Chapter 617 The Heroes of Troubled Times Like the Abyss
In June, Yanzhou East County.

Under the leadership of Bai Rao, Yu Du, and Sui Gu, the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army marched northward to attack Wei County in Jizhou, restrained the troops of Mu Hanfu in Jizhou, and went southward in two directions, attacking the east of Yanzhou from the east and west. county.After more than two months of bloody battles, the Yellow Turban Army successfully advanced into Dongjun and successfully crossed the river from Puyang.
Yuan Shao commanded Cao Cao, Pan Feng, Han Qiong and other armies to fight and retreat.At the same time, Liu Dai, Minister of Yanzhou, Bao Xin, Minister of Jibei, Wang Lin, Minister of Dongping, Zheng Sui, Minister of Rencheng and other prefecture-county coalition forces were defeated by Sima Ju, the commander of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in Dong'e and Cangting. Immediately across the north.

In the middle of June, Yuan Shao and Liu Dai joined forces at Linqiu City in Jiyin County.Liu Dai and others are very worried about the future situation in Jizhou.If Jizhou is captured by the Yellow Turban Army, Yan and Qingzhou will have a hard time in the future.Yuan Shao comforted them with a smile. When I retreated from Qingshuikou, I urgently wrote to Grand Tutor Liu Yu, begging him to send troops to help.If all goes well, the [-] army of Gongsun Zan, the rebellious general, should have reached the southern part of Jizhou.As long as Gongsun Zan can stick to the southern part of Bohai County and the area around Ganling Kingdom, it will be difficult for the Yellow Turban Army to penetrate deep into the heart of Jizhou.In addition, Wang Kuang and Zhang Yang are currently recruiting soldiers in Hanoi. After a while, they can lead an army to attack Montenegro and threaten the Yellow Turban Army's lair.

Liu Dai was very happy to hear that Youzhou's reinforcements had gone south, and he suggested that Yuan Shao seek help from Tao Qian, governor of Xuzhou, and Zhou Gan, governor of Yangzhou. , Annihilated the Yellow Turban Army on both sides of the Yellow River.Yuan Shao quickly agreed.At this time, news came from Yuzhou that Zhou Ang was killed, Sun Jian was defeated, and Yan Liang and Tian Chou of the Northern Army occupied Yuzhou.Yuan Shao was furious. Regardless of the objections of Liu Dai and others, he instead ordered various supporting troops to go to Yuzhou to attack the Northern Frontier Army. At the same time, he secretly trusted Liu Biao to seize this opportunity and attack Nanyang. hit them hard.

Liu Dai, Bao Xin and others tried their best to persuade them.Everyone has just worked together to take down Luoyang, how can they turn against each other and form hatred for a Yuzhou?Let's put down the Yellow Turban rebellion first.Yuan Shao refused to listen and insisted on his own opinion.At this time, Liang Guo came to ask for help, saying that He Yi, the Yellow Turban Army, had led his army into Yuzhou.This was exactly what Yuan Shao wanted, so he immediately used this as an excuse to send troops to Yuzhou and silenced Liu Dai and others, "The disaster of the ant thief is nothing to worry about, sooner or later, we will put down sooner or later, but Dong Zhuo What about the disaster? Dong Zhuo’s disaster, when will we be able to calm it down? From Dong Zhuo’s disaster, we can predict that if the Hushi General occupies Luoyang, occupies Yuzhou, and controls the eldest princess and the court, then, will there be a disaster? Is it the second disaster of Dong Zhuo? May I ask, if the big man has the two great disasters of Dong Zhuo and Li Hong, when will we be able to stabilize the country?"

Yuan Shao resolutely said to Liu Dai and others: "We must stop Li Hong and the Northern Frontier Army from occupying Luoyang and Yuzhou at all costs. This is the only way to stabilize the country as soon as possible."

At the end of June, Guo Tu sent an astonishing news from Jizhou that the Northern Xinjiang Army entered Jizhou again.Zhang Yan led the army to quickly occupy Changshan and Zhongshan, and Qu Yi led the army to occupy Julu and Zhao Guo.Yuan Shao and the officials of the prefectures and counties were very surprised.As soon as Li Hong captured Luoyang, he couldn't wait to dispatch troops and generals to rob Yuzhou and Jizhou. What did he want to do?Want to dominate one side or want to usurp the country?

