The three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang sworn sworn sworn orders to Huang Tianhou.
"In the blue sky, I, Liu Xuande, would like to become brothers with different surnames from Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide. We do not wish to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but we wish to die in the same year, the same month and the same day!"
"In the blue sky, I, Guan Yunchang, would like to marry Liu Xuande and Zhang Yide as brothers with different surnames. We will share blessings and share hardships!"
"The sky is high, so am I!"
The three of them lit three sticks of incense and bowed deeply.
After kowtowing three times, the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang got up.
"How old am I to you two? Let me be the eldest brother." Liu Bei said.
"Well, I'm older than Yide, so I'll be the second child." Guan Yu said, twirling his beard.
"Second brother and third brother!"
"Big brother and third brother!"
"Big brother and second brother!"
The three of them shouted to each other.
"Second brother and third brother, the three of us will definitely make a breakthrough!" Liu Bei said confidently.
"Indeed, but where should we start now?" Guan Yu asked.
"Let me tell you, let's go fight the Yellow Turban Army!" Zhang Fei came up with an idea.
"No, the enemy troops are too numerous to defeat." Liu Bei shook his head, thought for a moment, and suddenly said:
"Go to Xuzhou. Go to Xuzhou to help Tao Qian stop the Yellow Turban Army."
"Xuzhou, that's fine." Guan Yu nodded and analyzed: "We are in urgent need of territory and soldiers now. If we can defeat the Yellow Turban Army, we can gain prestige and recruit some people."
After some discussion, the three decided to go to Xuzhou.
…
Yanzhou, Chenliu County.
Cao Cao relied on the power of the Xiahou family to successfully occupy Chenliu County.
All the bandits and bandits in Yanzhou were recruited by him as soldiers, with Dianwei as his guard.
"Lord, Chenliu County has been captured. Next, it is time to capture Jiyin County and Shanyang County." Xiahou Dun stepped forward and said.
"Liu Dai and Qiao Mao are not easy to deal with. One of them is the governor appointed by the emperor, and the other is the prefect. They are not easy to deal with." Cao Cao shook his head.
He was mainly concerned about the imperial court.
Otherwise, he would have sent troops long ago.
"My lord, the traitor in the imperial court is now in power and the royal family is weak. If we don't take over the entire Yanzhou, we may not be able to deal with the traitor Dong Zhuo." Xiahou Dun continued.
Cao Cao did not speak, but looked at Xun Yu.
"Xun Yu, what do you think?"
"My lord, are you afraid that you will be unknown when you leave the army?" Xun Yu said with a smile.
"The one who knows me is Xun Yu." Cao Cao nodded and said.
"Actually, it's very simple for my lord to make his disciples famous." Xun Yu stepped forward and gave Cao Cao an idea.
"Qiao Mao is very ambitious. If you charge him with rebellion, you can send troops."
After hearing this, Cao Cao nodded lightly and then asked: "What about Liu Dai? Liu Dai is not only the governor, but also a member of the royal family."
Xun Yu smiled and said: "Liu Dai is a fatuous and incompetent person. I can ask him to hand over Yanzhou voluntarily and hand over the position of governor to you."
"When the time comes, I will write to the court and ask for the position of state pastor, and it will be a matter of course."
When Cao Cao heard this, he shook his head and said, "I have assassinated that old thief Dong Zhuo. I'm afraid he won't agree easily."
Xun Yu smiled and said:
"It doesn't matter, my lord. We captured Dongjun and forced Liu Dai to give up the throne. We have already become a state pastor. If he doesn't give it, we are also a state pastor, and we can completely separate from the imperial court."
"Dong Zhuo is not a fool. He will definitely give us a name and let us continue to be under the control of the imperial court."
"After all, he gave us a name, and we can make offerings to the court, but there is nothing."
Cao Cao nodded when he heard this and ordered: "Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ang, come out!"
"Here!" The two brothers Xiahou Dun and Cao Ang stood up.
