Xiliang Iron Cavalry

After adapting to the gentle Cao Cao, many officials are at a loss, especially the Dong family. As the representative who is most right with Cao Cao recently, they are naturally the first to bear the brunt. Of course, the bearers of the anger are some officials who follow the Dong family. In any case, they are all relatives of the emperor, and Cao Cao has not had the courage to move yet.

Compared with Jia Rong, Cao Cao's method was even more extreme. He directly killed the official Manchu, and the bloody method shocked the court officials.

At this time, many officials realized that Cao Cao was not Yi Yi's generation. He kept silent in the past, but he didn't bother arguing with officials. .

Emperor Han was a little dissatisfied with Cao Cao killing ministers without permission, but Cao Cao has always respected his opinions. In addition, since he became the throne, he has seen officials being killed the most, and gradually he got used to it. In addition to the poor clothing, the Han emperor still has a good feeling for Yanzhou.

Yuan Shao went to the imperial court to recruit the Black Mountain Yellow Turban, which once again caused waves in the imperial court.

Who is Yuan Shao, from the Yuan family of the fourth generation and the third lord, and is the representative of the family in the Han Dynasty. He did not expect to plead for the Yellow Turban Army. His intention was obvious, and he took the Yellow Turban for his own use. Of course, many ministers also saw it clearly. Given the current situation in Jizhou, with the Youzhou Army and Xiliang Army staring at it outside, and the Yellow Turban disaster inside, such Jizhou is bound to not last long, and Yuan Shao's approach is indeed a wise move.

It's just that regarding Yuan Shao's behavior, the officials felt a little uncomfortable. Did the former leader of the coalition force abandon righteousness for the sake of his own strength?They seem to have forgotten that when Cao Cao pacified Qingzhou, Cao Cao had dispersed the Yellow Turban soldiers and divided them into various armies.

Yuan Shao's appearance was also out of helplessness. He secretly recruited the Black Mountain Army to his subordinates, which was more than a hundred times stronger than this kind of public appearance. Of course, he could understand his thoughts, but he only recruited them after seeing the current strength of the Yellow Turbans. Once they lost power, they would be the first to be killed.

Yuan Shao was the leader of the coalition at the beginning, and his own reputation among the princes of the Central Plains is unquestionable. Forgive him for not losing his word in front of the people of the world.

With the help of the Yellow Turban Army in Montenegro, the strength of the Jizhou Army has soared. There are about 20 soldiers who can fight. The increase in troop strength does not seem to be good news for Jizhou. There are many old and weak women and children, which increases the expenditure of Jizhou. Although Jizhou is rich in money and food, it can't afford such a toss.

Along with strength, ambition also grows. Gongsun Zan in Youzhou has always been a lump in Yuan Jun's heart. No one can guarantee whether the Xiliang Army will fight Jizhou. In this case, it is better to take the initiative to attack. Among the princes, Yuan Shao can also be called a strategist. He has fought for many years, with more victories and fewer losses. He has been familiar with military books since he was a child.

In the spring of the third year of Xingping, Yuan Shao personally led an army of [-] to attack Youzhou. At this time, there were Wuhuan people in the border county of Youzhou, and the interior was not stable. Liu Yu had a high reputation in Youzhou. Gongsun Zan always The method used is to kill, and the foreign races at the border are also killed. "Slaying" has become an important strategy for Gongsun Zan to govern the army and the country. He used strong means to govern the foreign races and the people. It is normal for the generals to appear on the body of Gongsun Zan.

Yuan Shao led [-] Jizhou elites into Youzhou. At this time, there were no worries in Jizhou, and the soldiers were strong and strong. It is fleeting, Yuan Shao doesn't want to miss it.

The Wuhuan people are brave and good at fighting, and they have always been the main force invading the Youzhou border. After Xianbei was defeated by the Xiliang army, the Wuhuan people were depressed for a while.

Gongsun Zan was so busy that he learned that Yuan Shao led an army of [-] to invade, and he hurriedly dispatched troops to fight against him while cursing.

A premeditated civil strife made the Youzhou army busy with it. Yuyang's officer Xian Yufu was a general under the former Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, and he was highly valued. It was a secret plan, with the intention of avenging Liu Yu, and the rebellion of the Wuhuan people had a lot to do with Xian Yufu's instigation.

This time, Xian Yufu united with the Wuhuan people, and elected Yan Rou, who had always been relatively prestigious among Youzhou officials, as the commander. He commanded more than [-] troops and attacked cities and territories all the way. Wherever he passed, all the officials surrendered.

After Gongsun Zan ruled Youzhou, he became arrogant and domineering, and even upheld the idea of ​​killing the Wuhuan people quickly. At that time, Gongsun Zan was strong and strong, and Wuhuan could not win, so he could only endure in secret.

What the Wuhuan people hate the most is Gongsun Zan. When Liu Yu was here, the Wuhuan people rebelled repeatedly, and they were able to get a lot of supplies. When Gongsun Zan ruled Youzhou, all he got were knives, guns and blood. Wuhuan is especially famous. Even if he was defeated and surrendered, he would order to kill him without hesitation. Gongsun Zan has always firmly believed in the saying that "people who are not of our race must have different hearts", and he has been silently implementing it for many years.