Guo Tu said in the letter that Gao Gan, Xin Ping, and Xun Chen and I arrived in Nanpi (Bohai County Government) and had already negotiated with Gongsun Zan.Gongsun Zan promised to help us drive away Han Fu and defeat the Yellow Turban Army, and then the Lord gave Gongsun Zan the two prefectures of Bohai and Hejian.Now Xin Ping, Xun Chen and I, as well as Gongsun Zan's chief historian Guan Jing, have arrived in Yecheng in Wei County.The situation in Wei County was very bad. The Yellow Turban Army Sui Gu was commanding an army to besiege Yecheng and nearby cities, and Qu Yi could lead his army from Handan at any time to capture Yecheng and occupy Wei County.Please go north quickly, my lord, I'm afraid it's too late.

Yuan Shao was shocked, and immediately organized troops to attack the Yellow Turban Army.

===

In mid-June, the Heishan Yellow Turban Army and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army successfully joined forces in Dongjun.

The leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in Montenegro, Bai Rao and Yu Du, and the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, Sima Ju, Xu He, and Guan Cheng met in Qinting. The two sides immediately began to discuss the next move of the Yellow Turban Army and the future of the Yellow Turban Army.

Sima Ju was one of the eight disciples of Zhang Jiao, the great virtuous teacher, and without any objection, he became the commander-in-chief of the Yellow Turban Army.Sima Ju believed that Qingzhou faced the sea on one side and faced enemies on three sides, so it was not suitable for the base of the Yellow Turban Army. "The base of the Yellow Turban Army is in Jizhou, and we should return to Jizhou."

Bai Rao objected.He carefully analyzed the situation, and believed that with Youzhou Gongsun Zan already heading south to Jizhou, and Northern Xinjiang was eyeing Jizhou again, Jizhou had become a dead place, and the Yellow Turban Army would suffer heavy losses after entering.Although the Yellow Turban Army has a large number of people, compared with the iron cavalry in Northern Xinjiang and Youzhou, it is really vulnerable.Bai Rao suggested that Sima Ju take Qingzhou as the base, and then use offense instead of defense to frequently attack Jizhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou, so as to buy enough time and loot enough supplies for the Yellow Turban Army to gain a firm foothold in Qingzhou.

Sima Ju smiled bitterly. He patted Bai Rao's shoulder and said, brother, it's not that I don't want to stay in Qingzhou, but that I can't stay in Qingzhou any longer.Look at the millions of refugees who follow us, they want to eat and survive.We fought for a year last year, and although we survived, we beat Yan, Qing, and Xu to nothing.Now, the only states and counties that have food and are close to us are Jizhou and Yuzhou.Not long ago, He Yi and Liu Pi took tens of thousands of people to the west. They wanted to lay down a piece of land in Yuzhou, and we went to Jizhou.

Bai Rao and Yu Du repeatedly dissuaded him, but Sima Ju, Xu He and others insisted on not obeying.Later, Bai Rao proposed a compromise, asking Xu He to lead 30 people to the north first, and then he and Yu Du retreated across the Yellow River, and then he and Xu He went to the north with each other on the left and right.Sima Ju stayed in Qingzhou to develop, and Guan Cheng led the army to fight in Yanzhou and Xuzhou to contain the troops of the prefectures and counties.If the northward attack is blocked, Sima Ju will lead his army northward to respond, and then everyone will return to Qingzhou together.In this way, regardless of success or failure, the Yellow Turban Army can retain a foothold and will not suffer the fate of being wiped out again.

Sima Ju agreed.The leaders of the various ministries made alliances with blood, and returned to their own troops, ready to fight for survival.

In June, Yecheng, Jizhou.

Facing the ensuing crises, Jizhou Mu Hanfu is under increasing pressure.

First, the eldest princess and the imperial court wrote to accuse him that, as the chief assistant in charge of state affairs in the imperial court, he ignored the law and even recruited an army from Youzhou to go south without permission.Recruiting the army is a matter for the eldest princess and the court. Even if the situation in Jizhou is extremely critical, you have to write a letter to say it at the same time, right?If Master Tai Tu hadn't written a letter to inform her, the eldest princess and the court would still be kept in the dark.Since you don't have the eldest princess and the court in your eyes, then what qualifications do you have to take charge of state affairs?Since Jizhou is more important than the imperial court and Dahan Sheji, then you can be your Jizhou shepherd with peace of mind.

