There are still two hours left before the double ***, please give me my last thanks.

Liu Bei moves so fast!
Cao Peng couldn't help but frown, twisting his brows into the shape of the word "Sichuan". He shook his head repeatedly, looking quite helpless... He really didn't expect that Liu Bei had such courage. He just lost the two county towns without any trace of them.
There was no hesitation at all. Cao Peng originally planned to let Wei Yan hold back Chen Dao and Lu Ji, and then send his troops out of Nanshan to garrison Yushui, posing a threat to Wancheng.
Theoretically, Cao Peng didn't really want to fight with Liu Bei.
He just wanted to take this opportunity to express an attitude and trigger turmoil in the Wancheng area.
After Liu Bei loses 30 tons of food and grass, he will inevitably be short of food and grass. At that time, he only needs to add fuel to the fire and destabilize the situation in Wancheng, which can shake Liu Bei's military morale. At the same time, he can force Wancheng to attack by garrisoning the water.
The extension of Bowang's grain road will inevitably cause many problems. Even if Cao Peng does not attack Wancheng, Liu Bei may not be able to sustain it for too long...
But who would have expected that Liu Bei would give up Bowang and Xi'e!
The result of this was that Liu Bei retreated to Wancheng and strengthened the deployment of troops along the Jishui River.
It can't help but shorten the distance of the grain road and save the distance of transporting grain. At the same time, it can also use this method to frighten the powerful in Wancheng area.
What a strong man who broke his wrist!
Liu Bei is really decisive...
If Cao Peng were in Liu Bei's position, he would not have such courage.
Regardless of the gains and losses of a city or a place, this is the person who does big things. Two counties, with a population of more than 100,000, this guy just doesn't want it, without any hesitation. Cao Peng couldn't help but shook his head bitterly. Liu Bei came out with this move, let him
All previous calculations were in vain.
"Tell Chief Wen to suspend the attack.
Let him camp at Sunset Ju and camp on the north bank of Yushui."
Wancheng is now a turtle shell, and it is very difficult to attack it by force.
It is even possible that there will be a loss of troops and generals, which is definitely not the result Cao Peng expected.
Stationed at Xiyangju, the ferry upstream of Yushui River. If you advance, you can attack Wancheng, and if you retreat, you can defend Bowang. With Wei Yan's ability, he can definitely create a lot of trouble for Liu Bei. However, Wei Yan's army alone is obviously not enough.
It was not enough to deal with Liu Bei. After Cao Peng made arrangements, he ordered Lu Chang, the Wuyin order, to lead three thousand troops out of Nanshan, echoing the sunset, forming a pincer attack on Wancheng...
"Wu Yin now, how much military rations do you have?"
"It can still support 30,000 troops and horses for three months."
"not enough!"
Cao Peng thought about it in his mind, "Immediately reported to Xu Du and asked Shizhong Xun to allocate ten tons of grain and grass from Yingchuan to stock up in Luyang.
Zilu, please immediately send me an order to recruit corvees.
On the pretext that Liu Xuande started the war lightly and disrupted Nanyang, he conscripted troops from all of Nanyang. I will order the Zi family to fully cooperate with you. From now on, the Nanyang Pravda will be published every ten days and will be changed to a three-day issue, and the number will be increased from 500 to 500.
The number of copies will be increased to one thousand and distributed to the entire Jingzhou. I must create this momentum and let everyone know that this is not my fault, but Liu Xuande's crime..."
Yang Di heard this and quickly bowed to obey the order.
After Yang Di left, Cao Peng sat down and tapped his forehead gently, showing a look of exhaustion.
"Uncle, are we going to fight again?"
Deng Ai's childish voice sounded in Cao Peng's ears.
He suddenly opened his eyes, looked up at Deng Ai, and nodded slightly after a while, "Xiao Ai, tomorrow I will leave Wuyin with Aunt Yueying and Aunt Xiahou and live in Zhongyang Town temporarily. Wuyin is next, I'm afraid
There will be no peace, and it will not be a livable place. After you arrive in Zhongyang Town, just study hard... I will hand over the White Camel Soldiers to you, and you must protect your two aunts. Do you dare to accept the order? "
Cao Peng really didn't want Deng Ai to continue to interfere in the war.
