Three Kingdoms: copy Lu Bu's force at the beginning

But Mao Jie went south and asked to see Yuan Shu when he arrived in Shouchun.

Of course, Mao Jie had already grasped Yuan Shu's situation.

Therefore, after arriving in Shouchun, Mao Jie took a generous gift and went to the General's Mansion to meet Yuan Manlai.

Yuan Shu is hard to see, and Yuan Manlai is also hard to see.

Mao Jie stayed in Shouchun for seven days, and came to the General's Mansion sixteen times before he managed to see Yuan Manlai.

After the news of Ji Ling's death reached Shouchun, Yuan Shu immediately appointed Yuan Manlai as a general to lead the three armies.

From this, we can see the degree of trust Yuan Shu has in Yuan Manlai.

In fact, of course Yuan Manlai knew about Mao Jie's request to see him, so he deliberately avoided it for a few days, just to waste time.

With Yuan Manlai's intelligence, of course he understood what Mao Jie was here for.

Don't say that Yuan Manlai has reasons in Hua Yu's hands. Even without these reasons, Yuan Manlai will make a wise choice before Hua Yu is about to dominate the world.

Therefore, if you delay for three days, you can help Hua Yu, and of course Yuan Manlai will do so.

If it weren't for the fact that he was worried that he was Hua Yu's internal response, Yuan Manlai would hang out with Mao Jie for a few more days.

General's House.

Yuan Man came to accept Mao Jie's gift and received Mao Jie.

"Mao Jie has met the general."

"Mr. Mao is welcome, please sit down."

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Yuan Manlai pretended not to know anything: "I don't know why Mr. Mao came to Shouchun?"

Mao Jie cursed inwardly, what a jerk, as Yuan Shu's general, don't you think you are deaf to the situation in the world?

After cursing, Mao Jie still looked very cautious: "Back to the general, I am here for the future of the Da Zhong Dynasty."

Yuan Manlai still looked ignorant: "Oh, sir, please explain in detail."

"Does the general know that the Chinese thieves have already occupied Youzhou, Jizhou and Qingzhou?"

Yuan Manlai nodded: "Huainan is far from the north, and Gu also just found out about it."

Pooh, no matter how far Huainan is from the north, you must have known about it a long time ago.

Mao Jie said: "Everyone in the world knows the ambition of that Chinese thief."

"The Chinese thieves took Jizhou and Qingzhou, and even sent troops to attack Yanzhou and Xuzhou."

"If Yanzhou and Xuzhou fall into the hands of the Chinese thieves, I'm afraid that the land of Huainan will not be alone."

"Therefore, I have come to Shouchun by the order of my lord this time to discuss the matter of resisting the Chinese bandits."

"Oh?" Yuan Manlai still deliberately pretended to be confused, and said indifferently, "The princes of the Guandong have already made blood alliances before, and when one is prosperous, all will be prosperous, and if one is damaged, all will be damaged."

"Since Yanzhou is suffering from swords and soldiers this time, our Dazhong Dynasty naturally cannot stand idly by."

"Under Cao Gong's command, there are fierce generals like clouds and counselors like rain, which are far from comparable to my Dazhong Dynasty."

"Besides, since General Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, and Le were killed in Jixian County, our Dazhong Dynasty really didn't have any good generals."

"Therefore, the most that our Dazhong Dynasty can help Cao Gong is just some food and grass."

forage?

Mao Jie rolled his eyes and thought to himself, I didn't expect this guy to be a bit skilled, knowing that I, Yanzhou, have everything but food.

"The general misunderstood." Mao Jie cupped his hands, "Thanks to the general's concern, my situation in Yanzhou is still good."

"Mao Jie is here for Xuzhou."

Therefore, Mao Jie told Yuan Man about the situation in Xuzhou, and asked Yuan Man to send troops to help Guan Ping defend Xuzhou.

This time, Yuan Manlai almost didn't think about anything, and agreed directly, and said that he would bring Mao Jie into the palace to meet Yuan Shu.