Han Fu originally wanted to write a letter to defend himself, but after thinking about it, he forgot.Now the eldest princess and the imperial court are wholeheartedly helping the Hushi general, especially after Luoyang was conquered and the hope of winning King Dong Qin grew, they would not stand by themselves.Compared with the great cause of fighting against King Dong Qin and stabilizing the country, what is the safety of a Jizhou?Since you are ignoring the safety of Jizhou, then you go to ask King Dong Qin.I'd like to see, without Jizhou's money and food, how do you ask Dong Qin Wang.

Just at this time, the number of refugees in Jizhou surged, and [-] troops from Youzhou rushed south. The Jizhou Army and the Yellow Turban Army were fighting again. The food and pay of the Northern Xinjiang Army.The northern border army had no food and wages, and the great cause of begging King Dong Qin had to be temporarily put down.

The eldest princess and the court are furious. If there is chaos in Jizhou and you fail to challenge King Dong Qin, it will be your responsibility, Han Fu.General Hussars also sent a letter to criticize, but Li Hong said it very tactfully. He begged Han Fu to remember the country, restore the food supply as soon as possible, and support the Northern Xinjiang Army in attacking Guanzhong.

At the same time, the Jizhou Army suffered consecutive defeats in the battle with the Yellow Turban Army.Because Pan Feng betrayed Han Fu and ran away with Yuan Shao with [-] troops, only Zhao Fu and Cheng Huan's [-] troops were left in the Jizhou army, so their strength was obviously insufficient to defeat the Yellow Turban Army.Han Fu asked Gongsun Zan for support.

In mid-May, Gongsun Zan led his army to the southern part of Bohai County, and Tian Qian also led his army to Ganling Kingdom, but neither of them stood still.Tian Qian even used the shortage of food and salary as an excuse to retreat step by step, and gave up the entire Ganling Kingdom to Xu He of the Yellow Turban Army.The Prime Minister of Ganling Kingdom and more than 3000 soldiers from the counties had to fight alone, and all of them were killed.

Han Fu wrote three letters a day, urging him repeatedly.Gongsun Zan wrote back and said, it's not that I didn't go to support, nor that I didn't want to fight, but that I was too hungry to lift a knife.The [-] troops in Youzhou haven't been paid for a year. I wonder if my lord can make up for it?
Han Fu was bitter, and his words went too far, which angered Gongsun Zan.Gongsun Zan was usually very disgusted with famous people, but now that he saw Han Fu's accusation, he became even more furious, "You want the horse to run, and you want the horse not to eat grass. What do you think we are? Your family's servants? If you don’t pay me any more, I’ll leave immediately.”

Han Fu had no choice but to raise money and food everywhere, and asked for help from the three counties of Bohai, Hejian and Anping.The government offices of Bohai and Anping counties wrote back, saying that the prefect Yuan Shao and the country's prime minister Zhang Qi were not there, and these low-ranking officials could not be the masters.The Prime Minister of the Hejian Kingdom wrote back that since you are uncertain about the affairs of Jizhou, you should leave as soon as possible, so as not to harm others and yourself in the future, and lead to the disaster of the nine clans.

Although Han Fu was very angry, he was also very frustrated. He was disheartened and wanted to leave.Chief Shi Gengwu, Biejia Minchun and a group of subordinates tried their best to dissuade him.

Han Fu urgently wrote to Liu Yu, asking him to persuade Gongsun Zan.Gongsun Zan was not polite, and sent Liu Yu back with a letter. Does your lord know why the grain in Youzhou only sells for [-] yuan a stone?That's because you deducted the military pay of [-] soldiers in Youzhou, and withheld the military rations of [-] soldiers.For more than a year, the [-] soldiers only ate one meal a day and did not receive a single payment.His lordship became famous all over the world, but the soldiers of Youzhou paid a huge price for it.The Youzhou soldiers had no complaints, they supported and supported Your Excellency hungry, but what kind of return did Your Excellency give the Youzhou soldiers?My lord let us go south thousands of miles hungry to attack and kill the Yellow Turban Army.The imperial court has the northern border army, and Jizhou has the county soldiers. Why are they unwilling to send troops?Why should we send our soldiers from Youzhou to die?Could it be that our Youzhou soldiers are born with lowly fate, and are born to be a tool for your lord Tai Tuo to win fame?

