Next, Chen Gong assigned Song Xian to lead 5,000 men and horses to attack Xihe County, while in addition to Wei Yue, Lü Bu, Chen Gong and the remaining generals led the remaining soldiers who were trapped in the camp and all the Tuntian soldiers in Hedong County to attack Taiyuan County.

The reason why this important task was handed over to Song Xian, on the one hand, was because Hou Cheng was Lu Bu's fellow villager, on the other hand, Taiyuan County was an important town in the state, and secondly, the county controlled several of the eight paths of Taihang, and if Taiyuan County was taken as soon as possible, it would be possible to take Yanmen County and completely block Yuan Shao from the Taihang Eight Paths.

This is also the internal politics of a warlord, Chen Gong also has to take care of Lu Bu's ideas when assigning tasks, besides, Xihe County itself is not too important a county, and its Taishou is not very famous, and the difficulty of taking it down is not high, if Song Xian can't take it down, his status in Lu Bu's army in the future will be worrying.

At this time, Xu Huang, another general in Lü Bu's army, also received the task, he led his troops to attack Shangjun in the Hetao region, and the person who replaced him in defending the area east of the Beiluo River in Zuo Fengyi County was Hou Cheng. At this time, part of the area north of Shangjun had been occupied by the Xianbei people, so in this military operation launched by Lü Bu's army to attack and merge the state, Xu Huang faced military pressure second only to the Battle of Taiyuan.

At this time, the history of the state assassin was Gao Gan.

Gao Gan, the character Yuancai, Chen Liuyu people, is a famous family, born in Chen Liugao's family, his father was once the Taishou Gao of Shu County, and more importantly, he is Yuan Shao's nephew, and he is one of the main planners of Yuan Shao's trick to seize Jizhou from Han Fu.

In order to reward his merits and let his cronies control more territory, Yuan Shao appointed Gao Gan as the assassin of the state.

At that time, Yuan Shao's reputation in the world was in full swing, and the senior cadres succeeded in ascending to the throne without much effort, forcing the original assassin to leave.

However, Gao Gan has only been in office for a year or two, in this era of the troubled grass head king, because Yuan Shao wants to gather heavy troops to deal with the fierce rival Gongsun Zhan, therefore, he can only master the land of Taiyuan County until now, and the rest of the counties, the north of Taiyuan was almost captured by the Huns, such as Wuyuan County, Yunzhong County and Dingxiang County, and the side and the east, each with its own Taishou, is only superficially subordinate, such as Shangdang County and Xihe County.

Therefore, on the day that Cao Cao spread the news that Emperor Han Xian had moved out of Luoyang City, Lü Bu's army immediately sent troops to attack Taiyuan County, Xihe County and Shangdang County with lightning speed.

Lu Bu sent troops this time, although the total number of soldiers did not have an advantage, but after this period of sand and training, the soldiers were strong and strong, and Lu Bu's army still had an advantage that high-ranking cadres did not have-righteousness.

Lu Bu had in his hand the seal letter officially issued by the imperial court as the governor of the state and the taishou of the counties of the state, and the senior cadres served as the assassin of the state, which was only appointed by Yuan Shao himself.

This seal letter is useless to Gaogan and Taiyuan County, but it is very useful to the current Taishou of Xihe County and Shangdang County.

Zhang Liao and Song Xian took Shangdang County and Xihe County very smoothly, but the counties in the northern part of Xihe County were also occupied by the Huns, because Lü Bu only let him occupy the county administration of Xihe County in advance, so Song Xian did not dare to send troops to attack the Huns.

At this time, Taiyuan County's troops were still quite strong, and Gao Gan himself also had a certain ability to govern, but when he heard that Lu Bu personally led the troops to attack Taiyuan County, he didn't dare to lead the troops out of the city to resist, so he could only choose to defend himself in the infant city, and sent a fast horse to Yuan Shao for help.

However, Gao Gan overestimated the defensive ability of his generals and overestimated the loyalty of his soldiers. You must know that what Gao Gan is about to face is the most elite army and its generals among the princes of the Han Dynasty at that time, Gao Shun and his trapped camp.

In history, in Xuzhou, in the face of the trapped camp, even Cao Cao's general Xiahoudun was defeated and lost an eye.

When attacking Jinyang City, Chen Gong adopted the strategy of attacking the west from the east, he concentrated most of the generals and all the other soldiers except the camp on the south wall of Jinyang City, while Gao Shun secretly led the remaining 2,000 camps to the west city wall and went down with a drum.

However, the strength of Lü Bu's army was limited after all, and it was impossible to besiege all of Jinyang City, and when the city was broken, Gao Gan fled from the north gate. Unwilling, he led the remnants to Yanmen County, where he prepared to rely on Yanmen County to resist the attack of Lu Bu's army, while waiting for reinforcements sent by Yuan Shao.

This time, the small universe of Chen Gong broke out, and he immediately decided to let Gao Shunshu lead all the soldiers in the camp, gather all the war horses of Lu Bu's army, and chase all the way along the route of Gao Gan's escape.

Before Gao Gan could reach Yanmen County, he was defeated by Gao Shun's blow, and Gao Shun forced Yanmen County to surrender. So far, Taihang Bashan, except for the flaw of Hanoi County.

There is no way, publicize Yu Lu Bu's grace, but also Yu Han Xian's Emperor is kind, don't look at him now he is just a small Hanoi County Taishou, but he has a lot of titles, Marquis of Jinyang, General Anguo, and Da Sima. Lu Bu really didn't want to move him at this time, but Zhang Yang didn't have much ability, and he was afraid of Yuan Shao's power and prestige.

In short, Zhang Yang in Hanoi County is like a rat in the bellows, he may be pressed into meat sauce on both sides at any time, and he himself does not even have the ability to resist at all, to the left or to the right, and the next thing is to make Zhang Yang very difficult.

At the same time, in Luoyang County, Jin Jue welcomed back a good news and a bad news.

The people who went to Xinzheng County to arrest people all came back alive, but the target Yang Pei was lost, Jin Jue did not blame these people, he said to the people involved in the operation very firmly: "You can rest assured, within three months, Yang Pei will either be killed by Lu Bujun, or Lu Bu will be sent to me." ”

Yang Pei has no other skills, strictly speaking, he is a cool official, and Lu Bu's subordinates, especially the generals, are used to being careless, let Yang Pei be an official in his jurisdiction, not to mention others, even Lu Bu and Chen Gong may not be able to bear it.

Cao Cao used him to deter the nobles of Xu Du, but in the end, he used an elegant and elegant advance, and dismissed Yang Pei from his official position, although the knife was not killed, but he actually died of starvation in the end.

This is how the monarchs of the past have dealt with the cool officials who are loyal and daring to do things, or the strong commanders.

Cool officials and strong orders are never so easy to be.

And the good news is Liu Shan.

During this trip to Jingzhou, he not only completed almost all the tasks assigned to him by Jin Jue, but also unexpectedly brought back two generals for Jin Jue - Wei Yan and Fu Tong.
