At the end of March, Youzhou

Youzhou Mu Liu Yu is in charge of the people's livelihood, and the elite soldiers of Youzhou are mainly in the hands of General Fenwu, the Marquis of Ji.

Gongsun Zhan's Fenwu General is different from Han Cheng, Han Cheng's Fenwu General was sealed by Jizhou Mu Han Fu himself; And Gongsun Zhan's Fenwu general was rewarded by the imperial court for his military merits because he fought against the northern nomads in 189.

At the beginning of the month, both of them received a letter from Han Fu, and the letter to Liu Yu was mainly based on the replacement of Zhongshan and Hejian counties; The letter to Gongsun Chan was mainly written to Gongsun Chan Anping and Qinghe County.

Gongsun Zhan looked at the two counties sent for nothing, although they were in the south of Jizhou, they were very satisfied.

For Gongsun Zhan, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, Jizhou has long been in the bag, but he just lacks a reason to attack.

At this time, his subordinates reported: The Yellow Turban Qingzhou Army gathered more than 300,000 people to occupy the three counties of Dongguang County, Gaocheng County, and Fuyang County in Bohai County, which are all in the north of Bohai County, and have threatened the land of Youzhou, and want to join the Yellow Turban Black Mountain Army around Shangdang County and other surrounding counties.

Gongsun Zhan could only temporarily put aside the affairs of Anping and Qinghe counties, and personally led 10,000 infantry, 10,000 cavalry, and 1,000 white horses to fight against the Yellow Turban Qingzhou Army.

In May, the Yellow Turban Qingzhou Army was broken in Nanda, Dongguang County, and more than 30,000 people were beheaded. The Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army saw that although Gongsun Zhan's army was small in number, it was extremely strong in combat, especially the soldiers who rode white horses and were known as "White Horse Righteous Servants", who were extremely brave, and could not resist the Yellow Turban Qingzhou Army, so they abandoned their baggage and crossed the Yellow River south.

Gongsun Chan got the news early, so he set up an ambush by the Yellow River, and when the Yellow Turban Qingzhou Army crossed the river to halfway, Gongsun Chan led the army to suddenly kill, the Yellow Turban Qingzhou Army suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, and the blood flowed like a river, Gongsun Chan captured about 70,000 people of the Yellow Turban Qingzhou Army, pressed back to Youzhou, and obtained countless car armor and property at the same time.

For a time, Youzhou Gongsun Zhan's prestige was shocked.

Youzhou Mu Liu Yu said to Gongsun Zhan: "The general has already obtained hundreds of thousands of people. Qinghe County in Jizhou and Anping County are too far away from Youzhou, so it is better for you to talk to Yuan Shao in Jizhou and exchange the land of two counties for the densely populated Bohai County. It is possible to settle the newly acquired population, and to recuperate for a while, after all, the soldiers have just finished the war. ”

Gongsun Chan replied: "Even if you are ready to send troops, where is the reason to retreat?" If Yuan Shao doesn't give me Anping County and Qinghe County, I will take it myself, and then Bohai County and Wei County will be mine.

The rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army in Bohai County, Jizhou, threatens the safety of the people of Youzhou, and he Yuan Shao is not compensating for something?

I feel that this Yuan Shao is not as honest as his predecessor Han Fu, and he is a villain.

Look at Han Fu, give me the land of the two counties as military expenses, and want me to block Yuan Shao for his nephew Han Cheng, how generous. ”

Liu Yu couldn't persuade Gongsun Zhan, so he could only say: "When will the general evacuate the army in Daixian, after all, we have agreed with Han Fu that we can't be too discredited." ”

Gongsun Chan smiled and said, "I'll arrange for my men to evacuate." Hmph, I think Dai County is a good place, since I help you Han Cheng work, you Han Cheng can also help me. When I finish cleaning up Yuan Shao, it is estimated that the matter of Dai County will be almost the same. ”

So he sent someone to Yecheng and asked Yuan Shao for the seal of the two county guards.

......

In mid-May, in Yecheng, Yuan Shao met Gongsun Zhan's subordinates, and then discussed with his subordinates in the Yuan Mansion Chamber.

At the beginning of March, when Yuan Shao got the news of the new Taishou of the eight counties of Jizhou, he understood that this was Han Fu's revenge.