Liu Yu was in a hurry, so he wrote back to Gongsun Zan, it's fine if you don't want to fight, get out of here immediately, and I'll go to Jizhou to lead troops to fight.Upon hearing the news, Tian Qian hurriedly dissuaded the roaring Gongsun Zan, and then wrote a confession in Gongsun Zan's name.Liu Yu was the Grand Tutor, and Li Hong, Xian Yufu and many lower-level officers in the Northern Border Army were all former officials of Liu Yu. Once Liu Yu really ordered to deprive Gongsun Zan of his military power, things would get out of hand.

Gongsun Zan became impatient, and shouted to Tian Qian, "I'm not going back to Youzhou, and I will never go back."

Tian Qian persuaded: "Brother Bogui, you have [-] soldiers under your command, so don't be arrogant. Where can we go if we don't go back to Youzhou?"

Gongsun Zan was full of murderous intent, "Kill Han Fu and take Jizhou."

===

At the beginning of June, Suigu came to the city with the Yellow Turban Army, and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army had already crossed the river. Some of them attacked Bohai County, and some of them attacked Wei County after occupying Ganling State, intending to join Suigu.At this moment of crisis, Gongsun Zan still had no intention of sending troops to attack.If you don't give me money, I won't send troops.

Just when Han Fu remembered that there was nothing to do, there was a news like a bolt from the blue that the Northern Xinjiang Army entered Jizhou and occupied the four counties of Changshan and Zhongshan.Qu Yi, the general of the town army, was even more arrogant and reckless. When he arrived in Handan, he beat and kicked Zhao Guoxiang back to Yecheng.This country minister was recently arranged by Han Fu. He planned to replace all the country ministers and prefects of the four counties step by step.

The northern army quietly rushed from Luoyang to Jizhou, occupying four counties, which shows that the eldest princess and the court are determined to remove themselves.After Han Fu was stunned for a moment, he suddenly punched the desk and shouted angrily, "People are good at being bullied. Am I still afraid?" The country was occupied by the Northern Frontier Army, Hejian and other three prefectures were controlled by Yuan Shao, and only one Wei prefecture was still controlled by himself.Han Fu thought about how pitiful he was, a majestic Jizhou shepherd was like a prefect of a small county.

There are more angry things to come.Yuan Shao's nephew Gao Gan, Yuan Shao's career in Guo Tu, Xin Ping, Xun Chen, and Gongsun Zan's long history Guan Jing came.Han Fu saw the gloating smiles on the faces of the four of them, and knew what they wanted to say.Han Fu pointed to Guo Tu, Xin Ping, and Xun Chen and said, "We are all from Yingchuan and have been friends for many years. Isn't it too much for you to help Yuan Shao win Jizhou like this? Be a man with a conscience and don't be too shameless." I know what Yuan Shao wants to do, and I also know what you want to say. I advise you not to say it, so as not to anger me. I will kill people in a fit of anger."

Five people stood there blushing and embarrassed.

Han Fu went on to say: "To tell you the truth, the Northern Xinjiang army has entered Jizhou. Even if Yuan Shao got Jizhou, he would not be able to be the shepherd of Jizhou unless he drove the Northern Xinjiang army out."

===

July of the second year of Chuping of the Han Dynasty (AD 191).

=

At the beginning of July, Dongjun, Puyang.

When the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in Montenegro heard that they were going back to Jizhou to fight, some of them couldn't figure it out.The situation in Jizhou is there, the Youzhou Army has already moved south, and the Northern Xinjiang Army can advance eastward to reinforce Jizhou at any time. At this time, turning back to fight Jizhou is not asking for a dead end.We fought the Yellow River with great difficulty, and the two Yellow Turban armies joined together. We should hold together and take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to develop in Qingzhou. How can we divide our troops into four battles and follow the old path of the Yellow Turban Army's failure?

Bai Rao and Yu Du explained everything, and the time was so delayed.When the various units of the Yellow Turban Army began to cross the Yellow River north, Yuan Shao had assembled a large army and fought all the way.Bai Rao let Yu Du go to the north bank of the Yellow River to command the army to go north, and he led [-] main forces to block Yuan Shao and cover the army to continue crossing the river.

The bloody battle started in Puyang City.Yuan Shao was eager to cross the north, and the warlord attacked fiercely, and even led his army to attack the city by personally taking arrows.After Bai Rao stood firm for three days, he had to withdraw from the city because of the fall of Nancheng.The two sides immediately fought fiercely again on the banks of the Yellow River.

