The Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

On this day, the sky cleared and it was a very sunny day.It stands to reason that many merchants, travelers, and common people would enter the city in this weather.

However, because the war has just ended, there are few people living there.This is the aftermath of the war, there is really no way.

And this day is the third day since Chen Sheng led his troops to pursue Cao Cao's victory.

In the south of Wancheng, Chen Sheng led Zhou Cang and some of his own soldiers to see off Wang Wei and Wenpin.Originally, Wang Wei and Wenpin should have left yesterday.

It's just that at the celebration banquet that night, Wang Wei also drank heavily, and he didn't fully wake up the next day, so he was delayed for another day. [

"Take care, two generals."

Chen Sheng turned to Wang Wei sincerely, and Wenpin clasped his fists.

On the opposite side, Wang Wei's spirit was still a little tired, and he hadn't fully recovered from his drunkenness.However, Wenpin's spirit is very good. Faced with Chen Sheng's overtures, Wenpin remains unmoved and just stays in the barracks.

This made Chen Sheng feel a pity, and also respected Wenpin even more.

This is a good general.

"General Chen, take care too."

Wenpin and Wang Wei also returned the gift.By the way, they took a hard look at Chen Sheng, and then they turned around, got on their horses, and led the army away slowly.

This time the coalition forces were quite happy, achieving the goal of defeating Cao Cao.But next time, I am afraid that the two sides will be enemies.

Regardless of Wenpin, Wang Wei is a very far-sighted general, and they are all prepared for this.

"These two generals are brave and good at fighting, and they abide by their duties. They are really famous generals in Jingzhou." Zhou Cang said with a sigh.The implication is that it is the enemy.

Even Zhou Cang could see this.

"Do your own thing well first, it's too early to seize Jingzhou now." Chen Sheng said in a friendly voice, then got on his horse, led Zhou Cang and others into the city, and went straight into the general's mansion and the hall.

When Chen Sheng returned to the general's mansion, the hall, all civil and military officials were already present.Jia Xu, Hu Cheer, Wei Yan, Liao Hua, Fang Gu.

Glancing at the civil and military personnel, Chen Sheng felt a little deserted.However, after a while, Chen Sheng cheered up again. Although they were rare and deserted, they were all elites. With Zhao Yun, they were much stronger than Liu Biao.

After cheering up for a while, Chen Sheng went straight to the first seat and knelt down, while Zhou Cang followed closely behind, and finally stood beside Chen Sheng.

"General."

After Chen Sheng sat down on his knees, all the civil and military personnel saluted Chen Sheng.

"They are all our own people, so there is no need to be so polite." Chen Sheng said.

When the civil and military people heard this, they all took it to their ears, and the etiquette can't be discarded.And Chen Sheng just said something casually and didn't care.Therefore, soon Chen Sheng said: "Wenpin, Wang Wei has left. This means that the alliance between us and Jingzhou has come to an end. Next, we may not turn our faces soon, but with the strength of my Wancheng It is getting stronger and stronger, and the relationship between the two parties may become cold and alienated, so you should be prepared." [

"Don't worry, general, we will not slack off." Liao Hua raised his fist and said.

"Exactly, the general's plan to swallow up Jingzhou, I will never forget to train elite soldiers day and night for war use." Hu Che'er also said emphatically beside him.

"Well, that's good." Chen Sheng was very satisfied when he saw that the generals didn't slack off because of the temporary victory, and they never forgot to attack Jingzhou. He nodded and said.

"Speaking of elite soldiers, we must pay attention to two points." Speaking of elite soldiers, Chen Sheng had some thoughts, so he couldn't help but said to the civil and military soldiers.

"Please show me the general."

Wei Yan and the others responded in unison.

"First, the casualties must be generously compensated, and try our best. This is more important than anything else. I will leave this to Wenhe." Chen Sheng said solemnly, and finally turned his head to look at Jia Xu, with a solemn voice Confession.

"No." Jia Xu remained the same, not talking much.But Chen Sheng believed in Jia Xu, this counselor did things safely.

