Because of Li Feng's previous performance against the sky, Liu Bei and Cao Cao mentioned twelve points of caution, and treated Yuan Shujun absolutely beyond the norm. On Cao Cao's side, except for Cao Hong, who stayed in Luoyang, Xiahoudun guarded Lü Bu and Diao Chan's army in the north, and the other main generals poured out.

Liu Bei's lineup is not bad, only Zhang Fei is left to guard Xuzhou City, and the rest of the elite soldiers are also dispatched.

Objectively speaking, this lineup is really gorgeous, and together they have the qualifications to directly compete with Shang Ji.

However, whether it is Cao Cao or Liu Bei, they are a little uncertain about this big war.

Cao Cao and Liu Bei are not blind, they both have secret agents like Thousand Illusions and Shadow Clothes Secret Martial Arts, and it is not difficult to spy on the news of Shouchun City.

According to various intelligence, Yuan Shu at this time is very difficult to mess with!

In the Dazhong military system, the strongest combat effectiveness is naturally the 200,000 Dazhong Praetorian Guards directly under Yuan Shu. These people were originally Yuan Shu's pro-army, and their combat effectiveness was quite considerable.

Under normal circumstances, Yuan Shu would be the emperor, and these troops would be transformed into the Praetorian Guard, and some of them would be upgraded on the original basis to become a special class of troops exclusive to the national nature.

As for how much it can be improved, it is closely related to the fortune of the country.

And Yuan Shu obviously did not take the usual path, from the appearance, at this time, the grandeur of the national fortune of the Zhong State even exceeded the heyday of the Han Dynasty. With the blessing of the national fortune, the combat effectiveness of the Dazhong Praetorian Guard has also been geometrically improved, and the combat effectiveness is quite strong.

Under the Praetorian Guards was the Dazhong Protector Army.

Because the Praetorian Guard had strict quantitative restrictions, and only Yuan Shu could command and dispatch, and could not be dispatched unless the Emperor of Zhongguo personally drove the expedition, in essence, the Protector Army was the real pillar of the Dazhong military system.

And unlike the Praetorian Guard, the Protector Army can be freely expanded and reorganized, as long as the support is sufficient, it can be formed as much as it wants.

And Yuan Shu was a big tyrant among the princes before he became emperor, and the reserve of many materials was even inferior to Shang Ji. As a result, the number of the Protectors of the Middle Kingdom has also expanded rapidly in a balloon-like manner, and according to the information obtained by the secret agents, the total size of the Great Protector Army has reached no less than three million at this time, and it is still expanding rapidly.

Again, it's the big middleman.

At present, the number of Dazhong soldiers has exceeded 20 million, and it can be said that the main army under Yuan Shu's command is at least Dazhong soldiers, and the overall combat effectiveness has increased several times compared with before the emperor.

In addition to the special army, Yuan Shu also took advantage of the skyrocketing popularity of the people as soon as he became emperor to recruit troops on a large scale, so that the scale of Yuan Shu's army swelled sharply, and the total number of troops looked like it was going to 200 million.

In the face of such a behemoth, whether it is Liu Bei or Cao Cao, they are under great pressure.

Seeing that Yuan Shu was getting stronger and stronger, Liu Bei and Cao Cao couldn't hold their breath anymore. After a brief discussion, Zhang Fei's proposal was adopted, and the two armies attacked Jiujiang and Runan respectively without being subordinate to each other.

In the face of the attack of the two armies, Yuan Shu did not show weakness, and also divided his troops into two ways to directly meet the enemy.

Zhang Xun, the general of the Zhongguo Army, set out from Runan County and led his troops to meet Cao Cao.

Although Zhang Xun is not as famous as Ji Ling, in the military system of Zhongguo, he is a general, and his status is still above Ji Ling (Che Cavalry General).

At this time, due to the bonus of luck, unless the original combat effectiveness gap is very large, it is who has a higher official position and who is stronger, so Zhang Xun's combat effectiveness at this time is not weaker than that of the strengthened Ji Ling.