Cao Cao led [-] elite soldiers and took the lead in defeating Bai Rao's left wing, causing the formation of the Yellow Turban Army to be in chaos.

Bai Rao beat the drum and shouted wildly: "The sky is dead, Huang Tian should stand..."

"Today's battle to the death, never ending..."

Inspired by the sound of war drums, the soldiers of the whole army marched forward bravely, fighting to the death, and no one turned back, "Fight, fight until you die..."

The sound of killing was like thunder, the arrows were like rain, and the blood flowed like rivers. The fearless Yellow Turban Army fought fiercely and bravely.

Yuan Shao's war horse was wounded and fell headfirst. Although the guards tried their best to save him, they were still stabbed three times in a row. The last knife split open his armor and pierced three parts of his flesh, causing blood to flow profusely.During the attack, Cao Cao was knocked off his horse by a Yellow Turban soldier. Then several Yellow Turban soldiers pierced through their bodies with their spears, rushed to Cao Cao, and gave him a heavy knife.Cao Cao dragged his bloody body, and under the cover of Cao Hong, Xu Chu and others, he escaped from the siege by rolling and crawling.

The fierce battle became more and more bloody, with heads flying and broken limbs and arms flying all over the sky along with the howling arrows.Bai Rao was severely injured and was protected by his personal guards, but all of them were killed in a blink of an eye. The red-eyed officers and soldiers rushed forward and inserted dozens of spears into Bai Rao's thin body. in the body.

The setting sun is like blood.

At dusk, the battle was over.The official army wiped out 400 Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army at the cost of more than [-] people killed, and killed Bai Rao, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army who had been in Yanzhao for eight years.

Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Han Qiong, Pan Feng and others stood in front of the wreckage of their former opponent, still feeling lingering fear.

"Bury him, bury him." Yuan Shao sighed, "This handsome Bai is a man."

On the other side, Yu Du and a group of leaders of the Yellow Turban Army knelt down and kowtowed, and left with tears.

===

In July, Jizhou.

After the Battle of Puyang, Yuan Shao took Cao Cao as the prefect of Dongjun and stayed on the south bank of the Yellow River to recruit troops while fighting against the Yellow Turban Army.He led the army across the Yellow River, followed Yudu's army, and went straight to Yecheng.

The Yellow Turban Army had just suffered a major defeat, and Bai Rao was killed again, which seriously affected the morale of the soldiers.Yu Du discussed with other leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, and then led the army to retreat to Heishan. At the same time, he sent people to report to Sui Gu, and withdrew the army back to Heishan to meet up.

When Yuan Shao led his army to Qinghe, he received an urgent letter from Guo Tu.Guo Tu didn't know that Yuan Shao had already gone north, so he urgently urged Yuan Shao to go to Yecheng immediately in his letter.

The situation in Jizhou changed again.In order to get out of the predicament, Han Fu discussed with his staff, and the judge immediately thought of a plan to kill two birds with one stone.He told Guan Jing that all the money and food for Gongsun Zan had been raised, but he could not give it now, because Qu Yi, the general of the northern border army, was ordered to transport the money and food to northern Xinjiang.If Gongsun Zan wants it, please bring the army to Yecheng to get it.Then he hurriedly wrote to Qu Yi that Gongsun Zan was arrogant and domineering, plundering and plundering, threatening to lead the army to loot Yecheng and Jizhou.Han Fu said, Gongsun Zan's coming to grab money is a fake, and it's true that he is trying to seize Jizhou. Please come to help quickly, my lord.

Gongsun Zan was worried that he had no excuse to go to Yecheng to kill Han Fu, and at this time, Han Fu sent his head to the door himself.Gongsun Zan asked Tian Mo to lead the army, and he himself took three thousand white horses to Yecheng day and night.

