In October of the first year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, Pei Qing's Tianshui Changshi Yang Fu and Sima Jiang Yi led an army of 3,000 to break through Ma Chao's old nest Wudu to argue, and repelled Ma Chao's counterattack, Ma Chao had no choice but to lead two or three thousand remnants to flee to Hanzhong, and delivered a speech, all the territory of Liangzhou, the hometown of the Han Dynasty, belonged to Pei Qing's rule.

Afterwards, Yang Fu was worshiped as the Taishou of Wudu, and the general of the Qiang Zhonglang, Jiang Yu was appointed as the Taishou of Yingchuan, the general of Fenwu Zhonglang, and Yang Teng worshiped the commander of the cavalry with the meritorious officer of the assistant, and at the same time allowed the Baimaqiang people to move away from their homeland, and divided the Yinping Road in the north of the Guanghan subject country into Yinping County, and ordered Yang Teng to lead the troops to enter Yinping directly through the defense area of Baimaqiang. It is more than 600 miles from Baimaqiang to Wudu, and more than 1,000 miles to Wudu, and the environment of Yinping is not worse than Wudu, and it can avoid Ma Chao's revenge, Yang Teng is naturally a hundred willing, so he is very grateful to Pei Qing.

However, the only fly in the ointment is that the current Yinping is nominally under the jurisdiction of Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang, Yang Teng's entry into Yinping is not what Liu Zhang is willing to see, but now Shuzhong is catching up with the civil strife in Yizhou, the generals Lou Fa, Shen Mi, Gan Ning and others are acting under the instigation of Liu Biao, Liu Zhang is busy quelling the civil strife, plus the Guanghan vassal country is a mixed area of Qiang and Hu, and the government generally adopts a policy of restraint and rarely intervenes directly, so this is an opportunity for Yang Teng, plus Yang Teng has a high status among the Qiang people, The clansmen's combat effectiveness is extremely strong, and Yang Teng has the edict of the imperial court, and the division is famous, and after months of struggle, he really gained a firm foothold in Yinping.

After pacifying Ma Chao, everything calmed down, Pei Qing readjusted the territory of Yongliang Erzhou, with Jing Zhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi, Right Fufeng, Anding, Beidi, Tianshui, Longxi, Wudu counties as Yongzhou, its place of governance is in Chang'an, Pei Qing appointed himself as the pastor of Yongzhou, worshiped Wang Cang as the long history, responsible for daily government affairs, based in Chang'an, Chen Zhi as Sima, General Annan, Fake Festival, responsible for the military, stationed in Tianshui Ji County, to strengthen the deterrence of Hanzhong and Bashu in the southern region.

At the same time, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, Jincheng, and Xiping counties were assigned to Liangzhou, and the subject country of Juyan was changed to Xihai County, which also belonged to Liangzhou, and Cheng Gongying was still the history of Liangzhou, so that Cheng Gongying's direct jurisdiction of the territory was several less counties, and at the same time, because the four counties of Hexi were directly guarded by Wei Yan, the governor of Xizhou, so the military power in Cheng Gongying's hands was also greatly weakened, but Cheng Gongying did not have the slightest complaint, and still worked diligently to do his Liangzhou assassin history.

Pei Qing was still relieved after hearing the news, after all, the loyalty of 200 is one thing, and the mentality of a general is another.

After arranging all this, Pei Qing ordered the requisition of grain, grass and troops, and he quietly strengthened the troops in Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Bingzhou, Hedong, Hanoi, Hongnong and other places, and at the same time stepped up the training of tens of thousands of standing troops in Chang'an, the purpose of which was actually obvious, that is, actively preparing for a full-scale war against Cao Cao.

Because just a month ago, Cao Cao's army was victorious, captured Yuan Shao's Julu Kingdom, Anping Kingdom, Changshan Kingdom and other places, Yuan Shao's territory was only left in Zhongshan Kingdom, Hejian Kingdom and Bohai Kingdom These three counties, Yuan Shao died of illness in the Bohai Kingdom, and did not designate an heir when he was dying, and everyone wanted to set up Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan as the heir, but Yuan Shao's strategists and Feng Ji were not loved by Yuan Tan, and they were worried that they would be persecuted by Yuan Tan, so they colluded with Yuan Shao's wife Liu and preemptively supported Yuan Shao's youngest son Yuan Shang.

