Zhang Yu's actions made the princes not calm down.

Be suspicious of each other.

Yuan Shu and Sun Ce were the first to receive the news, but after Sun Ce received the news, he scolded, this Zhang Yu was so shameless, and he wanted to pit them again, and then make money by himself.

Sun Ce's first thought was not to buy it, which was obviously a pitfall.

But when Yuan Shu received the news, he became more active.

"There is a big loss of troops, almost all of the recruits are recruited, and the quality is even worse, and if you don't rely on equipment to support you, how much combat effectiveness can you have."

After the last war, Yuan Shu's losses were too great, and now he is far from recovering.

If you can buy equipment, then you can at least increase your combat power.

It's just that Yuan Shu is also very worried, because he has no money at all.

This time the loss is so big, I have no money for a long time.

If he wants to buy equipment, then he has to smash the pot and sell iron to make some of it.

Yuan Shu lost hundreds of thousands of troops and replenished hundreds of thousands of troops, which was incalculable.

At present, there are still a large number of unarmed troops in Yuan Shu's army.

Yuan Shu began to make a holy decree, so that his subordinates began to raise funds, and at the same time sold officials to major families.

It's just that it's not so easy to sell officials now, and in this war, Yuan Shu's losses are so big, exposing Yuan Shu's weakness, and these shrewd families are no longer willing to spend a lot of money on Yuan Shu.

The news spread further, and soon Cao Cao, Li Dao, Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao and others all got the news.

Liu Biao naturally didn't react, and cursed Zhang Yu for a while, and didn't make any moves.

At this time, Liu Biao's body was much better after cultivation, but he was still weak.

Liu Biao had already noticed Cai Mao's movements, but there was no way to stop it.

What Liu Biao could do was to keep Xiangyang and block Cai Mao's army outside Xiangyang City and prevent his army from entering Xiangyang City.

But this decision made Liu Biao give up other regions, making it more convenient for Cai Mao.

The main reason is that Zhang Yu's strategy is too confusing, only targeting officials below the county order, and it is difficult for these news to reach Liu Biao, Liu Biao does not know that Cai Mao has replaced so many officials on a large scale.

As soon as he knew that, he would definitely stop Cai Mao, and even did not hesitate to break up openly.

But Liu Biao has not found it, or only found a small part.

When Li Dao and Zhang Xiu received the news, they wanted to buy weapons and equipment to strengthen their strength.

Li Dao occupied Luoyang and collected a large amount of money, he had money in his hands, but he did not have many troops, and he had a great desire to buy.

And Zhang Xiu's losses after the battle with Zhang Yu were also quite serious, and they also needed to supplement their strength.

Both have a need to buy.

And when Cao Cao received the news, he felt a pain in his eggs, which was completely aimed at him.

Cao Cao received the news and went to gather his subordinates as soon as possible, this Zhang Yu was going to do something again, and Cao Cao was afraid that Zhang Yu was coming at him.

"My lord, I'm afraid Zhang Yu is really targeting us." Cheng Yu said after understanding the situation.

Xun You also said: "In this way, Zhang Yu will definitely benefit the most, and we will suffer the most." ”

The reason is very simple, they are all sold to Cao Cao's enemies, and Cao Cao naturally suffers the most.

"The ghost is not gone, this chapter feather is too good to toss." Cao Cao said angrily.

After the anger was over, Cao Cao still had to solve the problem first.

"Guys, how do you break the game?"

Xun You was the first to say: "Now that the princes don't believe in each other, any suspicion may be tricked, so I am afraid that the joint boycott will not have much effect." ”

Cheng Yu also said: "Zhang Yu has calculated this, so he fanned the flames everywhere, and soon rumors will be flying all over the sky, so we should prepare for the worst." ”

Man Pang also said: "Lord, we take the initiative to break the situation, and we may be able to take advantage of this matter." ”

Cao Cao was very satisfied with the performance of several henchmen, at least he saw through Zhang Yu's plan and knew how to deal with it.

After some discussion, Cheng Yu came up with an idea.

"My lord, if Zhang Yu does this, it will inevitably make all parties suspicious of each other, we might as well unite others to attack one side, and if we can destroy one side, we will destroy one side." Cheng Yu said.

Xun You also said: "The weakest is none other than Zhang Xiu of Wancheng, Yuan Shu seems to be huge, but in fact, he doesn't have much strength, and he will definitely be able to win if he fights the two of them." ”

Cao Cao nodded, thought for a while and said, "Then Zhang Xiu, if you fight Yuan Shu, Zhang Yu will definitely take the opportunity to do something." ”

Zhang Yu's power has now spread across the Yangtze River and occupied Chao County, once Cao Cao fights Yuan Shu, maybe Zhang Yu will take the opportunity to sneak attack Cao Cao.

"Fight Wancheng, but Li Dao occupies Luoyang, I'm afraid we have to repair relations with Li Dao and cooperate with Li Dao." Man Pang said.

Li Dao had just attacked Cao Cao and occupied Luoyang, and it was probably a little difficult to cooperate with him to fight Wancheng at this time.

"Although it is difficult, it can be done, who is willing to send an envoy to Luoyang, explain the power, and let Li Dao send troops with us to attack Wancheng." Cao Cao said.

Xun Yu is out of the queue and willing to be an envoy.

Soon after Cao Cao made his decision, rumors spread.

Many princes began to speculate with each other, fearing that someone else had bought weapons and equipment.

Guo Jia handled it very well, and there was always gossip that some of the princes' subordinates secretly contacted the people in Jiangdong.

Guo Jia asked intelligence officers to falsify a lot of fake news, but the fake news was supported by facts.

For example, someone saw the high-level of Jiangdong enter Luoyang, and then disappeared.

For example, a high-ranking envoy went to Cao Cao.

It is a fact that he is looking for Cao Cao, and he is also a high-ranking representative of Jiangdong, but he didn't have anything to do, but he told Cao Cao about Cao Ang and the three of them are doing well in Jiangdong.

There are also public high-level representatives who went to find Lu Bu, and some high-level representatives went to Sun Ce, looking for Lu Bu to really talk about weapons and equipment, and going to Sun Ce to directly talk about the marriage between Zhang Yu and Sun Shangxiang.

Go to Cao Cao, if someone says that it has nothing to do with weapons and equipment, someone must believe it, even if Cao Cao comes out in person to refute the rumors, it will only make people more suspicious.

And Cao Cao can't be seen yet.

Various news increased the suspicions of the princes.

The atmosphere between the princes became even more tense, as if a great war could begin at any time.

Regardless of whether they buy weapons and equipment or not, the major forces have to guard against others buying them, so they have strengthened their vigilance and mobilized their troops and horses.

The movement of troops and horses has attracted the attention of all parties.

Zhang Yu's plan finally worked, and the suspicion of all parties increased.

Although everyone knows that this is Zhang Yu's order to sell his weapons and equipment, he also has to take a set.

If you don't buy it yourself, in case someone buys it secretly.

In fact, some weapons and equipment can't completely change the situation at all, but Zhang Yu's weapons and equipment are too amazing on the battlefield.

This weapon and equipment also depends on who uses it, even if Yuan Shu's army is fully equipped, twice as many soldiers and horses as Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses are against each other, it will be a fiasco.

However, the appearance makes the role of weapons and equipment deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and they believe that buying good weapons and equipment can greatly increase their strength.
