Xuzhou, another name of the ancient Peng City, is said to be the Dayao period, Peng Zu was enshrined here, and this place is the country of the Great Peng. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 When Yu divided Kyushu, he decided that this place was Xuzhou, which has exceeded 6,000 years of civilization history since Liu Feng's time.

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, after the rebellion of Zhou Pingding Wu Geng, in order to continue the sacrifice of Yin Shang, Weizi was sealed in Shangqiu, which was for the Song State, after a series of wars, the Song State later annexed the small country here, occupied this place, and in the Warring States Period, it moved the capital to Pengcheng. However, in the late Warring States period, it was jointly destroyed by Wei, Chu, and Qi.

After the unification of the Qin State, Pengcheng County was set up here, which belonged to Surabaya County, and when Chu and Han fought for hegemony, Pengcheng was the capital of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu. The Han Dynasty was unified, and Liu Bang named Han Xin as the king of Chu, all in Pengcheng. After Han Xin's death, all the kings of Chu of the Liu clan were also here. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the world was divided into thirteen states, and it was still followed by ancient times and was Xuzhou. After the revival of Guangwu, the state of Chu continued for several generations, and was later abolished for some reason and changed to a county. In the second year of Zhanghe (88 AD), Liu Gong, the king of Lu'an, was relocated to Pengcheng and renamed the king of Pengcheng. Up to now, as one of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, Xuzhou has 4 countries and 1 county, although it is not much compared to other states, but it is a rare place.

Today's Xuzhou Mu Taoqian is an old and serious person, but he is not an honest man, guarding the rich land of Xuzhou, but he can't cultivate weapons and prepare for war, expand the territory, in this troubled world, he is really an outlier.

Tao Qian, in the eyes of everyone, is a literati, once raised Maocai, served as a county commander, assassin history, and councilor, but he is also a person who likes military affairs. When Beigong Boyu and others led Qiang Hu to invade Sanfu, Liu Hong summoned Tao Qian to be the captain of Yangwu, and went out with Huangfu Song, and later changed to the general Zhang Wen to command the troops, Tao Qian has always disagreed with Zhang Wen, and openly humiliated Zhang Wen at the celebration banquet after the victory, Zhang Wen was furious, and sent Tao Qian to the border, and only after being persuaded by others to change his mind to chase Tao Qian back, but also personally went out to meet Tao Qian, but Tao Qian did not appreciate it.

In the fifth year of Zhongping, Tao Qian served as the assassin of Xuzhou, coinciding with the rise of the Yellow Turbans in Yanqing and Xuzhou, Tao Qian relied on the support of the Xuzhou clan, and quickly suppressed the Yellow Turbans in Xuzhou with the subdued Taishan Zangba as the forerunner, and the rest either fled into the mountains or went away to Qingzhou, and then successfully laid down two counties in Qingzhou.

Now Tao Qian has been in Xuzhou for several years, and it has been 5 years since he participated in the crusade against Dong Zhuo (not in history). But he did nothing but hold on to his turf. Oh, no, there is one thing he did, that is, after Dong Zhuo's death, after the Xiliang Army took control of the imperial court, he sent people to Chang'an to pay tribute, but he was worshiped by General Andong, added Xuzhou Mu, and was named the Marquis of Liyang, and even Zhao Yu, who took his subordinates to help advise, squeezed out Zhang Chao and became the Taishou of Guangling.

In fact, it's not that Tao Qian doesn't want to expand externally, it's just that he is powerless. At the beginning, he was able to gain a firm foothold in Xuzhou, firstly, the aftermath of the Han was still there, and Liu Hong was still alive, and no one dared to disobey him; secondly, he also recruited an army in his hometown of Danyang, called Danyang soldiers, and his combat effectiveness was very strong; Moreover, he has the support of the Xuzhou clan, and this is also the most important factor for him to be able to quickly take charge of Xuzhou.

But after Liu Hong's death, the deterrent power of the Han Dynasty decreased a little bit, and the family of Xuzhou no longer obeyed him as before, but everything was based on their own interests. Tao Qian's strength was not enough to expand outward while maintaining his authority, so he could only guard his territory.

At this time, Tao Qian was very old, and he thought that the rest of his life would pass like this, but he didn't expect that God gave him a great opportunity.

Someone in Xuzhou actually rebelled and claimed to be the Son of Heaven.

