In Shouchun city and the imperial palace of the Zhong Dynasty, it took a good half an hour for the general Ji Ling to tell Yuan Shu his strategy.

After hearing this, Yuan Shu repeatedly praised: "Ai Qing is worthy of being my general. This plan is closely linked and almost impeccable. I will certainly be rewarded for defeating the vassal army this time! "

"Thank you, your majesty. This strategy was discussed with Yuan Huan, Yan Xiang and Shu Zhao. I dare not make any contribution." Ji Ling quickly knelt down to thank him and said,

after hearing this, Yuan Shu nodded and smiled, looked at the people mentioned by Ji Ling one by one, and said, "everyone has made great contributions. I will give you a great reward after the war."

"Thank you A few people listen to, quickly out of the line Shane.

What they didn't notice was that among the courtiers, a sinister look was sweeping towards them. That man was Yang Hong, one of Yuan Shu's counsellors.

Ji Ling didn't know that he accidentally offended the guy who would be punished. Of course, even if he knew, he would not care. Ji Ling was deeply trusted by Yuan Shu. He could be said to be an orphan of the Zhong Dynasty, and he was only thinking about Yuan Shu.

Today's court meeting has solved the most important thing in Yuan Shu's heart, and Yuan Shu's heart has been put down more than half. Although he despises all the princes in his mouth, Yuan Shu still has some scruples from the bottom of his heart, especially the Anton army of Huangfu Chaobo and Yanzhou army of Cao Cao. For the former, he has suffered twice in his hands. For the latter, although Yuan Shu despises him very much, he knows his cunning.

Think of here, Yuan Shu toward his side of the eunuch point, eunuch understanding, immediately came forward and said in a loud voice: "officials have something to play, nothing to retreat!"

Just as everyone was ready to withdraw from the court, Yang Hong went out of the class and said, "Your Majesty, I have to play!"

Then Yang Hong took out a memorial from his arms, held it high on his head, and said: "since the general said that the princes and the army are not worried, Shouchun palace is too simple. In order to show the power of our emperor, I would like to ask your majesty to rebuild the palace."

Yang Hong talks a lot. After listening to Yuan Shu, he is in full bloom. Shouchun's palace was built in a hurry for Yuan Shu to become emperor. Yuan Shu wanted to rebuild the palace. Yang Hong just scratched his itch. As soon as he heard Yang Hong's performance, he ordered him to take charge of the repair of the palace.

Yang Hong's heart is happy, but other civil and military ministers in the court are angry. Now that they are worried, the villain encourages the emperor to overhaul the palace. This is what Sikong is responsible for, but there is something wrong in this period.

Fortunately, Yuan Shu was not so confused that he just ordered Yang Hong to make preparations first, select craftsmen, purchase materials, and start construction after the war. This made the civil and military officials give up their opposition on the spot. However, everyone was even more disgusted with Yang Hong, who only knew how to flatter the emperor.

Seeing that all the officials had nothing to play, the official palace announced that they would withdraw from the court, and then they all left. As for the transfer of troops and horses, since it has been decided, it is natural for general Ji Ling to discuss with Taiwei Yan Xiang about the specific arrangement, and then arrange the officials and generals to carry out it.

Two days later, Yuan's troops began to be mobilized.

General junyuejiu and Li Feng led 10000 troops each. In addition, Huang Yi led 30000 Lin troops, a total of 50000 troops. They crossed the huaishui River and settled in Xincai. They were responsible for commanding the southern cities of rucan and defending the Allied forces of huangfuchao and kongfu.

Qiao Rui led ten thousand troops to Juchao, and together with ten thousand soldiers of Jiujiang prefect yuan Huan, was responsible for preventing sun CE's army from attacking Jiujiang. In addition, Lu Dong's prefect Liu Xun led 10000 soldiers to liyang to prevent sun CE's army from attacking the Lujiang River from niuzhu.

Liang Gang and Chen Ji led 40000 troops to xiapi and defended xiapi together with Yuan Yin's 10000 guards to prevent Cao Cao's army from going south.

General Zhang Xun led ten thousand troops and cheated thirty thousand troops into Guangling to confuse sun Qijun.

Ji Ling LED general Chen lanlei and his 50000 troops to cross huaishui River northward to prepare for the battle with Huangfu Chaobo. Then he sailed south along huaishui River to hide his whereabouts and sneak into Gaoyou city. When sun CE's army attacked Guangling City, he suddenly came out and broke his army under Guangling City, if possible If so, it would be better to capture sun CE at one stroke, and Jiangdong would be determined by the first World War.

At the same time, the cities of Yuan Shu army began to strengthen the city defense and prepare for war.

At this time, in Danyang County of Jiangdong, sun CE was ready to go north to fight. Although sun CE had already issued a call to break away from Yuan Shu and cross the river to beg for thieves, he did not immediately send troops, but first calm down to consolidate his territory.

When sun CE left Huainan, he borrowed 30000 troops from Yuan Shu and 20000 troops from Sun Quan's old army in Wu jingsun Ben's hands. A total of 50000 troops attacked Danyang. After the capture of Danyang, tens of thousands of troops were sent back to Danyang.

After he announced his separation from Yuan Shu, sun CE sent people to expel the officials appointed by Yuan Shu, and then began to reorganize the troops, reorganizing nearly 100000 troops in Danyang. After the reorganization, sun CE controlled all the 50000 elite in his own hands, and then sent sun Ben and other relative generals to take charge of the cities of Danyang.After taking control of the whole county of Danyang, sun CE had the energy to prepare for the battle of crossing the river to the north. Danyang has a population of more than 600000 in 16 cities. After sun CE took control of all the cities, each city was garrisoned with three to five thousand troops, while Jianye was garrisoned with twenty thousand troops, and niuzhu, the largest port of Danyang, was garrisoned with five thousand water troops.

After arranging the defense of Danyang, sun CE began to prepare to lead the troops north. He left Cheng Pu, the veteran general, and Quan Rou, the newly invested general, in Jianye, his home town. He personally led 50000 troops, and with five generals, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zhu Zhi, Lu fan, and Lu Dai, he practiced his troops day and night in the camp outside Jianye.

While training his troops, sun CE sent people to sneak into the counties of Jiangbei to inquire about the news and wait for the time of sending troops.

As he had expected, at the end of May and the beginning of June, Huangfu Chaobo and Cao Cao began to gather troops to fight in Huainan. At this time, the intelligence of Jiangbei soldiers and horses constantly spread to Jianye, just as sun CE had expected before, Yuan Shujun's defense was tight in Lujiang and Jiujiang counties of Yangzhou.

In order to defend the army of Huangfu Chaobo and Cao Cao in the north, Yuan Shu sent several generals such as Ji Ling and tens of thousands of troops to Runan and xiapi.

It should be that Jiangdong's own army is still busy stabilizing Danyang's territory, so it is unable to move northward. Therefore, only Zhang Xun leads 30000 troops in Guangling county.
