Chapter Seventy-Two: A Similar History

Yuan Shao was resourceful but indecisive, and Gongsun Zan defeated Yijing in the second year of Xingping, that is, in 195 AD, and Yuan Shao had roughly occupied the land of the four states of Hebei.

Among them, except for the remote Liaodong land Yuan Shao is beyond the reach of the whip, the Montenegrin army Zhang Yan wandered in the Taihang Mountains, and Zhang Yang controlled the edge of Hanoi and Hedong, basically all the important and rich areas Yuan Shao has already gotten his hands.

Yuan Shao also slowly pulled together a huge civil and military group. Wu Youhe, Hebei Siting Zhu, Wen Chou, Yan Liang, Gao Lan, Zhang He, plus a Zhengliang Liyi, Wen Youtian Feng, and Xu Youfeng Ji Guotu, all of them were the leading generals and wise men at that time. However, most of the generals under Gongsun Zhan are unknown people, Yan Gang is only a god of Tian Kaifan, and the strategists are even more pitiful than nothing. The only one who can fight and use is only Zhao Yun, but it's a pity that Zilong can't see that Gongsun Zan is a short-lived hero, and he returned to his hometown early on the death of his brother.

In this situation, the historical Yuan Shao blocked Gongsun Chan in Yijing, and actually waited until the fourth year of Jian'an, that is, in 199 AD, to take the initiative to eliminate Gongsun Chan!

On the one hand, we have to admit that Gongsun Zhan's subordinate wolf has been changed to a tortoise, and on the other hand, we have to admire Yuan Shao's efficiency and patience.

In terms of losing his fighting spirit and enterprising spirit and only knowing how to use selfish self-preservation strategies, Gongsun Zhan fought with Lu Buyou. Thinking that in history, Lu Bu was trapped in Xiapi, and Chen Gong persuaded him to go out of the city to set up camp, and the city became a corner, but Lu Bu hesitated because of the reluctance of his wife and concubines and children, knowing that Cao Cao had completed the siege and flooded the city, Lu Bu was finally dumbfounded.

Gongsun Chan was even better than Lu Bu, and when Gongsun Chan was in power, he wantonly collected money and grain, and all of them went to Yijing. When the battle was unfavorable after repeated defeats, he immediately gave up all the city territory and hid in Yijing.

Yuan Shao, who could not attack the city, first tried to surround Yijing, which was the size of a projectile land, for more than a year, and did not wait for the tens of thousands of Gongsun Zan troops in Yijing to finish eating, but the food of his own army was consumed to Yuan Shao's bottom line. Gongsun Zhan's army, which had eaten well and lived well, then went out of the city and defeated Yuan Shao's general Liyi.

It is not difficult to understand that Gongsun Chan brought the grain that Liu Yu had worked hard to accumulate for more than ten years, plus the grain looted from the people of Youzhou, to Yijing. After being surrounded for a year, Gongsun Chan still has millions of grains. If these grains and grasses are put in Huainan, then all the people of Huainan will be enough to eat for a year if they lie in bed every day and do not work hard!

Repelled Yuan Shao, the first thing Gongsun Chan did was not to recover Youzhou, but to build a large number of buildings, strengthen and strengthen the defense of Yijing City, and made preparations to stick to Yijing for a lifetime and die in Yijing. First of all, more than ten trenches were dug in the outer Linyi River, and then a mound of five or six zhang high was piled up in the defense line formed by the trenches, and a camp was built on the mound.

The mound in the center of the trench is the highest, reaching more than ten zhang, that is, a height of twenty or thirty meters. Gongsun Chan built a barracks on top of this mound, and built a tall building with stones on top of the barracks, and lived in it himself, and built a gate with fine iron. He was so that men over the age of seven were not allowed to enter, and only lived with their wives and concubines. The highest part of this building is estimated to be at least fifty meters, which is higher than the main city tower of Luoyang, and is called Yijing Tower!

Seeing Gongsun Zan behaving like this, Yuan Shao, who had suffered a defeat, was also dumbfounded. Yuan Datou, who was distressed by the deaths and injuries of the soldiers and even more distressed about the money and food, decided not to fight, how do you like to play, don't affect the overall situation of my development of Hebei.

