Tian Feng understood a truth, that is, following a benevolent and righteous Ming Jun is called true loyalty. Loyalty to the Lord, to the world, to the people, to oneself.

But all the famous ministers and good generals who understand this truth have all returned to Mingjun, such as Huang Zhong, such as Yan Yan, a decapitated old general. If you don't understand this truth, it seems that you can't be called a good general.

Tian Feng suddenly, his face was red, and he knelt down instead of facing east, turned around, and changed his face to west. Looking at Gao Yuan, he was suddenly ashamed, didn't know what to do, and lowered his head.

Gao Yuan came from later generations, and he didn't pay so much attention to it. He walked over to help Tian Feng up, and greeted Zhang He and Wen Chou, and said, "Okay, let's go to Chang'an together." ”

This is a foregone conclusion, everyone is their own person. It seems that the decision was made on behalf of Tian Feng and the others, but in fact, it avoided the embarrassment of the three of them.

As a result, Tian Feng and the others joined Gao Yuan's command.

The army hit the road again and headed for Chang'an.

On the other hand, Yuan Shao is already like a lost dog. He no longer had any soldiers in Yongliang, so when he entered Chang'an, he was also caught in an urn. Therefore, he didn't dare to enter Chang'an anymore and went straight to Tongguan.

Tongguan also had Yuan Shao's 3,000 defenders, and after arriving here, he immediately sent someone to inform Yan Liang, who was guarding Luoyang, and quickly sent troops to the rescue. At the same time, Yuan Shao did not stay in Tongguan and continued to advance eastward.

Therefore, when Gao Yuan led the soldiers and horses to Chang'an, he was greeted not by the enemy, but by the people of Chang'an City.

Hundreds of thousands of people all left the city, chanting lofty names.

Gao Yuanbing did not fight bloodlessly and got Chang'an.

Immediately after, Gao Yuan, under Tian Feng's suggestion, continued to move eastward. With Wen Chou and Zhang He coming forward, the 3,000 defenders of Tongguan surrendered.

Five days later. Gao Yuan came to the Hangu Pass.

Hangu Pass, according to the plateau in the west, bordering the Jiejian in the east, connecting the Qinling Mountains in the south, and the Yellow River in the north, is one of the earliest Xiongguan fortresses built in history. That's really a one-man affair.

It is said that after Yan Liang caught Yuan Shao, he led an army of 100,000 troops into Hangu Pass.

When the two sides met, everyone was an acquaintance, and after a fateful friendship, Yan Liang still owed Gao Yuan a life. Therefore, Yan Liang didn't say anything, he ignored the persuasion of Wen Chou and others, and just said: "Today, each is his master, and there will be no brotherly love." If you want to pass through Hanya. Just pass the knife in Yan Liang's hand first! ”

It seems that Gao Yuan did not achieve the effect of Liu Bei's entry into Shu, although Wen Chou and others helped him, but because a general of Yan Liang's level appeared in Hangu Pass, Gao Yuan's military operation may only end here. After all, Gao Yuan was able to sweep Yongliang because Yuan Shao's local soldiers and horses were completely wiped out in one battle.

And although Yuan Shao lost Yongliang, he still has the land of seven states. On the line from Hanguguan to Luoyang, there are 200,000 troops. And in the Central Plains and the North. Yuan Shao was able to mobilize no less than 500,000 troops.

Jia Xujin said: "Lord, the capture of Yongliang is already a great victory. The top priority is to stabilize the newly acquired counties. Yuan Benchu did not think of loyalty, the outer width and the inner taboo, the pillars of Hebei have withered and have become the trend of the sunset. It should be done steadily. Find another opportunity to fight a decisive battle. ”

Guo Jia and the others nodded for a while, and in less than half a month, they seized two states in one go, which is already unprecedented and unprecedented.

Tian Feng said again: "There is Zhang Lu in Han, and Liu Zhang in Xichuan." Don't be blank for too long, the lord should think twice. ”

Tian Feng said, Gao Yuan naturally couldn't learn from Boss Yuan. He merged two large companies in one go, one became three, so he naturally had to sort it out well, so as not to rob others without paying attention.

Therefore, Gao Yuan also retreated, leaving Cao Hongzhen to guard Tongguan and return to Chang'an.

