Liu Bei secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Because the Liangshan bandits were too fierce, with the fall of Dongguan County, his connection with Xuzhou was cut off.

Moreover, in recent years, Xuzhou has provided massive amounts of food and grass for the national war every year.

So these days, Liu Bei has been relying on the wealth of Mi Zhu to support himself until now. However, even if he marches and fights, even the gold and silver will be exhausted.

Moreover, Qingzhou has a scarce population and it is not easy to recruit soldiers. The Liangshan Banner Soldiers, the elite force of the Liangshan bandits, were recruited from across time and space by Tiandao.

Song Jiang's innate skill is 'Hu Baoyi', which can quickly turn refugees into Liangshan bandits, a special unit, and convert elite bandits into Liangshan tough bandits.

Therefore, even after the great battle, Liu Bei's muscles and bones were strained, and he really couldn't afford to spend any more.

Here is a brief introduction. The Liangshan troops under Song Jiang are divided into three categories:

Liangshan Bandit Soldiers: They are formed from ordinary civilians who have been transferred to different professions. They belong to special arms ranging from iron grade to bronze grade;

Liangshan Bandits: They are formed by Liangshan bandits who have experienced war growth and evolution or are elite bandits who have changed their profession. They are special arms ranging from bronze to silver, and are equivalent to special county soldiers;

Liangshan Banner Soldiers: Liangshan elite soldiers brought across time and space by Song Jiang and his one hundred and eight generals. They can also be promoted from Liangshan ruthless bandits. They are special units of silver to gold grades and are equivalent to special state soldiers.

Since the Liangshan Army is a bandit army, and the sources of troops are quite different, the bandit soldiers' combat effectiveness and fighting will vary greatly.

If the general goes on an expedition to Qingzhou at this time and takes advantage of Liu Bei's contribution to protecting Chengyang County, and if he makes new achievements when conquering Qingzhou, it will be certain that he will be crowned the county governor.

If you can climb the high branch of the general, then it won't be a bad idea to rise to the top like Qin Ge.

"Haha! The champion is invincible and brave. He is the most brave in the world. He is also unparalleled in benevolence and loyalty. Now I can finally fight alongside him, haha!" Zhang Fei smiled while stroking his palms. He stood up and raised his arms and shouted, looking extremely excited.

Guan Yu, who had always remained motionless, showed a rare smile, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I heard that all the subordinates of Champion Hou are brave and good at fighting, especially the one named Zhao Yun. His battle with Lu Bu in Jizhou shocked the world. I didn't expect that Youzhou

There is such an unrivaled hero, but our brothers actually missed him back then. We must find an opportunity to have a good discussion with him this time!"

Hearing this, Zhang Fei knelt on one knee in front of Guan Yu and said with a smile: "That's very good! That's very good! But if I meet the champion, I will have to compete with him in terms of drinking capacity first!"

Guan Yu held Zhang Fei's hand, and the two brothers looked at each other and laughed.

Liu Bei felt a little uncomfortable when he heard that the two brothers, who had always set their sights on the world's heroes and did not take the heroes of the world in their eyes, praised Qin Ge so much. However, seeing the fighting spirit of the two sworn brothers so high, he said: "Yun Chang

, Yide, since the two brothers are so eager to fight! Well, then! You will lead our two hundred thousand elite troops to march into Zhuxu County, and compete with Xu Shu's troops of Champion Marquis. When the generals advance, the two

Brothers can take advantage of the situation and march forward, join forces with Xu Shu, and wipe out the remaining bandits! And I will raise my troops to hold down the formation to prevent the Yellow Turban bandits from connecting with the Liangshan bandits! The dog will jump over the wall in a hurry!"

Guan Yu turned back to Guan Sheng and said: "Sheng'er, you are helping my elder brother to lead the army. After all, you are from Liangshan. It is unjust to betray the Liangshan bandits. It is even more shameless to switch sides now. You should not participate in this battle to capture the Liangshan bandits!"

Guan Sheng quickly stood up and clasped his fists and said: "My child, please obey your order!"

