With the defeat of Cao Cao, Yue Fei, Li Jing, and Song Que's three-way army successfully met under the city of Xuchang, and the general trend of the world became clearer, although there were still Jiangdong, Shuzhong and Xuzhou that had not been pacified, but with the pacification of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Qingzhou, Sili, and Hanzhong, plus Li Xuan's previous Yongliang and Hebei five continents, the thirteen states in the world, and the Dragon Court monopolized Kyushu, the luck of the entire plane and the dragon gas converged to the Dragon Court endlessly, and the power was so strong that the only remaining princes heard the wind and changed their color.

However, Li Xuan did not calm the world in one fell swoop with a sweeping momentum as the princes feared, and after the three-way army met Xuchang, he returned to Longting with a group of men and horses, and the forces of all sides of Dayan did not continue to attack, but began to enter a period of recuperation, which made the only remaining princes Sun Ce, Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu and Liu Yan in Shuzhong slightly relieved.

Li Xuan did not continue to expand externally, these princes naturally did not have the courage to sweep their beards at this time, Liu Biao is old, the former sharpness has long been exhausted, Liu Yan is seriously ill, can not and dare not provoke the increasingly powerful Li Xuan at this time, Wancheng Zhang Xiu, sandwiched between Liu Biao and Li Xuan, there is no poison Jia Xu, Zhang Xiu in this period is quite bleak, Jiangdong Sun Ce, but has the heart to forge ahead, but the new occupation of Guangling, Jiangdong has not been completely cleaned, and there are Runan, Lujiang and other blank territories left by Cao Cao waiting for him to collect, Although he knew that if Li Xuan continued like this, he would only become stronger in the future, and he had the intention to unite a group of princes to resist Li Xuan, but a group of pig teammates around him was really not strong, and there was even a scene of attacking each other, which made Sun Ce secretly hate at the same time, and he could only watch Li Xuan quickly stabilize the situation weakly.

As for the Chen family in Xuzhou, they are facing an embarrassing situation at this moment, Cao Cao's sudden defeat, obviously beyond the expectations of the Chen father and son, and the backer has fallen. In defecting to Li Xuan, it is obviously not realistic, after Xuzhou turned over the plan, they and Lu Bu have completely become mortal enemies, since Li Xuan has accepted Lu Bu, it is obvious that between the Chen family and Li Xuan in the future. There can only be one relationship, but in this way, the Chen family has to stand in front of the stage and face the princes who are eyeing each other.

Sun Ce occupies Guangling, and he is obviously very enthusiastic about the territory of Xuzhou, but now Sun Ce is spending more energy on annexing the Runan area, and he has not paid attention to Xuzhou for the time being, but Chen Qi and Chen Deng are very clear that with the current situation in Xuzhou, although they control most of Xuzhou. But there are too few generals available in their hands, not to mention that they can be comparable to Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Sun Ce, Tai Shici, such king-level fierce generals, they are first-class generals, Xuzhou can't take it out, under the painstaking excavation of the Chen family's father and son, they found a general with the potential of a famous general from Haixi, named Xu Sheng, from Chen Qi's eyes. Perhaps Xu Sheng could not compare with those peak generals in terms of force, but he was proficient in battle formations. He is better at training soldiers and has the qualifications of famous generals.

It's just a Xu Sheng, obviously unable to alleviate the embarrassing situation of having soldiers and no generals in Xuzhou, and the arrival of Liu Bei at this time is undoubtedly a great news for the Chen family father and son.

Liu Bei was defeated by Lü Bu and driven out of Xuzhou. went to Xuchang and defected to Cao Cao, firstly to seek protection, and secondly, to get a chance to correct his name, a descendant of the Han family. After King Jing of Zhongshan, it has always been Liu Bei's political capital, but this capital has always been a piece of Liu Bei's heart.

Liu Bei knows very well that the descendants of the royal family sound like a very high identity, but the Han Dynasty has been inherited for four hundred years, and the descendants of the Liu family are countless, think about the terrifying base, this identity, in fact, there is nothing to be proud of, it's okay to fool a low-level person like Guan Yu, when you really face those big families, this identity is simply a joke, otherwise when the princes asked for Dong, it would not be so embarrassing.

