The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Wherever there are people, there are interests. If the interests are unevenly distributed, sooner or later something will happen.

After Cao Cao took control of Yanzhou, official career channels also neglected Yanzhou itself. The foundation of force is his Qiao County Group, and the civil service system is the Yingchuan Group.

This makes the local gentry in Yanzhou very sad. We invited you here. Peace has been restored in Yanzhou. It’s time to divide the cake. You first share the resources with the untouchables in Qingzhou. We tolerated it, but Yanzhou natives did not win any key positions. , and even stepped in to give way!

This made the local gentry and wealthy people begin to think that you are not suitable to be our agent.

Inverted!

Must be opposed!

Otherwise, the whole family will have to finish playing sooner or later!

With the support of the nobles who have suppressed their rebelliousness for a long time, Chen Gong's matchmaking, and finally the addition of the brainless reckless Lu Bu, it's all ready!

There is another crucial point: Cao Cao's main force is now all in Xuzhou, and Yanzhou is empty. Isn't this the best gathering? !

Dry!

As Zhang Chao, Ying Shao and others raised the banner, the whole of Yanzhou responded quickly and collectively, and a premeditated rebellion officially kicked off. Starting from Lu Bu's first settlement in Puyang, which was Cao Cao's earliest base in Dongjun, the remaining counties and dozens of counties under Cao Cao's jurisdiction all rebelled independently.

A devastating crash is always an internal problem!

As for Cao Cao, the cause and effect caused by the manslaughter of Lu Boxe finally broke out at this moment.

Chen Gong, once a close friend, stabbed Cao Cao in the back.

Without him, it's hard to say whether anyone would dare to be the leader.

Without him, it’s hard to say whether anyone would have the connections and ability to organize such a big thing.

But Cao Cao only let go of Bai Yueguang, who was once in his heart! It caused immeasurable losses to myself!

Zhang Chao and Ying Shao decided to welcome a new Yanzhou shepherd, Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian. Zhang and Ying pushed Lu Bu to the front of the stage to leave a way out for themselves. It is always safer to support a puppet than to stand in front of the stage yourself.

Among them, the loudest rebels are Dongjun, Chenliu, Taishan and Shanyang, while the other counties may be waiting and watching.

More than a hundred cities, large and small, in Yanzhou were out of control. Only Juancheng, Fanxian and Dong'a were still under Cao Cao's actual control.

But among these three counties, one city has family members, one city is a granary, and one city is a key transit station! In the end, Cao Cao was able to breathe a sigh of relief and was not driven out of Yanzhou in one breath.

on one's last legs.

The person who helped Cao Cao breathe a sigh of relief was Xun Yu, a talented man named Wang Zuo.

At that time, Ying Shao, Chen Gong, and Zhang Chao not only connected with Wu Zi, the prefect of Jiyin, but also secretly communicated with many governors and officials in Juancheng, Cao Cao's base camp.

At that time, Chen Gong secretly summoned Lu Bu and arranged for Lu Bu to bypass Puyang, which was defended by Xiahou Dun, and go straight to Juancheng, Cao Cao's base camp.

It was Xun Yu who first noticed something was wrong. He wanted a military coup!

"Lü Bu came here without saying hello. He showed his courtesy without having anything to do. He is either a traitor or a thief!" It can only be said that he is worthy of being a talented king. His intuition is very accurate. Xun Yu immediately ordered the army to strengthen defenses and urgently summoned Xiahou Dun, the governor of Dongjun in Puyang, to come back. .

At the beginning, Cao Cao placed Xiahou Dun in Dongjun to guard against Liu Han in the north. This shows how heavy the burden was on Xiahou Dun, so Xiahou Dun had the most elite troops under Cao Cao.

Xiahou Dun was summoned back urgently. First, the Puyang where Xiahou Dun was stationed was too close to Chen Liu, Zhang Chao, and Jiyin Wu Zi. If Lu Bu had entered Yanzhou, Puyang would have become an isolated island at this time, and Xiahou Dun would most likely die on his own without any precautions. Human hands. Second, Xun Yu urgently needed the elites in Xiahou Dun's hands. This was the confidence to defeat the rebels.

