    There are four forces in Yuzhou.

    Cao Cao is a transcendent existence.

    In addition to Cao Cao, there are Yuan Shu, Liu Bei, and Zhang Xiu. They are all minor princes and have little strength.

    The premise is that they are in a state of division.

    Once an alliance is formed, their strength cannot be underestimated.

    Zhang Xiu had surrendered to Cao Cao a long time ago and became a subordinate force. He usually obeyed orders but not propaganda. He had 80,000 troops under his command.

    As for Liu Bei, his backing is Jingzhou, and he also raises nearly 80,000 horses. He has always been ambitious and hopes to restore the glory of the state pastoral period.

    So after Cao Cao promised some benefits, Liu Bei decided to take the risk.

    He is not willing to stay in a small place like Xinye for the rest of his life.

    Yuan Shu was quite resistant at first. After all, he had the capital to fight both sides.  However, Cao Cao made an offer that Yuan Shu could not refuse, which was to make him king.

    Yuan Shao will also recognize Yuan Shu as a clan.

    Yuan Shu had long wanted to suppress Yuan Shao, but unfortunately he had no chance.  Now that the opportunity came to his door, he couldn't help but feel excited.

    So, he perfunctoryly dealt with Liu Ke¡¯s envoy.

    Cao Cao used various means to draw Yuzhou into his camp as a secret move.

    Except Yuan Shu did not give a definite answer.

    When the time is right, we will send troops.

    But this opportunity must be grasped by Yuan Shu himself.

    In order to induce Yuan Shu to attack Yangzhou, Cao Cao sent 500,000 gold this time.

    Cao Cao was originally a poor man, why was he so generous all of a sudden?

    Because this is a trap.

    As long as Yuan Shu accepts it, there will be no explanation.

    But Yuan Shu was greedy and accepted it directly.

    By coincidence, the envoy sent by Jia Xu also came to Runan, hoping that Yuan Shu would side with Yangzhou. He accidentally drank too much and revealed that Jiujiang County was empty of information.

    Cao Cao's envoy took the opportunity to threaten Yuan Shu. If Yuan Shu refused to attack Yangzhou, he would expose Yuan Shu's dirty deeds.

    Yuan Shu knew that Liu Ke could not tolerate dissatisfaction in his eyes. Under coercion and inducement, Yuan Shu decided to raise troops.

    But instead of acting recklessly, he made a request.

    The troops and horses of Yuzhou were all under his command.

    In other words, both Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu must listen to him.

    The envoy reported the matter to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao agreed.

    As long as we send troops, anything can be said.

    So Yuzhou began to take action.

    Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu led their troops and headed for Runan secretly.

    The three of them scraped together and managed to gather 300,000 troops.

    But what happened to those farmers?

    It seems that Yuzhou has used all its strength.

    Yuan Shu was satisfied with this.

    Now, he is the commander-in-chief of an army of 300,000 people.

    Such a prosperous age has not come for a long time.

    Yuan Shu was so happy that he danced for joy.

    "Now is not the time to be happy. Dongyang Hou is so powerful that we may not be able to make achievements." Zhang Xiu said.

    "What the Governor said makes sense." Liu Bei agreed, he understood it deeply.

    When he first defended Xuzhou, no one could understand his despair.

    He didn¡¯t want to experience this feeling again.

    That¡¯s why Liu Bei is so active.

    Now, all the princes in the world are opposing the hegemony of Dongyang Hou. Let¡¯s see how he responds!

    "You two don't have to worry. Since Cao Mengde handed over the troops and horses of Yuzhou to me as commander, he naturally believes in my ability." Yuan Shu said.

    Your abilities?

    Liu Bei disagreed, but considering that his record was about the same as Yuan Shu's, he didn't say much.

    As for Zhang Xiu, he just wants to make a splash as a capital for promotion.

    Real knife and real gun?

    He was indeed not happy.

