Zhuo County has been restored to calm.

After the Han army entered Zhuo County, it quickly stabilized Zhuo County.

This time, there was only one strategist who accompanied Liu Chuang to Zhuo County, but it was enough to reassure the officials and gentry of Zhuo County. Bei Zhan, a famous man in Hejian, had previously worked for Yuan Xi, and had contact with officials of all sizes in Zhuo County, and even said that he had a close relationship. He is already good at government affairs, but unfortunately Yuan Xi is unwilling to reuse it. Now that he has taken refuge in Liu Chuang, Bei Zhan also held his breath and wanted to make some achievements to prove himself.

Therefore, when Liu Chuang seized Zhuo County, Bei Zhan immediately went to visit the gentleman Haoqiang of Zhuo County.

Now although the Han family has declined, Liu Yan and Liu Yu have been in charge of Youzhou before, which makes Youzhou Haoqiang also have some thoughts about the Han family.

Liu Chuang's entry into Youzhou in the name of the emperor's uncle seems to be a good choice!

Among them, thanks to the fierce battle between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao, people are determined. Youzhou Haoqiang did not appreciate Gongsun Zhan, and Yuan Shao's capture of Youzhou was only a short time, and his control over Youzhou was far less powerful than that he was in Jizhou and Qingzhou. It is precisely because of this that Liu Chuang was able to become the master in Youzhou Shun lì without encountering much resistance.

"Zhang He and Gao Ran, they left yesterday!"

In the yatang of the Zhuoxian County Government, Li Yifeng looked dissatisfied.

"The lord traveled three hundred and seventy miles, rescued the two of them and was in danger, how could he be so ignorant of etiquette, and he didn't even see him, so he left?"

There was no one else in the yatang.

Liu Chuang was wearing a civilian suit, and he couldn't help laughing when he looked at Li Yifeng's angry face.

"Yifeng doesn't have to take this matter to heart, Junyi and Guanzhi are both assertive people.

It's a good thing they're gone. If you really resign in person, I am afraid that it will be difficult to meet in the future...... Walk and go. Let them go. ”

Liu Chuang said it lightly, as if he didn't care.

But in fact, if it weren't for yesterday's humble persuasion, he probably wouldn't have been so calm.

"What is the difficulty for the lord to want Zhang Gao and the two generals to be attached?

Thinking about it humbly, the reason why Zhang Gao left was because he had the heart to serve. The lord thought about it, where can Zhang He and the two generals go under the current situation? Do you continue to play for Yuan Shao? I don't think Yuan Shao can tolerate the two of them. Now in Hebei, except for the lord. Who else can contain the two of them? The reason why I said goodbye without saying goodbye is probably because I have the mind of being defenseless and having no shame. ”

Hearing Bei Zhan's words, Liu Chuang was stunned for a moment.

Come to think of it, it seems to be the same thing.

What is the character of Gao Yan in history? Liu Chuang doesn't remember very well.

But Zhang He is a very arrogant character. With the grace of saving his life, but he has no merit, how can he have the face to join Liu Chuang?

"Mr. Pei means ......"

Bei Zhan smiled: "Before, I was still worried about how the lord would capture Zhuo County.

Today, Zhang He Gaolan and the two generals left, and he was relieved to be humble. The two generals Zhang Gao have quite prestige in the army, and with the two of them coming forward, they will definitely be able to take down this Zhuo County without spending a single soldier. Isn't this a blessing? Now that the situation is in place, the lord can concentrate all his energy on Daijun and Shanggu. ”

Zhang He Gaolan, he actually wants to take Zhuo County?

Liu Chuang couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. But there is a little more anticipation.

In September of the fifth year of Jian'an, the battle of Guandu was in full swing.

With the protracted war, Cao's army gradually became difficult to provide food and salary.

Its tired state. It has been revealed...... Under these circumstances, Liu Chuang attacked Youzhou. It also made Yuan Shao nervous.

