Chapter Seventy-Two: All the way north, to Anhui County
At the beginning of the second year of Jian'an (197), just after the age of Jian'an, Yuan Shu was convenient for Shouchun to formally worship the emperor of the sky, build the name Zhongshi, place the Gongqing, and the northern and southern suburbs of the temple;
At the same time, he also recruited people and captured strong men to serve as soldiers, Yu Shouchun claimed to be an army of 200,000, but in fact more than half of them were just untrained people, and most of the rest were only county soldiers and slightly trained people, and the real standing soldiers were less than 50,000;
However, its momentum is huge, and the breadth of the states and counties under its name is also shocking to the world, and for a while, the princes of the heroes all stopped what they were doing and waited to see the changes in the situation in Jianghuai!
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Sun Ce to drive away Yuan Yin, who was assigned by Yuan Shu to guard Yuan Yin, and then persuaded Wu Jing, Sun Ben, Sun Xiang and other relatives to oppose Yuan Shu; Subsequently, Sun Ce sent troops to fight against Yuan Shu with Xuzhou Lu Bu and Chen Yu; But it didn't take long for Chen Yu to repeatedly attack Sun Ce's land, and Yuan Shuce rebelled against the people of Shanyue in Jiangdong and rebelled against Sun Ce, but at this time, Sun Ce's forces were different from the history of Liu Xiu's previous life, he had already pacified Tai Shici, Danyang, Huiji and other people, Chen Yu and Shanyue's sneak attack did not stop Sun Ce's crusade against Yuan Shu's pace at all, Sun Ce directly sent troops from Danyang to the north to approach Shouchun;
On the other hand, after Lu Bu also recovered his daughter who was going to marry Yuan Shu, captured Han Yin and sent him to Xudu, Yuan Shu was furious, so he ordered Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui and others to lead tens of thousands of troops to attack Xuzhou with Han Xian and Yang Feng; At this time, Lu Bu's soldiers were only 5,000, so he rebelled against Han Xian and Yang Feng defeated Zhang Xun and others, and then approached Shouchun;
At the same time that Yuan Shu sent Zhang Xun and others to attack Lu Bu, he also sent the generals Ji Ling, Li Feng, Liang Gang, Le Jie and others to attack Chen Guo, Dongbai and other places, which posed a threat to Xu Du.
At the same time, Liu Bei, who claimed to be a relative of the Han family and the queen of Zhongshan Jing, sent 1,000 troops from Xiaopei, and also went to Shouchun
At the same time, Yuan Shu naturally also received a letter saying that Liu Xiu sent troops from Panyang to the north to oppose him, and Yuan Shu did not pay attention to Liu Xiu, a child who had just risen for a year and defeated and drove Sun Ce, so he did not send his generals to block it, but ordered Liu Xun of Lujiang under his name to send troops to block it;
But although Liu Xun did not oppose him openly, he had no intention of helping him at all, so Liu Xun directly ignored Yuan Shu's order; What's more, he is adjacent to Liu Xiu, so he naturally inquires about Liu Xiu's skills, how can he be bored with himself, so Liu Xun directly ordered the cities to let him go
As for Liu Xiuke, he didn't care so much, he directly led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the north, and as soon as he arrived in Chaisang and other places, he used the excuse of 'Chaisang is under the rule of Panyang County', taking advantage of the time when Chaisang City and Liu Xun's command were released, he took all Panyang County, that is, Chaisang County, Pengze County, Liling County and other places, and left Yang Liulang and 10,000 soldiers to guard, and he continued to go north according to the original plan
At this time, Liu Xiu had already arrived near Anhui County, and Liu Xiu saw that it was not early, so he ordered the whole army to set up camp and make a fire.
In Liu Xiu's camp and the big tent of the Chinese army, Liu Xiu casually instructed the military affairs, and looked up at Liu Bowen who was drinking tea from time to time, and suddenly felt jealous in his heart, but helplessly, at this time, there was no one else around him who was better at military affairs than him, not to mention that he himself had to seize the opportunity to learn more about the experience of handling military affairs, so almost all the military affairs on this trip were handled by himself personally;
It didn't take long for Liu Xiu to hold on any longer, rubbed his neck and stood up, and said to Liu Bowen sourly: "Berwyn, is everything okay in the camp?" ”
"Don't worry, my lord, everything is fine in the army!" Liu Bowen understood, but still shook the feather fan, and said with a faint smile: "Although this place is not far from Anhui County, Liu Ye of Anhui County has not moved, and there are many scouts and spies, presumably Liu Ye is not worried about the lord, and is worried that the lord is interested in Anhui County!" ”
Hearing this, Liu Xiu put down his hand, twisted his neck, and thought: Liu Ye He knows that he is a descendant of Liu Yan, the son of Emperor Liu Xiu of the Han family, the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, the king of Fuling, as far as he knew in his previous life, this Liu Ye was a famous strategist of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period, young and well-known, known as the talent of the world, and was an important strategist under Cao Cao. Liu Ye was a veteran of the three dynasties of Cao Wei; No matter how you look at it, Liu Ye is a rare talent;
Thinking of this, Liu Xiu was suddenly extremely moved, now he is in the land of five counties, although it is southern, but the size is also a prince, even if he is from a lower background, he is also a member of the Han family; But up to now, in addition to the Wenchen military generals obtained in the system, they have only subdued a few shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and there is no one who can compare to Liu Ye and others; Therefore, now that I have met a Maxima who has not really met Bole, I naturally have some different thoughts!
Liu Bowen observed Liu Xiu's face, and guessed what Liu Xiu was thinking, so he suggested: "If the lord intends to subdue Liu Ye, why don't you go to Nawan County for a visit?" Let's take a look at this 'talent of the world' in Xu Zijiang's mouth?! ”
"Go to Anhui County?! Right now?! Liu Xiu was greatly surprised, you must know that even if Liu Xun has never been an enemy of him now, he has forcibly occupied his Chaisang and other places no matter what he says, is it really appropriate to visit him at this time?!
"Exactly!" Liu Bowen swore and said: "Now Anhui County is in charge of Liu Ye, not to mention that Liu Xun did not order troops to stop the lord, that is, the lord and Liu Ye are both relatives of the Han family, and in the name of sweeping away rebellion for the court, Liu Ye will not do anything to the lord!" Therefore, if the lord is interested in this person, it is okay to go and pay a visit! ”
Liu Xiu listened to Liu Bowen's words, and also nodded in agreement: In this era, there are really not many people like Dong Zhuo, most people value their reputation the most, and not many people will destroy their reputation for a little profit, or even let themselves stink for thousands of years
Thinking of this, Liu Xiu nodded and said, "It's okay, then I'll go to visit this 'Zuoshi talent'!" ”
After that, Liu Xiu summoned Zhang Oyster and ordered: "Zhang Oyster, you go and order a thousand brocade guards, and go with me to Anhui County to visit Liu Ye!" ”
Then he turned his head and asked Liu Bowen: "Bowen is willing to go with him?" ”
Liu Bowen smiled happily: "I want to do it!" ”
ps: This book is a novel, and it will exaggerate some troops, data, etc., and it will change slightly, so don't pay too much attention to small changes such as 'Tai Shici arrived under Sun Ce so early', 'Did Cao Cao and Lu Bu attack Shouchun City', 'Yuan Shu has 200,000 troops' and so on
The loss of troops in the war, I mostly use the word 'rout', so the loss of troops usually represents the number of dead + the number of seriously injured and incurable + the number of deserters, etc., not how many soldiers and horses are lost in the text, how many people died!
