Let's say that Cao Cao took Yanzhou Mu according to what Chen Gong said, and regarded Chen Gong as his confidant.

On this day, Chen Gong was summoned and informed of the plan to appease the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army agreed with Xun Yu.

Chen Gong agreed very much, so according to Cao Cao's plan, he led people to infiltrate Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and spread the news of Cao Mengde's use of five-colored rods to punish evil in the northern lieutenant of Luoyang and the prohibition of obscenity in Jinan, saying that Cao Cao had no intention of injuring the rebel people, and was willing to live together in peace and treat the people well. If Yanzhou can be governed by Cao Gong, it will definitely be able to live and work in peace and contentment.

In this way, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and Cao Cao's good governance behavior spread among the common people.

Xu He, Sima Ju, and Guan Hai listened to the rumors and discussed that although the righteous army had millions of people, only about 300,000 could charge into battle, and Qingzhou was occupied by Yuan Shao's subordinate Zang Hong, so they could not replenish supplies in time, and once they failed, they would definitely affect the families of the sergeants and hundreds of thousands of people.

If Cao Cao can really treat the people well and give preferential treatment to the soldiers as the rumors say, it is not impossible to accept appeasement.

So he sent a message to Cao Cao, to the effect that what Cao Cao did in the past when he was the prime minister of Jinan and destroyed the altar was considered by the Yellow Turban Army to be consistent with their "Zhonghuang Taiyi Dao".

Because the Yellow Turban Army only respects the Yellow Emperor and Lao Tzu, "does not worship other gods", it is forbidden to destroy other gods and ghosts.

The Yellow Turban Army regarded Cao Cao as a "fellow believer", and fantasized about persuading Cao Cao not to be "confused" and not to be an enemy of the Yellow Turban Army.

Cao Cao "explained the way to surrender" to the Yellow Turban Army, which was struggling with supplies, saying that he would guarantee that after they surrendered, they would not be abused and killed like other warlords, and that everyone would have a field and everyone could live a good life.

After Cao Cao promised, the Yellow Turban Army saw that Cao Cao was indeed different from other warlords, and coupled with his good impression of him, they accepted the appeasement.

After months of deliberation and negotiation, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army finally accepted Cao Cao's incorporation.

However, the three leaders of Xu He, Sima Ju, and Guan Hai were still not at ease, fearing that once there was a change, the righteous army would be put in a dangerous situation from which they could never recover, their families would be affected, and the people would suffer, so they arranged for three lieutenants to be in charge of the army and accept Cao Cao's recruitment.

The three of them led the original 3,000 soldiers and horses to move to other places, secretly peep, and once the situation changed, they would contact the three lieutenant generals to deal with it.

After Cao Cao recruited the Yellow Turban Army, he selected more than 30,000 elite people from the 300,000 Yellow Turban Army that could fight and was reorganized, known as the "Qingzhou Soldiers".

In order to dispel the worries of the sergeants, and more importantly, to build a stable logistics base that can provide grain and grass for the army, Cao Cao arranged most of the rest, including the families of the soldiers and soldiers, as soldiers who cultivated the fields, laying the foundation for the army to settle the fields in the future.

Cao Cao successfully surrendered the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, occupied Yanzhou, stabilized the situation in Yanzhou, and was crowned as the general of Zhendong by the imperial court, and his prestige grew.

In order to implement the strategy of "deep-rooted", Cao Cao used both virtue and prestige to recruit rebels, repair farming, and reserve military funds; On the one hand, it is eclectic, recruiting talents, recruiting talents, and constantly expanding the strength of the army.

Xun Yu recommended Cheng Yu, and Cao Cao visited the countryside.

One of Cao Cao's most important strategists, Xi Zhicai, died.

In addition to being sad, Cao Cao wrote to Xun Yu and asked him to recommend a strategist who could replace Xi Zhicai.

So, Xun Yu recommended his friend Guo Jia to Cao Cao.

Guo Jiazi Fengxiao, a native of Yangzhai (now Yuzhou, Henan), was very far-sighted when he was a teenager, and knew that the world would be in chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, and he lived in seclusion after the age of 20, secretly befriending Yingjie, and did not interact with the world, so he was not known by too many people.