After Qu Yi received Han Fu's letter, his heart was full of joy.If he could use the opportunity of aiding Han Fu to capture Yecheng and occupy Wei County, he would have obtained half of Jizhou, but this would inevitably lead to conflict with Gongsun Zan.To be on the safe side, Qu Yi urgently wrote to Zhang Yan, asking him to lead his army south to respond, and at the same time, Yang Feng, who was stationed at Huguan, asked him to send troops to Handan for help.He thought for a while, and wrote another memorial to the eldest princess and the court, slandering Han Fu and Gongsun Zan, and finally said, since Gongsun Zan is fighting Han Fu, then I have to fight.Considering the relationship between Beijiang and Youzhou, please ask the eldest princess and the court to write to Liu Yu urgently to explain a little, so as not to fall out with Youzhou in the future.In addition, should the eldest princess and the imperial court send me an additional support soldier?Gongsun Zan has [-] iron cavalry, but I don’t have any. Can Du Liao General Zhao Yun or Xiangwu Zhonglang General Wei Jun lead the cavalry south to Jizhou?
Qu Yi asked Fan Li to lead 1000 men to guard Handan, and he rushed to Yecheng with four generals, Wen Chou, He Feng, Xu Huang, and Lei Chong, and [-] troops.

Handan is only 150 miles away from Yecheng, and they arrived in two days, but when they walked away from Wucheng, they met Gongsun Zan.Qu Yi immediately became alert, what a coincidence?I'm here, and Gongsun Zan is here too?Qu Yi's vanguard battalion was He Feng. After he met Gongsun Zan immediately, he asked him, didn't your lord fight fiercely with the Yellow Turban Army in the Bohai Sea and Ganling area?Why did you come to Yecheng when you have time?

Gongsun Zan snorted coldly and was speechless.He Feng was very arrogant just now, although he got off his horse and saluted, but that expression, that straight waist, that barely raised hand, that tone of voice, how could he look like a subordinate official?He didn't even look at Gongsun Zan.Gongsun Zan saw that he was the highest-ranking lieutenant of the Northern Xinjiang Army and Li Hong's subordinate, so he suppressed his words.Seeing him ignoring him, He Feng put his face down immediately, got on his horse, and said domineeringly, "Does your lord want to enter the city to rob?"

Gongsun Zan's eyes widened in anger.How dare you talk to me like that onion.He waved his hand, "Get it for me."

He Feng had been prepared for a long time, and he swung the whip in the air. With a sound of "crack...", dozens of guards behind him raised their crossbows together, and followed the beat of the war drums. The two thousand troops a hundred steps away made a loud noise. Roar, "Kill..."

"Gongsun Zan, if you dare to go any further, I will shoot an arrow..." He Feng shouted arrogantly, "Don't think that I dare not fight you because you are the brother of the great general. I will fight anyway..."

Gongsun Zan yelled, "Boy, you're tired of working... beat the drum... beat the drum for me..."

The two sides were at each other's throats, and they were on the verge of breaking out.

Gongsun Fan hastily grabbed Gongsun Zan, and whispered, "Brother, don't be fooled, we seem to have been tricked. How did the Northern Frontier Army know we were coming? This is too much of a coincidence."

Gongsun Zan sneered, his handsome face twitching violently, "Did you see that? Han Fu, that bastard, dared to lie to me. Quickly, take my warrant and transfer another five thousand cavalry. This time I will skin him. "

Gongsun Fan looked at him worriedly, "Brother, then don't fight with the general. We can't be fooled by others."

"This kid is too arrogant, I want to teach him a lesson for the general." Gongsun Zan said through gritted teeth, "A school lieutenant in Northern Xinjiang is so arrogant, that general will be fine."

The general was indeed even more arrogant, extremely arrogant.

Qu Yi scolded Gongsun Zan so badly that his saliva splashed on Gongsun Zan's face, but Gongsun Zan didn't dare to wipe it off. Qu Yi's general rank was three levels higher than him, and he was still holding a festival axe, so he could definitely be caught. When he got up, he had to bear it if he couldn't bear it.Qu Yi was tired of cursing, and then he whipped him severely, "Get lost."

Gongsun Zan was about to burst into tears, bowed and retreated, and left with Bai Ma Yi.

Looking at Gongsun Zan's back, Wen Chou said in a low voice, "This feud is settled."

"It's easy to ask God to send God away, Jizhou is busy." Qu Yi said angrily, "Go, enter the city, tell Han Fu to get out of here immediately."

===

Of course Han Fu would not leave, he asked Qu Yi to leave.

There are ten thousand troops in Yecheng, what is Han Fu afraid of?He thought that as long as the conflict between the Northern Border Army and the Youzhou Army was provoked, the rest of the matter would be easy to handle, but things suddenly changed.

The scouts urgently reported that Yuan Shao had returned.

