Chapter 404

As He Shen nodded, dozens of men in Tsing Yi who followed the potter rushed out collectively and rushed towards Liu Bei.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked bad, they stepped forward together, and Guan Zhang and the two of them shot collectively, and their fate can be imagined.

The dozens of men in green clothes who rushed up didn't last a few rounds before several people were killed.

Others saw that the situation was not good, and distanced themselves from Guanzhang.

When Zhang Fei saw them retreating, he was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Guan Yu.

After all, these men in Tsing Yi have an advantage in numbers, and it would not be good if they rushed through the blocking circle of the two of them.

"Pottery merchant, Xuande Gong is the assassin of the imperial court, especially the angel, you dare to openly assassinate the history, come and take them down for me." Cao Bao on the side roared loudly.

The guards outside the door, after hearing Cao Bao's roar, walked in from outside the door.

They were just about to step forward to take down the potter and others, but they were stopped by Liu Bei.

"Tao Gongzi is sad to lose his father and misheard rumors outside the city, it shouldn't be like this." Although he wanted to kill the pottery merchant in his heart, he still had a smile on his face, "Now that Tao Gong has just gone, it is imperative to let Tao Gong enter the earth first." ”

Although the potter is a gentleman, he is still in his thirties, so he can naturally recognize that the current situation is not good for him.

"Humph!" He snorted coldly and left directly, ignoring his father's funeral.

Those big men in green clothes also carried the bodies of their companions and left here together.

He Shen, who was hidden in the crowd, also left.

Before He Shen could enter the potter's residence, he heard the potter's angry voice.

"He Liu Xuande was canonized by the imperial court, just when my father died, if there is no conspiracy, who can believe it, am I really a fool?"

'Yo! That's smart, hey! Did I teach it, it looks like I have to restrain myself, alas! He Shen thought to himself, and then pushed the door and walked in.

"Childe is wise, there are no such coincidences in the world, unless it is premeditated." He Shen came up and praised the potter first, "Looking at today's situation, I'm afraid those families are also involved!" ”

The potter's brows furrowed, and his face shimmered, "If the family is also involved, how can I avenge my father if I am alone." ”

'Avenge the Father? I'm afraid it's to take Xuzhou! He Shen hummed a few words in his heart.

"Childe, we can recruit foreign aid and jointly crusade against Liu Bei."

"Foreign aid?" The potter asked, confused.

"That's right, Qingzhou Li Yang is known to be virtuous, I heard that when he was in the Tiger Prison Pass before, he was on good terms with Tao Gong, as long as he explained the matter to him, he would definitely help."

The potter pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, isn't this luring a wolf into the room." ”

'I'm going, I'm getting smarter?' He Shen was stunned, but reacted in an instant.

"Gongzi can agree with him, as long as his soldiers and horses are stationed on the Qingxu border, and the family troops and Naguan Zhang are transferred out of Tancheng, we can take the opportunity to get rid of Liu Bei, without Liu Bei, what can they do."

The potter's eyes lit up, and he shouted 'yes', "Send someone to contact Li Qingzhou immediately and ask him to help me." ”

'Hooked!' He Shen was delighted, but said calmly on his face: "If you are willing to go this for your son, you will definitely persuade Li Qingzhou." ”

"Okay, then it's hard work Mr. Shen!"

He Shen is known as Shenhe here, but only a few potters know about it.

"I still need Gongzi to write a letter in person, explain the reason, and then bring the evidence with me, I believe Li Qingzhou will definitely help."

"Okay, I'll write it right away!" Without any hesitation, the potter wrote a letter asking for help.

This letter, together with all kinds of evidence, was put in front of Li Yang within seven days.

Looking at this long-lost letter, Li Yang slapped the table and applauded.

Immediately, according to the previous arrangement, he copied the letter together with a copy of all the evidence, and personally wrote a letter and sent it to Chang'an.

After all, he is a Qingzhou pastor, if he sends troops to Xuzhou, it is best to have the righteousness of the imperial court.