    "This time Cao Mengde asked us to sneak attack Yangzhou. He had bad intentions. There was no fighting on the frontal battlefield. Can we call it a sneak attack?" Zhang Xiu said.

    The tone was not polite at all.

    "Xuande's words are reasonable. I think we should delay it for a little longer." Zhang Xiu said.

    Cao Cao has a good idea and is a master of chess.

    However, every chess piece has its own ideas.

    "I agree with the governor."People's opinions.  Liu Bei said,

    Yuan Shu became angry when he saw the two men flirting with each other.

    Although we have had our share of troubles.

    But that was all a misunderstanding, and the misunderstanding has been resolved. By doing this, have you taken me, the leader of the alliance, seriously?

    Such a good opportunity, why do you still have to wait?

    The day lilies are cold.

    "You two, how long can I keep the news of your arrival in Runan a secret? Then it will not be a surprise attack, but a head-on war. With our strength, if we start a head-on war with Yangzhou, I don't need to tell you what the consequences will be, right?" Yuan Shu said  .

    Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu looked at each other: This Yuan Gongdao was so completely bribed by Cao Cao!

    Is it so easy to be a first-timer?

    "What do you think, little leader?" Liu Bei asked.

    "I don't have any high opinions, but I have an idea, that is, take Jiujiang County and then wait and see." Yuan Shu said, "If you two want to perform, you must produce some results, right?"

    Capture Jiujiang County?

    This proposal is indeed relatively conservative.

    Now, Yangzhou¡¯s defense force is mainly on Sun Ce¡¯s side, as well as Dongyang City.

    The defense of Jiujiang County is empty.

    "But, after taking Jiujiang County, will the Marquis of Dongyang give up?"

    Jiujiang County can threaten Dongyang City!

    "I'm afraid that Dongyang Hou will come to defend Xuzhou, and then send his army to turn around and deal with the three of them.

    "Will the Marquis of Dongyang agree?" Liu Bei said disdainfully.

    "If Dongyang Hou has to agree to everything, what are you doing here?" Yuan Shuhe asked.

    Don¡¯t say it, this sentence is quite intimidating.

    "If nothing can be done, withdraw from Jiujiang County." Yuan Shu took a step back and said.

    If it was just a test, neither Liu Bei nor Zhang Xiu had any objections.

    Didn¡¯t you see that Yuan Shu showed his fearless spirit?

    Runan County is close to Jiujiang County.

    When the time comes when Marquis Dongyang wants to take revenge, he will deal with Runan first.

    "Little allies, have you thought about it?" Liu Bei said with a gloomy expression.

    "Of course, I don't know if you two are determined to make great achievements?" Yuan Shu said.

    "Okay, in that case, we will risk our lives to accompany you." Liu Bei said.

    Zhang Xiu also agreed.

    Yuan Shu is very satisfied with the result. It seems that he is still very domineering.

    Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu are both influential figures in Yuzhou. Being recognized by them, doesn¡¯t it prove one¡¯s strength?

    "Moreover, after the matter was completed, Cao Cao agreed to make him King of Runan, and Yuan Shao would lower his arrogant head.

    The future is bright.

    "Actually, I have received news a long time ago that there are only 20,000 defenders in Jiujiang County today." Yuan Shu said.

    Yuan Shu, an old bastard, didn¡¯t say anything until now.

    Liu Bei was very convinced.

    Although their coalition forces are uneven, they still have 300,000 troops.

    With fifteen times the force, can¡¯t we capture Jiujiang County?

    Thinking of this, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel so proud.

    Isn¡¯t the Marquis of Dongyang most afraid of enemies invading his territory?

    This time, let¡¯s see how he resists!

    "Come, let's have a drink!" Yuan Shu said.

    Afterwards, a banquet was held, and Yuan Shu began to communicate with his temporary allies.

    However, how could the news in Yuzhou be hidden from Yangzhou¡¯s informants?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