Han Fu suddenly realized that he had been tricked.He hurriedly sent someone to arrest the judge, and he asked the judge, why did you betray me, what can I do to you, and you have come up with such a trick to frame me.The judge was calm and composed, and said frankly, you are Jizhou Mu, and I am Fa Caozhu from Jizhou Prefecture, why do you say betrayal?I am only loyal to the big man, and to the ancestors of the judges.As for framing, let alone framing, I can only say that adults are ignorant of current affairs and dull and ignorant.The knife is already on your neck, and you don't know it yet.I'm here to save you, you know?If you don't give up Jizhou again, you will die.Han Fu sighed sadly, asked the judge to leave the mansion.

After Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan met, they discussed for a long time.Because Jizhou suddenly had more Northern Xinjiang troops, the situation immediately became confusing and complicated.

Of course Gongsun Zan has no chance to win Jizhou now, he can only keep this thought in his heart and take it step by step.With the strength of his purpose, it is not enough to compete with Beijiang.But he can't let Beijiang take advantage of it, so he has only one choice, which is to help Yuan Shao capture Jizhou.

Yuan Shao was in a good mood, talking and laughing.He came back just in time, and while his back was still hurting, it was totally worth it.The situation has developed to the present, and Jizhou has become his own pocket, which makes him very excited, and secretly rejoices for his luck.Sometimes no matter how good the strategy is, it is useless without luck.

Yuan Shao said, at present, the northern border army has robbed four counties, I don't have the ability to take them back, and neither do you, so we have to make concessions each.You take it from Bohai County first. Who will be the prefect is up to you.How could Gongsun Zan see a Bohai County? He squinted his eyes and asked, "Brother Benchu, do you plan to take those four counties back?"

Yuan Shao was overjoyed.Gongsun Zan has ideas about Jizhou so soon?It seems that no one in this world can refuse the temptation of power and wealth.

Yuan Shao smiled slightly: "As long as Brother Bogui is willing to help me, so what if I hand over this Jizhou to you?"

Gongsun Zan was secretly surprised, and fell silent.Yuan Shaozhi is not in Jizhou, so could it be that his ambition is in the world?Thinking of Yuan Shao's actions over the past year, Gongsun Zan seemed to realize something.

===

When Gongsun Zan's [-] cavalry arrived, the two armies joined together and headed straight for Yecheng in a menacing manner.

Han Fu is no longer the third prince of the imperial court, but Yuan Shao is still. Yuan Shao is the supervisor of the censor and the prefect of Bohai Sea. His official position is higher than that of Qu Yi.Seeing Yuan Shao's sudden return and the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army retreating, Qu Yi knew that this trip was a waste of time, but he didn't want to return to Handan empty-handed.

Chen Lin came to see Qu Yi, and said a lot about Han Fu, and finally said, "What is especially intolerable is that he disregarded the survival of the whole world and the lives of the people, and deliberately provoked the northern army and Youzhou The relationship between the military and the intention to provoke a war and harm the country. If this kind of person is not killed, when will the country be safe?"

Qu Yi said impatiently: "Isn't Yuan Shao just going to be the shepherd of Jizhou? Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

Chen Lin looked embarrassed, she opened her mouth to say no, and she didn't say no.

"Whether he is a Jizhou shepherd or how he does it has nothing to do with me. I just want money and food." Qu Yi waved his hand and said, "Also, you tell Yuan Shao to say hello to the people in Luoyang, and don't look for trouble. How can there be a lot of nonsense when the imperial court arrives in Luoyang? If this goes on, it will snow and the country will collapse."

Chen Lin glanced at him contemptuously, and said unhurriedly: "My lord, you are also from a famous family, so why are you so rude. Master Yuan is your superior, you should respect him as Master Yuan, how can you call him by his first name?" ? If I take Li Hong one at a time and don’t call him General, how would you feel after hearing that?”

Qu Yi raised his eyebrows, pointed to his nose and asked, "Are you talking to me?"

Chen Lin looked around, "Is there anyone else here? If there is someone, it is to talk to you."

"You're looking for death..." Qu Yi slapped the table suddenly, and said in a cold voice, "Come on, drag it down, and give me fifty lashes."

===

There are tens of thousands of troops outside the city staring at Yecheng, and there are more than a dozen mouths surrounding Han Fu in the city, forcing Han Fu to voluntarily give up the seat of Jizhou Mu.

