On the twenty-third day of the first month of the third year of the early peace of the Han Dynasty, Yangzhou Mu Yuan Shu, Lujiang Taishou Sun Ce and Wu County Wang Lang gathered 80,000 troops in addition to leaving the necessary garrison, and after converging in Anfeng County, northwest of Yangzhou Lujiang County, they set off from here to point out to Yuzhou.

In particular, it should be mentioned that Wang Lang of Wu County was originally equivalent to a "rebellion" in Yuan Shu, who claimed to be the pastor of Yangzhou, but with Sun Ce's sponsorship and Cao Cao's personal lobbying as the leader of the alliance, Yuan Shu temporarily put aside his prejudice against Wang Lang, and he and Liu Miao entered the alliance together, and at this time, he also brought 10,000 soldiers and horses to advance into Yuzhou with Yuan Shu and Sun Ce.

Of course, among the three parties, Yuan Shu is the strongest, and he is usually the main one, but because of Lu Bu, the nominal deputy leader of the alliance, even if they are dissatisfied or unwilling in their hearts, they dare not ignore Lu Bu when they are deliberating, and they must try to listen to his opinions, of course, Lu Bu often does not interject, and they discuss and decide by themselves.

But when the army finally entered the territory of Yuzhou, Yuan Shu and Sun Ce finally couldn't bear it, and came to Lu Bu to ask him that he could find a way to deal with Li Yu's 100,000 Xiliang army.

Who would have thought that Lu Bu was still selling mysteries at this time, but he just let Sun Ce and the other three rest assured that they would boldly march to Yuzhou.

Yuan Shu was a little undecided, Wang Lang watched from the wall, as if it was none of his business, but Sun Ce was hot-tempered, and when he saw Lu Bu's face, he was even more angry, feeling that he might not be able to bear it after all if he stayed here any longer, so he simply asked for an order to lead the army to take the first step and go to the vanguard to test the enemy's movements.

It's just that when he left, he still dropped a sentence: "Lu Fengxian." I hope you can do what you say, otherwise there will be no place for you in the whole Han world--go somewhere! ”

At three o'clock in the afternoon of the twenty-third day of the first month, Lujiang Taishou Sun Ce led 10,000 soldiers and horses to rush to Yuzhou, relying on the courage of the two tigers of Lujiang and Sun Ce in the Ming, Tai Shi Ci in the dark or vice versa, the combination of virtual and real strategy all the way to march frantically, actually presented a crushing situation against the defenders of Yuzhou, when the march to Ruyang County, Runan County, only to be met with strong resistance from a Xiliang army stationed here, and the main general of this army and horse is Fan Chou.

The enemy army was only a few thousand, and Sun Ce's army was 10,000. And with the bravery of Sun Cejun. Naturally, he was able to win a big victory, but Fan Chou and Sun Ce fought alone for more than ten rounds and were defeated, and left in a hurry with hundreds of remnants.

Sun Ce would not let go of the remnants of the defeated army of Fan Chou and his party, and only chased after him with more than 1,000 light horses. Not wanting is a trick to lure the enemy. It was not too Shi Ci to arrive in time to save Sun Ce. I am afraid that Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, will be killed, and the enemy army will be ambushed under the thousands of ambushes and arrows on both sides of Fan Chou's escape path.

After that, the two sides confronted each other across Ruyang, but only because of this, Runan County in Yuzhou also basically fell. Controlled by the Alliance.

Yuan Shu led the army to arrive "in time" at this time, and sighed that Sun Cejun should be a model for the alliance, this kind of cat crying mouse behavior made Sun Ce almost fall out with him on the spot, but he happened to be stopped by Lu Bu who came with Yuan Shujun.

"Lu Fengxian, the grudge between you and a certain has not yet been settled, and you dare to stop me here?" Sun Ce, who was protected by Tai Shi Ci, stared at Lu Bu with his eyes, and his eyes were flushed with red threads, showing his fierce love and anger.

Lu Bu waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "This ...... How could it involve Ben Hou again? ”

Sun Ce said coldly: "If I didn't listen to your words, how could I lose so many good sons and daughters of Jiangdong in vain this time?" ”

Lu Bu shook his head, "This is Bo Fu's own decision, you didn't force it, not to mention that according to Ben Hou's discovery, the reason why Bo Fu caused such losses this time seems to be because of the enemy's ambush, right?" ”

Sun Ce was dumbfounded for a while, he was not a person who shirked his responsibilities casually, but he was in a hurry just now, and he lost so many subordinates, and he was full of anger and also needed to find an outlet, and he happened to meet Lu Bu coming, so he naturally found this murderer.

