Zhang Liao commanded 50,000 troops and guarded Chang'an.

Tang Xiu also had no worries, and Ma Teng, Bian Zhang, Han Sui and others were defeated by Lu Bu before, and they couldn't make any waves for the time being.

In this way, there will be no worries!

Right now, it is to pacify the princes of all walks of life, revive the Han Dynasty, and completely complete the quest task!

Among the princes from all walks of life, except for Liu Ge, a gamer, as Tang Xiu's internal response, the rest such as Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zhan, Sun Jian, etc., are all ambitious.

Moreover, these princes, with their respective family backgrounds, have developed very quickly, and in these days of Tang Xiu's southern expedition to the north, they have already grown up.

In addition, there are Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Liu Zhang of Yizhou, and Zhang Lu of Hanzhong, who have no ambitions.

But the strength of these princes is not weak, Liu Biao sits in Jingzhou, with two or three hundred thousand, among which there are sailors, who occupy all the advantages of people and geography, and have strong strength.

Liu Zhang sits in Yizhou, and he is also a soldier with enough food, and he does not lose to Liu Biao.

If it weren't for Liu Biao's old age and lack of ambition, and Liu Zhang's weak temperament and lack of enterprising spirit, for Tang Xiu, there would be two more henchmen.

And Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is also a genius, it is rumored to be the tenth grandson of Zhang Liang, the Marquis of the Western Han Dynasty, and the grandson of Zhang Ling, the ancestor of Taoism.

Zhang Lu is the Heavenly Master Dao, that is, the third generation of the Heavenly Master of the Five Bucket Rice Dao, who spreads the Five Bucket Rice Dao in the Hanzhong area, and calls himself "Shijun." ”

This person is dedicated to preaching, and he has no ambitions, and after Tang Xiu consolidates the Han regime, he may be able to subdue Zhang Lu with an edict.

It's just that if there is a big chaos today, there are remnants of the Yellow Turban outside, and there are princes from all walks of life inside, although the Han regime is supported by Tang Xiu and hundreds of officials, it has long been ignored by all princes.

It's not yet time for an edict to pacify Zhang Lu in Hanzhong!

Liu Biao, Liu Zhang, and Zhang Lu were all powerful princes, and none of them had ambitions, which was good news for Tang Xiu. He only needs to deal with Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zhan, Sun Jian and other princes with peace of mind.

Tang Xiu did not rush to send troops, but locked the target in Bingzhou.

Bingzhou is located in the north of Luoyang City, which was originally the territory of Bingzhou Thorn Shi Dingyuan.

Later, Ding Yuan was killed by Lu Bu, and Lu Bu took the Bingzhou army to take refuge with Dong Zhuo, resulting in the emptiness of the military and government of Bingzhou, with chaotic soldiers inside and foreign races outside.

Tang Xiu did not have many troops under his hands now, but fortunately, there were 50,000 Xiliang troops under Lu Bu who surrendered to the imperial court.

He immediately ordered to send Lu Bu to lead 50,000 Xiliang troops, and three brothers, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, to lead the remaining 20,000 remnants of the previous defeat to go out to conquer the state.

The 30,000 troops under the command of Zhang Ji and Fan Chou are still in charge of logistics.

Bingzhou did not have much power, with the ability of Lu Bu and Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other generals, and the logistics of rich money and food, after the expedition, he was invincible all the way, and soon collected the territory of the state.

And Chen Gong, a top Wenchen strategist, was also put to use by Tang Xiu, serving as the assassin of the state and taking charge of the state.

Headed by Chen Gong, there are also generals such as Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, etc., who will soon recover the territory of the annexed state, take care of it in an orderly manner, and expand the army by 100,000.

Bingzhou was originally a chaotic army and a mixture of foreign races, but it was the least lacking in soldiers, so it expanded the army by 100,000 and merged with the state army, which increased the strength of Tang Xiu's troops again.

Compared with the more than 200,000 Qingzhou soldiers who Cao Cao originally expanded his army, when Tang Xiu expanded his army, his attack was relatively light.

