Just when Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Liu Bei and others were actively preparing for war, they planned to rely on the natural chasm of the Yangtze River to block Liu Feng from the north.
On the north bank of the Yangtze River, Lu Su in Jiangling City also received the news.
"Haha, the East is settled."
In Jiangling City, in the lobby of Zhennan General's Mansion, Lu Su let out a laugh as a document was placed on his desk.
Immediately, Lu Su walked out of the hall, came outside, and looked up to the east.[
At this moment, the sun was still in the east. Lu Su looked directly at the scorching sun. The strong light made him squint his eyes.
Lu Su also recalled that year in his mind.
Back then, Liu Feng was only eight years old, and he was only escorted by Zhao Yun. The two of them arrived in Yangzhou together, and brought him to this new wilderness with half coercion and half seduction.
At that time, his heart was not particularly submissive. Later, Zhao Yun showed the strength of an enemy of ten thousand people. Liu Feng's edge was also revealed for the first time.
This was what he felt in his heart, and he sincerely began to make suggestions for Liu Feng, until today.
"But at that time, I only expected that the general could attack and kill Liu Biao, sit in Jingzhou, proclaim himself emperor in the south, and rule across the river with Cao Cao. Unexpectedly, the general was so powerful. As for today, he actually conquered that
Kill them all and unite the Central Plains."
Thinking back to those days, Lu Su couldn't help but murmured to himself.
"Call to the whole army, the general defeated Cao Cao's thieves in Xiapi. Cao Cao has been killed. Now, the Central Plains are unified, only Jiangnan is the only one."
Immediately, Lu Su shouted to the soldiers at the entrance of the hall.
This news is not top secret, but the people below do not know it. The soldiers outside the hall suddenly heard the news and couldn't help but be stunned.
But immediately after, a look of ecstasy appeared, and one of them agreed and immediately went down to deliver the message.
"promise."
Lu Su smiled slightly when he saw this, thinking in his mind that the general among Jingchu was the most respected in the world.
That's right, the soldiers beside Lu Su are all descendants of Jingchu, and their hearts are devoted to Liu Feng. Naturally, he was overjoyed when he suddenly heard the news.
And it's not just the military.
The news will spread soon, and then the people of Jingchu, no, the people of the world, will be rejoicing.
Of course, it would be better if Sun Ce was destroyed. This would be the unification of the Han Dynasty and peace for all times.
Thinking about it, the smile on Lu Su's face became stronger and stronger, and then he turned to the south, looking across the city, as if he was focused on Sun Ce and Zhou Yu in the police.
"You two are also heroes. Why don't you examine the situation early and return to the Han Dynasty?" [
Lu Su thought secretly.
Following Lu Su's order, the whole of Jingchu was filled with joy.
But it was said that after Liu Feng wiped out Cao Wei and occupied Xuzhou, more than ten days had passed in the blink of an eye.
Don't underestimate this short period of more than ten days, but the whole of Xuzhou has undergone earth-shaking changes.
First of all, the people of Xuzhou have accepted the rule of the Han Dynasty. No, they do not accept it, they accept it happily.
Because Cao Cao's previous rule was too harsh.
Heavy taxation has led to poor morale among the people.
Now when the Han Dynasty arrived, they immediately leveled the tax burden in Xuzhou, making it the same as the tax burden in places like Jingzhou and Yizhou.
The Han Dynasty was powerful and tolerant. One can imagine how light the tax burden in Jingzhou and Yizhou was.
In these two states, the people are happy and granaries are everywhere. Compared with the previous tax burden in Xuzhou, it is simply exciting.
Naturally, the people of Xuzhou surrendered happily.
Next, there is Xiapi City.
Although Liu Feng ordered the Xiapi City to be cleaned up more than ten days ago, the odor and mess caused by two consecutive months of fighting were really difficult to clear away at once.
Now what?
Today, Xiapi City is very clean. There are no blood stains on the ground or on the city walls, and there is no smell.
Shops on both sides of the street have also reopened.
Although the streets are not busy with traffic, they are still somewhat popular, and everything exudes vitality.
The final change was the army outside the city.
In February of the fighting, the Han army suffered heavy losses. It had 140,000 to 50,000 elite soldiers, but in the end the number was less than 100,000. It was really tragic.
At that time, the army's morale was very high due to the great victory, but it was undeniable that it was actually a little thinner.
In addition to the sparse Han army, Cao Wei also had 80,000 or 90,000 prisoners of war. These prisoners were not necessarily left behind from the battle in Xuzhou, but also from the pursuit battle in Qingzhou.
Anyway, there are many, such a large number of captives. They are not only a burden, but also a source of disaster.[
It would be tragic if the prisoners were "chaotic".
But what about now? The general in charge of the Han Army's 31st Army, and Liu Feng's left and right military advisors Liu Ye and Jia Xu worked together.
This huge number of prisoners were organized one by one.
Now, the number of the 31st and 31st armies of the Han Army has finally reached 186,000. It is in line with the convention of 6,000 elite soldiers for each army.
There are 186,000 elite soldiers. You don’t need to look at these elite soldiers. Just think about them and you will feel that they are troublesome. They are so powerful and so powerful.
At this moment, most of the 186,000 elite soldiers were stationed outside the city. There was a large camp stretching for more than ten miles to the west of the city.
There are many tents in the camp, soldiers are like clouds, and flags are flying. It is really powerful.
The people surrendered, the city was tidy, the captives were placed, and the army expanded.
These are the changes in Xiapi City.
This change only occurred in a short period of more than ten days.
The changes in the entire Xiapi City are still continuing. Today, three groups of elite soldiers came from the south of Xuzhou and arrived at Xiapi.
With the addition of these three lines of elite soldiers, the Han army's strength can reach as many as 200,000. Thirty-four lines, but 240,000 elite soldiers.
These are the elite soldiers of Jushou.
On this day, the sun was high in the sky. The gate to the south of Xiapi City was open, and Liu Ye, the king's general and military advisor, was waiting outside the city gate facing the red sun.
"Da da da."
Not long after, footsteps were heard. Then, an army that covered the sky and the sun appeared in Liu Ye's sight.
"Da da da."
After a while, the army stopped. Dozens of fast horses jumped out of the formation and rushed towards Liu Ye.
"Mr. Yu." Liu Ye saw one of them from a distance, it was Ju Shou, so he smiled and raised his fist in salute.
"Zi Yang." Jushou laughed loudly, dismounted and returned the courtesy.
Both of them were under Liu Feng's command. They were talents recruited by Liu Feng when his power was declining, and they knew each other.
"Hahaha."
The old friends were naturally happy to meet each other, and they couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Immediately, the two of them started chatting at the gate of the city. Until Liu Ye noticed the change in time, he smiled and said: "We only care about our own happiness, I am afraid that the general is impatient to wait."
Immediately, Liu Ye said to Jushou: "Let's go and see the general."
"Wait a moment while I place the soldiers." Jushou said.
Immediately, Jushou went down to place the soldiers, and then went to see Liu Feng with Liu Ye.
Jushou and Liu Feng hadn't seen each other for a while. On the way, Jushou couldn't help but feel a little excited.
