It is said that Tao Ying has collected nearly one million trucks of gold from Yanzhou on this winter day, when the river is still frozen. With this gold, Pengcheng's treasury immediately became full. And when the money is saved, Tao Ying stipulates that the minimum storage period of the gold is one year. The reason for the exchange was that there were many bandits in the Battle of Guandu, and he had to protect the safety of gold and silver.

So now Tao Ying decided to let the battle of Guandu last as long as possible, as the breath of war became stronger and stronger, those richest people finally couldn't bear to deposit a large number of silver, gold, antiques and other things to the central bank of Xuzhou, this time just interest, Tao Ying could earn nearly fifty or sixty thousand taels of silver.

With the addition of those principals, Tao Ying decided to use the money to repay the money for repairing the river, and by the way, he doubled the shipyard. With money, you can recruit shipwrights and blacksmiths all over the world. Tao Ying's goal now was to produce at least ten large steam engine carriers, which would be responsible for selling all kinds of products produced by Peng Chengcheng to all parts of the Han Dynasty day and night.

Moreover, it is a time of war, and the price of grain will definitely skyrocket, and when the time comes, the grain in the Jiangtun area can also be sold at the opportunity. So the end of this year is the busiest time for Lu Su.

Time flies, and soon the spring of 200 years came, and this year was the beginning of the Battle of Guandu. By February, Tao Ying had already transferred one-third of Yanzhou's money to Xuzhou. At this time, Yuan Shao also led his troops into Liyang, and the battle was imminent, a battle of life and death, and finally Cao Cao compromised and returned 10,000 taels of silver to Tao Ying.

The two then met in Shanyang, and after the two sides met, Cao Cao signed a new treaty with Tao Ying. The treaty stipulated that in the Battle of Guandu, Tao Ying promised to defend the city, not to send troops to help Yuan Shao, and not to attack Cao Cao's hometown in Yanzhou. And the new condition in exchange is that Cao Cao will give the land occupied by Qingzhou to Tao Ying, so that Tao Ying can really own the entire land of Qingzhou. After obtaining Qingzhou, Tao Ying agreed with Cao Cao that in the battle plan, if Yuan Shao had an enemy who surrendered, Cao Cao would not accept it, and would hand it over to Xuzhou for disposal, including soldiers.

Now that Cao Cao is above the sword, and Tao Ying is the butcher, he has to agree. So after signing the contract, Tao Ying got two more counties. After getting the two counties, Tao Ying owned the entire Qingzhou. After getting Qingzhou, in order to allow Qingzhou to play a greater role in the battle of Guandu, Tao Ying decided to establish a new Qingzhou.

At present, except for Yangzhou, which is not complete, at least Tao deserves the land of two states. So who to appoint as the lord of Qingzhou, and then divide the soup in Guandu became a big problem.

At present, there are no generals in his hands who have served as the head of a pastor. After thinking about it, Tao Ying finally transferred Shanyang Taishou Zang Ba to Qingzhou Mu. The reason is that Zang Ba followed himself the earliest, worked hard and worked hard, and should be promoted. Moreover, Zang Ba has a good way of fighting troops, and he will definitely be able to get a certain amount of credit in the battle of Guandu.

Therefore, a letter of appointment was sent from Pengcheng to Shanyang, and Shanyang was too shou Zang Ba to summon the old department to go to Qingzhou immediately to take up the position of Qingzhou pastor. After Zang Ba left, Tao Ying took the Pengcheng to the Yellow River to station. How could you not participate in such an important battle? He's going to be there for the fun!

So in February, Tao Ying asked Zhang Zhao and others to guard Pengcheng, and then ordered Yu Ban to hold Huainan, beware of Sun Ce in the south from sending troops to attack Pengcheng. At the same time, in order to prevent Cao Cao from taking the opportunity to attack Pengcheng, Tao Ying ordered Bianjing to guard Quanrou and go south to command Shanyang County. In order to prevent Cao Cao from going south, Tao Ying used Quan Rou as the Taishou of Shanyang as the first barrier of Pengcheng, and Peiguo Lu Qian sat in Xiaopei as the second barrier.