Guo Jia traveled north to see Yuan Shao, and said to Yuan Shao's advisers Xin Ping and Guo Tu: "A wise man can measure his master prudently and thoughtfully, so that all measures are very thorough, so that he can make meritorious contributions." Yuan Gong only wanted to emulate Zhou Gong's Corporal Lixian, but he didn't know the truth of using talents. Thinking a lot and lacking the essentials, like to plan but not decisive, it is really difficult to save the country from danger with him and build the great cause of being the king and hegemonic! ”

So he left Yuan Shao from then on.

In this way, Guo Jia has been idle for six years.

Guo Jia knew that Cao Cao was eloquent and was recommended by Xun Yu, so he took Xun Yu's letter of recommendation to see Cao Cao.

Cao Cao met with Guo Jia and discussed the world's major affairs, and after the discussion, Cao Cao said: "The person who can help me achieve great things is him!" ”

After Guo Jia left the camp, he also said very happily: "This is my real master!" ”

Guo Jia recommended Liu Ye again, Liu Ye recommended Man Chong and Lu Qian, and the two recommended Mao Jue, and Cao Cao was also hired to discuss the world's major events.

Wu will be banned, and the text is that the people of Juping, Taishan County, Yanzhou (now southwest of Tai'an, Shandong) led hundreds of people to vote.

Cao Cao saw that he was skilled in bows and horses and outstanding in martial arts, so he was ordered to be the commander of the army.

One day, Xiahoudun introduced Dian Wei to see him, saying that he had raised his head in the downtown area, and hundreds of people were defeated, and dozens of people were stabbed; Fight the tiger across the stream, and be brave.

It turned out that this Dian Wei was a native of Jiwu in Chenliu County (now southwest of Ningling, Henan), with a burly appearance, excellent arm strength, great ambition, a chivalrous personality, and a love to stand out for others.

The Liu family of Xiangyi (now Sui County, Henan) and Li Yong, a native of Suiyang (now Shangqiu, Henan), had enemies against each other, and Dian Wei took revenge for the Liu family.

Li Yong once served as the chief of Fuchun, and his home guards were very strict.

When Li Yong walked out of the mansion, Dian Wei took out a dagger from his arms to intercept Li Yong, and killed Li Yong's wife, then took out the knife and halberd on the car and walked slowly, leaving on foot.

Since Li Yong's residence was close to the bazaar, the entire bazaar was shocked.

Although there were hundreds of people chasing after Dian Wei, no one dared to approach.

Dian Wei traveled four or five miles, met Li Yong's partner, and the two sides fought.

Li Yong's partners were all defeated, and since then Dian Wei has been praised and appreciated by heroic knights.

During the early peace period, Dong Zhuo in Liangzhou was in turmoil, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao and Cao Cao raised a righteous army to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and Zheng Dian Wei was a sergeant, subordinate to Sima Zhaozhong.

Dozens of fellow villagers under Zhao Pet's tent had a discord with Dian Wei and had a dispute.

Dian Wei was furious, and dozens of people were stabbed in his hands, hiding in the mountains.

One day, suddenly saw a tiger coming down from the top of the mountain, Dian Wei hurriedly hid in the thorn bushes, waited for the tiger to approach, pulled out the halberd and stabbed the tiger, and hit the tiger's back.

The tiger took the halberd and fled in pain.

Dian Wei jumped over the mountain stream, took the halberd out, hit the tiger's hind buttocks, and rolled on the ground.

Dian Wei caught up, pulled out the halberd and smashed the tiger's head, and his brain burst when he landed.

Dian Wei was about to drag the tiger down the mountain, when he was hunting in the mountains of Xiahoudun, exchanged names, and was contained by Xiahoudun.

Xiahoudun saw that Cao Cao was eclectic and eager to recruit talents, so he recommended Dian Wei to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao saw that Dian Wei held two iron halberds, weighing more than 80 catties, when he tested his strength, he was surprised, so he untied the cotton jacket and the horse carved saddle on his body, and ordered him to be the captain in front of the tent.

At this time, Cao Cao Wen had strategists, martial arts had fierce generals, and the roots of the tree were established, and he shocked the Shandong Prefectures.

Let's say that Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao brothers turned against each other. Yuan Shu heard that Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou, and while contacting Gongsun Zan and asking him to send troops to contain Yuan Shao, he also encircled the remnants of the Montenegrin army and the Southern Xiongnu in Fuluo to help in the war, and waved his army to attack Yanzhou, hoping to eliminate Yuan Shao's ally Cao Cao's army in one fell swoop.

