For a time, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, regained control of Sizhou Luoyang, Chang'an Erjing, and Lu Zhihuang Fu Song and other old ministers came to escort him.

However, at the critical moment, Wang Yun fell out with a group of courtiers, and couldn't wait to ride on Liu Xie's head and follow Yi Yin Huoguang's old story.

As a result, the advantageous situation of chasing and beating the water dogs changed, and the court was in chaos, hostile to each other, and fought endlessly, giving Li Ru and Li Wei a rare respite.

Li Ru was ruthless: "The Taishi is dead, if we surrender with our hands, we will die without a place to be buried, if we return to Liangzhou, Lu Zhi Lao'er has already laid a net of heaven and earth, for today's plan, only by capturing Chang'an and capturing the Son of Heaven can we live!" ”

All the generals knew that this was an existential crisis, and it was time for desperate efforts.

So he gathered more than 300,000 elites and besieged Chang'an City.

When the battle was fierce, almost everyone changed into demons, and it seemed like the end of the world for a while.

Even if there are famous generals such as Lu Bu and Huangfu Song in the city, they can't resist it at all, but after ten days of fighting, Chang'an City is already in danger.

At the critical moment, Huangfu Song requested to move the capital and move the capital back to Luoyang.

Only Wang Yun shouted "the Son of Heaven is dead", and he refused to retreat.

At this time, it is important to save your life, the Xiliang army has become a demon, and when the city is broken, the Son of Heaven may not be able to live, let alone a hundred officials?

So everyone did not hesitate to regard Wang Yun as a madman, and the wind was tight, and they went straight to Luoyang.

Liu Xie, the son of heaven, handed over the affairs of guarding Tongguan to the hussar general Lu Bu, making Lu Bu's teeth itch with anger and just want to scold his mother.

Even if he killed Dong Zhuo with his own hands, the Son of Heaven was only close to Huangfu Song Lu Zhi and did not trust him, the former son of Dong Zhuo.

Tongguan is dangerous, but there is no room for development at all, Lu Bu is now a dignified and gentle hussar general, so he naturally has a heart of self-reliance.

As for the direction, it is also very simple, naturally it is his hometown, and the state land.

The Bingzhou wolf rider who was once loyal to Dong Zhuo almost most of them secretly took refuge in Lu Bu, his own person, and now Lu Bu still has 80,000 elite soldiers in his hands, and he has absolute capital.

The state is now in a state of ownerlessness, which is a very rare opportunity.

It's just that the Son of Heaven handed over Tongguan to himself to guard, isn't it a bit too much to say goodbye?

So Lu Buxiu wrote a letter and told the Son of Heaven that he had decided to go to the Han Dynasty to guard and annex the state, and set off three days later.

Liu Xie had just returned to Luoyang City, where he was born and raised, and his ass had not yet sat down, when he received the bad news.

By the time Huangfu Song hurriedly led the army to Tongguan, there was only one guard and a thousand soldiers left.

"The last general, Zhang Liao, on the orders of the hussar general, handed over the protection of Tongguan to the cavalry general!" Zhang Liao just saluted on his horse, and then led a thousand knights to go away.

"What a son of man!" Huangfu gritted his teeth angrily, but he was helpless.

He didn't dare to hold Lu Bu responsible, after all, he was still a loyal minister on the surface and the first hero to assassinate Dong Zhuo.

If Lu Bu is really forced again, the Han family will be completely destroyed.

Dong Zhuo died suddenly, and Bingzhou has become a power vacuum, Youzhou Zhang Jiao, Jizhou Yuan Shao and Changshan Gongsun Zan all marched into Bingzhou at the first time, wanting to take a bite.

Fortunately, Lu Bu marched quickly, and successively pacified the three counties of Hedong, Xihe, and Taiyuan, and took the most essence of the state in his hands.

Zhang Jiao occupied Yanmen County, Gongsun Zhan annexed Xinxing County, and Yuan Shao annexed Leping County.

