Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

The situation in Yingchuan County was just as Liu Yu had expected. After the siege and attack on the reinforcements, the military forces of Yingchuan County were almost wiped out. Even if a few troops were left, it would be difficult to form a strong resistance.

Ma Chao wiped out the remnants of Yingchuan County in just a few days.

Liu Yu began to arrange the defense of Yingchuan County. From a defensive point of view, the only person who could threaten the security of Yingchuan now was Yuan Gonglu.

Liu Yu planned to move military forces forward to cope with the pressure of sending troops to Nanyang.

Yuan Gonglu had stationed a large number of troops in Nanyang. The reason why he did not send out most of the troops in Nanyang County was because the importance of Nanyang County was far greater than that of his Yingchuan County.

Nanyang is the birthplace of Emperor Guangwu. Since Guangwu's restoration, he has always attached great importance to the development of Nanyang.

Nanyang has a population of millions. In this era, there are almost no counties comparable to Nanyang County.

It was for this reason that Liu Yu took advantage of the conflict between him and Liu Biao, secretly fanning the flames and making Yuan Shu fearful in his heart.

Although they had never met, Liu Yu was very clear about Liu Biao's attitude at this time.

Although he also wanted to truly control Nanyang, he did not dare to send troops rashly.

Ever since he occupied Jingzhou, his goal has been clear in his mind: four words: protect the country and the people.

After discussing with Guo Jia, Liu Yu moved the troops in Yingchuan forward and set up multiple batches of military forces in the southern part of Yingchuan using the terrain.

Although I dare not say that I can truly resist Yuan Shu's attack,

At the very least it can delay Yuan Shu's army.

As long as he could delay his attack, Liu Yu had the confidence to quickly assemble a group of soldiers and rush to the battlefield.

After arranging all this, Liu Yu looked at the map of Yingchuan in silence.

In terms of military strength, Yingchuan County has completely fallen into Liu Yu's hands, but Liu Yu knows that things are far from that simple.

If you want Yingchuan to truly submit, the attitude of the aristocratic families is the key.

Judging from the current situation, the aristocratic families have not made a clear statement. It is obvious that they do not believe that Yuan Gonglu will withdraw from Yingchuan's historical stage.

In the eyes of the aristocratic families, it doesn’t matter who occupies Yingchuan. What matters is how he can stand firm in troubled times.

They seemed to be hiding in the dark and never leaving their houses, but in fact they were sorting out the situation in Yingchuan County every day.

They quickly came to the conclusion that Liu Yu's strength was not strong and his occupation of Yingchuan was likely to be short-lived.

Liu Yu was not surprised at the attitude of the aristocratic families. Although Yingchuan County fell into his hands, most of Yuzhou was still controlled by Yuan Shu.

"Fengxiao, what do you think of the attitude of the family?"

"A big part of the reason why they stayed indoors was because they were afraid of Yuan Gonglu's revenge. We just need to let them know that Yuan Gonglu will never come back. They will definitely come to the Lord's Mansion and apologize for their crimes."

"Feng Xiao is right. If we want them to understand this, we have to win continuously."

"Two days have passed. Is there any news about Yide and Zilong?"

Guo Jia took out a battle report and handed it to Liu Yu.

"My Lord, please look, they have already occupied Suiyang and Chen County, and are now leading their cavalry to attack other places. If they continue at this pace, they will be able to achieve their goals in a few days."

Both Liang and Chen are plains, and there are no mountains at all within their territories, which makes them very suitable for cavalry combat.

It was for this reason that Liu Yu assigned all his cavalry to the two of them.

In today's era, the cavalry's assault capability is absolutely overwhelming.

"We have captured three counties in Yuzhou in a row. What do you think Yuan Benchu ​​will do?"

"He will definitely be furious. Even if he is worried about Liu Jingsheng's threat, I'm afraid he will not remain indifferent."

"Feng Xiao is right." Liu Yu nodded in agreement. "From the current situation, it will be difficult to capture Pei State. It will inevitably be another fierce battle."

"My lord, you are right. It will be difficult to capture Pei State. Yuan Gonglu has a strong army. If we want to attack by force, even if we win, we will suffer heavy losses. If we want Yuan Gonglu to split his troops, we need to do something about Liu Jingsheng."

"Seeing Fengxiao is so confident, he must have a good plan in mind."

Guo Jia laughed.

"It's not a very clever plan. After taking the three counties, you just need them to announce that they want to rest and recuperate, and paralyze Yuan Gonglu."

"Also, spread the news that Liu Jingsheng is going to Nanyang County. Yuan Gonglu will definitely become suspicious. When Yuan Gonglu relaxes his vigilance, my lord will send out elite soldiers to attack Pei State. This way, we can win the battle in one battle."

Liu Yu thought for a moment and felt that this method was the best option to capture Pei State. If this strategy did not work, then the only way left was to attack by force.

Soon, the news that Chen and Liang had been occupied by Liu Yu spread throughout Yingchuan County and even the whole world.

Conquering three counties in ten days was Liu Yu's brilliant achievement.

Even the famous generals in ancient times would probably not have achieved such a record.

I have long heard that Uncle Liu is resourceful, but after this incident, I realized that he is even more resourceful than the rumors.

The aristocratic families in Yingchuan County were shocked by the news. They looked at Liu Yu's momentum and saw that the soldiers in Yingchuan County followed the rules and regulations without breaking any rules. They had already made a clear judgment in their hearts.

With such a strong opponent like Liu Huangshu, it is probably unrealistic for Yuan Gonglu to return to Yingchuan County.

After confirming the news, they instantly changed their expressions and sent their business cards one after another.

Looking at the thick stack of business cards, Liu Yu had no expression on his face as he flipped through it casually.

It has been confirmed that all the aristocratic families in Yingchuan County are among them.

Among them naturally were the Xun and Chen families. With the support of Liu Yu's glass business, the two families accumulated wealth at an increasingly rapid pace, and the status of the aristocratic families also rose with all this.

When Liu Yu entered Yingchuan County, they also wanted to pay a visit to Liu Yu, but after weighing the pros and cons in their minds, they chose to wait and see.

The children of their families either joined Cao Cao, Yuan Shu or Yuan Shao, but few came to join Liu Yu.

When it comes to interests, political stance is obviously more important.

They themselves will not put family status above their own interests.

Guo Jia looked at Liu Yu, who had no expression on his face, and asked, "My lord, do you want to invite these people in?"

"I have something else to do and need to go out for a while. I'll leave these things to you. If someone sends money and food, do you know what to do?"

"Of course I won't refuse anyone who comes. My lord, don't worry that I won't lose face. As long as they dare to give it to me, I will accept it."

"Now that the Han Dynasty is in decline, it is time for them to sacrifice their lives. As a citizen of the Han Dynasty, donating some money and food to the Han Dynasty is a great honor. Is there anything wrong with that?"
