(PS: There is a distribution map of the sixteen countries in the comment area, including the Northern and Southern Dynasties)

After Yuan Shao fled, he came to Xuzhou to find Yuan Shu.

After Yuan Shu attacked Dong, he occupied the Huainan area and annexed the land of Yuzhou not long ago.

Seeing his brother who was fleeing, Yuan Shu warmly received Yuan Shao.

Seeing Yuan Shao, who was praised by elders in the clan, was now in a mess, now, Yuan Shu didn't know how happy he was.

Since childhood, I have said that Yuan Shao is better than him. Although he is just a concubine's son, what I have heard since I was a child is the praise from the elders of the family, saying that Yuan Shao is better than him everywhere. Now, I am not coming to join him in shame.

This strong contrasting stimulation made Yuan Shu accept Yuan Shao. Not only did he accept Yuan Shao, he also wanted to bring Yuan Shao with him every time. On the one hand, he was to prevent Yuan Shao from colluding with his own people, and on the other hand, he wanted Yuan Shao to see his prestige every day.

"Brother, why are your gorgeous clothes so much dust?" Yuan Shu teased.

Yuan Shao turned his head away with shame, showing shame. "My brother, it's all my brothers who are useless and unable to compete with Fang Mu."

In fact, Yuan Shao felt jealous and distorted in his heart.

I just think that the weather is not good and my luck is not good.

Otherwise, Yuan Shu would have no virtue and no way to control such a large territory?

After the bid for Dong was over, Yuan Shao went to Jizhou. He naturally valued the geographical location of Jizhou, and he was confident that he could control Jizhou sooner or later with his own abilities, and then he would use Jizhou as the radiation to annex the Central Plains.

Unexpectedly, before he could take over Jizhou Fang Mu from Han Fu, he led the Youzhou Iron Cavalry to the south and push the way south.

It also caused his subordinates to lose the second general Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and he completely became a commander in the general, and only Chunyu Qiong was left by his side.

Although he was resentful, Yuan Shao did not show any dissatisfaction on the surface.

After all, if you rely on others, you can only show your weakness.

He could also guess Yuan Shu's idea of ​​keeping him by his side.

"Hey, who made us brothers? Brothers have no food to eat. I, as a younger brother, can't help but give my brother a bite of food." Yuan Shu said with a smile, "In the future, you will stay by my side, and we two brothers must work together."

But there was a different thought in Yuan Shao's heart.

Yuan Shu, an incompetent child, can control the land of Yuzhou and Huainan in Yangzhou, so why can't he? And he is also a member of the Yuan family.

King Goujian of Yue can sleep on firewood and taste gall, and I, Yuan Benchu, can do this too.

Yuan Shao, who had failed, abandoned his original arrogance, and all his pride was crushed to pieces in the defeat not long ago.

Yuan Shao's back, which had been straight, quietly bent down at some point, and the ambition in his eyes was hidden in the deepest part of his heart.

"My brother is right, I will rely on you in the future." Yuan Shao said humbly.

"Hahahaha." Yuan Shu not only laughed happily when he saw this.

......

South of Yangzhou.

After taking control of Yangzhou, Sun Jian's forces eroded to the south. Although the land of Jiaozhou was barren, it was vast in area and mostly flat. Although there were many mountains and forests in the territory, you could obtain an open and fertile land by burning the mountains and forests.

Moreover, although Jiaozhou is remote, there are many people who have fled to Jiaozhou due to wars in recent years.

Jiaozhou prefect Xie did not dare to compete with Sun Jian. After fighting with Sun Jian several times, he turned to Sun Jian and found out that he was not Sun Jian's enemy. Since then, the territory of Jiaozhou has fallen into Sun Jian's control.

There are also some celebrities and talents in Jiaozhou.

Sun Jian recruited them under his command by Shi Xie.

Among them, the more famous ones are Liu Ba, Xu Jing, Cheng Bing, Xu Ci and others.

Xu Jing's cousin is Xu Shao, who is the person who praised Cao Cao as "a traitor from Jun Qingping and a hero from troubled times." Xu Jing and Xu Shao are both famous for evaluating people.