So Yijing was more than ten miles away, and Yuan Shao no longer sent troops to attack. Just send light cavalry and light soldiers to block and monitor the perimeter.

This blockade and surveillance lasted from the spring of the first year of Jian'an to the winter of the third year of Jian'an. For three years, Yuan Shao never attacked Yi Jing again, and Gongsun Zhan did not take half a step out of Yi Jing. Yuan Shao, who integrated the land of Hebei, was finally ready to go south to the Central Plains, so he wanted to negotiate peacefully with Gongsun Zhan, lest he lead hundreds of thousands of troops to the south and be set on fire in the backyard.

Comrade Gongsun Chan, a sensitive combatist skeptic, immediately insisted that this was a conspiracy, a huge conspiracy to induce him to relax his vigilance but carry out a sneak attack! So he directly threw Yuan Shao's envoy to the ice cave of Yi River, and at the same time strengthened Yi Jing's garrison.

This annoyed the kind-hearted Yuan Shao, the labor-management baba negotiated terms with you, do you really think that the labor-management dare not fight you? Three years ago, labor and capital could not be consumed, but now they have trained millions of troops, hoarded countless grains, good generals are like rain, and advisers are like clouds, believe it or not, you will be destroyed in minutes.

Gongsun Zhan, who has not walked out of Yijing Building for several years, knows the general trend of the world, and he doesn't know how fierce Yuan Shao's development is, he has always considered problems with his own thinking.

Well, it seems that this world will not be unified for one hundred and eighty years, and by that time, labor and management will have already died peacefully in this unbreakable Yijing Building, regardless of who you are the emperor.

Yuan Shao, who is more serious, is a giant whale, and Yi Jing's rock is just a stone no matter how hard it is. Because he only cares about selfishness and pleasure, Gongsun Chan has long been lost in his own stroke. After being surrounded by Yuan Shao, the generals asked Gongsun Zhan to send troops to rescue. Gongsun Chan said that it was simple for me to save this person, but if this situation happened again in the future, the general would only think about being rescued and would not fight to the death, so it was better not to save him.

Gongsun Chan seems to have a bit of truth in what he said, in the subsequent battles, the besieged Gongsun Chan camp guards really had a lot of dead battles.

However, compared to those who fought to the death, most of the generals chose to surrender after knowing that there was no one to rescue.

Later, Gongsun Zhan, who did not go out for several years and was not a prince, seriously degraded his IQ, and was hit by Yuan Shao's tricks several times in a row, and was killed miserably. In the end, Gongsun Zhan, who did not have enough troops, could not stop Yuan Shao from digging tunnels to gradually advance his tactics and set fire to ** in despair.

I would like to give a thumbs up here, in order to reduce the casualties of the soldiers, the kind-hearted and benevolent Yuan Shao adopted the slowest civil excavation tactics, and this battle took hundreds of thousands of people to fight for three months before it ended.

……

This is the dispute between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan in history.

But Zhang Xiu made this history happen in advance. Because Cao Cao unified the Central Plains in advance, he felt that if he didn't conquer the Central Plains in the south, Cao Cao would be able to eat Jingzhou and Guanzhong.

So, when Cao Cao was conquering Zhang Xiu, Yuan Shao used troops against Yijing almost at the same time.

The goal of the two powerful princes at that time was the same, that is, to unify their own regions, obtain a large strategic depth and a stable rear, and make final preparations for the unification of the north.

It's just that one person succeeds, and the other fails. Not only a failure, but a big defeat, a fiasco!

However, it is said that in the current Central Plains pattern, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao, who have restarted the war, have turned the middle ground between the two forces into a no-man's land, and have put on a long-term tug-of-war situation. Such as Ruyin County and Pei County, they were all relocated. The fields were destroyed, and the cities were empty.

After Liu Bei led hundreds of his own soldiers to Guangling County, he also easily settled Yang Fenghan Xian and controlled the 50,000 soldiers and horses of Guangling under the command of these two people.

Liu Bei's way of leveling Yang Feng Han Xian was very simple. In today's parlance, it is: meet and do!

