On the side of the couch, let you sleep soundly?

After Zhang Liao left, Zang Ba chewed this sentence repeatedly for a long time. Taishan County is the eastern border county of Yanzhou, both nominally and in fact must be controlled by Cao Cao, and what Zang Ba has is control under moderation, which seems bad? But there's something worse. Langya County was a border county in the northern part of Xuzhou, nominally controlled by Yuan Shao, but in fact controlled by Zang Ba, and although it reached a short-lived alliance with the Taishou sent to Langya by Yuan Shao, it was not a long-term solution at all.

Zang Ba does not want to lose control of Taishan or Langya, so he must make a choice between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and no matter what this choice is, he will be the premise for Cao and Yuan to fight in the future. In this choice, Zang Ba is more inclined to Cao Cao.

Because Yuan Shao made him feel unreliable.

Even if he chooses Cao Cao, he will be a pawn in the future war, which is inevitable, because whether it is the war between the Cao clan and the Yan clan or the Yuan clan, the area he is in is the first battlefield.

Zhang Liao's words touched Zang Ba's heart.

He couldn't escape the battle.

When Zang Ba looked to the northwest, under the lush greenery woven by the mountains and dense forests, he seemed to see dense war clouds.

Soon after Zhang Liao left, Zang Ba sent a few riders to follow Zhang Liao, and when the sky was getting dark for the next two hours, there were rural soldiers running in embarrassment to spread the news, saying that they were attacking most of the Yan army in the township near the left of the county, where there was a cave where the Taishan army hoarded grain and grass for the people to avoid the winter disaster, and there were only 100 defenders, all of whom were captured by the Yan army and released, but the grain and grass were obviously difficult to recover.

Zang Ba was shaken by Zhang Liao's words after all, no matter what Zhang Liao's intentions were, but his words were right - Taishan and Langya were the hinterland of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but they were insignificant to Yanbei.

Although he still wouldn't let Zhang Liao pass through Taishan County, he secretly gave him some grain and grass...... Those grains and grasses were not a large amount of military rations, but only for the people to prepare for the winter, although it was not much, but it was enough to solve Zhang Liao's urgent needs.

What's urgent? That is, the situation is so bad that it cannot be delayed, if it weren't for Zhang Liao riding alone to meet Zang Ba in Bo County, maybe even he didn't know that the situation could be so bad during his run.

Yanbei was crowned King of Zhao in the north, no matter whether the people under the rule dared to be angry and did not dare to speak or were convinced, no one opposed it in the end, and even the great north was not far from Yin Jian of the Southern Xiongnu, Goguryeo, and Buyeo, and there was not even a rebellion that could be called 'huge', but south of the Yellow River, it was different.

At least in the land of Qingyan, with powerful princes like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, it is difficult for the monstrous power of Yanbei to cross the river.

No one can hurt Yanbei as the king's punishment, but this thunderous anger really smashed on Zhang Liao's head. Liu Chong, the king of Chen, who was known for his bravery, transferred to Mount Tai after learning that Zhang Liao's troops had won a great victory in Dongjun, and drove his glorious chariot to proclaim himself and sent troops.

This is where Zang Ba's warning comes from...... Don't go to Ludi.

Because if you go to Ludi, there is a chance that you will collide with King Chen's army.

When the Later Han Dynasty came to this situation, it seems that the clan surnamed Liu has been wiped out from the glory of the ancestors, and there is no more of their exploits in the world, even if it is the state pastor and assassin history of those clan relatives, they are only marquis at most. Because the princes and kings are used for captivity, which is in the interests of the royal family, they have the taxes and dignity brought by the feudal state, and they no longer need power.

If there are powerful princes and kings, where will the emperor be placed?

But Liu Chong, the king of Chen, was an exception, he was brave, good at using bows and crossbows, and superb archery, which was different from those brothers who inherited the feudal state. This can be seen in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, when the princes of Jizhou, Liu Xu, the king of Anping, were captured and expelled from the country in the same year for great rebellion. And Chen Guo, because of Liu Chong's protection, brought countless armor to protect the territory and the people during the Yellow Turban period of the world's chaos, so that the displaced people from all over the world competed for dependence, and the troops once reached more than 100,000.

Between Liu Chong and many princes and kings like Liu Xu, there are eight hundred spirit emperors.

Later, when he came to fight for Dong, Liu Chong also joined the alliance, and the troops were stationed in Chen Guoyang Xia to strengthen the prestige of the coalition army, and he called himself the general of the auxiliary Han. If Liu Hong was still young when he was alive, he would be the first to get Liu Chong, but at that time, Liu Hong was no longer alive, and the little emperor who succeeded him was young and ignorant, so he came over. Regardless of whether Liu Chong's behavior in the status of a prince is right or wrong, it is undeniable that his feudal kingdom is as strong and powerful as him.

Zhang Liao slowly threw the silk scarf intercepted by his subordinates from the road to the ground, and the joy of getting Zang Ba's subsidy for grain and grass disappeared with this article written by Chen Guoxiang Luo Jun...... On the text, Chen Yanbei lost his morality, harmed the Southern Xiongnu, imprisoned the emperor, and sent troops to the south to start a war, not caring for the people, and even took the ancestral training of the non-Liu family and the king of the world, threatening to bully the Liu family, so he called on the princes and kings of the Han family to go north together to crusade against the Yan family.

Chen Guo is like the last piece of paradise in the turbulent Hou Han Dynasty, because there is a fierce tiger on this paradise to protect it. Everyone in the world knows Liu Chong's bravery, but he is limited by the identity of the princes and kings and cannot lead the troops, which is also the reason why he only recruited Yangxia to strengthen the momentum of the coalition army when he was fighting Dong, even if he is a tiger, he is also a tiger whose head is imprisoned.

But now the cage was opened because of the Yan clan's title of king, and the princes and kings of various places south of the Yellow River joined each other, the king of Peng, the king of Beihai, the king of Liang, the king of Jibei, and the king of Rencheng...... There are always many kinds of people, there are people who have money to pay, and they have passed on the banner because of Liu Chong's call, and a huge coalition army composed of the princes and kings of the Han Dynasty has become unstoppable.

Among them, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, the de facto rulers south of the Yellow River, were also indispensable.

This kind of news made Zhang Liao feel cold to his bones, Jibei and Rencheng were in his north, Chen and Liang Erguo were in his west, and Peng Chengguo was in his south, not to mention the Cao city in all directions. To the east of him, Zang Ba of Taishan County forbade the passage of soldiers and horses to cut off the road, and further east, the King of Beihai also raised troops.

The world is so big, but there is still room for Zhang Liao?

Through this silk cloth with inscriptions, he seemed to see the smiling faces of the princes and princes south of the Yellow River, who were either yin owls, resolute or fierce.

These princes, kings, and horses who want to take his head and send troops with sacrificial flags are powerful? Most of the vassal states are rich, and it is the right thing to say that the soldiers are strong and strong, but if you say how superb their ability to lead the troops is, Zhang Liao is not worried, what really worries him is that these princes and kings join the war, and the nature of this war can change because of the struggle for the dominance of Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou.

Zhang Liao stood in the midst of the ten thousand armies, only to feel the numbness under the heavy armor from the top of his head to the tail vertebrae, and muttered in a low voice with blank eyes: "If this battle can be won, I am afraid that it will be...... Has there been a change of dynasty? ”