At this time, Lu Bu's face suddenly changed, "As for the 100,000 military horses of Xiliang who said before that they would settle this Li Yu, since they have already said that, Ben Hou has fulfilled it, but it will not be now." I heard that Meng De's side had only just marched to Ningyang, Dongping, and had not yet fought Xu Rong, so why should we be so anxious? ”

Yuan Shu frowned, and said disapprovingly: "Of course, this matter is the best, if you can solve the trouble in Yuzhou early, you can rush to help." ”

Lu Bu was silent for a moment, and finally said, "Tomorrow...... Tomorrow morning, we can attack Chen Guo. ”

On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, the morning fog was suppressed, and Zhang Ji, who was stranded in Xinping County, Chen Guo for recuperation due to occasional cold, was assassinated under the protection of heavy guards.

The biggest suspect in the assassination is the song and dance girl recruited by Zhang Ji from the nearby local Song Ji Academy, this Zhang Ji adheres to the "fine tradition" of the Liangzhou Han, since entering Yuzhou, often all night into joy, and most of them are looking for people in the local Song and Dance Ji Courtyard to accompany them, saying that "sleeping all over Yuzhou" is a bit exaggerated, but there is also this trend.

Naturally, one of the major consequences of indulging in alcohol is that the whole person is almost hollowed out, the body bones are getting weaker and weaker, and he is becoming more and more unable to withstand the wind and rain and the changing seasons, otherwise if his military general's body is in a healthy state, how can he be so easily infected with wind and cold.

And even when he was sick, he didn't forget to look for the singer, and after this incident, the women who were recruited by Zhang Ji that day were nowhere to be found, which became the biggest suspicion, but the singer's courtyard was still well preserved, Zhang Ji's subordinates went crazy and searched the whole county, and before that, they turned the singer's courtyard upside down, and almost didn't dig three feet into the ground, but in the end they found nothing.

Under local pressure, the generals under Zhang Ji did not dare to deal with this singing and dancing temple that seemed to have a background in Chen State and even Yuzhou, so they had to send troops to defend it first to prevent rebellion.

Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Iron Cavalry is claimed to be 200,000, the actual number is slightly less, and it is just 100,000 in Yuzhou, but the 100,000 Xiliang Army cannot be monolithic, especially Li Yu, Guo Yan, and Zhang Ji, these three people are generally old under Dong Zhuo, only Fan Chou is slightly inferior, and none of them are convinced.

Dong Zhuo may not be at ease with handing over all the 100,000 troops and horses to one person, so in fact, the 100,000 army is subdivided into four teams, among which Li Yu, Guo Yan and Zhang Ji are the oldest and have been operating in the Xiliang Army for the longest time, so their forces are naturally the largest, and they can balance each other; The remaining Fan Chou is relatively weak, and has always been below Li Yu and Guo Yan in the Xiliang Army, and he will be a head short of him when he encounters it.

And because of such a distinction, as soon as Zhang Ji died, the tens of thousands of Xiliang troops under his command were Li Yu, and the three of them did not dare to say that they could control it, let alone touch it casually, who knows if it would arouse Dong Zhuo's suspicion, so as soon as Zhang Ji died, although the tens of thousands of horses under his command were not in chaos, they fell into a situation where the dragons were leaderless.

Speaking of which, it is by no means as easy as imagined to kill these Xiliang generals, not to mention that they generally pay more attention to their own safety, and the strength of the guards around them will naturally not be weak, and they usually have their own personal soldiers, not to mention that they usually stay in the barracks, in this case, the difficulty of doing something to them is not much different from the difficulty of taking the head of the enemy general in the war.

Just like this Zhang Ji, guarding layer by layer around the house where he was recuperating, the strict protection was that Lu Bu didn't dare to say that he would be able to take it down, and if he wanted to take his life, maybe only the singers and dancers who could get close to him could easily do it.

And it just so happens that Lu Bu's subordinates also have such personnel, and that is the women's group that Diao Chan's subordinates have been constantly developing.

In normal times, they disguise themselves as Kabuki, or inquire about news, spy on intelligence, and assassinate if necessary, just like this time.

Of course, it is not realistic to want to cause chaos in the tens of thousands of troops under his command just by killing Zhang Ji, after all, there are also layers of division within the Xiliang Army, and the captains below Zhang Ji also have a certain degree of control over the officers and soldiers under him, Zhang Ji's death will cause commotion and instability in the army's morale, but it will not cause chaos.

But when Yuan Shu and Sun Ce led the army to Chen as Lu Bu said, they found that it was already a mess for some reason; And at this time, they heard another shocking news from Bailing in Ruyang County, Fan Chou, who had fought with Sun Ce once before and relied on ambushes to repel Sun Ce's army, died......
