Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 513: Conspiracy to Jizhou
After the Xuzhou envoy went to Jingzhou, he was also received by Liu Biao. Xuzhou was attacked by Cao's army, and Jingzhou was extremely uneasy. Since defeating the traitor Yuan Shu, Cao Cao became more and more restless. He not only occupied Yuzhou but also captured Shouchun, and sent generals
Attacking Yinhe Hongnong in Henan, and now sending troops to Xuzhou. If Cao Cao continues to develop like this, wouldn't Jingzhou have no room for development? A powerful Cao Cao is not in the interest of the royal family.
Liu Biao had long wanted to plot Yizhou, but the terrain of Yizhou was difficult to defend and difficult to attack. After Liu Zhang became the shepherd of Yizhou, he did not have any contact with the outside world. He obviously regarded Yizhou as a state within a state. If Liu Zhang could seek refuge with the royal family
, For Jingzhou, the impact is far-reaching. Yizhou is a land of abundance, with fertile fields thousands of miles away, and the Sichuan soldiers are good at conquering and fighting. With Yizhou as the rear, Liu Biao can also have stronger power to control Jiangdong.
After experiencing a major defeat, although the number of the Jingzhou army increased to 60,000, these 60,000 could hardly have much combat power. Moreover, Sun Ce continued to attack Jiangxia, and Jingzhou, which was caught in the flames of war, was not suitable to attack at this time.
Enmity with Yanzhou.
Of course, as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Biao still had to show his attitude and send envoys to Cao's army to persuade the two families to reconcile. Of course, Xuzhou also had to cede some cities. This was also the price that the weaker side had to pay.
When Sun Qian arrived at Danyin City, Yuan Shao had already retreated in despair for three days. Looking at the desolate Danyin and the flags of the Bingzhou Army floating on the city, Sun Qian was shocked. When he was in Xuzhou, he learned
The news is that the Bingzhou Army is attacking Dangyin and is on par with the Jizhou Army. But now it seems that the Jizhou Army has lost, otherwise why would Dangyin fall into Lu Bu's hands.
"Greetings to the Marquis of Jin!" Sun Qian bowed respectfully. Although there was some unhappiness between Liu Bei and Lu Bu, Lu Bu's friendship in rescuing Xuzhou in the past could not be forgotten. Even the officials and generals of Xuzhou mentioned Lu Bu's
At this time, his words were full of respect.
Lu Bu said: "Gongyou went to Bingzhou Army, but I don't know why?" Sun Qian is also a famous figure in history. He has served as Liu Bei's envoy to various parties many times, and he can be said to have made great achievements through hard work.
How could Lu Bu not know about Cao Jun's attack on Xuzhou? However, he could not take care of Xuzhou due to the situation at hand. He wanted to take advantage of a great victory and panic among the people in Jizhou to gain more benefits from Yuan Shao, and finally get more benefits from Yuan Shao.
Fortunately, Jizhou can be captured in one fell swoop.
Sun Qian cupped his hands and said: "The kindness of the Marquis of Jin in rescuing Xuzhou in the past will be unforgettable in Xuzhou. Now the Marquis of Shanyang has gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses to invade Xuzhou. Liu Zhoumu is worried about the people of Xuzhou and hopes that the Marquis of Jin can send troops to rescue Xuzhou.
"
Lu Bu shook his head and said: "The Bingzhou army has been fighting for a long time and the soldiers are exhausted. Why doesn't Liu Xuande ask for help from Jingzhou?"
"Marquis Wu attacked Jiangxia under the pretext of avenging his father. Although His Majesty wanted to save Xuzhou from danger, it was difficult to mobilize troops," Sun Qian said.
Lu Bu said: "Gongyou has had a hard journey, and he will stay in the city for a few days."
Sun Qian bowed his hands and left the hall. He also knew that Lu Bu would not easily send reinforcements. When they were in the coalition, Lu Bu had a close relationship with Cao Cao. This was no secret among the princes.
"The matter of the Xuzhou envoy will be left to Wen He to handle." Lu Bu said slowly.
