Chapter 589 The Battle of Kuangting [-] (Big reward for the poisonous snake eating grass)

Three Kingdoms

Volume [-] Wei Shu [-] Emperor Wu Ji

There was a gap between Yuan Shu and Shao, and Shu asked Gongsun Zan for help. Zan sent Liu Bei to station Gaotang, Shanjing stationed in the plains, and Tao Qian stationed in Faqian to force Shao.Taizu and Shaohui attacked, and they were all broken.

In the spring of the fourth year of Chuping, Cao Cao's army went to Juancheng.Liu Biao, Mu of Jingzhou, cut off the grain road, led the army into Chenliu, and stationed in Fengqiu. He was accompanied by the remaining thieves from Heishan and Yu Fuluo.The artisan general Liu Xiangtun Kuangting.Taizu hit the details, rescued them with techniques, fought with them, and defeated them.Shu retreated and sealed the hills, and then surrounded them. Before they were together, Shu went to Xiangyi, chased Taishou, and decided to irrigate the city with water.Go to Ningling, chase after him, and go to Jiujiang.In summer, Taizu returned to Dingtao.

Liu Bei's battle to conquer Shu was abandoned halfway, not because of Liu Zhang's peace negotiation and insufficient food and grass, nor because he was afraid of Ma Teng and Yuan Shao's attack, even if Xianbei Budugen was ready to move, Liu Bei's heart was not moved.

The reason why Liu Bei decided to lead the army back to the Sanfu was that one was following Guo Jia’s plan to make the generals in Yizhou fight among themselves; battle.

At the beginning of the year, Cao Cao sent troops to attack Dingtao, but Wu Zili, the prefect of Jiyin, defended the southern city and failed to break through.

Lü Bu led his troops to arrive, Cao Cao made a plan to defeat Lv Bu, Lv Bu was defeated, and the Jiyin gentry joined Cao Cao, Wu Zi was forced to slay himself, and Jiyin County was owned by Cao Cao.

In the summer, Cao Cao took advantage of Liu Bei's conquest of Shu to lead troops to attack Juye. Juye defender Xue Lan and Li Feng disagreed.

Lu Bu had no choice but to retreat, so Cao Cao beheaded Xue Lan and the others. Cao Cao then destroyed the surrounding counties of Juye, and most of Yanzhou was captured by Cao Cao.

Lu Bu was not reconciled, so he joined Chen Gong in Dongmin, led more than 1 people and turned back to fight Cao Cao.

Cao Cao knew that he was not as good as Lu Bu in terms of armor and combat power, so he set up an ambush to lure the enemy, and sent out surprise troops to attack. He won the victory by skill and defeated Lu Bu.

Lu Bu fled at night, Cao Cao chased after him, and then sent Dingtao, and divided his troops to pacify the counties. Yanzhou fell into Cao Cao's hands again.

Lu Bu also became Cao Cao's first transportation captain. The tens of thousands of armored equipment Liu Bei presented to Lu Bu through Xu Rong all fell into Cao Cao's hands. There are more than half of the scholars.

Lu Bunan fled to Yuan Shu, and Zhang Miao and others retained Chenliu Commandery.

Originally, the battle of Kuangting took place in the spring and summer of the fourth year of Chuping. However, last year the late emperor died, and Yuan Shu's energy was mainly used to select the young emperor and fight Yuan Shao's wits. Therefore, the battle of Kuangting in the original history never happened.

Now Yuan Shu sits in Yuyang and has two major allies, Jing and Xu. He is already the number one prince in the Eastern Han Dynasty. I thought Yuan Shu would never start the battle of Kuangting again.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu was not satisfied with the current territory, especially when he saw his ally Lu Bu, the governor of Yanzhou, being defeated by Cao Cao, so he once again asked his confidant general Liu Xiang to station in Kuangting, and he led an army into Chenliu, hoping to destroy Cao Cao in one fell swoop. The Yellow River fought Yuan Shao decisively.

After Yuan Shu raised his army, he mobilized food, grass and troops everywhere, dispatching 20 troops, numbering [-]. After deciding to deal with Cao Cao, he immediately crossed the river to destroy Yuan Shao and save Gongsun Zan from fire and water.

Gongsun Zan was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately sent envoys to Yuan Shu to boast: General Yuan is willing to deal with Yuan Shao's son, and Zan is willing to be the vanguard.