In the land directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, only the three counties of Hongnong, Hanoi, and Henan remained, but fortunately, there was also a group of loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, so that Liu Xie was no longer a puppet and could enjoy the real authority of the Son of Heaven.

At the same time, Cao Cao's father died in Xuzhou.

Cao Cao was angry and led a large army to attack Xuzhou.

Xuzhou assassin Shi Taoqian, and hurriedly asked Kong Rong and Liu Bei for help.

In these years, Liu Bei can be said to be a good person with a reputation throughout Qingxu and Xuzhou, helping the nearby Taishou to continuously quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which can be called Donglai timely rain.

Liu Bei and Cao Cao also had a lot of friendship when the princes were courting Dong, and they wanted to resolve their grievances for both sides.

However, Cao Cao's revenge on his father is fake, and the annexation of Xuzhou is true, how can he be willing to withdraw from the army?

When Liu Bei was entangled, Yan Liangwen, the general under Yuan Shao, had already crossed the river and sent troops to Qingzhou, Jinan and Le'an counties.

For a time, Qingzhou became Yuan Shao's meal, and Xuzhou became Cao Cao's bag.

Liu Bei didn't even know who to support.

At this moment, Kong Rong finally said a fair word: "Xuande, all these years, we have been able to continue to hold real power, all thanks to your protection and kindness!" Now Yuan Shao is eyeing Qingzhou, and Cao Cao is eyeing Xuzhou, they are all tigers and wolves, and there is no Xuande Gong You are generous and benevolent. After I Kong Beihai is Confucius, no matter who wins Qingzhou, I will be held high, but if you are ambitious, I am willing to write to the county guards and jointly serve you as the lord of Qingzhou! ”

Liu Bei was simply overjoyed, he had been serving as Donglai Taishou for almost fifteen years, and finally won the opportunity to enter Qingzhou with benevolence!

So after a series of vertical and horizontal combinations, the three counties of Beihai, Chengyang, and Langya joined Liu Bei's command one after another.

It's a pity that Kong Rong is just a celebrity, not a mastermind, and continues to eat, drink and have fun, but he can't provide Liu Bei with strategic planning.

At the same time, Yuan Shu attacked the two counties of Lujiang and Huainan in Yangzhou.

Sun Jian shifted his direction and no longer sought Changsha, but also turned to Yangzhou, where his army attacked Luling and Yuzhang, and the eldest son Sun Ce and Zhou Yu attacked Huiji along the coastal road.

Liu Bei and Tao Qian formed an alliance against Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

Liu Bei ordered Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to lead the main force to guard Beihai to prevent Yuan Shao's invasion, and personally marshal Tai Shici Zhao Yun to go to Xuzhou to support Tao Qian.

Now that Qingxu Erzhou is cold and dead, watching and helping each other, Liu Bei has also let go, and pulled out all the 50,000 troops he had carefully built in fifteen years.

Beihai County.

Yuan Shao's army looked at the wind everywhere along the way, Jinan, Le'an, and Qi counties did not resist at all, and the vanguard general Yan Liang was naturally not satisfied, and led an army of 30,000 to Beihai.

At the head of Beihai City, the guard is Guan Yu.

Since the discussion of Dong, more than ten years have passed, Guan Yu has grown to the peak, and now ranks fourth on the list of military generals, only below Wang Yue Tongyuan and Lu Budianwei.

It's just that for so many years, he could only deal with bandits, and most of the time was spent on labor, construction, and teaching, so that the world seemed to have forgotten his prestige.

Anyway, Yan Liang was very unconvinced, he fought in the south and the north, and fought for the lord in many states and counties, but unfortunately he needed to guard his hometown at the beginning, and he failed to participate in the battle against Dong, which made Guan Yu take advantage of it and became famous overnight.

Back then, Guan Yu killed Huaxiong with warm wine, jumping from the first to the seventh place on the list of military generals, but I didn't know that today I Yan Liang couldn't beat Guan Yu with warm wine, and jumped directly from ninth to fourth?

