Chapter 5 Literary and ugly planning

At the beginning of Wen Chou's army stationed in the north of Ye County, Wen Chou ordered Lu Liang and Tian Chou to make them camp here with peace of mind, and then took Wen Ba alone and continued to march towards Ye County. Because there is one more thing that requires his involvement.

Wen Chou's arrival naturally had to have a banquet, thinking that Wen Chou's people had picked up the wind and washed the dust. For such an important person as Wen Chou, the banquet held to welcome him was naturally overcrowded. In Ye County, not only Han Fu's subordinates and staff are all in place, but also some wealthy families are also very face-saving and have come one after another.

It is because Wen Chou has come into contact with a lot of celebrities at this banquet, so to speak, this is the grandest banquet he has ever been exposed to, and it is also the highest standard. Because everyone who attends the meeting, if they are put outside, must be able to influence a person! And it is the kind of character who has to go out of the city to greet the county magistrate and the county officials. They are all heroes of a state!

This Chinese ugliness also really has a lot of characters to pay attention to. Jizhou's famous celebrities, big people don't need to say much. In Wen Chou's understanding, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Lu Yi, Zhu Ling, Dong Zhao, as well as Jiang Yiqu, Jiao Touch and other generals under Yuan Shao's subordinates, all followed Han Fu at the original time! What's more, there are a large number of military leaders who are not familiar with Wen Chou!

Zhang He, Gao Ran, etc. can all be said to be potential stocks, so they naturally need to build a good relationship first, even if they can't dig into the corners of Han Fu and get them under their command, they must also make their names imprinted in their hearts.

And those who are not familiar with Wen Chou are also the objects that Wen Chou needs to befriend, because since they can be like themselves, they have won Han Fu's attention, and they have entered the wisdom of Han Fu and his staff, so they naturally have their uniqueness. What's more, they are all powerful figures, no matter what aspect they are, they should make friends with them.

Speaking of befriending Han Fu's subordinates, wise men, as well as fierce generals and heroes, it is necessary to introduce them a little.

It was just the same as Wen Chou, who led an army alone, and was named Koji Yoshi, who was second only to the rank of general. It is very necessary for Wen Chou to visit and make friends with him personally. Although it is not possible to get the favor of Koji Yi, but such a famous figure, if Wen Chou does not see it in person, he will definitely regret it for the rest of his life.

Ko Yi, the governor of the capital, led an army alone, stationed in the south of Ye County, far away from Wen Chou's Wu Mengjun, representing the highest combat power in Jizhou!

Koji Yi can be described as one of the best generals in the Three Kingdoms period. According to the "Heroes" record: "Twenty miles south of the bridge in the battle boundary, more than 30,000 Zan infantry are Fang Chen, riding horses are two wings, more than 5,000 horses on the left and right, and the white horse is the backbone, and it is also divided into two schools. Shao Zi with tens of thousands of infantry in the rear. ”

Seeing that he had few soldiers, he let him ride and wanted to go to the tomb. The volunteers did not move under their shields. Before dozens of steps, they rose at the same time, screaming in the dust, clash straight forward, strong crossbows and rain, and the center will fall. Linchen Chozan signed Jizhou Shi Yan Gang A more than 1,000 levels. The Zan army was defeated, ran on foot, and did not return to the camp. Righteousness chased to the boundary of Qiao, and the Zhandian soldiers returned to the bridge, and the righteousness was broken. Then he went to the camp of Zhan, pulled out his teeth, and the remnant of the camp dispersed. The Zhanbu rode more than 2,000 horses to the ground, and then surrounded Shao several times, bows and arrows rained, and the koji Yi came to greet them, but they dispersed. ”

That is to say, in the battle of the boundary bridge, Koji Yi resolutely resisted Gongsun Zhan's strong white horse Yicong attack with 800 swords and axes and 1,000 crossbowmen, and the last counter-charge killed Gongsun Chan tens of thousands of cavalry to lose their helmets and unload their armor, and Koji Yi took advantage of the victory to pursue and kill directly to the camp of Gongsun Zan in the middle army of 20 miles, cut the Yamen banner before returning triumphantly, and on the way also dispersed Gongsun Chan to besiege Yuan Shao's other cavalry to save Yuan Shao, creating a glorious example of winning more with less. Although the Battle of Jieqiao did not completely change the strength of Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan, it greatly increased the ambition of Yuan Shao and his followers.

After the Battle of Jieqiao, Koji Yi was ordered to fight Gongsun Chan many times, and won more than defeated. Gongsun Chan's title of 'White Horse General' is not obtained in vain, it is obtained in the long-term battle with foreign clans, and Gongsun Chan's fundamental core soldier 'White Horse Yicong' is also weak, but it is still defeated by Koji Yi, which shows the majesty of Koji Yi! The mighty of its army!

It is said that the surname Koji is a small surname, even it is not uncommon in later generations, and how can Koji Yi be so brave, and have a more brave and powerful army than the elite soldiers who have been carefully built by Wen Chou over the years with countless experiences and knowledge of later generations!? This needs to start with Koji's background.

