Jiang Dongfeng had a wave of twists and turns, shocking the ground's eyeballs. None of the players could have imagined that the end result would be like this.

First, he didn't expect that Liu Feng would retreat and defeat Yuan Shu in this way. Also, I didn't expect those rebel forces to be so vulnerable.

After occupying Jiangdong for more than ten years, Liu Feng has always paid attention to the development of local forces while constantly expanding, and will never allow too strong forces to appear. Whether it is a stranger or a wealthy family, even Shanyue, who has been hiding in the mountains, is always under Liu Feng's attention.

The growth of military strength is synchronized with its own power, so whether it is a wealthy family or a lord, although they have developed some strength, they are all in the dark and cannot get it on the table, although there are a lot of people gathered, and it seems that they are all elite level, but there is also a world of difference between the elite and the elite, compared with the regular army of Jiangdong, these are still a rabble. It is also a little stronger in Shanyue, which has always been in the mountains and forests with fierce beasts, but that is to say field battles, siege battles, and really not a level.

Therefore, He Qi was able to rely on the 500,000 army left to him by Liu Feng, plus the county soldiers of Huiji and Jian'an counties, to put down the rebellion in a short time.

In the same way, this also made those players of the Great Guild face up to their strength again, whether they could compete with the aboriginal princes.

Tiance Mansion was successful, but now it has already spread, Hua Xiong has long been in Tiance Mansion, and at the same time, Hu Chi'er, and even Li Ru have gradually appeared in the player's sight, so Tiance Mansion can defeat Li Dao Guo Yan and occupy Chang'an.

……

When Liu Feng returned to Wu County, it was already winter, and Jiujiang only occupied half of it, so he took Hefei as the county rule, leaving Zhu Huan as the Taishou and leading a million army to defend the city.

The war lasted nearly a year, and the losses were heavy, especially the loss of military strength, although the rebellion was quickly quelled, but at this time, Jiangdong was in the weakest state. If a strong enemy comes to attack at this time, it will definitely make Jiangdong even worse.

But fortunately, Koto is in a safe environment.

The rebellion had just been quelled, and it was a silent deterrent internally; To the east is the sea, Jiaozhou to the south is still in civil strife, and Yuan Shu has just been forced away in the north; Only Liu Biao in the west is a big threat, but Jingnan Liu Biaojun and Zhang Yi are still fighting for Guiyang, and Liu Dan's mind is unknown; In Jingbei, Liu Biao himself is also competing with Zhang Ji for Nanyang, and it has reached a critical time, so he naturally has no time to take care of Jiangdong.

This gave Liu Feng time to regain his strength.

At this time, Liu Biao had already attacked outside Wancheng, and Zhang Ji's forces had reached the critical point of life and death. According to the historical trend, it was Zhang Ji who took Nanyang to defect to the Han Dynasty, that is, Cao Cao of Xuchang. But in the game, because of the interval between Sun Jian, Cao Cao was unable to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and his power was also limited to the Yanzhou area, which was far less than the same period in history.

The west is Xiliang, who he betrayed, and now it is occupied by strangers, he can't go back no matter what, even if Tiance in Yongzhou has sent people to lobby several times before this, but whether it is Zhang Ji or Jia Xu, he will not go back as a loser. and Liu Biao have a big enmity, and Zhang Ji has not many choices.

In the winter of this year, the Xianbei tribes once again united and invaded the Dahan border county. In Youzhou, he was severely attacked by Liu Bei, who had just pacified Gongsun Du, and Lu Bu, who had already recovered some of his strength in Bingzhou, even counterattacked to Wuyuan and Shuofang for a time. In Liangzhou, due to the war between Han Sui, Ma Teng, Song Jian and others, they were once plundered by the western Xianbei. That is, in the later stage of this war, when the various departments of the Xiliang Army made a truce and counterattacked, Ma Chao was born, led 30,000 iron cavalry, and defeated the 200,000 Xianbei army in one fell swoop, showing the outstanding strength of Xiliang Jin Ma Chao. The Iron Cavalry also took this opportunity to find a small group of Xianbei men and horses to train their troops, and gradually gained a foothold in Northland County.

In April of the seventh year of Jian'an, Liu Biao broke through Wancheng, Zhang Ji died in battle, and his last words ordered Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu to defect to Sun Jian, and several counties in the north of Nanyang County fell into the hands of Sun Jian.