At the same time, Lu Bu, the defeated general, was willing to attack Yanzhou again. Yuan Shu gave him [-] troops and asked him to return to Chenliu to help Zhang Miao resist Cao Cao.

Cao Cao took the opportunity to besiege Chenliu, and Zhang Miao brothers asked for help everywhere, HN Zheng Jun, Dongjun Zang Hong, Xuzhou Tao Qian, Taishan Zang Ba, Yuzhou Guo Gong.

Zheng Jun was appointed as the prefect of HN. His main task was to recruit exiles, restore the vitality of HN, and the most important thing was to rebuild Luoyang, the eastern capital.

The Battle of Yanzhou and the Battle of Hanoi caused HN to become populated again. Zheng Jun did not want HN to be subjected to war again, so he sent Xu Rong to send armors to Chenliu, but he did not send troops.

Xuzhou Tao Qian heard that Cao Cao became seriously ill after he became powerful again, and he was in danger of dying. Therefore, there were no reinforcements in Xuzhou.

Wang Kuang had a rift with Zang Ba earlier, and the two were in conflict, so Zang Ba naturally did not dare to leave Taishan's lair lightly.

On the contrary, Zang Hong, the prefect of Dongjun, asked Yuan Shao to send troops to help him. Now Yuan Shao is facing the two powerful enemies Zhang Fei in Hanoi and Gongsun Zan in Youzhou. Zhang Miao in danger, not to mention Cao Cao is Yuan Shao's loyal younger brother?

Zhang Miao attacked Yanzhou, and Yuan Shao was very dissatisfied. If Yuan Shao was thinking of mediating the battle between the two, or saving Zhang Miao, it would be impossible. Who asked Zhang Miao to seek refuge with Yuan Shu?

Zhang Miao has been in Chenliu for several years, and he has won the hearts of Chenliu's gentry. Coupled with the great help of the Cai, Xu, and Wang families in Chenliu, Cao Cao stagnated when he entered Yongqiu.

Yuan Shu's general Liu Xiang sat and watched Cao Cao attack the city, and waited for Cao Cao's troops to attack when they were exhausted.

Cao Cao's military was sophisticated, and Cheng Yu, Mao Jie, Dong Zhao and other advisers had sharp eyesight, so Cao Cao took advantage of the situation and was defeated after Lu Bu came. Liu Xiang didn't know what to do, so he took the opportunity to attack.

As a result, Lv Bu's elite broke away from the army, and was attacked by Cao Cao's ambush soldiers Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Le Jin, Li Gan, etc. Lv Bu's elite was defeated.

Lü Bu's elite was defeated, and the [-] soldiers Yuan Shu gave him, most of whom were young recruits, were immediately besieged and defeated by Cao Cao's army.

After Cao Cao defeated Lu Bu, he turned around and attacked Liu Xiang.

Liu Xiang didn't know that Lv Bu had been defeated, so he fought Cao Cao in a battle of attrition. He thought that Lv Bu's bravery could break the siege, but he didn't know that Lv Bu fled back to Yongqiu, and Liu Xiang was finally defeated by Cao Cao.

At this point, the Battle of Kuangting came to an end, and Cao Cao besieged Yongqiu again, but this time he did not attack. While mobilizing food and grass, he appeased the hearts of Chenliu's nobles. For a while, most of Chenliu County was owned by Cao Cao.

In Yongqiu, because Lu Bu's army was defeated in Yongqiu, Yongqiu's grain and grass were consumed sharply. In order to get the army food, Lu Bu plundered the gentry in the city.

This caused the gentry in Yongqiu city to be furious, even if Zhang Miao brothers explained in every possible way, it was useless. The gentry of Yongqiu and Lv Bu had two hearts.

That night when Lu Bu led his troops out, Zhang Miao felt sorry for the people of Yongqiu and killed himself in the city. His younger brother Zhang Chao led his cronies to escort Zhang Miao's family out of Yongqiu.

After Lu Bu left Yongqiu, he didn't want to go to Yuan Shu's command again, and he didn't want to face the generals of the Lucheng Army again, so he went to Xuzhou on Chen Gong's suggestion.

At that time, Tao Qian in Xuzhou was critically ill. Hearing that Lv Bu's visit was like a treasure, he immediately decided to appoint him as the prefect of Xiapi, and soon gave up the position of governor of Xuzhou to Lv Bu.

Lu Bu was overjoyed, and immediately became the governor of Xuzhou.
