Legend of Summoning of the Three Kingdoms

Or is it that Yuan Shao has already captured Yanzhou, and Cao Cao's backyard is not stable, so he retreated in such a panic?

Although Liu Bei's guess was not completely correct, it was more than half of it.Something happened to Yanzhou, and Cao Cao had to retreat back to Yanzhou because of the fire in the backyard.But this was not caused by Yuan Shao, but by Lu Bu.

As for the [-] soldiers sent by Yuan Shao, they did not move after setting up a formation on the border between Jizhou and Yanzhou. On the contrary, after learning that Lu Bu led his troops to attack Yanzhou and Cao Cao withdrew from Xuzhou, Qu Yi hurriedly took The [-] soldiers and horses under his command returned to Jizhou.He didn't intend to get involved in the battle between Lu Bu and Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao was busy developing his own power now, so he didn't want to get involved in these things.

A few months after Zhao Yun returned to Youzhou, news came from Xuzhou that Xuzhou Mu Taoqian died of illness. Master Xuzhou.As for Tao Kan, the Xuzhou heir Tao Qian was more interested in, he led his troops to Jiangdong Sun Jian's for unknown reasons.

According to Tao Kan later, Tao Qian was poisoned to death by someone secretly sent by Liu Bei, but Chen Deng, Mi Zhu and others insisted that Tao Qian died of illness, and they also died of Xuzhou Wuzhu after Tao Qian died. Welcome Liu Bei to take over Xuzhou to resist the offensives of the major princes around Xuzhou.

Of course, these are all things for later, and whether Tao Qian died of illness or poison has become an unsolved case.However, Zhao Yun recalled that Di Renjie was in a very good state of mind when he led his troops back to Youzhou from Xuzhou, and Zhao Yun remembered that Di Renjie disappeared after Liu Bei led his troops into Xiapi first. Zhao Yun didn't show up until the end when he was about to go north and return to Youzhou.And where did Di Renjie go during that time?What did you do?Zhao Yun didn't know, and Zhao Yun didn't want to know.

Of course, these are just what Zhao Yun saw, and the real situation is estimated to be known to only a few people in this world.Although Zhao Yun had some guesses, they were just guesses, and Zhao Yun did not utter these guesses until his death, but kept them buried deep in his heart.

After a long journey, Zhao Yun finally returned to Youzhou with [-] cavalry under his command. Looking at the familiar city wall of Ji County in the distance, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Yun's mouth.

Finally home.

Yes, finally back, after several months after Zhao Yun was borrowed by Liu Bei, Zhao Yun finally returned to Youzhou again.Now Zhao Yun can't wait to see Gongsun Xu.

I don't know when, Youzhou has become a place second only to his hometown Changshan in Zhao Yun's heart. No matter how hard it is to go out to fight, as long as you step on the land of Youzhou, you will feel that everything is worth it.

The news of Zhao Yun's return to Ji County also reached Gongsun Xu's ears.

"Zilong is back?" Gongsun Xu put down the brush in his hand, stretched his body on the seat, and showed a pleasant smile on his face.

Since defeating Liu Yu and bringing most of Youzhou under his control, Gongsun Xu has become greedy for enjoyment, and the chair that Gongsun Xu is sitting on now is the best proof.Things like kneeling and sitting were too painful for Gongsun Xu, an ancient man with a modern soul.

However, since Zilong is back, the action this time will be more secure. I believe that Zilong will not be willing to miss such a big battle.

2 Chapter Twenty: Gongsun Xu's Actions

After hearing the news of Zhao Yun's return, Gongsun Xu first met with Zhao Yun, Di Renjie and others, and expressed his appreciation for their behavior this time, and then asked Zhao Yun to lead [-] cavalrymen under his command to the Jixian barracks to rest.After all, Zhao Yun and the others had just returned from Xuzhou, and the journey was full of dust. What they need most now is to rest.

Moreover, my action is not yet ready for implementation, and I still need some time to prepare. During this time, Zhao Yun will be given a good rest. His temper will definitely go away when the time comes.Moreover, Zhao Yun should have noticed some clues on the way to him, so Zhao Yun will not miss this opportunity to rest.