Moreover, as he said, once the corvee is imposed, it will be like declaring full-scale war on Liu Bei.
At that time, all kinds of people will be involved in Wuyin, which will be too confusing. Cao Peng will also go on an expedition, and it is indeed not safe to leave Huang Yueying and the two in Wuyin. It is better to let them go to Zhongyang Town, which is after all.
Cao Peng's lair is relatively simple.
However, he may not have the reason for letting Deng Ai leave like this.
Cao Peng simply handed over the white camel soldiers to Deng Ai, leaving only the flying camel soldiers to accompany him.
When Deng Ai heard that Cao Peng handed over the white camel soldiers to him, he was immediately excited and nodded repeatedly...

At the end of May in the 11th year of Jian'an, Cao Peng conscripted troops from the entire Nanyang County in the name of the governor of Nanyang County.
We cannot have many people respond to this conscription, but we must create momentum. At the same time, Nanyang Pravda published a special issue for three consecutive days, criticizing Liu Bei's bad behavior. Lu Yu even wrote the article himself, explaining the whole story clearly.
He made it clear in the Nanyang Pravda: It is not the prefect who is warlike, but the villain who starts the war lightly. Since taking office, Prefect Cao has been working hard to maintain the peaceful situation in Nanyang. But now, Liu Bei declares war without authorization for his own selfish interests.
, causing a large number of casualties to innocent people.
Governor Cao had no choice but to declare his acceptance of the challenge!
For the sake of long-term peace in Nanyang County, Governor Cao hopes that heroes from all over the country will respond to the call and join the imperial army to fight against the rebellion.
As soon as the article came out, there was a sensation in Nanyang County.
The benefits of mastering the mouthpiece are clearly revealed at this time.
Liu Bei reduced his troops. Although the Wancheng area remained stable, in the non-controlled areas, powerful powerful people from Danshui, Wudang, Rangxian and other places responded one after another, expressing their willingness to obey the imperial conquest and fight against rebellion. At the same time, Ji
Yang Censhao and Deng Di took the lead in recruiting a thousand men each, totaling a school of troops, to obey Cao Peng's orders. Cao Peng was not polite and immediately assigned these two thousand troops to Deng Zhi's command. Then,
He appointed Xu Yi as the chief general, Deng Zhi and Du Ji as the army Sima He, and gathered in the south of Tun Zhan.
Ming Dianman led his troops and horses to join Lu Chang at the Nanshan Pass.
Later, Cao Peng personally led five thousand soldiers, marched from Wuyin, and headed straight for the Nanshan Pass.
By the beginning of June, the number of Cao's troops stationed on the banks of the Yushui River had reached more than 15,000. Liu Bei personally took command of Wancheng and ordered Chen Dao to garrison Yuliangji, forming a tense situation and confronting Cao's troops. The troops of both sides
In total, there were nearly 40,000 people, centered on Yushui, stretching south along Jishui River for more than ten miles. Although Liu Bei was unable to counterattack Cao Peng's public opinion war, he did not show any weakness. He firmly defended Wancheng and ordered Guan Yu to
After stationing in Niyang, Mi Zhu, commander-in-chief of Xinye, firmly held the Wancheng area in his hands, and his power was not weaker than that of Cao Peng.
The two sides had a strong smell of gunpowder, but they maintained a kind of restraint between them.
Liu Bei was waiting for Liu Biao's reaction, and Cao Peng was also testing Liu Biao's bottom line...
At the same time, the city of Xiangyang was also in chaos.
The Jingxiang clan group headed by Cai Mao and others had a fierce conflict with Liu Biao's Shanyang old tribe. One side wanted to support Liu Bei, while the other side believed that Liu Bei had provoked the war without authorization and was guilty of an unforgivable crime, so he should be recalled.
This will prevent Jingzhou from being devastated by war.
Liu Biao was caught in the middle, hesitant.
