The letters, one after another, flew into Liu Mang's hands.

Liu Bei pacified Zhenrong and recovered Guangling and Xiapi, but lost the Qingzhou Plain and Jinan.

In order to avoid forming an enmity with Liu Bei, Cao Cao besieged Guan Yu and Xu Shu in Qi Mountain and negotiated with Liu Bei.

On the one hand, Liu Bei secretly mobilized troops, and once Guan Yu and Xu Shu encountered misfortune, or the negotiations broke down, he was ready to fight Cao Cao to the death.

On the other hand, Liu Bei actively engaged in diplomacy.

In the areas of Qing, Yan and Xu, there are many vassal states divided by the Han clan. Although the area of these vassal states is not large, their influence is not small.

Cao Cao had no excuse and used troops arbitrarily, and the surrounding princes and kings were very frightened and dissatisfied.

Liu Bei, through Kong Rong, the minister of Beihai who had a good relationship, and Kong Rong and King Kang of Beihai came forward, and successively contacted Liu Cheng, the king of Qi, Liu Shuo, the king of Pingyuan, Liu Luan, the son of King Xiao of Jibei, Liu Rong, the king of Langyashun, and Liu He, the king of Pengcheng.

Several princes and kings came forward, not only to support Liu Bei, but also to give Cao Cao face.

After negotiations, Cao Cao and Liu Bei finally reached an agreement.

Liu Bei gave up the plains and Jinan, and promised not to take the lead in using troops against Yanzhou, regardless of his previous suspicions.

Several princes and kings jointly went to the table to protect Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou, and also led the plains and Jinan.

The Yanzhou army withdrew from Le'an and Qi, made way of the way, and let Guan Yu and Xu Shu return to Xuzhou in the south.

At this point, the six counties of Qingzhou, the most important plain, Jinan, were under the control of Cao Cao.

The small area and small population of Le'an and Qi, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Kong Rong are not allowed to touch anyone.

In Beihai State, there is still the control of Kong Rong, the prime minister of Beihai State, and the remote and barren Donglai County is also managed by Kong Rong.

Cao Cao, without much effort, used the grain and grass provided by Yuan Shao. robbed Liu Bei's Plains and Jinan, and is undoubtedly the biggest winner.

Liu Bei, although he lost his territory. But with the land in the north of Qingzhou, which is powerless, in exchange for the stability of the entire territory of Xuzhou. More than what is lost, and still satisfied.

And Kong Rong mediated among them, and through negotiations, made Le'an and Qi a buffer place for various forces. For the time being, the stability of the North Sea is guaranteed, and it can be regarded as a winner.

……

Yanxu issue, quick talks, peaceful ending.

In the battle of Ji You, the speed of Gongsun Zhan's rout was not unexpected by Liu Mang.

Although Yuan Shao's Jizhou army was repeatedly defeated by the Bingzhou army, the combat effectiveness shown this time also gave Liu Mang a clearer understanding of Jizhou's strength.

And Liu Mang is most worried. It was the pressure brought by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao after the battle of Yanxu and Jiyou.

Yuan Shao solved the problem in the north, and Cao Cao not only seized the territory, but also stabilized Liu Bei in the south. Both of them have been relieved of their worries, and they will definitely set Liu Mang and Sili as the next target.

Yuan Shao's strength, Cao Cao's mind, the two are in the honeymoon period of the alliance. This alliance is undoubtedly the strongest combination in the world at present.

While facing the pressure of Yuan Cao, Liu Mang also had to face the pressure of Si Li's south, Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, and Zhang Miao's alliance.

Yuan Shu set up a separate imperial court. Open court.

Lu Bu Zhang Miao, with the support provided by Yuan Shu, was stationed in Dongjun Chenliu. The only good news is that Lu Bu Zhang Miao. did not pay tribute to Yuan Shu's puppet court, but still regarded himself as a prince of the Han Dynasty.

The two groups of Yuan Cao and Yuan Lu Zhang are both huge threats.

And Liu Mang's only ally is only Liu Bei, who is far away in Xuzhou.

Avoiding simultaneous repression by both groups is a top priority.

His subordinate staff once suggested that Lu Bu and Zhang Miao be entitled. to break up the Yuan-Lü-Zhang alliance.

