After Xian Yufu led his army to capture Xuansu County and drove away the Fuyu people and the Goguryi people, he immediately sent people to persuade Gongsun Du in Liaodong.
After Gongsun Du's army withdrew from Xuansu County, it maintained a high level of alert against the Han army. Gongsun Du himself did not take the initiative to contact the Han army. When Xian Yufu's messenger arrived in Liaodong, Gongsun Du knew the attitude of the imperial court, so he hurriedly responded.
In a letter to Xian Yufu, Gongsun Du tried his best to justify his actions. In the case that the iron cavalry army of the Hu tribe entered the border county and Liaodong was surrounded on three sides, he had no choice but to compromise and make this decision in order to protect Liaodong. As for the expulsion of the rich people in Liaodong, Gongsun Du also has his own explanation, and his purpose in driving these people away is purely to preserve the vitality of Liaodong. Of course, Gongsun Du also admitted that he was guilty of the great crime of treason, and no matter how many reasons he had, he could not escape the fact that he and the Hu people joined forces to rebel.
Gongsun Du was willing to accept the punishment of the clan, but he believed that his subordinates and Liaodong soldiers were under his orders, and they were not guilty. If the court is willing to issue a pardon for them, he will immediately tie his hands to them.
Xian Yufu agreed.

Now it is pointless to check whether Gongsun Du really colluded with foreign tribes to raise troops to rebel, he wants to stabilize Liaodong immediately, and he needs to solve the affairs of Liaodong as quickly as possible at the lowest cost.
Xian Yufu reported to Jinyang with his own recital and Gongsun Du's petition form for 800 miles.
Soon, the imperial court replied and agreed to Xian Yufu's performance, but stipulated that all Liaodong officials with a rank of more than 200 stone could be exempted from the death penalty and the crime was unforgivable, and they would all be dismissed from their posts on the spot, removed from their scholars' status, and never hired.
After the holy decree was sent to Liaodong, the Liaodong people stopped doing it. They refused to accept the punishment of the imperial decree, believing that they had not committed such a great crime. The court pardoned them for their capital crimes, but removed their scholars, what is the difference between this and killing them?
The people of Liaodong rebelled, which made Xian Yufu very annoyed. He then commanded his army to cross the Liaoshui River and attack Xiangping City (present-day Liaoyang, Liaoning).
The imperial army was approaching the city, and the situation in Liaodong suddenly became tense. Gongsun Du hurriedly wrote to Xian Yufu, asking him to give himself some more time to persuade his subordinates from the perspective of long-term stability in Liaodong.
"In this way, Gongsun Du has not made a decision yet, and he is still delaying time." Li Hong said dissatisfiedly, "Does he think that we are fighting Kirby Bear now and are powerless to deal with him for the time being?" ”
"General, the soldiers of Liaodong acted on orders, and they are indeed not too guilty." Yu Peng arched his hand and persuaded, "We cannibalize each other, it will only make the enemy happy, and it will not be half beneficial to stabilize Liaodong, please think twice." ”
"The war situation will be troublesome if it drags on until winter, and the matter in Liaodong must be resolved immediately." Li Hong waved his hand resolutely and said, "Urgently tell Gongsun Du and ask him to come to see me." Otherwise, three days later, I will wash Xiangping City in blood.

When Gongsun Du and the officials of Liaodong heard that the general Li Hong suddenly appeared in Liaodong, they were extremely frightened. Gongsun Du did not hesitate at all, and despite the dissuasion of everyone, he immediately went to Goguryi City to meet Li Hong.
On the banks of the Liaoshui River, Gongsun Du met the general Li Hong.
When Li Hong saw him, he sneered: "Should I line up to welcome the heroes who defend Liaodong?" ”
Gongsun Du bowed to the ground and did not dare to speak.
