Whether the Lord of Fengxiang City can become the first lord of the princes is still an open question, for example The melee between princes in the north has already begun. The Peiping Army's southern expedition to Yizhou returned without success. During the battle at Dafengkou during the retreat, Gongsun Zan also lost his elite white-horse followers, which was a heavy loss. However, Gongsun Zan kidnapped a large number of people and property from Liu Yu's territory, which made the Peiping army recover very quickly. Feilongbaobao worked hard in Liaodong and developed rapidly, and Yuan Shao's foundation in Yizhou became increasingly solid. All these made Gongsun Zan feel a great threat. Gongsun Zan, who was unwilling to be trapped in a corner of Peiping, did not wait for the Peiping army to fully recover, and then openly attacked the outside world. The purpose of using troops is to increase our strength as soon as possible before a powerful enemy launches an attack on Peiping. Liaodong Feilong Baobao and Yizhou Yuan Shao are both easy to mess with. Gongsun Zan swung the butcher knife at Liu Yu. Without any prior occupation, 20,000 Peiping troops quietly assembled in the border area. It was the end of the month, and the moonlight was dim. Under the cover of night, the Peiping Army entered the area under the jurisdiction of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, and then divided the troops into three groups to advance into the hinterland of Youzhou. The Peiping Army moved quickly, but the Youzhou Army was obviously ill-prepared for the Peiping Army's large-scale attack. Gongsun Zan's troops advanced all the way, seizing three county seats and more than ten towns overnight, and their troops were directed towards Ji County, the seat of Youzhou! At noon the next day, Liu Yu learned the news of the large-scale invasion of the Peking Army. He was furious and ignored the advice of his advisers and generals, and hurriedly assembled an army of 30,000 to attack. Four days later, the main forces of the two armies met in the field. After two hours of fierce fighting, the strange troops led by Gongsun Zan appeared behind Liu Yu. Under the sharp attack from front and back, the Youzhou army was in chaos, and finally ended with the victory of the Beiping army. In this battle, the Peking Army killed more than 5,000 people and captured more than 3,000 people. The Youzhou Army had to retreat in panic. From then on, the initiative on the battlefield was firmly in the hands of the Peiping Army. In fact, Youzhou Prefecture¡¯s army has a larger number of troops and is slightly better equipped than the Peking Army. However, the Youzhou Prefecture Army, which lacks sufficient actual combat experience, is not worthy of being an opponent of the Peking Army who has experienced hundreds of battles. In addition, Liu Yu was not good at military affairs and made a series of mistakes: he hastily dispatched troops without learning more information about the Peking Army; the troops rushed to the front line for two days without having time to rest and recuperate to support their soldiers. , and then engaged in a decisive battle with the main force of the Peking Army. These mistakes directly led to Liu Yu's defeat. The disastrous defeat on the main battlefield allowed the Peking Army to calmly encroach on the peripheral territory of Youzhou Prefecture. The actual control area of ??the Peking Army continued to expand. Liu Yu was heartbroken but had no choice but to do anything. Liu Yu, who was deeply embarrassed, had no choice but to hold on to the main cities while sending people to ask for help from the outside. Before sending troops, Gongsun Zan had seriously considered the issue of whether external forces would intervene. After all, Liu Yu was a clan member of the Han Dynasty and had a great reputation. He was also the undisputed controller of Youzhou. Peiping's military operation of "offending the superiors" faced extreme challenges. Big risk. In terms of geographical location and mutual connections, there are only two vassal forces most likely to be involved in the war, Yizhou Yuan Shao and Liaodong Feilong Baobao. However, the Yizhou Army Network had just suffered some losses in Fengxiang City and had lost a lot of ordnance and supplies. Presumably Yuan Shao was not willing to help Liu Yu fight the Peiping Army at this time; as for the Liaodong Yellow Turban Army, although there were many recommended generals, they The main force is fighting in Goryeo, and a certain number of troops still need to be stationed to stay in Liaodong. Unless the war between Peiping and Youzhou Prefecture lasts for a long time, which is what Gongsun Zan is trying to avoid, Liaodong will probably not act rashly. Therefore, Gongsun Zan decided that now was the time to send troops to Liu Yu! The final result seems to be not much different from Gongsun Zan¡¯s original idea. Yuan Shao and Feilong Baobao quickly responded to Youzhou Prefecture's request, condemning Gongsun Zan's unjust act of wantonly attacking Youzhou Prefecture, and demanding that Peiping withdraw their troops immediately. Gongsun Zan ignored this request. In order to show support for Youzhou Prefecture, Yizhou sent a force of 5,000 people. However, the speed of this force going north can be described as a turtle, and it stopped after reaching the Youyi border. He just didn't say clearly "We are here to watch a show"; Liaodong did not, as Liu Yu hoped, "take advantage of the emptiness in Peiping to attack Gongsun Zan's lair". The dragon baby went around Liu Yu's sphere of influence by sea, which symbolized Three thousand troops were deployed to express support for Youzhou Prefecture. Then this troop flew away from the war zone at a flying speed. They competed with the 5,000 Yizhou Army to see who was more stable. They also euphemistically called it "discussing together to defeat the enemy." "The big plan" "Let us attack Peiping, saying that "all the land we occupy belongs to you" is a blank check and wants us to work for him. Does Liu Yu think we are three-year-old children? Once Liaodong attacks Peiping, Gongsun Zan will immediately do it. If you return to fight with me, the crisis in Youzhou