"Marquis Ye has been kind to a certain person, so just give up." Tian Feng murmured.

"My lord, we should have executed that stubborn old man just now. Yuan Shao, a mere Yuan Shao, doesn't matter. How can he be compared with my lord?" Dian Wei said angrily.

Lu Bu sighed: "How much can be changed by killing Tian Feng? If we can get Tian Feng's allegiance, it will be of great help to my rule. You must have seen the talents of Jushu. Such talents are like this."

If he dies, it will be a loss to the people of the world."

The corners of Dian Wei's mouth moved and he stopped talking. He didn't understand such profound principles. All he knew was to protect Lu Bu. When Lu Bu was in danger, he stood up without hesitation. When Lu Bu was humiliated by others,

, stepped forward without hesitation.

"Shi Yuan, I'm afraid this matter will be extremely difficult to succeed. It's better to let Tian Feng go to Chang'an someday. If you have a good relationship with Tian Feng, you may be able to persuade Tian Feng." Lu Bu said, Bingzhou is busy with affairs now, especially the relocation of people.

Involves all aspects of things.

The move of merging the states once again aroused the fear of the princes, especially Jingzhou, and there was a lot of discussion about this matter. Once Lu Bu transferred the focus of his rule to Chang'an, it would mean a greater threat to Jingzhou, but in the face of

At this time, what else could they do besides criticizing the tyrannical Lu Bu? Even the Han Dynasty had to bow their heads when facing Lu Bu.

After the news of Zang Ba's defeat in Xiapi reached Qingzhou, Yuan Shao was slightly moved. Zang Ba's existence could contain Cao Cao's troops to a certain extent, so that Cao Cao would have more worries when he invaded Qingzhou one day, and Cao Cao would stabilize Xuzhou.

After that, he will definitely not be satisfied with the current status quo, and Yuan Shao's next plan is to attack Xuzhou and seize sufficient benefits from Xuzhou.

"Zhiji, now Cao Jun has conquered Xiapi. If he raises troops to quell Zang Ba, it will be a big threat to Qingzhou. You can secretly go to the East China Sea to find out Zang Ba's attitude. If he is willing to join me, I will send troops.

Help Zang Ba resist Cao Jun." Yuan Shao whispered.

"My Lord, Zang Ba still has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command. Donghai City is high and deep. If Cao Jun wants to break it, it will not be possible in a short time. How about letting Cao Jun continue to attack Donghai and rescue Zang Ba when he is most critical?

, maybe we can get Zang Ba." Guo Tu said.

After Yuan Shang's death, officials such as Feng Ji who originally supported Yuan Shang suddenly became much silent, and many officials even secretly showed favor to Yuan Tan.

After successive changes, Yuan Shao became even more aged, Jizhou was lost, and now he only had the land of Qingzhou in his hands. If Cao Cao was allowed to pacify Xuzhou, it would mean that he would face threats from Jizhou and Xuzhou.

"My lord, if we do this, I'm afraid Zang Ba will defect to Cao Cao and imitate what Hua Xiong did in Xiapi. For the sake of the stability of his rule, Cao Cao may agree to Zang Ba." Xin Pi said.

"In this case, George should go to the East China Sea. You must be careful when doing things." Yuan Shao warned.

"Here." Xinpi cupped his hands and left.

Yuan Tan's status rose under Yuan Shao's rule, followed by the improvement of Xinpi's status. Xinpi helped Yuan Tan pacify Qingzhou, and he was Yuan Tan and Hu Xia's meritorious service. However, after Yuan Shao entered Qingzhou, he had Yuan Shang.

The existence of Yuan Tan was a huge blow to Yuan Tan's status.

"Yuan Tu, now Qingzhou has reached a critical moment, you all should work together to help me tide over the difficulties." Yuan Shao suddenly said.

Feng Ji and Guo Tu were shocked when they heard this and hurriedly raised their hands and said yes.

Although Yuan Shao had some guesses about the murderer of Yuan Shang, what could he do even after knowing that it was Yuan Tan? Could it be that Yuan Tan could not be executed? He could only temporarily choose to accept the scene in front of him. Qingzhou could not stand it at this time.

There was too much turmoil.

Fengji didn't understand Yuan Shao's intentions. This was the reason why he had become much more low-key recently, and even secretly showed his favor to Yuan Tan.

Yuan Tan followed Guo Tu's advice and did not embarrass the officials who originally supported Yuan Shang. Instead, he comforted them, which gradually allowed Yuan Tan's power to grow.

After killing Yuan Shang, the benefits Yuan Tan gained were obvious.

When Xinpi arrived at the East China Sea, Zang Ba had already received the order from Lu Bu.

Chen Gong analyzed: "The general must not surrender to Cao's army at this time. Although Cao's army has lost troops and generals in Xiapi, there are still more than 40,000 fighting troops, and the general now firmly controls the power in the city.

In his hands, the food and grass in the East China Sea is enough for the army for a year, but Cao Cao's army cannot sustain the food and grass for a year. When Cao Cao is unable to attack for a long time and suffers heavy losses, Cao Cao will definitely agree to surrender."

"What should Qingzhou do?" Zang Ba asked.

"General, compared to Cao Cao, Qingzhou is currently weak. The general can secretly show his favor to Yuan Shao. In this case, the troops of both sides will rely on the general, and the general can rest assured to develop his strength in Xuzhou, and wait for the Marquis of Jin to come from before.

After the war subsides, Qingzhou will definitely not last long. With the support of the Marquis of Jin, there is no need to fear Cao Cao's troops," Chen Gong said.

Zang Ba nodded and said, "Just what you say, sir."

Ten days after conquering Xiapi, Cao Cao once again led his troops to the East China Sea.

The 40,000-strong army looked mighty. Compared with the defenders of Xiapi and the defenders of Donghai, they were obviously more powerful. When facing the enemy, they did not look too flustered.

When Cao Cao outside the city saw this scene, his eyes tightened slightly. According to the news from Xizuo, there were eight thousand defenders in the East China Sea at this time.

After setting up camp, Cao's army launched a fierce attack on the East China Sea. Compared with the battlefield at Xiapi, Cao's army at this time was more elite, but the soldiers defending the city were also extremely brave.

After half a month of continuous siege, Donghai was still unable to be breached. On the contrary, more than 3,000 people were lost, which made Cao Cao a little worried about the current situation.

When attacking a city, the losses suffered by the attacking side and the defending side are basically one to three. And with the defenders aided by thunderbolt chariots and crossbows, the losses suffered by the attacking side will be even greater.

"Gongda, the East China Sea is strong and difficult to break through. I wonder if Gongda has any good strategies?" Cao Cao asked. Zang Ba must have something unique in being able to stand in Xuzhou for many years. After the fight, Cao Cao felt Zang Ba's difficulty even more.

Tangled.

Xun You frowned when he heard this. He naturally understood the meaning of Cao Cao's words. According to the situation on the battlefield, he wanted to seize the East China Sea from Zang Ba's hands, unless there was an internal response from Cao Cao's army in the city. According to the news from Xi Zuo

, the aristocratic families in the city are extremely supportive of Zang Ba, and there are not even many private soldiers left in the family. Zang Ba has a high prestige in the army, and usually controls the army very strictly. Even if the aristocratic family secretly takes action, it has a certain effect.

It won't have much effect.
