Xiliang Iron Cavalry

At this time, the Jingzhou Army had just retreated, and Kuai Liang, an important mission in Jingzhou, appeared in the Yellow Turban Army. middle.

"My lord was invited by Liu Xuande, the shepherd of Yuzhou, to lead his troops to Yuzhou. Unexpectedly, Cai Mao disobeyed my lord's order and clashed with your army. As a result, the two sides faced each other with swords and soldiers.

Kuai Liang continued: "My lord sent me here in the hope that the two families could reconcile and reconcile. Of course, General Cai Mao was punished for this matter."

Guo Da felt like a bright mirror in his heart, "Master Kuai, I am afraid that the Jiangdong Army has caused Jingzhou to suffer, and has no time to take care of Yuzhou."

Kuai Liang said with a disapproving smile: "Marshal Guo, I have a hundred thousand soldiers in Jingzhou, thousands of miles of fertile fields, and there are so many good fighters, so what about the Xiliang Army in Chang'an?"

"My lord hopes to form an alliance with Marshal Guo, and I hope he can consider it."

"Lord Kuai goes down first, this matter is of great importance, let me think about it."

Kuai Liang stood up, cupped his hands, and walked out of the tent of the Chinese army. Guo Da has been able to rule the world for many years, and he must have his extraordinary side. Choosing to form an alliance with the Jingzhou Army has many benefits. Of course, this kind of alliance is in the eyes of powerful people. Just like children playing house, no one really trusts each other completely.

"Mr. Yu, what do you think of Kuai Liang's coming to form an alliance with our army?"

Yu Dan pondered for a moment and said: "Commander, our army seems to be stable at this time, but in fact it is not. When Cao's army captures Peiguo, it will definitely face the threat from the Yanzhou army. Then Cao Cao has a good command of the army, and his soldiers are extremely elite. There is no way to resist, and our army must take advantage of this opportunity to develop its strength, otherwise it will be dangerous. We will form an alliance with Liu Biao and temporarily relieve the threat from Jingzhou. Then Liu Biao is one of the eight horses and a member of the royal family. It is expected that he will not back down. Our army can also allocate more troops to deal with Cao's army. As long as we block Cao's army and gradually develop its strength, Jingzhou will not dare to act rashly. Fighting is cheaper than Sun Ce of Jiangdong and Cao Cao of Yanzhou."

"Mr. Yu's words are reasonable, but Liu Biao in Jingzhou is the clan of the Han Dynasty, and our army bears the name of a traitor. How could he form an alliance with our army? Could it be that he paralyzed our army and took the opportunity to attack the city?" Guo Da worried.

"My lord's words are not unreasonable. Liu Biao has a great reputation, so it is expected that the alliance will only be in secret. Otherwise, how will he face the world's rumors." Yu Dan said.

The next day, Guo Da met Kuai Liang again and agreed to make an alliance, but the alliance between the two parties was in secret. Guo Da was always the Yellow Turban rebel.

Kuai Liang rushed back to Jingzhou satisfied with the good news, and the Yellow Turban Army was also actively preparing for the battle, ready to meet Cao's army from Peiguo.

At the same time, the first strong city on the prairie was finally built. The five-foot-high city wall was extremely precipitous in the eyes of the prairie people.

The construction of the city wall is entirely made of cement. The one-foot-thick city wall is enough to match the three-foot-thick city walls in the Central Plains. The cement is not only strong, but also the city wall is extremely smooth. It is very difficult for enemy soldiers to attack the city wall. .

On the city, there are many arrow towers, and the patrolling soldiers are constantly coming and going, showing everyone the extraordinaryness of this city.

This city was built in Danhan Mountain Royal Court, and Jia Rong named it after Danhan.

After the city was built, there was nothing else in the city except for the simple houses of the grassland people. The construction of such a city has already emptied the well-to-do warehouses of the Xiliang Army. Historically, even during times of war, some businessmen have gone to the grasslands in desperation.

The grassland is rich in fur, war horses, cattle and sheep. Merchants seek profit. Even in times of war, they still go to the grassland to do business. What's more, the situation in the grassland is stable now. Apart from the long distance, there is no other danger. There is an endless stream, but in Jia Rong's view, Chang'an is more than one grade away.

Xianbei people saw with their own eyes how a strong city was gradually built on the grassland. Some tribes in Xianbei lived on Danhan City. Xianbei people can choose to help build the city in the city, get money, or graze on the grassland. Under the protection of the Xiliang Army, their property and lives are safe, and the Xiliang Army will be in charge, so they don't have to worry about the horse thieves on the grassland and the bullying of the big tribes.

The Xiliang Army helped the Xianbei tribes on the prairie to survive a difficult winter, and the grudges against the Xiliang Army in the hearts of these herdsmen on the prairie have also eased a lot. Many herdsmen are willing to go to the city to find work, and then buy one A simple house, the city blocked the cold, which made the herdsmen feel very comfortable. They attacked the Han people repeatedly, so they envied that the Han people could live in a strong city, without worrying about food and clothing, and not having to suffer from the wind and sand.

