Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Liu Bei solemnly said, "Promise, prepare for this and set off."

Liu Ye nodded and said unambiguously: "Well, let's just do it, I won't leave Xuande anymore. The war is important. After the situation in Yuzhou eases, Brother Xuande will enter the pilgrimage to meet your Majesty again."

Liu Bei nodded and turned around and said: "Yun Chang, Yi De, Zizhong, you will go out with me to rectify the soldiers and horses, and prepare to leave the camp."

"Zilong." Liu Bei held Zhao Yun's hand rather reluctantly: "Zilong, Bei is very reluctant to part with you, but Bogui needs help more, so you can go back with five hundred cavalry."

Zhao Yun sighed: "It is also a pleasure in life to be able to fight under Lord Xuande, but it's a pity..."

Liu Bei smiled and patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Zilong, you can come back again when Hebei is up." Liu Bei only said that Hebei was up, but he didn't say that Gongsun Zan had won. In fact, he also saw that Gongsun Zan was already in decline. Among them, the hundreds of people in Zhao Yun's area couldn't change anything unless Liu Ye was willing to send troops to intervene, but Liu Ye lacked enough food and grass, and naturally it was impossible.

"In that case, Yun has resigned first."

Zhao Yun saluted Liu Bei and Liu Ye each, and then slowly withdrew.

Liu Ye saw Zhao Yun and immediately stopped him: "Who is the young general's name?"

Zhao Yun heard Liu Ye's voice and stopped his figure, then turned and said, "In Xiachangshan, Zhao Yun is Sima under General White Horse. He has seen Liu Cheqi."

It turned out to be Zhao Yun!

"It turns out that it was Zhao Zilong who fought against Hebei famous general Wen Chou for 60 rounds. He is indeed a young hero." Liu Ye praised, and at the same time, he thought about how to keep Zhao Yun.

"General White Horse is very powerful. Even if Jieqiao is temporarily defeated by Yuan Shao, it will probably not be a problem to defend Youzhou in the future. Zilong doesn't have to rush back. How about staying in the court?" Liu Ye said.

Zhao Yun shook his head slightly: "Thank you Liu Cheqi for his kindness, but General Baima is now in the process of employing people. Yun Nai is a member of the Gongsun army. How can he covet wealth and forget the meaning of Baima Yicong?"

What a pity...

"Well, since that's the case, I won't leave much, the cavalry under Zilong's command can go to Wenhe Office to receive three days of food and grass, and then go north." Liu Ye said.

"In that case, thank you Yun."

After that, Liu Ye looked at Liu Bei: "Brother Xuande, a certain allocated five thousand stones to you, but after Brother Xuande arrives in Yuzhou, he needs to solve the problem of recruiting troops and buying horses and food and grass."

Liu Bei nodded, "Yuqing, don't worry, Bei also knows that the imperial court's food and grass are difficult to provide. It is not bad to be able to allocate five thousand stones."

One stone of grain and grass is 27 kilograms, which is enough for ordinary soldiers to eat for one month, and five thousand stone of grain and grass are enough for Liu Bei's army horses to eat for more than a month. Liu Bei will have to work hard for the rest.

On the same day, Zhao Yun led hundreds of cavalry to set off from Hedong, detoured Bingzhou and returned to Youzhou, preparing to meet Gongsun Zan.

After Liu Bei led the army to rest, he immediately moved south from Yanzhou and entered Yingchuan County.

There are a total of five prefectures in Yuzhou, of which Runan prefecture, as the state governor, covers the largest area, while the remaining four prefectures are Peiguo, Liangguo, Chenguo and Yingchuan County.

Yingchuan County is located in the westernmost part of Yuzhou, and it has a large number of families and a strong cultural atmosphere. For example, the Xun family, Zhongyu Guojia and other families are in Yingchuan County, so Yuan Shu’s soldiers have not yet spread here.

Liu Bei led more than four thousand troops to station in Yingchuan County, and at the same time issued the emperor's edict to the counties of Yuzhou, declaring that he was the real Yuzhou governor, and Yuan Shu was rebellious.

