Reborn Wei Yan

When Wang Yun, Lu Bu and others were secretly planning to assassinate Dong Zhuo, in April of the third year of Chuping (192), more than a million people from the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army attacked Yanzhou, and then captured Rencheng (now Jining, Shandong), and Kill Zheng Sui, the chancellor of the city.Immediately afterwards, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army defeated the official army who came to suppress it near Dongping (now Dongping, Shandong). Afterwards, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army moved to Shouzhang (now southwest of Dongping, Shandong).

The smooth development of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in Yanzhou made the officials and scholars in Yanzhou extremely panic.The Yellow Turban Army of Qingzhou was attacking Yanzhou, and Liu Dai, governor of Yanzhou, wanted to lead the army to fight. However, at this time, Bao Xin, Minister of Jibei, said to Liu Dai: "Now there are millions of remnants of the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, and the people of Yanzhou They are all panicking. Now that the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army have won successive victories, the officers and soldiers in Yanzhou have no morale at all. Now I am afraid that they will not be the opponents of these remnants of the Yellow Turban Army! However, although the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army have many people, they do not have much food and grass. , Most of them were plundered after the victory in the battle! Now it is time to gather the soldiers and the people to enter the battled city, then fortify the walls and clear the fields, and hold on to the big city! After a few days, when the remaining food and grass of the Yellow Turban Army are almost consumed, these The remnants of the Yellow Turban Army must be in a dilemma, unable to fight, but unable to attack, and must retreat in the end! Then, except for some soldiers defending the city, the rest of the army will attack these remnants of the Yellow Turban Army, and the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army will definitely be defeated in one fell swoop!"

Although Bao Xin's strategy was good, Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, did not adopt it. Instead, he insisted on leading the army to a decisive battle with the Yellow Turban Army. As expected by Bao Xin, he was finally defeated by the Yellow Turban Army. Jun killed!

In Qingzhou, the Yellow Turban Army invaded Yanzhou, beheaded Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, and shook Yanzhou.At this time, Chen Gong, a subordinate of Cao Cao, the prefect of Dongjun, who got the news, persuaded Yanzhou Zhizhong and Biejia to welcome Cao Cao into Yanzhou. To become the land of the lord, and now His Majesty is far away in Chang'an, under the control of Dong Zhuo's old thief, this can be said to be the severance of the king's life! Now the palace is going to lobby Gang Ji and others in Yanzhou to invite the lord to take over Yanzhou! Then the lord can use Based on Yanzhou, fight for world hegemony!"

Soon after, Chen Gong went to Yanzhou to say goodbye to Yanzhou and Zhizhong: "Now the world is in turmoil, and now Yanzhou has become the land of the lord! My lord Cao Dongjun is a man of destiny. If you welcome my lord to Yanzhou now , will surely defeat the Yellow Turban Army, and then develop the people's livelihood!"

Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jinbei who was friendly with Cao Cao, also tried his best to support Cao Cao.So Wanqian in Yanzhi and Bao Xin went to Dongjun to welcome Cao Cao as Yanzhou pastor.After Cao Cao entered Yanzhou, he immediately joined forces with Bao Xin to block the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in the eastern suburb of Shouzhang (now southwest of Dongping, Shandong Province). The two armies fought fiercely. The pioneers took the lead and encouraged the soldiers. After fierce fighting day and night, they finally drove Qingzhou Huangjin out of Fengzhang.In September of that year, Cao Cao led his army in pursuit and defeated all the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou in the Jibei area.

The Yellow Turbans surrendered, and Cao Cao captured more than [-] surrendered soldiers, with a population of more than one million men and women. He then selected the elite of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou to form an army called "Qingzhou Soldiers". Since then, Cao Cao's strength has been greatly enhanced.At the same time, the imperial court heard that Liu Dai had died in battle, so they changed their attack and made Jingzhao Yin Jinshang the governor of Yanzhou.Cao Cao met Jin Shang on the way, and Jin Shang fled to Shu.So Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou.

