In April of the third year of Chuping, Situ Wang Yun and Lu Buhe murdered Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo once served as the assassin of the state, and Lu Bu was hired as a state official because of Xiaowu at that time, Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu already knew each other, and the relationship was not ordinary.

Dong Zhuo also knows very well that Lu Bu is greedy for money and forgetful, so he asked Lu Bu to kill Ding Yuan.

Otherwise, Ding Yuan treated Lu Bu so well, how could others induce Lu Bu to kill Ding Yuan for no reason.

If you try to induce Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to kill Liu Bei, is it possible?

Later, Wang Yun induced Lu Bu to kill Dong Zhuo as well.

Dong Zhuo once threw Lu Bu with a halberd because he didn't like it, but fortunately, Lu Bu dodged it with good skills, if he was just average and couldn't dodge, then he would be injured if he didn't die.

At the same time, Lu Bu had an affair with Dong Zhuo's maidservant, afraid of the East Window incident.

Usually if he was not satisfied, he threw away his halberd, if Dong Zhuo knew about this matter, then Lu Bu would not be killed.

Wang Yun saw this precisely because he dared to murder Dong Zhuo with Lu Bu.

After Dong Zhuo died, Li Dao and Guo Yan led their troops to besiege Chang'an, and Lü Bu was defeated and fled from Chang'an.

Li Wei's army robbed Chang'an, and the people in the city were killed, and the dead were in disarray.

At this time, millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans invaded Yanzhou, first killing Zheng Sui, the prime minister of Rencheng, and then attacking the border of Dongping County.

Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, came to Bao Xin to discuss, wanting to lead the troops into battle.

Bao Xin admonished: "Now there are millions of thieves, the people are afraid, and the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and the battle is difficult to win. Although there are many thieves, they are accompanied by old and young women and children, and they have no baggage, but they are robbed everywhere. It is better for us to hold on to the city first, they will not be able to fight, and it will be difficult to attack. When it is tired, we will attack its key points with elite soldiers, and it can be broken. ”

Liu Dai said angrily: "The thief is a rabble, I will attack it with an elite army, why be afraid of the thief." ”

Then he led 20,000 cavalry to fight, but there were too many Yellow Turban Thieves, and they had participated in many battles, and there were many elite thieves.

Liu Dai took the lead and rushed in front of the battle, but was unfortunately killed by thieves.

The soldiers saw that Liu Dai had been killed in battle, and the thieves were brave, so they did not dare to fight again, and all fled back to Changyi.

When the Yellow Turban entered Yanzhou, Li Xian already knew that Liu Dai was going to die in battle, and he originally wanted to propose to Cao Cao to persuade the state officials to welcome Cao Cao as a pastor.

But when I think about it, I don't know the people of the state well, so don't go and be self-defeating.

It's better to give the credit to Chen Gong and let him be a lobbyist.

After all, Chen Gong is a native of Yanzhou and famous.

So he didn't know what to do, and only practiced as usual, waiting for Cao Cao's order to let him raise troops to attack the Yellow Turbans.

After Chen Gong knew that Liu Dai was killed in battle, he said to Cao Cao: "Now that Yanzhou has no owner, and the court is in chaos, the king's order is cut off. Gong is willing to go to the state, with the king of the Ming Mansion as the pastor, and lead the people of the state to refuse to ask for the yellow turban thief. ”

Chen Gong is a native of Dongwuyang, Dongjun, and after Cao Cao was the Taishou of Dongjun, he took Chen Gong as the county official.

Cao Cao was naturally willing, so he sent Chen Gong to Changyi as a lobbyist.

When Chen Gong arrived in Changyi, he said to Yanzhou Beijia and Zhizhong: "If there is chaos today, there is no herdsman in the state, Caodong County has the ambition to secure the country and the ability to calm the people." If Cao Dong County is regarded as the state pastor, then Yanzhou will be able to be safe. ”

Bao Xin also said: "Indeed, in the past, Cao Mengde was not afraid of Dong Zhuo's strong soldiers and attacked, although he was defeated by Xingyang, he was not discouraged. Now he attacked the Black Mountain thieves in Dongjun, beheaded more than 10,000 prisoners, and the county was peaceful. If he is welcomed as the state pastor, he will be able to save Yanzhou from chaos, hit the yellow scarf and keep the people safe. ”

The imperial court did not send an assassin to Shi, and there were local clans such as Chen Gong and Bao Xin who recommended it, and Beijia and Zhizhong also agreed to welcome Cao Cao as the state pastor.

So Bao Xin and the state official Wan Qian came to Dongjun to welcome Cao Cao to Changyi to take over as Yanzhou pastor.

Cao Cao's Yanzhou pastor at this time was only elected by the local government and had not yet been recognized by the imperial court.

It was not until October of the first year of Xingping that Emperor Xian officially worshiped Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou.

At this time, Yuan Shao also recommended Cao Cao to the court as the pastor of Yanzhou, and Cao Cao is now the younger brother of Yuan Shao's camp.

In fact, at the same time, after the imperial court got the news of Liu Dai's death, it also sent Jin Shang as the pastor of Yanzhou.