And Zhao Yun did notice something, although looking at the people in Ji County, he didn't see anything, but walking into this mansion that was originally Liu Yu's state pastoral mansion and now changed to Xiaoqi General's mansion, Zhao Yun It is obvious that the atmosphere in the whole mansion is different, it is a sense of tension before the war.But Zhao Yun didn't get any news that any forces were going to attack Youzhou.

So there is only one truth, that is, Gongsun Xu is preparing to send troops to attack other forces, and judging from the current situation in and around Youzhou, it is obvious who Gongsun Xu's target is.

And Zhao Yunna wanted to participate in this battle. This time he went south with Liu Bei to rescue Xuzhou and did not fight a few decent battles at all. Most of Yanzhou had been captured by Lu Bu and retreated.So in the past few months, Zhao Yun has not had a smooth fight.

Although Zhao Yun is not the kind of general who loves to fight, the battlefield is the ultimate destination of a general. Now that he has such an opportunity to fight a war, Zhao Yun will not let it go.

However, the [-] soldiers under Zhao Yun's command were already very tired after running around for a long time in the past few months, so Zhao Yun was worried that Gongsun Xu would use this as an excuse to keep him from participating in the war.

Therefore, in order to participate in the upcoming battle, Zhao Yun decided to take a good rest during this period of time. He didn't expect to be left by Gongsun Xu to guard Youzhou.

After Zhao Yun left, only Di Renjie was left in front of Gongsun Xu, and Di Renjie also understood that there must be a reason for Gongsun Xu to keep him, and it was probably related to his mission to Xuzhou this time.

Sure enough, after a while, Gongsun Xu asked, "How is Liu Bei?"

Di Renjie said: "Back to the general, Liu Bei is now stationed in Xiaopei, and he is quite active with Chen Deng, Mi Zhu and others in Xuzhou."

Chen Deng, Mi Zhu?Gongsun Xu became somewhat interested, and continued to ask, "What about Tao Qian?"

The others replied: "Tao Qian intends to give Xuzhou to Liu Bei, but according to the observation of his subordinates, Tao Qian is also quite satisfied with his son Tao Kan, and he should be testing Liu Bei mostly."

"Oh, how about Tao Kan?"

"Tao Kan is good at commanding troops, and it is precisely because under his command that Xiapi City has been able to last so long in Cao Cao's hands, and this person is quite wise, not an ordinary person."

Hearing Di Renjie's evaluation of Tao Kan, Gongsun Xu smiled slightly. Although he already knew Tao Kan's basic five-dimensional data, but now that Di Renjie gave Tao Kan such a high evaluation, he felt more determined in his heart. up.With Tao Kan in Xuzhou, as long as he adds a fire, he should be able to cause a lot of trouble for Liu Bei.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Xu suddenly said without thinking: "No one has discovered it!"

At this time, Di Renjie had a serious expression on his face, and said to Gongsun Xu: "My subordinates have checked carefully, and absolutely no one will find out."

"That's good. If someone finds out, then you know what to do."

Di Renjie lowered his head at this moment: "This subordinate understands."

Gongsun Xu nodded in satisfaction: "Then you go down. I hope I can hear the good news I want in a few months."

"Your subordinate obeys." Di Renjie responded and then retreated slowly.

After withdrawing, Di Renjie slowly wiped the cold sweat from his head.As the power under Gongsun Xu's name became stronger and stronger, the power exuded by Gongsun Xu was also getting stronger and stronger, which made Di Renjie a little frightened.

However, only such a person is qualified to be Di Renjie's lord.

On the way from Xiaoqi General's Mansion to Mingjing, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Di Renjie's mouth. It could be seen that Di Renjie was very happy now.

After Di Renjie left, Gongsun Xu also fell into thinking. According to what Di Renjie said, with these arrangements of his own, this Liu Bei will never enter Xuzhou as smoothly as in his previous life. Although Liu Bei can't keep Xuzhou, Gongsun But Xu didn't want to give Liu Bei any chance to grow up.And I also want to do everything possible to create a little trouble for Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei can't develop so steadily.

But now it has been almost a year since I defeated Liu Yu. Although Gongsun Xu didn't do anything during this period of time, and didn't summon any new talents, after this year's hard work, all the people under his command With the full cooperation of civil servants, most of the Youzhou occupied by Gongsun Xu has almost recovered.

