Chapter 232: Three Years (2)
However, it was said that Lu Bu's confidence increased greatly after recruiting Zhang Miao and Chen Gong, and he successively defeated Ma Teng and Cao Cao in Youfufeng and Dongjun and other places. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoIt's a pity that there was a locust plague on the way, and the army was defeated in Yanzhou. Its military strength was separated by Cao Cao, and some of them were headed by Gao Shun and Zhang Miao, supplemented by Cheng Lian, Hao Meng, Song Xian, and Wei Xu, and stationed in Sili. The other part was headed by himself, supplemented by Zhang Liao, Chen Gong, and Cao Xing, and lived in Qingxu. Judging from the situation, Lu Buxian is lagging behind, and it has reached the point where he can't go back to his home. But fundamentally speaking, he was not defeated, but a time bomb that drilled into the hinterland of the enemy, and could cooperate with Si Li to flank left and right at any time.
For this reason, Cao Cao joined Yuan Shao in the north, using "helping him to take Qingzhou" as a lure, saying that Yuan Shao would lead troops south, threatening Hanoi and Hedong, making it difficult for Gao Shun and Zhang Miao, who were stationed in Sili, to withdraw, and providing him with time to exterminate Lu Bu.
In the second year of Xingping (195 AD), summer.
Yuan Shao's generals Ju Yi and Gao Ran were defeated in Hedong to Cheng Lian and Hao Meng, and they could attack Jingzhao and welcome the Son of Heaven back to Hebei. Yanmen and Dingxiang, which are north of the state, were suddenly attacked by Gongsun Zhan, and they had no choice but to urgently recruit the two to return to defense, abandoning the plan of "serving the Son of Heaven to order the princes".
In July, when Yang Feng, the ruling of the dynasty, suddenly attacked, one of the eight strong generals who killed Lu Bu, "Hou Cheng", escorted Emperor Han Xian back to Luoyang, and wrote to Cao Cao that he would "help the Son of Heaven together", and wanted to replace Lu Bu. In August, Zuo Fengyi guarded the general Zang Ba, caught up with Emperor Xian in Hongnong, defeated Yang Feng and Dong Cheng in Dongjian, and countless officials and soldiers died. Yang Feng and Dong Cheng were defeated, and they made peace with Zang Ba, and secretly went to Wancheng Taishou Zhang Ji for help. It's a pity that Zhang Ji is Dong Zhuo's former minister, and he doesn't have a good impression of the court officials. Three days later, the old minister Wang Yun came forward to win the favor of Zang Ba with three daughters of flowers, and took advantage of his unpreparedness to successfully steal to Luoyang.
It is worth mentioning that Luoyang has become a ruin after Dong Zhuo's rebellion, except for the emperor who lives in the newly repaired South Palace, the rest of the officials have no residence. When Cao Cao and Lu Bu were circling Yanzhou, they did not go to Luoyang for the first time, resulting in a food shortage in Luoyang, and the ministers were hungry, and more than a dozen people died of starvation in only a month, and the situation could be described as embarrassing.
Fortunately, Xiliang Ma Teng defeated Gao Shun in the right wind, forcing Si Li's Lu Bu army to shrink in Chang'an and not dare to move lightly, which made Lu Bu and Chen Gong in the hinterland of Yanzhou slow down a little.
In September of the same year, Zhang Miao was bewitched by Song Xian and Wei Xu, established himself in Chang'an, won over Cheng Lian and Hao Meng, and expelled Gao Shun. To the west to make good friends with Ma Teng, to the north to make a good Yuan Shao, known as "only to protect the people of one place, not to fight for an inch of land in China". At this point, Si Li's Lu Bu power collapsed. Only 800 fell into battle and the general Gao Shun threw himself to Lu Bu. And Lu Bu, who was in Yanzhou, knew that he had no hole cards, and he no longer lingered in Yanzhou, so he went to Qingxu and attached himself to Kong Rong and Liu Bei.
By October, the situation in China had become "stable." The number of princes was sharply reduced to thirteen, except for Zhang Miao, Zhang Ji, Kong Rong, and Lu Bu, and the rest of the princes all had more than one state of power. They are: Yanzhou, Yuzhou Cao Cao; Jizhou, and Yuan Shao; Youzhou Gongsun Zhan; Ma Teng, Liangzhou; SUN Ce, Yangzhou; Yizhou Liu Yan; Liu Biao of Jingzhou; Liu Bei, Xuzhou; Jiaozhou Wang Yifan.
