Although he won Qingzhou, he ran away with Zhang Taiyi, and Liu Cheng's most wanted thing also ran with Zhang Taiyi, so Liu Cheng's mood was not very good.

But having said that, in fact, it is not impossible for Liu Cheng to really want to further pursue Zhang Taiyi at this time.

Although Zhang Taiyi left in a hurry, he also took the other two keys of the Qinglong treasure chest with him.

And Liu Cheng happened to have a [Qinglong Key Map] in his hand, as long as Liu Cheng passed through that map, he could roughly lock Zhang Taiyi's location for further tracking.

But after thinking about it again, Liu Cheng finally did not choose to use this trick.

The main reason is that the situation in Qingzhou at this time is a little delicate, even if Liu Cheng masters Zhang Taiyi's position, it is impossible for him to draw out manpower to encircle and suppress Zhang Taiyi in his current situation.

The situation in Qingzhou is delicate, not that there have been any changes on the battlefield.

To be honest, most of the entire Yellow Turban Army is under Liu Cheng's control, and the current battle situation in Qingzhou has almost become a game for Liu Cheng alone.

In this game, he can play as much as he wants, and with the little bit of the yellow scarf, he can't make waves at all.

What really made Liu Cheng feel that the situation was delicate was the reaction of those neighbors in Qingzhou.

In fact, since Liu Cheng announced that he would take over Qingzhou, several of Qingzhou's neighbors, Yanzhou's Datang, Xuzhou's Daming, and Jizhou's Dahan have made corresponding moves.

These three forces have frequently deployed troops in the past half a month, and each of them has stationed a troop at the junction of Qingzhou.

From this action alone, it is not difficult to see what kind of attitude they have towards Liu Cheng.

Liu Cheng's identity is too complicated, he is not only the sea overlord of the Great Zhou, but also the nephew and righteous son of Wang Fugui.

If he really succeeds in going ashore and sets up a banner of the Great Zhou, it will be a big trouble for those martial soul forces, and naturally no one will welcome Liu Cheng ashore.

So for Liu Cheng, the real trouble is not Qingzhou at all, but those neighbors near Qingzhou.

Once the news of Liu Cheng's capture of Qinghai City spreads, the three forces of Tang, Ming, and Han will definitely take action.

In this case, Liu Cheng didn't have the strength to free up his hands to encircle and suppress Zhang Taiyi.

missed the blow, Liu Cheng could only admit it, changed hands from Bocai to take over Qingzhou, and officially began to lay out Qingzhou.

And when Liu Cheng began to lay out Qingzhou, he was not in a hurry at first.

He knew very well that he still had some time, and it would be at least two or three days before the news of Qinghai City's destruction spread to the three neighbors.

Before the news of Qinghai City was broken, those 'neighbors' in Qingzhou should not act rashly.

Liu Cheng's speculation is correct, but at the same time, it is also wrong.

There is a tacit understanding between the martial soul forces of the Great Zhou, and under normal circumstances, if it were not for the critical situation in Qingzhou, the martial soul forces of all parties would not easily enter Qingzhou.

But Liu Cheng's situation this time was very unusual, and Liu Cheng underestimated the vigilance of all forces against him.

Therefore, almost not long after his army entered Qingzhou, the armies of the martial spirit forces of all parties drove directly into Qingzhou.

Not only that, but the martial soul forces of all parties dispatched a lot more troops this time, and the lineup of generals was luxurious.

On the Yanzhou side, Datang dispatched an army of 150,000, with Xue Rengui as the commander.

On the Jizhou side, the Han sent an army of 170,000, with Wei Qing as the commander.

Even on the side of Xuzhou, there were as many as 150,000 troops dispatched by the Ming Dynasty, and Xu Da was the commander.

The three parties dispatched a total of 470,000 troops, and each unit was led by a top military general or commander, such a lineup could not be described as terrifying.

Although Liu Cheng knew from the beginning that he was preparing to attack Qingzhou that he would definitely face more than Qingzhou in this battle, Liu Cheng was still stunned when he saw the list of all parties.

He never thought that those three would come up with such a luxurious lineup.

"It looks like the next battle might be a bit difficult."

Although the words were said like this, when Liu Cheng spoke, there was not much superfluous expression on his face.

Then, Liu Cheng's side began to get busy.

After Qinghai City was taken, the second phase of Liu Cheng's tactics also began to be executed.

The 500 warships that were about to land from Donghai County had not yet docked here, so they set sail and turned away.

Of course, they didn't really leave, but went around the sea to land at the port closest to Qinghai City.

Naturally, their move could not be concealed from the Yellow Turban Army, and at a glance, they knew that Liu Cheng was planning to open up the passage from Qinghai City to the port.

However, it is one thing to see it, and it is another thing to be able to block it.

The Yellow Turban's army does not need Liu Cheng's fleet, and it is not too difficult for people to transfer hundreds of kilometers on the sea surface with the assistance of skills such as [Beginner Navigation] and [Intermediate Navigation].

In one day, they were able to travel from the East China Sea to a designated location more than 200 kilometers away.

Not so with the Yellow Turbans, who are land forces, although they also have many generals who have the skills to speed up the march.

But the effect is not worse than Liu Cheng's fleet, and they have no way to complete the large-scale transfer of troops in one day.

In addition, at this time, the entire Yellow Turban Army was under Liu Cheng's control, and he casually gestured twice and secretly operated it, and the Yellow Turban Army could only temporarily send a little reinforcement to that port.

All the scripts are under the direction of Liu Cheng, and the Yellow Turban Army naturally can't make any big waves.

Although the Yellow Turbans did complete the increase of troops before the arrival of Liu Cheng's fleet, those books were of little use.

Liu Cheng's battleship drove over, and the remaining four [Shenwei Invincible Generals] and one [Shenwei General] bombarded that port.

One or two hundred shells went down, and that port was directly defeated, and Liu Cheng's fleet took the opportunity to land, and it only took half a day to take this port without much effort.

The arrival of this port means that Liu Cheng's army will be able to open up the route from the port to Qinghai City with lightning speed.

Once this route is opened, Liu Cheng's follow-up logistics can be continuously transported to Qinghai City, making Qinghai City Liu Cheng's base camp on the Qingzhou battlefield.

Generally speaking, the first battle in Qingzhou was quite perfect under the condition that Liu Cheng had various advantages.

But that's just the beginning......
