Chapter 795
Changan.

Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor, and his reign title was Datong.

In addition to marking the year, the year number also means praying for blessings and singing praises.

Liu Bei took the reign title as Datong, which means the unification of the world.

Sun Quan, Liu Biao, Lu Bu, and Gongsun Kang successively sent envoys to proclaim their ministers, and Sun Quan and Liu Biao even sent their sons as hostages.

Liu Biao sent his eldest son Liu Qi as a hostage because he was forced by Cai, but Sun Quan sent him as a hostage willingly because he sent Sun Ce's eldest son.

Sun Ce's son was sent to Chang'an. There were many complaints in Jiangdong, but everyone understood the concept of one king and one courtier.

For example, although the veterans Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Zhu Zhi were dissatisfied, they were only dissatisfied. After all, Danyang, Wujun, Kuaiji and other counties were not peaceful and needed the support of the Jin army.

Sun Ben, the prefect of Yuzhang, was seldom calm, and only Zhou Yu expressed his dissatisfaction.

Gan Ning first pacified Wu County, and then led his army into Danyang, defeating the Danyang water bandits one after another. After this battle, Gan Ning initially gained a firm foothold in Jiangdong.

Before the envoys sent by Gongsun Du left Chang'an, Zhang Fei sent an urgent report: Gongsun Kangfan.

At that time, the Jin army had just settled in Hebei, and then quelled the chaos in the Western Regions and Yizhou. There were very loud calls for the main battle between the court and China. Some people even suggested that the envoys from Liaodong should be chased and beheaded.

A few days later, Zhang Fei sent news of the victory over Gongsun Kang.

One month later, news of the chaos in Xiangping came.

Liu Bei had to send envoys to Liaodong to settle the follow-up affairs of Liaodong.

In October of the first year of Datong, the three counties of Liaodong: Xuantu, Liaodong, and Lelang were conquered successively. Han Dang also sent Gongsun Kang's head, along with Gongsun Gong and Gongsun Kang's wife who were imprisoned by Gongsun Kang.

Liu Bei granted Gongsun Gong the title of Marquis of Le Lang, and Le Lang County surrendered without a fight thanks to a letter from Gong Sun Gong to the prefect of Le Lang, and the prefect of Le Lang surrendered from the county.

In November of the first year of Datong, Liu Bei established Pingzhou Mu in Liaodong, with Gao Gan as the first Pingzhou Mu, Tian Yu as Liaodong prefect, Yan Rou as Xuantu prefect, Xing Yong as Lelang prefect, Tian Chou as An The guardian of the Dongdu Protectorate, Han Dang was transferred to the general of Zhendong.

It is said that it is the Anton Governor's Mansion, but it is actually like the Western Regions. The guards are all barbarians such as Wuhuan and Sanhan. To put it bluntly, it is an empty shelf.

However, there is a 3000-strong guard army under the Duhu Mansion to assist Tian Chou in dealing with the Hu people in the Sanhan area.

The winter of the first year of Datong was a calm winter. Although there were few disturbances on the border of the Jin army, there were no large groups of nomads attacking the border.

In the second year of Datong, the Jin army was still cultivating their health and rest, but there were constant small battles.

First of all, in March of the second year of Datong, Xu Huang led his army to invade Dongjun, plundered the people of Dongjun, and destroyed Cao Ren's farmland in Dongjun.

Under the instigation of Zang Hong, the governor of Qingzhou, Xu Rong dispersed his cavalry into the Jibei Kingdom, looted the people and destroyed Cao Jun's fields.

It can be said that the entire border between the Cao army and the Jin army was harassed by the cavalry of the Jin army, destroying the fields of the Cao army.

In fact, Liu Bei's intention was very simple, that is, he did not give Cao Cao a chance to restore people's livelihood. From Yuzhou to Jiujiang, from Peiguo to most of Yanzhou, they were harassed by the Jin army.

Even Jiangdong Ganning had cooperated with Lujiang Ji Ling to enter Jiujiang, almost to the city of Hefei, and Zhu Huan and Xu Sheng attacked from Wujun.

In fact, Tian Feng came up with this plan. He didn't speak out to remonstrate, but discussed it with Professor Ju during the lecture. After hearing this, Liu Bei felt that it made sense.

If Yuan Shao listened to Tian Feng's words in the early stage of Guandu, while supporting Liu Bei to cause chaos in Yuzhou, while wooing Liu Biao and Sun Ce to harass the Huaihe River Basin, it would only be a matter of time before Cao Cao's defeat.

Now although Cao Cao's power has been greatly reduced, advisors such as Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You, and Jia Xu have all been won over by Liu Bei, and five good generals such as Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Zhang Ying, and Yu Jin are all generals under Liu Bei's command. Zhu Ling died in battle, but Cao Cao There are already Cheng Yu, Man Chong, Sima Yi, Lu Qian, Le Jin, Xia Hou, and Cao's generals under his command, and their power cannot be underestimated.

