"Liu Bei's army was defeated by Yuan Shao in the area of Guangzong County, Julu County, and Yuan Shao's forces sent a cavalry general to cut off Liu Bei's grain route and force Liu Bei to retreat, the general is suspected to be the fierce general of the Sui Dynasty, Han Baohu!"

While Chu Tian suppressed the surrounding princes, he was also paying attention to the development of the princes further away. The princes of the states are trying to manage and expand their power, and they are secretly competing with each other.

The battle in the area north of the Yellow River was even more tragic, and Liu Bei and Yuan Shao were already fighting in Julu County. Yuan Shao was slightly better because of the help of Shi Wansui and Han Baohu, the generals who guarded Zhao Long in Wei County, with talent advantages and more soldiers, horses, grain and grass.

However, Liu Bei only retreated slightly, and it was not yet to the point of collapse.

The battle between Liaodong Taishou Mingguan and Liaoxi Prince Yan and Gongsun Zhan, Chutian also cared about it, and the outcome was not yet known.

"Order the Le Yi Legion, the White Robe Legion, and the Scout Legion to attack the Beihai Kingdom, put pressure on Zhao Gongzi, and demand him to surrender. If Zhao Gongzi surrenders, he can be given preferential treatment. In the future, it is okay for either side to be too guarded. ”

Chutian wanted to annex half of Qingzhou in a relatively peaceful manner. If you can obtain the three counties of Beihai Kingdom, Donglai County, and Qi Kingdom in Qingzhou, then Chutian will become a great prince with nine counties.

According to Fang Xuanling's Langya strategy, the Chutian forces should aim to conquer Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yanzhou, and occupy the territories of the four states.

"I don't know if Cao Cao will surrender, it's better to send someone to recruit Cao Cao."

Cao Cao, as a hero, if he can be recruited......

Although the probability was very low, Chu Tian sent an envoy to try to recruit Cao Cao, subdue a group of civil servants and generals under Cao Cao's command, and digest Cao Cao's territory.

"Chu Zimou is teasing me?"

Cao Cao received a letter of persuasion from Chu Tian, and Chu Tian, as a strange lord, actually wanted to persuade him to surrender a prince, and from then on he would be the front and rear of the saddle for Xuzhou?

Now Cao Cao still has three counties of Dongjun, Chenliu County, and Jibei Kingdom, and is assisted by the plotters Xun Yu and Wang Zuoxunyu, Cao Cao is unwilling to surrender and give up chasing the Central Plains.

However, Cao Cao had to admit that for a moment he was shaken, and he really wanted to surrender to Chutian.

He is just a Taishou, and his ambition has not yet swelled to the point where he must be the emperor.

Chu Tian's defeat of Zhao Gongzi and Yuan Shu made Cao Cao wonder if he could win against the powerful Xuzhou army. With three counties against six counties, Cao Cao had no confidence in himself.

Not only that, Chutian's ally Gongzi Wen now controls the two counties of Jiyin County and Shanyang County, and in fact, Cao Cao wants to deal with eight counties with three counties.

Even if Han Bai is reincarnated, it will be difficult to turn around in the face of the huge disparity in national strength.

Cao Cao asked Xun You's opinion on the surrender of Xuzhou Mu.

"Our subordinate officials can surrender to Xuzhou Mu, because Xuzhou Mu will still reuse us, but the lord has the ability and ambition, will the Xuzhou pastor rest assured to reuse the lord? If the lord goes north to attach himself to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao can also make the lord lead his troops to defend one side alone. If he surrenders to Chu Zimou, the lord can be placed under house arrest for the rest of his life. This is a world of difference, please think twice. ”

Xun You's words dispelled Cao Cao's thoughts of surrendering to Chutian.

With Cao Cao's ability and ambition, it is indeed difficult for anyone to regard him as a subordinate.

"Report! Yuan Benchu was helped by the Inhuman Lord in the Battle of Julu, repelled Liu Xuande, and occupied most of Julu County! ”

Cao Cao's camp also received the news of Yuan Shao's initial defeat of Liu Bei.

