Late 190 A.D.

Soon after Lu Bu's disappearance, Jia Xu was assassinated, and Bingzhou quickly stabilized the situation under the auspices of Tian Feng and others, and after many investigations, the identity of the assassin could not be found, and his suspicious eyes pointed at Dong Zhuo.

But even if the vast majority of people in Bingzhou didn't know, Dong Zhuo's suspicion was ruled out at the earliest: first, Bingzhou attached great importance to intelligence work, and Dong Zhuo had just subdued Han Sui at that time, and was also carrying out the complicated matters of internal rectification, so it was unlikely that he had too much energy to carry out such an assassination; Second, most of the people who fought with the assassins were members of the secret group, and Dong Zhuojun's known secret force was only the Flying Bear Guard, but it should not have such clever skills; Third, although the assassin is not good, but obviously not carefully planned in advance, otherwise it is impossible to achieve such a result, you must know that before this, Mo said that it was a state group, and this kind of assassination of the head of the whole history of the Han Dynasty rarely appeared, so the prevention of such behavior is not particularly important, in this case to achieve such results is not brilliant, Jia Xu's death is largely due to coincidence, Dong Zhuo's strategist Li Ru never made this kind of anticlimactic plan.

Therefore, after combining these reasons, Dong Zhuo was excluded at the earliest.

However, to Tian Feng's surprise, now is the perfect time to attack and merge with the state, but the Liangzhou army that is close at hand is not moving, so Tian Feng is a little confused, and while he is waiting for the battle, he is carrying out various matters step by step.

In the blink of an eye, two months have passed, and this year's snow disaster in Bingzhou and Liangzhou is particularly serious, and it took two months of hard work for Gao Shun's trapped camp to enter the mountain range that disappeared before Lu Bu, but at this time it has entered 191 years.

In the second year of the first peace (191 A.D.), more than 100,000 people such as the black mountain thief Bai Huan, Yu Poison, and Zheng Gu were slightly Wei County and Dong County, and the East County was too protective of Wang Hu, and Cao Gong led troops into Dong County, and hit Bai around Puyang and broke it.

Before Zhang Yan's troops returned to Lu Bu, there was a small number of people under the leadership of Bai Huan, Yu Poison, and Zheng Gu invaded Dongjun and other places, and the original team of tens of thousands later developed into hundreds of thousands, but in the end it was defeated by Cao Cao in Puyang, Bai Huan and Mu Gu died on the spot, only Yu Poison led a small number of troops to break out of the siege and defect to Bingzhou.

After Cao Cao exterminated Bai Huan and others, his prestige was greatly enhanced.

At this time, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army made great progress, broke several counties in Yanzhou, and beheaded Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou. Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin and others welcomed Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou. Cao Cao and Bao Xin joined forces to attack the Yellow Turbans, and Bao Xin was killed in battle.

Cao Cao led the troops to 'set up strange ambushes and fight day and night', and finally broke the Yellow Turban Army. Then a total of more than 300,000 soldiers were obtained, with a population of more than 1 million, Cao Cao collected its elite and formed an army, called Qingzhou soldiers. For a time, Cao Cao even occupied Qingqing, Yan Erzhou, self-ordered Yanzhou herd, riding generals military, Cao Cao's power skyrocketed, and there were Xi Zhicai, Cheng Yu, Chen Ji, Chen Qun and other strategists, Wu had Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan and other brave generals to assist, but also recently subdued Zang Ba and others who fell into the grass in Mount Tai.

After occupying Qing and Yan, Cao Cao vigorously developed the people's livelihood, imitated Lu Bu's Tuntian system, and promoted it under his rule, and issued a recruitment order, opening the door to recruit talented people regardless of their family, and many virtuous people have joined the command, including Sima Yi, the second son of Sima Fang, who was sometimes Jing Zhaoyin, went to defect.

After Dong Zhuo heard the news, he wrote to Emperor Han Xian to appoint Cao Cao as the lieutenant of Sili and record the affairs of the book, which caused an uproar in the world.

