Liu Feng naturally didn't know this, but this was also his expectation, and he was always willing to figure out the problem with the most pessimistic attitude. For example, there have been a large number of lords who have quietly recruited historical generals, but because there is no system announcement, it is not known. The public knows, they want people to know.

In March of the ninth year of Jian'an, a piece of news gradually spread - the waterway to Yizhou was opened up.

Needless to say, the news was naturally released by Liu Feng.

When Liu Feng took Bai Jian and the others to defeat Kang Jinlong's clone (with a lot of water) and break through the seal and return to the mainland, it had been more than 20 years ago. At that time, the Yellow Turban Rebellion had not yet broken out.

The announcement of the appearance of Yizhou Island caused a sensation back then, and even some coastal players drove small boats to find the legendary Yizhou, and even the aborigines were very interested in Yizhou, and some big clans, especially the big families near the sea, also sent caravans to find it. The result is, of course, a big disappointment, some people find nothing, disappointed, and more are nowhere to be found, because once they break into a certain range, they will be surrounded by powerful sea beasts, and they will never be able to escape. Even if you are lucky enough to break out of the encirclement, there is still a powerful guardian beast such as Kang Jinlong waiting. With the strength of the major families at that time, it was impossible to pose a threat to Kang Jinlong at sea.

With the rise of Liu Feng, he gradually controlled the southeast sea, but the news of Yizhou never came out again, and some people speculated that Liu Feng controlled the Yizhou waterway, but Liu Feng never had any explanation for this.

It wasn't until later, before Liu Hong's death, that Liu Xie was named the king of Huiji, and then turned to the king of Yizhou, and the players knew that Liu Feng originally came back from Yizhou. However, as Liu Feng's strength gradually strengthened and unified the southeast, some voices asking Liu Feng to open the Yizhou waterway gradually weakened. The Yizhou Waterway is still firmly in Liu Feng's hands, and the appointment and dismissal of officials are all out of his hands.

But now, the waterway of Yizhou is unblocked, and players naturally understand the driving force behind the scenes, and they are not afraid that it is fake. Even players with conditions along the coast have already begun to prepare to go to Yizhou.

……

Liu Feng didn't know what the consequences of his decision would be, but he knew that if he didn't take any action, he would be far behind the other princes. As for the safety of Yizhou, Liu Feng is not worried at all, these years of continuous immigration, Yizhou is no longer the original scarce population of the outside of the place, with Liu Feng's vigorous development, the degree of prosperity is not inferior to the counties in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is a strong army to ensure the safety of Yizhou.

What he is thinking about now is how to attack Jingzhou.

The war with Liu Biao is imperative, and both sides know this. Now Yuan Shu in the north is much more honest, before there is a strong naval army, Yuan Shu's army can't cross the river, not to mention that in Jiangbei, there are still two incomplete counties guarding against Yuan Shu.

And Liu Biao in Jingzhou has never relaxed his vigilance against Jiangdong. Before Jingnan was peaceful, Liu Pan was sent to nail it to Youxian County, and Huang Zu of Jiangxia had heavy troops, and he was also guarding against Liu Feng, and the number had never been reduced. Until now, even if Liu Biao and Sun Jian were in full swing in Nanyang, they did not move half of Jiangxia's troops.

Jingzhou has always been Liu Feng's goal, and from the very beginning, it has been to achieve the achievements of Soochow in history. Otherwise, he is insecure. After all, Liu Feng is just a casual player, he has only one person, and the only one who can really be trusted is Xueba.

Jingzhou is the most powerful enemy, and without defeating Liu Biao first, Liu Feng will not be able to devote himself to the conquest of Jiaozhou.

But Liu Feng still had doubts about the direction of attacking Jingzhou. He hadn't decided yet whether to attack Jiangxia or Changsha first.

Although both directions are Liu Biao's territory, the focus is definitely different. Although Changsha in Jingnan has been captured by Liu Biao and appointed Taishou, because of the situation in Jingbei, Liu Biao has not been able to invest heavily in the territory of Jingnan, so he can only let himself appoint Taishou to suppress Zhang Yi, who still belongs to the rebels. But until now, the war in Jingnan continues.

Attacking Jiangxia, I don't have to say, it is naturally to face Liu Biao, it is definitely a tough battle. But attacking Jiangxia can affect Liu Biao's nerves and make him take care of one or the other. After all, the strength of the Jiangdong Army is obvious to all, and it has clashed with the Jingzhou Army more than once, although it is a small battle. And Changsha, there is not so strong strength, and Zhang Yi's rebels are contained, if Liu Feng is willing, he will soon be able to capture Changsha.

It may seem like a good choice, but it's not that simple.

Liu Biao's core interests have always been in Jingbei, which used to be Nanjun and Jiangxia County, and later added Xiangyang County, while Jingnan has never increased Liu Biao's strength, but has diluted Jingzhou's defensive forces. Even if Liu Feng conquered Changsha, it would not have any impact on Liu Biao, and would only allow him to strengthen Jingbei's defense and make his control over Jingbei more solid.

And after occupying Changsha, he also has to continue to advance north, and he doesn't have so much time to consolidate his rule, and if he is not careful, he will be cheaper than Liu Dan and Zhang Yi, who are also in Jingnan.

From this point of view, attacking Jiangxia is a better choice, taking advantage of Liu Biaozheng's fierce battle with Sun Jian, defeating Huang Zu, marching into Xiangyang, and capturing Jingzhou before Sun Jian. As long as Jingbei is captured, it will be much easier to deal with Jingnan's own forces.

But Liu Feng knew that Jiangxia was not easy to capture, not to mention that Huang Zu had an elite naval army in his hands, and there were many infantry troops. Once a war starts, it will not end in a short time. Only by capturing Jiangxia can we attack Gangneung. And in Jiangling, there is another force that worries Liu Feng.

Yunshui City.

Yunshui City was established by the Divine Arrow Alliance, a major guild that has always been ranked in the top ten in the Chinese game industry, and it has always been very low-key. The only big move was that when Liu Biao attacked Changsha Zhangxian, the United South player killed Cai Mao's fleet, and burned a powerful fleet cleanly. So the players know that those players who seem to do nothing are by no means famous.

Although Liu Feng didn't know that Yunshui City had recruited Liu Mi and Kou Feng, he could imagine that once he was facing Liu Biao head-on, Shuiyun City would be unable to stop him from taking the opportunity to sit big.

Jingzhou can be described as outstanding people and talents. Maybe many people look down on Liu Biao, the current owner of Jingzhou, and think that he can only talk about it, but this does not mean that they are willing to change the owner. Once Liu Feng officially starts a war with Liu Biao and invades Jingzhou, it is inevitable that many talents will emerge or be subdued by players. At that time, after the war, Liu Feng would face Yunshui City again, and it would be a lot of trouble.

The two sides are destined to be hostile, nothing else, on the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to snore!

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Feng finally decided to attack Jiangxia first, and the issue of Yunshui City could only be put on the back burner, and they were cheapened for nothing. Because the main enemy now is still Liu Biao. Only by taking advantage of the fact that Liu Biao has no time to seize Jingzhou in time can the losses be minimized. Otherwise, once Liu Biao and Sun Jian reached an agreement to truce the war, he would have to face Liu Biao alone.

In May of the ninth year of Jian'an, Liu Feng raised an army of 5 million and thousands of warships, and killed Jiangxia again.

Once again, the forum was boiling.