Without the approval of the royal family, this identity is just a laughing stock in the eyes of an upper-class person.

It was also Liu Bei who was too good at the time, after experiencing the puppets of Dong Zhuo, Li Yu, and Guo Yan, Emperor Xian was eager to control the power, and Cao Cao treated him well, but so what?

It's just a ten-year puppet career, which also makes Liu Xie understand a truth, before you have the strength in your hands, don't show your fangs too early, since moving the capital to Xuchang, Liu Xie has been very low-key, and many things even if Cao Cao doesn't know, he will take the initiative to ask for opinions, looking like a monarch and a minister, but secretly, he secretly contacts the loyal ministers of the Han family and cultivates his own power.

It's just that Cao Cao is such a character, how can these small actions be concealed from Cao Cao, it's just that Cao Cao also wanted to use the signboard of the emperor to stew the courtiers who were dissatisfied with him in the court, so he didn't know if he was pretending, but the gladiatorial battle between the Cao family and the royal family became more and more intense.

What makes Liu Xie distressed is that there are many well-educated people around him, such as Ma Riyan, Zhao Rong, Yang Biao, Liu Tao, Huang Wan, Kong Rong, but in terms of the army, they are held by Cao Cao in their hands, and Liu Xie cannot be allowed to interfere at all, and in Liu Xie's hands, there is no one who can be trusted.

Liu Bei's arrival, for Liu Xie, is definitely a big help worth wooing, Liu Bei's name, although not as dazzling as Li Xuan and Cao Cao, but under the Tiger Prison, the three heroes fought against Lu Bu, and he has long been famous all over the world, just the name of a royal descendant, for two peerless generals, and Liu Bei, who is also good at fighting, is definitely a sure win, not to mention, with the identity of a clan, Cao Cao has to weigh it even if he wants to win over Liu Bei.

It's a pity that Liu Xie's plan disappeared with Cao Cao's death in Da Yeze, at the beginning, Liu Xie was really excited, Cao Cao died, then no one could stop him from taking power.

It's just that this excitement didn't last long, in the past, Emperor Xian naturally wished that Cao Cao would die immediately, but until Cao Cao really died, it was his turn to be in charge of everything, Liu Xie could truly appreciate how many storms Cao Cao, a traitor he regarded as a confidant in the past, blocked him from many storms.

The biggest contradiction is naturally the conflict between the old ministers of the Cao family and Liu Xie's faction.

Without Cao Cao's suppression, the time has come for these pro-imperial factions who have been squeezed in the past to consciously raise their eyebrows, except for a very few real wise men, others gradually began to stand up, regardless of how long the stormy Xuchang court could last under Li Xuan's attack, and a group of people only cared about fighting for power and profit.

And the old ministers of the Cao family, but they are determined to take revenge, what makes Liu Xie even more uncomfortable is that although Cao Cao died, the military power was held in the hands of these old ministers of the Cao family, and Liu Xie wanted to command, but he couldn't command at all. These people could only be allowed to resist the enemy, and the old ministers of the Cao family, who did not have a unified command, were gradually divided, and then each was broken, and during that time, Xuchang almost every day there were reports of defeat. When the old ministers of the Cao family felt that something was wrong and wanted to join forces with the royal family, the three-way army had already reached the city of Xuchang.

And Liu Bei took advantage of this time to constantly gather people's hearts and begin to form a team for himself.

Cao Cao's defeat was too fast and too sudden, not to mention the Cao generals, even Liu Bei was a little caught off guard.

But after the initial stunned, Liu Bei soon found out. Your chance has come.

From the beginning, Liu Bei never thought about getting on Liu Xie's broken boat, of course, on the surface, Liu Bei was still a loyal minister of the Han family, and he needed this signboard to attract more talents for his own use.

During this time, with the identity of the imperial uncle and his own personality charm. Liu Bei really attracted a lot of talents for himself, Yingchuan Chen Qun. Chen Zhen and Lou Gui are all great talents that Liu Bei secretly wooed during this time.

And Cao Cao's death is not good news for Xuchang or even for Liu Xie, but for Liu Bei, it undoubtedly allows him to attract more talents.

