Chapter 366

"Lord, Prince Yan, the prince of Liaoxi, and sun Zan, Prince of youbeiping, have left the city and fled. They have gone out of the frontier fortress and disappeared!"

"Even if youbeiping is lost, they can still retreat to Yuyang county to hold on. Why flee to the north?"

Liu Bei's chopsticks fell to the ground.

Prince Yan and Gongsun Zan gave up resisting, which was a fatal blow to Liu Bei's forces.

In Jixian County, Liu Bei entered Youzhou for less than half a year, and his power had just reached its peak when he was attacked by various forces.

In a sense, Youzhou is the four battle areas in the north. The Liaodong army of mingguan entered the west to take Youzhou. The Jizhou forces of Yuan Shao and Zhao Long went north to take Youzhou. The horse of Bingzhou wanted to capture Daidi, but also cut a piece of meat from Youzhou.

Liu Bei was attacked by a strong enemy, only better than Cao Cao.

"What can I do, master?"

Liu Bei invited Chen Xi, a foreign military adviser, to the banquet. Now Liu Bei's forces simply can't bear the attack of the four great princes. Not to mention the four great princes, even the Ming pass from Liaodong, which had a large number of cavalry and heavy infantry, was not comparable to Liu Bei in terms of the quality of their civil servants and military generals. Ming Guan gained a lot of benefits in the previous epic campaigns and national wars, second only to Chu Tian and similar to the valiant old Qin.

Chen Xi's expression at this time is also very confused. He did not understand why Prince Yan and Gongsun Zan did not flee to the south, but ran to the desert in the north.

Liu Bei's military generals went to resist Yuan Shao, Zhao long and Hu ma. They were faced with fierce generals of Yan Liang Wenchou, Lanling Wang, Zhu Luguang, Han jiehu, Shi Wansui, Lianpo and Zhou Dewei, as well as counselors such as juxu and Tian Feng. Even Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other generals of other dynasties recruited by Liu Bei were also hard to support.

"The states of Changshan, Zhongshan and Anping of Jizhou have been occupied by Yuan Shao and Zhao long, and the Daijun and Shanggu County of Youzhou have been captured by Hu ma. We only have four prefectures left in Jizhou, namely, Hejian state of Jizhou, Zhuo County, Guangyang county and Yuyang County of Youzhou."

Chen Xi mentioned the precarious situation of Liu Bei's power, and the officials in Youzhou were silent.

At his peak, Liu Bei actually controlled nine prefectures, including four prefectures in Jizhou and five counties in Youzhou. Now, Liu Bei has been besieged by various princes, leaving only four prefectures. And the expansion of the great princes is not over.

Liu Bei was so worried that he couldn't swallow: "the situation is critical. Please teach me from the military master."

Chen Xi looked at the officials in Youzhou and indicated that Liu Bei was a secret and should not be known to all.

So Liu Bei got up and went to the back room alone with Chen Xi.

Chen Xi knew that Liu Bei's willpower was the most tenacious among all the princes. Cao Cao would waver when things were not smooth, but Liu Bei fled all the way from the north to the south, and almost wandered in most of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He never gave up and finally divided the whole country. Liu Bei would not give up so easily.

If Liu Bei escapes to Hulao, his choice will be different from that of Cao Cao. Liu Bei would rather escape to be a guest general for the valiant old Qin, guarding the Xiongguan and waiting for the opportunity, but he would not surrender to Chutian and be deprived of military power.

This is the tenacity of Liu Bei.

Even if Liu Bei was besieged by Jizhou, Bingzhou and Liaodong, he would not give up.

Facing Liu Bei, who trusted himself, Chen Xi put forward an adventure: "Yuan Shao is in the south, Hu Ma is in the west, mingguan is in the East, and the north is desert south. The Lord can rely on one of the forces to protect his forces and lead the three forces to a decisive battle in Youzhou. The three forces are like wolves. None of them is good at fighting. In order to fight for Youzhou, they will fight with each other. The number of troops and village bravery may be as many as one million. At that time, once the three parties suffered heavy losses, the Lord could take advantage of the profits and regain control of Youzhou. It's a risky plan, but it's a gamble. If one of the three parties still has spare power after the war, it will be difficult for us to succeed. "

To Chen Xi's surprise, Liu Bei quickly agreed: "who do you think you should go to?"