The situation in the grassland gradually stabilized, and the strength of the Xianbei tribes plummeted. Without soldiers, if you don't work hard, you may even have a problem with making ends meet. Accustomed to the extravagant life, coupled with the fact that Tan Khan has gradually become prosperous, how can he stand it, and batch after batch of servants are sold as slaves by them.

Jia Rong never refused anyone who came. As long as these slaves performed well, they might break away from this status and become ordinary people, which won the hearts of many herdsmen.

In Peiguo, no matter how brave Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are, it is still difficult to stop the defeat of the Yuzhou army. The food and grass in the city will soon be unsustainable.

In the end, Cao Jun captured Peiguo and owned the land of Liangguo, Peiguo and Chenguo in Yuzhou, while Guo Da occupied the two counties of Yingchuan and Runan, and owned most of Yuzhou. escape.

Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan of Jizhou fought for a long time without success, and each withdrew their troops, and the world regained its stability.

Of course, the development on the grassland has not been hidden from the princes' eyeliner. The financial resources in Jia Rong's hands have shocked the princes. It is hard to imagine, if Jia Rong used the money to develop his army, how many soldiers would he have under his command, 50 or a million?

Guo Da expressed his willingness to surrender to the imperial court. This was also a decision made under Shan's repeated persuasion. Now the Han Dynasty exists in name only, and it is in the hands of powerful princes. Even Cao Cao in Yanzhou may only rely on the reputation of the emperor. After the surrender, the officials of the Han Dynasty who are serious and honest, their military strength has not weakened in the slightest, and they have obtained official positions. The coach Guo Da is an official of the imperial court, that's all. Although the Han Dynasty is weak, it still holds the appointment of the world's official positions in its hands. However, such an imperial decree has no deterrent effect on a behemoth like the Xiliang Army. With soldiers in their hands and money in their hands, official positions are second.

Facing the surrender of Guo Da, the ministers of the DPRK and Central Committee sparked heated discussions. From the beginning to the end, Cao Cao stood aside with a smile on his face, watching the debate of hundreds of officials. For more than a year, Cao Cao was repeatedly oppressed by officials with righteousness Naturally, he felt a little unhappy. Of course, he never thought of giving up the Han Emperor. The banner of the Han Emperor is quite acceptable in terms of righteousness. Under the imperial decree, anyone who disobeys is a traitor.

At this time, Cao Cao really had the world in mind, and he wanted to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty and leave his name in history. At the beginning, Xu Zijiang once commented on Cao Cao's "capable minister of governing the world". Apart from bickering, the officials at the top would not take out all the power of their own family at all, which made Cao Cao feel a little chilled. The big man had been reduced to such a point, and the family was still arguing endlessly over petty gains.

Although Cao Cao, who has military power, has less influence than Jia Rong and Dong Zhuo by five points, he still has a strong influence. After being oppressed by Jia Rong and Dong Zhuo for so long, the ministers also understand the benefits of having military power in their hands. Now is not the time when the Han Dynasty is at its peak , an era when literati casually suppressed warriors.

Cao Cao's disobedience to Emperor Han's order once made the courtiers a little bit upset. Some officials even accused Cao Cao of being wrong in person. Like Jia Rong and Dong Zhuo, who only know how to fight on the battlefield, the officials have become more courageous, especially Cao Cao has always remained silent in the court, and he seems to be obedient to the words of the Holy Majesty, and he did not ask the Emperor Han For his promotion, the ministers gradually woke up from the shadow of Jia Rong and Dong Zhuo. They are officials of the big man, with talents in their chests, and their official positions are higher than Cao Cao. A few accusations are nothing.

Continually neglecting, the officials also realized the horror of Cao Cao. Unlike Jia Rong and Dong Zhuo's murder for no reason, Cao Cao will give you a charge of rebellion, even if you are in the court, you can't embarrass yourself.

The persecution of officials once made Cao Cao's methods more brutal. For example, Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Huang Wan and others in the court, relying on their positions as the three princes, made trouble for Cao Cao overtly and secretly. At that time, Yanzhou was facing unprecedented difficulties. With one heart and one mind to tide over the difficulties, the officials did not do too much, so Cao Cao didn't take it to heart.

Cao Cao's blind forbearance brought about the arrogance and domineering of the officials. What made him unbearable was that the officials stretched their hands and feet to the barracks. Before the Han Emperor passed by, he restrained himself and had money in his hands. If he wanted to form an army, he naturally hoped that Cao Cao could support.

In a rage, Cao Cao ignored the dissuasion of his counselors, and resolutely eradicated several officials, cutting the weeds and rooting out the roots, cutting first and then playing, so that the courtiers saw Cao Cao's methods, as if they saw Dong Zhuo's figure from Cao Cao.

If Jia Rong is a fierce tiger, then Cao Cao can be called a poisonous snake. He is silent and chatting and laughing one moment, and the next moment he is surrounded by soldiers.