At this time, Yuan Shang was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and his mind was not yet mature, where did he know how to be a monarch? As soon as he came up, he was naturally a great feudal hero, and he was a judge for Jizhou, and he was a servant in Jizhou, and he entrusted all political affairs to the two of them, and these two people naturally tried their best to exclude dissidents, and the two generals Yan Liangwen were still fighting bloodily on the front line at this time to resist the invasion of the Cao army, but they did not get a reward at all.

Others, such as Xin Ping and Guo Tu, instigated Yuan Tan to go with them out of the town because they were afraid of being persecuted by Feng Ji and the trial match who were not in harmony with them, so that although the Yuan family seemed to be continuing, it had been divided into three parts, one part was headed by Yuan Shang, who inherited Yuan Shao's main force, and his subordinates were matched with Feng Ji and others to guard the Bohai Kingdom; the other part is headed by Yuan Tan, under the command of Xin Ping, Guo Tu and others, guarding the Hejian Kingdom; There are also some high-ranking cadres who stayed in Zhongshan Kingdom, and there are generals such as Yan Liangwen and Chou who assist him.

In fact, for Gao Gan's cousin, both Yuan Tan and Gao Shang are desperately trying to win over, because Zhongshan still has 20,000 troops left, and there are also Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhao Zhao, Guo Yuan and other generals, who can win the support of Gao Gan, whose strength is much stronger, but they are only trying to win over Gao Gan, and they are not directly wooing Yan Liang and Wen Chou, because they know that these two are old, have great merit, and have a rebellious temperament, if they are allowed to return, I am afraid that the status of the four major strategists will not be guaranteed.

Because Yuan Shao is dead, and his two sons are still separating, it is not difficult for Cao Cao to completely occupy Jizhou, and in this case, Cao Cao heard the news of Pei Qing's conquest of Wudu, and knew that Ma Chao must be difficult to support, in order to avoid Pei Qing from seizing Luoyang, and at the same time in order to further strengthen his control over the imperial court, he forcibly forced the little emperor to move the capital to Yecheng.

Cao Cao didn't expect his move to give Pei Qing an excuse, Pei Qing immediately used this as a reason, accusing Cao Cao of holding the Son of Heaven hostage, ill-intentioned, so power and rape, everyone was punished, and then ordered a full-scale attack on Cao Cao's various places, so that Yuzhou Thorn Shi Lusu led the army to attack Chenliu County and Jiyin State, Xuzhou Thorn Shi Lu Wen led the army to attack Beihai State, and Zhou Thorn Shi Pei Qian led the army to attack Changshan State, Hedong Taishou Xu Huang and Hongnong Taishou Xu Rong marched into Luoyang, Hanoi Taishou Xun Yu led the army to attack Yecheng, he personally led an army of 50,000 from Chang'an, out of Tongguan, down Luoyang, and then cross the river into Hanoi, go straight to Yecheng, and welcome back the Son of Heaven.

Cao Cao smiled bitterly when he heard the news, he knew that now Pei Qing had made all preparations and was determined to unify the Central Plains, because the surrounding forces had basically been swept away, although Liu Biao was majestic in Jingxiang, but he had no ambitions, and he had always been friendly with Pei Qing, Hanzhong Zhang Lu was weak, and he was at war with Liu Zhang, it was too late to protect himself, let alone attack Guanzhong, as for Jiangdong Sun Ce, although he had the ability to attack Pei Qing's Yangzhou, but he was now mainly fighting with Liu Biao under the banner of avenging his father to seize Changsha and Jiangxia and other places, Remove Liu Biao's threat.

Therefore, Pei Qing's border is completely stable, and then he naturally aims the spearhead of the war at himself, especially at the current time when he is about to destroy the Yuan clan in Hebei, his attack is equivalent to picking fruits, and his own hard work is really equivalent to marrying someone.