Liu Ba was quite talented as a general and was appointed by Sun Jian as a general in Jiaozhou.

But Sun Jian has not had a good life recently.

I thought I could develop slowly if I occupied the southern part of China and Han.

After obtaining Jiaozhou, you can use the Jiaozhou terrain to go north to seek the land of Jingyi.

But then Sun Jian discovered that when did Jiaozhou become a place of four wars?

There are several roads south of Jiaozhou that lead to the southern part of Central and Han dynasties.

There are many small countries over there who fight for years.

Moreover, they never dared to go north to invade the Central Han Dynasty, so Sun Jian subconsciously did not regard them as enemies.

But what I didn't expect was that Juqu Mengxun, a monarch named "Beiliang", led his troops to invade.

Although this person is a Hu man, he has some skills. Liu Ba, who is in Jiaozhou, was defeated by Juqu Mengxun's army and was killed in the chaos. The morale of Jiaozhou has been greatly reduced and it has lost a large area of ​​territory.

Jiaozhou was in chaos, and Juqu Mengxun led his troops to invade.

Sun Jian had to send Huang Gai to stabilize the situation in Jiaozhou.

After Huang Gai arrived in Jiaozhou, he finally competed with Juqu Mengxun, and the confrontation between the two sides was in a balance.

"Who is this Juqu Mengxun? There is such a person in the small southern country. This person should be well-known among the southern countries, right?" After Sun Jian arranged the situation in Yangzhou, he led his troops to Jiaozhou. He wanted to completely pacify Northern Liang, otherwise it would be difficult to go north if the hidden dangers in the rear were not eliminated.

Sun Jian was also a little grateful that Liu Biao and Liu Yan were not the kind of ambitious and enterprising warlords. As long as they did not invade these two people, they would stay on their own ground.

Shi Xie still had some understanding of the southern countries, because Jiaozhou had commercial connections with the southern countries, so he naturally had some understanding of them: "Juqu Mengxun was originally a general of Northern Liang, but later raised an army to kill Duan Ye, the former King of Northern Liang, and established himself as king and controlled Northern Liang."

"This is a partial map of the southern countries close to our Jiaozhou."

The map was spread out, and Sun Jian looked at it.

I saw that there were many countries on the map located in the south of China and Han, but there were mountains between the two sides that separated the two, and only a few official roads could pass between them.

Xiliang, Fore Liang, Southern Liang, Northern Liang, Houliang, Front Zhao, Later Zhao, Northern Wei, Northern Yan, Fore Yan, Fore Qin...

Sun Jian sneered: "A group of small countries."

He held the side of the wooden table with both hands, and the wooden table was zipped by Sun Jian's tiger claws.

With a click, Sun Jian grabbed the left and right sides of the wooden table, and his big hand slapped the table hard.

"Sooner or later, they will be all flattened!"

"All these small countries are Hu regimes?" Sun Jian asked.

Shi Xie said: "Not all, only part of it is the Hu regime, and some Han regimes."

"What about these?" Sun Jian suddenly pointed to the four countries next to Beiliang, all of which bordered Beiliang.

The front is cool, the south is cool, the back is cool, the front is Zhao.

Shi Xie thought for a moment and then said, "The former Zhao lord Liu Yuan was born from the Xiongnu, the former Liang lord Zhang Zhi was a Han Chinese, and the latter Liang lord Lu Guang was a Di tribe, but his ancestors were from the Han Chinese, and this person was considered a mixed-race of Hu and Han. The lord should not be underestimated. Lu Guang is said to be very brave. The Southern Liang lord Tufa Wugu was a Xianbei."

Sun Jian didn't care, so he had never seen the brave Hu people.

In his opinion, this so-called courage is just a boast.

"This Juqu Mengxun is said to be also a Hun." Shi Xie added.

Sun Jian thought, "What is the relationship between Zhang Shin-Yue and Northern Liang?"

"I don't know much about this, but since it's a neighbor, it shouldn't be related," Shi Xie said.

"Hmph, I'll take the troops to attack Jiaozhou. I want to see how many people he has come to Jiaozhou and how many people can defend in Beiliang." Sun Jian sneered. "I want to invite one person. This person can convince the front Liang to send troops."
