Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 624

but said
After Liu Qi defeated the Qi army and occupied Xuzhou.

And because of Chen Deng's surrender, Xuzhou City had already been taken without a single soldier and without bloodshed.

Immediately, after resting for a day in Xuzhou City, he continued to set off towards Qingzhou. After all, now that the Qi army has been defeated, it is time to continue to attack Qingzhou and defeat Liu Bei.

Liu Qi didn't intend to give Liu Bei another chance to cultivate himself.

What he wants to do is to get rid of Liu Bei and let Liu Bei withdraw from the Central Plains stage, that's all.

You know, this time is different from the time when Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty died. After making so many arrangements, Liu Bei will not have a chance to stand up.

However, defeating the Qi army in Xuzhou and defeating the Qi army was the best time to win Qi and defeat Liu Bei in one fell swoop.

as an opponent.

He will definitely not let go of such an opportunity.

Just letting the army rest in Xuzhou City for a day, they continued to march towards Qingzhou, preparing to completely capture Qi State, occupy Qi State's territory, and expand their power.

But Liu Bei was defeated in Xuzhou and fled back to Qingzhou.

Liu Qi occupied Xuzhou, and Chen Deng, the guard of Xuzhou City, opened the city gate to the news of Liu Qi's surrender.

also spread out.

The rumors after investigation also let the people in power in the Central Plains know the situation in Xuzhou, as well as the news of the duel between Liu Qi and Liu Bei, the winners and losers.

Cao Cao, who personally led the army to attack the land of Yizhou, was not very surprised when he heard the news of Liu Bei's defeat, as if he had guessed it early in the morning.

Now he is leading the army, and is in a stalemate with the Han army led by Zhang Ren in Qishan.

If only so.

It can't resist the pace of his cavalry for long.

What made him scruples was Wei Yan who led the army to support him on one side. Once he attacked the army led by Zhang Ren with all his strength, Wei Yan would definitely take the opportunity to attack his rear.

At that time.

Maybe it wasn't him who led the army to attack the land of Yizhou, and there will be many changes.

If it weren't for Wei Yan's support, he wouldn't have been in a stalemate with Zhang Ren in Qishan, and it is very likely that he has already entered Fushui Pass.

If planned properly.

It is not impossible to go straight to Chengdu.

But with Wei Yan leading the army to support him, he will not act rashly until he has a plan to defeat the enemy.

However, after hearing that Liu Qi had defeated the Qi army, he had taken the land of Xuzhou.

Inevitably, he was still surprised, not surprised by the defeat of the Qi army, but surprised that Liu Qi had captured the land of Xuzhou so quickly, and now he continued to march towards Qingzhou.

In his heart, it is normal for Liu Bei to be defeated by Liu Qi, unless there is some kind of big change, maybe Liu Bei still has a chance to stand up, otherwise there is only one way to lose.

If Liu Qi was defeated, that would be the thing that would shock him.

Obviously nothing like this happened.

But Liu Qi captured Xuzhou and continued to march towards Qingzhou.

It also made him feel the oppression of time. If Liu Qi was allowed to capture Qingzhou and Liu Bei, if he was still in a stalemate here, he would only return in vain in the end.

And he wanted to help Liu Bei, so that he would not lose so quickly, and he had no way to start.

Unless Qishan is captured and the army commanded by Zhang Ren advances towards Chengdu, there is a possibility that Liu Qi will give up attacking Qingzhou and return to defend Yizhou.

thought here.

Cao Cao summoned a group of subordinates to discuss how to capture Qishan.

Liu Qi has already seized the land of Xuzhou, and he cannot continue to delay here.

And Sun Quan, who was sitting in the land of Jiangdong and did not personally lead the army to conquer the land of Jingzhou, also received the situation of the land of Xuzhou.

Also convened a group of subordinates to discuss.

After all, his Wu State and Qi State still have a verbal alliance agreement.

Even if he didn't, he couldn't just watch Qi fall and fall. If Qi fell, it would be difficult for Wu to resist the mighty Han army.

Once Qi was defeated.

The next one would be Wu Guo's turn, and he didn't think that Liu Qi would stop after conquering Qi State.

Sun Quan also felt a little remorseful.

Originally, [-] soldiers were sent to Shouchun to guard against such a situation.

If he didn't act at the first time, he just wanted to let Liu Bei and Liu Qi fight each other to see if there is any opportunity to take advantage of, and whether they can benefit from it.

But I didn't expect Liu Bei to lose so quickly, and he didn't even have a chance to react.

But even for his own sake, he couldn't just watch the state of Qi fail, he could only help the state of Qi, so that Liu Qi could be suppressed.

What's more, Liu Qi is now leading the army to directly attack the land of Qingzhou.

If he can take the opportunity to capture the land of Xuzhou, it will not only hold back the Han army, but also occupy the land of Xuzhou.

At that time, even Liu Bei couldn't let him evacuate.

After all, the land of Xuzhou was lost in Liu Bei's hands, but he took it back.

However, how to implement it still needs to be discussed, and it is not a good thing to act rashly.

In contrast.

Liu Bei fled from Xuzhou and returned to Linzi, Qingzhou.

After hearing that Chen Deng handed over Xuzhou City, Liu Qi took Xuzhou City without bloodshed, occupying the entire Xuzhou land, and he was furious.

Because of Liu Qi's plan.

He was defeated outside Xuzhou City, and less than half of the soldiers who fled back.

The guard Hu Che'er who was sent by him to garrison Xiaopei was beheaded by Pound. The fifty thousand soldiers, except those who died in battle, all surrendered, and Zhang Fei led an army of [-], and also met on the way to support. The ambush army led by Ma Chao and Wenpin was finally defeated, joined him, and fled back to Qingzhou.

series of things.

Anger had already filled his chest.

Unexpectedly, Chen Deng did not evacuate, let alone defend to the death, but chose Kaesong to surrender.

If it weren't for Chen Deng not being here, he would have nowhere to vent his anger.

Chen Deng had already been beheaded on the spot by him.

But now it's just a thought.

Moreover, the most important thing now is how to deal with the problem of the Han army. You must know that Liu Qi did not intend to just capture the land of Xuzhou, but the entire land of Qi.

Now he is also leading the army towards Qingzhou.

No matter how angry he is now, the things that need to be solved in front of him still need to be solved, and these troubles will not disappear automatically because of his anger.

Facing the current situation.

He also felt very tired and didn't know how to deal with the matter in front of him.

Now is the time of life and death.

Regardless of Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Quan and others.

Liu Qi was not in the mood to pay attention to it. Now he has led an army into Qingzhou and is heading towards Qingzhou. His goal is to take down the entire land of Qi.
