Regarding Han Fu's surrender of Jizhou, Cao Cao originally wanted to get involved, but under the persuasion of Xi Zhong, he curbed this idea in time.

It has been half a year since Xi Zhong came under Cao Cao's command, and he has a very thorough understanding of the general trend of the world, and his conversation with Xun and others made him realize that Cheng Yun must be the strongest prince in the next ten years or even decades, so if he wants to exhibit, he can't go west, and he has to find a way to fight for territory with others.

Fighting for territory is a very test of people's diplomatic wisdom, and the tiger must be the most inferior operation when fighting for territory, so we must pick up soft persimmons and pinch them, like Cao Cao's army, a wandering army, we must find the softest persimmons, occupy a small piece of territory to slowly develop, and we must not find Yuan Shao Chengyun, a prince who will soon or even control a state, to provoke.

So Cao Cao could only hold on to Xinzhong's thoughts and wait for the opportunity slowly, he was already impatient, and the opportunity finally came.

After Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao, relying on his position as the assassin of Yanzhou, he sent his subordinates to serve as the Taishou of Dongjun, Cao Cao didn't get anything, so he could only be stationed nearby to recruit and train troops, temporarily attached to Yuan Shao.

Coincidentally, the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Sun Qing Wang Dang and others led the troops to invade Dongjun, Wang Qiu could not resist, could only abandon the city and fled, Cao Cao's troops were because of the lack of training opportunities for many new recruits, so they engaged them, and the Black Mountain Yellow Turban was beaten back to Zhao County, Yuan Shao saw that Cao Cao was still able to fight, so he played him as the Taishou of Dongjun, and planted nails for him in the east of Sili to hinder Cheng Yun's exhibition.

Not only the Yellow Turbans of Montenegro are rampant, but the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou are also rampant, breaking cities everywhere in Qingzhou, snatching grain stocks, Kong Rong lost his general Wu Anguo, and there are no generals under his command who can use it, so it is very difficult to fight against the Yellow Turban Army, and he can only ask his ally Gongsun Zan for help.

It may be a problem of physiognomy, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu actually divided the princes of the world into two opposing sides, one side is Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Zhang Miaozhang and others are among them; On the other side, it is Yuan Shu, and Kong Rong Tao Qian Gongsun Zan is in it. For example, Liu Dai, Liu Biao, Liu Yu, and other imperial relatives, or Sun Jian, Ma Teng and Han Sui, who are extremely strong and do not want to be manipulated by others, are between the two sides and do not participate in the struggle between them.

Gongsun Chan is definitely someone who can help, he is actually a very simple person, whoever is willing to take refuge in me, I will protect whomever I want, and whoever has bullied me, I will retaliate against whomever I want.

So he sent his generals Tian Kai Shan Jing and Liu Bei brothers, with 20,000 foot horses, to Qingzhou to rescue Kong Rong, Kong Rong was overjoyed when he heard the letter, and he couldn't hold out, just waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Qingzhou Yellow Turban does not have enough siege equipment, all rely on the ladder to support all the siege, the loss is very large, and some of the losses can not be afforded, all the cities in Qingzhou are strictly guarded, there is no chance to steal the city, the leader Cheng gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Let's go to the Black Mountain Army!" ”

So the 300,000 troops of the Yellow Turban crossed the Yellow River north and invaded the Bohai Sea in an attempt to merge with the Montenegrin Army, but the Bohai Sea had been abandoned by Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zhan's troops occupied it

Fighting hard, Gongsun Chan led his subordinates to ambush in the valley south of Dongguang, fought the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and beheaded more than 30,000 people, Guan Cheng did not know how many people Gongsun Chan had, and when he saw this, he led the army to abandon the baggage and retreat south to the Yellow River, preparing to cross the river and return to Beihai.

Tian Kaishan listened to Liu Bei's suggestion, led people to ambush along the Yellow River, and waited until the Yellow Turban Army crossed the river to attack halfway through, and once again defeated the Yellow Turban Army, beheaded tens of thousands, captured more than 70,000 people, and seized countless cars and armor property.

Gongsun Zan was proud, but there was bad news, his younger brother Gongsun Yue died in the battle with Yuan Shao's general Zhou Ang, and he was immediately furious, "My brother's death must be recorded on his Yuan Shao's head!" ”

Guan Jing hesitated a little, "Yuan Benchu is a member of the Yuan family, Yuan Highway's brother, is it appropriate for us to directly tear his face and attack him?" Will it arouse Yuan Highway's disgust? ”

"What's the matter, my brother is dead, and his brother Yuan Highway can't die?" Gongsun Chan was furious, "He Yuan Benchu originally promised me Jizhou didn't give me a slight, and now he dares to let his subordinates harm my brother's life, if I don't send troops, the world will say that my Gongsun Chan is cowardly and has no courage!" Don't say it, I must send troops! ”

Rejecting Guan Jing's advice, Gongsun Zhan sent troops to the Panhe River, ready to wait for an opportunity to retaliate against Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao had just reached a consensus with Yi, recovered Yi's Xianden camp, and took Yi to crusade against the Yellow Turban in Montenegro, when he heard that Gongsun Chan raised troops to prepare to recruit him, he was very worried, and followed the advice of the newly recruited Jizhou celebrity Tian Toyota Yuanhao, and handed over the Bohai Taishou Seal to Gongsun Zhan's younger brother Gongsun Fan to show his sincerity.

