Cheng Yu glanced at Liu Bei and directly expressed his thoughts.
"Well, let me announce to all directions now that I am the shepherd of Yanzhou."
"promise."
A dozen cavalrymen rushed out in all directions with the news that Liu Bei had become the shepherd of Yanzhou.
"My lord, Liu Bei has just been canonized as Yanzhou Shepherd. He has probably spread the news now."
Tian Feng came to Yuan Shu with the military report he had just received.
“Yanzhou Mu?
Li Jue really doesn’t make people worry.”
After hearing the news, Xu Huang frowned.
"Call Liu Bei the Yanzhou Mu. This will not offend us, but also give Liu Bei strong support. Let him fight against me as the Yanzhou Mu. This will muddy the water. With the talents of Li Jue and others, we can't think of it.
There must be capable people in Chang'an."
Tian Feng shook his head. This was just using Yanzhou to block him and prevent them from attacking Yongzhou after taking Yanzhou.
"It's Jia Xu. This must be Jia Xu's plan. While protecting himself, Liu Bei can fight with us. He is indeed the poisonous warrior Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe."
Based on Tian Feng's analysis, a name flashed in Yuan Shu's mind, Jia Xu.
"Jia Xu?
Why have I never heard of this name? Are you familiar with it, my lord?"
Hearing the name Jia Xu, Tian Feng searched his memory and found that there was no such person.
"Jia Xu is a resourceful man, and his intelligence is not inferior to yours. Fortunately, he is not one of Liu Bei's, so there is no need to consider it for the time being."
Yuan Shu has only heard of Jia Xu in history, but it’s hard to say what kind of person he really is, but Yuan Shu is undeniable, but there is no doubt about the terror of this person. From this point of view, Wang Yun lost his life and Cao Cao died.
You can see it when you have your son and Dian Wei.
"Looking at it this way, we need to make plans early."
Hearing what Yuan Shu said, Tian Feng was temporarily relieved, but facing such a person, it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.
"Well, the key now is not Jia Xu, but Liu Bei. He just got the position of Yanzhou Mu and is now the serious ruler of Yanzhou. He now occupies the great righteousness."
Yuan Shu nodded to Tian Feng, the problem now is Liu Bei.
"My lord, you are just a Yanzhou Shepherd. Now the prestige of the imperial court is gone. We can call ourselves the Yanzhou Shepherd. As for who the people believe, it depends on who has bigger fists."
Tian Feng didn't take Yuan Shu's words seriously, he was just a Yanzhou shepherd, it didn't matter.
"Okay, if that's the case, then let's raise the flag, don't give Liu Bei a chance to breathe, and launch the Battle of Jibei Kingdom. I will defeat them in one fell swoop."
"promise."
After receiving the news that Liu Bei had become the shepherd of Yanzhou, Yuan Shujun did not hesitate and launched an attack on the Jibei Kingdom with the sound of war drums.
"My lord, Yuan Shu has sent out troops, and Feicheng is in urgent need."
The scout came directly to Liu Bei with the military report.
"What is supposed to come has come. Let's just lose Feicheng. If we want to ensure the absolute number of troops and horses, we can only defend Lu County."
When they heard that Yuan Shu was sending troops to Feicheng, this was something they had already predicted, so he did not put his hope in resisting.
"Well, then strengthen the defense of Lu County and fight Yuan Shu to the death."
Liu Bei nodded, that was all he could do now.
"Lord, I suggest that the second general and Cheng Yu be stationed on the mountain outside the city. This way, we can be at the horns of each other with Lu County. If Yuan Shu attacks Lu County, the second general can send troops to attack his rear. If Yuan Shu attacks the second army first,
General, we can send troops to attack his rear."
Chen Gong's typical horn tactics appeared again. If Lu Bu had adopted his tactics in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he would not have been defeated by Cao Cao so easily and died in the Baimen Tower.
"Okay, according to what Gongtai said, Yun Chang and Zhongde, you led 30,000 troops to station in Tushan outside the city, and we are the horns of each other with Lu County. We will win this battle."
Liu Bei is different from Lu Bu. He is much better than Lu Bu in terms of knowing people well and assigning them tasks.
"promise."
"promise."
Guan Yu and Cheng Yu took the order and rushed toward the mountains outside the city with 30,000 elite troops. By now, the defense of Lu County City had been completely formed.
After Yuan Shu captured Feicheng here, he took a short rest and then sent his troops north to attack Jibei Kingdom and Yanzhou's last line of defense.
"My lord, Yuan Shu has now entered Jibei Kingdom, and Liu Bei has stationed nearly 100,000 troops to fight him to the death there."
As the prince closest to Yanzhou, Yuan Shao is most concerned about the situation here.
"Okay, the war is finally about to begin, what should we do next?"
When Yuan Shao heard the military report, he turned his attention to the civil and military officials in the hall.
"Lord, what we have to do now is to prepare our troops and horses. If Liu Bei can persist for half a month or even a month, Yuan Shu will definitely have problems with his food supply. Without food and grass for hundreds of thousands of troops, the result will be devastating.
At that time, we can take the opportunity to go north and defeat Yuan Shu.
I believe that as long as we move, Cao Cao will definitely not be idle. He will definitely send troops at the same time and go north to Xuzhou.
As for Liu Jingsheng, seeing the situation like this, he will definitely send troops to Yuzhou, so while attacking Yuan Shu, we must also take care of Yuzhou.
Sun Jian and Liu Jingsheng are now in the same situation. We can send a letter to Chang'an to help Sun Jian get a position as a shepherd in Yuzhou, so that he can compete with Liu Jingsheng in Yuzhou.
In this way, we can sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers, and when they are almost defeated, we can send out troops and sweep them all away."
Xu You looked at Yuan Shao and directly spoke out the scene he imagined, but the premise was that Liu Bei was strong enough to achieve the effect he wanted.
"Well, Yang Hong, do you have anything else to add?"
Yuan Shao still agrees with Xu You's idea. Now that the world is in chaos, he doesn't mind making the world more chaotic.
"My lord, the only thing you have to be careful about is Sun Jian, the fierce tiger from the east of the Yangtze River. I'm afraid that letting the tiger return to the mountains will cause endless troubles. If Sun Jian and Liu Jingsheng unite, it will be very dangerous."
Yang Hong couldn't find fault with Xu You's plan, but in the spirit of nitpicking, he still chose Sun Jian, the potential thief.
"Liu Jingsheng made a surprise attack on Sun Jian in Sanjin, causing him to lose his troops. He also sent people to rob his Changsha County. Given Sun Jian's temperament, it is better not to kill Liu Biao now. The chance of them joining forces is extremely low, so there is no need to consider it for the time being."
Now Sun Jian is no longer a duckweed. He has an elite army but no soil for them to grow.
If he really proposed to let him be the shepherd of Yuzhou, Sun Jian would definitely be extremely excited and would definitely go all out to occupy Yuzhou. Moreover, even if Sun Jian occupied Yuzhou, he would not be able to get rid of his own supplies in a short period of time and would still be under his control.
Even if one day Sun Jian becomes full-fledged and wants to get rid of him, it doesn't matter. He believes that as time goes by, he can only be stronger than Sun Jian, not weaker than Sun Jian. When the time comes, it will still be easy to suppress him.
"But we still have to be careful. I suggest that we go to the envoy to find out about Sun Jian. If he is willing to put his family in Nanyang, then we can fully support him."