Kuai Yue and others on the front foot suggested that he should recall Liu Bei back, while Yi Ji on the back foot came to persuade Liu Biao to support Liu Bei.
The reasons given by both sides were very sufficient, which made Liu Biao feel in a dilemma.
Liu Biao is really old!
If he had had the courage he had when he took charge of Jingzhou, he would have made the decision easily.
Either fight or negotiate peace, it's that simple.
But now Liu Biao wants to fight and completely occupy Nanyang County, but at the same time he doesn't want to anger Cao Cao and trigger a bigger war.
As a result, the two sides argued endlessly, which made Liu Biao feel dizzy...

However, the quarrel in Xiangyang City did not last long.
On the seventh day of June in the 11th year of Jian'an, Zhangling Colonel Liu Hu suddenly launched a sneak attack on Huyang.
Under the joint persuasion of Li Gui and Liu Qi, Liu Hu finally made up his mind. On the fifth day of June, Liu Hu suddenly entered Xiangxiang.
Then, with Zhonglang General Huang Zhong as the vanguard, he suddenly sent out troops to capture Tangzi Township.
This Tangzi Township is a large gathering, with thousands of households living there.
To the west of Tangzi Township, there are hills stretching for dozens of miles, and then it enters the Xinye area. To the east, there are the lofty mountains of Tongbai Dafu Mountain. To the south is the thousands-mile South Henan Plain, connected with Xiangxiang. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, this place
It is an important pass connecting the north and the south. It is named because it is adjacent to Tangzi Mountain. Although Tangzi Mountain is not high, it stands out from the Tongbai Mountains in the east, just like an eagle's head, overlooking the north and south plains.
The mountains here are steep and the slopes are full of rocks, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
It is located just between Huyang, Xiangxiang and Xinye. In the early Eastern Han Dynasty, the Red Eyebrow Green Forest Army rebelled. Liu Xiuzeng commanded the army and fought against Wang Mang's Chunling Army again and won a complete victory. Geographically speaking, Tangzi Township
It belongs to Huyang and is also the northern gateway of Huyang County.
After Kuai Zheng took office in Huyang, he asked Li Yan to lead the troops and garrison Tangzi Township...
Speaking of which, it was Kuai Zheng who believed too much in his family's influence on Liu Biao. He believed that it was absolutely impossible for the Jingzhou Army to send troops to Huyang.
Unexpectedly, Liu Hu suddenly sent troops.
Li Yan was caught off guard and returned in a panic.
"You just said that Huang Zhong was leading the army?"
"Exactly!"
In the Huyang government office, Li Yan looked embarrassed and bitter.
Pang De listened clearly and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Boping, who is Huang Zhong?"
Kuai Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect that Huang Zhong would lead the army, but this would be troublesome...
Oh, Ling Ming doesn’t know something. This Huang Zhong, named Hansheng, is from Danshui. He is a rare warrior in Nanyang County, and even in the entire Jingzhou...
During the Taiping Dao Rebellion, Huang Han was promoted to Baiwan County Commander-in-Chief of the Military Academy, and he was the confidant of Qin Jie, the prefect of Nanyang at that time.
Zhang Man was besieging the city with a million yellow turbans. Huang Zhong was among the rebels. He beheaded the general as if he were trying to retrieve something from a bag, and made great military exploits. Originally, after the Taiping Dao Rebellion, Huang Zhong should have received a reward. However, he had no intention of serving because his beloved son was ill.
, he resigned and returned home... After all, his son failed to survive. When he came to serve again, Nanyang had changed. The prefect of Qin died of illness, and the new prefect was unwilling to be entrusted with important tasks... When Jing Shenggong took charge
When he was in Jingzhou, because of his old age, he was asked to assist Young Master Liu Pan.
When the Suanzao Alliance formed an alliance, Zhang Zi, the governor of Nanyang, once said: If Han Sheng were ten years younger, even Lu Bu would not dare to touch his edge..."
"Wait, wait!"
Pound suddenly interrupted Kuai Zheng's words and asked in surprise: "Listen to the meaning of Bo Ping's words, could this Huang Hansheng become an old soldier?"