Seeing that Cao Cao was already tired, Yuan Shao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, this also made Yuan Shao begin to shift his attention to northern Xinjiang.

At this time, the contradiction between Fu Zhu and Yuan Shao gradually became acute. In fact, as early as the beginning of the year, when Yuan Shao ordered Yan Liang to besiege Baima, he was frustrated and built Yuan Shao, Yan Liang had the courage and no strategy, and he could not be the commander. But Yuan Shao didn't listen, and as a result, Baima was defeated, and Yan Liang was captured by Cao Cao.

After that, Yuan Shao led the army to the south, and was dissuaded again, saying that he should not rush lightly.

But Yuan Shao still refused to listen, and he was frustrated because of this, so he pretended to be unwell and asked to go home.

Yuan Shao was appeased and rejected the request. But at the same time, he held a grudge against Fu Zhu and handed over all his troops to Guo Tu to lead. But the result was that the soldiers entered Yanjin and Wen Chou was captured.

In this case, Yuan Shao's dissatisfaction with the frustration became more and more intense.

He was already an extremely rigid and conceited person, and his predictions were correct several times before, which made Yuan Shao jealous of Fu Zhu.

Yuan Shao felt that he had lost face, so he became more distant from frustration.

Historically, after the Battle of Guandu, many people thought that Tian Feng would be released by Yuan Shao, but only Tian Feng himself knew that if Yuan Shao won the Battle of Guandu, he would not be in danger. But if it was the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao lost...... Then in the end, he will definitely be killed by Yuan Shao.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this problem was blamed on the slander of the strategists.

But in fact, if Yuan Shao didn't have the intention to kill Tian Feng, even if he slandered again, Tian Feng would not be killed.

In the final analysis, it's just that Yuan Shao pushed the boat down the river, and it didn't have much to do with the strategist.

The contradiction between Fu Zhu and Yuan Shao is getting bigger and bigger.

Yuan Shao looked frustrated, and became more and more unpleasant...... Seeing that the situation in Youzhou was critical, Yuan Shaosuo went to Youzhou in frustration to save the situation.

"If the prince and Liu Chuang are defeated, it will be a great achievement."

Frustrated, he hesitated, and said in a deep voice: "Whether it is a great achievement or not, I don't care much."

I and Yuan Hao, is a close friend, now Yuan Hao is still in prison, if the lord is compassionate, please release Yuan Hao, he has no heart for the lord. ”

Originally, this was just an extremely ordinary request, but Yuan Shao showed hesitation.

"Yuan Hao is arrogant, and he still needs a lesson.

I don't have any thoughts of damaging Yuan Hao's life, but I'm just in shape...... Don't worry, I'll let him out when the time comes. ”

Regarding Yuan Shao's thoughts, Fu Zhi was very clear in his heart.

I'm afraid that the 'then' that Yuan Shao said is the time when he wins.

It's just that......

Frustrated with the intention to persuade again, but seeing that Yuan Shao was unwilling to talk about it again, he knew that if he persuaded again, he was afraid that it would backfire.

In desperation, he left in frustration. Return to Yecheng.

On the way back to Yecheng, Fu Zhi carefully learned about the battle situation in Youzhou. When he learned that Liu Chuangbing was trapped in Changping, he couldn't help but change his face.

"In this way, Youzhou is in danger!"

This kind of strategy of encircling points to send reinforcements is not difficult to see through for Fu Zhi.

"Immediately send someone to Bingzhou, ask Yuancai to send troops to besiege Wuyuan, and take Xun Chen for me!"

Yuancai is Yuan Shao's son-in-law, Gao Gan.

The order has just been given. got the news that Xun Chen rebelled in Jiuyuan, killed Yuan Shao's supervising army, and led his troops to capture Yunzhong County......

"Yuan Hao, the current situation. When is it good? ”

That night, he visited Yecheng Prison at night and met Tian Feng.

Although Tian Feng was arrested and imprisoned by Yuan Shao, his spirit seemed to be very good.

After all, he is a famous man in Jizhou, even if he becomes a prisoner, no one dares to embarrass Tian Feng.