Liu Bei looked a little unnatural. At that time, he asked Guan Yu to persuade Guan Sheng to surrender. Guan Yu believed that this was the behavior of a villain, and it was really unjust for Guan Sheng to betray his elder brother.

If Liu Bei hadn't been stalking him, Guan Yu wouldn't have done such sneaky things.

This incident created a gap between the two of them, and every word Guan Yu said sounded to Liu Bei's ears like a slap in the face.

However, Guan Yu's influence among Liu Bei's forces is now too great. Not only are a large number of evolvers fans of Guan Yu, but the addition of 100,000 elite Liangshan banner soldiers led by Guan Sheng, Xuan Zan, and Hao Siwen has made Guan Yu's reputation even more powerful.

The situation of fighting against Liu Bei.

This made Liu Bei sometimes have to look at Guan Yu's face to act, and Guan Yu was arrogant and restrained, and had very high moral standards.

Moreover, he was so arrogant that even if he faced Liu Bei, he would raise objections if they conflicted with his moral principles, which made Liu Bei even more afraid of him.

…

He Jin feasted in Yanzhou for half a month, and then led a mighty army toward Luoyang, which shocked the whole world.

Everyone expected He Jin to send troops to Qingzhou. Even Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, was gearing up to eradicate the Liangshan bandits, and personally went to Yanzhou to bring a large amount of wine and meat to reward the army.

When they saw He Jin proudly heading to Luoyang without looking back, Tao Qian and Liu Dai were completely confused.

Before the general left, the two of them and a group of Yanxu nobles even knelt down and begged him not to leave. For the sake of the people of the world, they must eradicate the banditry at all costs, so as not to cause a catastrophic disaster like the Yellow Turban banditry in the past.

However, He Jin was full of confidence and said that Qin Ge was there, so that everyone could rest assured that they could quell the Qingzhou banditry.

Now looking at He Jin's disappearing figure, the two feudal officials were speechless and could only shed a thousand tears.

Behind Liu Dai and Tao Qian, the nobles and nobles from famous families in the two states became anxious, and some even began to curse. They all knew that Qingzhou had been stripped of several layers of land by the Yellow Turban bandits.

Now Qingzhou is extremely poor, and all the people have become bandits.

This group of poor men led by the Liangshan bandits, where will their next target be? It must be the nearby Yanzhou, Xuzhou and Jizhou.

When the autumn harvest comes this year, the Liangshan bandits will definitely swoop on the neighboring prefectures and counties like locusts. Wouldn't this cost the lives of these noble families?

Tao Qian was at a loss for words and said to an old man with a beard beside him: "Mr. Chen! What should we do? What should we do?"

This person, wearing a high crown and a fine attire, is Chen Gui, one of the leaders of the Xuzhou gentry.

Chen Gui stroked his beard and looked solemn at this time. Because Chen Gui was famous for his many good plans and strategies, everyone turned to him.

Chen Guisi sighed for a long time: "Now we can only place all our hopes on the champion! There is no one who is good at fighting in the world today than the champion!"

"Mr. Chen, are you kidding! Even if Qin Ge is a tiger, he can't stand up to the wolves! His hundreds of thousands of troops, in front of tens of millions of bandits, even if he is really the overlord of Chu.

, and chewed it up until there was no residue left!" Liu Dai's face turned livid, Chen Gui must be an old fool, and he actually said such nonsense.

Tao Qian knew that Chen Gui was scheming, so he stopped Liu Dai and turned to Chen Gui, wanting to hear his next analysis.

However, at this time, Chen Gui closed his eyes and remained calm without saying a word. All the clan leaders looked at Chen Gui expectantly. Some of them were so anxious that they almost stepped forward and slapped the old man twice. Now they were pretending to be serious.

Tao Qian gently pulled Chen Gui's sleeve and whispered: "Brother Han Yu! The Chen family is the largest family in Xuzhou. Aren't you anxious? Once the Liangshan bandits enter Xuzhou, the hundreds of years of Chen family's foundation will be destroyed."

