Li Yang didn't stay on Qingjiao Island for a long time, almost on the same day, he returned to Yunjiao Town by boat, and then returned to Tianyun City even faster.

When Li Yang returned to Tianyun, Zhang Liang had already returned from Shouchun.

This was Li Yang's order, allowing Yang Zaixing to temporarily command Shouchun's Wild Dragon Legion and troops to replace Zhang Liang and return.

After this incident, Li Yang knew that he was now inseparable from this intellectual boss, and it was too painful to move his head.

After Li Yang and the others returned to Tianyun, on the third day, Zhao Yun, Li Jing and Xu Chu set off to Shouchun with the Xuanjia Legion, Zhao Yun was going to command the Crazy Dragon Legion, and Li Jing and Xu Chu were going to take over the Crazy Dragon Legion to garrison Shouchun.

Originally, Li Yang thought that after signing the peace agreement with the north, he would be able to idle for a few months, but he never thought that within seven days, Li Yang received bad news.

"Lu Bu was defeated?" Li Yang looked at the battle report handed over by Zhang Liang and said with some surprise.

"Yes, big brother, and according to the news from Moyilou, the commander who commanded the army to attack Lu Bu was not Cao Cao's original general."

"Oh?"

"Now Cao Cao's army and horses have completely occupied Jiyin County, and will make peace with Xiahoudun and others in Juancheng, and now, he is planning to attack Lu Bu, who fled to Chenliu County."

Li Yang frowned, originally he wanted Bai Qi to lead the army and eat Xiahou of Juancheng first, but he never wanted to be delayed by the invasion of the Yanren, and now they will make peace with Cao Cao's army, and they want to attack, but they will be in trouble.

"However, Liang thinks that Lu Bu may not stay any longer."

"Why? Didn't this letter say that Lu Bu still had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses? With Lu Bu's temper, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to withdraw! ”

"Normally speaking, that's right! But big brother, you forgot a key factor. Zhang Liang smiled mysteriously.

"Oh, what?"

"Most of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses left in Lu Bu are Zhang Miao's army."

Li Yang suddenly said, "That's right, Zhang Miao is not a person who will work hard, if he leaves with the army, then how can Lu Bu leave tens of thousands of troops and state troops with more than one million troops." ”

"That ovary, who do you think Zhang Miao will go to?"

"Jizhou!" Zhang Liang smiled confidently.

"No, it won't." Li Yang shook his head, "Zhang Miao has an enmity with me, and he also has a grudge against Yuan Shao, originally he didn't defect to Yuan Shao, how can he take refuge now." ”

"So, he didn't go to Yuan Shao."

"Huh?" Li Yang frowned for a long time, and then suddenly realized, "You mean ......"

"Big brother guessed exactly! A few days ago, a person secretly went to Jizhou from Jiyin County, and at the same time Moyilou investigated, it seems that there were people from Jizhou who secretly contacted Zhang Miao before. ”

"Hmm!" Li Yang nodded, but his brows were not soothed, "In this way, Xuanyuan is even more powerful." ”

"Big brother, don't worry, Lu Bu originally turned his back on Yuan Shao, as long as we send someone to blow the wind again, Yuan Shao will definitely not allow him."

"Good!" Li Yang took the case, "Lu Bu's side, you are fully responsible for the ovary, and at the same time, the matter of attacking Cao Cao must also be on the agenda immediately, time waits for no one!" ”

"No!"

In mid-May, Lu Bu really did as Zhang Liang said, abandoned Chen Liu, bypassed Dongjun and went to Jizhou.

Knowing that Lu Bu was coming, Xuanyuan Honglie greeted him for a hundred miles.

What Yuan Shao thinks, Li Yang and they don't know, anyway, Xuanyuan Honglie's excitement can be said to be known to everyone.

After capturing Jiyin County, Cao Cao's army began to adjust vigorously, and Cao's army, which originally planned to attack Chenliu after a few months of rest, immediately drove into Chenliu County after learning that Lü Bu had evacuated.

Cao Cao, who recovered the lost territory of the two counties, began to develop the internal affairs and the army in a big way non-stop, because he also knew that Li Yang would never let go of the opportunity to attack him.

