[Zhang Yang's death, Hanoi returns to Cao]

When Cao Cao attacked Lü Bu, Zhang Yang, who had always been friendly with Lü Bu, wanted to send troops to rescue him, but due to the long distance, he failed to succeed, so Zhang Yang brought his troops to Dongshi as Lü Bu's backup, echoing each other from afar.

After the news of Lü Bu's defeat and killing came, Zhang Yang's general, Yang Chou, killed Zhang Yang to welcome Cao Cao, and Yang Chou was killed by another general under Zhang Yang, Gu Gu. Zheng Gu led Zhang Yang's troops to the north to unite with Yuan Shao and stationed in Shedogyi.

In April of the fourth year of Jian'an (199), Cao Cao sent Shi Jian and Cao Ren to cross the Yellow River to attack Zhenggu. Zheng Gu ordered Zhang Yang's original commander Xue Hong and Hanoi Taishou Miao Shang to garrison in situ, while he led his troops north and asked Yuan Shao for reinforcements, but unexpectedly encountered Shi Jian and Cao Ren in Dog City. The two armies fought, and Cao's army won a great victory, and Zheng Gu was beheaded. Cao Cao crossed the Yellow River, surrounded the shooting dogs, ordered Dong Zhao to enter the city alone to persuade Xue Hong and Miao Shang to surrender, and both of them were also named liehous, so Cao Cao incorporated all Zhang Yang's subordinates, and also got Hanoi County, expanding his power to the north of the Yellow River for the first time.

In the battle of the dogs, Cao Cao also caught Wei Chong, who betrayed him during the Yanzhou Rebellion, Cao Cao was very angry at Wei Chong's betrayal at first, but after Wei Chong was caught this time, Cao Cao sighed and said: "Just because he is a talented person!" He ordered Wei Chong to loosen his bonds, and still reused him, appointed Wei Chong as the Taishou of Hanoi, and entrusted him with the governance of all places north of the Yellow River, and then Cao Cao returned to Aocang.

【Good guy Zhang Yang】

Zhang Yang is a native of Yunzhong, and he became a martial artist in Bingzhou with his martial arts and bravery.

In the last years of Emperor Ling, the world was gradually chaotic, and Emperor Ling appointed his favored Xiaohuangmen official Jian Shuo as the captain of the military academy in the West Garden, guarding Kyoto, wanting to resist the invasion from all sides, and widely recruited the world's heroes as generals. Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others were all lieutenants at that time, and they were all under the jurisdiction of Jian Shuo. Ding Yuan sent Zhang Yang to lead his troops to Jian Shuo, and was named a fake Sima.

In the sixth year of Zhongping (189), Emperor Ling of Han died, and Jian Shuo was killed by the general He Jin. Zhang Yang was sent back to Bingzhou by He Jin to recruit soldiers, and recruited more than 1,000 people, Zhang Yang took these soldiers to garrison Shangdang, and put down the bandit rebellion in Shangdang. But soon the eunuch Zhang Rang and others launched a rebellion and killed He Jin, and later Dong Zhuo led his troops to Luoyang, coercing the Son of Heaven and ordering the princes to do all kinds of evil. Zhang Yang attacked Shangdang Taishou at Huguan, but failed to win, and diverted to attack nearby counties, increasing his troops by several thousand.

In the following year, the Kwantung counties united to kill Dong Zhuo, and Zhang Yang immediately led his army to join the alliance army formed by the Kwantung princes and led by Yuan Shao. Zhang Yang joined Yuan Shao in Hanoi, and then settled in Zhangshui with the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu Fuluo, but later Yu Fuluo wanted to rebel, Yuan Shao and Zhang Yang refused to obey, so Yu Fu Luo hijacked Zhang Yang and ran away, Yuan Shao sent the general Lu Yi to pursue, and broke Yu Fuluo's army in the south of Yecheng. Yu Fuluo kidnapped Zhang Yang and fled to Liyang, defeated the army of Geng Zhi, the general of Duliao, and Zhang Yang was able to make a comeback, so Dong Zhuo named Zhang Yang as the general of Jianyi and the Taishou of Hanoi.

When Lü Bu was first rejected by Yuan Shu and then expelled by Yuan Shao, Zhang Yang took Lü Bu in, and later under the tremendous pressure of Li Guo's court, Zhang Yang did not turn his back on Lü Bu.

Historically, Zhang Yang could also listen to other people's suggestions, and the communication with Cao Cao was realized at Dong Zhao's suggestion.

When Emperor Xian moved eastward, Zhang Yang twice rushed to the rescue when he was in difficulty, and after successfully settling the Son of Heaven in Luoyang, Zhang Yang gave up the opportunity to control the central government and chose to guard the Son of Heaven outside.

When his friend Lü Bu was besieged by Cao Cao, Zhang Yang took action again, but unfortunately because he was too far away, he still failed to save Lü Bu in the end, and Zhang Yang was later killed by Yang Chou, a subordinate who was committed to Cao Cao.

In history, Zhang Yang, as a courtier, was loyal to the Han Dynasty; As a friend, he is affectionate and righteous; As a leader, he is not an arbitrary person; But as a prince, he had no ambitions.

Zhang Yang was one of the few princes who was affectionate, righteous and loyal in the troubled era of the Three Kingdoms, but because of this, he was not a good monarch, or Zhang Yang never wanted to become a monarch, so he was finally abandoned by his subordinates and died in Huangquan.

But this does not mean that Zhang Yang is a failure, on the contrary, Zhang Yang is undoubtedly a good person, but that man was born in the wrong era and sat in a position where he should not sit.

A good person does not mean that he can become a king, and a bad person does not necessarily mean that he cannot become a king, because the evaluation criteria of a king are different from those of ordinary people.

【General Gao Shun】

In history, there is no doubt that Lu Bu is the leader of the Lu Bu group, but the second echelon after Lu Bu is not very clear, because there is too little historical information in this regard, the records of these generals are mostly scattered fragments, often without a head and tail, and the seven and eight generals under Lu Bu are just rumors of later generations, which cannot be confirmed at all.

But judging from the known historical data, Gao Shun should undoubtedly be the second echelon, and it is clearly recorded in the "Zizhi Tongjian" that Gao Shun is a Zhonglang general under Lu Bu, and his loyalty and ability are obvious to all.

"Heroes" not only records that Gao Shun pacified Hao Meng's rebellion, but he also once formed an elite army called the trap camp, and Lu Bu once captured it to Wei Xu, and did not return it to Gao Shun until wartime, but even so, Gao Shun did not resent anyone.

In history, Gao Shun also defeated Xiahoudun and Liu Bei, and Zhang Liao, who is now considered one of the five good generals, was not completely unknown at that time, but at least under the command of Lu Bu, Zhang Liao's status could not be compared with Gao Shun, and his achievements and merits were far inferior.

It's just that Zhang Liao surrendered, and Gao Shun was loyal to Lu Bu to the end.

In the final analysis, Gao Shun followed the wrong person.