But the relationship between the brothers of the Gongsun family is very good, and Gongsun Fan didn't want to let him go so easily, Yuan Benchu, got the seal, and decisively took the Bohai troops to Gongsun Zhan, helping Gongsun Chan attack the Yellow Turban Army in Xuzhou, Qingzhou.

Gongsun Zhan's army became stronger and stronger, stationed at Jieqiao to suppress Yuan Shao, and appointed Yan Gang as Jizhou Mu, Tian Kai as Qingzhou Mu, Shan Jing as Yanzhou Mu, and configured the county guard county order.

The location of Jieqiao, next to Guangzong and Julu, is the throat of eastern Jizhou, Yuan Shao, the Jizhou pastor, has been dealing with the Yellow Turban of Montenegro in the western part of Jizhou for a period of time, where is the time to pay attention to the situation in the east?

was occupied by Gongsun Zhan Jie Qiao, Yuan Shao was like a fish in his throat, there was no way but to fight, but the war was fought on both sides, and Yuan Shao, who had only 100,000 soldiers under his command, was not sure, after all, half of the 100,000 were either newly recruited or left by Han Fu, and he couldn't be entrusted with a heavy task at all.

Under his command, he was willing to take 20,000 soldiers to garrison Guangzong to resist Gongsun Zhan's soldiers. He was even willing to make a military order for this. The trial was not allowed to be reused under Han Fu, and was promoted by Yuan Shao, and there was a spirit of carrying the jade dragon to die for the king in his chest, and Gongsun Zan attacked it, which was a good opportunity to show his ability and loyalty.

Xu You has an old friendship with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Cheng Yun and others, relying on the old and selling the old is a common thing, even Yuan Shao's mastermind Xun Chen is very little restrained to him, and he is more respectful, only the honest trial and the old-fashioned Tian Feng will criticize him, every time he accepts bribes from others, he is reported, annoyed him for a long time, and when he sees that he is willing to receive the military order, he quickly pouts a few words, expecting him to be dealt with by military law because he can't help Gongsun Zhan.

Tian Feng is not a good friend of the trial, he can only say that he knows each other, and naturally he will not help the trial to speak, but the question now is not whether the trial match will make a military order, but whether the trial should take the 20,000 people under his command to death, so he spoke out against it, "It is taboo for soldiers to start a war on two fronts, our supply line is long, and there are few soldiers under our command, and it is not enough to win a complete victory against the whole road, how can we divide the troops?" ”

Frustration is one of the few people under Han Fu who stayed and didn't go to Cheng Yun, and nodded when he heard this, "Gongsun Chan is a big problem, but the Black Mountain Yellow Turban is a disease of ringworm, we might as well make peace with the Black Mountain Yellow Turban, and even make a deal with the Black Mountain Yellow Turban, so as to lead to the east and transfer the pressure of dealing with them to others." ”

Xin Bi Xin Ping is all from Jizhou, and he is in the same group as Fu Zhu, and he joined forces to resist the foreign Xu Youguo Tu Fengji and others, all nodded in agreement with Fu Zhu's words, and even volunteered to persuade the Black Mountain Yellow Turban.

Although Tian Feng is also from Jizhou, the two do not form a party or engage in personal gain, they are upright and strong, and they can't tolerate sand in their eyes, and they are unwilling to agree when they hear that they want to make peace with the thieves, and they feel that whether they fight with Gongsun Zan or not, they should not let go of the Black Mountain Yellow Turban.

Guo Tu Fengji heard that Tian Feng was so cooperative, and he was very happy in his heart, so he hurriedly responded, whether he was right or not, he would just be right with you first.

Xun Chen shook his head secretly, and Guo Jia couldn't help complaining when he saw it, "Ben Chu Gong, this person, I only thought of emulating Corporal Lixian of Duke Zhou, but I didn't think that the reasonable appointment of talents was the most important thing. ”

Seeing that Xun Chen didn't speak, Guo Jia continued to speak venomously, "He has a resolute face and a serious expression, but he is very short of courage and courage, and he likes to listen to others give him advice, but when he should make a decisive decision, he hesitates, is reluctant to dedicate himself to doing big things, and chooses to retreat when Cheng Wenying can't support it immediately; Seeing the small interests but desperate to seize them, it was enough to give a Yangcheng to Yuan Shu Gongsun Zhan, and he had to let Zhou Ang defend it, which caused the Gongsun family to have this kind of insoluble grudge with him. ”

"A wise man knows how to choose his lord wisely." Guo Jia patted Xun Chen's shoulder, "Obviously, he Yuan Ben couldn't be my lord at the beginning." ”

So he went out decisively, without attracting the attention of Yuan Shao's people, Xun Chen sighed, he just tried, the Xun family's best ally has been found, what are you worried about now? Let's play soy sauce, just don't lose too ugly.

"Don't make any noise! I'm going to convince the Black Mountain Yellow Turban today, let's prepare immediately to deal with Gongsun Zhan! ”