"You will lead ten thousand troops to attack Dongjun."
"Yes!" the three of them responded.
"Xun Yu."
"exist!"
"Take two boys and go to Jiyin County to find Liu Dai." Cao Cao ordered.
"No!" Xun Yu responded with cupped hands.
After giving the instructions, Cao Cao closed his eyes and rested his mind. He couldn't help but think of Zhou Sheng who had saved him in the past.
…
Jiangdong.
Since Sun Ce's coming-of-age ceremony, the Sun family has risen.
Sun Jian raised 50,000 sailors and relied on 50,000 sailors to become the overlord of Jiangdong.
All the major families in Jiangdong have dissenters.
Sun Dong also became the local emperor of Jiangdong, and Sun Jian had the final say in the entire Jiangdong.
Moreover, Sun Jian continued to recruit soldiers and capable people to expand his military strength, and his territory in Jiangdong continued to expand.
In Sun's house, Sun Jian and his son were sitting together and talking.
"Cer, it's difficult for Jiangdong to develop inland, so my father plans to send you to the sea." Sun Jian said.
It would be very difficult for him to continue to develop inward in Jiangdong, and he would be discovered by the imperial court.
The court still has Dong Zhuo in charge. Once he sends troops, it will disrupt Sun Jian's arrangement.
"Okay." Sun Ce agreed immediately.
Today, he wears armor, carries a sword at his waist, and holds a spear. He has a rather overbearing demeanor.
Moreover, he is in charge of the Jiangdong Navy.
If you are old and weak, you will have unified troops to fight, and you can look forward to the future.
"When you go overseas this time, my father sent Zhou Yu to accompany you." Sun Jian said.
"But Zhou Yu is younger than a child." Sun Ce said.
"Zhou Yu is a bit young, but he is very resourceful. If he learns more from you, he can become your right-hand man in the future." Sun Jian said with a smile.
"Okay." Sun Ce didn't say anything.
"Cer, my father is helping you train your team. The soldiers and horses you lead out will be your own soldiers and horses in the future." Sun Jian said seriously.
"Father, the child is still young, I'm afraid..."
"Cer, your father and I are called Jiangdong Tigers. Tigers are used to conquer the world, but you, the little overlord, are the ones who protect the world!"
"Now the Han Dynasty is in danger. Whether we can become king or emperor depends on you and me, father and son." Sun Jian said seriously.
"But... there is also Brother Quan..."
"Quan'er is still young, and my father intends for him to inherit another identity." Sun Jian said calmly.
He planned to bring down the country and give it to his son.
As for Sun Quan, he planned to make Sun Quan the guardian of the tomb of the water line.
Sun Ce didn't say anything after hearing this.
"Troubled times are about to arise. You and I, father and son, will have a place in these troubled times!" Sun Jian patted Sun Ce on the shoulder, his tone sonorous and powerful.
"Yes!" Sun Ce responded heavily.
…
Giant deer.
The three Zhang Jiao brothers stood in the martial arts arena and mobilized an army of 300,000 troops.
"Soldiers! Now we have no food, are you afraid?" Zhang Jiao shouted loudly.
"Afraid!"
"Since you are afraid, then bring Xuzhou down for me!"
"Xuzhou has a lot of food and beautiful people, so you can get whatever you want!" Zhang Jiao said again.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" the 300,000 Yellow Turban Army shouted, holding their weapons high.
"Go now, eat white meat when you encounter people, attack the city when you encounter it!" Zhang Jiao said loudly.
It was Tianzun's decision to attack Xuzhou.
Xuzhou is relatively rich and is located near Yanzhou.
After Xuzhou is defeated, we can take advantage of the situation to attack Yanzhou.
Moreover, if nothing else happens, the three Liu Bei brothers will also go to Xuzhou to help.
As long as they are killed, the Three Kingdoms will be gone.
"Set off!"
Zhang Jiao shouted loudly, and led 300,000 Yellow Turban troops to set off in a mighty manner and kill Xuzhou.