He was in prison, held in solitary confinement in a cell. There is no shortage of furnishings, except for a little less freedom, almost no different from normal people.

"The public is going here, and it should be resolved quickly."

Tian Feng listened to the words of the frustrated professor. Then he said: "Uncle Liu Huang seems to be powerful, like a devastating and decaying, but in fact, the foundation is not solid.

After Gonghe arrives in Zhuojun, as long as he stabilizes his position. and then wooed and appeased the powerful people from all over Youzhou, and it didn't take long. You can twist the shape shì. ”

Frustrated, he nodded his head again and again.

"That's exactly what I mean."

"After Gonghe arrives in Youzhou, you can reuse Junyi and Guanzhi.

These two people have great talents, but unfortunately they have not been reused. With the assistance of the two of them, it is not difficult to defeat Uncle Liu Huang...... However, as long as Gonghe drives Uncle Liu Huang back to Liaodong, he must not be killed. In any case, Uncle Liu Huang is a member of the Han family, and we can make it difficult. ”

I was frustrated and listened, and I thought so.

After chatting with Tian Feng for a while, he returned home.

It's just that when he was ready and led his troops to Zhending, he heard the news that Liu Chuang had taken Zhuo County.

At that time, he was shocked, thinking it was a rumor. But after he inquired carefully, he knew that the matter was conclusive.

"Xianyi mistook me for a big thing!"

Frustrated and listening, it is beating the chest and stunning.

He didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly ordered someone to summon Yuan Shao, and at the same time issued an order, ordering the two Taishou guards between the Bohai River to recruit soldiers and horses, and assemble in the river to stand by.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Under the city of Zhuoxian, the flag is displayed.

After accompanying Tian Yu and Zhao Yun to defeat the Gushui Yuan army, they drove straight into the army and occupied Anci.

Subsequently, Zhang Liao waved his troops north and defeated the main force of Yuan's army in Liangxiang. At this time, the Yuan army stationed in Liangxiang can be said to be leaderless. Therefore, after Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses arrived, they were quickly defeated. Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun's two troops and horses converged with Yangxiang, and Liu Chuang also followed and put his mind at ease.

After capturing Zhuoxian, the battle situation in Youzhou quickly became clear.

Daijun Karasuma Dadan Yu Nengchendi, under the persuasion of Zhuge Jun, soon announced his naturalization.

Liu Chuang immediately worshiped Nengchen Di as Karasuma Shan Yu, and ordered Xu Sheng to lead his troops westward, Zhuge was the long history of the army, and cooperated with Nengchen Di to drive straight into Dai County.

Han Heng, the Taishou of the county, is a famous man in Youzhou.

He rarely lost his parents, supported his brothers and sisters, and was famous for his wa.

The most important thing is that Han Heng once studied under Lu Zhimen, although it was only a few months, he has always regarded himself as a protégé. Han Heng's so-called protégé is not the same as Liu Bei's protégé. Liu Bei took the name of Lu Zhi's disciple and swaggered around. Han Heng rarely talked about this matter in front of people, but after Lu Zhi's death, he took good care of the Lu family and maintained correspondence with Lu Yu.

After Liu Chuang captured Zhuo County, Han Heng received a letter from Lu Yu.

Uncle Huang is a relative of the Han family and the pillar of the country.

Uncle Huang is enterprising Youzhou, not in the name of the princes, but for the prestige of my Han family. Since Huan Ling, the border guards have been slack, and the alien borders have not stopped. There is General Baima in the front, and Yuan Shao in the back, all of whom are thieves in the country, and they are not worried about the people of Youzhou. Since the emperor's uncle entered Youzhou, he has set Karasuma, fought Xianbei, Lianfu Yu, and taken Goguryeo, and the Han family has never had a prestige for decades since Huan Ling.

Zi Pei is loyal and righteous, and the emperor's uncle has heard of the name for a long time.

In this way, why not attach to the imperial uncle and assist the Han family to determine the concerns of the people of Youzhou?

