It’s not that Liu Chuang is self-deprecating, nor that he is timid and afraid of things.

Perhaps Zhang Liao has not reached the level of his later battle with Xiaoyaojin, but as one of the eight powerful generals, he is not an ordinary person.

Look at the barracks, there are at least two or three thousand soldiers stationed.

This is not the mob patrols in Qu County, nor is it the mob of the children of the Mi family.

Lu Bu's troops are elite soldiers in a hundred battles. Liu Chuang's side, including Mi Xiang and Xiao Douzi, there are only 38 people. How could he successfully break through?

However, Liu Chuang didn't understand why Zhang Liao was stationed in Sanhewan.

But this is no longer a question he needs to consider, because what he has to do now is to rush back and meet with Liu Yong and others as soon as possible, and then discuss ways to deal with it.

Pei Shao did not object, and the two slid down from the mountain bag, quickly found Zhang Cheng, and rushed towards Kaiyang Daze.

At the same time, in the Sanhewan barracks, Zhang Liao sighed very boredly.

He picked up a double-eared lord, sipped the wine, and said with a lonely look on his face: "My lord wants to take Xuzhou, but I asked me to stay here to monitor the Lao Shizi Donghai County... Even Xiaogong can go to Xia Pi, why can't I? Unlucky, it's really unlucky!"

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"Lu Bu's people live in Sanhewan?"

Huang Shao also looked confused and couldn't understand the reason.

Liu Yong said: "In this way, has our road to west been blocked?"

Guan Hai nodded, "Since Lu Bu is garrisoning his troops here, it is probably unlikely that he will break through with the power of us."

"What should I do?"

Liu Chuang couldn't help asking.

Huang Shao pondered for a long time and said softly: "Look north, you can enter Langya.

However, Langya is still under Xuzhou and is adjacent to the East China Sea. Although the Mi family is just a powerful county, it has been rooted in Xuzhou for a hundred years and cannot be underestimated. I guess they have blocked the way to advance north by this time. And even if they enter Langya, who can guarantee that Mizhu will not ask Langya County for assistance? It is not allowed to advance west or north... We are the sea in the east, and the rest is only..."

"Go south!"

Liu Chuang blurted out, but immediately showed a bitter look.

"If you go south, you will be in a completely different direction from Yingchuan."

"It's always better than dying from sleep in Donghai County."

Listening to Huang Shao's tone, Liu Chuang suddenly felt energetic.

"Mr. Huang is planning to get out?"

"In fact, it may not be safe to go south... The Chen family of Guangling was always close to Liu Bei.

If Mi Zhu reported to Liu Bei, how could Chen Deng stand by and watch? At that time, I am afraid that the entire Xuzhou rule will regard you and me as enemies, and then it will be difficult to move forward."

"you mean……"

Huang Shao's face was gloomy and calm. After a while, he spoke: "The only way out is to cross the river and take a detour?"

"ah?"

Huang Shao's words surprised Liu Chuang, and even Liu Yong and others felt something was wrong.

"You mean... to go to Jiangdong?"

Huang Shao nodded, "Now Jiangdong is also in chaos.

Last year, Liu Yao was rushed to Qu'a by Yuan Shu from Shouchun, and both sides tore their faces apart. Liu Yao was also a fool, and he rushed Danyang Prefect Wu Jing and Danyang Commander Sun Ben to Sheyang, and then annexed Hengjiang and became enemies with Yuan Shu and Wu Jing... Wu Jing was the representative of the Jiangdong gentry. He was expelled by Liu Yao for no reason. How could he give up? Therefore, he provoked the Jiangdong gentry to become enemies with Liu Yao and Wang Lang.

Do you know the tiger in Jiangdong, Sun Jian and Sun Wentai?"

Liu Chuang was stunned, "You mean..."

Huang Shao smiled and said, "Sun Jian is Wu Jing's brother-in-law. Although he has passed away for many years, his reputation remains.

Sun Jian had a son named Sun Ce in the Western Xia, who was only twenty-two years old. After Sun Jian died, he worked under Yuan Shu. He heard that Wu Jing was humiliated, so he borrowed some troops from Yuan Shu. In the twelfth month of last year, he crossed the river to help fight in the name of the lieutenant of the Zhe Chong School and assisted Wu Jing in fighting against Liu Yao.

This Sun Ce is extraordinary, he has the spirit of being a father and is extremely brave.

