It will be autumn.

Everyone knows that since the autumn harvest in ancient times, it has been wartime.

Li Che sent Tai Shici to sweep across the three prefectures of You, Ji, and Bing. Whether it was Han Suimateng in Liangzhou or Gongsun Du in Liaodong, they were all guessing Li Che's next deployment.

Now that the battle has been fought, Li Che's strength is obvious. Back then Han Sui dared to rebel with a hundred thousand soldiers, but now he has a hundred thousand soldiers, it's almost as if he didn't have one.

After the fall of the three prefectures, some big and small forces came to vote one after another, ranging from three to five thousand troops to as many as 7 to [-] horses, and some even brought their own territory. Li Che's camp soon ushered in a large number of mixed newcomers. .

Because General Tai Shi Ci was far away in northern Xinjiang, and Gongsun Zan was guarding Yingchuan to lead the soldiers for the elderly, and Lu Bu would leave the military post after the end of his life. The only ones who could hold the field were Zhang He Yangang and others, and many people had the opportunity to fight idea.

Li Che didn't care about these things. It's human nature to fight for power and profit. If you can hold one but can't hold that, it's best if the original team can hold back the latecomers. work for him.

Liu Bei, who had been beaten away by Li Che when he conquered Yizhou, also sent people to surrender. He had accomplished nothing for most of his life, led his two righteous brothers and brought some troops, and attached himself to the forces everywhere. Finally, he was persuaded once to emulate Yuan Shao's turn against the guests. , occupied Yizhou, and was defeated and fled by Li Che's heavenly army. Since then, his reputation has been ruined, and he can't find power to rely on. Until now, the military salary can't be paid, so he has to vote for Li Che.

According to Liu Bei's real thoughts, he would rather vote for Cao than Li Che, not only because Li Che's anti-Han heart is well known in the world, but also because the old master Liu Zhang also served under Li Che's account. If he made a mistake, he didn't accomplish anything, and became a laughing stock among others. Even he himself didn't have the face to work with the old master.

But after thinking about it, Liu Zhang is fatuous and incompetent. He was originally troubled by internal and external troubles. He was unable to defend Yizhou. He went straight to Yizhou, which ruined his plan.

More importantly, the 5 people under his command would no longer even be able to eat. If he hesitated any longer, once the soldiers and horses dispersed, it would be worthless to surrender.

As a last resort, Liu Bei discussed with the two righteous brothers all night, and finally made a decision.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had no objection. After so many years, they had long been accustomed to wandering, and the decision this time was not too bad.

The two generals have made sense, and the only thing left to do is to increase their bargaining chips, which is commonly known as selling for a good price.

Li Che is in charge of the territory of the seven states, with his sword pointing at the world, and many people rely on his forces. Those with more troops than Liu Bei are better trained than him, those with fewer troops than Liu Bei have their own territory, and those with fewer soldiers and no territory at least He can put down his face and flirt with his daughter. In contrast, as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, he has few soldiers and no land, and even the generals under his command are several grades lower than others. Liu Bei finds it really difficult for him to sell at a high price. .

In fact, his two foster brothers are very capable. The second brother Yun Chang killed Yan Liang with warm wine, and the third brother Zhang Fei did not lose in a hundred rounds against Lu Bu. He just followed him for so many years without doing anything, and his reputation was far inferior to others. Liu Bei pondered for a long time, but in the end he couldn't come up with any good idea.

There is no way to do this, he has no advisers under his account.

The former counselor who proposed to occupy Yizhou first, and then Jingzhou, to unify Bashu has no name in his heart.

Zhuge Liang was also very wronged. According to the normal process, after Li Che took over Yuzhou and Yanzhou, he should recuperate and maintain internal security. At least three to five years had to be digested. It was just right to develop during this time. How about a smart person who doesn't care about the aftermath of the governance and uses military force to expand the territory?

He even didn't expect that Cao Cao, Li Che's biggest opponent in the future, would even go to fund the opponent's military rations.

With such coincidences and impossibilities, Yizhou changed hands, and the three-point world is about to become a two-horse struggle. This is an unexpected situation, and it would be unlucky to hit it once in a thousand times.

Later, my elder brother wrote a letter saying that he had defected to Li Che with his old master. From the standpoint of the family, he hoped that Zhuge Liang would leave for Cao Cao as soon as possible.

Eggs cannot be put in one basket, this is the general knowledge of the gentry.

When Yuan Shao rose to power, he had Xun Chen under his tent, and Xun Yu and Xun You of the same clan went to Cao Cao. After Li Che became powerful, the Xun family still sent people to serve as officials under his rule. This kind of multi-line investment is conducive to preserving the family. There is no need to catch too many fish by casting the net widely, as long as one of these people becomes a powerful person is enough.

This kind of multi-line investment will not harm the interests of the lord. On the contrary, although these counselors are from the same clan, or even brothers, as long as they recognize the lord, they will concentrate on planning for him and will not be soft-hearted because of the friendship of the same clan.

Now that Li Che occupies the land of seven prefectures, Cao Cao has just entered the prefecture and has three prefectures in his hands. Although the situation is obvious, he cannot be underestimated. Zhuge Liang is not willing to take refuge in Cao Cao intellectually. Most of the scholars in the world who supported the Han Dynasty were disgusted. In contrast, Li Che had never been an official in the Han Dynasty. Although he also rebelled against Zhang Chao, he rebelled frankly. Yellow Turban Army.