In the second half of 205 AD, Gao Yuan sent Ma Chao, Pang De and others to raise 80,000 Xiliang soldiers to attack Hanzhong. Zhang Lu and others knew that they were not Gao Yuan's opponents, and they had a grudge against Liu Zhang and could not get support, so they surrendered.

In the following year, Gao Yuan returned to Jinyang, leaving Cao Hong, as well as Zhang Heng, Cheng Yi, Yang Qiu, Yan Xing, and Cheng Gongying to guard Yongliang. Ma Chao, Pang De, and Han Sui were all taken away.

After Gao Yuan returned to Jinyang, he was ceremoniously welcomed by the people and the imperial court.

Subsequently, the overjoyed Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty put forward a request to move the capital to Chang'an. Chang'an has a ready-made palace, so there is no need to live in a small house.

Gao Yuan readily agreed, but said: "At present, the important land is still in Bingzhou, Your Majesty will go to Chang'an, and the hundred officials will stay and deal with government affairs." ”

Emperor Han Xian was dumbfounded at that time, and once again recognized his position. Emperor Han Xian was already tired, and he just wanted to live a stable life. In his opinion, he may not know when Gao Yuan will be finished, and he may not be the next one to take over.

Therefore, Emperor Han Xian felt that Gao Yuan was still good to himself, so Emperor Han Xian chose to go to Chang'an. In this regard, Emperor Xian of Han went to Chang'an, and the imperial court stayed. Gao Yuan also made a drastic transformation, Yang Biao is the captain, Kong Rong is Situ, Cao Cao is Sikong, and Guo Jia is Jiuqing. And the three public ministries and the subordinate officials of the Jiuqing Ministry are all their own people.

Although Gao Yuan does not have the name of the emperor, he is already the power of the emperor, but he still needs to really seize the world.

Therefore, Gao Yuan is also vigorously developing the military, with 300,000 troops, 200,000 in Bingzhou, and 100,000 in Yongliang.

It is worth mentioning that Zhao Yun and others are in the Youji base area, with Changshan County as the center, relying on Taihang Mountain, and radiating three states. From less than 1,000 people, the armed force has grown to 100,000. The millions of people around the base area did not pay Yuan Shao public grain, but only Gao Yuan.

I believe that in the future, it must be the arm of Gao Yuan's attack on Jizhou and Youzhou.

On the other hand, after Yuan Shao was defeated and returned to Yecheng, he learned that Zhang He, Wen Chou, and Tian Feng had surrendered, and Yongliang was all lost, vomiting blood. One can't afford to be sick, sometimes good and sometimes bad. Therefore, the Yuan group did not have the time to manage and secluded the base area, and only sent large troops to garrison the periphery of the base area.

However, Yuan Shao was unwilling to fail, and the scholars could not ignore the threat of annexing the state, so they worked together to exploit the people, get money and food, and catch strong men. Military binding, even sitting binding, by the beginning of 206, the Yuan group had millions of soldiers.

200,000 are in Luoyang, 200,000 are in Hefei, and 600,000 are on the border of Youzhou, Jizhou and Bingzhou.

Yuan Shao's three sons saw that their father's condition was good and bad, and they also had a heart. Yuan Tan has Chen Deng's father and son, Zang Ba, Han Hao, Sun Guan, Du Pre, Wang Zhao, Cen Bi, Peng An, Wang Xiu These generals, Xuzhou is the base camp, and the 200,000 troops on the front line of Hefei are all his armed forces.

With the help of Guo Tu and Xin Ping, Yuan Xi received the support of Liang Xi, Lu Qian, Jiao Touch, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Dong Zhao, Mao Jie, Cui Yan and others, and the 200,000 troops produced in Youzhou were all descendants.

Yuan Shangyou Feng Ji and Trial, Zhao Zhao, Ma Yan, Su You, Zhang Yi, Zhu Ling, Li Tong, Liu Fu, Chen Jiao, Jiang Gan, these people all followed him, and the 200,000 in Jizhou listened to him.

And Jiang Yiqu, Lu Weihuang, Lu Kuang, and Lu Xiang, these old men, led Yuan Shao's 200,000 descendants.

The Yuan group is also a cloud of generals, with a group of civil officials, and it seems to be strong, but in fact, it is divided into four parts. Yuan Shao is bedridden all day long, and he can't control too many things.

However, in April 206, on the first day of early summer, Yuan Shao made an earth-shattering event. (To be continued......)