Yes, it's that simple and crude. Brother has a chrysanthemum spear Zhao Xinda sword Galen, oh no, it's a snake spear Zhang Yide sword saint Guan Yunchang, do you still need to use any strategy against you two local chickens and dogs to capture and kill again?

So, when greeting Liu Bei, the pacification envoy sent by Cao Cao, Yang Fenghan Xian, who looked stupid, was directly killed. Then Liu Bei rode out to show Cao Cao's thief order issued to Yang Feng and Han Xian, as well as Zhang Xiu's letter to the Huainan military and civilians, and then relied on the military talisman certified by Cao Cao given by Zhang Xiu, and the tiger power of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, and easily obtained the command of these 50,000 soldiers.

This scene immediately shocked Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao, who were sent by Cao Cao to assist Liu Bei, and their jaws dropped, Cao Gong did say that it was a heavy task to behead Yang Feng and Han Xian on this trip, but he didn't expect it to be so simple, and it was completed so carelessly?

Obtaining only the command of the army was far from the effect Liu Bei wanted to achieve, what Liu Bei really needed was a place to show his ambitions, and the position on the edge of the Central Plains was not very important, but the prosperous and rich Guangling County was exactly what Liu Bei expected. So Liu Bei released the former Guangling Taishou Han Song, who was imprisoned by Yang Feng and Han Xian, and sent Han Song back to see Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu under the pretext that Yang Feng Han Xianam's head needed to be sent to Shouchun. Then he relied on Sun Qianjian and Mizhu to govern the civil affairs of Guangling, and relied on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to lead the Guangling Mabu army. Widely implement benevolent government and win the hearts of the people of Guangling.

What the? You ask where are Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao, who were sent by Cao Cao to spy on Liu Bei?

Liu Bei hehe, sending Yang Feng's head back to Han Xian not only needs Han Song, a literati, to explain, but also needs two generals to escort him, after all, this is the head of two former figures, what should I do if I was robbed by a cat and a dog as winter food halfway?

What, you asked Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao if they were willing?

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are two brothers. Come on, Brother Zhu Lingluzhao, let's let you have one hand, it's better to compare marksmanship and knife skills?

Zhu Lingluzhao, who is neither stupid nor two, came and went in a hurry. Liu Bei visited Guangling with them, and they went back after ten days. The theme of the visit is: Guangling can't do without me Liu Xuande!

It's just that when these two goods escorted Han Song back to Shouchun, Shouchun City had already changed its flag, and Zhang Xiuguang recovered Shouchun City.

In the end, these two people exchanged the heads of Han Song and Yang Feng and Han Xian for passage back to Xuchang.

After Liu Bei heard the news of Zhang Xiu's mutiny in Huainan, he was said to be in a good mood. After all, there is Zhang Xiu in front of his territory, and the sky is falling and the tall man is on top.

As shrewd as Liu Bei, he actually guessed that Zhang Xiu was actually waiting to go, and he also expected the news of Zhang Xiu's mutiny. Because, he read his own eyes from Zhang Xiu's eyes.

When he was desperate in Xuzhou and was under Cao Cao, Liu Bei had to admire his seemingly bland eyes from the bronze mirror and the water every day.

Hearing the news of Liu Bei's self-reliance, Cao Cao was not angry but happy. A gentleman can't guard against people, and villains can't guard against people. It's just a small remote Guangling County, you can see a person's ambition, anyway, after being mutiny by Zhang Xiu, he has no time to take care of Guangling, in short, this wave is not a loss......

Historically, Liu Bei went north to join Yuan Shao under the pretext of intercepting Yuan Shu in June 199 AD, borrowed 50,000 soldiers from Cao Cao, and marched towards Xuzhou under the co-leadership of Zhu Ling Lu Zhao.

Liu Bei, who met Yuan Shu to meet him, won a complete victory, and directly relied on Guan Yu to kill the Xuzhou assassin appointed by Cao Cao, and took the 50,000 soldiers lent to him by Cao Cao to stand on his own, and expelled Zhu Ling Luzhao.

Something like that, in this history, happened!