Reports of defeat at the front kept coming. Coupled with the open and secret battles in Xuchang City, as well as the exclusion of the imperial party, many former Cao generals were discouraged, but Liu Bei took this opportunity to continue to win people's hearts, and first secretly subdued the former generals under Cao Cao's command to ban Yu Wenze. Under the recommendation of the ban, Xu Chu's brother Xu Ding was secretly subdued.

As the battle between the DPRK and China intensified, the Longting army was pressing forward step by step, and Liu Bei's actions were more obvious, especially in an accident, Zhang Fei rescued Xiahoudun's orphan, Xiahou's family, and after falling in love at first sight, Liu Bei saw the opportunity and personally operated it, so that Zhang Fei married Xiahou's family, which suddenly greatly improved the perception of many old generals of the Cao family towards Liu Bei, and many people saw the court fall apart, and Liu Bei faintly revealed the idea of finding another way out, many Cao and Xiahou clan generals also began to vote.

Xiahou Yuan's second son, Xiahou Ba, although he is young, but he is brave, even Guan Yu is full of praise, in addition to Cao Chun, the commander of the tiger and leopard battalion beside Cao Cao in the past, Cao Xiu, a thousand-mile horse of the Cao family, and Cao Peng, a super-first-class general of the Cao family, in addition to having no territory, the civil and military strength in Liu Bei's hands is no longer under any prince in the world.

The army of Longting is approaching step by step, and the war in the Central Plains has been corroded to the point of no return, and in the Xuchang court, Liu Xie has already become wary of Liu Bei, which also made Liu Bei firm in his intentions, and secretly contacted the current Xuzhou Mu Chen Qi.

After all, he used to be a pastor in Xuzhou, and he was also very popular in Xuzhou, Chen Qi and his son had a good impression of Liu Bei, and the current situation, although Chen's father and son had a strategy, but they wanted to divide one side in this situation, it was obviously too far behind, I heard that Liu Bei wanted to return to take charge of Xuzhou, and immediately did not hesitate to give up the position of Xuzhou pastor, and was willing to be a minister.

On the occasion of Liu Bei's departure, he also specially visited Sima's house, from Sima's family, invited two talents, Sima Fang's eldest son Sima Lang and his second son Sima Yi, since then, Liu Bei's account is full of martial arts, Wen has Sima brothers, Chen father and son, Chen Qun, Chen Zhen and the former strategist Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Wu Zhang's two generals, Cao's generals, civil and military, and in one fell swoop to obtain Xuzhou Guangbo land, and became the most powerful prince in the world except Li Xuan.

Moreover, as soon as Sima Yi arrived, he offered a plan for Liu Bei, taking advantage of Sun Ce's attack on Lujiang, to secretly subdue the Yellow Turban thieves Liu Pi and Gong Du who were entrenched in Runan, and took a large part of the city in Runan.

Seeing that the meat of the mouth was inserted horizontally, and most of it was taken, Sun Ce was naturally unwilling, and under the anger, he sent Shouchun, but under the city of Shouchun, he was stopped by Guan Yu, and the two sides had a big battle, Sun Ce was defeated by Guan Yu after all, and was severely injured by Guan Yu, and returned with serious injuries, on the way back to Lujiang, he died of death, Jiangdong mourned, Zhou Yu took Sun Ce's coffin to cross the river overnight, held Sun Ce's will, and assisted Sun Ce's brother Sun Quan to inherit Sun Ce's position.

At this point, the general trend of the world is gradually clear, Li Xuan of the Dragon Court in the north dominates the Central Plains in the north, while in the south, it is Liu Bei, Liu Biao and Jiangdong Sun's tripartite separation, and Liu Yan in the west is trapped in Bashu, as for the two forces of Jiaozhou and Wancheng Zhang Xiu in the south, anyone can see that these two groups of people obviously do not have the qualifications to dominate the world.

However, just when the princes of the world thought that they were about to usher in a period of peace, a news from the north made the situation in the world fall into a tense state, and not long after Li Xuan returned to the Dragon Court, the young emperor Liu Wei officially took the throne and gave way to Li Xuan, Li Xuan changed the name of the country to Da Yan and officially established the Great Yan Empire.