Yuan Shu garrisoned Fengqiu (now Fengqiu, Henan) and ordered his general Liu Xiang to be the vanguard.

Cao Cao led his army to meet the enemy and engaged the enemy in the area of Kuangting (southwest of present-day Changyuan, Henan), defeating Liu Xiang and the Xiongnu in Fuluo.

Yuan Shu hurriedly personally led the army to support, but he was still defeated and led the army to withdraw to Fengqiu.

Cao Cao led the army to chase the siege, Yuan Shu retreated to Yongqiu (Qi County, Henan), fled to Xiangyi, and returned to Shouchun through Ningling.

The defender Chen Yu did not let him enter the city, Yuan Shu retreated to Yinling, gathered troops to attack Chen Yu, and Chen Yu fled back to Xiapi. Cao Cao pursued all the way, chasing more than 600 miles.

Yuan Shu led the remnants to flee to Jiujiang County, killed Chen Wen, the assassin of Yangzhou, and led Yangzhou Mu, also known as Xuzhou Bo, and sealed Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui as generals.

However, it was said that after Li Dao and others invaded Chang'an, they wanted to befriend Yuan Shu, so they awarded Yuan Shu as the general of the left, and entered the Marquis of Yang Zhai, and sent Taifu Ma Riyan to various places to hold a ceremony for the marquis of the general.

Yuan Shu took the opportunity to snatch the military talisman carried by Ma Riyan, and then imprisoned him and did not let him return.

Yuan Shu sent troops to attack Yanzhou this time, but instead lost part of the city of Yuzhou, and returned with a big defeat, so he had to retreat in Yangzhou in order to protect himself.

It is said that Gongsun Zan responded to Yuan Shu's request and sent Liu Beitun Gaotang (now Gaotang in Liaocheng, Shandong), Shan Jingtun Plain, and his ally Tao Qiantun Fagan, and Qingzhou Thorn Shi Tian Kai in Shandong to threaten Yuan Shao, who occupied Jizhou.

Gongsun Zan was the Taishou of the Right Beiping, and it was under the jurisdiction of Youzhou Mu Liu Yu.

Liu Yu suspected that Gongsun Zhan was too reckless and fearful that it would be difficult to control, so he did not allow him to send troops again, and slightly weakened his authority.

Gongsun Zhan was furious, repeatedly violated orders, invaded the people, and repeatedly robbed Liu Yu of the items that Liu Yu was going to reward the nomads.

Liu Yu couldn't stop it, so he reported to the imperial court and told Gongsun Chan about his crime of plundering the people, and Gongsun Chan also reported Liu Yu's ineffective work.

The two blamed each other, but the court was powerless to deal with it.

Gongsun Zhan did not repair the city to guard against Liu Yu.

Liu Yu invited Gongsun Chan several times, but said that he was ill, and Liu Yu decided to lead 100,000 troops to attack Gongsun Zhan.

At that time, Gongsun Zhan lived in Dongcheng, and his subordinates were scattered, and when he heard that Liu Yu was coming, he wanted to flee in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yu issued a military order not to allow soldiers to damage people's houses and harass the people, resulting in a long-term attack.

Gongsun Zhan then recruited hundreds of elite soldiers, set fire to the wind, and took advantage of the situation to enter Liu Yu's barracks.

Liu Yu was defeated and fled north with his subordinates to Juyong County (present-day Yanqingdong).

Gongsun Zhan broke through Juyong City for three consecutive days, captured Liu Yu and his wife and children alive and returned to Jixian County.

At that time, Emperor Xian sent an envoy Duan Xun to increase Liu Yu's fiefdom, so that he would supervise the six states, promote Gongsun Zhan to the former general, and seal the Marquis of Yi.

However, Gongsun Zhan framed Liu Yu and Yuan Shao for conspiring to become emperor, coerced Duan Xun to behead Liu Yu and his wife and children in Jishi City, and sent Liu Yu's head to Jingshi.

Liu Yu's subordinates secretly followed him and robbed Liu Yu's head on the road to bury him.

After Gongsun Zhan killed Liu Yu, he got the entire Youzhou, becoming more and more arrogant, unsympathetic to the people, forgetting his demerits, and retribution, which caused the people's resentment to boil. Exactly: cherishing the people being trapped and dying, arrogant and tyrannical provoked public resentment. If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
