The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 127 Unifying Jizhou and Shocking the World
"All the generals listen to the order and set up the formation - defend against the enemy~~~~"

On that day, outside Yuyang City, it was snowing all over the sky. Following Gongsun Zan's long-drawn-out order, Bai Mayi jumped out of his horse and charged directly at Liu Yu's army.

In an instant, the soldiers fought close to each other, the sound of killing shook the field, and the battle spread rapidly and fiercely like ripples.

.........

Jizhou, Bohai County, above the city tower.

"What? Liu Yu was defeated?"

Hearing this news, Cheng Yuanzhi's eyeballs almost shot out from their sockets, his figure wobbled, and he almost stumbled and fell off the tower.

Liu Yu has a full 15 horses!
To be beaten to the ground by Gongsun Zan's 7 horsemen... This is too cruel.

"How did you lose?"

The messenger cupped his hands and said: "My lord, Gongsun Zan personally led the white-horse righteous followers, broke into Liu Yu's army, and almost killed Liu Yuge on the spot. Then [-] or [-] soldiers and horses rushed out of the city, killing Liu Yu's troops and fleeing in all directions. Defeated."

"Even Wuhuan and Xianbei, who came to reinforce after hearing the news, were all killed."

"Unfortunately, the general arrived quickly and fought fiercely to stop Gongsun Zan's army from advancing and help Liu Yu gather a lot of defeated troops."

"Now Liu Yu no longer besieges the city, retreats fifty miles, and sets up camp in the southwest of Yuyang."

It should be good soon... Cheng Yuanzhi shook his head when he heard this: "What are the casualties among Liu Yu's men?"

"The Liu Yu tribe lost more than 3 soldiers, Wuhuan and Xianbei each suffered 5000 casualties."

"Gongsun Zan's casualties are unknown, but they are estimated to be around four to five thousand."

8 to 1 battle loss, is this the combat effectiveness of Liu Yu's subordinates? Very good, weak enough!

Big defeat...

"How about the casualties?" Cheng Yuanzhi asked again.

"Return to the lord, there are more than five hundred casualties."

"After the two sides fought hand-to-hand, Gongsun Zan did not continue the fierce battle, and quickly retreated back to the city."

In other words, although Liu Yu was still on the offensive at this time, the siege of Yuyang had been resolved.

Cheng Yuanzhi gave a "hmm", waved his hands and said, "Okay, you can step back and rest."

Jushou took a step closer and said: "My lord, Liu Yu was defeated so quickly. Although it did not delay my plan to annex Jizhou, it changed my plan to go south to Qingzhou and Yanzhou."


This is true!

Cheng Yuanzhi glanced at the civil servants and generals around him, pondered for a moment, and asked, "I'm going to take back Hejian Kingdom and Bohai County, but Leling County has not yet been captured. Do you have a clever plan?"

Since I only brought Jushou with me on this trip, I can only ask him.

"My lord, it's poor to teach you."

Ju Shou shook his head, his face a little ashamed.

Although he is resourceful and resourceful, he is not a god-seeker, and it is impossible to have good plans anytime and anywhere.

Even if it's seeking God, I'm afraid it's okay!

Cheng Yuanzhi was silent, and it seemed that he could only regret it head-on, so he gathered [-] soldiers and horses, and rushed to Leling City, the prefecture of Leling County.

Along the way, Cheng Yuanzhi looked dignified.

Jushou opened his mouth to speak several times, but held back.

The commander of the army drove straight in, and when they reached the foot of Leling City, Ju Shou couldn't bear it anymore and asked:

"Why is my lord so preoccupied? Leling County only has more than [-] troops..."

You don’t understand, that’s Liu Bei. I was directly or indirectly killed by him four times... Cheng Yuanzhi glanced at Jushou, organized his words for a while, and said in a deep voice:

"Liu Bei is the hero of the world, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei under his command are all brave, so don't be careless!"

After saying this, the generals immediately became enlightened.

Liu Bei and the others can despise them, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are still worthy of a high look.

Everyone knows about the battle between the three heroes and Lu Bu. They have all heard of Guan Yu's cruelty and Zhang Fei's bravery.

Yan Liang immediately stepped out and said: "My lord, I would like to lead the battle and kill Guan Yu in front of the battle!"

Wen Chou was not willing to let others say: "My lord, I am also willing to go!"

Cheng Yuanzhi deliberately refused the two reckless men to fight, but he was afraid of hurting their enthusiasm and face, and considering that Guan Yu didn't have a red rabbit at this time, he waved his hand and accepted the two to challenge.

Yan Liang took the lead, followed by Wen Chou. The two came to the city and shouted: "Jizhou General Yan Liang (Wen Chou) is here, who dares to come and die?"

As soon as the voice fell, the city gate opened wide, and a group of people rushed out.

The one who started with a black face was Zhang Fei!

Behind Zhang Fei was a strong man with a red face and long beard - Guan Yu.

When the four of them met, they didn't talk nonsense. Wen Chou faced Guan Yu, Yan Liang faced Zhang Fei, each occupied a space, and they fought like carts.

Cheng Yuanzhi looked up the city tower, and met Liu Bei's gaze.

The latter cupped his hands and said loudly: "Duke Ming is here all right, why did you invade my city today?"

Your city?

Cheng Yuanzhi laughed, and said with one finger, "Leling County has been an inseparable part of Jizhou since ancient times! I am a shepherd of Jizhou, so why don't I know that this city belongs to Xuande?"