But in this way, it is necessary to admit that Lü Bu and Zhang Miao's control of Dongjun Chen Liu, may be turned against Cao Cao because of this.

How to weigh and think hard.

In the end, Liu Mang decided to send envoys to various places to understand the attitudes of several surrounding princes.

Fang Xuanling was sent to Yanzhou and Xuzhou to meet with Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei respectively.

……

Liu Mang felt a lot of pressure, and Yuan Shu's life was not easy.

got a descendant of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, Liu Ren, pretended to be a ghost, and let Liu Ren get the jade seal.

At the beginning of the well-planned and established a separate imperial court, it did create a lot of momentum and ushered in a lot of cheers.

However, the Han Dynasty, after all, has a 400-year-old foundation, although it has almost become a rotten wood, if it is toppled, it will not be a short-term effort.

Nanyang, Yuan Shu's original nest, although it has a large population, is rich in products. However, the geographical location is very closed.

There are Qinling Mountains and Funiu Mountain in the north of Nanyang, Wudang Mountain in the southwest, and Tongbai Mountain in the southeast.

With this as the imperial capital, the radiation force is greatly affected.

In order to expand his influence, Yuan Shu set up the puppet imperial court in Shouchun, Jiujiang County, Yangzhou, where the transportation was more convenient.

Shouchun, located on the south bank of the Huai River, south of Shouchun, is an artificial large lake Shaobei.

Shaobei, named after Dujiangyan, is a large-scale water conservancy project organized and built by Sun Shuao of Chu Xiang in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Benefiting from Shaobi and Shouchun, the land is extremely fertile. However, at the end of the Han Dynasty, the war continued, and the population of Jiujiang County was less than 500,000.

In order to compete with the Luoyang court, Yuan Shu wanted to build Jiujiang into another Henan Yin, and Shouchun into a million-dollar capital city more prosperous than Chang'an and Luoyang.

Shouchun has a small population and migrates from other places!

In Yuan Shu's sphere of influence, there was never a shortage of population. Nanyang, Jingzhou, and Runan, Yuzhou, both have populations of more than two million.

However, large-scale migration of people will shake people's morale. Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital is a lesson from the past.

Nanyang and Runan are two fertile lands where Yuan Shu produces food and raises soldiers, and Yuan Shu is reluctant to dig a pit in his old nest, he has other plans.

In the north of Yuzhou, the two vassal states of Chen and Liang have a total population of 2 million.

These two places are not the foundation of Yuan Shu.

Moreover, because Li Tianyan assassinated Liu Chong, the king of Chen Min, Chen Guo, although this matter was secret, there was no impermeable wall, and the people of Chen Guo rumored that Liu Chong's death was done by Yuan Shu, and there were many complaints.

Yuan Shu calculated that the relocation of most of the people in these two places to Jiujiang would not only replenish the labor needed for Jiujiang Shouchun, but also weaken the resistance between Chen and Liang.

Yuan Shu gave this plan a nice name: immigration to Xingdu.

……

The largest direct flow of the Huai River, along the Yingshui River, tens of thousands of people, dragging their families and mouths, shouldering burdens, and trekking hard.

This was the first population to move from the state of Tran to Shouchun.

After the rain, the roads were muddy and slippery, and the people were miserable.

On the outside of the people's ranks, Li Tianyan's team, carrying guns and bows, guarded the migrating people like escorting prisoners.

A man with a burden on his shoulders, a dilapidated household item in the back, and a two-year-old child in the front.

There was a slip on his feet, a fall, the child fell out of the basket, the ground was muddy, and the child was not injured. The innocent child, thinking it was funny, actually giggled.

The mother on the side was frightened, picked up the child, and kept complaining about her husband. "I can't go on the road, look at my baby, what else can you do!"

was counted down by the woman, the man lost face, his face turned red, he slapped it over, and roared: "This egg road, am I willing to wrestle?" ”

The woman was beaten, and began to cry. "Don't let you live a good life, what kind of egg Shouchun will you go?"

The old man next to him hurriedly persuaded in a low voice: "The baby is not broken, go quickly." Don't you dare to cry and talk nonsense, let the person with the knife listen, it's terrible. ”

The man hurriedly grabbed the woman and whispered, "Don't howl, at night, quietly slip away." ”
