Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 269 Situation in the North

Liu Bei's information is very detailed, and the above-mentioned names of Liu Yu have long been heard in books and games of later generations.

So he doesn't need to be introduced by others to know that all of them are people with great abilities.

At this moment, the strength of the Yulin Army is getting stronger and stronger, and it is the time when talents are needed, so when Liu Yu heard familiar names, he felt a little jealous.

Biejia Jushou's ability is not inferior to Tian Feng's. He has proposed many strategies to Yuan Shao many times in history, but he has not adopted them all. Facts have proved that if Yuan Shao can listen to Jushou's strategies, the result of the Battle of Guandu may be Another version.

In addition to Jushou, the other eight advisers and civil servants recruited by Yuan Shao are also famous talents.

In terms of generals, Chun Yuqiong was appointed as the Eighth Captain of Xiyuan together with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and his real strength is much stronger than that recorded in the novel.

Admiral Qu Yi is even more rare and handsome. In history, he was the one who defeated Gongsun Zan in his heyday.

Not to mention the famous Hebei Sitingzhu, almost all of them have the strength comparable to super fighters.

Liu Yu knew very well that it was only a matter of time before Yuan Shao's rise to gain the allegiance of these celebrities and fierce generals.

However, Liu Yu did not regret letting Yuan Shao go, because even if Yuan Shao was killed at that time, there would still be powerful figures to occupy Jizhou.

This person is Gongsun Zan who has the title of White Horse General Shocking Kyushu.

At that time, Liu Yu tricked Cao Cao to Bingzhou and asked Yuan Shao to set his sights on the north after returning to Jizhou. In fact, it also meant to make the three families fight each other.

Because these three people all have the potential to become super overlords, Yuan Shao unified Jizhou, Qingzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou in history and became the super overlord.

Even if Yuan Shao was defeated by Cao Cao in the Battle of Guandu, it took Cao Cao seven or eight years to swallow his territory and completely defeat the Yuan clan. This is the foundation of a super overlord.

Liu Yu didn't want another super overlord to appear, so he deliberately gathered all three of them to the north to restrict each other. In this way, it would not be so easy for anyone who wants to become a super overlord from the three parties.

And when Liu Yu's strength is strong enough, he can easily defeat them one by one.

According to time calculations, Yuan Shao will soon occupy most of Jizhou, and in Youzhou, which is further north than Jizhou, Gongsun Zan has basically completed the stage of accumulating strength.

"The former Jizhou shepherd Han Fu was timid and incompetent. It is not difficult for Yuan Shao to replace him. It's just that a battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan is inevitable!"

"What the lord said is very true. Gongsun Bogui fought against Youzhou, and the foreigners he fought did not dare to approach, but Brother Bogui is too self-willed, and the relationship with Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, is becoming increasingly tense. Once the war starts, he will suffer from the enemy situation!"

Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan were classmates, and worried that Gongsun Zan would be surrounded by Yuan Shao and Liu Yu, but Liu Yu knew that this year was actually Gongsun Zan's most glorious moment.

If history has not changed completely, Gongsun Zan will rise like a blowout in the next half a year. He has a young army, wiped out and recruited a large number of Yellow Turban remnants one after another, and then occupied the eastern part of Jizhou by the way. Pass Yuan Shao half the head.

But then Gongsun Zan was dazzled by the victory. After occupying a large area controlled by the remnants of the original Yellow Turban, he actually appointed his subordinates Yan Gang as Jizhou Shepherd, Tian Kai as Qingzhou Shepherd, Shan Jing as Yanzhou Shepherd, and assigned county guards magistrate.

The feudal lords had already disregarded the imperial court when they took the title of State Shepherd, yet Gongsun Zan even risked dissatisfaction by appointing State Shepherds to his subordinates. Appointing State Shepherds was the job of the court and the Son of Heaven.

Afterwards, Gongsun Zan also killed Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou. So far, Gongsun Zan lost the hearts of the people, and all his advisers and generals also defected one after another, and finally he was wiped out by Yuan Shao.

However, the current history has been distorted. Liu Yu can't guarantee whether Gongsun Zan will do rebellious things after the big victory.

But when two neighboring princes are rising, disputes between them are inevitable, not to mention that Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao had feuded against each other as early as the princes' alliance.

"It seems that the first battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan took place at Jieqiao in history. I wonder if the current situation will change?"

Thinking of the Battle of Jieqiao, Liu Yu suddenly remembered a person.

White Horse and Silver Spear Zhao Zilong.

Zhao Yun's ability is unquestionable, his reputation has been sung for thousands of years, and there are a group of loyal fans of him in later generations.

Although Liu Yu is not a fan, he is also eager for talent for this famous general. It is a pity that Zhao Yun lives in Changshan, Jizhou, more than 1000 miles away from Luoyang.

According to historical records, Zhao Yun was Gongsun Zan who served in the Battle of Jieqiao, and counting the time, it was this winter.

How much Liu Yu wanted to go to Changshan before the cold weather, and then recruit Zhao Yun to his subordinates.

But now that the plan to eliminate directors is at a critical moment, how can he get away with it.

"If I can find someone who has friendship with Zhao Yun and ask him to invite him for me, that would be great!"

Not to mention that Liu Yu really has a person who has a great relationship with Zhao Yun under Liu Yu's command. This person is Zhang Xiu. It's just that Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun may not have met each other, but their names as senior brothers cannot be faked.

Senior brother went to invite junior brother, Zhao Yun must give Zhang Xiu this face!

So Liu Yu thought that after Zhang Ji in Xin'an County was surrendered, he would let Zhang Xiu go to Changshan in person, maybe he could really invite Zhao Yun to Luoyang in advance.

Putting this matter aside, Liu Yu spoke again to comfort Liu Bei who was worried about his old friend.

"There must be a battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan. This is unavoidable. If Xuande is worried about his old friend, he should write a letter to tell him not to make great achievements. If he has made great achievements, he must report to the imperial court and wait for the reward. He must not learn from others and claim his official title. , and you can’t have an affair with Youzhou Mu, otherwise, if you lose your character, you will lose the hearts of the people! That means he is not far from being defeated!”

Among Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Zan has the weakest potential to become a super overlord. In order to balance the power of the three parties, Liu Yu wanted to remind him through Liu Bei's mouth.

"Thank you for your reminder, my lord. Gongsun Bogui is kind to his subordinates. I will tell him my lord's reminder. Maybe with my lord's intervention, Gongsun Bogui will give up competing for territory with Yuan Shao!" Liu Bei thanked.

Liu Yu laughed but said nothing when he heard the words.

Liu Yu doesn't care about the war between Youzhou and Jizhou, and he can't care about this matter either. He just hopes that Gongsun Zan can last longer after the war, and don't call Yuan Shao or Cao Cao the dominant family in the north.

It is best if Gongsun Zan occupies Youzhou, Yuan Shao can only occupy Jizhou, and Cao Cao occupies Bingzhou. The three families coexist and restrict each other.

In addition, Gongsun Zan has been guarding the frontiers for the great Han in Youzhou for decades, and the White Horse Yicong under his command has made foreigners even more frightened.

For this reason, Liu Yu didn't want Gongsun Zan to fall so quickly, because the north of Youzhou was not a desert, and the powerful Xianbei clan was secretly multiplying there.

In order not to let the situation of Wu Huan Hua reappear in future history, Liu Yu had to kill this force in advance.

And Gongsun Zan is a very experienced expert in fighting against foreign races.
