After surrendering Zhang He and Gao Lan, Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Xi, also rushed to Yecheng from Zhao County, where he was stationed, and surrendered to Liu He. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Liu He was very happy about Yuan Xi's acquaintance, and immediately worshiped Yuan Xi as General Zhaode, and the General's Mansion was engaged in Zhonglang, and he was named Nanpihou.
At this point, Liu He completely obtained the entire Jizhou, and obtained the most elite talents in Yuan Shao's camp, and from then on, Youzhou, Bingzhou and Sili were completely connected, and there was no need to worry about anyone who could sever the connection between the East and the West.
Not only did he go to the worries, but he also got a vast place of ointment, and he also got elite talents, which made Liu He make a windfall.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a windfall, because this was originally a farce of Yuan Cao's life and death battle, Liu He stood by and watched, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao tried their best for the territory, but they were finally seen Cao Cao fighting hard and was about to harvest, but the peaches were picked by Liu He.
In fact, the current Cao Cao is already so angry that his lungs have exploded, but the situation is stronger than people, Cao Cao is now surrounded by enemies on all sides, and because he coerced the Son of Heaven to make the princes jealous of the princes of the world, coupled with Liu He's strong soldiers and horses, he has been defeated repeatedly, whether it is a soldier or an official, all of them are shaken in their hearts, and they dare not start a full-scale war with Liu He, so they can only take a retreating attitude and lead the army to retreat to the south of the Yellow River.
However, Cao Cao still didn't want Liu He to be able to receive the entire Jizhou so smoothly, and looked forward to all kinds of twists and turns in Jizhou, trying to delay the time for Liu He to unify the entire Jizhou.
However, despite this, Cao Cao also knew that with Liu He's ability, it should not be difficult to take over a mere Jizhou, and the local people in Jizhou would not be stupid enough to swear to fight Liu He, so it would definitely not take too long for Liu He to unify the entire Jizhou.
But Cao Cao never imagined that Liu He's time would be so short, so short that it was much beyond his expectations. When he first heard that Liu He had completely pacified the entire Hebei, his expression was full of shock and incredulity, and he muttered: "How is this possible? In addition to playing conspiracy and tricks, what else is commendable about Liu and this kid? Why did the people and officials of Jizhou join him willingly? Aren't these Simpi and Judge both faithful and upright men? Why did they all surrender? And frustration, aren't his bones hard? Why did you choose to surrender? What about his backbone? What about his arrogance? β
Although he was angry in his heart, Cao Cao had to accept the facts, and at the same time forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and specially sent an envoy to congratulate Liu He, and to the imperial court, worship Liu He as the pastor of Jizhou, and ask to expand Liu He's fiefdom.
So the imperial court issued an order to worship Liu He as the pastor of Jizhou and expand the number of food estates by 300 households.
In this way, Liu He was also a general, a lieutenant of the school and a state pastor of Youzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou, Liangzhou, and Yongzhou, and the thirteen states in the world plus the division of the department, he monopolized the five states and the three auxiliary departments of the division and the school captain's department, Hedong, Hanoi and other places, and occupied almost half of the Han Dynasty, and the world was shocked for a while, and became the object of envy and envy of many princes.
At this time, Sun Ce had pacified the Jiangdong region, obtained Lujiang, Danyang, Wu, Huiji, Yuzhang and other counties, and was worshiped by the imperial court as the general of Pingdong, Wuhou, and Danyang Taishou, and became one of the youngest heroes of the Han Dynasty for a while, but when he was proud, he suddenly heard the news of Liu Pingding Jizhou, and immediately felt furious, and ordered the army to reorganize its strength and prepare for war against Liu He, but now because it does not border with Liu He's territory, he decided to cut off Liu He's wings first, so he thought that in the name of avenging his father, led the army to attack Liu Biao's Jiangxia and officially started a war with Liu Biao's army.
Cao Cao, who heard the news, was very happy in his heart, and he decided to take advantage of Sun Ce's war with Liu Biao first, and he himself showed favor to Liu He's forbearance, and led his army to pacify LΓΌ Bu in Xuzhou and Yuan Shu who occupied Huainan, in order to completely unify the Central Plains, and also cut off one of Liu He's allies.
At this time, Lu Bu and Yuan Shu fought with each other, and they were inseparable from each other, and the emptiness in Xiapi City was a good opportunity for him to lead the army to sneak attack, so he ordered the newly secretly surrendered Taishan people Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Yin Li and others to lead the army to attack Langya State, and he personally led the army, and Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Li Dian, Dian Wei, Le Jin, Cao Hong and other awards and military advisors Xi Zhicai, Cheng Yu, Sima Yi led the army thousands of miles to attack Xiapi City.
At this time, Liu He was preparing to return to Chang'an, on the one hand, in order to avoid becoming the target of the public, he went to the imperial court, worshiped Lu Yi as the assassin of Youzhou, General Anton, and Fake Festival, and the main task was to train the naval army in Youzhou and prepare to attack Qingzhou by sea; He also worshiped Wei Yan as the assassin of Bingzhou, the general of Anbei, and the fake festival, and the main task was to control and pacify the northern nomads such as the Xiongnu and Xianbei; He also paid tribute to the Jizhou Assassin History, General Zhenwei, envoy to the festival, controlled Zhang He, Gao Ran and other Jizhou generals, ordered them to guard Jizhou, and trained soldiers, and at the same time, the main purpose is to develop internal affairs, restore the economy, and stabilize the people's livelihood.
Liu He also worshiped Zhong Qian as the lieutenant of the Si Li, and worshiped Pei Qian as the Liangzhou Thorn History, Anxi Duhu, and the envoy held the festival, the main task is four, one is to ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road that has just been opened, the second is to deter the surrounding nomads, and the third is to immigrate to the real border and stabilize the western border.
In addition, in order to threaten Hanzhong from two ways, Liu He appointed Xu Huang as the general of Yongzhou Assassin and Annan, and ordered him to garrison Chencang, ostensibly to prevent Zhang Lu from attacking Chang'an from Chencang Road, but in fact to threaten Hanzhong from Chencang Road. In order to be more conducive to concentrating troops to attack Hanzhong and Xishu, Liu He restored Hanyang County to Tianshui County, the name of the early Han Dynasty, and separated the western part of Tianshui County from the original Tianshui County to establish Nan'an County, and merged Tianshui and Nan'an into Yongzhou together with Longxi and Anding Counties.
The five state-level governors appointed by Liu He, although they were actually his subordinates, were all courtiers of the Han Dynasty on the surface, among them, Lu Yi and Ju Pei were all Yuan Shao's generals, Zhong Xuan's family was in Yingchuan, Pei Qian was the son of Pei Mao, the Shangshu of the court, and even though the others were like mirrors in their hearts, they could not find any reason or excuse for opposition on the surface.
However, what Liu He didn't imagine was that his Yongzhou assassin Xu Huang was still on his way to take office, and he heard that a great change had taken place under his rule.
It turned out that at this time, Ma Chao, who defected to Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, and Han Sui, who defected to Wudu Qiang, secretly reached a reconciliation, and with the support of Zhang Lu and Qiang soldiers, Ma Chao and Han Sui led an army of 50,000 and came to Lintao in Longxi County and launched a fierce attack on Lintao.
So, after a period of silence, the situation in Longxi rose again, and the war was unveiled again.
