In May of the second hundred AD, Zhou Cheng took Xu Huang as his general and went to Xuzhou to mediate the war.

As for the Dang bandit camp, Zhou Cheng did not move it and remained in the land of Sanhan.

At the same time, Zhou Cheng sent Guan Hai to temporarily lead the bandit camp to hunt down the remaining Goguryeo people.

After Xu Huang arrived in Changyi, he set off from Changyi to Xuzhou.

When he learned that Xu Huang had entered Xuzhou, Chen Deng thought that Zhou Cheng was going to capture Xuzhou.

However, Chen Gui was more calm.

There are only five thousand riders, and they are not here to occupy territory.

So Chen Gui wrote to Li Ru, and Chen Deng personally delivered the letter.

……

After Yuan Shu learned that Zhou Cheng was going south, he was first surprised, and then hurriedly mobilized his troops.

When the wealthy families in the counties and counties of Yuzhou and Yangzhou heard that Zhou's army was marching south, they had the idea of ​​continuing their march southward or moving westward.

The wealthy families in the world fear Zhou Cheng as much as they fear tigers and wolves.

However, Zhou Cheng did only send 5,000 cavalry southward and did not mobilize other troops.

This made Yuan Shu temporarily relieved.

The end of May in the year 200 AD.

Escorted by Xu Huang and five thousand Dawn Riders, Wen Sheng went to Shouchun and met Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu still treated Zhou Cheng's envoys with courtesy.

Although Zhou Cheng comes from a humble background, his strength is his greatest capital.

At this time, Yuan Shu did not show off in front of Wen Sheng that he was"the fourth generation and the three nobles, the Yuan family is orthodox".

After Wen Sheng saluted, he said:"Wen Sheng pays homage to the general."

Yuan Shu said:"Why did you come here this time?"

Wen Sheng said:"The long war in Xuzhou has ruined people's livelihood, displaced people, and made the world uneasy. My Lord As the Great Sima, I should share the world's worries, so I sent someone here to persuade the general to make peace and make the two families stop fighting."

Stop fighting?

Yuan Shu raised his eyebrows. He had almost won the battle. Are you asking him to stop now?

Moreover, he believed that he was the chosen one and a person with great fortune. How could he stop fighting with Sun Jian?

Why should Sun Jian and Yuan Shu stop fighting?

Wen Sheng knew Yuan Shu's thoughts long ago and said:"If the two families can stop fighting this time, my lord will withdraw their troops. If one side is still fighting, my lord will attack the fighting side."

Yuan Shu was furious when he heard this and was about to I sent someone to cut it down and saw Wen Sheng take out a letter.

Wen Sheng said:"This is a letter written by my lord, and the army has seen it."

Yuan Shu gritted his teeth in anger after reading the contents of the letter.

However, I was still angry and endured it.

Because Zhou Cheng mentioned in the letter that if Yuan Shu killed the envoy, he would take the initiative to start a war. Zhou Cheng could mobilize his army southward at any time to assist Sun Jian in destroying Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu did not want to start a war with Zhou Cheng for the time being.

At this time, Wen Sheng said again:"The general's enemy is Cao Mengde, who dug up people's tombs. Who is more threatening than Sun Wentai or Cao Mengde?" This was also the reason why Zhou Cheng mediated the war this time.

Yuan Shu and Sun Jian went to war, and finally got the advantage of Cao Cao.

Under Zhou Cheng's force and Cao Cao's threats, Yuan Shu was forced to reach an armistice agreement with Sun Jian.

However, Sun Jian withdrew from Pengcheng State, Xiapi State, and Donghai County, while Yuan Shu withdrew from Langya State and Guangling County.

Xuzhou was divided into two

……

When Zhou Cheng was regulating the war in Xuzhou, Sun Jian's envoy also arrived in Wancheng.

Zhang Hong was a famous scholar, not just in Jiangdong.

When Cao Cao saw Zhang Hong coming, he entertained him with a feast. At the same time, he also wanted to win over Zhang Hong.

However, Liu Ye and others promptly dissuaded him.

Cao Cao then gave up the idea.

After Zhang Hong paid a visit to Cao Cao, he said:"General, my lord intends to unite the generals to fight against Yuan Liu."

Yuan Shu and Liu Biao both had strong capital.

Sun Jian and Cao Cao both offended two people at the same time and survived under the threat of two people.

At the same time, Tianya became a human being, and both of them had a common language.

Joining forces to fight against each other is indeed a basis for cooperation.

Xun Yu and Xun You also believed that alliance was beneficial.

Although the current situation of Cao Cao's army is not bad, after Yuan Shu and Sun Jian stopped their troops, Yuan Shu was able to free up his hands to deal with Cao Cao.

At this time, Zhang Hong said again:"General, apart from Yuan Gongdao, the Zhou thieves in the north are the general's biggest problem."

Cao Cao nodded, he hated Zhou Cheng deeply.

The hatred of seizing his wife and occupying the city is engraved in his heart.

June of the year 200.

Cao Cao and Sun Jian reached an alliance agreement. On the surface, they cooperated with Yuan Shu and Liu Biao. At the same time, they secretly reached an alliance to fight against Zhou Cheng.

……

The Battle of Xuzhou ended.

In Yecheng Boya Museum, the discussion about Xuzhou remains hot.

Although many people thought that Zhou Cheng would take the opportunity to go south, Zhou Cheng did not do so.

Of course, in the eyes of knowledgeable people, Zhou Cheng was right to do this.

Even if they occupy Xuzhou, they will be in trouble like Sun Jian in a short period of time.

It is easy to capture a city, but it is difficult to rule a city.

Zhou Cheng is obviously calm, knows how to make choices, and is not a mediocre person eager for quick success.

Therefore, the scribes who have been studying the general trend of the world for many years finally stepped into the recruitment hall and recommended themselves after waiting and watching for many years.