"We can join Yuan Shao and make Yuan Shao, huma and mingguan territory border each other, so as to promote the war among the three armies. And Yuan Shao can tolerate Zhao Long's existence. Since he has set a precedent, he can also tolerate the Lord as a guest general. "

"Well, I'll send you to the military camp of Yuan Shao to discuss with Yuan Shao about taking refuge in the four prefectures. But please allow us to have troops and horses to stay in Zhuo County, my hometown. I'm willing to give up Jixian, the seat of Youzhou. "

Liu Bei made up his mind to send Chen Xi as an envoy to yuanshao military camp.

Chen Xi agreed to come down.

Yuan Shao's 50000 troops were annihilated by the cavalry of Chutian in Henan Province. In his anger, he vented all his anger on Liu Bei. He attacked and captured the Jizhou Prefecture controlled by Liu Bei. He almost owned nine counties in Jizhou, becoming the largest vassal in Hebei Province.

Yuan Shao's rise was inseparable from the support of the alien Lord Zhao long. Zhao Long controlled the guild composed of free players and was responsible for exploring and infiltrating Jizhou. At the same time, he had the fiefdoms of Zhao and Changshan, military generals such as Shi Wansui and Han jiehu, as well as a large number of soldiers.

Although Yuan Shao was also on guard against Zhao long, on the surface, Zhao Long was still attached to Yuan Shao, and Zhao long could not be destroyed. Yuan Shao did not dare to move Zhao long. Zhao Long infiltrates into Yuan Shao's power. If Yuan Shao wants to harm him, he can get the news at the first time. Jizhou internal fire, only cheap other princes. Yuan Shao was clear about this.Yuan Shao's power seems to be more and more powerful, but there are various factions fighting each other.

Now, there is another force. Liu Bei secretly sent envoys to ask to be attached to Yuan Shao. He was willing to offer four prefectures, but he also asked to leave one. Zhuojun, Liu Bei's hometown, was granted as a fief, and Liu Bei was allowed to garrison in Zhuozhou to assist Yuan Shao in monitoring the north.

Yuan Shao was overjoyed at the news.

If Liu Bei was accepted, Yuan Shao could not only own the nine counties of Jizhou, but also the three counties of Youzhou. Liu Bei was the same as Liu Bei's civil and military generals!

Tian Feng knew that Liu Bei sent someone to lobby Yuan Shao, looked at the map, and poured cold water on Yuan Shao: "my Lord, no, Liu Bei's contribution to the city is actually a disaster to the East!"

Chen Xi, an outsider military adviser sent to Yuan Shao's forces, was shocked. Sure enough, such a strategy could not be concealed from Yuan Shao's counsellors Tian Feng and juxu.

The counsellors present, Xu you, Shen Pei, Feng Ji, Xun Chen, Xin PI and others all looked at Tian Feng and Chen Xi standing in the middle of the hall.

Yuan Shao didn't understand: "Liu Xuande came down from the four prefectures and guarded the north for me. I can try my best to go south. Why should the disaster be diverted to the east?"

"Liu Xuande didn't want to go down. It was only a temporary measure to take refuge in the Lord. Once the Lord occupied Jixian County, he would be hated by Hu Ma and mingguan. When Bingzhou and Liaodong legions gathered in Jixian, it would be a terrifying battle with no light. In the event of defeat, we will not only lose all the land we have won, but even if we win, we will surely lose a lot and be taken advantage of by villains. "

Tian Feng made an impassioned speech and fully understood the plot of Chen Xi, Liu Bei's outsider, and looked at Chen Xi to let Chen Xi know that he had failed. At the same time, Tian Feng denounced Liu Bei and Chen Xi as villains.

Yuan Shao's advisers whispered in private. They had the ability to stand here. They were not mediocre. After Tian Feng's warning, they could see the clue.