At the same time, far away in Youzhou, Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu were at odds, and in order to expand their strength, they sent troops south to attack Jizhou. Jizhou Mu Han Fu was defeated by Gongsun Zhan because of the general Pan Feng's defense against Yuan Shao, and he panicked for a while.

At this time, Yuan Shao sent lobbyists Gao Gan and Xun Chen to Yecheng. Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's nephew, and Xun Chen has a good relationship with Han Fu. They said to Han Fu: "Gongsun Chan took advantage of the victory to go south, and the counties looked at the wind and descended; Yuan Cheqi also led the troops to Yanjin, his intentions were unpredictable, and we were all worried about the general in private. ”

When Han Fu heard this, he couldn't help but gasp, and asked eagerly, "In that case, what will I do?" ”

Xun Chen didn't answer directly, but asked: "According to the general's view, how is Yuan Shao compared to being generous and benevolent?" ”

Han Fu shook his head and said, "I'm not as good as the beginning. ”

"Decision-making in the face of danger, wisdom and courage to make decisions, how is the general compared to Yuan Shao?"

Han Fu said again: "I might as well be the original. ”

"Then, the generations have been generously benevolent, so that everyone in the world has benefited, and how is the general compared to the Yuan family?"

Han Fu sighed, shook his head and said, "It's still not as good as the beginning." I am the former official of the Yuan family. ”

After asking a few questions one after another, Xun Chen said: "Gongsun Zhan led Yan and the elite of the generation, and the soldiers were irresistible; Yuan is a hero for a while, how can he stay under the general for a long time. Jizhou is a place where soldiers must fight, if Yuan and Gongsun Zan join forces and hand over troops with the general in the city, although Jizhou has money and grain, the soldiers will be wide, and the danger will come soon. The Yuan family and the general are old friends, and they have formed an alliance, and now the plan is to give Jizhou to the Yuan family. After Yuan got Jizhou, he must treat the general well. Gongsun Chan could only strike the army. At that time, the general will not only be able to gain the reputation of being virtuous, but also make the general's position as stable as Mount Tai. ”

Han Fu was cowardly by nature and lacked assertiveness, and when he heard Xun Chen say this, he was ready to agree.

Many of Han Fu's subordinates were worried, and Changshi Gengwu, Beijia Min Chun, and Zhizhong Li Li advised him: "Although Jizhou is remote, there are millions of soldiers, and the food is enough to last for ten years, while Yuan Shao is a lonely and poor army, looking up to me and snorting, just like a baby in my hands, once weaned, he will starve to death immediately, why do we want to give Jizhou to him?" ”

Han Fu said helplessly: "I am the former official of the Yuan family, and my talent is not as good as the original, and I am virtuous and virtuous, which is respected by the ancients, why do you still blindly blame it!" ”

After Pan Feng, who was stationed in Heyang, heard the news, he hurriedly galloped eastward from Mengjin, with hundreds of ships and more than 10,000 people, asking for troops to resist Yuan Shao, and Han Fu reluctantly agreed.

After learning that Pan Feng led troops back to help, Gongsun Zhan was a little apprehensive in his heart, and the raid on Jizhou was just the right time to see Pan Feng's absence, but he didn't expect Pan Feng to lead the Wushuang Army under his command to return to Yecheng in such a short period of time, and he was immediately caught off guard.

Bai Ma Yicong is a cavalryman, good at raiding on the plains, attacking the city and pulling out the village is not his fort, not to mention that the Jizhou army still has a city defense to defend, and Gongsun Zan was a little hesitant for a while, and even had some thoughts of retreating.

Gongsun Chan was drinking stuffy wine in the big tent of the Chinese army, and the news of Pan Feng's return to Yecheng made him have an abnormal headache, and he had been drinking in the army for the past few days, wanting to continue the attack, facing Pan Feng's unequaled army and the thick city wall of Yecheng, he really had no confidence, but he had to face Liu Yu's face and the cynicism of others when he returned to Youzhou, which made Gongsun Chan even more difficult to accept.