According to the "Jiangxing" rating, Wang Yifan, who occupies Jiaozhou, Funan, Zhuya and Yi Islands, ranked first with a four-star rating. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who each occupy two states, are rated as three stars, Liu Bei, Sun Ce and others who are in charge of one state are rated as two stars, and Zhang Miao, Kong Rong, Lu Bu, and Zhang Ji, who only have one city, are rated as one star.
Stay until November, looking forward to ending the Three Kingdoms earlier, Wang Yifan will do it again. Send Wei Yan to the north, assassinate Zhang Miao and Zhang Ji, share the trouble with Ma Teng and Cao Cao, and then stir up the troubled waters of the Central Plains. At the end of the same month, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong disappeared, and his territory was taken by LΓΌ Bu and spread to the entire territory of Qingzhou. Since then, the "one-star" princes have all been destroyed, and the thirteen states of China have finally become a situation of "competing for hegemony".
In 196 AD, Cao Cao welcomed the Han Emperor to Xuchang, controlled the Eastern Han court, and obtained the political advantage that Yuan Shao wanted to take but did not get - "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes".
In this year, the Eastern Han Dynasty changed the name of the year again, and changed "Xingping" to "Jian'an", which was the first year of Jian'an.
-----------------------------------------------
It was exactly three years since 193.
In the past three years, Jiaozhou has been like the "subway" of China, no matter how chaotic Hebei and the Central Plains are on the "ground", it has always maintained a steady and fast pace of moving forward. Like the improvement of the "imperial examination system", like the rise of the dart board, like the reform of paper money, and so on, the progress of the state is no longer measurable in the era of the Three Kingdoms.
Because whether it is a "star" or a "secret technique", the benefits they bring are becoming more and more extensive. Especially after Wang Yifan built the academy in Jiaozhou. Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and others gave feedback on what they had learned almost endlessly. Just imagine, the practice mode is still "one-to-one", while the academies in Jiaozhou are "one-to-ten" or even "one-to-twenty" and "one-to-thirty", and the speed of the dissemination of knowledge can be seen from this.
In addition, Jiaozhou's "military service system" tends to mature, and the seven military positions of Wu, Shi, Bo, Tun, Qu, Ministry, and Battalion are gradually linked to the "Seven Forces of Martial Arts".
Let's talk about the seven forces examiner of Jiaozhou.
Except for the "Dragon God", no one is in office, and the other six forces are temporarily responsible for Wei Yan, Gan Ning, Zhang Jaw, Zhou Tai, Sha Moke, and Wang Yifan himself. Yes, temporary...
There is no other reason, only Wang Yifan's "obsessive-compulsive disorder".
In his own opinion, the optimal configuration of these seven examiners should be as follows:
"Wolf Technique" - Zhao Yun.
"The speed of the leopard" - Huang Zhong.
"The power of the tiger" - Guan Yu.
"Lion's Momentum" - Zhang Fei.
"The Power of the Bear" - Dian Wei.
"Elephant Qi" - Zuo Ci.
"God of Dragons" - Lu Bu.
Skills, skills, and superb moves, Zhao Zilong should be the first. Of course, it is more suitable for his master Tong Yuan. It's a pity that although there is really a child in this world, he has always lived in a fixed place and wandered outside the pass, so he can only let Zhao Yun replace him.
Speed, the essence lies in the word "reaction", compared to reaction, the marksman Huang Zhong is obviously ahead of everyone.
Might, power, the former is embodied in itself, and the latter affects the surroundings. Guan Yu shocked Huaxia, as the reincarnation of the Dragon Monarch of the South China Sea, and was not angry and self-assured. Zhang Fei drank off Changsaka, the candle dragon was evil, but the third master was jealous and hateful, and the evil did not possess the body, only the outside.
Force, as the name suggests, is the Horned Dragon Pawn Wei is indispensable. (Ceratosaurus, also known as "Kui Niu")
These five forces, including the "Dragon God", are relatively easy to understand, but the "Elephant Qi" is more complicated, after all, the method of controlling the Qi is somewhat biased towards Taoism, so the examiner who teaches "Qi", the best should be Zuo Ci, Nanhua and others. Needless to say, the "god of dragons" refers to the degree of awakening of an individual. At this point, Lu Bu had awakened as early as when he was born, and naturally no one was more qualified than him.