"Back then, Lord Zhao Bao and the Xianbei people fought in western Liaoning, and the Xianbei people kidnapped Lord Zhao Bao's mother, wife and children, and coerced Lord Zhao Bao to surrender, what did Lord Zhao Bao do?" Li Hong said sharply, "Lord Zhao Bao would rather give up his mother, wife and children, and swear to defend the territory of the Han Dynasty to the death." Between her mother and Sheji, Lord Zhao Bao did not hesitate to choose Sheji, what about you? What did you do? Don't you feel ashamed? ”
"The Son of Heaven is benevolent, the court is generous, and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess also understands the suffering of the soldiers in Liaodong, so he specially changed the law and pardoned your capital crimes, but you are arrogant and brazen, and at this time you dare to openly disobey the holy decree." Li Hong roared, "Do you still have the Son of Heaven and the imperial court in your eyes?" Is the law of the Han Dynasty a pile of useless broken bamboo? If you want to die, say it, and I will fulfill you. I would rather lose Liaodong than allow the rebellious ministers and thieves to trample on the majesty of the Son of Heaven and the imperial court, and wantonly insult the dignity of the law of the Han Dynasty. ”
Gongsun Du was ashamed, but he still tried his best to defend his subordinates, "I am the Taishou of Liaodong, and I will bear all the blame." The Liaodong soldiers are not guilty, please ask the general to give them a chance. ”
Li Hong was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "The imperial court can give them a chance, and even give you a chance, but you have to give the imperial court a promise." ”
Gongsun Du almost couldn't believe his ears, he was stunned for a long time, and his eyes kept staring at Li Hong. Suddenly, he fell to the ground suddenly, kowtowed again and again, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "General, the lower officer ......"

"Don't thank me, this is a gift from the Son of Heaven and the imperial court." Li Hong interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "Defending Liaodong is not enough to atone for your crimes. If you want to get the complete pardon of the Son of Heaven and the imperial court, there is only one way, and that is to lay down a large territory for the Han Dynasty. ”
"You have expanded your territory and made brilliant achievements, the Son of Heaven and the imperial court can not only forgive you for the crimes you committed in the past, but also give you the title of marquis and general, and Liaodong will change from a border county to an inner county because of the expansion of the territory of the Han Dynasty, and Liaodong will be solid from now on." Li Hong smashed his fist on the desk and said loudly, "Lord Gongsun, do you have such ambitions?" Do you have such a determination to serve the country? ”
Gongsun Du was grateful, bowed to the ground and bowed again, "General, Xiaguan and all Liaodong soldiers swear to the sky that as long as they are in one breath, they will be broken for the Han and never give up." ”
"Okay." Li Hong jumped up and waved his arms vigorously, "When I calm the Central Plains, I will provide you with grain and grass to help you achieve the great cause of opening up the territory." ”

In mid-October, Yuzhou, Peiguo Qi (qi) city.
When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's army was fighting with Huang Zu in Jiangxia, Yuan Shu decisively requisitioned nearly 10,000 troops from the Yangtze River to Qicheng. He gathered an army of 30,000 troops, took advantage of the mistakes in the coordination between the Yanzhou army and the Xuzhou army, and took the initiative to attack in early October, inflicting heavy losses on the Yanzhou army and killing Cao Cao's generals Xu Xi and Mao Hui.
Cao Cao and Liu Bei retreated fifty miles, and the troops were stationed in Suishui to discuss countermeasures. At this time, it was late autumn and winter was coming, so Liu Bei suggested withdrawing the army. Cao Cao considered that the army had been fighting for too long, and that he had recently lost another battle and lost two generals, and his morale was low, so he immediately agreed to Liu Bei's suggestion and calculated to withdraw his troops back to Yanzhou.
At this moment, Yuan Shao sent someone to come.
