted to level 6o; That is, Wang Yu, Zhang Mo and Xi Zhi got the benefits, and they were all upgraded by 1 level, and that's all. The quality of meteorite iron is better than that of ordinary steel, but in special materials, it can only be regarded as average, and this battle is a bit of a loss no matter what.

"How's the situation with Lao Cao?" Li Ming found Jia Xu, Lao Cao's lair was invaded by Lu Bu, and less than half of the East County was left under his command, as well as the whole county of Jiyin County, and the three counties of Taishan, Donghai and Pengcheng that he had just gotten.

Kong Rong was also a beneficiary, and went south to support, but on the way back, Wu Anguo occupied Langxie County.

The five counties of Xuzhou, strictly speaking, when Tao Qian was there, also beat Pei County, Yuan Shu proclaimed himself Yuzhou Mu, and Pei County itself was under the rule of Yuzhou, so it seems that it is legally reasonable for him to take back Pei County.

The three counties of Pengcheng, Donghai and Taishan were taken by Cao Cao, Langxie County was taken by Kong Rong, Li Ming occupied the two counties of Guangling and Xiapi, and the huge Xuzhou was divided by the three forces.

If you want to say that the biggest benefit, it is estimated that he Li Ming, so that Yangzhou has a base in Jiangbei. At the same time, Zhou Tai can merge with Gan Ning to further cut off the connection between Jingbei and Jingnan, so that Liu Biao can't go south to rescue the four counties of Jingnan.

Even...... Li Ming looked at the map, Jiangxia County was obviously already within the attack range!

"The lord should not be concerned about Cao Cao, but about Yizhou ......," Jia Xu replied slowly.

"What's wrong with that old guy Liu Yan? Is Liu Ting self-reliant? Although Li Ming was ridiculing, his expression became solemn. According to Jia Xu's habits, if Yizhou didn't have a big incident, he wouldn't have bypassed Lao Cao's side.

"Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, died of a back sore a month ago, Liu Zhang blocked the news and secretly inherited Yizhou Mu, legally speaking, it can be regarded as self-proclaimed. It's just that his actions were not hidden from the imperial court in the end, the key is that the imperial court broke through the Baishui Pass in a very short period of time, drove all the way in, captured Chengdu three days ago, Liu Zhang was arrested and returned to Chang'an, and Yizhou officially returned to the imperial court. Liu Ting ordered Wei Qi to be the new Yizhou assassin history. Jia Xu replied, "Wei Qi is Wei Zhongdao's cousin. ”

"Wei Qi is only thirty years old, and he can already serve as a assassin?" Li Ming frowned, Wei Zhongdao's wife Cai Yan who had not passed the door is now Zhang Mo's daughter-in-law, and the two parties have become married, so they are said to be their own people. The rise of the Hedong Wei clan is obviously not what he wants to see.

"The Wei family is the first family in Hedong County to defect to the imperial court, and they are also regarded as the retainers of the Han Dynasty, without the help of the Wei family, it is impossible for the imperial court to easily subdue Hedong County, you must know that it has been operated by Dong Zhuo for a long time." Jia Xu replied.

After a pause, he continued: "Lu Bu's side is not easy, after Lu Bu entered Yanzhou, the imperial court brazenly launched an offensive against Hanoi, Zhang Xiu could not stop the attack of the horse, and had already retreated into Chenliu County, and Hanoi had fallen into the hands of the imperial court. However, Lu Bu's complaining about the heavens and people in Hanoi is also the key, and he can't live by himself. ”

"Will Yuan Shao watch the imperial army's army enter Hanoi County?" Li Ming raised his eyebrows, the imperial court controlled Hanoi County, and in the blink of an eye, it could directly and comprehensively pounce on the annexation of the state, which was definitely not what Yuan Shao was willing to see.