In April and May, Gongsun Chan was fighting against the Yellow Turbans in Bohai County, and he didn't have time to think about the two counties.

After Gongsun Chan repelled the Yellow Turban, the first thing he did was to ask for the land of the two counties. Yuan Shao had already regarded the two counties as his bag, and he was so angry that he scolded Gongsun Zhan.

Everyone in the hall was silent, quietly looking at the six strategists at the front, these six strategists are: Tian Feng, a giant deer from Jizhou; Chen Lin, a native of Guangling; Jingzhou Nanyang people Feng Ji and Xu You; Yingchuan people Xun Chen and Guo Tu. They are all talented and brilliant people. At this time, only the six of them could persuade the lord Yuan Shao.

Guo Tu squinted his eyes, thought for a moment and said: "The lord is the son of the Yuan family, and he is eloquent, that Han Fu is just a protégé of the Yuan family, and his ability is extremely mediocre, the lord wants to take Jizhou and save the people from fire and water, then Han Fu doesn't know what to do, and he dares to refuse if he doesn't take the initiative to send it, it's really a pity to die."

It is really not appropriate for the Son of Man to use this method. The picture thinks that the lord should send someone to persuade Ju Yi to surrender. and Youzhou Gongsun Zhan, Liu Yu sued for peace, cut Zhongshan and the land of the two counties between the rivers to them, and signed a mutual non-offensive and defensive contract. ”

Yuan Shao looked at Guo Tu and said in his heart, Guo Tu still understands my mind. I have just taken Jizhou less than two months, the foundation is unstable, it is really not suitable to raise troops on a large scale, to be repaired for half a year, let Liu Yu, Gongsun Zan spit out the land of the two counties.

At this moment, Tian Feng frowned slightly and said, "Lord, I thought Guo Tu's plan was inappropriate. Juyi in the south, with only 10,000 horses, gave him three counties, what will he occupy? There are incompetent people under him to govern one side, how many of the people in the land of the three counties are sincerely obedient?

As long as the lord raises troops to Wei County and attacks the center of Zhao County, then Ju Yi knows the reputation of the lord and will raise everyone to vote; I heard that Ju Yi was unruly and sent people to lobby, for fear that Ju Yi would look down on the lord, and it was inevitable that Ju Yi would be extremely arrogant in the future, and I didn't know where it was.

As for Liu Yu in Youzhou in the north, Gongsun Zhan's generation, what is the lord afraid of them? The land of my Jizhou, my Jizhou army is stationed to occupy, they want it, just fight, after we cede the land of the two counties, the people of these two places will not trust the lord, and I am afraid of disasters in the future. ”

Yuan Shao looked at Tian Feng and said, "This person has a very good plan and is quite talented, but why can't he speak?" When did I, Yuan Shao, be afraid of Ju Yi, Liu Yu, Gongsun Zhan and the like, just because the people didn't want to start a war now. ”

The strategists thought for a moment, Xun Chen, Chen Lin, and Xu You agreed with what Tian Feng said, and only Feng Ji felt that what Guo Tu said made sense. Seeing that everyone disagreed with what he said, Guo Tu secretly wrote it down in his heart, but his small eyes flashed like a poisonous snake.

Yuan Shao saw that everyone agreed with Tian Feng's meaning, and he didn't want to dismiss it too much, so he took a central strategy and sent Guo Tu to persuade Ju Yi to surrender and go north to fight against Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu. and drove the people sent by Gongsun Zan out of Jizhou.

After Yuan Shao drove Gongsun Zhan's men out of Jizhou, he directly led 25,000 soldiers and horses directly to Zhongshan and Hejian areas, making it clear that he would use force to fight against Gongsun Zhan.

Doing so just gave Gongsun Zhan, who wanted to fight, a reason, and immediately led 40,000 troops to Zhuo County, preparing to compete with Yuan Shao.

At the same time, Yuan Shao did not forget Han Cheng, the remnant of the Han family, who owned a county, although he only had a county and a role like a small shrimp, he also sent the general Han Meng to lead an army of 15,000 to attack Changshan County. He didn't want to occupy Changshan County, but only wanted to fight with Gongsun Zhan, and Han Cheng didn't want to bring his troops out to make trouble.