Prefecture will be resolved, but we in Liaodong will have to face the wrath of the Peiping Army directly. We cannot do this kind of loss-making business," Feilong Baobao sneered. So Liu Yu had to stand alone to withstand the fierce attack of the Peking Army, and the towns east of Jixian were either captured. Either the defender will be forced to surrender, and the territory controlled by the Peking Army will be destroyed.Gradually expand. The area controlled by Liu Yu was already "months" larger and richer than Gongsun's, and he realized that it would be difficult to defeat the Peking Army head-on. Youchouhengdi gave up the field battle, and most of the tens of thousands of soldiers gathered in important towns, taking advantage of the defenders' natural advantages to deal with the Peking Army. This strategy greatly increased the difficulty for the Peking Army to capture the city, and the war entered a stalemate stage. It seems that the outcome of the chaos in Youzhou will be difficult to determine in a short period of time, and the Feng Ai fundraising campaign has also entered a critical stage. Under the call for nationwide fund-raising, the villagers of Fengxiang showed unusual enthusiasm. The various donation registration points were crowded and the scene was very lively. In order to set up as many registration points as possible, Fengxiang officials came out in droves. Scholars were also called out of the school to temporarily act as bookkeepers, which greatly reduced the pressure on Fengxiang officials, but they still seemed a little in a hurry. In the end, Zheng Xuan¡¯s disciples They also joined in. The news was released at noon, in the evening. The donations raised in the main urban area have exceeded one hundred and ten dollars! "The donation registration work is still continuing. It has never been interrupted." Old Wanjin was a preliminary statistics an hour ago, and the situation of each affiliated territory has not yet been reported, and there has been no news from Long Fei. I have sent people to deliver meals, torches and lamps to various registration points, and informed everyone that registration will also be accepted at night, so as to complete the work at hand as soon as possible. " Finally. Sun Liang said excitedly: "The actual amount raised is definitely more than this! " The vigorous donation drive lasted until midnight and came to an end. During this period, some villagers couldn't bear to wait for a long time. They even skipped the registration process and directly opened their money bags and poured them into the basket. Before leaving, they said: " The money should be treated as a token of our gratitude and there is no need to pay it back. " Many people were injured. " At dawn, the first day's donations were finally counted, and the entire territory raised a total of tens of thousands of gold. This number not only made Sun Liang frown slightly, but also saw a lot of great things in the world. Zheng Xuan and Wang Yue were also amazed. The next day, more Fengxiang people flocked to the donation registration point, and more and more villagers automatically skipped the registration process. Some villagers could not squeeze in. They simply set up temporary donation points outside the crowd, and several villagers were responsible for maintaining order and collecting cash, blatantly "stealing business" with the officials. "Of course, no one knows who donated the money from these temporary donation points, and who donated how much. Officials and scholars soon had to give up the registration process, and continuing to do this work not only affected the efficiency of donation , and it was meaningless. On the second day, Shi Wan was received! However, the donation income began to drop significantly, and the donations on the fourth day exceeded one million. Starting from the fifth day, every The daily fundraising income is less than one million. This situation is not surprising at all. Most of the villagers have donated in the past three days, and some villagers have even donated more than once. The savings in their hands are not unlimited. . Many villagers' property is mostly in physical form, and they don't have much cash in their hands. When the entire territory is collecting cash, even if they want to cash it out, it is difficult to find a home. The selflessness and enthusiasm shown by the Fengxiang villagers have moved the officials in the administrative center. The villagers have tried their best and raised a lot of money. When everything is settled, A Niu reported to his allies. Everyone was dumbfounded by the amount of donations received from the villagers, including Feilong Baobao, who had become rich overnight. The cash in the treasury was increasing rapidly every day, but Sun Liang, who held the financial power of the territory, was getting more and more excited every day. Solemnly. Sun Liang clearly knows that compared with the actual demand, there is still a big gap, which is as difficult as a chasm. "Mr. Pang, I think the Lord can borrow money when he goes to Xuzhou this time. Get that much money? " Pang Tong blinked his watery little eyes. He said in a deep voice: "Mi is a famous wealthy businessman in the country. He has thousands of customers and a family fortune of hundreds of millions. For us, 20 million yuan is hard to reach the sky. But Mi was not so embarrassed. " Sun Liang's expression relaxed, and he asked hopefully: "Then there is a way! " "That's not necessarily the case. It is true that Mi's family is rich, but it is very difficult to raise a large amount of cash in a short period of time; besides, businessmen are chasing profits, so why do they lend us so much money? The collateral we can put out may not be seen by others. "Then that means it won't work?" " "It's hard to tell. What did the Lord say? By the way, opportunities and challenges exist! "Xu Pai, Chess County, Donghai. Standing in front of the Mi Mansion again, A Niu couldn't calm down for a long time. Whether he can get the support and help of the Mi family will be the key to his success.It is directly related to whether he can serve as the Prime Minister of Qi! On this point, A Niu completely agreed with Chen Gong and Pang Tong.