The last two high-profile battles in the Eastern Han Dynasty have been won or lost. Among them, the siege intentions of many princes south of the Yellow River to Xuzhou Mu Chu Zimou were thwarted, Chu Zimou won a complete victory, and Yuan Shu was almost wiped out. Yuan Shao's forces north of the Yellow River repelled Liu Bei and were on the offensive in all directions.

"It is worthy of Yuan Benchu, it seems that I can only defeat Chu Zimou by relying on Yuan Benchu."

Cao Cao was oppressed by Chutian, so he had to turn to the victorious Yuan Shao for help, reattached to Yuan Shao, and became Yuan Shao's vassal.

Whether it is Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu, there are many independent lords and tribes under the force, and Cao Cao can maintain his independence even if he surrenders to Yuan Shao.

In contrast, if he took refuge in Chutian, Chutian would completely take away all his territory, troops, and talents. Chutian did not allow independent forces under his command.

"Cao Cao wants to surrender to me?"

Yuan Shao defeated Liu Bei and gradually encroached on Julu County, becoming a lord with five counties, with a larger territory than Cao Cao and a stronger force, he received a letter from Cao Cao, Cao Cao was willing to become his vassal, and only wanted to defeat Yuan Shao and send troops to support him.

"If Cao Cao is taken as a vassal, the lord can have eight counties, far more than Chu Zimou's six counties, and the lord's influence can also reach the south of the Yellow River."

Zhao Long persuaded Yuan Shao to re-admit Cao Cao.

"I plan to go to the table for Cao Cao to assassinate the history of Yanzhou and fight against Chu Zimou. At the same time, I am the governor of Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou military. ”

In order to win over Cao Cao and expand his influence in the area south of the Yellow River, Yuan Shao included Cao Cao's three counties in his sphere of influence, and at the same time planned to get involved in Qingzhou.

"Qingzhou Plain Xiangtian Qi asks for attachment!"

"Qingzhou Donglai is too shou Zhao Gongzi to ask for attachment!"

After Cao Cao decided to attach himself to Yuan Shao, two other alien princes in Qingzhou requested to be attached to Yuan Shao's forces.

Among them, Pingyuan Xiangtian Qi controls Pingyuan County in Qingzhou, as well as the three counties of Jinan and Le'an, and Donglai Taishou Zhao Gongzi also controls three counties!

With their six counties attached, Yuan Shao's power swelled again, and there were a total of fourteen counties!

Yuan Shao won the battle of Julu, his prestige soared, and the princes from all over the country attached themselves to Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao surpassed Yuan Shu and became the first prince of the Eastern Han Dynasty!

Yuan Shao's power swept Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Yanzhou, shaking the entire Eastern Han Dynasty for a while!

All players have the illusion that all the princes are going to be attached to Yuan Shao, who is about to become the emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"Yuan Shao, how come you are from the Yuan family again......"

Chu Tian had just suppressed Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu's power had almost collapsed, and now a stronger Yuan Shao group had appeared, gathering the forces of fourteen counties.

The princes who were suppressed by Chutian fell to the camp of Yuan Shao, who allowed vassals to become independent.

These princes knew that if they took refuge in Chutian, they would be annexed, so they used Yuan Shao's power to form an alliance.

The brothers of the Yuan family are really uncomfortable.

Chu Tian was only slightly surprised in the face of the powerful Yuan Shao Group, and he didn't worry too much.

Yuan Shao's group was a loose alliance, in fact, it was still a small and medium-sized prince, even the five counties of Jizhou controlled by Yuan Shao in name, Wei County Taishou Wei Long accounted for a large share.

There is also a prince who has not received much attention from Chutian - Pingyuan Xiangtian Qi joined the Yuan Shao group.

Tian Qi and Zhao Gongzi are the only two remaining princes in Qingzhou at present, and they each occupy half of Qingzhou. Tian Qi was obviously also worried that after Chu Tian eliminated Zhao Gongzi, his territory would also be attacked.

