(I feel very uncomfortable, but I don't want to say anything, I can finish the book, thank you for your support) Huaxia 196, the Battle of the Sword Pavilion broke out continuously in early November, the offensive of the Tianci Army became stronger and stronger, and the losses of the coalition army also rose in a straight line, and even Sun Ce, who was the main general, went into battle many times to resist the Tianci Army, so you can imagine how bad the situation in the Sword Pavilion is at this moment. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Wenshan County also took a new turn for the better, and the Tianci Army, under the leadership of Dian Wei, captured Wenjiang City, an important stronghold of the enemy. As a result, Gongsun Chan lost thousands of soldiers and horses, and as a result, the balance of victory in the Battle of Wenshan was more and more tilted towards the Tianci army.

Huaxia 196, mid-November.

On the Shouchun side, Cao Ren, the general of the Cao clan, was seriously wounded by Yan Liang in the battle to defend the city. Although Gao Shun's troops did not join Liu Tai, the generals had already arrived under Liu Tai's account to obey orders, among which Yan Liang, Gao Shun, and Hua Xiong naturally did not lack any of them.

Under the attack of the Tianci army, Shouchun was in tatters on all sides, and the second batch of gunpowder was also transported from the waterway, and it was about to reach the front line, if the Cao army could not come up with a way to break the siege, as soon as the second batch of gunpowder arrived, the Cao army would definitely collapse!

In terms of Hefei Yuan Jun, it is surprisingly calm, Yuan Shao has been scared by the Tianci Army, and now that he has escaped from the encirclement of the Tianci Army, it is naturally impossible to bump into it like a fool, but as a member of the alliance, Yuan Shao cannot sit firmly in Diaoyutai, otherwise, it will be a little too much to say on face.

In fact, Cao Ying's reinforcements were still quite a lot, there were 60,000 sailors on the Jiangdong side, and many troops on the Jiangxia side also galloped in. It adds up to about 100,000. If Yuan Shao in Hefei is counted, then there are nearly 2560,000 soldiers and horses. (In Yinling, Yuan Shao lost about 50,000 soldiers and horses) but the situation is not good, Jiangdong's reinforcements were stopped by the Tianci army sailors, the situation is still unclear, and Jiangxia does not dare to act rashly, if Shouchun is lost, Cao Ying wants to continue to fight with Liu Tai, must retreat to the south bank of the Yangtze River, and Jiangxia is indeed the only choice, if he loses Jiangxia, then Cao Ying really wants to become a fish on the shore, and he can't jump.

As a result, Cao Ying's only reinforcement was only Yuan Shao, a former rival. Yuan Shao has an army of 150,000, although his combat power is low, but after all, there are 150,000, right? Even if there are 150,000 head of cattle, it can't be killed at once, let alone 150,000 troops?

If Yuan Shao can let go of his scruples, lead the army to harass on the periphery of the Tianci army's encirclement, and even open a gap for Cao Ying in Shouchun City, then there will definitely be a big flaw in the defense line of the Tianci army, and Cao Ying's life path will naturally appear at that time.

The battle of several months has caused Cao Ying to suffer heavy losses, but at present, Cao Ying can fight at least 200,000 soldiers and horses, and with 200,000 troops to attack the Tianci army, not to mention defeating Liu Tai, at least Liu Tai can drink a pot, right?

It's a pity that Yuan Shao obviously won't joke about his 150,000 army. The reason why Yuan Shao did not fall at this moment was because he still had an army of 150,000 in his hands, and if this 150,000 army was gone, then Yuan Shao would really be useless.

It is worth mentioning that at this moment, Yuan Shao has already made plans to withdraw from the north bank of the Yangtze River. In other words, Yuan Shao is going to Jiangdong or Jiangnan to develop, but these two places are both mastered places, and Yuan Shao can't think of a good way to occupy the magpie's nest for a while.

Of course, it is impossible for people to be suffocated by urine, since they can't think of a way, then let others think about it, for example, now, Yuan Shao openly sent a letter to Liu Bei, which noted the current situation in Shouchun and the lack of optimism about the coalition army, and in order to ensure that there is a living force to wait for the day, Yuan Shao hopes that Liu Bei can cede a piece of land for Yuan Jun to recuperate.

It was difficult for Liu Bei to refuse Yuan Shao's request.

Although Liu Bei knew that Yuan Shao was a wolf, if he introduced this wolf into his back garden, it would be possible for the dove to occupy the magpie's nest. But Liu Bei couldn't refuse, because Liu Bei also understood that if the current princes couldn't be wholehearted, they would definitely not be able to resist the heaven-sent army, and Yuan Shao would definitely pay a terrible price if he wanted to covet Jiangdong.

At the same time, Liu Bei solicited the opinion of Kong Yun, the chief military advisor under his command.

Kong Yun agreed to Yuan Shao's entry into Jiangdong for cultivation, but Kong Yun also hoped that Liu Bei would ask Yuan Shao that Yuan Shao would be self-reliant in terms of some military food and materials, Jiangdong could not afford to raise Yuan Shao's 150,000 army at present, if he could really afford it, Jiangdong could recruit on his own, did he still need to let Yuan Shao enter Jiangdong?

As for the land cution, Kong Yun thought that it would be more appropriate to hand over the three county towns of Juchao, Xiang'an, and Linhu around Chaohu in Lujiang County to Yuan Jun. These three places are relatively wealthy, and because of the proximity to Chaohu Lake, Yuan Jun can fish by himself to fill the army rations, and most importantly, this place is the only place where the Tianci army continues to go south, if Yuan Shao is really willing to be stationed in Chaohu, then why not have a goalkeeper in Jiangdong?

Of course, Liu Bei would not refute Kong Yun's plan.

And in order to make Yuan Shao unable to find fault, Liu Bei expanded the originally envisioned three county towns to six county seats, that is to say, Liu Bei gave half of Lujiang to Yuan Shao, if Yuan Shao is not satisfied, then it is really impossible to say.

Of course Yuan Shao was satisfied, but Yuan Shao was not a fool, knowing that after entering Chaohu, he would be subject to Liu Bei, and if he didn't want to be subject to Liu Bei, he could only ensure that Yuan Jun's existence had a long-term supply of grain and grass. Therefore, Yuan Shao gave full play to the right of the master of the first gate valve, and invited the gate valves from all over the world to come to Hefei to gather, and put forward some acceptable requirements to the gate valve clan.

The gate lord clan that can be invited by Yuan Shao is almost all the outright opposition of the northern Xinjiang regime, if Yuan Shao wants them to go to the front line to die, maybe these gate lord will hesitate, but Yuan Shao only wants some money and food, and the gate lord clan will naturally not refuse. You must know that if the Tianci army captures the area where the gate lord clan is located, then the countless grains of the gate lord clan will still be cheaper in the end, so why not fight? Maybe some miracle will happen

Huaxia 196, early December.

Just when the Battle of Shouchun was extremely tragic, Yuan Shao ordered the people of several surrounding counties in Hefei to be forcibly moved to Lujiang, and also emptied several granaries of the Cao army.

Of course, Yuan Shao is not a fool, he occupies other people's land and takes other people's grain, if he doesn't make a show, isn't it too much to say? Therefore, Yuan Shao decided to personally lead 100,000 troops to open Shouchun and do his best to save the allies from danger. Well, in fact, Yuan Shao only took 50,000 people, and he was also the weakest group in Yuan's army.
