Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

After repeated conversations, Kuai Yue agreed and promised Sili's Hanoi and Hedong counties to Bingzhou.

At this time, Kuai Yue was also a little dissatisfied. Now Liu Biao was the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Because of the crusade against the traitor Yuan Shu, these princes took the opportunity to make various demands to the court to satisfy themselves. He also knew that not only Bingzhou was like this

, I am afraid that the same is true for other princes. Who would be willing to send troops without sufficient interests? The hatred between Jingzhou and Yuan Shu is deep. Even if the princes do not participate, the war between the two parties has not stopped. As for the princes recognizing Liu Biao

He was the emperor of the Han Dynasty, just to have his identity recognized. Otherwise, even if Lu Bu occupied Youzhou without the canonization of the imperial court, he would not be the nominal lord of Youzhou. If his name is correct, his words should be followed. All the princes understand this.

At this time, Liu Biao was a piece of cake in the eyes of the princes, an opportunity for them to legalize their current interests.

Cai Yong even published three articles in Dahan Newspaper, denounced Yuan Shu, and at the same time expressed Bingzhou's determination to support Liu Biao's succession to the throne. Cai Yong wrote the article himself, and the weight was still very important. Cai Yong was a well-known Confucian scholar in the country.

There is a power among literati that cannot be ignored.

In May of the same year, just one month after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Cao Cao denounced Yuan Shu. The imperial court recognized Liu Biao as the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Biao named him Yanzhou Mu and Shanyang Marquis. Yuan Shao severed ties with Yuan Shu and called Yuan Shu a traitor.

, issued a proclamation to denounce Yuan Shu, recognized Liu Biao as the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and was canonized by Liu Biao as the Mu of Jizhou and the Marquis of Ye, and was canonized as the Mu of Qingzhou during the period; Sun Ce severed ties with Yuan Shu, denounced Yuan Shu, and conferred upon Liu Biao the titles of Prefect of Kuaiji and Marquis of Wu,

Liangzhou Ma Teng and Han Sui went to the court to firmly support Liu Biao and conferred Liu Biao the title of Hanyang Prefect and Huaili Marquis. Han Sui was granted the title of Jincheng Prefect. Liu Bei denounced Yuan Shu, recognized Liu Biao's status, and conferred Liu Biao the title of Xuzhou Mu.

Liu Bei's identity as a clan member of the Han Dynasty was recognized; Lu Bu issued a proclamation to denounce Yuan Shu, recognized Liu Biao's identity, and conferred Liu Biao the title of Bingzhou Mu, Marquis of Jin, and Li Su was canonized as Youzhou Mu.

Yuan Shao was quite dissatisfied with the people from Bingzhou assuming the position of Youzhou Mu. His original intention was to seize the opportunity to capture Youzhou Mu, Qingzhou Mu and the Sili area. He did not want Liu Biao to just agree to Qingzhou and grant Hanoi and Hedong in the Sili area.

Yuan Shao, these were all agreed to secretly. Liu Biao would naturally not make it public, nor would he tell Yuan Shao that he had promised Hanoi and Hedong to Bingzhou.

In May of the same year, Liu Bei sent Guan Yu as the vanguard and led 3,000 troops to Jingzhou; Ma Teng ordered his son Ma Chao to lead 2,000 troops and horses to Jingzhou; Yuan Shao ordered Yan Liang as the vanguard and personally led 5,000 troops to Jingzhou; Lu Bu ordered Zhao Yun

, Zhang Liao was the vanguard and personally led 5,000 troops to Jingzhou; Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Dun to be the vanguard, leading 3,000 troops to Jingzhou; Sun Ce also led 2,000 troops to Jingzhou.

This is another alliance after the princes' crusade against Dong Zhuo, but the former prince Yuan Shu has now become the emperor.

Like Liu Biao, after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, he immediately sent envoys to various states and counties, promising high-ranking officials and generous salaries. However, the princes obviously did not like Yuan Shu's envoys. Even if it hindered the Yuan family, they would not agree to anything after meeting them.

For a time Yuan Shu became a loner.

