No one thought that in a few years, Zhou Yu has already owned the entire territory of Yangzhou and most of Jingzhou, compared to the princes with considerable power only Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao listened to Xu You's suggestion to install a detailed work in Youzhou, provoking the contradiction between Gongsun Zan and his deployment, and now the civil strife in Youzhou is imminent, and there is no time to take into account Yuan Shao's annexation, and Zhang He under his command was re-used by Yuan Shao to lead the troops to occupy the Jiepai Pass. Yuan Shao and Lu Bu combined forces to besiege Zhao Yun and Xu Huang in Pingyao, and Sima Du, who was stationed in Hongnong County, saw Zhao Yun's letter for help and refused to fight, so the two could only lead the remnants to retreat to the Linfen line. After Jia Xu, who was far away in Chang'an, learned the news, he mobilized Wei Yan to lead 10,000 horses to the rescue, and gave Zhao Yun three clever ways to stop Yuan Shao and Lu Bu.

Li Yu decided to absorb Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Beigong Boyu in order to strengthen his strength, and Guo Xi on the side of the imperial court naturally did not agree to do so, and now his descendants are on an equal footing with Li Yu, once he is successfully recruited, where will he have his own place. It's just that although Li Yu is arrogant, he doesn't know when there will be an extra strategist around him, this person looks very young and called Ma Yi, he is now very used by Li Yi, Li Yu asks Ma Yi for everything in order to compete with Guo Xi for authority. Regarding Jia Xu's attitude of not helping anyone to protect his life, Li Yu and Guo Xi did not bother too much, they both knew in their hearts that Jia Xu was terrible, as long as he didn't help one of them, then no one could easily win the other party.

"Lord Taiwei - something is wrong! You didn't go to the court this morning, Li Yu has already asked for the edict of the Son of Heaven to seal Xiliang Ma Teng as the general of Pingxi, Han Sui as the Jincheng Taishou, and Beigong Boyu as the general of Zhenxi. The three of them will go to Beijing to report on their work in the near future-"Guo Xi occasionally felt cold and felt a little unwell today, and he didn't go to participate in the early dynasty, where did he know that looking at this juncture, Li Yu made the first move, and enveloped the three forces of Xiliang in advance, but he didn't know that according to him, Sima Du of Hongnong County, Qian Yichuan and other generals took refuge under Li Yu, and he was only persuading Wei Yan to join now, and Zhao Yun and Xu Huang of Bingzhou were all talents, but the two did not make it clear which side to join, so Bingzhou was besieged by Yuan Shao and Lu Bu but no one rescued him. Wei Yan led the troops to rescue Zhao Yun and Xu Huang is a clever move by Guo Xi, and Xu Rong also secretly expressed his willingness to unite with him.

"Li Yu, this bastard-" Guo Xi was furious, he didn't expect Li Yu to grasp the timing so accurately, Guo Xi knew that Li Yu must have a master behind his back, and he reported in Li Yu's mansion that the newly recruited strategists under Li Yu's account were very important to him, and even regarded them as guests! Jia Xu's mansion has been closed to visitors, not receiving any outsiders, he can't ask Jia Xu if he wants to, and Li Yu's people are also secretly staring.

Regarding Guo Xifeng's anger, Li Yu soon knew that he was in a surprisingly good mood, so he had the idea of inspecting the city defense. Now Li Yu and Guo Ci's power is above the three dukes, and the patrol is naturally huge, and the soldiers on the left and right are personally guarded, and it is Ma Yi who travels with Li Yu, and Ma Yi disagrees with Li Yu's plan to go on patrol, and now they should lie dormant and wait for the arrival of the soldiers and horses of Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Beigong Boyu, and then defeat Guo Xi in one fell swoop, so that all the power will fall into the hands of Li Yu at that time.

"Peak Instructions - Do as planned!" Several masked men were hidden in a private house, and one of the leaders gathered them to deliver orders.

The street of Chang'an is the western capital of the Han Dynasty, and even when it was in decline, it was a very prosperous big city, and the streets were very lively. Suddenly, a caravan came to them, and as they walked, suddenly the wheel of the carriage broke, and as soon as the front stopped, the carriage behind followed, and in a short time the place was blocked.

"What's going on?" Li Yu was not accustomed to riding a horse on the streets since he became a lieutenant, and he asked him to build a magnificent carriage, which was decorated with silk curtains, and he was in a good mood when he walked, and found that the carriage stopped for a long time.

"Returning to Lord Taiwei - there is a carriage transporting grain in front of it that has broken down, and someone is unloading the goods on the truck, and the last general is arranging for people to clear the road." The guards on the side had already inquired clearly, and when they saw Li Yu asking, they immediately answered.

"Okay - as soon as possible!" The most important thing for such a thing Li Yu is in a good mood today and will not be held accountable, he thinks it is okay to wait. It's just that he didn't notice that the location of their convoy was flanked by houses and restaurants on the second floor, and the windows that were usually open were all closed at this time.

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

Li Yu heard the sound of bows and arrows outside when he was napping in the carriage, followed by the screams of the arrows, which suddenly woke him up from his dream, and he hurriedly shouted: "What happened? ”

"My lord—something is wrong! There are a lot of Assassins in ambush here, all of them have bows and arrows to shoot you, so don't move in your car for a while, there are guards outside to resist you! Ma Yi's voice came from the carriage, although it was Li Yu's advisor, but Ma Yi also pulled out the long sword at his waist and fired the bow and arrow back and forth, and at the moment when the assassin killed, the surrounding guards had already picked up their shields to protect Li Yu's carriage.

The outside began to jingle with shouts and screams, and the people on the street had already run away without a trace when they saw such a situation, that is, for a quarter of an hour, none of the assassins outside were able to break into Li Yu's carriage, and were all strangled by the Xiliang army that heard the news, and these assassins did not leave a single living mouth.

"My lord, the assassins outside have been cleared, and the lieutenant is leading his men and horses to disperse the houses to clear the remaining remnants of the enemy." Ma Yi's robe was also stained with some blood, and he reported the battle situation to Li Yu.

"But if you catch a live mouth, whoever eats the bear's heart leopard dares to assassinate me, check my own investigation, once I find out who did it, I must destroy his nine clans!" Li Yu stepped out of the carriage and saw the corpses of assassins and the corpses of Xiliang Jun lying on the street, and even saw that his carriage was full of arrows, if it weren't for these guards desperately guarding him, it is estimated that he would have died here a long time ago.

"My lord, the assassin seems to have come prepared, and there is nothing alive! Now we have to figure out where this batch of bows and arrows came from, and some guards in the army recognize these as bows and arrows in our army. Ma Yi also suspected that it was from Guo Ci's revenge, but it was difficult to make a conclusion, although the court was controlled by the two, but there were also many loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty who wanted to kill them, but he had already seen the next bloody storm, if it was Guo Ci, then he was just speeding up his death.

"Hmph-you must find out for me, it seems that there are a lot of people who want my life, go to Guo Ci's mansion!" The bows and arrows in the army are left in addition to Guo Ci can be called, so obviously in front of him is that Guo Ci wants his own life, Li Yu has already decided that Guo Ci is making trouble, since he is not dead, then he has to go to Guo Ci Xingshi to ask for guilt.