"This..." Liu Bei was at a loss for words. No matter how eloquent he was, he couldn't explain how unreasonable it was for Gongsun Zan to appoint him as the prefect of Leling.

When the imperial court persuaded the fight, there was indeed an edict ordering Gongsun Zan to command the three eastern counties of Jizhou.

However, the herald Zhao Qi saw that Gongsun Zan was rude and did not even have basic greeting etiquette, let alone red envelopes, so he withheld the edict, saying only that the edict was lost in the middle and the oral instructions shall prevail.

Gongsun Zan didn't pay attention to the Chang'an court at all, and it didn't matter to him whether there was an imperial edict, so he just dealt with it casually and sent Zhao Qi away.

Therefore, when Liu Bei was appointed as the governor of Leling County, he did not report to the Chang'an court, but only verbally handed over the seal and ribbon to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei glanced at the four people who were still fighting in the city, and cupped his hands again:
"So, can you please allow me to clean up and leave on my own?"

Liu Bei had long received orders from Gongsun Zan, who ordered him to abandon Jizhou and retreat to Qingzhou to join forces with Tian Kai.

But Liu Bei didn't want to evacuate before Cheng Yuanzhi's army arrived.On the one hand, this move is suspected of being cowardly; on the other hand, it will take time to clean up the assets in the city.

Just wait until the army attacks the city.

With no choice, Liu Bei had no choice but to order Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to go into battle, giving Cheng Yuanzhi a warning and letting him know that he was not someone to be trifled with!
Of course, before Guan Yu and Zhang Fei left the city, he had explained that it was enough to defeat the opponent's general, and he must not kill him.

Cheng Yuanzhi reckoned and felt that Liu Bei had already moved all the wealth that could be moved away. If he is forced to stay at this time, let alone whether he can stay, I am afraid that the loss of troops will be certain.

Fifty thousand against ten thousand, the advantage is not big.

If he dispatched additional troops, the Gongsun Zan army from Qingzhou and Yanzhou would surely come to reinforce him, so it would not be worthwhile.

Thinking about this, Cheng Yuanzhi said loudly: "If so, it would be the best."

The four people who were fighting stopped. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei forced their opponents back.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou looked at each other, a little confused.

How come they made peace after fighting?

When Liu Bei saw the two brothers entering the city, he also said loudly: "Please, Ming Ming, please step back ten miles. Our army will leave the city from the east gate."

Ten miles back, acceptable!

With a wave of Cheng Yuanzhi's hand, the army retreated slowly. The [-] soldiers and horses were in order without any confusion.

Liu Bei was secretly amazed.

This wait is half a day.

It was not until dusk that the Jizhou army entered Leling City.

"Has there been any changes in Liu Beijun?"

As soon as he entered the city, Cheng Yuanzhi immediately asked.

Ju Shou said: "No! At this moment, Liu Bei's army has arrived thirty miles east of the city, and it seems that he is going to Qingzhou."

Nodding, Cheng Yuanzhi began to check Leling County's accounts.

Leling County currently has a population of 18. Due to its proximity to Qingzhou, the Yellow Turbans occasionally ravage the area, so the people are relatively small and poor.

Plus Bohai County with a population of 35, and Hejian State with a population of 30.As well as the Hu people who migrated here, the total population of Jizhou is about 600 million.

If Hanoi County, Bingnan Six Counties and Heishan Military Headquarters are counted, the total population under the rule has steadily exceeded [-] million.

Half of the world, all in my hands!

Cheng Yuanzhi held the account book and fell into deep thought.

Relying on the advantage of foresight, when all the princes were still fighting for a county, his power had already spanned three states and ruled tens of millions of people.

The showdown is over, I am the biggest prince of the Han Dynasty!

Bigger than Yuan Gonglu!

So what is the length and what does it not contain...

After closing the account book, Cheng Yuanzhi quickly calmed down and said to himself:

"It seems something is wrong!"

"I seem to have forgotten something?"

No need for him to think, Ju Shou has already given the answer.

"Although my lord has two sons, they are both concubines. The inner room is empty now, and the seat of the mistress is empty..."

Where is it empty?Isn't there another Zhang Xiaoyu, Cheng Yuanzhi thought to himself, and instantly knew what he had forgotten.

Oops!Forgot to marry a wife.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the big man is seven or eight years old, and he is already 31 years old. He will be an older youth in future generations, and he can even call himself an old man here

However, whom to marry?

This is a big problem.

The judge continued: "My lord, there are a few girls of the right age in my family, who are both beautiful..."

The translation means to have a figure with a figure, a face with a face, and a young age.

Before he finished speaking, the others all came to their senses, interrupted the conversation one after another, and said first:
"My lord, my Yan family also has girls of the right age, who are both talented and beautiful!"

"My lord, the Zhang family girl... has big breasts!"

"My lord, the Gao family, a girl from the Gao family! She is seven feet tall and her legs are six feet long!"

"Hmph! In front of the girls of my Qu family, they are all vulgar and vulgar fans!"

"..."

Ulla Ulla Ulla Ulla...

The crowd surrounded Cheng Yuanzhi tightly, and the spittle rained down like stars, spraying him all over his head and face.

"enough!"

Cheng Yuanzhi roared.

Everyone was taken aback for a moment and let go of their hands.

Then the lord was seen squeezing through the crowd, holding his helmet and running away.
