North of the Yellow River, the land of Yanzhao···

The Kwantung princes are now opposing each other and fighting each other, and Yuan Shao, as the leader of one side, is even more unwilling to be lonely;

After winning both the Battle of Jieqiao and the Battle of Longcuo, Gongsun Chan retreated back to Youzhou, and Yuan Shao prepared a counterattack against Gongsun Chan.

At the same time, he also set out to eliminate the Montenegrin army, sending the general Gao Gan and the military advisor Xu Yu to attack the Montenegrin army's lair from the state;

After Yuan Shao's successive victories, his head began to be less sober. chose to attack Youzhou. Siege warfare has always been a taboo for soldiers. There is no advantage several times that of the enemy, there is no weapon to siege the city, and once you choose to attack the city, it is an idiot's behavior.

Dong Zhuo had a strong army and did not attack Luyang. Sun Jian attacked Yangcheng Xiangyang, but he took his life, which shows that the siege war is not so easy to fight. This time, Yuan Shao chose to attack the place of Gu'an;

General White Horse is not easy to get along with... In the battle of rejecting horses and water, Gongsun Chan won a complete victory!

Therefore, there is a river named Yishui, or Gu'an River, or Juma River and Baigou River, which is also from its flow.

The Juma River can be said to be the moat of Gu'an, and Gongsun Chan has a strange plan and does not face the river to defend against the enemy. On the contrary, let Yuan Shao cross the river to attack the city, which has deep meaning, the siege cannot be broken, Yuan Shao led the army to retreat to the river and return to Jizhou. The Juma River is continuous all year round, and the river is turbulent, so it is called Juma. Yuan Shaojun's retreat was blocked by the river, how could he be undefeated?

Yuan Shao saw that he could not break through the city of Gu'an, so he ordered the army to retreat; Gongsun Zhan's army followed out of the city, defeated Yuan Shao's army in one fell swoop, and killed more than 10,000 people, Yuan Shao fled back to Jizhou in embarrassment...

After the Battle of Jumashui, Gongsun Zhan once again pushed his forces deep into Jizhou and Qingzhou, and fought in the plains and the Bohai Sea for nearly two years! prevented Yuan Shao from prematurely pacifying the north, and played a great role in the rise of the male lord in the future!

General Baima's move can be described as - "the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone".

Yuan Shao's defeat greatly damaged the morale of the "Shao forces" headed by him, but fortunately he didn't give his strength, his subordinates were still quite capable, and the senior cadres used Xu You's strategy to lure the defenders of the Montenegrin army's nest out and broke through Montenegro in one fell swoop;

Breaking through the nest of the Montenegrin Army greatly shook the military spirit of the Jinshang Coalition Army and Zhang Yan's troops, the leader of the Montenegrin Army, and also gave Cao Cao an opportunity to take advantage of...

Once Yuan Shu swallowed the land of Yanzhou and did Cao Cao, it was he Liu Biao who was unlucky, even if he couldn't defeat Yuan Shu, Liu Biao also decided to send troops to create opportunities for Cao Cao;

Liu Biao sent troops all the way from Xiangyang, with the general Cai Mao as the forerunner, and the brothers Kuai Yue and Kuai Yue Liang as the strategists, all the way from Xiangyang to send troops of 50,000 sailors up the river, breaking through Qingyang and going to Wan County, and rushing to attack the initial location of Yuan Shu's troops, which is also the most important place under his command at present - Nanyang County!

