"Sun Jian actually wants to support Yuan Yao?"

Wuling County.

Liu Hong was taken aback when he learned that Sun Jian chose to unite with Yuan Yao to deal with him.

He really didn't expect Sun Jian to choose to support Yuan Yao's guy so decisively.

Could it be because Yuan Shang and he forced Sun Jian to be anxious?

This support is not a simple support.

Once you make a statement, you choose a position and take sides.

But now Sun Jian is facing Yuan Shang and his two-sided attack.

If you choose to join Yuan Yao's camp.

Yuan Shang is also bound to shift some of his attention to Yuan Yao.

In this way, Yuan Yao will have to bear the pressure brought by Yuan Shang.

and other princely forces coveted its prying eyes.

So for Yuan Yao.

It is also very risky to rashly agree to an alliance with Sun Jian.

Especially when Ji Ling died and the army temporarily lacked generals.

It's just that Liu Hong didn't expect it.

Not long after Sun Jian's statement.

Yuan Yao immediately agreed to form an alliance with Sun Jian.

and immediately sent 100,000 troops to Chang'an City, intending to besiege Wei and rescue Zhao.

Liu Hong's face immediately changed when he heard the news.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Yao actually launched a direct attack on Chang'an City.

He immediately summoned all the generals to the meeting and planned to discuss whether to withdraw the troops and return to the defense.

Otherwise, just rely on the pitiful strength of Chang'an City.

I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for three or four days.

"Your Majesty, the last general thinks that now Yuan Yao and Sun Jian are allied, and Yuan Shang is Sun Jian's enemy."

"The alliance we mentioned earlier should be on the agenda."

"It's better to form an alliance with Yuan Shang as soon as possible, and let the other party send a team of soldiers and horses to protect Chang'an City."

Cheng Pu opened his mouth to suggest.

Hearing this, Liu Hong lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded slightly, and said, "Now that the matter is now, the only way to seek an alliance with Yuan Shang is to seek an alliance." ”

"I'll leave this matter to you."

Liu Hong is still very satisfied with the ability of this demoted general.

Whether it is strategy or force, he can be regarded as a good general.

If it weren't for him, he would not be prepared to lead the army to attack.

Maybe it hasn't gnawed Wuling County until now, and it's not necessarily.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Cheng Pu nodded, turned around and was about to leave.

Just happened to bump into a herald head-on.

"Your Majesty! Yuan Shang's eight hundred miles of urgent letters! ”

The herald said in a hurried tone, and then handed a letter to Liu Hong.

The latter looked stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but open the letter with some curiosity.

After reading this letter, Liu Hong's originally constricted brows stretched again.

I saw him look around, and then slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air as if relieved, and said, "Everyone, we don't have to worry about the comfort of Chang'an City now. ”

"Yuan Shang also sent an army of 100,000 to guard Chang'an City."

"But he made it clear that he didn't want to form an alliance with us, and he did it out of checks and balances."

"But the condition we need to pay is that after conquering Yangzhou, we will cede two-thirds of the counties to him."

Hearing this, the generals glanced at each other, and they all saw a touch of joy in each other's eyes.

Although two-thirds of Yangzhou should be distributed to Yuan Shang.

But after all, the other party is strong.

Maybe we can grab two-thirds or more in the end.

So this time they didn't lose.

And because of Yuan Shang's dispatch of troops this time.

It can make many people confused about their relationship.

Then the next time Yuan Yao wants to attack Chang'an City again, he must take into account Yuan Shang's existence.

"Prepare the whole army!"

"Follow me on the expedition and immediately send troops to Yangzhou!"

"Since there are no worries, then we will him hard!"

Hearing this, the generals were full of fighting spirit.

It's finally time for war.

The opportunity for meritorious service has come!

After several days of preparation and rest, Liu Hong's 100,000-strong army almost reached its peak in combat effectiveness.

After getting the order.

A whole army of 100,000 people slaughtered towards Yuzhang County.

Yuzhang County is the gate of the hinterland of Yangzhou.

As long as you can break this door.

Then Liu Hong can lead the army directly into Sun Jian's hinterland and completely disintegrate Yangzhou from the inside.

The movements of the 100,000-strong army naturally could not be concealed from Sun Jian in Yangzhou.

learned that Liu Hong's 100,000 army was coming.

Sun Jian didn't dare to hold it up, and directly sent the most luxurious lineup under his command.

With Zhou Yu as the commander, Zhou Tai, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Xu Sheng, Tai Shici and Pan Zhang's six tiger ministers as generals, led an army of 100,000 to guard Yuzhang County.

If Liu Hong knew that Sun Jian had sent such a luxurious lineup, he would definitely exclaim that Sun Jian looked up to himself too much.

Almost all the core combat forces under Sun Jian's command were dispatched.

Even beating Yuan Shang only sent Sun Ce alone.

In fact, these people were all left by Sun Jian to guard against Liu Hong.

This time, he happened to be sent to Yuzhang County to defend.

I just don't know how.

Perhaps it was a spy from other forces hidden in Sun Jian's army.

The news that Sun Jian was going all out to face Liu Hong quickly spread to all forces.

Liu Hong couldn't help but be a little stunned when he learned that he was going to face such a strong lineup.

Zhou Yu is a well-known figure in the history books, and his intelligence is second only to Zhuge Liang.

It's just that now Zhuge Liang doesn't know where he went after being captured by Nanban.

Otherwise, Liu Hong wouldn't have to worry so much.

Now that Lu Bu's serious injuries have just healed, Duan Xuan's strength is just an ordinary second-rate general.

Liu Hong glanced at his army and found that there were very few generals who could handle it now.

Most of them are still Liu Biao's foundation.

However, Gan Ning is now guarding Chang'an City with Huang Zhong.

In addition to Lu Bu, the generals of the army are Ma Chao and Wen Ping.

Although Ma Chao and diploma martial arts are strong.

But in the face of the six military generals, Liu Hong also felt that these two were difficult to stop.

For a while, Liu Hong was in trouble.

In fact, the strength of the generals themselves does not have much impact on a war.

The real impact lies in boosting morale and strategy.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly.

The role of the generals is to quickly point out the direction of the army in this rapidly changing battlefield.

Killing the opponent's generals can also frustrate their spirits.

It can be said that Liu Hong's army lacks generals, and it is still difficult to conquer Yuzhang County.

But even so, it doesn't mean that Liu Hong will back down.

In short, Yuzhang County is bound to gnaw down.

And when Liu Hong was worried about the generals.

Yuan Yao was also worried about the commander of the three armies.

In terms of ability, there is not much difference between these generals under his account.

However, if you are in command of the three armies, there are still some shortcomings.

"Lord, Yang Hong once met a person who was strong in martial arts and well-read in military books, and was a rare general."

"If this person is in command of the three armies, he will definitely not be weaker than General Ji Ling."

"What's more, this person still hasn't served Lord Ming now, why don't you let Yang Hong try, can you recruit this person into the army?"

Yang Hong said.

Hearing this, Yuan Yao's eyes suddenly lit up.