Only then did Mao Jie heave a sigh of relief, and the resentment he had felt about not seeing Yuan Manlai for seven days had also subsided a lot.

However, Mao Jie was soon dumbfounded again.

Yuan Manlai brought Mao Jie to see Yuan Shu, but he couldn't see Yuan Shu for more than half a month.

At first, Yuan Shu was busy.

Later, Yuan Shu was not in the palace directly, and the eunuch said that Yuan Shu had gone hunting.

This made Mao Jie furious, and cursed Yuan Shu in his heart, what a stupid bastard.

Hua Ziyi was about to approach the city, and Yuan Shu still had the mind to go hunting. It seemed that he, the founding emperor, would soon become the subjugated emperor.

The founding emperor and the subjugated emperor were the same person, and there was only one before that, Wang Mang of the new dynasty.

But anyway, Wang Mang's new dynasty has a sphere of influence covering the entire thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty.

However, Yuan Shu, the Dazhong Dynasty, only had a small area in Huainan, and it was completely incomparable with the Daxin Dynasty.

Moreover, although the Daxin Dynasty was short, it still lasted for 14 years.

However, Yuan Shu, the Dazhong Dynasty, might not be able to last even two years.

Mao Jie waited until another 20 days passed before he saw Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was very dependent on Yuan Manlai, and he didn't have any objection. He only said one sentence, and let Yuan Manlai take full control.

At this time, Yuan Manlai had already received news that the Battle of Xuzhou had already started for five or six days.

Zang Ba forced his way out of the city to fight, fell into Zhou Yu's plan, was defeated, and lost Langya.

On the other hand, Zang Ba retreated southward with his remnant soldiers and defeated generals.

Zhou Yu did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but rested in Langya Kingdom.

When Guan Ping heard the news, he was startled and angry, and immediately dispatched all Xuzhou's soldiers, marched north from Pengcheng, and prepared to deploy defenses in Donghai County to prevent Zhou Yu's army from continuing to go south.

In this way, the troops in the counties south of Xuzhou will be empty.

Zhou Yu didn't continue to move, but the Qin Army's South Route Army moved.

After discussing with Pang Tong and Fazheng, Zhang Liao immediately dispatched troops to storm Pengcheng.

Guan Ping deployed Xuzhou's main force in Donghai County, and there were only less than [-] people in Pengcheng.

At this time, Chen Deng made a move, opened the city gate of Pengcheng, joined forces with Gan Ning Liyingwai, the general who attacked Xu, and successfully captured Pengcheng.

Of the [-] Xuzhou troops, [-] died in battle, [-] surrendered, and Pengcheng changed hands.

With Pengcheng changing hands, Guan Ping's Xuzhou army faced the risk of being attacked from both sides, and even cut off the supply of food, grass and ordnance, which would not last long.

The situation in Xuzhou was over, and at Lu Su's suggestion, Guan Ping had no choice but to abandon Donghai County, retreat from Haixi City near the sea, and retreat to Guangling County.

Unexpectedly, Pang Tong had expected that Guan Ping would withdraw from Haixi, and suggested that Gan Ning take Haixi first, but he still used Liu Bei's banner.

Sure enough, Guan Ping was unprepared, strayed into the city, and was defeated by Gan Ning. Guan Ping, Liao Hua, and Zhou Cang all died in the rebellion. Lu Su was captured. Only Zang Ba led less than a thousand people and fled to Jiangdong. went.

Guan Ping died in battle and Lu Su was captured, which means that Xuzhou has completely changed hands.

When the news of Xuzhou's change of ownership reached Huainan, Yuan Manlai had already organized [-] troops and was preparing to go north to Xuzhou.

Hearing the news, Yuan Manlai was naturally overjoyed.

Mao Jie was startled and furious, and cursed Yuan Shu as a fatuous master.

Yuan Manlai was "furious" and immediately ordered that Mao Jie beheaded and the head returned to Cao Cao.