When he learned that Yanzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou, Xuzhou, Ma Teng, and Sun Ce had sent troops to Jingzhou to discuss the conquest, Yuan Shu was shocked. He was not arrogant enough to use the land of Yangzhou and Yuzhou to fight against the coalition of princes.

What made Yuan Shu most angry was Sun Ce's rebellion. It was with his help that Sun Ce was able to return to Jiangdong and have the power he has today. He did not expect that Sun Ce would turn to Liu Biao. After all, Sun Ce and Liu Biao had a grudge against the murder of their father.

Fang's hatred has long been irresolvable. If Sun Ce had restrained him, Yuan Shu would be more confident in winning.

Under Jingzhou there are Nanyang County, Nan County, Jiangxia County, Guiyang County, Wuling County, Changsha County, Xiangyang County and Zhangling County. They are divided from Nanyang County and Nan County. They are the nine counties of Jingzhou, with a population of about six million.

One hundred thousand men in armor are a force that cannot be underestimated among the princes.

Although the Han Dynasty was turbulent in recent years, Jingzhou was not affected much. Many people went to Jingzhou for refuge, which also promoted the prosperity of Jingzhou.

After Liu Biao was appointed governor of Jingzhou, he transferred the state's governance to Xiangyang.

Liu Biao was the successor of Lu Gong Wang Liu Yu. He became famous all over the world at a young age and was ranked among the "Eight Heroes". He entered Jingzhou alone and pacified Jingzhou with the assistance of Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and others, and even killed him in the battle between the two armies.

After the death of the fierce general Sun Jian, under Liu Biao's diligent rule, Jingzhou gradually became stronger, and he had many advisers and generals under his command.

Troops from six parties arrived in Jingzhou one after another in June.

The grievances between the princes have been going on for a long time. Needless to say, Xuzhou and Yanzhou have deep grievances. Jizhou and Bingzhou also have deep grievances. Jiangdong Sun Ce and Liu Biao have an irresolvable grudge. This time, in order to attack Yuan Shu, they gathered together.

one place

Liu Biao inherited the throne in a hurry. At this time, Jingzhou was undergoing a large-scale construction project to build an imperial palace.

After hearing this, Lu Bu shook his head slightly. The most important thing in Jingzhou right now is to defeat Yuan Shu. At such a critical moment, it is really not a wise move to waste people and money for the so-called imperial palace.

The construction of the imperial palace was also a strong request of Jingzhou officials. Liu Biao was already the emperor. As the saying goes, etiquette cannot be abolished. It represents the face of the royal family. Naturally, he could not live in the prefecture's palace.

In June, the weather was already a bit hot, and soldiers and horses from all sides were looking for shady places to station outside the city.

After Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao found a place to station outside the city, they ordered the soldiers to set up camp, while Zhao Yun went to the army to meet Lu Bu.

Although Jizhou is closer to Jingzhou than Bingzhou, the vanguards of Bingzhou's army are all cavalry, and their speed is much faster than that of Jizhou.

Yan Liang also took a fancy to the Bingzhou Army's camp. There were not many places outside the city that could be used to station a large army. The place chosen by the Bingzhou Army had a slightly higher terrain. If the other princes' armies were stationed outside the city, they would obviously suffer a loss. Seeing Bingzhou

The general of the army was Zhang Liao, whom he had never met before, so he deliberately deceived him.

Zhang Liao learned that the Bingzhou Army had a conflict with the Jizhou Army outside the camp, and hurriedly led more than a hundred cavalry to go there.

I saw soldiers from the Bingzhou Army and the Jizhou Army yelling at each other and about to take action.

Zhang Liao shouted: "Stop it, everyone."

"Who are you, and why did you come to the Bingzhou military camp to pick a fight?" Zhang Liao asked with a low expression.

"What is the Bingzhou Army Camp? It was clearly the Jizhou Army that took a fancy to this place first and was violently occupied by your people. Brothers, don't you think so?" The officers and soldiers of the Jizhou Army who came here all agreed.

"Humph, this is the Bingzhou Army camp. I don't want to say it again, general. Anyone who doesn't leave here will be regarded as an enemy of the Bingzhou Army and will be killed without mercy." Zhang Liao shouted.