Chen Xi narrowed his eyes, Tian Feng is very smart and good, but he may not lose to Tian Feng. Tian Feng has a fatal weakness, that is too rigid.

Chen Xi's eyes glanced from Guo Tu.

Guo Tu stood up and said, "my Lord, why should you be afraid of Hu Ma and mingguan! If the Lord wants to unify Hebei and chase the Central Plains, then Bingzhou and Liaodong must be eliminated! Today, Liu Xuande presented Youzhou and led Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to serve the Lord. This is a good opportunity to eliminate Hu Ma and Ming Guan, occupy Bingzhou and Liaodong, and dominate Hebei! God has given you such a good opportunity. How can you give up Youzhou for fear of war

Tian Feng was immediately worried and accused Guo Tu: "our army has not been fully prepared. The wolves in Bingzhou are like wolves, and the iron cavalry in Liaodong is like tigers. Most of you will be defeated in the battle of Youzhou. How can we rush north to Jixian and compete with Bingzhou and Liaodong? It's not as good as Xu Xu's plan, accumulating strength secretly, watching Bingzhou and Liaodong suffer both losses and seizing Youzhou again

Juxue stood out and stood in the same camp with Tian Feng: "if Liu Xuande sincerely joins in with the Lord, he should hand over all his troops and horses. The Lord will occupy Zhuo county and give Jixian county to Bingzhou and Liaodong forces to fight for an opportunity."

Guo TU was furious: "Tian Feng and Ju are as timid as rats, so they are not enough to be reused. If you follow their advice, you will only miss the opportunity and you will not be able to chase the Central Plains!"

The match judge stood on Guo Tu's side: "the Lord has nine prefectures in Jizhou. He has a strong army. He should be quick and decisive. He can sweep Youzhou, Bingzhou and Liaodong, control one million strings, cross the Yellow River and unify the world."

Yuan Shao's internal counsellors were again divided into two groups. Tian Feng and juxu advocated confiscating Liu Bei's military power and waiting for work with ease. Guo Tu and the trial and match advocate that Liu Bei should be taken in and marched into Youzhou to make a quick decision.

Yuan Shao hesitated. Every time he met a major decision, he would be divided into two groups, arguing endlessly.

Chen Xi further said: "today, it will take at least one year to digest Yanzhou and establish a ruling system for chuzi to attack Yanzhou and annex Cao Cao. Once Chu Zi tried to unify the four states of Henan, Yuan Gong could not compete with them. Let Yuan Gong take our Lord as his minions, defeat Bingzhou and Liaodong troops, sweep Hebei, and go south to fight Chu Zi. This is the opportunity given by heaven to Yuan Gong to unify the world. Don't worry about it. "

Chen Xi's words touched Yuan Shao's fear of Xuzhou Mu Chu Zi Mou.

Yuan Shao looked at Zhao long, the alien Lord who had supported him very early. Zhao long kept silent and said, "what do you think of your brother?"

Zhao long seemed to be asleep. When Yuan Shao asked him this, he stood up: "I think Chen Xi is right. If you don't control Hebei as soon as possible and let Chu Zi plan to dominate the Central Plains, I'm afraid the Lord will not be able to do anything."

Zhao Long's position in Yuan Shao's mind was higher than that of other counsellors, because Zhao long had military generals and troops, and helped Yuan Shao defeat Liu Bei in the battle of Julu.

"Now that all my brothers have said that, I have decided that Liu Bei moved to Zhuo county. Yan Liang and Wen Chou sent troops to occupy Jixian County. Tian Feng and Fengji were their military advisers, and Liu Bei was their minions. They refused to be strong enemies from all sides. I personally lead the army and go north with my good brother

Yuan Shao, with Zhao long and Liu Bei as hawk dogs, believed that they could defeat Hu Ma and Ming Guan.

Chen Xi, Liu Bei's outsider, looked at Zhao long with some doubts in his eyes. He tried to bribe Guo Tu and lobbied for the trial, but he did not find Zhao long.

Could Zhao long not see that Liu Bei intended to lead Yuan Shao northward to fight with Bingzhou and Liaodong?Zhao Long's eyes were wandering and absent-minded.