Zhang Ji did not have a chance of surviving, but he chose to die - which meant that the power of the Western Liang Army established since the Dong Zhuo period was further extinguished, and the new Western Liang Army group was rapidly rising.

Xiliang, Yizhou, and Jiaozhou are all in constant war, and there are players everywhere who want to pick up the leaks to fan the flames. In Jizhou, Yuan Shao, who spent a whole year regaining strength and consolidating his internal rule, was no longer satisfied with only occupying Ji and Qingzhou, and gathered a large army to go north to Youzhou to complete his ideals.

It's not that Yuan Shao doesn't want to go south, but in the case that Youzhou is not resolved, Yuan Shao doesn't dare to fight for the world in the south. There is also the imperial court of Jinyang, which is also a big threat. According to the land of Hebei, fighting for the world in the south is Yuan Shao's basic strategic goal, and now it is only half completed, even if Yuan Shao covets the land of the Central Plains, he will not dare to act rashly.

Since the end of the Nanyang War, in addition to the war in the border states, the major princes of the Central Plains have tacitly stopped the war, stepped up to restore their strength, and consolidated their internal rule.

A new round of war is brewing.

Because all the princes are not satisfied with the existing situation.

Not only was Yuan Shao dissatisfied with his situation, feeling that the land of the two states did not match his identity as the fourth and third dukes, but Liu Bei, who pacified the power of Gongsun Du, was also not satisfied with the bitter cold land of Youzhou. Youzhou's territory is large enough, but the population is too small, and the border is too long, and it is always threatened by grassland alien races such as Wuhuan and Xianbei. Therefore, although Liu Bei wanted to develop southward, he couldn't do it, so he could only gather troops while guarding against Yuan Shao's present, prepare for the Northern Expedition to the grassland, completely wipe out the threat of foreign races, and use it for his own use, as another force against Yuan Shao.

Lu Bu is also dissatisfied, although he occupies the entire state, but the state has always been barren, and Taiyuan County is richer, but fortunately, there is still a river east, which can barely support Lu Bu's consumption. But in the same way, Bingzhou faced the threat of grassland aliens to the north, and Liangzhou was even more barren to the west, and Sun Jian and Yuan Shao firmly blocked Lü Bu's path of development, and if they wanted to continue to expand, they could only wage war and defeat a strong opponent.

The same is true for Sun Jian, although he received Zhang Xiu's Xiliang army and expanded his power to all counties in Nanyang again, but in the same way, Sun Jian's surroundings are also more powerful enemies, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Liu Biao and Yuan Shao, none of which are easy to mess with, Duan Xuan in the west is a weak chicken, but he occupies Hangu Tianwei. For a long time, neither Sun Jian nor Tiance Mansion had ever been at odds with him, just because he was afraid that this guy would take refuge in the other party. If Duan Xuan takes refuge in Sun Jian, then Sun Jian will have the door to enter Yongzhou in the west, and if he takes refuge in Tiance Mansion, then Tiance Mansion will be able to hold the Hangu Heavenly Danger, gradually attack the land of Yongliang, and then take the unification of the Qin Dynasty out of the customs and sweep the Central Plains. There are enemies on all sides, so Sun Jian urgently needs space for development, and a big war is inevitable.

Not to mention Cao Cao in Yanzhou, the situation is not even as good as Sun Jian, he has already fought with Sun Jian for Chen Liu, Yuan Shao is in the north and east, and it is impossible to do it, so he can catch Yuan Shu and beat him to death. And Yuan Shu's territory is constantly shrinking, if he doesn't want to be abandoned like this, he can only fight back and deter the hostile princes around him.

Liu Biao's situation is not good, although he broke through Zhang Ji and captured Wancheng and Nanxiang County, but because Zhang Xiu defected to Sun Jian, he was already in hostility with Sun Jian, Jingnan was still at war, although Liu Zhang in the west had been at war with Zhang Lu, but his defense against Jingzhou had never been relaxed, and Liu Feng was greedy for the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in the east. Even if Liu Biao doesn't want to fight anymore, he can't help himself.

……

This year, Liu Feng basically spent his time playing soy sauce, burying himself in developing his own strength and discovering talents from his own sphere of influence. It took him a year to finally make up for the troops he had lost before, and although his combat effectiveness was somewhat inferior, he was already very objective in terms of small numbers.

This is also due to the growth of Jiangdong's population, otherwise, recruiting so many soldiers in a year will really affect the normal development of Jiangdong.
