At the beginning of the war, all that remained was to flow a series of places to pacify the problem and build the city, under the auspices of Jia Xu and Cheng Yu, the army began to gather hooligans from all over the world to return to Wudu County to live, and increase the population in the territory, which was fundamental.

For those displaced people who have no fixed place to live because of broken houses and barren fields, Lu Bu gave them two paths, either to join the army, or to act as a man to help Lu Bu repair the damaged city, after the end, Lu Bu will give them a certain amount of land and farm tools, and then help them build simple houses for them to live in, of course, this is not free, they only need to pay half of the food to the government every year.

Militarily, Lü Bu discussed with the civil and military forces under his account, and decided to wait for Lü Bu to leave, leaving Wei Yan as the military and political guard of Wudu County, the governor of Wudu County, and Yang Hu, Jiang Xu, and Yan Xing, who were familiar with mountain warfare, to assist together.

Half a month later, in Wudu, the size of the matter was established, Lu Bu led the army to Longxian, stopping and stopping along the way, the army trekked for more than half a month, and finally arrived at the political and cultural center of western Liangzhou, Longxian.

It took three years for Lu Bu to finally go from having nothing to now sitting on one of the princes of the land of the four counties, and there are more than 100,000 warriors under his command, at this moment, he is most concerned about his sworn enemy Cao Cao.

Cao Cao since the beginning of the peace of the third year after the entry into Yanzhou, the situation compared to the Tiger Prison when he was greatly improved, the battle of Jibei, the surrender of more than 300,000 Yellow Turban Army, Cao Cao selected its elite, the formation of the "Qingzhou Army", but the increase in strength, does not mean that Cao Cao can sit firmly in Yanzhou.

At the end of the same year, Gongsun Zhan waved his army south, and also appointed Shan Jing to rob Cao Cao's Yanzhou, Tao Qian and Yuan Shu were not willing to be lonely, and successively sent large armies into Kou Yanzhou, which required Cao Cao to spend a lot of effort to deal with it.

In this life, there was no Lu Bu and Chen Gong who did not participate in the Battle of Yanzhou. However, there were still cracks in Yanzhou, and finally the city changed its flag, and Cao Cao's strength was compressed in the three county towns of Zhencheng, Fanxian, and Dong'e, and this time the leader of the army was to welcome Cao Cao as the Taishou of Dongjun, his most trusted close friend Zhang Miao. This suddenly pushed Cao Cao into a desperate situation.

The fuse of the Yanzhou incident is because of a person named Bian Rang, who was originally Jiujiang Taishou, talented and handsome, famous all over the world, upright and upright, not sycophant, Cai Yong once said that he was a genius, "smart and wise".

Cao Cao knew something about Bian Rang. When the general He Jin recruited famous people from all over the world, he was one of them who made the history of the general's order, and later became the Taishou of Jiujiang.

When he resigned from Jiujiang and returned to Yanzhou, Kong Rong also wrote a letter to Cao Cao, asking Cao Cao to resign and ask him to reuse this talented person. Among the scholars, there is a person named Guo Linzong, who has a lot of common sense. In his eyes, Bian Rang is certainly talented. But he didn't know the current affairs, Cao Cao didn't believe it, and after visiting in person, he was scolded by Bian Rang pointing his nose, and Cao Cao killed his whole family in a fit of rage.

Cao Cao killed the side, the rabbit died and the fox was sad, and the things hurt him. The Yanzhou scholars were deeply saddened and frightened by the Bian Rang incident, so they united with Zhang Miao to make a rebellion and elected Shan Jing sent by Gongsun Zhan to sit on the Yanzhou pastor.

Cao Cao did not regain the drop until the end of the second year, but there was a lack of food and the loss of troops. and the renunciation of Yanzhou scholars, prompting Cao Cao to reassess the strategic value of Yanzhou.

When Cao Cao was busy with housekeeping, Chang'an was not at peace.

Li Dao and Guo Yan did not "live in peace" in Chang'an for a long time, the two of them fought because of mutual suspicion, and the Han Emperor embarked on the road to return to the east in the chaos, when the Han Emperor avoided the Yellow River and spread the news in the eastern part of the river to the Kanto region, it was already the beginning of the year.

The princes of Kwantung paid close attention to the return of the Han Emperor to the east, Yuan Shao's adviser Guo Tu appeared in Hedong in time, and Cao Cao immediately sent an envoy to Kwantung after recovering Yanzhou.

In this regard, the strategists under Yuan Shao's account formed two camps.

One camp is represented by Tian Feng, who believes that "welcome the return of the Han Emperor to Xijing, and restore the temple in Luoyi", and finally slowly welcome the Han Emperor to Yecheng, with Yecheng as the imperial capital, and then coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, cattle and horses to beg for court.

The other camp was represented by Guo Tu and Chun Yuqiong, who believed that the Han Empire had lost its prestige and would be replaced sooner or later, if the Han Emperor was welcomed to Yecheng. The gains will outweigh the losses.

Yuan Shao made more decisions and less plans, delayed and made fewer decisions, and lost the opportunity in the future, it is precisely this kind of major event that he cannot make a decision immediately, because he fell into the inconvenience that will be brought about after controlling the Son of Heaven, Yuan Shao groaned and took the initiative to give up the best opportunity to control the Son of Heaven this time.

After Cao Cao recovered Yanzhou, he did not carry out the post-war reconstruction of Yanzhou, but put Yanzhou on hold and turned to Yuzhou, Cao Cao entered Yuzhou from Chen Liu, Cao Cao's intention was obvious, the reason why he chose Chen State, first, was because Chen State was not warned, and he could provide him with support, so as to stabilize the army's morale, preserve strength, and establish a station to replace Yanzhou; Second, most of the civil and military forces under Cao Cao's account came from Yuzhou, such as Cao Ren, Xiahou Xuan, and Xiahou Yuan, all of whom came from Peiguo in Yuzhou; Cao Cao's important advisers, Xun Yu, who was called "my son's room" by Cao Cao, and Guo Jia, whom he recommended, are all coming to Yingchuan, Yuzhou, Yingchuan Xun is a famous Shilin family, and has a strong appeal for Yuzhou soldiers, which is particularly important for Cao Cao, who angered the Shi clan gate lord in Yanzhou, to be able to gain the trust of the Shi clan again through Xun Yu, and Chen State borders Yanzhou Chen Liu, Yuzhou Peiguo and Yingchuan.

Giving up Yanzhou and entering Yuzhou is a strategic transfer made by Cao Cao, so he wants to gain a firm foothold in Yuzhou and operate it, which is the best policy, and there are still Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses and the remnants of the Yellow Turban in Yuzhou, so he must not take it lightly, so he set his sights on Hedong.

Contrary to the attitude of the princes, Xun Yu accepted King Xiang of Zhou and the princes Jing Cong, and Gaozu Dongzhan was the righteous emperor and the world returned to the heart, if you want to achieve great things, you have to serve the Son of Heaven.

Xun Yu cited the three major benefits of welcoming the Son of Heaven; One is to win the hearts and minds of the people; It's about serving Junjie. Winning the hearts of the people is the foundation for Cao Cao to gain a foothold again, and serving Junjie is a manifestation of Cao Cao's political superiority over other princes. The appearance of this opportunity should not be missed, and if you miss it, you can't catch it up if you want to.

Cao Cao is a person who can judge major events, this is his difference from Yuan Shao, Xun Yu's description of the prospect of the Son of Heaven, enough to make Cao Cao no longer stay in the cycle of envoys, but to take that crucial step, send troops westward to meet the Son of Heaven.
