【Tao Qian】
Tao Qian, the word Gongzu, Danyang people; In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the impression is often that Tao Qian is a thin little old man who has been bullied, and he is particularly lacking in heart and eyes and does not leave his inheritance to his children and grandchildren, but gives it to Liu Bei; And is that really the case? Of course not, Tao Qian lost his father at a young age, in the ancient scholar society, once your father is not there, it is difficult to have the opportunity to climb up, but Tao Qian relied on his resourcefulness and courage, and started all the way from the grassroots level, successively served as the county commander, Yilang, Yangwu captain, state assassin history, etc., and experienced countless times in his life, leading troops to fight against the imperial court rebels in the bitter cold land of Xiliang, and breaking the Yellow Turban Army when the Yellow Turban was in chaos in Xuzhou; After the heat was implemented in Xuzhou, Tuntian was resumed, and he was a legendary figure, who was able to write and martial arts, and was good at internal affairs and foreign wars, but there is a saying to describe Tao Qian in a fitting way, you have done nothing wrong, you are old; At a time of great opportunity, this time is no longer for you ...

【Gongsun Du】
Gongsun Du, the word Shengji, a native of Liaodong, was a separatist force in Liaodong at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Shao moved to Xuansu County with his father. At the beginning, he was a small official of Xuansu, and was later dismissed from office after being promoted to Shang Shulang and Jizhou Assassin History. Later, upon the recommendation of fellow villager Xu Rong, he was appointed by Dong Zhuo as the Taishou of Liaodong. After Gongsun Du took office, he strictly imposed strict punishments and strict laws, cracked down on powerful forces, and made the order administrative through, and his wings gradually increased. In the first year of the first peace, Dong Zhuo in the Central Plains was in turmoil, and the warlords from all over the country had no time to look east. Gongsun Du took the opportunity to establish himself as the Marquis of Liaodong and the pastor of Pingzhou. Then he attacked Goguryeo in the east, attacked Wuhuan in the west, took the Liaodong Peninsula in the south, crossed the sea to take the Donglai counties in the north of the Jiaodong Peninsula, and expanded the territory; He also recruited talents, set up a museum to open a school, recruited displaced people, and traveled overseas, as if he was the king of Liaodong.
In the eyes of fans of the Three Kingdoms, Gongsun Du has always been a soy sauce player, and he can know that he has such a person because he has the surname Gongsun, and Gongsun Chan has the same surname, in fact, they have nothing to do with each other at all, Gongsun Du can fight well, and has a political vision, he is definitely an unborn talent, but it is a pity that he was born in the late Han Dynasty in such an era when there were more geniuses than talents;

【Changyang Port】An important port for trade between Shandong Peninsula and Liaodong
【Huangxian County】Qingzhou Donglai County Administration, rich in products, developed coastal fisheries

【Total Strength】Gongsun Du has 30,000 Liaodong iron cavalry in his hands, plus thousands of naval troops, which seems to be the largest force in Liaodong.
【Diplomacy】Gongsun Zhan's main battles were with the northern nomads, and he had little contact with the Central Plains forces, and the closest thing was Dong Zhuo's forces who had sent him to Liaodong, but he did not take action to support it.
[Economy] There is no way to compare with the Central Plains, but because of the control of Donglai County, Gongsun Du mastered the trade from Liaodong to the Shandong Peninsula, so that Gongsun Du had a stable economic source.