However, in this battle, when Bao Xin, Prime Minister of Jinbei, was fighting the Yellow Turban Army, Cao Cao was slow to help Bao Xin who was in danger, and finally Bao Xin was killed by the Yellow Turban Army!And this scene was being seen by Chen Gong and the gentry of Yanzhou. Soon after, Chen Gong left Cao Cao, and the gentry of Yanzhou also separated from Cao Cao!

After Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou, he enlisted Chenliu Maojie as the government.Mao Jie said to Cao Cao: "Nowadays, the country is divided, the monarch is separated, the people are unemployed, starving and exiled, the government has no reserves to last a year, and the people have no peace of mind. This situation is difficult to last. Although Yuan Shao and Liu Biao have many soldiers and people , powerful, but they have no long-term considerations, no people who have established the foundation and built the foundation. In the matter of using troops, only those who are in line with justice can win, and maintaining power requires financial resources. Therefore, you should support the emperor and order those who refuse to submit, Commit to farming and stockpiling military supplies, so that the great cause of domination and kingship can be successful. Cao Cao solemnly adopted his opinion and transferred him to be the shogunate.[

Mao Jie, styled Xiaoxian, was born in Chenliu Pingqiu (now Fengqiu, Henan). He was a county official when he was young, and he was known for his integrity and justice.Due to the war, he planned to go to Jingzhou to avoid the chaos, but on the way, he learned that Liu Biao's government was not strict and Jingzhou was in constant war, so he changed to Luyang.Later, he took refuge in Cao Cao and put forward the strategic plan of "following the emperor's orders without ministers, cultivating farming and planting, and raising military funds", which was appreciated by Cao Cao.Later, Mao Jie and Cui Yan presided over the election, and they all elected honest and upright people.And Mao Jie is also very clean, which arouses the trend of cleanliness in the world. Even the honorable and favored ministers dare not be too luxurious in clothing and vehicles.Mao Jie and Cui Yan changed the atmosphere of the court, which greatly appreciated Cao Cao, and Cao Pi also visited him in person, which is a later story.

After Cao Cao heard Mao Jie's words, he sent an envoy to Zhang Yang, the prefect of Hanoi, and wanted to take the road west to Chang'an, but Zhang Yang refused.Later, Tao Dongzhao lobbied Zhang Yang who said: "Although Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are a family, they are not of the same mind. Although Cao Cao is weak, Cao Cao is a rare hero in the world. We should make friends with sincerity. Now that If you are destined, you should allow his envoy to borrow the way and show off Cao Cao's achievements! After this is done, it will definitely be beneficial to you."

Dong Zhao, courtesy name Gongren, was born in Dingtao, Jiyin (now Dingtao, Shandong).A counselor and minister in the early years of Cao Wei.Yuan Shao, a former official, made many contributions. He left because of slander and became Zhang Yang's counselor. Later, he followed Zhang Yang to meet Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and was worshiped as Yilang.Dong Zhao suggested to Cao Cao that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty be moved to Xuchang. Since then, he became Cao Cao's counselor and was deeply trusted by Cao Cao.Later, under Dong Zhao's suggestion, Cao Cao joined Jiuxi and became the Duke and King of Wei.During the period when Cao Pi and Cao Rui were in power, Dong Zhao also had a lot of plans, and his official rank was Situ, and he was named Lepinghou.

Then Zhang Yang agreed to Dong Zhao's suggestion.And Dong Zhao also personally wrote letters to Li Jue, Guo Si and others for Cao Cao, and then bribed Li Jue, Guo Si and others' cronies with a lot of money!Guandong wants to establish himself as the emperor, although Cao Cao sent an envoy, it is not out of his true intention.So they discussed to detain Cao Cao's envoy, but refused to accept his sincerity.