It is said that although Tian Feng did not become an official, several of his disciples were conscripted by Liu Bei as censors, and even Tian Feng and Liu Bei gave him the right to write a letter directly.

Liu Bei even thought about the position for Tian Feng, Yushitai, one of the Yushi on the left and right, which is Wei Zheng's position.

In May of the second year of Datong, Cao Cao's army was short of food and had to send troops to Xuzhou again.

This time without the cooperation of the Jiangdong army, Huailing and Xuyi south of the Huai River were heavily guarded. Gao Shun was in Xuyi, and Mi Zhu was transferred from the East China Sea prefect to Xiapi prefect, and Cao Bao was stationed in Huailing.

Cao Cao had no choice but to change his route, invade Guangling County, and massacre the cities of Tangyi, Yuguo, and Jiangdu.

Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou again, which immediately triggered the memory of Xuzhou people a few years ago. Before the massacre of Hua, Fei, and other dozens of cities, Cao Cao slaughtered Guangling again. Send food and money to ask Lu Bu to send troops to teach Cao Cao a lesson.

Lu Bu was overjoyed when he got the money and food, and immediately led his army to set off.

Before Lu Bu arrived in Guangling, Cao Cao had withdrawn from Guangling, and sent Cai Yang and others from Peiguo to plunder Pengcheng and other places.

Lv Bukong spent countless money and food, but failed to catch a single hair of Cao Cao. He was furious, and immediately sent his army to attack Peiguo.

Lü Bu plundered Xiao and Pengping counties, and disregarded Chen Gui's persuasion to imitate Cao Cao's massacre of the city in several counties, so the scholars and people of Pei State made concerted efforts to help Cai Yang defend the city.

Lu Bu besieged the city for several months, and when winter came, he had to return to Pengcheng again.

If it is said that Lu Bu was played around like a monkey by Cao Cao, then Yu Jin's performance can be described as brilliant.

In the first year of Datong, Yu Jin was appointed by Liu Bei as the prefect of Mount Tai. Liu Bei had already proclaimed himself emperor, so Yu Jin naturally didn't have to hide his head and show his tail, and he couldn't hide it.

Yang Yu is the long history of the ban. Since Cao Cao's first campaign against Xu failed, all the counties in the south of Surabaya, including the state of Lu, belonged to Lu Bu. Lu Bu appointed Mi Fang as Prime Minister of the State of Lu.

Mi Fang's younger sister, Mi Huan, also had a place in Liu Bei's residence, and she was a natural partner with Yu Jin. Although Mi Fang was transferred to Xiapi, Donghai was replaced by Lu Bu's confidant Xu Kai, but Xu Kai was a famous person in Yanzhou, so he naturally hoped to return to his hometown as soon as possible.

Therefore, it can be said that they are obedient to the ban, and the supply of soldiers and food is never lacking.

Therefore, Yu Jin trained troops in Mount Tai for one year, and finally sent troops to attack Surabaya in the second year of Datong.

Yu Jin's opponents were still Lu Qian and Zang Ba. Zang Ba wanted to attack Yu Jin halfway, but Yu Jin led his headquarters as the vanguard. cross the river.

Although the bandits under Zang Ba's command were not afraid of death, they could only fight and retreat when they encountered an elite with strict military discipline like Yu Jin, and finally they were defeated by the attack of the army.

Yu Jin attacked Cheng County again, and after Zang Ba received Lu Qian's reinforcements, he fought Yu Jin again outside Cheng County. As a result, Zang Ba was defeated by Yu Jin again, and Zang Ba fled back to Juping overnight.

Wenyang and other counties surrendered upon hearing the news. Lu Qian personally supported Zang Ba and asked Zang Ba to attack him at halfway.

Zang Ba was furious, Mount Tai was Zang Ba's hometown, and also Yu Jin's hometown. Although the two fought and caused many deaths and injuries to the people of Mount Tai, each was their own master.

Zang Ba fled back to Mount Tai disheartened, and sent someone to inform Yu Jin.

Yu Jin got the news of Zang Ba, first sent people to control the upper reaches, and then forcibly crossed Wenshui, killing Lu Qian by surprise, Lu Qian had to retreat to Fenggao again.

Feng Gao was captured by Zang Ba, and Lu Qian had no choice but to flee to Jibei and defected to Xia Houyuan.

Yu Jin got Mount Tai, and invited Zang Ba to come out of the mountain, but Zang Ba couldn't get out of the mountain because his father was burned to death by Liu Bei.

The Jin army won Mount Tai and completely surrounded the Cao army. The two armies will meet without obstacles. The next big war will inevitably be a full-scale war.