Once in a while!"

Chen Gui ignored Tao Qian and continued to close his eyes and remain silent.

"Master Chen means that we, the counties in Yanzhou and Xuzhou, should unite and respond to the imperial court's call to send troops to assist Qin Ge in conquering the Liangshan bandits!" Mr. Mei, who had been silent behind Liu Dai, spoke.

Tao Qian and Liu Dai both had grudges with Qin Ge. When they heard what Mr. Mei said, they frowned and many nobles even fixed their eyes on Mr. Mei.

Mr. Mei looked at Chen Gui, who was pretending to be serious, and wanted to go forward and give this old fox a beating. This guy knew about the grudges between Qin Ge and Xuzhou, Yanzhou nobles. Although he thought of a plan, he just didn't say it.

He just hinted to everyone, for fear that his plan would make the leaders of the noble clans unhappy, so he found someone to tell it to test everyone's reaction, and then he would propose a plan based on everyone's reaction. This damn guy is really good at being a person.

Although Mr. Mei and Qin Ge have a sworn hatred and would like Qin Ge to be chopped into pieces, all the properties of the Holy Shield Society are in Yanzhou. If Qin Ge loses and the Liangshan bandits invade, their business in Yanzhou will be destroyed.

Once upon a time.

Mr. Mei could only serve as cannon fodder for Chen Gui and tentatively gritted his teeth and said: "Qin Ge's unparalleled performance in the national war is enough to prove his talent and strategy, and his generals Guan Zhong, Zhao Yun, Xu Shu and Tian Feng are all capable of conquering.

Take the Han Dynasty's Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army as an example of the war-fighting generation and the talented people in the world. During the Yellow Turban Uprising, they were defeated and vulnerable. They even asked the emperor to rebuild the Eighth Battalion of Xiyuan and prepare to abolish the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army. However,

However, in the hands of Qin Ge, the fifth battalion of the Northern Army showed amazing combat effectiveness, comparable to Huo Qubing back then! This is the power of a leader. If a sheep leads a group of lions, then this army will always be sheep, and a lion leads the sheep.

It can burst out the power of lions! The Danyang soldiers and Yunjia soldiers in Yanzhou and Xuzhou are famous all over the world. The reason why they are retreating steadily in front of the Liangshan bandits is that there is no peerless commander like Qin Ge to lead the troops in battle!"

Tao Qian stroked his beard and said: "This is true. Last time Chen Deng led 200,000 Danyang soldiers to participate in the national war. Even facing the Goryeo Tartars who were like magic soldiers, the champion was able to travel thousands of miles with outstanding military exploits! This champion was

Although he is full of gangster spirit, he is really good at using soldiers, and I am afraid that he will never be able to match him in this world!"

Liu Dai, who was psychologically shadowed by Qin Ge, nodded repeatedly when he heard this. After hearing Mr. Mei's analysis, all the noble officials nodded repeatedly, and suddenly felt that he was doing well again.

"Qin Ge cannot be defeated. Even if he cannot eliminate the banditry in Qingzhou, he must become a steel line of defense for us to resist the northward advance of the Liangshan bandits!" Chen Gui saw that the nobles did not reject his strategy and began to talk again.

Everyone turned their attention to Chen Gui and surrounded Chen Gui. Mr. Mei was instantly excluded from the circle. He was an evolver, but in the eyes of these nobles, he was just an ant, and he was incomparable to Chen Gui.

Mr. Mei was holding back an evil fire and was almost mad at Chen Gui, an old bastard.

Under everyone's expectant eyes, Chen Gui continued: "What I just said about counting on Qin Ge does not mean that we will just watch Qin Ge suppress the bandits alone, but that we Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Jizhou must fully support Qin Ge.

Give him enough troops and food supplies so that he has enough strength to fight the Liangshan bandits. Even if he cannot destroy the Liangshan bandits, he will block the Liangshan bandits for us. As long as the main force of the Liangshan bandits does not enter the three states, other

We can still deal with the remaining bandits roaming around!"