The rebel was Xia Pi Que Xuan, who gathered millions of people, but the place was not Xia Pi State, but in the north of Xuzhou, at the junction of Donghai State, Pengcheng State and Yanzhou Taishan County.

can set off such a big storm, of course, it is not something that Que Xuan, a low-level character, can do, in fact, it is Tao Qian's deliberate connivance that has made Que Xuan grow to such a point. It's not that the officials in the two places can't see the harm of Que Xuan, if it weren't for Tao Qian's mediation, it wouldn't be a big deal, and let him gather the people, otherwise, someone would have taken the opportunity to solve him a long time ago.

Que Xuan's thoughts, Tao Qian also understands something, the reason why he does not move, is to give himself convenience in the future, although the Xuzhou family is in fact no longer obedient to Tao Qian, but if something big happens in Xuzhou, they must also take Tao Qian as the leader, otherwise, once the guest bully the master, the next successor, as long as there is enough strength, I am afraid that these disobedient families will be eradicated as soon as possible.

Que Xuan rebelled, and Tao Qian immediately summoned the officials under his command to come to the meeting, announcing that he would personally lead troops to crusade against Que Xuan to ensure the stability of the Han Dynasty.

The reason why I was surprised was because Tao Qian didn't need to make a big show at all, Xuzhou's fierce general Zang Ba was near Que Xuan, and Wang Lang was ready in Pengcheng, as long as Tao Qian gave the order, he could enter the army to destroy Que Xuan at any time. But on the contrary, Tao Qian wanted to go out in person.

Que Xuan's raising of troops has been a year later than in history, and at this time in history, Tao Qian is almost sick and dying, but now, with the strength of the 7th order, Tao Qian's body is still strong. And because of the reason of the stranger, Cao Cao's father did not avoid living in Xuzhou, but has always been with Cao Cao, because Cao Cao is not strong now, and his ambitions for Xuzhou are not so big, and Tao Qian's life is much better than in history.

The battle situation in Xuzhou changed very quickly, Tai Shi Ci had just entered the princess's mansion, Tao Qian took people to the north of Pengcheng country, but he was not busy suppressing bandits at all, but sent people to contact Que Xuan, and then fought a few times on both sides, Que Xuan directly took his "volunteers" into Yanzhou Taishan, and then Tao Qian followed up.

Only then did everyone understand that Tao Qian was dissatisfied with their increasing independence in the past two years, did not obey orders, and wanted to expand his territory. There is a desire to oppose it, but now Que Xuan still has the name of "Son of Heaven" on his head, and it is their obligation to exterminate him, so they can only follow Tao Qian. As a result, the counties of Taishan County suffered a catastrophe and were successively sacked by Que Xuan and Tao Qian. Although Ying Shao has a great reputation, it is okay to govern a county, but the military is not his forte, coupled with the heavy losses in the last battle against Yuan Shu, he is powerless to restrain it, so he can only watch the two armies wreak havoc in the south, guard the county seat, and send several letters to Cao Cao asking for help.

It is precisely because of this behavior that the scholars of Xuzhou see Tao Qian's virtue more clearly, and they disagree with their own chief even more.

Tao Qian's personality, in the words of the history books, is "backsliding", "credit is not the place, criminal politics is ignored", pro-villain, far virtuous ministers, so that "criminal and political disharmony, goodness is more harmed". Xuzhou has produced talents since ancient times, and it was the same in the late Han Dynasty, but under Tao Qian's command, there were no decent talents, and many talents in Xuzhou would rather flee than be used. Even if they stay, they will not die for them.

Guangling Taishou Zhao Yu, before Xuzhou don't drive, although the rank is not high, but the power is very great, the assistant state pastor governs a state, but because of his loyalty, Tao Qian took the opportunity of tribute to make meritorious service as Guangling Taishou, on the surface it is promoted or even to win over the Xuzhou family, in fact, it is a kind of alienation and exile. There is also Zhang Zhao, the most famous figure in Xuzhou, who was even thrown into prison for refusing his recommendation, and was later released after being rescued by Zhao Yu.

And Tao Qian's trust is Cao Bao, Cao Hong, Zhang Kai and other slanderous villains, who have no ability, but they are reused by Tao Qian.

What Liu Feng is waiting for is the turmoil in Xuzhou, only Xuzhou has experienced great turmoil, and Xuzhou, which has gradually stabilized in recent years, has someone leave to avoid chaos in Jiangdong, so as to bring a group of talents and enrich their strength. And Pengcheng Zhang Zhao is Liu Feng's preferred talent, and it is best to use him to preside over Jiangdong affairs. Gu Yong, after all, is younger. (To be continued.) )
