Just when the Yuan family was destroyed, the situation in the Central Plains had undergone earth-shaking changes. As Cao Cao reduced his troops, many troops voluntarily withdrew from Qingzhou, Yanzhou and Henan Yin. When these troops retreated, they would inevitably plunder everywhere, kill and set fire. After the army withdrew, they were thieves and the people were in dire straits. In order to survive, many larger families could only build docks to protect themselves. These caused considerable trouble to Pei Qing, who later took over these places.

However, no matter what, it is much easier than directly attacking Cao Cao's territory. In addition, Pei Qing's army will not violate the people no matter where they go, so it is very popular among the people. Whenever they arrive, the people will welcome Pei Qing's army.

Pei Qing then appointed Zang Ba as the governor of Qingzhou, Xu Rong as the governor of Henan, and Lu Su as the governor of Yanzhou. He also asked Xie An to replace Lu Su as the governor of Yuzhou, and ordered Zang Ba to lead his army to quickly occupy the entire Qingzhou, while Lu Su made progress in Yanzhou. Xu Rong led his army to occupy the entire Henan Yin, including Luoyang. Before Xu Rong sent troops, Pei Qing solemnly warned that this advance was mainly to recover lost territory, and that he must be kind and political in the meantime, and he must not be as cruel and blood-hearted as before.

Xu Rong's loyalty to Pei Qing had already reached 200 years. In addition, under Pei Qing's guidance in recent years, his cruel side had been suppressed, so he agreed respectfully. As Pei Qing ordered, he implemented benevolent policies to the people and promoted Pei Qing's virtues. Wherever he went, the people were convinced.

Zang Ba's progress was also very smooth. The army quickly occupied Qingzhou south of the Yellow River. There was only one plain left in Qingzhou that had not been recovered. So Zang Ba ordered Changxi, Sun Guan and his brother Sun Kang to guard the territory south of the Yellow River, and led Yin Li and Wu Dun to drink the Yellow River and take the Plain directly. On the Plain, part of Xiahou Yuan's army was stationed, but how could these troops be the opponent of the three powerful generals? Zang Ba's army directly took Pingyuan City with an unstoppable force.

At the same time as Zang Ba, the governor of Xuzhou, Lu Wen, was also the governor of Xuzhou. She knew that this was an excellent opportunity to avenge her father, so she would not let her go. Before she went to Xuzhou, she wrote a letter to Pei Qing, recommending Chen Deng to act as the Xuzhou affairs, and she led her army north to Yanzhou.

In fact, when Lu Meng advised her to hand over the Xuzhou affairs to Chen Deng at the beginning, Lu Wen refused to agree, because Chen Deng fled directly to Guangling when her father was in danger and did not go to rescue her father, so Chen Deng also had to bear certain responsibility for her father's death. It would be very generous if she didn't go to settle the score with him. How could she recommend Chen Deng again?

However, after Lu Meng's persuasion, Lu Wen gradually figured it out that although Chen Deng was a self-protection strategy at the beginning, he did delay some of Yuan Shu's troops. The reason why Lu Bu was defeated was mainly because he was not guarding against Cao Cao. The main responsibility was actually Lu Bu himself, no wonder others.

"So my enemy is the old thief Cao Cao. This time I must bring troops to the north, kill the old thief Cao Cao, and avenge my father!"

After Lu Wen understood this, she felt relieved about Chen Deng, so she recommended Chen Deng to take over Xuzhou affairs.

Lu Wen led his father's old subordinates Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Hou Cheng, Cao Xing, and Chen Xue, Lu Meng and others to lead a 30,000 army to attack Yanzhou. With thunderous force, he swept away the local bandits and some families who were trying to resist. He successfully arrived in Puyang, and then crossed the Yellow River through the white horse and launched a fierce attack on Liyang.

At that time, the general Man Chong, who was guarding Li Yang, was not an ordinary person. Although he was not a good general of the five sons, his ability was not weak. He was considered a famous general of Cao Wei. When he assisted Cao Ren in guarding Fancheng in history, Cao Ren had the intention of retreating. It was through his persuasion that Cao Ren gave up his plan to retreat and persisted until the arrival of the reinforcements. Later, he became the governor of Yangzhou on the southern front and repeatedly defeated Sun Quan's attack. He was really brave and resourceful and capable.

Lu Wen was ambushed by Man Chong when she underestimated the enemy and attacked Li Yang. At this critical moment, two powerful generals Zhang Liao and Gao Shun led the way and firmly stabilized the formation. Not only did they collapse the opponent's offensive, but they also launched a counterattack against the enemy. In this battle, Zhang Liao was injured in five places and Gao Shun was injured in seven places. However, none of them killed more than a hundred enemy soldiers.

Seeing Zhang Liao and Gao Shun so brave, Lu Wen gradually calmed down. She rode her horse and thrust into the enemy formation, rushing left and right, and no one could be her enemy.

Next to Lu Wen, Lu Meng also held a silver spear and guarded the side, killing many enemy soldiers who were attacking Lu Wen.

In fact, Lu Meng's martial arts skills are no less than Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, but he did not charge in the battle like Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, but instead stood by Lu Wen silently. This is because he knew that no matter how brave the general was, he was actually afraid of the enemy's cold arrows, and he also knew how important the safety of the commander was to an army, so he was willing to escort Lu Wen.

This is not because Lu Meng had other thoughts about Lu Wen. After all, both of them had the surname Lu, which was destined to be impossible between them in the era when the same surname was not married. Of course, Lu Meng did not have this intention. He just regarded Lu Wen as his sister. Although her martial arts skills had surpassed hers, she also needed someone to protect her.

Of course, under the leadership of the generals, Hou Cheng and Cao Xing were also very brave in this battle. They also fought hard to kill the enemy. After the bloody battle of the whole army, they finally broke Man Chong's ambush and launched a counterattack. After losing Man Chong, he fled for 20 or 30 miles, and lost Li Yang.

After occupying Liyang, Lu Wen was ready to continue her troops and captured Yecheng in one go. Then she brought troops north to Changshan Kingdom, killed Cao Cao, and avenged her father. However, Lu Meng advised her to stop first, on the one hand, let the overly tired soldiers rest, and on the other hand, she defended Liyang for the lord so that the army could enter Hebei in time.

Lu Wen had already learned at this time that Luoyang had been liberated and Pei Qing's army was on the way to march and could reach Liyang in less than half a month.

In fact, the person Lu Wen is most grateful to now is Pei Qing. If it weren't for Pei Qing, would she be there today? She might still be an ordinary girl. Not to mention avenging her father, it would be impossible to protect herself.

"Master is coming? I haven't seen him for a long time. Since that's the case, I'll wait for him first and join him in the army to enter Yecheng. At the same time, let him see if my martial arts have improved?" Lu Wen's face was full of deep expectations. Although she is now the governor of Xuzhou and General Anton, she is still like a child in front of Pei Qing. With novelty and progress, she wants to show her to her adults.