And the most important thing is that after defeating Liu Yu, Gongsun Xu's side also captured a lot of soldiers who were originally under Liu Yu's command, and by absorbing these soldiers, Gongsun Xu successfully increased the number of troops under his command to as many as 3000 .Now there are seven captains under Gongsun Xu's command, except that Luo Cheng's Baima Yicong has only 1000 men, which cannot be increased, and Zhao Yun has not expanded the number of cavalrymen who have followed Liu Bei to the south. The number of troops under the other five captains has reached five thousand.Moreover, Gongsun Xu also formed a special army for Dianwei, with only [-] people, but it was carefully selected from Gongsun's army and was powerful.

And the 1000 troops led by Dian Wei were named by Gongsun Xu as the Chasing Tiger Army, which means that even if there are ferocious tigers ahead, this army can drive them away.Of course, since the leader of this army is Dian Wei, the name Chasing Tiger Army also has a meaning in it.

It’s just that only Gongsun Xu knows about this, because the current Dian Wei was recruited by Gongsun Xu when he was in Sishuiguan, so the current Dian Wei was not seen by Xiahou Dun and recommended to Cao Cao as he was in his previous life. .

However, in Gongsun Xu's heart, the name Chasing Tiger is very suitable for Dian Wei, and the Chasing Tiger Army has become Dian Wei's exclusive army. Although the number of Chasing Tiger Army is very small, only 1000, Gongsun Xu is I hope this Tiger Chasing Army can leave his name in history.

It is worth mentioning that this tiger chasing army is actually cavalry. Although Dian Wei's infantry combat is better than cavalry combat, as Gongsun Xu's guard army, he must be cavalry.However, although Dian Wei is weaker in cavalry combat than foot combat, he is not that weak, and is still at the level of a super-class fighter.

And after having such a strong army under his command, and after Youzhou has been governed for a year, it is enough to support another big battle, so Gongsun Xu is a little bit ready to move.

And Gongsun Xu's goal is also very clear.Judging from the geographical location of Youzhou, there are only three options for sending troops: Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Qingzhou, but Jizhou is now in the hands of Yuan Shao, and the army is strong. Although Gongsun Xu doesn't want to admit it, but with Yuan Shao's current strength, Gongsun Xu is indeed Not Yuan Shao's opponent.In fact, even if Bingzhou is defeated, it doesn't make much sense, and Qingzhou is still rampant with Yellow Turban forces, and Yuan Shao seems to have a lot of ideas about Qingzhou.

So at present, it seems that Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Bingzhou are not very good choices, at least not now.

Since the outside cannot be solved, the inside should be solved first, so Gongsun Xu decided to send troops to Liaodong to attack Gongsundu after discussing with several of his advisers, first taking all of Youzhou into his hands.After taking full control of Youzhou, Gongsun Xu can wait for the opportunity to attack the Central Plains, using Youzhou as the foundation, and direct his troops to the world.

Chapter 221 Soldiers Out of Liaodong

In June of the first year of Xingping of the Great Han Dynasty, Gongsun Xu gathered [-] soldiers and horses under his command in Jixian County, preparing to go to Liaodong.

Gongsun Xu rode on the white feather horse, wearing exquisite silver armor and a white robe over his shoulders, and a white dragon breaking the sky was hung on the white feather horse. He was a heroic figure.

But it's a pity that there are two people beside Gongsun Xu who are dressed similarly to him, riding a white horse, wearing silver armor, silver helmet, and white robe.And these two people, one handsome and the other cold and arrogant, instantly stole Gongsun Xu's limelight when he was beside Gongsun Xu.

Gongsun Xu looked at Luo Cheng and Zhao Yun beside him with deep resentment in his eyes. As early as when he chose this outfit, Gongsun Xu had a feeling in his heart that this scene in front of him would appear, but now This is also true, although Gongsun Xu looks pretty good, compared with Zhao Yun and Luo Cheng, he is still a lot worse.

So now it should be his home court, but when Luo Cheng and Zhao Yun stood beside Gongsun Xu, people's attention was all on Luo Cheng and Zhao Yun.

As for Gongsun Xu, although he didn't want to talk about it, he was indeed ignored, and under the light of Luo Cheng and Zhao Yun, two handsome guys, Gongsun Xu had no sense of existence at all.

I want to be an emperor, I don't need to be handsome, as long as I have majesty.Gongsun Xu kept reminding himself like this in his heart.