As soon as he crossed the river, he recruited Zhu Zhi, his father's former former subordinate, and then he found his childhood friend Zhou Yu, conquered Hengjiang, defeated Xue Li, and drove Liu Yao from Qua to Yuzhang. Now he is leading his troops to Kuaiji to fight against Wang Lang, and he is even more popular with the Jiangdong gentry. People praise the "Little Overlord of Jiangdong"... The reason why these are said is to illustrate the situation in Jiangdong today, which is extremely chaotic and turbulent.

After the young master crossed the river, he could use Jiangdong to cross the Huai River through Shouchun and enter Runan, and then he could go straight to Yingchuan."

After Huang Shao finished speaking, he stared at Liu Chuang and waited for his answer.

The road is far away, but according to Huang Shao's statement, it is indeed relatively safer. No matter how powerful Liu Bei is, it will not affect the situation in Jiangdong. What's more, he is fighting with Yuan Shu, so Yuan Shu naturally cannot make things difficult for people like him...

However, Liu Chuang always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something very important.

But what exactly is it?

He couldn't remember it again, so he frowned and pondered.

"If we say this, we might be able to fish in the troubled waters of Jiangdong."

Guan Hai couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Huang Shao's face changed, "Sir Qu, don't have this kind of thought... If we can go to Jiangdong, it's best to be content with ourselves and not cause trouble. Jiangdong has always been xenophobic, and the local gentry and tyrants are even more closely related, and they have a close relationship with each other.

Then why was Liu Yao beaten so embarrassed by Sun Ce?

If he is also a royal relative, but he cannot get the support of the Jiangdong gentry... The reason is very simple, this guy is not from the Jiangdong clan."

Guan Hai was originally just a joke, but after hearing Huang Shao's words, his face changed.

"Old Huang, I just said it casually."

"I know you're talking casually, but I'm worried that you'll be reckless."

Guan Hai smiled and didn't speak again.

Liu Yong said: "That's true, but if you want to go to Jiangdong, you must pass through Guangling... How should we cross the river?"

Huang Shao smiled and said, "This is not difficult.

The young master had contact with Xuezhou, Yuzhou Mountain, and Xuezhou also had a good impression of the young master. He had a sea boat in his hand, so he could take us off the boat to Yandu. Then he passed through Hailing from Yandu.

Crossing the river from the Jiangshui Temple and reaching Danyang. As long as we can cross the river, we can be safe."

"Why do you have to go through Runan?"

When Liu Chuang heard Huang Shao mention Xuezhou, he had a flash of inspiration in his mind and suddenly asked.

"ah?"

"I mean, why do we have to leave Runan... Mr. Huang, I remember you once said that you have some foundation in Runan.

After Liu Pigong was defeated by Cao Cao the last time, he hid in Runan. Could it be..."

Huang Shao's face turned red and he showed a look of embarrassment.

"Young master always needs some helpers when he returns to Yingchuan.

I didn't expect Liu Pi Gongdu to be there, but I did have some subordinates in Runan... I had to do it with the great wise mentors. Now they are hiding from all over the world and have no peace. I just thought to find a way out for them."

If Liu Chuang could return to Yingchuan smoothly and return to his ancestors.

There is no doubt that he can at least gain a foothold in Yingchuan. Huang Shao was right, and being able to make a way out for his subordinates is a good thing after all.

"How many people are you in Runan?"

"Before February, there were three or five thousand people; but after being defeated by Cao Cao, there were only seven or eight hundred people left. They are now mostly active in Shangcai area and contacted me a few days ago. I originally planned to let them come to Yuzhou Mountain... But now I think about it, there is no need to go through any trouble. When the young master crosses the Huai River, I ask them to try to pick them up on the north bank, so that they can meet up at that time."

"Um……"

Liu Chuang pondered for a moment, looked up and said, "No hurry in advance, so how can we contact Xuezhou?"

“This is simple!”

Huang Shao felt a little disappointed, but he quickly drove away this idea.

"Since there are troops entrenched in Sanhewan and our way to move west is blocked, we can only go back.

I believe that the Mi family must have not expected that we had arrived here. So if they intercepted and set up a checkpoint, they would definitely concentrate on the east bank of Shushui. Let's turn back now, and now create momentum on the west bank, then take advantage of the chaos to cross the river, go west along the ancestral water, and then board the ship to go south.

Unfortunately, the sea boat in Xuezhou cannot be too far from Yuzhou Mountain, so we can only get off the boat in Yandu.

Otherwise, you can just bypass the river and land in Jiangdong, which is the best choice…”

After Huang Shao said that, he showed regret.
