With the Northern Expedition of the Jingzhou Army and the relocation of Cao Pi's capital to Yecheng, the morale of the Cao army was extremely low, and the people of the Central Plains were terrified, and even affected the Xuzhou and Qingzhou fronts on the East Road.

Cao Ren confronted Sun Quan's army in Huainan, with Sima Yi as the military division, and the two armies clashed several times, winning and losing each other, but unexpectedly Zhou Yu attacked Qingzhou from the waterway, and Xiahou urgently supervised the army to the north to rescue.

Since Cao Cao pacified the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, although the territory was stable, more than 100,000 Qingzhou soldiers participated in the war, the territory was barren, the development was extremely slow, the troops were empty, and they were attacked by Liaodong and Dongwu on both roads, and Donglai County was lost in half a month.

Liaodong general Liu Yi had seized Donglai for several years, served as the assassin of Yingzhou, and then expelled the Cao army.

Zhou Yu led the naval army to the north from the sea route, from Laoshan to attack Chengyang County in the south of Qingzhou, the garrison was high, and the north road Dangli Liaodong Army echoed the north and south, and attacked Beihai together.

Fortunately, Beihai Taishou Tian Yu used his troops to withdraw the defenders of Jiaodong and other places, and made every effort to defend Beihai, so as to stabilize the situation, and the garrison calmed the people's hearts and waited for reinforcements to arrive.

It turned out that when Cao Cao marched north to Wuhuan, Qingzhou Yellow Turban remnants Xu He, Sima Ju, etc., killed Liu Yun, the king of Jinan, rebelled, Xiahou Yuan led his troops to quell the rebellion, Cao Cao saw that Tianyu Town was on the side, and worshiped Beihai Taishou to lead the Qingzhou soldiers to supervise the town of Qingzhou.

Qingzhou Assassin Shi Cheng Xi led the troops to Beihai, and then discussed with Tian Yu, and the troops were divided into two routes, each leading an army to repel the incoming enemy.

Tian Yu said: "Zhou Yu is a heroic man in Jiangdong, both civil and military, and knows the art of war, so he can't rush to meet the enemy. ”

Cheng Xi sneered: "The army invaded the territory, but did not meet the enemy, wouldn't it sit back and wait for death?" If Tian Taishou doesn't dare to fight against Wu Jun, hand it over to Yu So, how about you deal with Liu Yi? ”

Tian Yu persuaded: "A letter from the court, the prince has sent someone to Liaodong to send a message, and crowned Gongsun Kang Guanjue, in order to divide Eastern Wu, at this time, you must not send troops, otherwise the two will be united." ”

Cheng Xi said angrily: "A certain is the history of Qingzhou Thorn, his job is to protect the territory, and the prime minister ordered you to supervise the army to guard it, but he is so cowardly and cowardly, how can he share the worries of the court?" ”

It turned out that Cheng Xi had been dissatisfied with Tian Yu to supervise the Qingzhou military as Taishou, and the two had been secretly at odds.

At this time, Tian Yu hesitated to go to war, and was in the middle of his arms, although Tian Yu was heavily influenced by Cao Cao, but it was rumored that Cao Cao was seriously ill and marched north, and it was likely that he would never return.

Tian Yu was still persuading hard, but Cheng Xi didn't care, and divided his troops to face Zhou Yu in the south, wanting to fight and gain prestige, which attracted Cao Pi's attention.

Zhou Yu is famous in Jiangdong, and he is also a famous general today, Jiangdong Foundation has half of his credit, and it is rumored that this person has a strategy, if he can defeat him, he will become famous.

Cheng Xi led his troops south, camped in Weishui, and discussed with Cheng Xiong and Yang Yong on how to break the enemy.

