"Book of the Later Han Dynasty": In the spring of the third year of Jian'an, Prime Minister Cao Ying, Taiwei Liu Bei, Yangzhou Mu Sun Ce, and Yuzhou Mu Guan Yu rebelled against the thief Yuan Shu. When Cao Ying raised 150,000 troops, Guan Yu raised 30,000 troops through Runan to attack Yiyang and Anfeng; Liu Bei raised 100,000 troops through Huainan below Guangling; Sun Ce raised 70,000 troops from Danyang to attack the Lujiang River.

The seven counties of Yangzhou were originally Danyang County, Wu County, Huiji County, Luling County, Jiujiang County, Lujiang County and Yuzhang. Now Sun Ce occupies all the boundaries except for Jiujiang and Lujiang, but Sun Ce divided several counties from Yuzhang and Danyang, newly established a Poyang County, and named his righteous brother Zhou Yu as the Taishou of Poyang, and trained the water master in Poyang Lake nearby, so this time, although the six counties in Jiangdong are missing a Lujiang, they are barely worthy of the name.

As for Jiujiang County, this is the only county outside the six counties of Jiangdong, although it is not as famous as the six counties of Jiangdong, but this is by no means because it does not have such weight. On the contrary, it is precisely because those six counties are not qualified to be compared with Jiujiang County. In terms of the total population, the total number of those six counties is only over one million, and Jiujiang County alone is nearly one million. Moreover, Jiujiang County is a grain-producing city, so Yuan Shu relied on Jiujiang County and Lujiang County and Anfeng Yiyang in Yuzhou, and accidentally gathered more than 300,000 people.

As for Shouchun and Hefei, they were originally two counties under the rule of Jiujiang County. Now Yuan Shu occupies Jiujiang County, with Shouchun as the administrative center, and to the east to the coast of the East China Sea, it is collectively called Huainan, which is probably the area from Huainan in Anhui to the east to Nantong in Jiangsu.

"I see!" Zhao Feng looked at the map for a long time, and then he figured out the terrain clearly, and then he couldn't help but admire Yuan Shu's courage: with such a little territory in his hands, he dared to encroach on the emperor, and he was really fearless for the ignorant; Then I couldn't help but admire Sun Quan a little: there was less than a state in his hands, but he actually supported a country.

At this time, it was already the end of February, and Liu Bei's three-way crusade against Yuan Shu's army was the smoothest. Yuan Shu didn't expect that Liu Bei would choose to attack the area to the east of him, and he was caught off guard in the first place. Moreover, those guards in the counties of Huainan were not Guan Ping's opponents, but they bullied him when he was young, and when he saw him challenge, he was cut off one by one. In addition, Ji Ling, the first fierce general in Huainan, also has a certain appeal, and many people were persuaded by him to surrender, but Liu Bei raised troops for more than 20 days, and almost all the counties east of Shouchun have been collected.

"The virtuous nephew is really a young hero, but in the twentieth day, even the eight counties of Huainan, of course, General Ji is also indispensable, come, let's all drink this cup together!" The successive victories also made Liu Bei feel very good, and he set up a small banquet in the army to reward everyone. As for attacking Shouchun now, Liu Bei is not that interested. You must know that Yuan Shu has hoarded an army of 150,000 in Shouchun, which is not a small number. Even if it is not an elite soldier, Liu Bei sent only 100,000 troops this time, and nearly 20,000 people remained in the eight counties of Huainan that he conquered, plus the reduction of the battle surname, and now there are more than 70,000 people on hand. If you want to rely on this person to attack the city, no one is so confident.

"Thank you, my lord, uncle, general, please!" Guan Ping and Ji Ling heard Liu Bei's praise, and they also hurriedly thanked them in unison, and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while. "Big brother, this reminds me of the broken yellow scarf back then, Zhang Jiao's gang was also trapped in Guangzong with more than 100,000 soldiers, and in the end it was broken by Lu Shangshu and them, and now Yuan Shu is afraid that he has embarked on this road." After three glasses of wine, Zhang Sanye was also full of emotion, and he began to recall the eventful years of the past.

