At the end of July of the third year of Jian'an (198 AD)!

Chang'an!

"Eight hundred miles of urgent orders to all counties in Bingzhou to draw elite troops to assist Jizhou."

"Eight hundred miles of speed up, and the two counties in Hedong and Hebei will draw elite troops to the north to help Jizhou."

"Eight hundred miles of speed up, and the order to Hulao Pass is sent, and the war has begun! Keep a close eye on the movements of Cao Cao's army."

"Eight hundred miles of speed up, and the Luoyang army will go north quickly."

No! No! No!

Military orders rushed out from Chang'an. Within a few days, wars suddenly rose up under Lu Bu's rule, and elite troops from Beiliang who were in charge of the army headed north. Those who didn't know thought that something shocking war had happened.

"I ordered Chang'an to prepare the three armies. In three days, I would lead 100,000 troops to personally attack Yuan Shao, and order the counties along the way to prepare food and grass supply."

Promise ~

When I received the battle report, it was already July 20th, one day away from the 19th July planned by Zhang Liao!

In other words, war broke out in Jizhou yesterday, so there was no need to think too much at this time, especially Lu Bu stared at Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's letters, and the arrangements between the two sides in Jizhou.

"Everyone, please take a look."

The war has begun, and it is difficult to stop the flood. After Lu Bu issued military orders one by one, he conveyed the letter to everyone to watch. After all, Lu Bu understood the truth that soldiers are the most important and quick.

"Tian Feng, you personally sit in Luoyang and be responsible for preparing timely supplying grain and grass to the battlefield in Jizhou."

promise!

"Jia Xu and Guo Jia, follow the army in three days to fight."

promise!

"Cheng Yu, Gu Yong, Chang'an will be controlled by you two, and you will be controlled by the mobilization of troops, horses, food and grass in Guanzhong."

promise!

"I ordered Hanzhong to prepare for war to prevent Liu Zhang, a child from Shu, from being unable to withstand the temptation to send troops."

promise!

"Send an order to Zhang Xiu, Wancheng, to prepare the three armies to prevent the war from approaching."

promise!

After military orders were issued, the civil and military officials realized what was going on, and one of them started to get busy.

At this time, it is no longer a matter of pursuing Zhang Liao's move to take risks or not, but the war has begun, and you cannot tolerate no fight if you say you don't fight.

Three days later!

Lu Bu of Chang'an swore a oath to the stage, and the 100,000 troops of Beiliang burst out of the pass, and the tiger roared in the Central Plains.

Rumble ~

Guanzhong, Luoyang, Bingzhou and Jizhou were rotating wildly under the scorching sun. It was already August when the princes of the world received the news.

Xuchang!

"What! Lu Bu is starting a war!"

Cao Cao stared at the servant who came to report in shock and roared, and immediately roared in anger.

"Damn it, Lu Bu is treacherous! It's treacherous!"

"Zhicai, quickly summon all officials and civil and military officials. Our Cao Cao will lead the troops to fight in person. He will definitely not let Lu Buhu swallow the land of Hebei. Otherwise, the world will be so big that no one can stop this tiger."

Xuchang Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty, when Lu Bu starts a war, Jizhou is already suffering. This time, Lu Bu almost mobilized countless tiger and wolf troops in Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Luoyang."

"In this battle, all the troops under Lu Bu's command gathered in Jizhou and were no less than 350,000 troops!"

Save ~

In an instant, all the officials took a breath of cold air in shock, and the emperor Liu Xie stared at him even more! Lu Bu's Beiliang army, the most elite tiger and wolf army in the world, actually mobilized 350,000 in one breath!

What does this mean? Lu Bu's powerful power is far beyond Dong Zhuo at his peak.

Cao Cao reported to the emperor with a serious expression, and at the same time he told the officials that 350,000 elite troops were able to send about 200,000 troops under his command.

Yuan Benchu ​​has lost most of his troops and generals, and has lost most of Jizhou. At present, there are only more than 200,000 troops.

It’s not that Cao Cao is not as good as Yuan Shao, but that Cao Cao needs to be prepared for too many things. Yangzhou and Hefei need to be prepared for Sun Ce in Jiangdong, and Yuzhou also has the Jingzhou area, such as Wancheng.

The Chenliu area in Yanzhou also needs to be deployed in the Hulaoguan area in Luoyang.

It would be fine if Lu Bu didn't attack, but once he attacked, he would be thunderous, which shocked the world and made Cao Cao even more nervous.

"Your Majesty! Lu Bu is arbitrarily claiming to be the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty and does not take the Great Han Dynasty and His Majesty seriously at all. Moreover, the actions that Lu Bu has frequently made in recent years are known to everyone in the world."

"Once Lu Bu swallows the land of Hebei, then this tiger is like wings on its back. Who else in the world can block the footsteps of Lu Bu's tiger! Who can block this person's ambition!"

A powerful voice echoed in the palace. Emperor Liu Xie was panicked. He knew that there was no good thing in the lords' melee at the moment, but he knew that he could never let the princes dominate the dominance, otherwise waiting for him and waiting for him would be an unimaginable consequence.

Just think of Yuan Shu and you will know! Didn’t Yuan Shu become king with a swelling ambition?