At the same time as Zhang Xun led the troops to set off, Ji Ling was not idle, leading the army to the north and fighting Liu Bei again!

Although Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao did not participate in the war, Cao, Liu and Yuan set up their men and horses, and tens of millions of troops were sharpening their knives next to Liu Biao, how could they really turn a blind eye?

Liu Biao did his best to command the elite soldiers and good generals, Chen Bing border, although nominally it is to protect the territory and the people, but the actual situation is clear to everyone.

However, secretly, whether it was Yuan Shu, Liu Bei or Cao Cao, they all despised Liu Biao to the extreme. It's all at this time, the two sides are either you die or I die, Liu Biao still wants to continue to be a grass on the wall, it's just a mouse's eye.

After this battle, no matter which side wins, it is impossible to continue to keep Liu Biao.

Since Ji Ling was named the general of Zhongguo's chariot cavalry, his strength has been greatly improved, and his desire to seek revenge on Liu Bei has become more and more urgent. After obtaining Yuan Shu's authorization, the vengeful Ji Ling personally served as the vanguard as the marshal of the Chinese army, and led 100,000 elite Dazhong Protector troops to the north quickly, attacking the city all the way, and the momentum was like a bamboo.

On Liu Beijun's side, Mi Fang was sent as the vanguard.

However, Liu Bei hid his hand, and on the surface, Mi Fang served as the vanguard, but in fact, the vanguard officer was Guan Yu who was hidden.

Liu Bei's original intention was to show the enemy weakness first, Guan Yu suddenly made a move at the critical moment, and gave Ji Ling a ruthless move, if he could kill Guan Yu on the spot, it would be even better!

However, Liu Bei never expected that such a careful arrangement would result in such a tragic result!

When the pioneers of the two sides meet, the new and old hatreds add up, and they are immediately killed.

Ji Ling even took the lead in rushing to the strongest side, and the goal was to go straight to Mi Fang.

Seeing this, Guan Yu secretly applauded in his heart, and hurriedly instructed Mi Fang to face the battle, in order to attract Ji Ling's attention, Guan Yu hid in the dark, and suddenly killed after the battle situation fell into anxiety, striving to keep Ji Ling.

Mi Fang understood and led the guards to take the initiative to meet Ji Ling.

However, both Guan Yu and Mi Fang underestimated Ji Ling. Especially Guan Yu, his impression of Ji Ling was still stuck in the battle against Dong, although he knew that Ji Ling had strengthened a lot because of Yuan Shu's claim to be emperor, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

When Ji Ling saw Mi Fang, he was immediately overjoyed and immediately killed him.

As soon as Mi Fang and Ji Ling fought, they secretly said that it was not good!

With just one blow, Mi Fang felt a huge force coming from the blade, the spear in his hand almost came out of his hand, the blood in his chest was churning, and his arms were numb and weak.

"General Guan, help!"

Mi Fang couldn't care about her face under the shock, and directly opened her throat and shouted.

"Rubbish!"

Guan Yu scolded secretly, but it was not good to continue to hide, so he immediately shouted angrily and slapped his horse out.

Ji Ling was stunned by Mi Fang's sudden shouting, and then when he saw Guan Yu appear, a flash of ecstasy immediately flashed in his eyes, and he laughed: "I didn't expect there to be a big fish here!" ”

As he spoke, Ji Ling swung his three-pointed two-edged spear, stabbing three times like lightning, and a three-eyed copper coin-sized blood hole appeared on Mi Fang's chest, and then Ji Ling didn't even look at it, and slapped the horse and attacked Guan Yu directly.

"Thief dares!!"

Seeing Ji Ling kill Mi Fang in front of him, anger surged in Guan Yu's chest.

Although he has never looked down on Mi Fang, or Guan Yu except for Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, he looks down on other Liu Beijun's civil and military generals, but after all, he is a robe in the army, and being killed by the enemy in front of him is simply a provocation to him!

Guan Yu shouted angrily and killed Ji Ling.