"Yes, it's a pity that you and my brother left early and couldn't catch up!" Liu Bei also sighed. "Didn't you catch up early?" Zhao Feng was stunned, a little puzzled.

"You can't call it a failure." Liu Bei was in a good mood today, and his surname Suo talked about the old thing: "When it was said that my brothers gathered five hundred Xiangyong, followed Zou Jing, the captain of Youzhou, to Qingzhou to save Gong Jing, the assassin of Qingzhou, and then my two brothers and I went to Guangzong to help the teacher Shangshu order Lu Zhi to kill Zhang Jiao. ”

"Presumably, as soon as the lord arrived, Zhang Jiao was defeated?" Zhao Feng tentatively slapped the horse. I didn't want Liu Bei to cry and laugh, and then said: "I waited for Guangzong, and my teacher said that Guangzong was eager to take it, so I asked me to lead my troops to Yingchuan to help General Huangfu break Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang." I didn't want to lead my troops to leave as soon as Zhang Jiao fell ill and died, and as a result, the defenders of Guangzong were in chaos without a fight. And when I arrived in Yingchuan, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang had already asked General Huangfu to give me a level, and the two credits passed me by! ”

"There is such a thing!" Zhao Feng couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, "What about later?" "Zhao Fengsuo's surname is a curious baby." Later, in terms of meritorious deeds, Cao Ying and Sun Jian broke the Yingchuan thief soldiers, and the two of them Cao Ying were from a family of eunuchs, and Sun Jian spent money to make favors. As a result, Cao Ying sealed the Jinan Minister, and Sun Jian sealed the Changsha Taishou. I didn't have much credit, and I didn't have the money to make favors, so I was named the county lieutenant of Anxi. After being a poster for half a year, because of the extortion of the superintendent, he couldn't bear it anymore and beat him violently, and he couldn't even be a sesame petty official. In the end, if it weren't for Lord Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou, to take him in, I'm afraid my brothers and others would still be incognito and fleeing in all directions. ”

"I see!" Zhao Feng was also stunned when he heard this: Could it be that Lao Liu's reputation is so big, but his career was not smooth at the beginning. At this time, Liu Bei also stopped recalling, but he was still sighing: "Sun Jian became the Taishou of Changsha, known as the Jiangdong Tiger, but he didn't want to die later because of his private jade seal." However, his son Sun Ce is also a young hero, but he laid the foundation of Jiangdong in a few years; Not to mention Cao Ying, who is now the prime minister. Although I was an enemy, there is no denying that this man was a hero of his time! ”

"Heroes cherish heroes!" Zhao Feng sighed, this is the case between Cao and Liu. At this time, the scouts sent out had also returned from inquiring about the news. The combined forces of Cao Ying and Guan Yu had already captured Anfeng and were attacking Yiyang, while Sun Ce's Jiangdong army had already captured most of the Lujiang River.

"People from all walks of life are going well, it seems that Shouchun Jiancheng can be handed down." Liu Bei is also more optimistic. At the same time, Yuan Shu in Shouchun City was not so easy, "How can this be? Yuan Shu looked anxiously at the letter on the table in front of him. However, in just over 20 days, he lost little of his territory. What he didn't expect was that Jiangdong Sun Ce actually raised troops to fight against him.

"Sun Ce is a child, a wolf is ambitious. If I hadn't taken you in, would you have the status you have now? "Yuan Shu is a little crazy. Now the east has also been occupied by Liu Bei, and he has no way to retreat, so he has to defend Shouchun to watch the changes. Anyway, I have enough food and a lot of soldiers and horses, so it's not a problem to keep it for a year or two.

