Cao Ang had a hunch that after Liu Bei entered Xuzhou, he would inevitably fight with Lu Bu.

If Tao Qian was still alive, the fight between the two would only be a petty fight.

However, Tao Qian doesn't have many years to live.

Coupled with Zang Ba and other Taishan thieves in Xuzhou, it can be said that Xuzhou's internal worries have reached its peak.

And this external trouble is Yuan Shu in the south, who has been eyeing Xuzhou.

As long as Tao Qian dies and Xuzhou is in chaos, then Cao Ang can lead his troops to sweep away the civil strife in Xuzhou, and solve Liu Bei and Lu Bu by the way.

As for Yuan Shu, for Cao Ang, this guy is already half a dead man.

As long as he is proclaimed emperor, then as long as Cao Ang echoes, the princes of the world will definitely attack him.

Even if Cao Ang is now, if he starts a war with all the princes of the world at the same time, the chances of victory are not very great, let alone Yuan Shu, who only occupies one state.

……

At the end of September, a news that shocked the world came out of Yangzhou.

Yuan Shu sent people to kill Yangzhou Assassin Shi.

And this matter, as early as a few months ago, when Yuan Shu decided to be the emperor, he sent someone to do this and blocked the news.

In the past few months, the entire Yangzhou has been Yuan Shu's own decision.

He used Yangzhou's money to recruit troops and horses, and his strength increased significantly.

As for the incident of being beaten by Cao Ang and Liu Biao before, he had long forgotten about it.

"When I ascend the throne as the emperor, the first one will destroy you Liu Biao, take Jingzhou, and sit on most of the south of the Yangtze River, at that time, the land of my two states is comparable to the land of the Cao family's five states, what will he do to fight with me!"

As soon as Yuan Shu thought of this, he was complacent.

……

On the first day of October, this is an auspicious day calculated by Yuan Shu to find someone to divination, which is very suitable for ascending the throne and becoming emperor.

It was on this day that Yuan Shu was proclaimed emperor in Shouchun and was named Zhong.

When the princes from all walks of life learned the news that Yuan Shu was proclaimed emperor, they were all shocked.

Especially Yuan Shao, who is Yuan Shu's elder brother, immediately said that he wanted to draw a line with Yuan Shu.

"What is this Yuan Highway thinking, now the world is all together, everyone wants to be the emperor, but no one dares to be the first to be the emperor."

"As a result, as the son-in-law of the Yuan family, who is the third prince of the fourth world, he took the lead in becoming the emperor, doesn't this roast my Yuan family on the fire?"

After Yuan Shao complained about Yuan Shu, he looked at the strategists: "If you pass the order, you will say that I, Yuan Benchu, and he Yuan Highway will completely draw a line from today on." ”

All the strategists did not object to this, and even Guo Tu and Fu Zhu, who had always been hostile, stood together this time.

It is indeed necessary to draw a clear line with Yuan Shu, otherwise if someone uses the relationship between Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to attack Yuan Shao, then the situation will become very bad.

is like that Gongsun Zhan, if he said that Yuan Shu had collusion with Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao also wanted to be the emperor, then those families who supported Yuan Shao would have to be re-weighed.

After all, such a rebellious charge, they, who cherish feathers, don't want to carry it.

At that time, these families will turn their heads to support Gongsun Zhan, then he Yuan Shaoke will be bad.

At that time, Guo Tufu and others, who were the representatives of the family, were afraid that they would also abandon Yuan Shao, after all, they were the spokespersons of the family, and when necessary, they would definitely stand with the family.

……

Jingzhou, Liu Biao.

After Liu Biao learned that Yuan Shu had been proclaimed emperor, he couldn't help laughing three times.

"This Yuan Highway, it's really good, the scar forgot the pain, what did he look like when he was cleaned up by me and Cao Zixuan before, did he forget it?"

"At his level, he still wants to be the emperor, isn't this a lantern in the toilet, looking for death!"

Liu Biao smiled disdainfully, he couldn't look down on Yuan Shu's brainless behavior.

Now he knows that the general trend of the world is already biased towards the Cao family, and it would be good for him Liu Biao to be able to hold Jingzhou.

If one day, the Cao family wants to be him in Jingzhou, then he will definitely not agree, if it is soft, then it will be the best.

Jingxiang Nine Counties is not so easy to handle.

When Liu Biao laughed at Yuan Shu, his brother-in-law Cai Mao jumped out.

"Brother-in-law, I think we might as well take the lead in declaring war on that Yuan Highway, and brush up on a wave of goodwill in front of the heroes of the world!"

When Liu Biao heard this, after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head: "It's not proper, our Jingzhou is too close to Yangzhou, if war is declared, Yuan Shu will definitely take the initiative to take action, then Jingzhou will become the main battlefield." ”

"This is not good news for Jingzhou, besides, Yuan Shu has just been proclaimed emperor, his prestige in Yangzhou must be full, and his strength has risen sharply, we may not be opponents."

After Liu Biao married Cai, he lost his enterprising spirit and immersed himself in the gentle township.

Although Cai Mao is not a hero, when he saw Liu Biao's appearance, he no longer persuaded anything, because he knew that Liu Biao would not be forced to a dead end, and he would definitely not do anything with others again.

This brother-in-law is considered to be wasted, this Jingzhou will change hands sooner or later, and it seems that he has to find a home.

In fact, in Cai Mao's heart, why don't you want to be the lord of Jingzhou.

It's just that he has a few pounds and a few taels, and he knows very well in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that he practiced some fancy and water kung fu in his early years, plus her sister married Liu Biao, then he is just a guy who messes around all day now, how can he have the opportunity to be a Taishou and a military advisor.

As for who to find in this family, he has to think carefully.

Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi don't think about it, Liu Qi has always looked down on Cai Mao's sister and brother, if Liu Qi becomes the lord of Jingzhou, then their Cai sister's and brother's good days will come to an end.

Yizhou Liu Yan? He can't do it, a soft egg, every time there is a fight, he calls himself sick and pretends to be dead.

As for Yuan Shu, don't even think about it, if you are the emperor at this time, you will have to finish sooner or later, Cai Mao can't hide, how can she come forward.

As for Yuan Shaogong, Sun Zan and others, they were too far away from Jingzhou, and there was no way to come to Jingzhou.

Thinking about it, whether it is power or prestige, the Cao family is the best choice.

……

Yizhou, Liu Yan.

Since Liu Zhang came back, Liu Yan has been very happy.

Originally, he had three sons, but they were all taken hostage by Cao Cao's father and son.

It's hard to come back now, so he must be trained as a successor.

"Ji Yu, since you are back, then follow your father to study hard, this Yizhou will definitely be handed over to you in the end."

When Liu Zhang heard this, he hurriedly pretended to excuse himself: "Father, how can this work, my eldest brother and second brother are still here!" ”