"Another point is that Cao's army surrendered. I fought with Cao Hong and surrendered thousands of people. I fought with Cao Ren and surrendered thousands of people. Now Cao's army occupies a very large proportion in the army. I ask you Wait, try to appease the soldiers, raise them, and avoid fleeing. I don’t hesitate to reward them generously. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me directly.” After explaining the first thing, Chen Sheng turned his head to the generals, solemnly Said.

The first thing is to pay for the wounded soldiers.The second thing is to prevent Cao Jun from surrendering and fleeing.

Only with the military issue, Chen Sheng would be so solemn and serious.

"No." The generals also agreed with a bang, expressing their understanding.

And Chen Sheng is also very relieved, they are all elites, as long as they are not paralyzed, there will be no problems.

After explaining these two issues, Chen Sheng also felt relieved, and then discussed the details with the generals, and then let the generals go down.

"For me, this can be regarded as turning another page." After the generals left, Chen Sheng got up to attack, walked outside the hall, looked up at the sky, and let out a sound of relief.

Historically, apart from the Xiliang elite soldiers, and the civil and military couple Jia Xu and Hu Che'er, Zhang Xiu had no advantage.

That's why Chen Sheng chose to lobby Cao Cao and got through safely.After that, I don't have any ambitions. It would be great to have some status and raise a concubine Ji.

But fate made a joke with him, and it was fine if he failed to lobby Cao Cao, and he was humiliated.In a rage, he actually supported Zhang Xiu to fight Cao Cao.

After a battle and killing Dian Wei, Cao Ang, etc., he found that the road ahead was bumpy and full of thorns.With Zhang Xiu's power, it is too difficult to fight against Cao Cao.

So, trained elite soldiers, recruited strong generals, and prepared to fight Cao Cao again.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu lay in ambush on the way, was injured, and eventually died of illness.This burden suddenly fell on him.Fortunately, he had a high prestige, quickly integrated the soldiers, and designed to attract Liu Biao's reinforcements, repelling Cao Cao again.

In retrospect, I have really worked hard on this road, and it may be destroyed at any time.Looking back, a cold sweat is indispensable. [

But now it is different.What happened in history, Cao Cao's second conquest of Wancheng has ended.Next, Cao Cao should turn around and deal with Lu Bu and Yuan Shao.

In other words, Cao Cao was unable to carry out another conquest of Wancheng for the third time.

In other words, the time for defense is over and it's time to attack.That's why Chen Sheng felt relieved, and said, "It can be regarded as turning over a new page."

After feeling relieved, Chen Sheng walked around casually to relax.It can be said that Chen Sheng's mood at this moment is the most relaxed moment after traveling to this era.

However, it was only a quarter of an hour.In the final analysis, Chen Sheng is still working hard, for his own survival and future, he keeps running around, running around, until the moment of Cao Cao's death, he can really relax.

No, just after relaxing for a while, Chen Sheng began to think about the changes in history.After the second battle of Wancheng, it was suspected that Cao Cao would point the finger at Lu Bu.

Liu Bei and Lu Bu, the enemies, will put an end to the grievances between the two sides in this battle of Xuzhou.Lu Bu died in battle, Gao Shun and Chen Gong died together, Zhang Liao and other generals surrendered to Cao Cao.

Lu Bu's power was wiped out.

As for this war, Chen Sheng had already laid an ambush.He persuaded Zhang Xiu to enter into Liu Pi and others in Runan, not simply to expand the territory.

But to contact Yuan Shu and Lu Bu.

In the end, the goal of rescuing Lu Bu was achieved.

There is a saying that the enemy of my enemy is my friend.Therefore, it is necessary to rescue Lu Bu.However, is Chen Sheng's ultimate goal as simple as saving Lu Bu?

of course not.

Is it to seize Xuzhou?Of course not.

When Tao Qian was in Xuzhou, it was a treasure land with a household registration of one million. This million household registration is a bit general, and the population is about two to three million.