From some information that Wen Chou deliberately heard, it is inferred that the surname of Koji should have been changed by the Ju family, and Ju Tan was implicated in the rebellion of Liu Yun, the king of Dongping, because of the fear of further persecution, he led his son Ju to "take refuge in Huangzhong, because of his residence in Xiping, and changed his Ju to Koji". Since then, he has changed his surname to Koji incognito, and is the first ancestor of the Xiping Koji clan.

And it is precisely because of this that he is active in Xiping, Jincheng, Linqiang and other places, interacting with the people of Qianghu, taking Qianghu as a neighbor, and living in a staggered place, it can be said that you have me, I have you. The Xiqiang people are aggressive, brave and strong with soldiers, and often make a living by plundering, they gather in groups, roar, and leave with a full load, erratic.

When the local government was unable to provide effective protection, their family bought the Qianghutou people with a lot of money to obtain temporary peace, and on the other hand, it was their family's main strategy to survive at that time to build a strong family armed force for effective self-defense.

In the long-term battle, this family armed force has been greatly tempered, and they have mastered and used the Qiang people's fast horse scimitar and surprise tactics, becoming a powerful armed group of the Koji family on the side of the megaquaint. Thus there is a mighty army of Koji Yoshi! It can deter the army of Jizhou and one state!

In fact, in addition to the above-mentioned battle, which did not happen, but was famous in later generations, Koji Yi also participated in some other wars.

In the seventh year of Emperor Guanghe, that is, in the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out in the Central Plains, and the first emperor sent Zuo Zhonglang to put down the rebellion of Huangfu Song, and Huangfu Song went to Liangzhou to recruit troops in the third year of Zhongping, and more than 1,000 people led by Liyi to respond to the recruitment. In Jizhou, and the Yellow Turban Army in the area of Jizhou and the Yellow Turban Army all returned with a great victory, very appreciated by Huangfu Song, after the end of the counterinsurgency, Huangfu Song returned to the court, and Liyi stayed in Liyang. After that, it is now, and he has become a capable leader under Jizhou Mu Hanfu.

However, even though it is so powerful, although Wen Chou wants to make friends with him, it is limited to ordinary friendships, and he has no intention of taking him under his command. Because Kojiyi's character is not commendable. In history, he betrayed Han Fu not long after he was under Han Fu's command. And as Yuan Shao's vanguard army, he used military power to deter and force Han Fu to give way to Yuan Shao.

This is his infidelity, and his character determines his tragic end. Koji Yi did not betray Yuan Shao in the camp, but made great achievements for Yuan Shao, but the result was very tragic. In the fourth year of Jian'an, Yuan Shaofa besieged Yijing with heavy troops, and finally eliminated Gongsun Zhan, and the overall situation was decided, and Liyi was booby-trapped to death.

This paragraph is recorded in the "Biography of Yuan Shao in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty", "Self-possessed merit, arrogant and indulging." Shao summoned and killed them, and joined them".

Since the strategy for dealing with Koji Yi has been decided, since it can't be used for himself, he can only try not to make it his enemy, that is, he has become his enemy, so he must also build a good relationship first, so as to leave a glimmer of land and leave an opportunity.

Except for Koji. Wen Chou's most important thing is the second of the 'Hebei Four Court Pillars'. These two people are Zhang He and Qinghe Gaolan! Of course, Zhu Ling, the talent he is most likely to get, is also one of the objects that Wen Chou needs to fight for.

Zhang He was a general who participated in the Yellow Turban Rebellion. is very valued by Han Fu, and now he is the position of military Sima, although it is slightly inferior to Wen Chou, but he is also a prominent and important position.

However, according to Wen Chou's understanding in his previous life, Zhang He worked for Yuan Shao in the same way as Lu Yi in the future. And when attacking Gongsun Zhan, he made a lot of achievements. Moved to Ningguo Zhonglang General.

In the famous Battle of Guandu in later generations, Zhang He made another important decision, which made him widely known in later generations.

At that time, Cao Cao attacked Wuchao, and Zhang He said: 'Cao Gong's soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and they will definitely defeat Chun Yuqiong and others. Chun Yuqiong once failed. Then the general's great cause is over, and you should bring troops to the rescue as soon as possible. But the strategist Guo Tu said: "What Zhang He said is not a good idea, our army might as well attack Cao Cao's camp, Cao Cao will inevitably come to the rescue, so that Chun Yuqiong's danger will not be saved and solved." ‘

Zhang He retorted: "Cao Gong's camp is solid, and he will definitely not be able to attack it in a hurry. If Chun Yuqiong and the others are captured, we will also be taken prisoner. As a result, Yuan Shao listened to Guo Tu and did not listen to Zhang He's persuasion, and sent him to attack Cao Cao's military camp, but not only did he not capture it, but the black nest that lacked rescue was also robbed.

After Guo Tu's plan failed, he framed Zhang He and made insulting remarks after the failure, and Zhang He and other generals were afraid of being held accountable, so they surrendered to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was pleased with Zhang He's surrender, personally greeted him and said, 'Ruweizi goes to Yin, Han Xin returns to Han', and then served as a partial general and a marquis of the capital of Ting. This is Zhang He's return to Cao Cao, and since then he has embarked on a brilliant life.