♂♂♂♂♂ I'm the end of the book bxs8^com's invincible shining dividing line 4 ♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂♂ recommended—
This time, Yuan Shao did not ask Cao Cao to send the Son of Heaven to Luoyang, but proposed a compromise solution. Yuan Shao suggested that Cao Cao send the Son of Heaven to Yingchuan, with Xuchang in Yingchuan as the temporary capital.
Yingchuan County in Yuzhou and Chenliu County in Yanzhou are at the junction, and Xuchang City is about 300 miles away from Chenliu City in Chenliu County and about 500 miles away from Luoyang.
Yuan Shao's suggestion was obvious, putting the Son of Heaven in a place where neither of them could hold him hostage, so that although he could not dominate the imperial power, it also made Cao Cao lose his strong support.
This is the first time that Yuan Shao has publicly expressed his attitude since Yuan Shu re-established the imperial system. Yuan Shao not only recognized the imperial system established by Cao Cao, but also generously took a step back, which made Cao Cao suspicious.
Yuan Shao suddenly showed his attitude at this time, which obviously had a lot to do with Yuan Shu's defeat of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and the two planned to withdraw their troops. Yuan Shao didn't want the two to withdraw their troops, but the question was, did Yuan Shao categorically decide to abandon Yuan Shu just because he wanted the two of them to continue fighting? Is there a conspiracy in this?
Yuan Shao recognized the imperial system established by Cao Cao, and the next step was to separate the line with Yuan Shu, announce to the world that Yuan Shu was a rebellion of the Han Dynasty, and support Cao Cao and Liu Bei to attack Yuan Shu. Yuan Shao put Yuan Shu on a dead end, and Yuan Shu must fight back and fight to the death with Cao Cao and Liu Bei. When the two sides fight to the death, Yuan Shao may have to attack the Central Plains.
If Yuan Shao wanted to take the Central Plains immediately, then Yuan Shao might have taken control of Jingzhou at this moment. Cao Cao was puzzled. Liu Biao was so vulnerable after the Battle of Yizhou? Liu Zhang, Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu attacked Jingzhou one after another, inadvertently forming a east-west flank attack, but in this way, Liu Biao was defeated?
If Yuan Shao takes control of Jingzhou, and then designs to put Yuan Shu on a dead end at this time, and let him entangle himself and fight with him, then the Central Plains may really change hands in an instant.
Cao Cao then decided to withdraw his troops, intending to ignore Yuan Shao's suggestion.
Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and others tried their best to dissuade them.
Now withdraw the troops, and this year's battle will be in vain. If the adult agrees to Yuan Shao's request and sends the Son of Heaven to Xuchang, then Yuan Shu will be abandoned by Yuan Shao. Without Yuan Shao's support, Yuan Shu would inevitably fall into a desperate situation, and internal divisions were inevitable. Yuan Shu was in turmoil, and defeating Yuan Shu was a breeze.
After taking the two counties of Jiangbei in Yangzhou, we will connect the Central Plains and Jianghuai together, and we will be able to advance and retreat freely on the battlefield in the future. Even if we lose the Central Plains and let Yuan Shao rob the Central Plains, with the alliance between Jianghuai Land and Cao, Liu, Sun and Zhou, we can still compete with Li Hong and Yuan Shao for hegemony in the world.
Now Yuan Shao is powerful, Hebei is unable to go south in the short term because of the rebellion of the Hu people in northern Xinjiang, and if Yuan Shao occupies the Central Plains at this time, it is very likely to usurp. Once Yuan Shao usurped it, a big war between us and Yuan Shao was inevitable. After Hebei stabilized the northern Xinjiang, it could take advantage of the fishermen's advantage and go south. Therefore, in order to prevent Yuan Shao from usurping, we still promised Yuan Shao as soon as possible to send the Son of Heaven to Xuchang. In this way, we can effectively slow down the pace of Yuan Shao's usurpation and buy enough time for us to seize Yangzhou and consolidate the Central Plains.
Guo Jia also hypothesized another possibility.