Cheng Xiyan said: "People say that Jiangdong Zhou Lang has both civil and military skills, is familiar with the art of war, and is a genius in the sky, we need to be cautious again and again, what is the best strategy for the two?" ”

Cheng Xiong said with a smile: "Although Zhou Yu is good at using troops in Jiangdong, he is just relying on the Jiangdong naval army, he is only familiar with water warfare, but he is not accustomed to land warfare. ”

Yang Yong nodded and said: "What General Cheng said is extremely true, Zhou Yu's sneak attack on the East China Sea, although it has a miraculous effect, but the lone army is outside, and it cannot be allowed to have a foothold. ”

Although Cheng Xi said big things in front of Tian Yu, he was still a little jealous of Zhou Yu, listening to the words of the two generals, his confidence suddenly increased, and he nodded: "The two generals are reasonable, the former prime minister went south, and Yu Weisu was defeated. ”

Cheng Xiong laughed and said: "If there was no courage of Sun Ce in the past, Zhou Yuyan would have been able to achieve something?" The battle of Huainan was defeated by the prime minister, it can be seen that it is only a false name, and now when the country is in crisis, we will make meritorious service and defeat Zhou Yu, and we will surely become famous. If my brother is reused, he will be transferred to the Central Plains to fight against Guan Yu and other famous generals, so as to show my brother's ability. ”

Cheng Xi smiled when he heard this, and said loudly: "My brother has been in the army for nearly ten years, and he is fortunate to be promoted by the prime minister, so he can be useful. ”

Cheng Xiong hugged his fists and said: "I heard that Zhou Yu is proud, this time I will go north to have the heart of the enemy, the younger brother is willing to lead 5,000 elite soldiers, first go to test the reality of the Wu army, and first break its vanguard to boost morale." ”

"This is exactly what I want, so that Tian Yu also knows the courage of our army." Cheng Xi was overjoyed, so he ordered Cheng Xiong and Yang Yong to lead 5,000 troops against the enemy.

At this time, Zhou Yu was sending Xu Sheng and Ding Feng as the vanguard, heading for Beihai.

Xu Sheng sneered: "I thought that the Cao army in Qingzhou was all cowards who were afraid of war, and finally someone came to meet him, and he would know the courage of my Jiangdong boy." ”

Ding Fengyan said: "Knowing yourself and knowing that you have won a hundred battles, and not knowing what the enemy's reality is, don't be careless." ”

Xu Sheng laughed and said: "We are going north to the Central Plains, opening up the territory and expanding the territory, we should attack and defend, there is a certain here, is it difficult to break the enemy?" ”

Ding Feng was arrogant when he heard this, hugged his fists and said: "Killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions, when today, a certain wish is a pioneer." ”

Xu Shengyan said: "In Chaisang over the years, the governor of Domeng has also gained a lot of experience in the art of war. We come from afar, although we don't have to be cowardly, we can't attack, we need to use outwitting to win: later against the enemy, a certain first fight with the enemy, Cheng Yuan led troops to rush the back road of the Cao army, front and back, take advantage of the situation to enter the army, Cao army self-breaking! ”

"Shogun Takami!" Ding Feng has always been brave in battle, and when he heard Xu Sheng's words, he suddenly realized, and hugged his fists and said: "During the battle of the beard, Liu Qi often said that he would no longer be brave in his plans, which benefited me a lot. ”

Xu Sheng smiled proudly: "Liu Qi is invincible in Guanzhong, and we can't lag behind him when we go across the sea and north with the governor of the capital, this green land will definitely become my Great Wu territory." ”

The two have discussed and decided, and when Cao's army comes to the city, Xu Sheng will lead the army out of the city to meet the enemy, and Ding Feng will sweep the formation in the rear and act at the opportunity.

The Wu army formed a formation, and Xu Sheng took the lead in riding out and shouted: "The Cao thief is far away from Mobei, and the Cao clan is already at the end of the strong crossbow, why don't you surrender early?" ”

Cheng Xiong observed Wu Jun's movements on the horse, and when he saw Xu Sheng being so arrogant, he couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "Jiangdong rats are only partial to the south of the Yangtze River, how can this Central Plains be coveted?" A certain knife does not kill the nameless, and reports the name. ”

Xu Sheng smiled coldly: "A certain is the East China Sea Xu Shengye!" Cao thief usurped and rebelled, everyone got it and punished him, a certain cloth returned to his hometown, and today he beheaded you first to thank the ancestors. ”

"It turned out to be a deserter, today let you know the heroes of the Central Plains!" Cheng Xiong urgently needed to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, urging Ma to fight Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng didn't know what Cheng Xiong's strength was, so he gave Ding Feng a look, telling him to be ready to attack at any time, patting the horse to meet the battle, the two horses were staggered, and Cheng Xiong was cut under the horse with only one knife, and he was stunned with a big knife: "That's it?" ”
