Chapter 304 Three-Party War
In July of the sixth year of Jian'an, Cao Jun lost Yanzhou and Huainan one after another.Cao Ang's 13 troops had to retreat in Runan.

At this time, the morale of Cao's army was low, and it seemed that he was unable to fight anymore, and Zhuge Liang was not in a hurry to attack, but instead fought with Cao Ang, because Zhuge Liang knew that the longer the time dragged, the lower the morale of Cao's army.

At this moment, the paralyzed Cao Cao appeared in Runan!
Cao Cao's headache has troubled Cao Cao for many years, and after the stroke, it endangered Cao Cao's life.

After Cao Cao was sent to Beihai, Hua Tuo proposed that if he wanted Cao Cao to recover, he had to open Cao Cao's head and release the blood in Cao Cao's head!
These words shocked everyone, except of course Zhang De.In the eyes of everyone, how could that person survive if his head was split open!Even Cao Cao himself felt that Hua Tuo intended to murder him!
But in just a few months, the situation took a turn for the worse. Cao Jun lost Sili and Bingzhou, and Zhuge Liang's army even sent troops to Xuchang. At this time, Cao Cao finally couldn't sit still. His three sons are absolutely unable to keep their inheritance!
In this case, Cao Cao compromised, and Cao Cao felt that it was a gamble!So at the beginning of the fifth year of Jianxing, Hua Tuo performed the operation on Cao Cao!

The so-called one hundred days of injury, let alone such a major operation, Cao Cao has been recuperating his body for more than a year since the operation.

In fact, according to Hua Tuo, Cao Cao should cultivate for a few more months, but unfortunately the situation is stronger than others. Now that Cao Jun has reached the brink of defeat, Cao Cao has no choice but to stand up!
Cao Cao's return boosted the morale of Cao's army, and Cao Cao also started a counterattack against Zhuge Liang.For a while, the situation in Runan became delicate again.

But at this time, Chen Liu's Liu Chan began to become a little restless.

For more than a year, Liu Chan has been full of spirits, especially after the surprise attack on Hulao Pass and the capture of Yanzhou, Liu Chan has become a little defiant.

Jia Xu also discovered this problem, and advised Liu Chan more, but unfortunately Liu Chan did not listen to Jia Xu's advice at all.

Finally, in October of the sixth year of Jianxing, Liu Chan sent troops to Chenliu, rushed to Runan, and attacked Cao Cao.A three-sided battle has finally begun!

At the same time, Zhang De also encountered trouble.

When Zhang De attacked Liaodong, Gongsundu fled to the northeast, defeated Fuyu, and established the Beihai Kingdom, but every time, Gongsundu died of illness!
After Gongsundu died of illness, Gongsundu's son Gongsunkang inherited Gongsundu's seat and the entire Northeast.

Gongsun Kang is not as powerful as Gongsun Du, but he is not an idler. Over the past few years, Gongsun Kang has been steadily in front of his "Northeast King", and at the same time has continued to grow and develop. Now he has a lot of power!
Maybe it was because the weather in the Northeast was too cold. In the sixth year of Jianxing, Gongsun Kang died of illness!

At this time, Gongsun Kang was not very old, he was in his prime, so Gongsun Kang's death was somewhat bizarre.

Gongsun Kang had a son named Gongsun Yuan, but when Gongsun Kang died, Gongsun Yuan was still young, so Gongsun Kang's younger brother, Gongsun Gong, robbed Ben of the throne that should belong to Gongsun Yuan, and called himself the King of Beihai!

Gongsun Gong is no better than his elder brother Gongsun Kang, he is an ambitious person, so after Gongsun Gong ascended the throne, he set his sights on Zhang De in the south!So in August of the sixth year of Jianxing, Gongsun Gong led 20 troops and invaded Liaodong!
Lu Su, the governor of the Northern Territory, responded quickly. After hearing that Gongsun Gong had attacked Liaodong, he immediately recruited [-] soldiers from Xianbei, Karasuma and other tribes to resist Gongsun Gong.

The level of Lu Su's defense can be counted among the entire Three Kingdoms. In addition, Lu Su has been in the Northern Territory for many years and is quite popular, so Lu Su only needs 5 horses, making it difficult for Gongsun Gong's 20 troops to move forward!
But after all, Gongsun Gong had an army of 20, and with Lu Su's 5 troops alone, Zhang De still had no idea. As a last resort, Zhang De had to mobilize an army of [-] to go north to assist Lu Su. Take out more troops and send them elsewhere, so Zhang De can only be a spectator in this three-way war in Runan!

After Liu Chan's troops left Chenliu, he was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he stationed troops in Chenjun, as if he would wait until Zhuge Liang and Cao Cao were both injured before he went to take advantage of it!
But Zhuge Liang and Cao Cao are not fools, they can see that Liu Chan is here to take advantage.So neither of the two parties dared to be born rashly, for fear that Liu Chan's fisherman would benefit.

For a moment, the battle situation became stalemate, Yingchuan, Runan and Chenjun became the focus!
In order to destroy Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang could be said to persuade Jingzhou this time. A total of 15 troops were dispatched, and Liu Chan's army added up to nearly 20. As for Cao Cao, there are 13 troops in Runan alone. If Hefei is added Zhang Liao's department, I am afraid that Cao Cao also has an army of 50 to [-].The combined forces of the three parties are more than [-]. With such a scale, I am afraid that even the Battle of Guandu is incomparable.

When Zhang De knew the size of the three parties this time, he was secretly surprised!Most of the troops that Cao Cao has managed over the years are now concentrated here. Liu Chan has gathered troops from the three prefectures of Yong, Liang, and Yi. It is normal for them to have so many troops.

But Zhuge Liang didn't have so many horses in his hands.But a few days ago, Zhuge Liang captured Nanyang. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Nanyang was the richest and most populous place in the Han Dynasty. A county can surpass a state, so Zhuge Liang was able to piece together an army of 15.

From the perspective of the military strength of the three parties, Zhuge Liang is similar to Cao Cao, while Liu Chan's military strength is the most dominant.But Zhang Liao in Hefei still has tens of thousands of troops in his hands.If these tens of thousands of troops join the battlefield, Cao Cao's military strength will be greatly improved.

Now Zhang Liao is counterattacking Shouchun. Once Liao Hua can't defend Shouchun, Zhang Liao's army can go north to Runan to support Cao Cao. At that time, Zhuge Liang is probably the weakest. So according to the current situation, Zhuge Liang can't wait!
And Liu Chan's life is not easy. Liu Chan has an army of 20, eats, drinks, and spreads. All the food and grass are transported from Yizhou and Yongzhou. Yanzhou has just been occupied by Liu Chan and cannot be replenished. There are also many aristocratic clans in the Li family, so it is not easy for Liu Chan to compete for food. As for Bingzhou, there is not much food produced in the first place.

It is easier to talk about transporting grain from Yongzhou, but it is much more troublesome to transport grain from Yizhou.The road to Shu is difficult. Although Yizhou is a land of grain production, it is very laborious to transport the grain. This puts a lot of pressure on Liu Chan's supply line. It is okay in a short period of time. Once the time is long, the pressure on Liu Chan's logistics will be great. Gradually increase!
In this case, the three-party battle is imminent!
