Lu Bu's question was just thinking about it in his heart, even if he was alone with Jia Xu, he would definitely not ask.

Moreover, marrying Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao is also a dream in his heart, since he confirmed that he traveled to the troubled era of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, originally in the later life, as a normal man, the deep desire in his heart that has been suppressed has taken root and grown inexorably in the environment of this life.

Recruit beauties, enjoy the world's glamorous blessings, and be subject to the dual constraints of social morality and law in the future generations, there are still people who do not hesitate to take risks to try it personally, not to mention that in this world, there is no such constraint at all, everything depends on whether you have the ability, whether you have the ability, and whether you can marry these beauties openly.

It's just that now after Lu Bu thinks about it, it is a little different from the reverie at the beginning, recruiting beautiful women and enjoying the world's glamorous blessings, it sounds beautiful, but when it really works, it is actually very fortunate, one of the most significant examples is that the Son of Heaven who is the supreme of the Ninety-Five, the harem has three thousand beauties, which sounds very enviable, but in fact, there is also his helplessness and bitterness.

Therefore, Lu Bu has already decided that it is enough to be able to support the four beauties of Diao Chan, Cai Yan, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao in his arms in this life.

Marrying Cai Yan, now it seems that it is a certainty, Lu Bu is relieved, this matter has someone to handle on his behalf, just according to the etiquette, the young emperor has only died for more than a year, and the marriage is a little inappropriate at this time, so it is only according to the etiquette to start the operation, and there is still some time before the official marriage.

At the beginning of Guanzhong, the imperial court was square, and Lu Bu was in Chang'an, in fact, there were a lot of trivial matters, even if he fully let go of his subordinates, he was still very busy every day.

At this time, he was very eager to see Xiliang Hansui. or Liu Yan in Shuzhong, who can send a large army to attack and harass, so that he will have the opportunity to lead the troops to the expedition and stretch his muscles.

It's a pity that when he led a large army to besiege Chang'an, Xiliang Han lured Ma Teng to negotiate peace in the name of jointly sending troops, secretly poisoned Ma Teng, and gambled Ma Teng, although he captured the important towns of Longxi County Didao and Shouyang in one fell swoop. But he didn't expect Ma Chao to lead the army back so quickly, and the 1,500 elite cavalry were still unscathed, and finally Ma Chao gathered the remnants and blocked the front line of Xiangwu in Longxi, unable to break through to the territory of Hanyang County.

Han Sui took this opportunity. The desire to unify the entire territory of Xiliang was frustrated, and he faced Ma Chao. It's hard to get an inch anymore. If you want to threaten Guanzhong, it is even more out of reach.

Liu Yan in Shuzhong originally had high hopes for the alliance with Han Sui and Ma Teng, and sent Pang Xi and Zhao Wei two important ministers, but they were used by Han Sui without thinking about it, and in the end not only failed to form an alliance, but also offended Ma Teng and Ma Chao's father and son for no reason. It's hard to scream in a lonely palm. He will not send troops from Hanzhong to attack Guanzhong.

In this way, Guanzhong calmed down all of a sudden, the only thing Lu Bu could do. It was to warmly invite Ma Teng, who had been recuperating in bed, to come to Chang'an to settle down, first grasp him in his hands, and slowly try to subdue Ma Chao and take Xiliang.

When Guanzhong was calm, the situation in Kanto was becoming more and more erosive, and every day, the military information from Kanto was transmitted three times a day, and it was reported to Chang'an like flowing water.

Therefore, Lu Bu sat in Chang'an, but he was able to understand the changes in the current situation in the eastern part of the country, and the strategists who assisted Liu Bei and Cao Cao finally found out that it was Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia, whose names Lu Bu was very familiar with.

Both of them were young talents, and they came out of the mountain much earlier than Lu Bu remembered, and the only thing that surprised him was that Xi Zhicai did not serve under Cao Cao's account, but defected to Liu Bei's account.

Liu Bei jumped out of Qingzhou, after the attack on Puyang, coincided with the assassination of Liu Dai, Chen Liutai guarded Wang Hu, the soldiers were bloodless, all according to Chen Liu, after that, the army pointed out, it is Yuan Shu's territory, Yingchuan County, Yuzhou, is currently advancing.

Cao Cao's progress is faster, in Jiyin County to rule Tao, defeated Jiyin, Shanyang two counties coalition army, now has taken advantage of the victory to break into the territory of Shanyang County, capture Shanyang County Zhichangyi, has become a foregone conclusion, his biggest opponent in Yanzhou, is Taishan Taishou Ying Shao, after the capture of Jibei country, the front of the army turned, attack Yuzhou Lu State, this is also Yuan Shu's territory.

At this time, in Houqiu City, Donghai County, Xuzhou, where the government is located, has been regarded by Sun Jian as a big tent of the Chinese army, under the swaying of the lamps and candles, the messenger who came to report urgently has retreated, and everyone present is solemn and silent.

When Sun Jian, as one of the eighteenth princes of the Eighteenth Road who conquered Li Dao and Guo Yan, led the army north to Yique Pass, there were only four generals Huang Gai, Zu Mao, Cheng Pu and Han Dang, and after a series of battles, Huang Gai and Zu Mao were captured and committed suicide in front of the two armies, so that during the period in Yuzhou, he only had Cheng Pu and Han Dang.

Now, he gathered a lot of people under his account again, the veteran Cheng Pu and Han Dang, he stayed in Yangzhou, guarding Jiujiang County and Danyang County, and it was his eldest son Sun Ce who was present today, accompanied by Zhou Yu and his friend Lu Su, plus his nephew Xu Kun, the generals Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin recruited in Jiujiang County, and Zhang Hong, a strategist who invited him out of the mountains in Guangling.