Zhong Yao, the servant of the Huangmen, said to Li Jue, Guo Si and others: "Nowadays, heroes are rising together, and all places are trying to be autocratic. Now only Yanzhou, which is occupied by Cao Cao, is still obedient to the court. Although it is a bit insincere, it is not your fault Hope?!" Afterwards, Li Jue, Guo Si and others agreed with Zhong Yao's opinion, but still ruled out Jin Shang as Yanzhou Governor, and then sent Zhong Yao to Yanzhou as the court's envoy!

Zhong Yao, whose character is Chang, is from Yingchuan Changshe.When he was young, he was very handsome and intelligent. He once went to Luoyang with his uncle Zhong Yu. On the way, he met a face-to-face. Flooded doom, walk carefully."

As a result, after walking less than ten miles, Zhong Yao's horse suddenly panicked when he was crossing the bridge. Zhong Yao was overturned into the water and almost drowned.Seeing that the fortune teller's words came true, Zhong Yu admired Zhong Yao more and more, and provided him with money so that he could concentrate on his studies.

Zhong Yao had an extraordinary appearance and intelligence in his early years.He served successively as Shangshulang, Huangmen Shilang, etc. He made great contributions to helping Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty return to the east, and was granted the title of Marquis of Dongwuting.Later, he was entrusted with an important task by Cao Cao, serving as the captain of Sili, guarding Guanzhong, and made outstanding contributions.Moved to the former military division with merit.Wei Guo was established, served as Dali, and was promoted to Xiangguo.Cao Pi was proclaimed emperor, made Tingwei, and was granted the title of Marquis of Chonggao Township.Later, he moved to Taiwei and was transferred to Pingyang Township Marquis.Together with Hua Xin and Wang Lang, they are the three princes.Emperor Ming succeeded to the throne, moved to Taifu, and became the Marquis of Dingling.

After learning that Cao Cao occupied the entire Yanzhou, in order to eliminate Cao Cao, Yuan Shao's ally, Yuan Shu and Jin Shang, the governor of Yanzhou appointed by the imperial court, sent troops to attack Yanzhou.

Yuan Shu stationed his army in Fengqiu, and then he was supported by the rest of the Black Mountain bandits and the Xiongnu in Fuluo. He fought against Cao Cao in Kuangting, but was defeated.Yuan Shu withdrew to protect Yongqiu and returned to Shouchun in the south. The guard Chen Yu refused to let him enter the city. Yuan Shu retreated to Yinling and gathered troops to attack Chen Yu. Chen Yu fled back to Xiapi.

Soon after, Chen Wen, the governor of Yangzhou, Runan, died of illness. Yuan Shao appointed Yuan Yi to lead Yangzhou in the name of the chief ally of the Kwantung Allied Army and General Cheqi;When Yuan Yi fled to Xiapei, he was killed by Yuan Shu's soldiers.Afterwards, Yuan Shu Xiapi and Chen Yu became the governor of Yangzhou.However, this Chen Yu is just a puppet in Yuan Shu's hands!

Yuan's posthumous title is Boye, Yuan Shaocong's elder brother, at the beginning he was the order of Chang'an, and later he served as the prefect of Shanyang. It is bright and straight, and it is dominated by the sky; if it contains a collection of books, a comprehensive collection of hundreds of names, ascending to the top and being able to write, and famous things, if you look for it today, it will be unremarkable." Cao Cao commented: "When you grow up, you can be a diligent scholar. I and Yuan Boyeer." In the first year of Chuping (AD 190), he participated in the crusade against Dong Zhuo as a prince along the way and stationed troops in Suanzao.Although Yuan Yi was a member of the Yuan family, he had a good relationship with Yuan Shao and a poor relationship with Yuan Shu, so in the end Yuan Shu didn't show mercy and killed him directly!

Not long after, Yuan Shu led the rest of his troops to Jiujiang County, led Yangzhou Mu, also known as Xuzhou Bo, and appointed his generals Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui as generals.However, after Li Jue and others invaded Chang'an, they wanted to make friends with Yuan Shu, so they conferred the title of Hushi General, false festivals, and entered the title of Marquis of Yangdi. He snatched the military talisman that Ma Rizun was carrying, and then locked him up and never let him go back.