There is no way, money and food are needed to expand the army.

I didn't look at Cao Cao's expansion of more than 200,000 Qingzhou soldiers, and there were more than one million people recruited, and they couldn't afford to raise it at all, if it wasn't for the butcher's knife waved to Xuzhou and robbed a lot of money and grain, I am afraid that it would have been "bankrupt" long ago!

Meanwhile.

Mi Zhu, who was appointed by Tang Xiu as the Taishou of Xuzhou, with the assistance of Guan Hai and Gao Shun, expanded his army by tens of thousands, and there were already 50,000 troops.

And Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, also under the instruction of Tang Xiu, took Tai Shici as the general, expanded the army by tens of thousands, and there were already 50,000 troops.

Xuzhou and Beihai are both rich lands, and they can still afford to raise 50,000 troops each.

The forces under Tang Xiu's command developed rapidly.

Chang'an has Zhang Liao's 50,000 troops, Hugaoguan has Huaxiong's 50,000 troops, Beihai has Kong Rong's 50,000 troops, and Xuzhou has Mizhu's 50,000 troops. That alone is 200,000 troops.

plus the 100,000 new soldiers and horses in the state, led by Zhang Xiu.

as well as the soldiers and horses under the command of Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, as well as the soldiers and horses under Zhang Ji and Fan Chou, who have always been responsible for the logistics of money and grain.

The public has more than 400,000 soldiers and horses, although it is only in the early 400,000s, but it is known to the outside world as "500,000 soldiers with armor, and enough soldiers and food!" ”

This external claim was naturally "bragged" by Wang Yun, Huang Wan, Yang Biao and other courtiers, and they boasted about 100,000 more soldiers and horses.

Wang Yun, Huang Wan and other courtiers of the Three Dukes, the reason why this is naturally the case is naturally to show the prestige of the Han Dynasty and show the people of the world that the Han regime still exists and is powerful!

It's a pity that all the princes don't buy it!

Even Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zhan, Cao Cao, and Liu Ge and other princes of the Five Roads have once again formed an alliance outside the Tiger Prison Pass!

The last time the princes of the Twenty Roads formed an alliance, with a total of 500,000 princes, it was to crusade against Dong Zhuo.

This time, although there are only five princes left, they have a million!

It's to crusade against Tang Xiu!

Among them, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have the largest power, each with more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, adding up to 500,000!

Gongsun Zan and Liu Ge were not to be outdone, and developed rapidly, each with more than 100,000 soldiers and horses.

It's just that compared to the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and Liu Ge can't afford to raise an army, if it weren't for Youzhou's proximity to foreign clans, they could attack and plunder foreign clans, but I'm afraid that the two of them would have been "bankrupt" long ago!

After Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou, he recuperated and restored the Qingzhou soldiers to an establishment of 200,000, and the soldiers were strong and strong.

Now, the princes of the Five Roads have formed an alliance outside the Tiger Prison Pass, with millions of armor, vowing to crusade against Tang Xiu!

In the mouth of the princes' coalition army, Tang Xiu, the general of the dynasty, has replaced Dong Zhuo and become another "national thief", and even Wang Yun, Huang Wan, Yang Biao and other courtiers of the three dukes have also been scolded as accomplices.

Especially Tang Xiu's cheap father-in-law, Wang Yun, was also scolded by the princes as a traitor who controlled the government, and almost vomited blood to this Wang Situ, who was bent on supporting the Han Dynasty.

And the reason why Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan and other princes formed an alliance to crusade against Tang Xiu was naturally because Tang Xiu's power was getting bigger and bigger, and it had seriously threatened them.

There is only Liu Ge, the other prince, who is Tang Xiu's internal response, and this time he is also among the princes' coalition.

The eyes of all the people in the world once again gathered at the Tiger Prison Pass.

Compared with the last Tiger Prison Battle last time, this Tiger Prison Battle has been upgraded again, and it has reached a battle of millions of people!