No wonder the remnants of the Yellow Turbans always took refuge in him.

The number of Yellow Turbans under Li Che's tent is indeed quite large, accounting for one-third of his total strength. These people are good at organization, internally united, and hard-working. They were not successful in the past because they did not have a good leader. Now they are under Li Che's tent. Immediately became prestige.

This time when Gongsundu was conquered, Li Che decided to let the Yellow Turban Army take the vanguard.

In order to fight for a place in the battle, the army is very lively these days. The newcomer Liu Bei made friends with everyone, and finally got the quota of two generals under Sun Ce's account.

He was self-aware that he didn't want any of these two places, and gave them to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

On the day of the expedition, Liu Bei was very much like an old father who sent his children to school, bid farewell to his two brothers, and shed a few heroic tears when he was emotional.

Guan Yu choked with sobs, and said: "Now we are under the fence of others, and we are treated with cold eyes. On this golden opportunity, I will live up to my elder brother's great trust, earn some credits and come back to settle down."

Liu Bei cried, "It's my elder brother who is incompetent. No matter what happens on this trip, I hope my second and third brothers are safe."

Guan Yu didn't speak anymore, his eyes were stubborn and cold, which showed that after he went to the battlefield, he would never put his life first.

Zhang Fei also shed two tears, but he felt his heart warm after hearing this. He patted his chest heavily and said, "Brother, you don't have to say those depressing words. Now that you are going to fight, you must let them know that the third master It's amazing!"

Liu Bei was speechless and could only hold the hands of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu tightly.

On this trip, even the lord personally went out of the city to see him off, the general held the flag, and the whole army swore an oath, no one noticed the three faceless young generals saying goodbye in the corner.

It's just so useless.

Li Che wanted to unify the north, so Liangzhou and Liaodong had to choose one of them to attack. Although Gongsun Du was about to burn incense and pray to Buddha, he still couldn't escape this disaster.

Han Suimateng, who was far away in Liangzhou, breathed a sigh of relief.

Han Sui and Ma Teng are brothers with different surnames who are in charge of Liangzhou. Over the years, Liangzhou has been managed like gold. Li Che judged that Liangzhou was much more difficult to fight than Liaodong, so he simply ignored it and focused on dealing with Gongsundu.

Cao Cao occupies the land of the three states, and now Li Che's main force is in the north. It is time to take advantage of this opportunity. Cao Cao held more than ten meetings in the past few days, and finally decided to attack Yuzhou.

Li Che knew that Cao Cao had to hold back at this time unless he died immediately, but the fight against Liaodong was very important, and it was impossible for him to retain too many troops, so he could only fight on two fronts.

On the Liaodong side, there is an elite lineup under Li Che's tent. The coach Tai Shici, the deputy commanders Sun Ce and Yan Gang, there are more than [-] generals under the tent, and the front line in Yuzhou is a mixed pair. Li Che remotely guided the four deputy commanders, namely Zhang Yun, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and Liu Bei.

It can be said that apart from one Zhang Xi, the others are not well-known. Zhao Yun is also famous in the north, and his actual achievements are not many. He only has the title of luck of the ever-victorious general.

Among these people, Cao Cao paid more attention to Liu Bei.

The reason why he paid attention to Liu Bei was Guan Yu. Back then when Guan Yu was the Marquis of Wen and killed Hua Xiong, he had his eyes on this fierce general. Lu Bu is good, but is there any lord who dares to use him?Even Li Che didn't let him go to the front line?

In Cao Cao's view, Guan Yu is simply Bai Yueguang, the military commander in his mind. He is loyal and honest, has strong personal strength, has unworthy courage, and the ability to command the three armies. There is nothing bad about him, except for being single-minded Apart from following Liu Bei, there are no more shortcomings.

These years Liu Bei has been down and out, Cao Cao sent no less than ten people to recruit their brothers, but Liu Bei has been refusing to let go. Unexpectedly, with a wrong eye, Li Che got him.

Cao Cao was so sad that he didn't eat for several days. He would think of Guan Yu's face when he looked at the green cloth. Hearing that Li Che didn't treat his Bai Yueguang well, and only gave him a miscellaneous name, it was even more uncomfortable.

Guan Yu is not uncomfortable.

After leaving the comfortable Xuzhou, he went back to the bloody battlefield. It was different from following Liu Bei all these years. He had not fought a few battles with cold hands. After only a few battles, he regained the feeling of the past. Tai Shici gradually noticed this. As a strong general, he was given more opportunities to fight.

No one thought that there would be such a powerful general hidden under the hands of a down-and-out lord.

After that, Guan Yu won consecutive battles, and within a dozen days, his reputation spread. From Li Che's camp to Gongsun Du's camp, almost everyone knew that the vanguard general Guan Yu was so brave that he could not be inferior to Lu Bu.

All the merits Guan Yu has accumulated these days are enough for the three brothers to live under Li Che's tent for three lifetimes.

Once the second master showed his glory, the third master was much more unlucky. Just a few days after Zhang Fei arrived at the front line, he was reported anonymously for drinking in the army and was locked up.