If Yuan Shao controls Jingzhou now, his strength has skyrocketed, and it is impossible for us to stop him from conquering the Central Plains. What should we do if we lose the Central Plains?
and Hebei secret alliance.
If we are forced by Yuan Shao's threat to send the Son of Heaven to Xuchang, and we have no Son of Heaven in our hands, we can send people to secretly go north, form an alliance with Hebei, and use the power of Hebei to attack Yuan Shao. When Hebei and Yuan Shao were inseparable, we gathered heavy troops to attack. In this way, we can not only get back the Central Plains, but also Yuzhou.
The strength of the adults increased suddenly, but Yuan Shao's strength was greatly damaged, and he had to bow his head to the adults and return the emperor. In addition, at that time, he had to look at the faces of adults to barely survive in the area of Guan and Luo. In this way, adults can base half of the country, and if the time is rǐ, adults can lead the army, cross the river to pacify Hebei, and dominate the world.
After Cao Cao carefully weighed the pros and cons, he listened to the opinions of Cheng Yu and others. In order to ensure that this matter was foolproof, Cao Cao specially asked Mao Jue to go to Luoyang to talk in person.
In November, news of the Jingzhou battlefield reached Cao Cao's camp.
Liu Biao defeated Liu Zhang's Yizhou army in mid-October. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu joined forces to attack Jiangxia, but were stubbornly blocked by Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu, and the Jiangdong land and water armies fought for more than two months, but they did not hear anything, and they had no choice but to withdraw.
Yuan Shao wanted to wait until the Jingzhou army was difficult to support before he came to his aid, so as to quickly control Jingzhou. But who expected it backfired, the Jingzhou army won on both battlefields, and Yuan Shao failed to control Jingzhou.
Cao Cao was overjoyed, and immediately wrote to Mao Jue, asking him to talk slowly with Yuan Shao, don't be in a hurry, and delay it if you can. However, he had decided to send the Son of Heaven to Xuchang and delay it, just to get more benefits from Yuan Shao.
At the same time, Cao Cao wrote to Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, asking them to reorganize their army and threaten Yuan Shu from the Yangtze River as much as possible, so as to prepare for their own attack from the front.

On November, Jizhou, Guangzong City.
After receiving the urgent order from the general, the commander of the seven battalions of Jizhou rushed to Guangzong City to meet the general Li Hong.
After Zhang He, Gao Lan, Xu Huang, Wang Dang, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Xiu saw Li Hong, they hurriedly asked about the situation in northern Xinjiang. The generals didn't know that the news sent by the imperial court was fake, and they were all anxious, eager to know the specific battle situation.
"That news is fake." Li Hong said lightly, "The purpose is to deceive the Central Plains rebellion and make them temporarily lose their vigilance against Hebei." ”
The generals looked at each other, crying and laughing. Wang Dang couldn't be angry, so he scolded as soon as he opened his mouth, "Those people in the court are really full, and they have nothing to do to make us poor and happy." ”
Zhang He leaned over to Li Hong and asked in a low voice, "General, are you going to fight the Central Plains?" ”
"Yes, I didn't go back to Jinyang directly, but went to Jizhou to see you first, just to open the matter of chūen to fight the Central Plains."
"Okay...... Wang Dang was overjoyed, excitedly clenched his fists, and slapped the case a few times or twice, "General, Lord Zhang Yan promised me that if I hit the Central Plains, let me cross the Yellow River first." ”
Li Hong smiled, "The first battle of the Central Plains War was not to cross the Yellow River, but to attack Luoyang from the direction of Hanoi. ”
The generals set their sights on both Zhang Liao and Zhang Ru, whose armies were stationed in Hanoi.
"Fighting Luoyang is just to contain Yuan Shao's troops, there is no battle, it's boring." Wang Dang pursed his lips dissatisfiedly, "General, when will you cross the Yellow River?" ”
"When Yuan Shu asked for help, it was we who killed the Yellow River."
