Hebei, Yecheng, and the edge of Zhanghe River.

After Yuan Shang pacified Tuobaliwei, he immediately arranged defenses and sorted out subsequent matters. After that, he immediately led his troops back to Hebei.

At the same time, Cao Zhi also handed over the military power that Yuan Shang designed to secretly hand over to him, so that the generals of the Cao family would return with him and return to their idle life.

At this time, the two of them stood side by side on the Zhang River, looking at the surging river, they couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

"The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, the waves rush the gold, and Tuoba Liwei is also taken away by God."

Cao Zhi glared at Yuan Shang and said sarcastically without hesitation: "First of all, this is not the Yangtze River or the Zhang River. Secondly, Tuoba Liwei was not taken away by God, but by you."

Yuan Shang didn't refute when he heard this, but just smiled and said, "You are not greedy for power. You handed over the military power as soon as you come back. I thought you would take this opportunity to help me pacify Tuoba."

Cao Zhi sighed long and shook his head and said, "Take it down. After seeing Tuoba Liwei's fate, if I dare to show off, wouldn't I become a fool? You should just let me live for a few years."

Yuan Shang said helplessly: "You are different from Tuoba Liwei. He is my ally. You are my friend. How can you compare with your allies when dealing with your friends?"

Cao Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this: "Did you also fool Tuoba Liwei with these words?"

Yuan Shang touched his nose, smiled slightly, and stopped talking.

After a while of silence, Cao Zhi suddenly heard: "I heard that Liu Bei was fighting with the army in Xichuan, and Sun Quan also gathered all his troops to fight against him. This is a good opportunity for you."

Yuan Shang smiled and said, "How do you say this?"

Cao Zhi replied after hearing this: "When Shu wins, he will take the opportunity to destroy Wu, and when Wu wins, he will take the opportunity to destroy Shu, the world will be successful. Who can stop you?"

Yuan Shang nodded and suddenly said, "In your opinion, who can win the battle between Wu and Shu?"

Cao Zhi thought for a while and said, "Liu Bei and Zhang Fei are eager to take revenge, and they also have a strong army that is full of power. Zhuge Liang, the wielding dragon, is also a genius in the world. I think Liu Bei's chances of winning are greater."

Yuan Shang nodded after hearing this and said, "Actually, I feel that way too."

Cao Zhi was silent for a while and said, "What are you going to do next? How to act?"

Yuan Shang raised his head and laughed: "I plan to stay for a few days before returning to the Central Plains, sit in Xuchang, and then secretly gather troops..."

Speaking of this, Yuan Shang raised his head, looked at the white clouds and canggou slowly floating in the sky, and thought to himself: This time I will gather all my troops and make a thunder attack. Let Sun Liu see how powerful I have in the Yuan family in Hebei for many years~!

***************************************

Yuan Shang dealt with Tuoba Liwei in Hebei. On this side, Liu Bei launched a vast army of troops to attack the Eastern Wu, and the land and sea troops advanced together. Zhang Fei, the front vanguard, led 100,000 elite troops in Langzhong and left Xichuankou first.

On the Eastern Wu side, Sun Quan was in charge of Nanxu, and he ordered Zhou Yu to be the chief governor. He was in charge of Jingzhou, Lusu, and Lu Meng to fight against Liu Bei.

I heard that the pioneer Zhang Fei was out of Sichuan and Zhou Yu sat in Jiangling, and immediately called on the generals to discuss a plan to confront him.

Zhou Yu sat in the lobby, looked around for a while, and said, "In order to revenge Guan Yu, Liu Bei raised a army of troops that swayed the country, and appointed Zhang Fei as the vanguard in front, led a 100,000 vanguard army to invade our Jingzhou. What do you think?"

Next to Zhou Yu, Lu Meng thought for a while and said, "Liu Bei's army is upright and its strength is revealed. Zhang Fei himself is unstoppable. The most urgent task is to defend it. The gateway to the west of Jingzhou should be in Zigui. If he can block Zhang Fei in Zigui, he will be able to accomplish anything after a long time."

Zhou Yu looked at Lu Meng with appreciation and exclaimed: "Zi Ming's words are exactly the same as the meaning of my governor. Everyone, who would like to lead troops to Zigui to block Zhang Fei?"

When Zhou Yu finished speaking, a young general Sun Huan stood up and bowed and said, "Grandmaster, I am willing to go."

Zhou Yu laughed and said with a smile: "The young general is brave and deserves to be the relative of Wu Hou. However, Zhang Fei is a tiger general in the world. Few people can resist it. I am afraid that the young general is not Zhang Fei's opponent."

When Sun Huan heard this, his eyebrows suddenly raised and said, "Don't want Zhang Fei to be more morale. Although he is brave, he is only a brave man. Why should he be afraid? The last general studied military books hard since he was a child. Although he dared not say that he was firmly defeated Zhang Fei, it is not difficult to defend Yi Zhigui! The last general is willing to lead five thousand soldiers to guard Zigui and share the worries of the Grand General!"

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "I am very comforted by the Major General so brave. Well, I will send you five thousand elite soldiers. You can guard Zigui. As long as you can block Zhang Fei for a month, I will gather troops from Jingzhou headquarters to support me."

When Sun Huan heard this, he was overjoyed and immediately took the order and left.

Lu Su looked at Sun Huan's back as he walked out of the main hall with concern, thought for a while, and said, "Grandmaster, although Sun Huan is a young hero, Zhang Fei is not simple. This person came to Sichuan with Liu Bei and made many outstanding achievements. He is actually a person with rough and detailed skills, not to mention that when Lu Bu was alive, he was very afraid of Fei's courage. He was indeed brave and capable. Sun Huan was young and vigorous, but he was afraid that he could not stop him."

Zhou Yu smiled slightly when he heard this, but did not say anything, but his eyes were deep and he had some thoughts.

***************************

Zhang Fei's troops were leaving Xichuankou, and Liu Bei's army was still in the middle of Sichuan. When he heard the spy say that Zhou Yu sent Sun Huan as the vanguard in front and led 5,000 troops to guard Zigui, he couldn't help but laugh at the sky.

"My third brother is a hero in the world. He is invincible and unstoppable. He also has my 100,000 Langzhong people. Who are Sun Huan? He dares to defend the city if he only leads 5,000 troops? He ordered my third brother to quickly capture Zigui within ten days!"

When Liu Bei said these words, Zhuge Liang was sitting next to him, gently shaking the feather fan, without saying a word. After the order was passed, Zhuge Liang said a few more words to Liu Bei, and then walked out of the camp on the excuse, and followed him with his student Ma Su.

After leaving the general's tent, Ma Su immediately said to Zhuge Liang: "Military advisor, the lord ordered General Zhang to attack Zigui within ten days. Do you think he can attack?"

Zhuge Liang swayed his feather fan and said, "Of course we can win, what is Sun Huan? How can we compare with Zhang Yide...but..."

Ma Su's expression tightened and said, "But what?"

"But Sun Huan is just an introduction, and Zhou Yu must have a last resort."

Ma Su was anxious when he heard this and hurriedly said, "Why don't you remind your lord?"
