Lu Dynasty

Chapter 541 Rebellion
The losses caused by the storm were indeed huge. Cao Cai lost nearly a thousand people in one day of the storm.This does not include the lightly and seriously injured!Lao Cao squeezed his eyebrows and nose together anxiously. Now the Hulao Pass has become tasteless.Just like what Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei in Longzhong, wait for the situation to change.What are times changing?Nothing more than the enemy is in danger!Right now is my greatest crisis. If I miss this opportunity, Cao Ke can't guarantee when I will be in danger again!
Cao was blocked at Hulao Pass, Yuan Shao was blocked at Quyang, Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju were still at Yanmen Pass to clean up the remnants of the soldiers, and Si Bingliang Sanzhou actually found a little peace amidst the siege of the crowd!But this peace was soon broken. News came from Jimin Restaurant in Jingzhou that Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou, was seriously ill, and his son Liu Cong took the position of shepherd of the state temporarily!Historically, Liu Biao died of illness in the 13th year of Jian'an. Although Liu Biao died of illness, how he died is unknown.Just like the death of Liu Qi in history, everyone said that he died of drunkenness, and history also recorded it like this, but did he really die of drunkenness?Now that Liu Cong is temporarily serving as the state shepherd, I suspect that Liu Biao has already been killed!Unfortunately, apart from this news, there is no other news from Jingzhou, including Liu Bei and Liu Qi's reaction to this matter!
Jia Xu's intelligence and analysis of the intelligence are also being sent in non-stop. In fact, no matter which state my agent of Jimin Restaurant is in, there are two lines: one bright and one dark.Even if the bright line is hit by someone, there should be news in the dark line.Could it be that Liu Bei's people even hit my dark lines?This possibility is not hate big!But it would be even more illogical to say that Liu Bei and Liu Qi knew that Liu Cong was regent but did not respond.

In fact, Liu Biao's life and death are no longer important. If Liu Biao is not dead, he will suppress Liu Bei and prevent him from finding trouble for me.Even if Liu Biao is dead, Liu Bei is just a clown.Based on the fact that Liu Bei's soldiers are less than a thousand, and will not be able to defeat the forces of Wei Yan, Sha Moke, and Chen Dao, is it possible that he still wants to capture Wancheng, which is guarded by Guan Ping and Zhou Cang?Even if Liu Bei really has tens of thousands of troops, it's a big deal, let Huang Zhong from Wuguan go to support Wancheng, it's very close anyway!
The weather is getting colder and colder, slowly from late autumn to early winter. In the cold mornings in the north, the ground is often covered with frost.If there is water, a thin layer of ice will form on the ground.Bingzhou, a large state that was often invaded by foreigners, has now fallen under the iron heel of foreigners.What is different from the past is that after the fortified walls and clearing the fields, the entire Bingzhou can be said to have not left a single grass to foreigners.Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju, who originally hoped to make a fortune, looked at the devastated Bingzhou, and they began to worry about food!If this continues, the cattle and sheep they bring will definitely not be enough to eat.Yuan Shao was still ignorant of the situation of the aliens. He even forgot that the aliens who had no food would turn into hungry tigers and wolves and devour all living things they could see.As long as it is for food, foreign men can even cook their wives and children, how can they care about mere friendly troops?
Helpless, Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju finally gathered their troops and overcame their fear of Lu Bu and me, and rushed to Quyang to join Yuan Shao!They joined Yuan Shao for another purpose, which was to ask for food!Yuan Shao has always been admonishing Qiu Liju and Hu Chuquan as the leader of the alliance. Now that these two ask him for food, he is really embarrassed not to give it!But even if Yuan Shao is willing to give, there must be food.He didn't have enough food to feed his army of millions, so he could only squeeze a little bit out of his teeth for Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju.But Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju also brought 80 million people, and that little food was just a drop in the bucket.Qiu Liju and Hu Chuquan discussed secretly, and they decided to let the old, weak and remnant soldiers under their command disperse to grab food!In fact, this is also a common trick used by foreigners, but this time they are fighting on a large scale, and they didn't do it because they thought they could defeat me quickly.

Without informing Yuan Shao, Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju divided their troops into many small teams. The larger team had 200 people, and the smaller one had a hundred people. Then they were scattered around Bingzhou to collect food.As for how to collect, I think everyone knows.Huchuquan and Qiu Liju thought beautifully, but unfortunately Bingzhou has been cleared by me for a long time, and only the rear of Jinyang has people.The army of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in Quyang, Jinyang is the base camp of our army, with Zhao Yun in charge, the two lines of defense cannot be broken by the small troops of Huchuquan and Qiu Liju.Seeing that it is getting colder every day, seeing that their cattle and sheep are getting less and less every day, and the food provided by Yuan Shao is not enough to fit their teeth, Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju are angry from the heart, since Yuan Shao does not give them For their food, they will get it by themselves!Hu Chuquan and Qiu Liju secretly dispersed a small number of troops to Jizhou to rob the people of Jizhou.

The people of Jizhou were plundered by foreigners, so the local officials in Jizhou would naturally not ignore it, and they immediately reported the matter to Yuan Shao.At first, Yuan Shao didn't care about the report from the magistrate.In Yuan Shao's eyes, the common people are untouchables, and now he is uniting with foreign tribes to deal with me, how could he offend Huchuquan and Qiu Liju for some untouchables?But after a long time, when the foreigners saw that Yuan Shao did not respond to their looting of Jizhou, they became rampant.Originally, it was only a small group of troops who went to Jizhou to plunder, but now almost most of the foreigners have gone to Jizhou, and there is smoke everywhere in Jizhou.But Yuan Shao was still not in a hurry.In his opinion, as long as he wins against me, he can easily get both food and people!So Yuan Shao ordered the magistrates to suppress those who resisted the foreign race. Yuan Shao's order finally annoyed a person!

It was none other than Yuan Shao who was annoyed by him. This person was none other than Zhang Yan, also known as Chu Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain bandit.He is vigorous and strong, and he is known as "Flying Swallow".Although he was a thief when he was young, it was forced by current events, and he still has a chivalrous heart.Originally, he surrendered to Yuan Shao in order to keep his yellow turban thieves from being displaced and lead a precarious life, but unfortunately things went against his wishes, Yuan Shao never fed his yellow turban thieves enough!Zhang Yan is from Zhending, Changshan, Jizhou, and Zhao Yun is from the same village, but I don't know if he and Zhao Yun know each other.Jizhou, like Bingzhou and Youzhou, is a large state close to foreigners, and is often beaten by foreigners. As a native of Jizhou, Zhang Yan hated foreigners even more.Yuan Shao is already very dissatisfied with colluding with foreigners to deal with me, and now Yuan Shao actually allows foreigners to plunder the people of Jizhou!It is tolerable, what is unbearable!An angry Zhang Yan rebelled with more than [-] yellow scarf thieves under his command!