Moreover, in order to support the war with Yuan Shao in Jizhou, Gongsun Zan increased the taxation of the people, making the people miserable. In Youzhou, people starved to death everywhere. What made the officials and generals of the Youzhou Army even more chilling was that Gongsun Zan had done too much good work and could not tolerate it. There were voices of opposition under the rule, which greatly violated Liu Yu's original idea of ​​governing Youzhou. Compared with the two, the officials began to miss the old master Liu Yu.

Xian Yufu's rebellion gave the Wuhuan people hope, and immediately sent more than [-] reinforcements to Yan Rou. These Wuhuan people were all elite soldiers, how could the soldiers that Gongsun Zan recruited temporarily be able to resist.

However, in two months, Youzhou was full of wars, and Gongsun Zan was exhausted. The Youzhou army, which was famous all over the world at the time, showed a state of exhaustion.

Yan Rou was an official under Liu Yu at the beginning. He was generous and well-versed in strategy. When Gongsun Zan resisted Liu Yu's order and killed the Wuhuan soldiers who surrendered without authorization, he once suggested that Liu Yu lead his troops to attack Gongsun Zan, and then he ruled the country. The crime of Gongsun Zan was persuaded by Guan Jing and Gongsun Ji under Liu Yu's tent, and then he was defeated and killed. It can be said that Yan Rou's heart can't be solved. grace.

After Liu Yu's death, Guan Jing, Gongsun Ji and other Youzhou officials took refuge in Gongsun Zan and were reused.

Yan Rou commanded the army well, but the captured cities did not harm the people, the officials who voluntarily surrendered kept their positions, and the cities that resisted desperately, killed the officials first after entering the city, and their momentum grew day by day.

Youbeiping fell one after another in Guangyang Shanggu, Daijun, and the morale of the Zan army was low.

Losing so many territories one after another made Gongsun Zan even more brutal in his rage. At the same time, he no longer trusted the generals and officials under his command as before, and he was escorted by the army when he traveled, restricting the generals' rights.

After Yuan Shao got the news from Youzhou, he laughed heartily. Gongsun Zan, the tiger of Youzhou, was hit. It was the time when the Jizhou army was showing its might. Since Gongsun Zan occupied Jizhou, the relationship with Gongsun Zan has been in a deteriorating stage, and the two sides have been fighting endlessly. , Now we have to solve it, how can we not be happy.

At this time, the Xiliang army put all its energy on the grassland, and had no time to take into account the situation in Youzhou. No matter how strong the army was, it would be useless without food and grass as a backing. Yuan Shao believed that Jia Rong understood this, and almost all the elite troops in Jizhou Pulled to the battlefield in Youzhou.

Yuan Shao encountered the biggest opportunity to develop his own strength and annexed Youzhou, then the military strength of Jizhou Army will become the leader of the princes. On the other hand, Jia Rong just occupied the bitter cold land of Liangzhou in Bingzhou. Jizhou is rich and well-known in the world. With food and soldiers, how far Yuan Shao will grow by then.

"Gongsun Zan of Youzhou has done a lot of evil, and the blame is his own. Now the ruler is in rebellion, wars are everywhere, and the people are in dire straits. I am the leader of the princes. I should lead my troops to restore the world. Now Yan Rou and others occupy Youbeiping Yuyang and other places, and the army is strong. , and our army has come from afar and is not familiar with the terrain of Youzhou, who is willing to go to Yan Rou's army to persuade them to attack Gongsun Zan together?" Yuan Shao said with a smile on his face.

Everyone in the tent was silent, Gongsun Zan of Youzhou was a tiger and wolf, who knew what kind of person Yan Rou was, if he disagreed with each other, he died in a foreign land, how sad it is!

Xu You rolled his eyes, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the former Master Ju went to the Black Mountain Army alone and made great contributions to our army. Why don't you send him there this time?"

Yuan Shao nodded approvingly and said, "Mr. Xu's words are very true. I wonder what Mr. Ju thinks?"

Ju Shou cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to serve my lord!"

Jushou sent the envoy Yan Roujun, and Yuan Shao also led the army all the way to the five counties. Now the people in Youzhou are in panic, and Yuan Shao in Jizhou is coming.

Gongsun Zan's cruelty and inhumanity made the generals and officials under his command a little timid, and they worked conscientiously. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zan would execute them because of a trivial matter, and completely forgot the past achievements. Guan Jing repeatedly advised him, but he could not change it. It seems that Gongsun Zan is a little disheartened. In the past, he was able to listen to all advice, but now once a decision is made, it will never be changed. The bloody cases have forced Youzhou officials to think about their future. .

When Yan Rou heard that the Jizhou Army Jushou was coming, she hurried out to meet him.

"Mr. Ju came all the way, it's hard work." Yan Rou motioned for Ju Shou to sit down.

Ju Shou cupped his hands and said, "Su asked General Yan Zhongyi, and it was indeed the case when I saw it today. Master Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, died tragically. My general was also sad and angry, and denounced that old thief Gongsun Zan. Now my lord has led an army of one hundred thousand to enter In the border of Youzhou, if you want to join forces with the generals to attack the old thief Gongsun, I wonder what General Yan thinks?"