Fang Xuanling heard that Yuan Shao's group had formed, so he proposed to Chutian: "Why doesn't the lord form his own alliance and confront Yuan Shao?" ”

"Childe Wen...... And Liu Bei? ”

If Chutian takes Gongziwen, who has two counties, and Liu Bei, who has four counties, to form an alliance, then there will be twelve counties, which can completely rival the fourteen counties of Yuan Shao's group.

"Gongziwen will definitely be on my side. As for Liu Bei, he had just lost to Yuan Shao, and he must be happy to join the alliance. ”

Chu Tian sent an envoy at random and used the teleportation array to envoy Liu Bei's Zhongshan Kingdom, allowing Liu Bei to interfere with Yuan Shao in the rear.

"Xuzhou Mu Chu Zimou still remembers me Liu Xuande?"

Liu Bei was surprised when he received Chutian's request for an alliance, and Liu Bei, who had become an enemy of Yuan Shao, quickly accepted the alliance.

Now Liu Bei's identity is only Zhongshan Xiang, which is far from the status of Chutian, Xuzhou Mu and General Anton. He joined Chutian's alliance, which could reverse the decline and boost morale. Yuan Shao wanted to eliminate him, and it was not so easy.

As the princes of the north and south of the Yellow River successively stood in line, two great forces were formed in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

A force is headed by Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao, with Cao Cao, Taishou of Dongjun, Zhao Long of Wei County, Zhao Gongzi of Donglai, and Xiangtian Qi of Pingyuan, with fourteen counties!

A force is headed by Mu Chutian of Xuzhou, with Jiyin Taishou Gongzi Wen and Zhongshan Prime Minister Liu Bei, with twelve counties!

In the middle of the two big forces, there are also some small princes with several counties and one county, and at this time, the two major groups are tense, and the small princes have no room for interference at all, so they can only wait for the opportunity to move.

"Chu Zimou forced Cao Mengde to join Yuan Shao, and even the princes of Qingzhou also attached themselves to Yuan Shao, it seems that Chu Zimou's army frightened many people. If it is now the Warring States Period, Chu Zimou is like a strong Qin, and the six countries will naturally join forces. It's a pity that Cao Cao, Zhao Gongzi and others are different from the stupid kings of the Six Kingdoms, they will not be broken by Zhang Yi. Only force can bring them to their knees. ”

When Lao Qin heard that the Yuan Shao Group and the Chutian Group had been formed in the Kanto region, the two sides were fighting non-stop, so he added fuel to the fire and suggested that Dong Zhuo appoint Cao Cao as the Yanzhou Assassin, Beihai Kingdom Zhao Gongzi as the Qingzhou Assassin, and Wei County Taishou Zhao Long as the Youzhou Assassin, intensifying the conflict between the two large groups.

The Kanto region is at war, and the old Qin is plotting against Dong Zhuo.

Situ Wang Yun and Lu Bu reached a conspiracy, as long as Dong Zhuo was killed, Lu Bu could take his place.

In Chang'an City, after the end of the normal court, Dong Zhuo's motorcade went to Beiye Gate.

On the city wall, Lao Qin and Jia Xu squinted their eyes and watched Dong Zhuo's convoy gradually approach.

Their conspiracy will completely change the pattern of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Jia Xu said: "This assassination of Dong Zhuo will definitely have a bloody storm. The battle between the Xiliang Legion and the Bingzhou Legion will lead to corpses all over the field. ”

"One will succeed in ten thousand bones, and those who want to achieve great things will not be informal."

Lao Qin was mentally prepared.

At present, Lu Bu, the highest-armed general in the Eastern Han Dynasty, is holding a Fang Tian painting halberd to protect Dong Zhuo's frame, and no one dares to assassinate him.

Dong Zhuo is old, a generation older than Cao Cao, and has lost his ambition to unify the Eastern Han Dynasty, and only wants to be in a safe corner.

When the convoy was only twenty meters away from the city gate, Dong Zhuo's subordinate and Lu Bu's villager Li Su led a group of rebels to rush out and attack Dong Zhuo's convoy!

The halberd-wielding rebels stabbed Dong Zhuo's carriage, and Dong Zhuo had to get out of the carriage to dodge.