This was not what he expected.

At the beginning of June, several urgent military orders sped out of Tianyun City and headed in all directions.

In mid-June, the Tiger Legion located in the plains, under the leadership of Tai Shici, headed for Dongping County, and the Wild Dragon Legion, which was on its way back, also turned around directly and went to Shanyang County to join the Wolf Tooth Legion.

Not only that, the Pluto Legion led by Bai Qi, the Taishan Legion led by Guan Yu, and the Wolf Tooth Legion collectively pressed towards Jiyin County.

The five major legions combined, with a strength of more than two million, except for the Sun-Chasing Legion that was still stationed on the frontier, all the land legions of Tianyun gathered in Yanzhou, which shows Li Yang's determination to take Cao Cao.

After several major legions were already in place, Li Yang took Zhang Liang and set off from Tianyun.

Cao Cao is not an idle person, and even the capital of a hero, Li Yang naturally does not dare to be careless, so he plans to personally command the army to attack Cao Cao again.

At the end of June, at the suggestion of Zhang Liang, the Wild Dragon Legion, the Wolf Tooth Legion and the Taishan Legion took the lead in attacking.

With lightning speed, he captured Shanyang County, and then joined up with the Tiger Army to attack Jiyin County.

As for Li Yang, he came to Puyang, Dongjun, not only to let Zhang Liang get in touch with Chen Gong, but also to rendezvous with Bai Qi's Pluto Legion.

Li Yang did not plan to let the Pluto Legion attack Jiyin County like other legions, but planned to force it into Chenliu County.

This is also Zhang Liang's idea, one is to attract the main force of the Cao army, so that the Crazy Dragon and other legions can avoid Jiyin County more smoothly, and secondly, it is also to deal with the unexpected situation in Jizhou.

When Li Yang returned, he once told Zhang Liang about the peace treaty he signed with Xuanyuan Honglie.

After Zhang Liang heard this, he shook his head, because he saw the loopholes in this treaty.

The two parties who signed the contract were Li Yang and Xuanyuan Honglie, and there were no other forces.

Now this Jizhou is not Xuanyuan Honglie's, although with the treaty restrictions, Xuanyuan Honglie can no longer take the initiative, or even instigate others to attack him, but who called Yuan Shao has always wanted to take himself.

If Yuan Shao planned to attack him, at that time, as long as Xuanyuan Honglie was not in command until death, it would have nothing to do with him.

Therefore, the defensive line in the north still could not be relaxed, which is why Li Yang did not mobilize the Sun Chasing Army.

The Pluto Legion attacked Chenliu, called the attack, in fact, the purpose was to attract the main force of the Cao army, as long as the situation was not good, it could retreat at any time to protect Dongjun, of course, if Cao Cao did not send troops to defend or sent few soldiers, then the Pluto Legion would not hesitate to rush into Chenliu County.

This is a conspiracy, and Cao Cao can't help but send heavy troops to guard it.

In the end, the Cao army, which marched to defend Jiyin County, only had a million soldiers and horses.

Of course, there are quite a lot of millions of military horses, but this battle, for Cao Cao, can be regarded as a key battle of life and death.

On Li Yang's side, there is Zhao Yun as the commander, Zhao Hao, Tai Shici, Yang Zaixing, Guan Yu as generals, plus Xu Shu as the military advisor, it can be said that the camp is strong, and the military strength is also better than Cao Jun.

However, the battle between the two armies and Dingtao lasted for more than two months, and there was no progress.

This point made Li Yang a little surprised, originally thought that Boss Cao's generals and everything were basically poached, but now in addition to the Xiahou brothers, there is only one brave man Dian Wei who is still very strong, even if there are strategists like Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai, but they never thought that they would be able to block their army from making no progress for so long.

This made Li Yang quite surprised, and he couldn't help but think of Zhang Liang's previous report that two people had taken refuge in Cao Cao.

Li Yang thought to himself that it must have something to do with these two people, so he sent a large number of Moyilou personnel to investigate.

In the end, he got a piece of news that surprised Li Yang.

Cao Cao actually got the refuge of another Wu Anjun.

Three heads