Under Beihai City, the two armies faced each other, and the front was very long, mainly for fear of being endowed by various Taoism.

Yan Liang wanted to take the opportunity to weigh Guan Yu's strength, if he could really get down, it would be a rare opportunity to jump to the fourth place on the list of generals.

Then in front of tens of thousands of soldiers of the two armies, the classics were recreated.

Guan Yu rushed on the horse, lifted the green dragon knife upside down, the phoenix's eyes were round, the silkworm eyebrows were straight, and he rushed straight to the other side. The Hebei army cracked like a wave, Yan Liang was shocked, resisted in a hurry, and then with a knife in time, his head fell to the ground.

Yuan Shaojun was horrified and fled in a hurry.

Guan Zhang and his elite pursued the north, and tens of thousands of prisoners were killed.

Wen Chou was frightened and didn't dare to go further.

Yuan Shao hurriedly sent Tian Feng to sit in the town, and the two armies confronted each other in Beihai County, and there was no longer a large-scale war.

Yuan Shao was also attacked on all sides, Zhang Jiao and Gongsun Zan in the north, Huang Zhong in the west, Cao Cao in the south, and Liu Bei in the east.

To the south, Liu Bei was caught in a bitter battle.

Zhao Yuntai and Shi Ci are all the top ten generals on the list of military generals, but there are also Dian Wei Xu Chu in the Cao army's array, plus Guo Jia's drama Zhicai Cheng Yu and others have successively performed mystical Taoist techniques and laid out a large array, so the Qingxu coalition army has been defeated and retreated, losing Peng Cheng and Xiaopei successively, and can only retreat to Xiapi County.

At the critical moment, Chen Deng offered a plan, secretly wrote a letter, and pretended to beg Cao Cao for mercy, but secretly passed the news to Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

Cao Cao took the opportunity to avenge his father, and had successively annexed Lu County, Dongguan County, Liang County, and Qian County, and occupied Pengcheng and Xiaopei, so it can be said that he took the opportunity to annex many prefectures and counties in Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and doubled his territory.

If Xuzhou really can't bear to surrender, and then let Cao Cao take advantage of the situation to kill Liu Bei, wouldn't it occupy the land of Qing, Yan, and Xu overnight?

Neither Yuan Shao nor Yuan Shu could bear this.

Yuan Shao in the north will accept it when he sees it, anyway, the three counties of Jinan have already started, but it is a pity that Yan Liang has been broken, and sooner or later he will take revenge.

So Yuan Shao and Liu Bei signed an agreement to divide Qingzhou according to the facts, and the two sides ceased fighting.

Guan Yu sent Zhang Fei to lead an elite army of 20,000 to the south to support the eldest brother.

Yuan Shu also Chen soldiers of 50,000 near Chen Liu, threatening Cao Cao's back road.

Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou for more than two years in a row, and the grain and grass could no longer hold on, so he had to retreat.

Only cut a place in Pengcheng, Xuzhou, and obtained a lot of compensation, that's all.

After this battle, Tao Qian realized his own shortcomings, and in this troubled world, he had no ability to be partial to peace, so it was better to hand over the foundation and become a rich man with peace of mind.

But this person who entrusts the foundation must be a benevolent and righteous person, otherwise his family will become a pig and sheep to be slaughtered sooner or later.

In this way, Tao Qian had no choice at all, so he could only give Xuzhou to Liu Bei.

In the war with Cao Cao, Liu Bei was defeated again and again, very tenacious, and the army under his command was defeated but not defeated, and his bravery was extraordinary.

Wherever the sergeant went, he did not commit any crimes, and he was an absolute king, which was also recognized by many people in Xuzhou.

So with the support of Chen Deng, Mi Zhu and others, Liu Bei entered Xuzhou in a daze, and became the lord of Qingxu and Xu in an instant, and became the biggest winner in this five-party melee between Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, and Tao Qian.