Xiahou Dun was very obedient. After hearing Xun Yu's alarm, he quickly led his troops to abandon Puyang and head to Juancheng lightly. Firstly, there were "few soldiers left behind" in Juancheng. Secondly, Juancheng's defenders were not as reliable as Xiahou Dun. The most important thing was that there were small families of Cao Cao and other generals in Juancheng, so there could be no loss.

If Juancheng is lost, even if Cao Cao comes back with tens of thousands of troops, he will still be afraid because the rebels threaten the lives of his family, and Yanzhou will definitely not be able to stay any longer.

If nothing else, there was an accident. When Xiahou Dun was withdrawing from Puyang, he happened to bump into Lu Bu. When Lu Bu saw Xiahou Dun suddenly appearing in Juancheng, he knew that the sneak attack plan had failed. Juancheng was already prepared and difficult to conquer.

After thinking about this, he also knew that Chen Gong's plan had been discovered, so he no longer had too much entanglement with Xiahou Dun, gave up the plan to raid Juancheng, and instead rushed to Puyang. Not only did he gain this important town in Dongjun, he also gained All the baggage and equipment left by Xiahou Dun.

When the first plan failed, another one came up. Lu Bu followed Chen Gong's plan and sent his generals to pretend to surrender. He took the opportunity to kidnap Xiahou Dun with Xiahou Dun's men and demanded precious supplies from him.

After fighting for so many years, Xiahou Dun never thought that things would turn out like this, taking hostages? How could such a shameless thing be done between the two armies? !

Fortunately, Han Hao, who had escaped from death in Hanoi and defected to Cao Cao, stood up at this moment. He was a gangster, who could compare to him without morals? Han Hao didn't care whether there were hostages or not. Killing the thieves was more important. Since he was holding hostages, let's die together.

This failed the kidnappers. Seeing that Han Hao didn't look like he was lying, he really wanted to kill them. The kidnappers were scared, so they gave up the hostages and surrendered. Han Hao refused, and still ordered them to be executed after they surrendered. Only then did they save their lives. The camp is stable.

With Xiahou Dun being rescued, Juancheng's defense was strengthened. The newly appointed Taishan Governor Xue Ti also abandoned Taishan County, and the strategy shrank back to the vicinity of Dong'a. Cao Cao's remaining power in Yanzhou was partially preserved by shrinking.

The outside of Juancheng was temporarily stable, but there were still undercurrents inside, and there were still powerful internal responses from Yanzhou's local nobles. The next thing Xiahou Dun had to do was to completely stabilize Juancheng.

Therefore, it was most important to punish the officials in the city who were colluding with the rebels. Dozens of rebels were arrested and executed that night. Among those executed were Cao Cao's lieutenants Xu Si and Wang Kai, generals Xu Xi, Mao Hui, anyway, after Xiahou Dun's vigorous operations, Juancheng was initially stabilized.

Where is Cao Cao at this time?

The man had just received the news and was on his way back with all his strength.

What makes Cao Cao troubled is the constant harassment of Cao Cao's retreating troops by the locals in Xuzhou. Cao Cao killed too many people in Xuzhou, and now retribution is coming. If he retreats with all his strength regardless of the obstruction, he will definitely be bitten off by the locals in Xuzhou. ; If the resistance forces are cleared, retreating the army will inevitably waste a lot of time, and what Cao Cao lacks most now is time. For a while, Cao Cao was in a dilemma, and finally gritted his teeth, traded losses for time, and retreated with all his strength.

The reduced staff can be replenished, but if Yanzhou is lost, it will become a lost dog!

Cao Cao finally returned to the table where heroes were competing for hegemony. He didn't want to go back to being so weak and helpless, wandering around after asking for Dong, and having to look at people's faces to do anything. (End of chapter)
