Three Kingdoms Strong Army System

Chapter 120 Quiet 198 Years

During the autumn harvest, Liu Zhang led the army and was still stationed in Luoyang.

However, it does not affect the autumn harvest in Yizhou and Guanzhong.

Because there is no war in Yizhou and Guanzhong this year, and there is plenty of rain, this year is another bumper harvest year.

After finishing the autumn harvest, we entered October.

Liu Zhang began to make military arrangements, which generals should stay in Luoyang and Chenliu, and which generals should lead the army and return to Chang'an by himself.

Back in Chang'an State Shepherd's Mansion, Wu Wan came out to meet them. She didn't care when she saw Ma Yunlu and Lu Qiling in military uniforms following Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang had already sent a messenger to tell Wu Wan that the two of them had arrived at the front line.

Moreover, Ma Yunlu and Lu Qiling still have the merits of beheading generals, and the two of them are even more proud.

Liu Zhang stayed with Wu Wan at the Chang'an mansion for a few days and promised that he would stay with her and the child at the mansion next year.

In Yecheng, Yuan Shao's unresolved character was fully displayed.

As early as when the battle between Liu Zhang and Cao Cao was going on, he gathered his subordinates to discuss how to deal with it every three days.

His counselors Shen Pei, Tian Feng, Ju Shou, Feng Ji, Xin Pi, Guo Tu, Xu You, Xun Chen and others all offered suggestions.

Some suggested sending troops south to attack Cao Cao immediately, some suggested sending troops west to capture Bingzhou, some suggested sending troops to capture Qingzhou while Cao Cao and Liu Zhang were fighting, and some suggested not worrying about anything and developing themselves with peace of mind.

They all gave their own reasons for these suggestions, and they all made sense. Every time Yuan Shao listened to it, he didn't know who to listen to.

After several months of discussions, he still failed to make a decision.

By the time he felt that he should unite with Cao Cao to attack Liu Zhang and not let Liu Zhang become bigger, Cao Cao and Liu Zhang had already stopped fighting.

Then, the decision that was finally made was cancelled.

Some counselors finally saw that Yuan Shao was not a wise master, and the upright Tian Feng cursed Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao remembered what happened to Tian Feng when he attacked Bingzhou, and finally made up his mind to kill him.

Xu You also packed up his belongings, quietly left Yecheng, and headed south.

In order to avoid Liu Zhang's attack, Cao Cao moved his capital to Chen State, Yuzhou.

For a long time, there was no military action.

After several months of fighting with Liu Zhang, he not only lost the territory of two counties, but also lost tens of thousands of people, but his foundation is still there.

Liu Zhang, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao all did not launch military operations abroad in 198.

All of them are cultivating on their own territory and strengthening their own strength.

The three brothers Liu Bei, because of the defeat of Gongsun Zan, also lost the territory of Pingyuan, and they had to wander around.

However, no one is willing to accept it.

Besides, in the south, after Yuan Shu was defeated by Cao Cao once, he was honest for a while.

Because Sun Jian didn't get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, Sun Ce didn't have the opportunity to lead the army alone to attack Jiangdong.

Under Yuan Shu's command, he had a decent life.

However, this is not the life he wants. The life he wants is to fight on the battlefield and make contributions like his father.

However, he is Yuan Shu's subordinate, living in Shouchun, and has no ability to lead the army alone. He can only mobilize dozens of personal soldiers.

His father's old department was still relying on Yuan Shu's food and grass, so he couldn't move.

Because there was no jade seal passed on to the country, Yuan Shu did not proclaim himself emperor, so Cao Cao had no name to call the princes from all directions to besiege Yuan Shu, and Sun Ce and Liu Xun did not break away from Yuan Shu.

So now, Yuan Shu's strength is still very strong.

He occupies Huainan, the capital of Shouchun.Although the territory is small, it is densely populated, commercially developed, and has a military strength of up to 20.

After Cao Cao was pressed to the ground and beaten by Liu Zhang, he became more honest.

But that was only on the surface, he was thinking about strengthening himself all the time.

Liu Biao is not easy to deal with, and it is easy to irritate Liu Zhang; Yuan Shu still has some strength, and he will not be able to attack for a while; Tao Qian is weak, but he has a good reputation, so there is no reason not to mess with him; Qingzhou is chaotic, the easiest to attack, but troublesome Also big.

None of the three major princes moved. Yuan Shu was still planning to take Jiangdong, but he couldn't decide who to send troops.

198 years passed so peacefully.

One year is enough for the princes to recuperate and save food, grass and equipment.

After the spring plowing in 199, Yuan Shao was the first to move, and Yuan Shu was the second to move.

Qingzhou has six prefectures under its jurisdiction, namely Pingyuan County, Donglai County, Beihai State, Le'an State, Qi State and Jinan State.

Originally, Liu Bei became the county magistrate of Pingyuan County because of Gongsun Zan's support, but now Liu Bei has gone somewhere.

Yuan Tan occupied the entire Pingyuan County and Le'an State, and the area north of Jishui in Jinan State. Kong Rong served as Prime Minister of Beihai. The region is only nominally under the orders of the governor of Qingzhou.

Under Yuan Shao's command, there are thousands of generals, but the most powerful generals are only six: Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Ju Yi and Han Meng.

They are known as the four pillars of Hebei, one fierce and one beam.

Except for the six of them, the other generals were a level behind.

In the Battle of Bingzhou, Han Meng died in battle, Zhang He Gaolan surrendered to Liu Zhang, and Yuan Shao's only three generals who could fight well were Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Qu Yi.

Among them, Qu Yi was old and arrogant, Yuan Shao was very displeased.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou are Yuan Shao's favorite generals, who have always stayed by his side, reluctant to be used by others.

After a year of self-cultivation, Yuan Shao ordered Yuan Tan to continue to attack Qingzhou, and must take down Jinan and Le'an countries south of Jishui to threaten the governor of Qingzhou.

There were only 3 people under Yuan Tan's command. It was very difficult to continue going south, so he asked his father Yuan Shao for help.

Yuan Shao was also unambiguous, and sent him three generals, Feng Ji, Lu Xiang, Lu Kuang, and Guo Yuan, as well as dozens of generals and [-] soldiers.

Yuan Tan obtained these resources in Pingyuan County, and immediately crossed the Yellow River like a chicken blood, and then went straight to Jishui Ferry.

In just three days, he crossed Jishui and went south, leaving 2 people guarding the north of Jishui, and 6 people stormed Tai County.

Soon, he captured Tai County and gained a stronghold for going south to Qingzhou.

Afterwards, grain, grass and equipment were continuously transported to Tai County by boat, and Yuan Tan led 6 people to sweep Jinan.

Originally, there were only 1 soldiers in the southern part of the Jinan Kingdom. Where was the opponent of Yuan Tan's army, the Jinan Kingdom immediately asked the governor of Qingzhou for help.

The governor of Qingzhou mobilized his troops and horses, and then united with the troops and horses of the counties in the south of Le'an to resist Yuan Tan, but within three months, Yuan Tan wiped out the main force.

The rest of the time is to clean up the remaining forces in the three counties.
