Dongjun, Puyang City.

When Liu Bei returned to Puyang, he only brought more than 4,000 remaining soldiers with him.

Moreover, more than half of the more than 4,000 troops and horses were injured.

The expedition to Xuzhou lasted for such a long time, but not only did it return without success, but it also suffered a loss of troops and generals.

Fortunately, with Liu Bei's withdrawal, Xuzhou became a battlefield for Yuan Shu and Sun Jian.

Xuzhou is a big piece of meat, and Sun Jian is not willing to let go.

And Yuan Shu thought he was the chosen one, and it was even less possible for him to give up Xuzhou to Sun Jian.

Therefore, a conflict between Yuan Shu and Sun Jian is inevitable.

Of course, Liu Bei now has no time to take care of Yuan Shu and Sun Jian.

He needs to focus on the governance of East County.

When Liu Bei participated in the Xuzhou War, he said it politely because he was a little broad-minded, but he said it harshly because he was overestimating his own capabilities.

In order to compete for Xuzhou, Liu Bei went on a military expedition and recruited a large number of young men from Dongjun.

During the farming season, you can imagine how poor the harvest will be if there are not enough young people for farming.

Moreover, after so many Dongjun's children died, could Liu Bei still get Dongjun's support?

Chen Gong is Liu Bei's counselor, but he is not satisfied with some of Liu Bei's actions.

Although Liu Bei was good at both civil and military affairs and was famous for his benevolence and righteousness, over time, Chen Deng also discovered that Liu Bei was not as 'perfect' as he imagined.

Compared with Cao Cao, Liu Bei lacked some courage and decisiveness in certain matters.

A woman's kindness, or her indecisiveness?

Chen Gong doesn't like to judge either, but as a master, he must be decisive at critical moments.

For example, when Tao Qian gave way to Xuzhou, Liu Bei should have done his duty and not deliberately shied away.

If we can obtain the governance power of Xuzhou earlier, we can coordinate Xuzhou earlier, and we will not be defeated in Xuzhou and flee back to Dongjun in embarrassment.

"Public platform. Liu

Bei said to Chen Gong.

Chen Gong replied:"My lord, what do you want me to do?" Liu

Bei asked Chen Gong:"Bo Gui spread the word to the world and invited princes from all over the world to help fight in Youzhou. What should we do about this?""

Zhou Cheng's four armies attacked Youzhou.

Xu Huang captured Xuantu County, passed through Xuantu County, and invaded Liaodong County.

Liaodong County and Youbeiping County were Gongsun Zan's base and the place where grain was stored.

Liaodong County was attacked Entering the country, it had a great influence on Gongsun Zan.

Zhang He killed Gongsun Yue, Zhao Yun defeated Yan Gang, Zhang Liao pressed forward step by step, and another Yellow Turban Uprising broke out in Qingzhou.

There were wars everywhere in Qingzhou and Youzhou.

Gongsun Zan was now isolated and helpless. , in urgent need of rescue.

Therefore, Gongsun Zan had no choice but to spread the word to all the states and invite the princes of the world to help.

Naturally, the friendship between Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan needs no elaboration.

It can be said that without the help of Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei would not be where he is today.

Therefore, Liu Bei He planned to send troops to help Gongsun Zan.

Chen Gong already knew Liu Bei and knew that he was too focused on the four words of 'loyalty, trust, benevolence and righteousness'.

Chen Gong said:"My lord, Dongjun is tired and the defense of the city is not enough, so he is unable to go north."

Chen Gong is seeking truth from facts.

At present, a maximum of 20,000 troops and horses can be assembled in Dongjun.

However, if all 20,000 troops and horses are heading north, will there be any troops to guard Dongjun?

Not to mention the invasion of other princes, even the Thieves Mountain The bandits couldn't handle it.

Guan Yu stroked his beard and said,"Brother, Gongsun Bogui has been kind to us. Now he is in trouble and we can't just sit back and watch."

The word"righteousness" comes first.

What Guan Yu said at this time made Chen Gong frown.

If he had already made a decision, he would just send troops northward. Why discuss it again?

Liu Bei saw Chen Gong's expression.

Liu Bei also knew that Dong Dong The current situation in the county is indeed not suitable for sending troops.

However, if Liu Bei does not send troops, how will the people of the world regard him?

At that time, he will bear the reputation of being unkind and unjust.

For Liu Bei, reputation is very important and cannot be taken lightly. Abandon it.

Later, Liu Bei said to Chen Gong:"Gongtai, I want to unite with Meng Zhuo, Meng Gao, and Yuncheng to send troops to Youzhou. If the Zhou thieves gain Youzhou, they will attack Qingzhou. If Qingzhou is lost, Yanzhou will be in danger."

Liu Bei's words make sense.

Without Gongsun Zan to contain Zhou Cheng in the north, Zhou Cheng would inevitably go south after unifying the north, and Yanzhou would bear the brunt.

Thinking of this, Chen Gong said:"My lord, I am willing to lobby Meng Zhuo and Meng Gao. , Yuncheng."

Nowadays, the main forces in Yanzhou include Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao and Liu Bei, while there is also Bao Xin in Qingzhou. The combined power of the four families may be helpful to the war situation in Youzhou.

Afterwards, Chen Gong left Puyang and went to Chen Gong first. He stayed to visit Zhang Miao.

At the same time, Chen Gong also wrote to Bao Xin.

Bao Xin and Chen Gong were good friends, and Chen Gong believed that Bao Xin was a man who understood righteousness.

Although Gongsun Zan did something to kill Liu Yu, he allowed Zhou The consequences of Cheng's march south to the Central Plains were unimaginable. In

February 198 AD,

Liu Bei, Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao, and Bao Xin reached an alliance agreement and established an alliance to fight against thieves.

The four families combined 30,000 troops and marched north to Youzhou via Qingzhou. Support Gongsun Zan.

Liu Bei is the best at fighting and is elected as the leader of the alliance.

Liu Bei takes Guan Yu and Zhang Fei as the vanguard, while Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao are responsible for the transportation of military supplies.