Peiguo is the furthest away from Yingchuan County and is in the hands of Yuan Shu. Liang and Chen are both subordinates of the former Yuzhou governor Kongyou. They tried their best to resist Yuan Shu’s invasion. Hearing that Liu Bei was appointed by the court, he hurriedly Ask Liu Bei for help.

Liu Bei didn't dare to be careless when he heard about it, and ordered Guan Yu, who had always been so mature and prudent, to sit in Yingchuan County, and he himself took Zhang Fei and three thousand Danyang soldiers to Chen Country.

Yuan Shu dispatched his subordinate Xiao general Lei Bo to lead eight thousand to attack Chen State. Because Yuzhou Governor Kongyou was captured and killed, many cities in Chen State heard about Lei Bo's arrival, and they all came down. There are only two places in Chen County and Changping. The garrison is still resisting, but in a lonely city, the situation is getting more and more critical.

And Lei Bo did not pay attention to the remaining two cities. Instead, he divided his troops and attacked Chenxian and Changping, each with more than 4,000 troops. Chen County was the county of Chen Guojun, so Lei Bo himself The warlord attacked Chen County.

After Liu Bei heard about it, he immediately decided to cross Changping and led three thousand Danyang soldiers to surprise Chen County.

On September 15th, Lei Bo was attacking the city by the Overseer. Suddenly the sound of war drums and horns from the northwest went up to the sky. Lei Bo looked in the direction of the sound and was shocked.

Suddenly, an army of Liu Ziqi was killed by the wind. The three thousand Danyang soldiers were already brave and good at fighting. After the Battle of Xuzhou, the remaining soldiers who fought with tens of thousands of Cao Jun were all elites, with extraordinary combat effectiveness.

Liu Bei and Cao Bao commanded the Danyang army, while Zhang Fei roared into the battle with a zhang and eight snake spear. Although there were a lot of soldiers and horses under Lei Bo's army, after Yuan Shujun came to Yuzhou, most of them were strong men from Yuzhou, and their combat effectiveness was not strong, so Zhang Fei could easily get into the battle.

Zhang Fei is a fierce general of tens of thousands of enemies. If a good soldier is formed, he can also stop Zhang Fei. However, although Yuan Shujun is crowded and powerful, he is a miscellaneous army, and naturally cannot resist it.

Zhang Fei burst into Yuan Shujun with one breath, Fen Hero was furious, suddenly raised the weapon in his hand, raised the spear in his hand, and fell, slamming Lei Bo with a spear on the spot.

Lei Bo was killed, Yuan Shujun's morale collapsed on the spot, while Liu Bei commanded three thousand Danyang soldiers in a frontal assault, and more than four thousand Yuan Shujun was suddenly defeated. Except for more than a thousand escaped, most of the remaining people were captured alive.

When Chen County was relieved, the officials in the city were overjoyed to see the arrival of the "Ju Shi of Yuzhou" and hurriedly sent Liu Bei into the city.

Liu Bei recruited more than a thousand elites from Chenxian County National Soldiers and Yuan Shujun to join the army, and all the rest were released. This move caused great controversy in Yuzhou, and many people were grateful.

But Yuan Shujun, who was besieging Changping, heard that the main general Lei Bo had been killed, and retreated to the direction of Runan in fear, while the scheming Liu Bei had already prepared and led his troops to set up an ambush 30 miles north of Ruyang.

Yuan Shujun, who had retreated from Changping, retreated to the ambush. Liu Bei banged his drums and attacked. Thousands of Danyang soldiers shouted out. Yuan Shujun was defeated and was captured by Liu Bei. After Liu Bei selected the elite, he took the remaining prisoners. freed.

Subsequently, Liu Bei issued a notice in Chen Guo,

Due to the defeat of Lei Bo, the counties and counties in the Chen Kingdom fell under the wind, and Liu Bei successfully recovered many cities in the Chen Kingdom.