Youzhou is bitter and cold, and since Gongsun Yuan Shao, it has been repeatedly warned. The people are tired, but the people are determined. The brother knew that his brother was talented, so he dared to recommend it to the emperor's uncle, and asked his brother to think twice.

Han Heng, the word Zipei, the name of Youzhou Daijun.

After receiving Lu Yu's letter, Han Heng was a little moved.

After thinking twice, he finally decided to listen to Lu Yu's persuasion. He ordered all parts of Daijun not to resist and welcome the arrival of the Han army......

Xu Sheng can be said to be bloodless and occupied Daijun.

On the same day, Xun Chen ordered Wei Yue to be the vanguard officer and Wu Anguo to be the deputy general. Shun lì captures the clouds.

Gao Gan hurriedly ordered Yanmen Taishou Peng An to mobilize troops and horses in an attempt to stop Xun Chen's footsteps. But who would have thought that Daijun would be lost, and the Han army would garrison Gaoliu. Xu Sheng led the army out of the Great Wall and captured Qiangyin, echoing Xun Chen's army. Seeing this, Peng An didn't dare to rush forward, so he had to settle his troops. In case of a sneak attack by the Han army.

Time passes quietly unconsciously.

On this day, Liu Chuang led the civil and military forces of Zhuo County to wait outside the Shili Pavilion in the north of Zhuoxian County.

Distance. A team of Yuan soldiers and horses was stationed on the bank of the Taoshui River.

Zhang He looked at the two of them, walked out of the Yuan army's camp with a tired face, and came to the outside of the Shili Pavilion.

saw Liu Chuang waiting on the side of the road with a cadre of civil and military personnel. Zhang He and Gaolan couldn't help but be stunned, and they were about to get off the horse to see each other. Who knows, don't wait for the two to get off the horse. Liu Chuang strode and arrived in front of the two of them.

"Uncle Huang, why is this?"

Liu Chuang walked up to Zhang He's high view of the horse, and the probe grabbed the bridle of the war horse under the crotch of the two.

This also made Zhang He Gaolan panicked, and he didn't know what to do.

"Jun Yi Guanzhi, don't get off the horse.

I am leading the horse for the two of you today, not because you two came to serve, but for the people of Zhuo County.

The two generals are the pillars of the country, and it is even more rare to know the righteousness. If it weren't for the two generals who took the initiative to persuade the soldiers and horses of Zhuo County to surrender, I would have to send troops to conquer. When the time comes, no matter who wins and who loses, it is the people of Zhuo County who suffer. The two generals came today to save the Zhuo County father from the scourge of swords, and I led the horses for the two generals, what kind of big deal is it? ”

Liu Chuang's words made Zhang He and Gao Lan even more frightened.

After taking a few steps with Liu Chuang leading the horse, Zhang He Gaolan got off the horse and cried loudly on the ground.

"Uncle Huang didn't take the two of us as generals, but replaced them with national soldiers, and we have long been convinced.

I came here today, and I just hope to serve the emperor's uncle......"

Liu Chuang let go of his bridle and reached out to help Zhang He and Gaolan up.

He looked at Zhang He left and then at Gao Ran, and couldn't help laughing: "I have to be handsome and governed, like a long drought and nectar, the general trend of Youzhou is fixed." ”

After speaking, he took Zhang He and Gaolan's arms, walked with their arms, and boarded the chariot that had been waiting outside the Shili Pavilion.

As Bei Zhan guessed, Zhang He and Gao Lan left because they didn't want to serve Liu Chuang, but because they felt that they had no credit and had no shame to gain a foothold under Liu Chuang's account.

Therefore, after leaving Zhuoxian, Zhang He and Gaolan divided into two routes, one went to Wuruan Pass, and the other went straight to Beixincheng. In both places, Yuan Jun was stationed in the garrison. Zhang He Gaolan and the prestige of the two in the army were extremely high, especially after the death of Liyi, Zhang He took over the first camp and appeased the soldiers who first boarded the camp that year, which made many people have a good impression of him.