The messenger was sent by Zhang Xun, a general under Yuan Shu's account, and he was ordered by Yuan Shu to lead an army from the East China Sea to aid the Lu State, where Taishan Taishou Ying Shaozheng led an army to attack.

This also means that Sun Jian has to fight alone, attack the East China Sea, and fight against the combined forces of Tao Qian and Kong Rong.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn, and everyone was originally sweating about Yuan Shu's situation, but now it seems that the situation is even worse than expected.

Yuzhou was besieged by Liu Bei, Ying Shao and Liu Chong, the king of Yuzhou.

After being silent for a long time, Sun Jian's voice was low, and he asked slowly: "Zhang Xun withdrew his troops and galloped to aid Lu State, Tao Qian Kongrong's reinforcements have arrived, what do you think?" ”

Just because Sun Jian asked, everyone present understood clearly or implicitly, and Sun Jian was already reluctant.

Zhang Hong leaned over and replied: "The lord Gao sees that our army is far away from Yangzhou, and the lone army is deep, even if it captures the East China Sea, it is also lonely in the north, and it is difficult to govern. ”

In these words, in fact, Zhang Hong still implied that some words were not explicitly said, but Sun Jian understood, today's Yangzhou, the state pastor is Chen Wen expressed by Yuan Shu, he is now only the position of riding the captain, the so-called "attack Yangzhou, and consolidate it, in order to be the foundation", the implicit meaning is to replace Chen Wen and completely control the military and political power of Yangzhou in his own hands.

From handing over the jade seal of the country, in exchange for an old and weak army, leaving Yuan Shu, Sun Jian has been firm in his mind to break away from Yuan Shu's control, since then, he has been constantly reflecting, and finally came to a conclusion, since he led the army north with the post of Changsha Taishou and met Yuan Shu, everything has been unfavorable.

At the beginning, he was too punctual in Changsha, and he had faintly received the support of the Taiban county guard in the eight counties of Jingzhou, if Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others were in turmoil, they led the army to the north, but fought steadily in Jingzhou, and now he is in charge of Jingzhou, it must be his Sun Jian, not Liu Biao.

When he lived under Yuan Shu's account, he originally thought that he could borrow the help of the old Yuan family to complete the great task of supporting the Han family, but he didn't expect that this was just his wishful thinking.

After listening to Zhang Hong's words today, Sun Jian couldn't help but feel a little emotional, lost his mind for a moment, came back to his senses, looked around at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, according to Mr. Zigang (PS: Zhang Hongzi Zigang), the army will pull out the camp tomorrow and withdraw south to Jiujiang." ”

Of the six counties in Yangzhou, only Jiujiang County and Lujiang County are located north of the river, and the remaining Danyang County, Wu County, as well as Huiji County and Yuzhang County, which have not yet been captured by Sun Jian, are all south of the river.

Sun Jian led the army north this time to attack Guangling County, Xuzhou, starting from Danyang County, and now the army is retreating, but it is going to Jiujiang County, the subtleties in the meantime, Zhang Hong's heart is clear at a glance, Lu Su, who has just become an adult, and Zhou Yu, who has not yet performed the crown salute, glanced at each other, and saw many meanings in each other's eyes.

Zhou Yu's face is like a crown of jade, Fengshen is handsome, the whole person is a beautiful young man, Lu Su is a few years older than him, his face is simple and elegant, just at the first glance, you will feel that he is a restrained and stable person, he is a person from Dongcheng, Jiujiang County, his family background is rich, and Zhou Yu and Sun Ce have always been friends, recommended by Zhou Yu, and put into Sun Jian's account to serve, from the fact that they can participate in this discussion, it can be seen that both of them are very valued by Sun Jian.

If Sun Jian can replace Chen Wen and govern Yangzhou, with the four counties of Yangzhou, plus a county of Guangling in Xuzhou as the foundation, it is enough to be a long and short with the world's heroes, and achieve a hegemony.

Zhang Hong thinks so, Lu Su thinks so, and Zhou Yu also thinks so, as for Liu Bian, the king of Hongnong who is far away in Taiyuan, or Liu Cong, the king of filial piety supported by Yuan Shu, they are not taken to heart at all.

They didn't know that at this time, Cheng Pu, the general of the town guard who was far away in Jiujiang County, was attending a banquet in the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, the host was Yangzhou Mu Chen Wen, and he was the only guest.

Yangzhou Mu Chen Wen is frequently raising his glass and warmly inviting Cheng Pu to drink.

Although Cheng Pu is a little unclear, but he still has a faint understanding in his heart, since the lord Sun Jian led the army north to attack Guangling County, Xuzhou, the state pastor invited him to the banquet every now and then, and usually gave various gifts, at first Cheng Pu thought that the state pastor was using this to show favor to the lord Sun Jian, but now he faintly felt that this matter may not be so simple.

Compared with Han Dang, Cheng Pu is more old-fashioned and serious, and he is usually moody and angry, and it seems that the city government is quite deep, so he has always been careful and gets along with Chen Wen.

After drinking, Chen Wen's face was already flushed, and under the candlelight, his face was even more red.

He put down the wine bottle and said to Cheng Pu: "The general has outstanding merits, wisdom and bravery, the lord has repeatedly mentioned it, and he is full of praise, it is also Wen's honor to have a general sitting in Jiujiang, come, Wen Zaijing General has a cup!" (To be continued......)