"My subordinates are willing to attack Jizhou for the front!" Zhang Liao came out and said. The defeat of the Jizhou army failed to release Zhang Liao's hatred. His deputy general Zhang Wu died in the city. It is said that he was killed by the Jizhou army's random swords.
, the corpses are incomplete.
"Wenyuan, don't panic, attacking Jizhou is of great importance." Lu Bu turned his attention to Jia Xu.
Jia Xu understood and cupped his hands and said: "Now Jizhou is not stable. One hundred thousand troops of the Black Mountain Army came out to plunder the counties of Jizhou. However, the tens of thousands of Jizhou Army were defeated by Dangyin. The commander of the Black Mountain Army, Zhang Yanxin, wanted to merge with the state. If he could
By joining forces with them, we will definitely make Yuan Shao unable to care about each other."
Zhang Liao's expression condensed, he didn't expect that Zhang Yan from Jizhou was also a chess piece secretly arranged by Bingzhou.
"Wen He's words are true, but Yuan Shao has been occupying Jizhou for a long time. Although he has lost 50,000 troops this time, there are still tens of thousands of troops in Wei County that cannot be underestimated." Lu Bu also knew that he wanted to capture Ye with the force he had.
The city is extremely difficult, Jizhou is where the largest number of aristocratic families gather, and the aristocratic families in Jizhou are very supportive of Yuan Shao.
The Bingzhou Army went to respond to the Black Mountain Army. If Zhang Yan could take the opportunity to occupy Zhongshan, Changshan, and Zhaojun, Yuan Shao's strength would definitely be reduced sharply.
"Now our army is occupying the area east of Hanoi and its rule is not stable. Even if we attack Jizhou, we will not send too many troops there," Lu Bu said.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. After Cao Cao captured Yinhe Hongnong in Henan, he must have coveted the land east of Henan. At this time, if the Bingzhou army aggressively attacks Jizhou, it will take great risks. On the surface, Bingzhou and Yanzhou have an alliance
Yes, but in the face of interests, this kind of verbal covenant is nothing.
Jia Xu nodded. This was also the result of his discussion with Lu Bu. This was not the best time to attack Jizhou. Jizhou was defeated. What the Bingzhou army had to do was to make Jizhou unstable and wait until Bingzhou recovered from the war.
To clean up Jizhou, it is best to make Jizhou pay the price, and the Black Mountain Army has the confidence. As long as Zhang Yan can capture Zhongshan, Changshan, and Zhaojun, it will become much easier to capture Jizhou.
Lu Bu also found that there were many inconveniences after ruling a large area, and there were too many things to worry about. If the Jizhou army had not attacked Hanoi, I am afraid that the Bingzhou army would be attacking Chang'an at this time.
"General Zhang Liao will be responsible for leading the troops to Wei County this time, with General Pound as his assistant, mainly to deter Jizhou," Lu Bu said.
Zhang Liao had never seen Pound take action, and this kind of place where senior generals of the Bingzhou Army discussed military affairs was not a place Pound could participate in.
"Here!" Zhang Liao said, cupping his fists.
"General Xu Huang has three thousand soldiers and horses to guard Chaoge to prevent Xiaoxiao from causing chaos," Lu Bu said.
At this time, there were only a few households in Dangyin City. Under the siege of the Jizhou Army and a flood, Dangyin City seemed to have become a dilapidated city, with no value for defense.
A city has garrisoned troops, and the city cannot lack the people. The armies stationed in various places rely more on the taxes of the people in the city. If there are no people, they can only rely on the money and food allocated by the state shepherd's office.
In Danyin City, Sun Qian soon learned how the Jizhou army was defeated. Only a thousand of the nearly 40,000-strong army escaped. Jizhou was miserable enough. Even if Yuan Shao had the intention, he might not be able to take care of Xuzhou. At this time,
, Lu Bu would not give up, unless Xuzhou could come up with something that would make Bingzhou excited. Adding in the previous losses, the Jizhou army had lost at least 50,000 soldiers and horses just in Dangyin.