In the west, there is Liang Guo Liu Xun and Yu Ban to jointly defend it, plus Nanyang Zhang Xiu, it must be not easy to hit Pengcheng at this time. So Tao Ying took his royal pioneers Zhao Yun, Cao Chun and others from the land to Qingzhou. By the beginning of March, Tao Ying had gathered nearly 30,000 elite soldiers in Qingzhou to guard the border.

In March, in order to be able to plunder the results of the Battle of Guandu, Tao Ying wrote to Cao Cao, saying that he wanted to protect his territory and seal the hills, so he raised 10,000 troops from Qingzhou through the Yellow River to Bianjing. After arriving in Bianjing, Tao Ying began to write to Yuan Shao, and then told him that Fengqiu was his own territory and should not be attacked.

Bianjing and Fengqiu are both the land of Tao Ying, which is the enclave of Tao Ying. In the past few years of development, the two cities have been built very tall, and Quan Rou has a great contribution. The most important thing is that this is Tao Ying's commodity transfer war, because of the war, Tao Ying temporarily gathered all the items in Yanzhou in Bianjing and Fengqiu. Then a large amount of grain and grass was hoarded here, and the grain and grass were transported by Tao Yingyu to be sold to the land of Sanqin.

Now, due to the impact of the war, he has to temporarily hoard in Bianjing. Tao Ying knew that in the battle of Guandu, the most important thing was grain and grass. If Cao Cao hadn't burned Yuan Shao's grain and grass, Yuan Shao would not have been defeated. Therefore, in order to make each other more durable, Tao Ying decided that when Xu You offered a plan to attack the Fengqiu north of Fengqiu, Tao Ying led the army to guard the grain and grass for Yuan Shao, and resolutely defeated Xu You's plan.

So Tao Ying wrote to Yuan Tan behind his back, asking him to tell Yuan Shao that he was willing to help him when the time came.

In March, Yuan Shao ordered Guo Tu, Chun Yuqiong, and Yan Liang to attack the white horse garrisoned by Liu Yan, the Taishou of Dongjun. Liu Yan's troops were weak and besieged by Yanliang County, and the situation was urgent. In April, Cao Cao led his troops to rescue Liu Yan. Xun Yu offered a plan, it was better to go to Yanjin first and pretend to attack Yuan Shao's rear. Cao Cao led troops to Yanjin, and Yuan Shao really divided his troops to respond, but at this time, Cao Cao suddenly sent Guan Yu to lead a raid on Baima.

In front of the two armies, Guan Yu Pegasus went straight into Yan Liang's camp, Yan Liang didn't know whether Guan Yu was an enemy or a friend on the horse, and when Guan Yu rushed to his side, he stretched out his hand and beheaded Yan Liang with a knife, and Yan Liang's army and horse suddenly became a mess. Until his death, this famous Hebei general still didn't know that he was beheaded by an unknown person like this!

Yan Liang, as a famous general in Hebei, is naturally extremely powerful, but he didn't believe it when he was killed, and someone actually entered his camp alone!

Defeated Yan Liang, as soon as Yan Liang died, Guo Tu and Chun Yuqiong hurriedly retreated, and Liu Yan kept the white horse. Yuan Shao lost his first general, and the soldier went back to tell Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao was furious, and heard that the person might be Guan Yu, Yuan Shao was about to behead Liu Bei in a fit of anger, but fortunately, Liu Bei cleverly deceived Yuan Shao.

In order to show his loyalty to Yuan Shao, Liu Bei led five or six thousand troops with Wen Chou to pursue Cao Cao. At this time, when the soldiers and horses pursued to the forty-mile road south of Yanjin, there were less than 500 cavalry left around Cao Cao. And Wen Chou, the general of the three armies, heard that the red-faced man who killed Yan Liang was not far ahead, and he chased after him!
