Chapter 332: Liu Yu was miserably pitted by Cao Cao
Cao Cao made Liu Yu miserable when he did this.
"Cao Apu, you are an ancestor on this king's day. This king didn't do anything, you came to this king first. Liu Yu was so angry that he scolded.
Liu Yu can't do it if he doesn't get angry.
Originally, Liu Yu thought that when Cao Cao needed time to stabilize Jianghuai, he would send troops to Jizhou to attack Yuan Shao.
Liu Yu calculated very well, and Yuan Shu made Jianghuai a lot of harm, and it was light to describe it as a poor livelihood. Even if Cao Cao gets here, he won't be able to stabilize it for a while, and the people who are waiting to be fed are a huge burden. Moreover, Sun Ce, Liu Biao, and Liu Bei will definitely not be so honest, and there will definitely be contradictions and frictions between interests and territories with Cao Cao, and even wars. With the checks and balances of these people, Cao Cao is not to mention stabilizing Jianghuai, and it is already good if he can not suffer losses. Then Liu Yu can safely go to attack Yuan Shao, who was weakened by the thieves.
However, Cao Cao used iron-blooded means to swallow the Yuan family of Runan of the fourth and third dukes, and also copied the property of several big families, and obtained countless wealth, using this wealth, Cao Cao stabilized the situation. And Sun Ce and Liu Biao, in order to protect their immediate interests, did not dare to contradict Cao Cao. What made Liu Yu most angry was that after Liu Bei was driven out of Shouchun by Cao Cao, he obediently returned to Xuzhou and didn't let out a fart. Liu Yu really wants to ask Liu Bei, where is your blood.
If the plan goes well, Liu Yu will be able to unify the north, lay a huge strength to unify the world in one fell swoop, and then destroy Cao Cao with a few attacks. When the time comes, Liu Yu will be able to easily go south and slowly take down the entire Han world.
Liu Yu's perfect plan was ruined by these uncooperative bastards.
Cao Cao united with Liu Biao and Yuan Shao to attack Liu Yu, causing Liu Yu's current situation to be very unoptimistic.
Although Yuan Shao was made by the thief group led by Zhang Yan, Yuan Shao took advantage of this opportunity to constantly survive the fittest and trained a large number of elite soldiers.
Yuan Shao knew that Liu Yu was the mastermind behind the thief group, and it was like that under his own rule, it was not so easy to restore the original state. Therefore, Yuan Shao simply let go of his hands and feet, mobilized a large number of soldiers and horses to send troops from Youzhou, and personally took command to enter the state. Huang Zhong, the garrison of the state, was caught off guard and retreated. Fortunately, Liu Yu has been operating in Bingzhou for many years, and all preparations are very sufficient, so he can stabilize the situation and form a confrontation with Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao was ruthless in his heart, and transferred a part of the defensive soldiers and horses from Jizhou, led by Yan Liang, and attacked Huguan.
Yuan Shao's desperate behavior, Tian Feng and Huang Zhong were so anxious that they kept reporting the situation to Liu Yu. Liu Yu hurriedly ordered Lu Bu and Dian Wei to speed up the rescue, so that Yuan Shao could not develop further.
At the same time, outside the Tiger Prison Pass, Cao Cao personally led tens of thousands of troops known as elite to threaten Luoyang.
Ma Chao and Chen Gong on the Tiger Prison didn't know Cao Cao's intentions, and they felt that since Cao Cao didn't attack, then they could hold it firmly.
Ma Chao and Chen Gong's choice was in line with Cao Cao's calculations, so he couldn't wait to continue like this, allowing Yuan Shao and Liu Biao to weaken Liu Yu.