"Yuan Shao seems to have reached an agreement with the imperial court, and his nephew Gao Gan has already served as the governor of Bingzhou. Yuan Shao's main target is still Gongsun Chan of Youzhou, and this is also the key to reaching an agreement with the imperial court, and a few days ago, Gongsun Chan killed Liu Yu, proclaimed himself Youzhou Mu, and officially took over the military and political power of Youzhou, which is obviously not what the imperial court wants to see. Jia Xu replied.

"Hebei seems to be completely in the hands of Yuan Shao...... The west is almost under the imperial court, and Nanyang County in Jingzhou is already under the rule of the imperial court, and Nanjun and Jiangxia County are actually no different from those under the imperial court under Liu Biao. Jiaozhou is now in a power vacuum, and Peng Hu has to be allowed to go further...... Pang De and Zu Lang, as well as Zhang He and Huang Gai, also have to speed up the conquest of the four southern counties......" Li Ming muttered in a low voice.

Now Hebei and the west have been completely pacified, and there are still remnants of forces in Jiangdong and the Central Plains, but depending on the situation, a pattern of three parts of the world has been formed. The imperial court, Yuan Shao and Li Ming tripartite are only a matter of time. The key is the four forces of Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Kong Rong and Yuan Shu, in such a situation, where should they go?!

"The lord ......" Jia Xu further added, "Liu Biao had already resigned from the imperial court three days ago, and now he has given up his identity as the pastor of Jingzhou, and Sun Jian has succeeded him as the assassin of Jingzhou, and the southern counties and Jiangxia counties in the north of Jingzhou have also returned to the imperial court. ”

"X, Liu Biao is so cowardly!?" Li Ming immediately scolded.

"Liu Biao has completely lost control of Jingzhou after the war against the remnants of the South Vietnamese Kingdom, and the Cai and Kuai clans are aggressive, and he probably only took the opportunity to get out of this mess. It was not so easy for Sun Jian to completely subdue the Cai and Kuai clans, as well as others like Pang and Huang, and take over the military and political affairs of Jingzhou. Jia Xu replied.

"No wonder I want to put my eyes back first...... Indeed, it seems that it is impossible to continue the Northern Expedition at all......," Li Ming muttered, "Under the current circumstances, the four counties of Jingnan and Jiaozhou are our core focus!" ”

"That has to be next year!" Wang Yu walked in, "It's troublesome to mobilize manpower and supplies, and the south is more fucky than the north. eggs, the need for supplies from the Far North. In order to prevent any accidents, we must at least harvest in the autumn of next year and put the money and grain into the warehouse before we can consider making a move on Jingnan and Jiaozhou. ”

"Blame me? By the way, who are you around? Li Ming sighed helplessly and looked at the man beside Wang Yu. At first glance, this man had a ruddy complexion and strong limbs, and he was vaguely seven or eight points similar to Guan Yu, if it weren't for the fact that his beard was not as long as Guan Yu, I was afraid that Li Ming would still think it was Guan Yu.

"This is Wei Yan, a native of Xinye County, Nanyang County, born in a cold family, originally planned to join the army, but it turned out that Sun Jian's concubine Sun Lang was in charge of recruiting at that time.

Huang Zhong was also conscripting at that time, and he saw Wei Yan's extraordinary at first sight, and he wanted to be promoted directly, but considering that he was from a poor family, he had not systematically studied the art of war, and the practice of Qi and martial arts were also rude, so he recommended him to study for a period of time, which was his recommendation. Wang Yu introduced Wei Yan beside him, and then handed over Huang Zhong's letter of recommendation.

"Subordinate Wei Yan, I've seen Master Hou!" Wei Yan stepped forward and bowed to Li Ming.

"Since you have joined the army, then you are my subordinate...... I don't know what your aptitude is, but the academy has a detailed assessment method...... I don't look down on you, I'm also from a humble family! I hope that in the past two years, you can learn the art of war and strategy, and if you are talented, you will start in the position of military marquis in two years, how about it?! Li Ming asked.

"Subordinates meet the lord!" With Sun Lang's comparison, Li Ming's performance made Wei Yan very convinced, so he sincerely worshipped.