Cao Cao was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and after some operation by himself, he finally only got the land of four counties, but Liu Bei Xiao'er jumped directly from one county to the lord of two states!

Although Chen Deng is not the most top-notch resourceful, he also has a basic strategy.

He offered advice to Liu Bei, saying that Eryuan and Cao Cao are both the top princes in the world, and they can't compete with them.

And Yangzhou in the south, now a county and a guard, a plate of scattered sand, not a monolith, and Yuan Shu, Liu Biao and Sun Jian all have ambitions for Yangzhou, so they should seek it quickly.

Liu Bei was overjoyed after hearing this, regarded Chen Deng as the mastermind, and left his second brother Guan Yu in Qingzhou, and his third brother Zhang Fei stayed in Xuzhou.

Liu Biao's vanguard Huang Zu and Sun Jian himself competed for Yuzhang, and Sun Jian did not listen to the dissuasion of the audience and ventured into the formation of Huang Zu's army.

However, among Huang Zu's army, there was a large array set up by Pang Degong and Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui, like a dragon rope, trapping Sun Jian to death.

Sun Jian fought to the death for nine days, but was never able to break through, and was finally consumed alive.

In the end, Yuzhang County came under the rule of Liu Biao, and Sun Jian's troops snatched out Sun Jian's body and carried the coffin all the way back to Jiaozhou.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu had already attacked Shaoxing for a generation, but when they heard the news of Sun Jian's death, they hurriedly led the army back to Jiaozhou, leaving only a few elite soldiers on the front line to guard.

And Liu Bei advanced with two armies by land and water, and easily took Wu County, and his opponent was Liu Xuan, the clan of the Han family.

Liu Miao was originally a assassin in Yangzhou and ruled Shouchun, but he was driven across the river by Yuan Shu, but he was attacked by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei and Liu Miao are both relatives of the Han family and should have helped each other, but Liu Miao's Yangzhou has become the last piece of fat in the world, and no one wants to miss it.

Liu Xie, the son of heaven, was also quite helpless about this, and he didn't know who to help.

In any case, there are still many clans in the world, such as Liu Yan, Liu Biao, Liu Bei, Liu Xuan, etc., as well as a number of local loyal ministers such as Lu Zhi and Huang Zhong, and nearly half of the prefectures and counties in the world are under the name of the Han family.

In the end, Liu Bei and Liu Miao only fought a little bit, did not hurt the peace, and divided the sphere of influence.

Liu Bei took Wu County and Huiji County, and Liu Miao still owned the three counties of Danyang, Luling and Lujiang.

However, these three counties have been regarded by Yuan Shu and Liu Biao as meat on a plate, and they are in danger.

In just three years, Liu Bei became a top prince in the land of Beihai, Donglai, Chengyang, Langya, Donghai, Guangling, Xiapi, Pei, Wu and Huiji.

It's a pity that the land under its jurisdiction is long and narrow, from north to south, bordering Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Liu Xuan and Sun Ce respectively, and the pressure on the town is very huge.

The weakest is Xuzhou in the middle, once it is broken through, it can't be taken care of.

Fortunately, Liu Bei developed the shipping industry in order to fish, and he could rely on the sea for transportation.

Liu Bei took his second brother Guan Yu to Qingzhou, and his third brother Zhang Fei to Yangzhou, and personally sat in Xuzhou.

It's a pity that because the prefectures and counties were all surrendered, the family and the powerful could not move lightly, and it was difficult for Liu Bei to fully implement the same reforms as Donglai under his rule.

In particular, the three counties of Beihai, Xiapi and Guangling have the most families, led by the Confucian family, the Tao family and the Chen family.

Liu Bei had to implement the "Red Flag Datong Sutra" in other counties first, and swallowed too much territory at once, and ate too much and was a little indigestible.

So in the seventh year of Jian'an (212), most of the heroes who were once on the power list have been wiped out, and the rest are the top princes of the interstate county.