In the twentieth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao marched west to Zhang Lu and arrived in Chencang, preparing to enter the Di tribe from Wudu County; The Di people blocked the way, and Cao Cao sent Zhang He to command an army against Liang Xing and the Di leader Dou Mao. Soon from Sanguan into Hanzhong, Zhang He was sent to lead 5,000 infantry to open the road in front of Yangping. Zhang Lu surrendered, Cao Cao returned to the army, and Zhang He, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang and others were left to defend Hanzhong to reject Liu Bei.

In the same year, Zhang Hebei supervised the army to attack the two counties of Padang and Brazil, and moved the local people to Hanzhong. Liu Bei sent the captured general Zhang Fei to defend the Brazilian county to fight against Zhang He. Zhang He led the army to the ditch, and Zhang Fei refused for more than 50 days, Zhang Fei led more than 10,000 elite soldiers to attack Zhang He from the trail, because the mountain road is narrow, the end can not be rescued, Zhang He was defeated, only with more than ten people abandoned the horse to climb the mountain and escaped, and then collected the defeated soldiers, and withdrew to Nanzheng. Promoted to General Dangkou.

In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, Liu Bei personally led more than 10,000 elite soldiers, divided into ten divisions, and attacked Zhang He at night. Zhang He led his own troops to confront the Shu army, but Liu Bei could not conquer Zhang He, so he wrote a letter asking Yizhou to allocate reinforcements. Zhuge Liang hesitated for a while, and Yang Hong persuaded: 'Hanzhong is the gateway to Yizhou, without Hanzhong, there would be no Yizhou, what are you hesitating about?' Zhuge Liang suddenly realized that he immediately sent troops to reinforce him.

Afterwards, Liu Bei retreated to the horse valley and set fire to the camp, Xiahou Yuan knew that Zhang He had few soldiers, so he transferred some troops to reinforce and put out the fire, but met Liu Bei's army on the way and was killed by the Shu army. Cao's army was defeated, and Zhang He retreated to Yangping Kanto with the defeated army. And when Liu Bei heard that Xiahou Yuan was killed, he only said: 'If you want to kill, kill Zhang He, what's the use of killing Xiahou Yuan!'

When Sima Guo Huai and the overseer Du attacked and dispersed, Guo Huai saw this and said: "General Zhang is a famous general of the country, and Liu Bei is also afraid of him. Now the situation is urgent, and only General Zhang can calm the morale of the army. So everyone elected Zhang He as the commander, commanded the soldiers, arranged the camp, and the army was stable. Soon, Cao Cao sent an envoy to order Zhang He to take a holiday. Liu Bei wanted to cross the Han River to attack, but when he saw the Wei army lined up north of the Han River to meet him, Liu Bei gave up crossing the river and held each other across the water. Cao Cao personally attacked Hanzhong and could not win, so he withdrew his troops from Hanzhong and ordered Zhang Hetun to garrison Chencang.

In the first year of Yankang, after Cao Pi became the throne of Wei, he appointed Zhang He as the general of the left and entered the title of marquis of Duxiang. After Cao Pi ascended the throne, he made him the Marquis of Yan, and ordered Zhang He and Cao Zhen to lead soldiers and horses to conquer the Lu Shuihu and the Eastern Qiang people who were entrenched in the Anding generation. After the battle, Cao Pi summoned Zhang He and Cao Zhen in Xuchang Palace, and sent Zhang He south to attack Jiangxia County of the Eastern Wu regime with Xiahou Shang. Zhang He alone led several armies across the Yangtze River and captured the Wu army fortress on Bailizhou.

In the second year of Taihe, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, invaded the north, and the officials of Tianshui, Nan'an, and Anding rebelled against Zhuge Liang. At that time, the courtiers did not know what to do, and Cao Rui said confidently: "Zhuge Liang is stubborn and not easy to attack. Now he came automatically, in line with the tactic of drawing out the enemy. Defeating Zhuge Liang is a certainty. So Cao Rui gave Zhang He a special official and asked him to supervise all kinds of military horses and block Zhuge Liang's subordinate general Ma Tan in the street pavilion.

Ma Tan set up a village in the dangerous Nanshan and did not go down the mountain to occupy the city. Zhang He cut off his access to water, and then launched an attack, defeating Ma Yan. The counties of Nan'an, Tianshui, and Anding rebelled against Wei in response to Zhuge Liang, and Zhang He led his troops to pacify these places. Cao Rui issued an edict and said: 'The thief Kou Zhuge Liang led the rabble of Ba and Shu and met our soldiers like fierce tigers. General, thou shalt be clothed in armor and wielded in thy sharp weapon, and thou shalt conquer all thou shalt conquer thou shalt be rewarded, and thou shalt increase thy food and thou shalt increase thy food and thy one thousand, and thy one thousand shall be rewarded, and thou shalt make a thousand three hundred. ”

This is Zhang He's rather glorious history of conquest, and with such a fierce record, Wen Chou is naturally quite interested in it. However, these things will not happen again, because Wen Chou has all the conditions to recruit Zhang He. But Zhang He's military career will be even more brilliant under Wen Chou!
