    In fact, after Pengcheng County was ravaged by Cao Cao, it no longer had much value. It might as well be returned to Gongsun Zan.

    As for the territory in Yuzhou, Yingchuan County was in the hands of Cao Cao. Although Liu Bei was drooling at the sight, he couldn't take it back and had no choice but to grit his teeth secretly.

    ????????????? Liang, Pei, Chen, and Lu are feudal states, and all of them are members of the Han clan. Compared with them, Liu Bei, the current emperor¡¯s uncle, is really not as good as Miaohong.

    Fortunately, the four feudal states still gave him face. If he wanted to recruit troops, Liu Bei could do whatever he wanted. If he just wanted to collect taxes, don't even think about it.  For the sake of his reputation, Liu Bei felt very unhappy, but he could only hold his nose and endure it.

    Therefore, Liu Bei could only rely on the land of Runan County to support his army. The 50,000 cavalry in Liu Bei's hands removed 60% of Liu Bei's military expenses, and the rest was just enough to support an army of 100,000, even if it was given to him  No matter how large the army is, he will not be able to feed it.

    As both imperial uncles, Liu Bei felt that compared with Liu Zhe, he was so damn low.

    Liu Zhe's territory is several times that of Liu Bei's territory, and the population is dozens of times different. As for money, when Liu Bei thinks about this, he wants to cry.  Youzhou is known to be the richest in the world. People who have been to Youzhou say that gold is everywhere in Youzhou.

    I heard that rich people in Youzhou use gold and silver as quilts when they sleep at night.  The richest person in Youzhou is Liu Zhe. What makes Liu Bei jealous the most is that Liu Zhe will give bonuses to his subordinates every year and festival. Liu Bei is jealous when he hears the amount. Sometimes Liu Bei looks at his empty wallet.  He even wanted to go work for Liu Zhe.

    As for Liu Bei, he has not given his subordinates a salary increase for several years. During every New Year and festival, he only treats them to a meal.  As for money, Liu Bei didn't dare to mention it, and he was too embarrassed to mention it.  It¡¯s already settled that wages can be paid on time, so there¡¯s no bonus.

    Liu Zhe casually raised hundreds of thousands of black-scaled troops, which was easier than eating. As for Liu Bei, in order to raise an army of 50,000, he still owed Chen Wang Liu Chong 20,000 gold.

    With such a poor performance, Liu Bei felt that if he went out to stand with Liu Zhe in the future, the emperor would probably only recognize Liu Zhe as his uncle, but not him.  After all, there was such a miserable emperor, and the emperor would feel embarrassed if he told the story.

    Life was so hard, and Liu Bei had long wanted to improve it.  As for how to improve, of course it would be to seize land and collect more taxes.

    ??????????????????? But grabbing the land is not just a matter of grabbing it. There are people around him. If he makes a little move, he might attract several nearby companies to join forces to kill him.

    In addition, in order to maintain his apparent benevolence and righteousness, Liu Bei did not dare to start a war casually. He would only take action if his troops were well-known.

    For example, Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou and massacred % of the city, which aroused the anger of heaven and earth, so he immediately sent troops to occupy the territory. Unfortunately, the territory was not occupied, and instead he resented Cao Cao.  He had to spit out Pengcheng County and form an alliance with Gongsun Zan to prevent Cao Cao from dealing with him.

    In fact, Liu Bei has already drooled over Shouchun County. It is unreasonable that such a wealthy place should be taken over by a waste like Yuan Shu.

    In the past, it was because the Yuan family was powerful and Runan was still the Yuan family's hometown and had great influence. As long as the Yuan family made trouble in Runan, Liu Bei would have a headache for ten days and a half. Liu Bei had to befriend Yuan Shu to prevent Yuan Shu.  Do something with him.  Now it's great, Yuan Shu actually proclaimed himself emperor and became a rebellious minister and traitor. Liu Bei, the great uncle of the Han Dynasty, naturally wanted to help the emperor.

    Therefore, Liu Bei moved faster than anyone else. He jumped out immediately and cursed Yuan Shu for not being a human being and for being unworthy of his ancestors.  The Emperor of the Han Dynasty has been so kind to you and the Yuan family. Not everyone can have such honors as the Fourth Generation and the Three Dukes. Instead of repaying your kindness, your Yuan family wants to seek power and seize the throne. It is really abominable. As the uncle of the Han Dynasty, I, Liu Bei, have nothing to do with me.  Rebellious ministers and traitors like you are incompatible with each other.

    After cursing, Liu Bei took practical action. He immediately sent people to arrest all the young and old members of the Yuan family who stayed in Ruyang, Runan, and executed them on the same day. Thousands of heads rolled to the ground.

    Now that Yuan Shu has proclaimed himself emperor, the Yuan family has become traitors, and they can be killed without fear of any adverse reactions.

    The Yuan clan suffered another blow. Now the only people left in the Yuan clan are those who followed Yuan Shu in Shouchun.

    After killing the Yuan clan in Runan, their property was confiscated. The confiscated property made Liu Bei's eyes turn red. He was so irritated.  Then Liu Bei quickly organized his army and rushed to Shouchun, under the pretense of destroying Yuan Shu, the false emperor, but in fact he wanted to seize Shouchun as soon as possible.

    Yuan Shu became emperor in Shouchun. He was extravagant and licentious. He selected a large number of folk beauties to enrich his harem and lived a very comfortable life.  There are people who have been widely promoted from Long Zhigong's subordinates, and they have been in court.They were all compliments and flattery, which made Yuan Shu feel that becoming emperor was the wisest choice in his life.

    However, within a few days of this day, he received the news that Liu Bei, who was in isolation, killed his entire family and was leading an army to kill him.

    Yuan Shu was furious, you damn shoe buyer, you dare to go against me, you are seeking death!

    So Yuan Shu mobilized all his troops to fight Liu Bei to the death.