Wealthy and powerful.

It's a pity that dozens of cities were slaughtered by Cao Cao, and they were very dilapidated.After Liu Bei took over, he barely managed to make a good fortune.As a result, he couldn't hold it, and fought with Lu Bu again and again.

The population declined further.By now, the population is probably only 80 million or even less.The geographical location of Xuzhou is the Central Plains, the place of the Fourth World War.

Coupled with the openness on all sides, it is easy to attack but difficult to defend.

And it may have to face Cao Cao, Sun Ce and other two forces, so Xuzhou is of little value.It's worse than chicken ribs, and it's a pity to throw away chicken ribs.

With that energy and strength, it is the last word to seek to seize Jingzhou.Jingzhou not only has the danger of Hanchuan, but also the defensive power of Xiangshui, and has a population of one million.

If you swallow it, you will become fat in one bite.

But since Xuzhou is meaningless, why does Chen Sheng have other purposes for Xuzhou besides rescuing Lu Bu, Cao Cao's enemy?

some.

Chen Sheng wants to make friends with Lu Bu.

For Lu Bu, Chen Sheng had no likes or dislikes.After all, Lu Bu betrayed Ding Yuan, betrayed Dong Zhuo, and became a family slave with three surnames, and he was also fighting for his own ambition.

But being the leader of a party is different. Chen Sheng is now full of vigilance towards Lu Bu.Therefore, making friends with Lu Bu is not for Lu Bu.

But the soldiers and horses under Lu Bu's command, the generals Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, the counselor Chen Gong, and the rest of the generals are all rare talents.

The most important thing is that Lu Bu still has a Bingzhou iron cavalry under his command. I don't know how many people are left, but it must not be less than a thousand.

If you have this iron cavalry, you can expand the cavalry force and use it as a battle in the Central Plains.

Therefore, Chen Sheng wanted to make friends with Lu Bu.

And making friends with Lu Bu is of course the best way to save lives.Therefore, Chen Sheng wanted to rescue Lu Bu once.

Why do you say rescue Lu Bu once?Because according to Chen Sheng's measurement, Cao Cao had two chances to attack Xuzhou. Historically, before the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao's first crusade against Xuzhou was against Lu Bu, and the second time was because Liu Bei beheaded Xuzhou. Che Zhou occupied Xuzhou again, so a second crusade was launched.

Therefore, if the rescue of Lu Bu is successful, Cao Cao is very likely to launch a second battle to attack Xuzhou.

The second time, Chen Sheng refused to rescue him.

Historically, Lu Bu was defeated in Xiapi because there was no rescue.If Yuan Shu didn't save him, all the princes in the world would not trust him.

And Chen Sheng believed that since he had rescued Lv Bu once, Lv Bu would trust him and lead his elite soldiers to join him step by step when he was in trouble.

This is Chen Sheng's purpose, not Xuzhou, but Lu Bu's troops.

With Lu Bu's military strength, we can strengthen the competition for Jingzhou, which has many benefits.

Of course, this is just a plan.Lu Bu might not defect to him, but even if Lu Bu did not defect to him, rescuing Lu Bu once would add obstacles to Cao Cao and make it difficult for Cao Cao's power to expand to the southeast.

Chen Sheng felt that it was also necessary.

Anyway, the Wancheng forces will open a new page, a page of attack.

And Chen Sheng's first goal was not Xuzhou or Jingzhou, but the elite soldiers under Lu Bu's command, cavalry, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Chen Gong and other generals.

However, how to do this requires planning.

As I said earlier, the place of the Fourth Battle of Xuzhou is open and flat. If Cao Jun goes south, with iron cavalry, the three Chen Sheng may not be Cao Cao's opponents.

Chen Sheng believed in this very much.

Because, the consecutive battles against Cao Cao were just because of the defense of the city and the foreign aid of Liu Biao.

Since the three Chen Sheng may not be able to defeat Cao Cao in Xuzhou, how to rescue Lu Bu?

If you don't plan something, you are really sorry for your life.