"Report ——!" Outside, a herald spoke loudly.

Gongsun Chan shook his head a little drunken and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"Report to the general, there are people outside the army who claim to be from Yuan Shao's army, and they have something important to ask to see the general!"

"Yuan Shao?" Gongsun Zhan's eyes condensed slightly, "Hurry up, please!" ”

After a short time, a scribe entered the tent: "I was engaged in Guo Tu under the tent of Yuan Shao, and I have seen Lord Gongsun." ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Guo, what is the important matter for Mr. Guo?" Gongsun Chan spoke while motioning for Guo Tu to sit down.

Guo Tu was not polite, and only after sitting down did he speak: "I heard that Pan Feng returned to Yecheng, and the lord sent me to discuss cooperation with General Gongsun. ”

"Oh? How to work together? ”

Guo Tu saw the look of anticipation in Gongsun Zhan's eyes, and knew that most of the tasks he came to this time had been completed, and he said eloquently: "The general is only worried about Pan Feng and the unequaled army under his command, and there are also male troops under the command of my lord who can match them. I wonder if the general has ever heard of Jizhou Shuangbi? ”

"This is naturally known. One of them is Pan Feng, and the other is named Ju Yi, but I heard that this person defected...... "Gongsun Zhan's eyes suddenly lit up and looked at Guo Tu.

Guo Tu nodded with a smile and said: "General Ju Yi is to abandon the darkness and surrender to my lord, and train a male division called Euphorbia for my lord, and he will also go to the camp first. This time, before coming down, my lord once said that he was willing to attack Yecheng with General Gongsun, the general attacked the city first and pretended to be defeated, Pan Feng must lead his troops to pursue, and when the general's white horse was entangled with the Wushuang Army, our army would attack halfway, and Pan Feng's Wushuang Army could be wiped out! ”

Gongsun Zhan's eyes rolled, but he sneered: "Yuan Gong is really calculating, I'm afraid that when Pan Feng is defeated and retreats, it will also be the time when my Gongsun Chan is expelled." ”

Guo Tu shook his head and said: "The general's words are wrong, my lord is the third prince of the fourth world, and he used to be the leader of the alliance to fight against Dong, how can he do such a treacherous villain's act, please rest assured." My lord promised that after the deed was completed, he would be willing to share Jizhou equally with the general. ”

"Is that true?" Although Yuan Shao has a great reputation, his current strength is not as good as Gongsun Zhan, so Gongsun Zhan is not afraid that he will regret it, and he also wants to expel Yuan Shao to occupy the land of Jizhou alone after capturing Jizhou, and he also has this strength at this time. After thinking about it for a while, Gongsun Chan nodded and said, "Just according to what Mr. said." ”

On the second day, Gongsun Chan sent troops to attack Yecheng, deliberately using some old and weak soldiers to attack, so that Pan Feng miscalculated the strength of Gongsun Zhan, and finally on the fifth day, Pan Feng couldn't help but lead the army to pursue Gongsun Zhan's rout after repelling Gongsun Zhan's siege troops, but the whole army was wiped out under the attack of Bai Ma Yi Cong and Xiandeng Camp on both sides, and Pan Feng himself was seriously injured and escaped under the desperate protection of the guards.

Han Fu was shocked when he heard the news, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and personally took the seal, credit and other things to open the city and surrender, just when Gongsun Chan was complacent, Yuan Shao's army suddenly appeared and accepted Han Fu's surrender, Gongsun Chan only knew that he was fooled at this time, and he could only retreat to Youzhou with secret resentment.

Yuan Shao took over Han Fu's territory, and at the same time pocketed all his subordinates, and immediately ordered his subordinates to find a reason to kill Han Fu, so far, Jizhou except Changshan, Zhongshan two counties, the rest fell into the hands of Yuan Shao.

Han Fu's confidant Pan Feng disappeared without a trace in the previous battle.