Dragon Garden, with the continuous expansion of the territory, the dragon qi of Kyushu has gathered, and the nine golden dragons in the past have now expanded to eighteen, and the Dragon City has also floated to a hundred zhang high in the sky, and it already has a trace of heavenly atmosphere.

Above the Dragon City, the huge Human Emperor Altar was no longer looming as it had just been condensed, but condensed into an entity, with a magnificent and majestic momentum, enjoying the supply of dragon qi from all directions.

On the altar, after worshipping heaven and earth, Li Xuan finally officially launched the banner of the Great Yan Empire in this realm, the endless dragon qi gathered, and a slight sound of qi explosion continued to be produced in his body, Li Xuan could feel that his connection with this heaven and earth was closer, and his body was also washed by the endless dragon qi, constantly strengthening and refining towards the limit of the plane, and his soul was absorbing the luck of this realm every moment, and there were more and more wisps of soul mist.

And the netherworld, which has always been coveted by Li Xuan, has also expanded as the scope of dragon qi has become wider and wider, and now it has encompassed the land of Kyushu, and every day, a large number of souls have passed through reincarnation and entered the netherworld, but what makes Li Xuan puzzled is that he found the souls of Xiahou Yuan and Xiahoudun in the netherworld, but Cao Cao's soul has never been found.

"Li Jing obeys orders!" On the Nine Dragons Heavenly Chair, Li Xuan slowly opened his eyes and looked at Li Jing among the civil and martial arts.

"The minister is here!" Li Jing strode forward and bowed.

"Order you to be the general of Zhenxi, enter Hanzhong, the day of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan's limit is not far away, order you to rectify the soldiers and horses, the day Liu Yan returns to the sky, is the time when my Dayan enters Shuzhong!" Li Xuan said indifferently.

Liu Bei's rise was indeed unexpected by Li Xuan, but because of this, Xichuan will have no one to touch after Liu Yan's death, Liu Bei is far away in Xuzhou, Sun Ce is in mourning, Sun Quan is busy stabilizing Jiangdong, and obviously has no spare energy to take care of Yizhou's affairs.

What Li Xuan is most worried about now is the formation of a three-point world, which will undoubtedly slow down the pace of unification, so Shuzhong must be in his own hands as soon as possible, as long as he controls Shuzhong, he also controls the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, as long as he forms a naval army, and goes down the river, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, and Xuzhou will all be within the attack range of the Dragon Court.

"Minister, obey!" Li Jing bowed down to receive the order.

"Feng Song Que is the general of Zhendong, enjoying the position of a god official, sitting in Xuchang, monitoring the movements of Xuzhou, Yue Fei is the general of Zhennan, enjoying the position of a god official, sitting in Yingchuan, suppressing Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao's rebellion."

"Thank you, Lord Longne!" Song Que and Yue Fei came out of the queue and bowed down to thank him.

"Kou Zhong, you are the general of Zhenhai, choose a site in Qingzhou, establish a navy, and if you have shipbuilding talents, you can call on the Ministry of Industry, and I will order the real concubine to assist you in forming an army."

"Command!" Kou Zhong said respectfully.

"In addition, Liu Bianzen has meritorious service, he is named Anle Hou, eats Xingyang, and enjoys the position of auxiliary gods!" Li Xuan finally looked at Liu Wei and He Hou, who looked helpless under the altar, smiled slightly and said loudly.

As his words fell, on the altar, a ray of golden light fell into Liu Bian's body, which suddenly made Liu Bian feel refreshed, and his whole body was comfortable, and at the same time, there was also one more information in his mind, information about the karma of the auxiliary gods, and his originally dazed and helpless face suddenly felt a little more joyful, and in the unexpected gaze of He Hou, he bowed down to Li Xuan and said respectfully: "Minister Liu Bian, thank you Lord Longen." ”

Li Xuan stretched out his hand, looked at the ministers with a smile and said: "The Great Yan Empire has just been established, and the external troubles have not been eliminated, and I hope that all the ministers will work together to restore the national strength as soon as possible, and follow me to calm the world!" ”

"Obey the Divine Commandment!" (To be continued......)