Wuruan Guan guards Yan Jing and was once a general of Zhang He's subordinates.

Hearing Zhang He tell him what happened, Yan Jing felt empathy, so he immediately responded and led his troops to start an incident.

And Gao Ran successfully said that he had surrendered the guards of Beixincheng, and with the incidents on both sides, Yuan Xi, who had just gained a foothold in Fanyang, couldn't help but be shocked, fled from Fanyang in a panic, and went straight to Zhongshan Kingdom. After Zhang He and Gao Ran's department converged in Fanyang, they immediately reported and attached themselves to Liu Chuang.

The heroes of Zhuo County, who were originally still in a wait-and-see state, knew that Yuan Shao's general trend had gone.

As a result, Zhang He's Gao Ran led his troops to Zhuo County, and the counties along the way surrendered one after another......

After Liu Chuang got the news in Zhuo County, he couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised.

Unexpectedly, Bei Zhan really said what the two of them were thinking, and Zhang He's surrender also indicated that the war in Youzhou was coming to an end.

This was much earlier than Liu Chuang expected, and it also made Liu Chuang feel a lot more relieved.

The sooner the Battle of Youzhou ended, the more time he would have to prepare...... Fu Zhu has already recruited troops in Gaoyang, and I believe that it will not be long before there will be a bitter battle. If the war in Youzhou has not yet been settled when the army is sent to Youzhou, it will inevitably cause more trouble.

Zhang He looked at this surrender, the surrender was good, the surrender was wonderful!

Liu Chuang naturally didn't treat the two of them badly, so he had today's move.

That night, Liu Chuang held a banquet in the Zhuoxian County Government to entertain Zhang He and Gaolan.

Zhang He Gaolan brought nearly 8,000 soldiers from Wuruan Pass and Beixincheng, plus the prisoners that Liu Chuang had collected in Liangxiang and Zhuoxian before, there were nearly 20,000.

"Lord, when the last general was in Beixincheng, I heard that Yuan Shao sent Fu Gong to come.

Now he is stationed in Gaoyang, and he is fighting strongly, and I believe that it will not be long before he will send troops to Beixincheng. In this way, Zhuojun will inevitably rekindle the flames of war, and when the time comes, the strong and powerful in various places will inevitably be shaken again, which is not conducive to the lord's governance of Youzhou. The last general is on the road, thinking about a plan. Instead of sending troops, it is better to take the initiative to attack and capture Yi County. When the time comes, with the risk of easy water, it will definitely be able to stop the frustration and the public. ”

When Liu Chuang heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up.

He glanced at Xu Shu and Bei Zhan, and praised Zhang He a little more in his heart.

In fact, before Zhang He came, Xu Shu and Liu Chuang mentioned the matter of taking the initiative, "The battle with Yuan Shao must not be launched in Youzhou, and we must take the initiative." ”

At that time, Xu Shu's construction coincided with what Zhang He said, which was to seize Yi County.

Unexpectedly, Zhang He actually took the initiative to mention this matter.

Liu Chuang was still a little hesitant before, who should be sent to take on the important task.

Now that Zhang He has stood up, Liu Chuang has made up his mind!

"Junyi, coming from Beixincheng, the journey must have been hard.

I should have given you both a good rest, but now it seems that I am afraid that I will have to bother you two more. I want to make the two generals command 5,000 troops, and Yuan Zhi will be the military division, seize Yi County, and block Yuan's army from going north. Zilong and Guorang also led 5,000 troops to the west to garrison Wuruan Pass.

I don't know how many generals are willing to work hard? ”

When Zhao Yun heard this, he got up without hesitation and said, "The lord is sending, and Yun has no excuses." ”

Zhang He Gaolan showed surprise on his face, and the two of them didn't expect that Liu Chuang would send the two of them so quickly, and he was entrusted with an important task.

"The last general will be determined to die, and will not let Yuan Jun cross the Yishui for half a step!"