It's not that the mood inside and outside Shouchun City is different, at this time, under Yiyang City, in the coalition army of Cao Ying and Guan Yu, Cao Ying is conspiring with his henchmen Guo Jia and Jia Xu in his big tent.

"Wenhe, Fengxiao, what do you think of Yun Chang?" Cao Ying asked. In fact, behind the person, it is commensurate with the words, which is enough to see Cao Ying's importance to Guan Yu.

"The Tiger of the World!" Jia Xu has always spoken more concisely. "Guan Yunchang's surname is arrogant, but he is loyal, wise and brave, and he is a rare talent!" Guo Jia knows more about Cao Ying's surname, and knows that since he asks so, he has thoughts about Guan Yu.

In fact, it is exactly like this, these days the two armies have joined forces to crusade against Yuan Shu, Cao Ying and Guan Yu have had more contact, and they have more and more admiration for their talents, so they want to take it for their own use. But Guan Yu is loyal, and Cao Ying didn't know where to start for a while.

"It's really sighing that such a fierce general follows Liu Bei and can't be used by me!" Cao Ying sighed. At this time, Jia Xu stepped forward and said: "Lord, Jia Xu has a plan, or he can make Guan Yu available to the prime minister." ”

"Oh, Wenhe is coming quickly!" Cao Ying was a little anxious.

"The lord can take advantage of the fact that we are joining forces with Guan Yu to attack Yuan Shu, and treat Guan Yu with great courtesy. Moreover, among my audience, only General Xu Huang and Guan Yu have a deep friendship, and the lord can order General Xu and Guan Yu to have more contacts to connect with each other. Moreover, the lord can send people to Xuzhou to spread rumors, saying that Guan Yu has been in charge of Yuzhou for a long time, and he is not willing to be subordinate to Liu Bei anymore. With such a multi-pronged approach, Liu Bei will be suspicious sooner or later, and then the prime minister will say it with kindness and righteousness, won't Guan Yu be used by the prime minister? Jia Xu said slowly.

"Wen He's plan is very good, just act with this plan!" Cao Ying was also overjoyed when he heard this. Guo Jia thought about it and didn't think there was anything wrong, so he didn't say anything at the moment.

So in the next few days, although the military situation was tense abroad, Cao Ying still invited Guan Yu to the banquet, and at the same time, Xu Huang, a native of Hedong, also looked for Guan Yu to drink for three days, and the two were even brothers. At the same time, Xuzhou and other places suddenly spread rumors, Jundao Guan Yu broke away from Liu Bei for a long time, had a different heart, wanted to stand on his own, and even these news soon reached the ears of Liu Bei, who was waiting for Cao Ying's army to converge under Shouchun City.

"Big brother!" On this day, Liu Bei was discussing with Zhao Feng and Lu Su in the big tent, and suddenly Zhang Fei broke into the tent with a spear in his hand. "The third brother intends to attack the city?" Liu Bei only thought that Zhang Fei couldn't hold back for a few days and wanted to attack the city.

"The siege is small, big brother, and now everyone says that the second brother wants to stand on his own. Wait for me to go to Yuzhou to take him down and bring him back to my eldest brother! Zhang Fei said angrily.

"You shut up for me, Yun Chang and I have been brothers for many years, how can it be like this, you sit down for me!" Liu Bei shouted. "Big brother?" Zhang Fei looked at Liu Bei, who seemed to be excited, a little dumbfounded, and sat down with a long sigh.

"Why do the three generals need to care, it is expected that this is Cao Ying's plan to divide the world." Lu Su waited for Zhang Fei to sit down and said with a smile. "What does Zijing think?" Liu Bei asked eagerly, these messages these days also made him a little uncomfortable. Zhao Feng also looked at Lu Su with some surprise, this old brother really had two hits. He is a traverser prophet, knowing that Guan Yu will not betray, it is not easy for him to see it.

After all, what Lu Su said, let's see the next decomposition.