However, when Jin Shang came to Yanzhou, Cao Cao had already moved into Changyi and exercised the duties of Yanzhou pastor, so Jin Shang had no choice but to go to Nanyang Yuan Shu.

Cao Cao appointed Xiahoudun as the Taishou of Dongjun and led 3,000 troops in Baima County.

He took his generals, advisers and family members, and led 15,000 soldiers and horses to Changyi.

Li Xian also led 2,000 men and horses with him.

Cao Cao became the pastor of Yanzhou, and when he had great power, he had great responsibility.

The yellow scarves are chaotic in the state, and this must be beaten.

But the number of yellow turbans is millions, and Liu Dai was killed in the battle before, which shows that this yellow turban thief cannot be taken lightly.

Because there are too many yellow turban thieves, there are yellow turbans everywhere in Dongping, but many of them are homeless people who have been coerced.

Cao Cao led 20,000 horses to camp in the north of Shouzhang.

The scouts sent out couldn't find where the main battle team of the Yellow Turbans was.

Cao Cao was furious and wanted to investigate the Yellow Turban enemy by himself.

Li Xian remembered that in history, Cao Cao would encounter the Yellow Turban attack when he went this time, and Bao Xin would also die here.

He immediately dissuaded Cao Cao and said: "There are many Yellow Turban thieves, and the thieves are also fierce, and the general must not be in danger." You can go to find out the enemy's situation in person, and the general can wait for the oblique news here. ”

Xun Yu also persuaded: "If you don't say it directly, the general must not be in danger, if you don't break the camp, you can let him lead the broken camp to investigate." ”

Cao Cao said: "Now that the people of the state have pushed me as the lord of the state, and the people are in turmoil, how can I sit in peace and avoid thieves. ”

Li Xian knew that Cao Cao had already decided, and it would not be good to persuade him again.

But he wanted to tell Bao Xin not to go: "In this case, Zixiao must be allowed to lead a thousand cavalry and a thousand broken camp guards." General Bao didn't want to go. ”

Li Xian felt that with Cao Ren's 1,000 cavalry and his own camp-breaking guards, even if he couldn't defeat the Yellow Turban thieves, it shouldn't be difficult to break through and escape.

How do you know that Bao Xin listened to it and said angrily: "What did General Li say? Is faith a person who fears death? I will go with me. ”

Li Xianzhi regretted it, hating himself for being self-defeating, but if he didn't say it, he would go the same.

As long as Cao Cao goes, it will be difficult for Bao Xin not to go.

Since it is inevitable that it is difficult to avoid it, we can only try to protect them as much as possible.

Yellow turban thieves are now mainly in the area of Shouzhangdong, where millions of people are scattered in the countryside, and yellow turbans are everywhere.

The broken camp led by Li Xian was infantry, Cao Cao had Cao Ren led a thousand cavalry to escort him, and he was more courageous and walked fast, and Li Xian couldn't keep up with his soldiers.

When the ordinary Yellow Turban refugees saw Cao Cao's cavalry coming, they fled one after another.

Cao Cao rushed all the way, but suddenly saw a large camp in front of him.

It turned out that this was the main combat battalion of the Yellow Turbans.

The Yellow Turban Thief also knew that the enemy general was coming, and thought that the enemy cavalry was coming to attack him, so he hurriedly gathered his people to attack.

Suddenly, tens of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves surged out, and soon surrounded Cao Cao and the cavalry.

Cao Cao didn't expect to break into the Yellow Turban Thief's camp so quickly.

Cao Ren led the cavalry to protect Cao Cao's conflict.

These Yellow Turban thieves have had a lot of siege combat experience, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than those Black Mountain thieves.

Rao is Cao Ren's cavalry is powerful, and it is difficult to break out of the encirclement for a while.

Cao Cao and the others have also been scattered by the thieves.

He swung his knife and slashed all the way, killing more than a dozen people one after another.

He saw that Bao Xin was injured not far away, and hurriedly rushed over.

These yellow scarves can't be killed no matter how they are killed, and there are more and more people surrounding.

Cao Cao had just cut down one person in front, and several people in the back slashed at Cao Cao.

Seeing this, Bao Xin, who was next to him, hurriedly slapped his horse over and opened the knife that slashed at Cao Cao.

But he himself was struck and fell under his horse, where he was immediately hacked to death by the Yellow Turbans.

Cao Cao was furious, roared in a burst of slashing, and cut down more than a dozen people.

At this time, the broken camp led by Li Xian was also killed.

Kill a way directly from the periphery and kill straight to Cao Cao's side.

He hurriedly protected Cao Cao, and led the broken camp to fight out of the encirclement.

Cao Ren also led the rest of the cavalry to follow and kill.

In this battle, Bao Xin was killed, Cao Ren's cavalry killed more than 500 people, and Li Xian's broken camp also killed more than 200 people.

Cao Cao regretted not listening to Li Xian's advice and said: "I hate not listening to everyone's advice, so that Bao Xin died in battle, and my sin is also." ”