Liu Biao did not personally lead the troops this time. The commanders of this attack on Wancheng and Shangyong are Huang Zu and Cai Mao respectively. Liu Biao didn't want to fight against Liu Yu, and now he didn't have much ambition. Liu Biao didn't want to fight, but his subordinates wanted to fight, the big families in Jingzhou wanted to fight. Although there is no news about Liu Yu's territory, there are not many big families under Liu Yu's rule, except for Yang Biao, who saw the situation quickly, and several ministers who are from big families, there are also Tian Feng, Chen Gong, and Fu Zhu who took refuge in Liu Yu earlier are from big families, and the others are all small families, and more are from poor families. From this point, it can be seen that Liu Yu's attitude towards the family, so in order to prevent Liu Yu's future invasion, the family in Jingzhou decided that Wancheng and Shangyong must be taken back.
Liu was surging with emotions for the crowd, and he also gave the order to attack helplessly.
Cai Mao led 50,000 soldiers and horses to attack Wancheng, and almost all of his troops were private soldiers of the family. Liu Biao is not stupid, so he will not give his descendants to Cai Mao. In order to show her presence and influence in Jingzhou, Cai Mao asked various families in Jingzhou to provide a lot of private soldiers.
Last time after Liu Yu ate the closed-door soup, Cai Mao, who was small-minded, was always angry. Now that there is such a good opportunity to take revenge, where will Cai Mao let it go.
Zhang Xiu of Wancheng understood that he could not rush to send troops, as long as he held Wancheng, he could be invincible. So no matter how Cai Mao attacked and how sarcastic, Zhang Xiu just didn't send troops, so angry that Cai Mao kept attacking Wancheng, causing huge losses to Wancheng.
Huang Zu led the Jingzhou Navy to swim against the tide and kill Shangyong.
Liu Yu did not have a naval army, nor did he have a special naval general. After obtaining Shangyong, Liu Yu ordered the construction of warships along the Yangtze River to train the navy.
It was precisely because of this that the family in Jingzhou began to feel threatened.
Huang Xu and Gao Shun arrived at Shangyong before Huang Zu with 30,000 soldiers and horses.
After Huang Zu's navy came, he did not go ashore to attack the heavily guarded Shangyong City, but used his powerful navy to wipe out all the unfinished naval forces of Liu Yu.
Huang Xu and Gao Shun are both land generals, and they don't know anything about water warfare at all, so they can only watch Liu Yu's water army that has invested a lot of effort burned.
After Liu Yu received the news, he was so angry that he really wanted to tear Liu Biao up.
After Huang Zu destroyed Liu Yu's army, he calmly landed on land and began to attack Shangyong.
In the battle on land, Liu Yu's army had not been afraid of anyone. Gao Shun directly rushed out with the trap camp and fought against Huang Zu.
Huang Zu thought that Shangyong City did not have many elite soldiers and strong generals, so he came to attack the city himself, and naturally took Shangyong City.
The trapping camp is a powerful attack force under Liu Yu, although Gao Shun's reputation is not obvious, but when he fights, he is extremely brave. Huang Zu's soldiers and horses were slaughtered a lot.
Huang Zu suffered a big loss and decisively counterattacked with crossbow arrows on the warship, which made Gao Shun worry about the excessive loss and returned to Shangyong City.
The two sides also began to confront each other.
Luoyang is also not stable here, Cao Cao arranged some spies in Luoyang according to the method provided by Li Fu before. Now, under Cao Cao's orders, these spies continue to wander among the people of Luoyang to spread rumors and make trouble, and all kinds of rumors that are unfavorable to Liu Yu are spreading in Luoyang.
Liu Yu called Li Gui over and scolded him bitterly, if there were similar rumors in Luoyang, Li Gui could go back and not have to come back.
Li Gui felt that his face had been lost, he had made intelligence, and now he was actually being rumored by others on his own territory, could Li Gui not blame himself.
Li Gui, who was scolded by Liu Yu, was also furious at the helm of the "dark department", saying that if there was still a little rumor, the "dark department" from the leader down would be punished.
The punishment of the "dark part" is relatively harsh, and the lightest one has to lie in bed for half a month.
Under such a threat, it did not take half a day for the "dark department" to dig out all the enemy's spies.
After interrogating all the spies, Li Gui waved his hand and killed all these spies.
The entire Luoyang City slowly settled down.