Of course, even if there is no order from the imperial court, Li Yang will not hesitate to send troops, but it will have a certain impact on his reputation at that time.

After a light ride and a fast horse, this letter reached Dong Zhuo's hands in half a month.

Originally, Dong Zhuo didn't plan to pay attention to it, after all, he hated Li Yang to the core.

However, his son-in-law Li Ru suggested that he agree to Li Yang's request.

The reason is very simple, that is, let Li Yang and Liu Bei compete and lose troops, and other princes who are eyeing each other will definitely not stand idly by.

If Li Yang's loss is too large, he may be swallowed up by other princes.

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he heard this, so he agreed to Li Ru's suggestion.

Dong Zhuo's words are even much better than that of the little emperor.

Therefore, after Dong Zhuo nodded and agreed, he condemned Liu Bei, appointed Li Yang as the general of Zhendong, and ordered him to crusade against Liu Bei's emperor's official document, which was quickly passed to Li Yang's hands.

Seeing this holy decree agreeing to him to ask for Liu Bei, Li Yang was even happier than his promotion.

It is now the end of March, which is the busiest time for farmers to sow seeds, and it is also the most unsuitable time for sending troops to fight.

But Li Yang didn't dare to wait, if Liu Bei was allowed to completely recover Xuzhou, then if he wanted to take Xuzhou, he would have to pay several times the price.

Another point, the location of this battle Li Yang expects to be very close to Tianyun City, and there is no need for too many people to transport food.

In this way, the peasants will be given enough time to cultivate, so that Qingzhou's grain output will not be greatly reduced this year.

Therefore, after receiving the official document from the 'imperial court', Li Yang directly announced it to the world, and announced to the world that he would obey the orders of the imperial court and attack Liu Bei in Xuzhou.

At the beginning of April, Li Yang gathered troops outside Tianyun Pass, led the Zhao Yun Crazy Dragon Legion, and the personal guards led by Lu Zhishen, with Zhang Liang as his military advisor, and personally led the army south.

On April 10, he successfully joined Huang Zhong in Qi County.

Qingzhou's Crazy Dragon Legion, the Sun-Chasing Legion and Li Yang's pro-army, with a total of nearly 900,000 troops, known as 1.5 million, are stationed at the junction of Qi County, Beihai County and Langya County.

Knowing that Li Yang's army was heading south, Xuzhou was shocked, and the newly appointed Xuzhou assassin Liu Bei immediately gave an order.

With Guan Yu as the main commander, Cao Bao as the deputy general, and Chen Deng as the military division of the army, he gathered a total of one million soldiers and horses from various counties and sent troops to Langya to resist Li Yang.

Xuzhou's famous 100,000 Danyang elite soldiers are also among them.

In addition, Liu Bei also released to Xuzhou players that if they participate in this battle to accumulate military merits, they can exchange for rare items here.

even secretly revealed that as long as the military merits are enough, the training methods of Danyang elite soldiers are not impossible.

Xuzhou players were excited, and they all ordered their soldiers and horses to go north, bound to block Li Yangdi from Langya County.

There are a lot of players in Xuzhou, and for Liu Bei's military exploits, millions of soldiers and Guan Yu have gathered, and Gai Hao, as the first player in Langya, is also among them.

At the end of April, soldiers and horses from both sides gathered, and nearly three million troops were stationed on the border.

The flags on both sides are continuous, and there is no end in sight to the crowds.

Facing an enemy twice as large as himself, Li Yang did not panic.

"Have you all arrived?"

Zhang Liang, who was standing on a high place with Li Yang to watch the enemy army, nodded and replied, "I just arrived in the camp yesterday. ”

The Qingzhou military horses arrived several days earlier than those in Xuzhou, but Li Yang never advanced, one of the reasons was these equipment.

In addition to the newly improved siege crossbows, there are also five red-colored red chariots.

Believe in them, and they will definitely be able to give the enemy a lot of impact.

"Now that we're all here." Looking at the nearly two million enemy troops in the distance, Li Yang smiled on his face, "Then let's go to war!" ”

After that, he took Zhang Liang and others and walked down the high slope.