Yuan Shu had to mobilize troops and horses to protect Nanyang, he sent Ji Ling to separate from the ranks, and led Sun Jian's old troops to gather 60,000 sailors to go to Wancheng in Nanyang to fight Liu Biao;

When Ji Ling was leaving, he instructed Yuan Shu to wait quietly, hold on to the city, and look at Xuchang City, so that he could break the "Qingzhou Army" on the opposite side without fighting;

Oriental··· Taishan County, Yanzhou···

Cheng Yu is not a good stubble, this is a strategist who is more like a military general than a strategist, decisive in killing, resolute in doing things, as soon as he arrived in Taishan County, he immediately relied on the soldiers and horses of Cao Ren and Cao Hong brothers to come out of the Hongmen banquet, and silently detained Taishan County Shou Yingshao and relieved him of his position;

After that, he became the chief official in Mount Tai, on the one hand, he told the Cao brothers to practice day and night to confuse Tao Qian; On the one hand, he showed weakness to the enemy, and praised Tao Qian with numbness;

This old man was extremely thick-skinned, and Tao Qian's face was red, but he himself did not react at all;

No matter how you look at Tao Qian, he feels that there is fraud in this, and the scout returns: Cao Jun of Fei County shouted to kill Zhentian, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were needed;

Coupled with Cheng Yu's shameless praise, Tao Qian decided that this was a show of weakness to the enemy, and if he led the army to attack at this time, he would definitely fall into Cheng Yu's trap, so he did not send troops, but was still waiting;

The competition between the two old men, Tao Qian and Cheng Yu, is a brain-fighting and bloodless battle, but the danger is not easier than seeing the high and low on the battlefield...

The West··· Chang'an··· Where the Han court is located··· Dong Zhuo's old department gathered···

After a long time, as soon as the external threat weakened, the internal contradictions of the Xiliang Army appeared, and the "multi-core" force obviously could not last long, just like the princes of the Eighteenth Route when the princes were fighting for Dong;

The Xiliang Army is currently divided into several forces, with Li Dao and Guo Yan as the two largest forces, Xu Rong, who is self-sufficient in Xingyang, slightly second, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's uncles and nephews, Li Meng, Fan Chou, Duan Xuan, Hu Zhen, Wang Fang, Yang Ding and others all have their own forces;

Because there are too many mountains, the system and division of labor are not clear, and there is a secret scandal between each other, and after a long time, Li Dao, the nominal leader of these people, can't stand the yang and yin of these people, he first united with Guo Yan to destroy Fan Chou, and took away his military horses;

After this incident, there was a great shock within the Xiliang Army, and Li Dao and Guo Yan also stranded their plan to go east to Hanoi and Yanzhou;

Except for Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew who led the army to run away and ran to the south, except for Xu Rong, the others had to lower their identities to serve Li Dao and Guo Yan because of their late action;

Among Dong Zhuo's old subordinates, only Xu Rong was not afraid of them, because he had enough strength and was not easy to get along with; Xu Rong reclaimed the barren land in the Xingyang territory to be self-sufficient, and supported his own 50,000 Xiliang Xiaoqi, with a strong backing, plus he himself was also a good general in the world, and he was not afraid of Li Guo and the others;

Xingyang is the gateway of the Chang'an generation, on the one hand, Li Guo and the others have to rely on Xu Rong to block the edge of the Kwantung princes, on the other hand, they are also afraid that Xu Rong will not dare to make any moves, Xu Rong is not their opponent in terms of personal bravery, but when it comes to marching and arranging, they are not worthy of lifting shoes for Xu Rong!

The two of them didn't dare to recruit Xu Rong, because they killed Dong Zhuo's younger brother and wiped out Dong Zhuo's three clans; Xu Rong is not from Xiliang, he is a native of Xuanwu in Liaodong, Youzhou, and the only foreigner in Dong Zhuo's forces;

It stands to reason that he will be ostracized, just like Lu Bu's annexed state army, but—no! He is very talented, and he is also very loyal to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo also trusts him very much, even surpassing Li Dao and Guo Yan, Xu Rong also became the general of the Liangzhou Army and integrated into this group;

Dong Zhuo died too suddenly, suddenly Xu Rong was not prepared at all, when he knew that several days had passed when Dong Zhuo died, Xu Rong, who did not want the Liangzhou army to kill each other, chose to forbear, and did not rashly avenge Dong Zhuo, so a strong Liangzhou army force independent of Li Guo and the two was formed;