Han Fu refused to obey until his death, "The head can be broken, but the holy will cannot be violated. Yuan Shao is arrogant and lawless, and he will be punished by heaven."

The capital officer, Zhu Han, had a grudge against Han Fu. He took this opportunity to surround Han Fu's mansion, arrested Han Fu's son, and broke his son's legs in front of Han Fu.Han Fu was extremely sad and indignant, picked up the official seal and slammed it on the ground, "Take it, I want to see how long wicked people like you can run rampant."

That afternoon, Han Fu left Yecheng with his family and returned to his hometown, Yingchuan County, Yuzhou.More than a dozen of Jizhou Prefecture were engaged in rebellion, and dozens of guards went with them.

As soon as Han Fu left Yecheng, Yuan Shao entered the city.Chief Shi Gengwu and Biejia Min Chun retaliated in anger, and stabbed each other among the officials who welcomed Yuan Shao into the city.Yuan Shao wanted to spare their lives, but Guo Tu said that if they tolerate and support the traitors, they will be killed by traitors in the future, so it is better to kill them.Yuan Shao killed them and Zhu Han at the same time.Zhu Han's evil deeds angered the elites of Yecheng, and not killing them would not be enough to appease their anger.

Yuan Shao urgently wrote to the princess and the imperial court, enumerating Han Fu's misfortune to the country, "Han Fu felt that he had sinned deeply, and he had no face to lead the affairs of Jizhou, so he left with his seal. Now Jizhou is in danger, and the officials of Jizhou are begging in every possible way, so the minister resigned." However, I am temporarily in charge of Jizhou pastoral affairs. Although my talents are shallow, I will be loyal to the country, and I will die without regret."

At the end of July, Qu Yi led his army back to Handan, and reported to the eldest princess and the court in detail what happened in Jizhou, and at the same time copied a report to Li Hong, the general of hussars.Qu Yi said in the memorial that we will not have a direct confrontation with Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan for the time being, but considering the serious shortage of troops in Jizhou by the Northern Frontier Army, we still ask the cavalry outside the Great Wall to go south to Jizhou to help.

In August of the second year of Chuping of the Han Dynasty (AD 191).

In August, Luoyang.

The debates among the ministers on various matters have not come to fruition. When the eldest princess and the court will return to the capital has gradually become an even more difficult matter.

Due to Zhu Jun's prestige and his special relationship with Beijiang, Zhu Jun's opinion is very important.In July, he told the ministers that it was pointless to fight so much, and that the eldest princess and the court should be brought back first.However, the relocation of the eldest princess and the imperial court involves the repair and arrangement of the imperial palace and many government offices, all of which require money.Therefore, Zhu Jun said, since everyone is not willing to pay taxes to the imperial court for the time being, let's first lend some money to the imperial court for emergencies.

No one answered.

Zhang Wen was so angry that he walked away on the spot.Is this also a courtier of the big man?This is also called saving the country?
Zhu Jun tried his best to persuade Zhang Qi, the Prime Minister of Anping Kingdom, to be dissatisfied, "Master Zhu, you are no longer a court official. If we didn't respect you, we would have driven you away."

Zhang Qi's words almost made Zhu Jun faint.

More than a dozen officials, including Hongnong Taishou Yang Yi, Chenliu Taishou Zhang Miao, Xuzhou Governor's Mansion Wang Lang, and Yanzhou Mufu's Liu Yi, accused Zhang Qi.That night, [-] state and county officials, on behalf of the [-] state and county governments, jointly recommended Zhu Jun as "General of Chariots and Cavalry, General of Chariots and Cavalry, in charge of all affairs in Luoyang."

When this petition was sent to Jinyang, the eldest princess would naturally approve it, so Zhu Jun's identity was immediately confirmed and he became the minister with the highest official position in Luoyang City. Delayed.

At this time, news came from Jizhou that Han Fu gave way to Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao took over Jizhou Mu.

Then came the news from Yuzhou that the Yellow Turban Army attacked Chen Guo and Runan, and the armies of various prefectures and counties did not fight the Yellow Turban Army but the Northern Xinjiang Army.

Then news came from Nanyang that Liu Biao was attacking Yuan Shu.

The ministers in Luoyang City looked at each other in blank dismay, no longer interested in discussing matters.

Zhang Miao stood up and sighed, "Let's go. Even if the emperor is in Luoyang now, so what? Let's go..."