Yuan Shao recruited soldiers and horses in various counties of Jizhou, and each county produced 40000 soldiers and horses, which could make up 300000 troops.

"Please wait!"

"May I have your advice, gentlemen?"

"Can't you see that Liu Bei wants to bring disaster to the east?"

Yuan Shao dismisses people and goes down to prepare. Tian Feng and Ju Xue stop Zhao long. They don't understand why Zhao Long suddenly supports Guo Tu and tries to match him. For a long time, Zhao Long made friends with all parties in Yuan Shao's power, especially with Tian Feng and juxu. Tian Feng and juxu knew Zhao Long's ability and did not believe that Zhao long could not see Chen Xi's plot.

Zhao Long said, "of course I can see that."

"Then why..."

"In less than a year or two, Chu Zi could unify the Central Plains, and the next step was Hebei. If Hu Ma and Ming Guan are not defeated as soon as possible, how can we fight against Chu zimou? If there is a war with Chu zimou in the future, please help me. I'll go back to Handan to prepare for the war and go north. "

Zhao long had a good relationship with Tian Feng and Ju, so he spoke briefly and directly.

Zhao Long was accompanied by Shi Wansui, and a general who didn't even know Tian Feng and juxu.

Juxu looked at Zhao Long's back: "he has something to hide from us."

Tian Feng is more concerned about Zhao Long's military generals: "the popularity is extraordinary, and very human."

"It seems that Zhao Long came back from Mobei and recruited a general."

After all, Tian Feng and juxu were weak, and it was difficult to fight against Guo Tu and match them. With Zhao Long's support, Yuan Shao finally failed to listen to Tian Feng's and Ju's suggestions.

The sky over Youzhou was covered with dark clouds. Liu Bei announced that he attached himself to Yuan Shao and transferred to Zhuo county. He gave Youzhou to Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao. In order to fight for Youzhou, Hu Ma and mingguan summoned troops to march toward Jixian.

"Interesting..."

In Puyang City, Chu Tian returned to the army and learned that the princes of Hebei fought hard for Youzhou. Liu Bei seemed to withdraw from the fight for Youzhou and attached himself to Yuan Shao, but Liu Bei still had soldiers in his hands.

The Youzhou war may kill and injure hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the corpses will be everywhere.

Prince Yan and Gongsun Zan have gone to the south of the desert according to the requirements of Chutian to manage horse production land for Chutian.

In Puyang City, Cao Ren, man Chong, Xia Houdun and others were captured and held in prison.

When Cao Ren saw Cao Cao, he couldn't help crying.

Under Cao Cao's careful inquiry, he heard that man Chong was persuading Cao Ren to surrender, and he could not help feeling: "man boning, know me too."

Because of the appearance of Cao Cao, Xia Houdun, Cao Ren, man Chong and others, after meeting with Cao Cao, became loyal to Chu Tian one after another.

"Ding! Xia Houdun, a king level general, is loyal to you. "

"Ding! King level general Cao Ren is loyal to you. "

"Ding! The diamond commander is loyal to you. "

"Ding! Cao ang, the platinum commander-in-chief, is loyal to you. "

"Ding! Xue Ti, a platinum official, is loyal to you. "

"Ding! Cao Anmin, a golden general, is loyal to you. "

……

Many of them were Cao Cao's clan, and Cao ang, Cao's eldest son

Now the whole family of Cao Cao has been captured by Chu Tian, as well as the Ding family and Bian family.

Chu Tian returned Cao Cao's wife and children to Cao Cao, and ordered them to move to Xiacheng and monitor them to ensure his loyalty. Although Cao Cao likes other people's wives very much, Chu Tian doesn't think that Cao Cao would like his wife to be robbed.

Chutian wants to digest Yanzhou, and there are many civil servants and generals. It will take some time. Chu Tian planned to take Cao Cao to fight the national war. During the war, he didn't have to worry about Cao Cao's rebellion, because Cao Cao was unlikely to surrender to other nations.

"There may be a big war in Youzhou, but I just want to farm well in Henan..."
