Yuan Shu had a calculation in his heart, and the previous gloomy mood was swept away, and he decided to repair and repair in Jiujiang.

Speaking of which, it has to be mentioned that the Jiujiang region that Yuan Shu fled to was not Jiujiang, Jiangxi, but Huainan.

Nowadays, the situation in all regions of the Han Dynasty can be said to be chaotic and orderly.

Among them, the most powerful person is headed by Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo occupies the Yongzhou and Sili regions, and radiates the Bingzhou and Liangzhou regions.

Although the Bingzhou and Liangzhou regions can be counted as Dong Zhuo's territory, the control of these two states is far from being comparable to Yongzhou.

Even the Luoyang area of the original division can't be compared.

After all, the Sili area is Dong Zhuo's main war zone now, and only when Sili is completely stabilized can it be fully incorporated into Dong Zhuo's territory.

Dong Zhuo in Liangzhou is exerting influence through Ma Teng and Han Sui, and as for merging with the state, Zhang Liao, Xu Rong, and Jia Xu are currently conducting a step-by-step strategy.

If the state theater is to be completely decided, it will take some time.

When the annexed states are stabilized, the strategic deployment, the implementation of government decrees, and the entanglement between local interest groups will also be troublesome.

Therefore, Dong Zhuo's influence is in the northwest region of the Han Dynasty, and Dong Zhuo's strength is not followed by Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, but Gongsun Zhan who is now in Youzhou.

Gongsun Chan started in Youzhou, and now Tiankai, the assassin of Qingzhou, is under the command of Gongsun Zhan, so that Gongsun Chan can control Youzhou and Qingzhou.

However, now that Gongsun Chan has Liu Yu and has contradictions with him, Qingzhou has suffered a great loss of strength because of the Yellow Turban Thief, and Gongsun Chan's real power is a little weaker than what he sees on the surface.

Under Gongsun Zan are the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shao is now in control of Jizhou, which is richer than Youzhou, but because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many people have fled to the relatively remote Youzhou.

But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the Jizhou heritage is placed there, so Yuan Shao can compete with Gongsun Zan with the land of a state.

At the same time, Yuan Shao was born in a famous family, and the family was naturally more optimistic about Yuan Shao than Gongsun Zhan.

Because of this, Yuan Shao received much more support than Gongsun Zan because of his family.

Yuan Shao's war potential was far from being comparable to Gongsun Zhan.

As for Yuan Shu, the son-in-law of the Yuan family, if Yuan Shao belongs to the family business alone, then Yuan Shu can be regarded as inheriting most of the Yuan family's heritage.

The Yuan family in Runan is located in Yuzhou, and the influence of the Yuan family in Yuzhou is not comparable to other families, and the strength of Yuan Shu was far stronger than Yuan Shao before.

However, it may be because Yuan Shu is too inflated, which has led to a big loss of strength now.

Yuan Shuben planned to take Yuzhou as the base, according to the land of Nanyang, attack Jingzhou, and bring the entire area south of the Yangtze River into his control.

However, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck; A fierce general like Sun Jian died in Jingzhou, which made Yuan Shu's entire plan completely bankrupt.

Of course, this is also because Yuan Shu underestimated Liu Biao.

Liu Biao, as a first-class figure among the Han clan relatives, how could he be so easy to get along with?

Since Yuan Shu sent troops to Jingzhou, how could Liu Biao sit idly by?

It only took Liu Biao a year to integrate the clans within Jingzhou, which is not a high measure.

After solving the internal problems in Jingzhou, Liu Biao made a decisive attack to cut off Yuan Shu's grain route in Nanyang.

Liu Biao did not move, and his movements were amazing, and after he cut off Yuan Shu's grain road, he directly brought Nanyang County into his control.

It was precisely because of this operation that Yuan Shu dispelled the idea of continuing to attack Jingzhou and instead marched to the land of Yanzhou.

However, what he didn't expect was that Cao Cao had pacified the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou at this time, and Cao Cao's strength increased greatly after being replenished by troops.

Yuan Shu was beaten by Cao Cao, and had to change his strategy and think about attacking the southeast region.

The southeast region is also Yangzhou.

The densely populated places of the Han Dynasty were all in the northern region, not to mention the Chang'an and Luoyang regions, and the rest of the regions were the richest in Jizhou, Qingzhou and Yanzhou.

Today's Yangzhou is not the rich and prosperous place of later generations.

Attacking the land of Yangzhou is a last resort for Yuan Shu, because Yangzhou is still in a state to be developed.

All right.

It's kind of good to be developed.

To put it bluntly, it is a barbarian land with lush vegetation, shrubs, and "wild people".

The so-called "savages" do not refer to the real savages, of course, but to the indigenous people of the uncivilized areas of the south.

In the eyes of the families of the northern brocade and jade, these natives are naturally representatives of the savages.

This is not only the case in Yangzhou, but also in Jingzhou.

The reason why Yangzhou and Jingzhou have prospered is entirely because of the war in the north, countless families and people have migrated and fled to the south in order to live a stable life.

But they don't know that there is a stable place in this world.

The migration of the population from the north to the south has brought a lot of fresh blood to Jingzhou and Yangzhou.

Although it is very difficult to resettle, it is much better than the chaos in the north.

Stability, peace, and prosperity are what everyone yearns for, and there really is such a place in the Han Dynasty.

That is the land of abundance, Yizhou.

Merely......

Yizhou is not so easy to enter, and the inconvenient transportation has put an end to the thoughts of the vast majority of people.

It is difficult to go to Shu and it is difficult to go to the sky.

It is more difficult than heaven, so it is not impossible for people to flee to Yizhou, but there are many fewer people who flee to Jingzhou and Yangzhou.

At this time, Liu Yan in Yizhou and Liu Biao in Jingzhou, the two Han clan relatives, were considered to be the heroes of the separating side.

As for Cao Cao.

Cao Cao......

Today's Cao Cao is actually not in the eyes of others, not only Yuan Shu, but most of them are also this idea.

Cao Cao!

Isn't that one of Yuan Shao's followers!

If Dong Zhuo knew what others were thinking, he would probably let out a burst of wild laughter.

Then spit out a sentence, Cao Cao is the strongest follower in history!

It is precisely because of this idea that in Yuan Shu's view, Yanzhou assassin Liu Dai died, then Yanzhou is a borderless land, and he has no problem attacking Yanzhou at all.

Although Cao Cao, this kid, has led soldiers and fought battles, but against himself is not a matter of being captured?

How do you know that Cao Cao, who was active in Yanzhou, is now capable!

It was something he didn't expect.

Since then, Cao Cao has also officially ascended to the top of the food chain of the Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao also evolved from Yuan Shao's "small follower" to "big follower".

Yuan Shu's idea is not only him, but another person in Xuzhou also has the same idea.

That is the Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian, whose strength is still above Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Liu Yan in Yizhou!

Xuzhou

Pengcheng

Although Tao Qian has reached the age of sixties, his body still looks tough, his face is thin, his eyes are abrupt, and he is embarrassed, giving people a sense of not being angry and self-assured.

Tao Qian swept his gaze over the people below, and slowly spoke: "The remnants of the Yellow Turban are in turmoil, and Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, is dead. ”

"Now the army has arrived in Taishan County."

"You should make follow-up arrangements, so that you can be handy when you resettle the displaced people."

The officials below glanced at each other and said in unison, "Your Excellency's order." ”

Tao Qian swept his beard, full of confidence.