"His Majesty!"

Cao Cao emphasized his tone again, and suddenly all the officials hurriedly stepped out and bowed and started shouting.

"Your Majesty, Lu Bu is rebeling, you should send troops to attack him."

"Lu Bu is ambitious and should send troops."

"A mere vulgar man dares to see the great man's magic weapon and be punished!"

With an angry voice, Emperor Liu Xie also took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice: "Cao Cao! I ordered you to send troops to attack the rioters, Lu Bu."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Cao Cao respectfully bowed to Emperor Liu Xie, and all the civil and military officials bowed and congratulated each other.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Cao hurriedly began to mobilize troops. After all, this time he had almost no preparations. Unlike Lu Bu who had already made preparations secretly, it was relatively faster to mobilize troops.

Jingzhou!

"What? Lu Bu sent troops to Jizhou and attacked Yuan Shao!"

When Liu Bei learned the news, he hurriedly found his confidant military advisor, whom he now relied on and trusted the most.

When Chen Gong heard the news, he frowned and his face became more and more serious.

"Lord, Lu Bu can't wait to break this deadlock. Once Lu Bu completely annexes Hebei, the princes of the world will join forces again, and Lu Bu will not be afraid at all."

"Military advisor, what should our army do now?"

Liu Bei looked at his military advisor in distress. After studying for such a long time, he also knew that he could not just look at the gains and losses of every city and place. Although Liu Biao is almost a grasshopper in autumn now.

But according to the analysis of military advisor Chen Gong, he knew that once the Central Plains decides the winner and the real overlord appears, it is the most dangerous time.

Chen Gong frowned and his face became serious, "Lord, now it's not time for me. We must take down Jingzhou as soon as possible. At the same time, war in the Central Plains began. Lu Bu and Yuan Shao's Cao Cao, who had lost his lips and had a cold teeth after the war started, would never sit still and wait for death."

"Cao Cao will definitely send troops to help Yuan Shao. The lord can contact Sun Ce in Jiangdong quickly and promise to send Jiangxia in Jingzhou to the other party. As long as the Jiangdong army attacks Hefei, Changsha will send him away."

It was a delusion to want to put on a white wolf in the empty gloves of Liu Bei, and after hearing this, Liu Bei looked at his military advisor suspiciously. Although he believed it, he was a little confused.

Looking at Liu Bei's puzzled expression, Chen Gong sighed helplessly: "Lord, Jingzhou cannot be delayed anymore. As long as Sun Ce occupied Jiangxia, the other party must support his lord. Now Lu Bu has started a war with Yuan Shao of the Central Plains, and he has no time to take care of the battlefield in Jingzhou."

"This is also the best opportunity for the lord to completely take over Jingzhou. With Jingzhou's foundation, it only takes two or three years at most. It is no problem for the lord to convene 200,000 troops with a wave of his hand."

"Military advisor, what if Sun Ce in Jiangdong was untrustworthy?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Gong helplessly and asked the biggest question in his heart.

After hearing this, Chen Gong sneered, "Master, tell Jiangdong Sun Ce directly that if he takes Jiangxia and distrustworthy, even if he doesn't want Jingzhou, the lord will lead a large army to drive the untrustworthy people out of Jingzhou."

If you give up, Liu Bei dares, anyway, do you Sun Ce dare?

When Liu Bei heard this, he immediately smiled. He understood the military advisor's meaning, and Sun Ce from Jiangdong must have understood this truth.

Once he falls into this quagmire in Jingzhou, when the Central Plains gets out of their identities, they are all exhausted. How to deal with it will probably be swept by the other party with a great victory.

"Military advisor, Bei understands it, so I will write a letter to tell Sun Ce."

In fact, Jiang Xia was not in Liu Bei's hands, but in the hands of Huang Zu of Jingzhou, but he could not resist Sun Ce's grudges with the other party. Since Zhou Yu took the opportunity to capture part of Jiangxia's territory, Huang Zu has been preparing to surrender Liu Bei and is preparing to call for reinforcements.

As a result, before Huang Zu could lower his face and shout for help, Liu Bei took the lead in selling him for a good price.

Xiangyang.

"Oh, why did Lu Bu start a war with Yuan Shao at this time? How could Liu Bei's ambition not seize this opportunity?"

Looking at the battle report coming, Liu Biao shook his head and sighed with headache, and felt even more depressed.

The Jingzhou army, which he once was proud of, was so unbearable after meeting Liu Bei, and it was simply a Jingzhou army that swept across him.

"Lord, now Lu Bu can no longer become a foreign player."

Cai Mao, also Liu Biao's most strong supporter, looked at Cai Mao and said even more: "Degui, you can see the situation in Jingzhou now. Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Hua Xiong under Liu Bei's command are all enemies of thousands of people. The tiger and wolf soldiers led by him are now attacking the city and plundering the village. Now the troops are approaching the city."

"Even if I want to surrender to Lu Bu, I'm afraid Lu Bu will not have the energy to rescue us now."

Liu Biao sighed sadly, and Cai Mao gritted his teeth with a little ugly expression, and shouted in a deep voice: "Lord, there will be a plan in the end, maybe reinforcements can help us."