Dong Zhuo was about to draw his sword, but Li Su stabbed him in the arm with a halberd, and the sword fell to the ground!

"Where is Lu Bu?!"

Dong Zhuo looked around in a panic and found that the city gate was closed, and Lu Bu was holding Fang Tian's halberd and was indifferent.

"You...... You guys! ”

Dong Zhuo immediately understood that Lu Bu, Li Su and other people from Bingzhou had betrayed him!

"There is an edict to beg the thief!"

Lu Bu took out the edict and used Fang Tian's halberd to stab his father-in-law to death!

Li Su saw that the wood had been completed, and led the rebels to kill Dong Zhuo's master and servants, and blood was splashed on the streets of Chang'an, and everyone was shocked!

"Lu Bu is really a good chess piece. Father and son. ”

Seeing Dong Zhuo's death, Lao Qin's mood did not fluctuate much. Dong Zhuo had no use value, so he had to ask him to die.

Jia Xu said: "Soon Chang'an will become a dangerous city, please return to Xianyang City immediately to clean up the mess." ”

"Please Wen He also go to Xianyang City with me, otherwise it will be dangerous."

"Not necessarily. Li Dao, Guo Yan and others are all from Liangzhou, and their subordinates have a way to persuade them. ”

"Then please be careful with Wen and everything."

Seeing that Dong Zhuo was dead, the old Qin left the dangerous Chang'an.

When the news of Dong Zhuo's death spread all over Chang'an City, Chang'an was alarmed, and there was an earthquake in Guanzhong!

Situ Wang Yun quickly spread the message to pacify the gates of the city and recruit the soldiers and horses defending the city.

Wang Yunlu Shangshu affairs, in charge of the government, and at the same time appointed Lu Bu as the general of Fenwu, the fake festival, the three divisions of Yibi, into the title of Wenhou, and the same government in charge!

Lü Bu wantonly appointed Li Su, Gao Shun and other generals and soldiers of the Bingzhou Army.

Jia Xu took the opportunity to make a statement to Wang Yun, suggesting that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Legion be disbanded, and the power of the Xiliang generals should be cut to avoid the repetition of the unruly Xiliang Legion.

Lao Qin even chased the wind and shadows in the entire Guanzhong, and it was rumored that Wang Yun and Lu Bu wanted to kill all the people of Liangzhou.

The three of them became tigers, Niu Fu, Li Dao, Guo Yan and other Xiliang legions believed the rumors, gathered the army, swore to march, attacked Chang'an City, and avenged Dong Zhuo!

Originally, the Guanzhong area controlled by Dong Zhuo was quite calm, but as soon as Dong Zhuo died, the Guanzhong area was in flames and the war was non-stop!

The arrogant Wang Yun and Lu Bu were attacked by the fierce generals of Xiliang's arrogant army!

The Xiliang Legion had a large number of second- and third-rate generals and elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and the Bingzhou Legions such as Lu Bu and Gao Shun suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Luoyang.

When the Bingzhou Legion and the Xiliang Legion fought, they realized that the Inhuman Lord of Xianyang City, Zhen Lao Qin, had an elite army, so they asked for help from Zhen Lao Qin.

The standing of Lao Qin will depend on the ownership of Chang'an City!

"Tell them that I won't support either side and I won't sneak up behind my back."

Old Qin stood on the wall of Xianyang City with his hands in his hands, and he could already see the beacon fire of Chang'an City. The Bingzhou Legion and the Xiliang Legion fought and suffered countless casualties.

"Lord, Li Ru asks to see."

"Let him come to me."

Soon, a strategist who escaped from Chang'an City came to the city wall in embarrassment, pointed at the old Qin and asked: "It must be you, you are manipulating everything behind your back!" Dong Zhuo was killed by you, and Jia Xu is also your person! ”

"Li Ru, Dong Zhuo is dead, why be indignant about a dead man? Since you can get out of the city alive, it means that you should not die. It's better to be loyal to me, we have to look at Shu and chase the Central Plains, wouldn't it be much better than Dong Zhuo staying in the pass for the rest of his life and waiting for death? ”