First, Liu Xie, the son of the Han Dynasty.

Second, Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao.

Third, Yuzhou Mu Yuan Shu.

Fourth, the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao.

Fifth, Xuzhou Mu Liu Bei.

Sixth, Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao.

Seventh, Jiaozhou Mu Sun Ce.

Eighth, Yizhou Mu Liu Yan.

Ninth, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao.

Tenth, and the state of Mu Lu Bu.

Eleventh, Xiliang Li Ru.

Twelfth, Pingbei General Gongsun Zhan.

The thirteenth, the general Lu Zhi.

The fourteenth, Yangzhou Thorn History Liu Xuan.

The fourteenth, Zhenbei General Huang Zhong.

Fifteenth, Goguryeo Zhu Hui.

That's right, the princes of Chixian Shenzhou are only sixteen left, and all the others have been conquered and wiped out.

Yuan Shao occupied ten counties in Jizhou, three counties in Qingzhou, and one county in the state, and his strength jumped to the first place in the world.

Yuan Shu occupies eight counties in Yuzhou, two counties in Yangzhou, and one county in Jingzhou, second only to Yuan Shao.

Zhang Jiaoping exterminated Xianbei and ruled fifteen counties, but the population was insufficient and relatively desolate.

Liu Bei picked up two prefectures and ten counties in a daze, but he had indigestion and was difficult to unify.

Cao Cao is the first worker in the world, three years of war, only four counties, now under the rule of Yanzhou six counties, Yuzhou three counties, Xuzhou one county, because of the war population withering, only ranked fifth.

Of the thirteen states in the world, there are already eight state pastors, and the Han can't go back.

Next, the entire Chixian Shenzhou ushered in a rare time of peace.

All the soft persimmons have been pinched, and everyone is busy integrating their own internal forces, and constantly building, paying equal attention to cultivation and riots, and for a time the world is peaceful and there is no war.

However, in the past 30 years of conquest, the population of Chixian Shenzhou has dropped sharply from 5 billion to 3 billion, and I don't know how many people have turned into white bones.

And above the sky, Li Mi overlooks the changes in the world, although Liu Bei has not had a plan in the early stage, so that there is no strategic planning, and he is confined to a small place in Donglai.

But time is not wasted, Liu Bei completely built Donglai County into a base, and prepared to build a 50,000-person scale, per capita Jindan, all officers are Yuanying's elite army.

It is precisely because of this top elite army and the hundreds of thousands of reserve talents who practiced the "Red Flag Datong Sutra" that Liu Bei was able to base Yuan Shao in the north, retreat to Cao Cao in the west, and conquer Yangzhou in the south, withstanding the pressure from all directions.

Moreover, in the name of benevolence, he also gained the trust of the people of Qingxu and Xu in a very short period of time, from the assassin Shi Taishou to the trust of the people of Limin, and achieved a miracle that no strategic plan dared to imagine.

In three years, he changed from a county to the lord of three states.

It's just that hidden dangers have been planted.

Liu Bei's territory was too narrow and long, and he had borders with almost all the top princes.

Once the enemies are united, there is a danger of direct annihilation.

Internally, because the states and counties are all "contributed", Liu Bei is burdened with benevolence and righteousness, but it is no longer possible to carry out such drastic reforms and liquidations as Donglai County.

Internal and external troubles have always plagued Liu Bei, but this is already a better situation than Li Mi imagined.

If there is no "Red Flag Datong Sutra", if there are no more than 100,000 monks of the way of Datong cultivated in the past 20 years, even if Liu Bei has an adventure and can enter Qingzhou, Xuzhou, it is impossible to retain the fruits of victory.

There are still two years left before the next Tianji List reward and Luda and others arrive in Chixian Shenzhou.

And Li Mi's own Taoism has finally advanced to the extreme of the Immortal True Monarch, and his Nine Heavenly Tribulations are coming.
