Why did Koji have such an idea?

The reason is very simple, because since he broke Gongsun Zan with Yuan Shao, he was seized by Yuan Shao, and he has not been idle until now.

At this time, the imperial court fell apart, and the de facto imperial army had disappeared. In order to protect their families and industries in this troubled era, they built dock forts, recruited private soldiers, and even participated in the competition for the world. This kind of private arming is not uncommon, and it is recognized by princes everywhere.

Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other major princes, the soldiers in their hands were either private soldiers as the backbone, or they turned the imperial army's army into their own private soldiers. Therefore, the generals under their command are also all private army leaders. For example, Yu Ban in Cao Cao's army is the leader of the Taishan soldiers, and Li Dian is also a representative of a large private general. Like the generals of the White Polish Army, the Black Mountain Army, and the Liangzhou Army, their troops only obey the orders of their own generals. The Son of Heaven and the imperial court had long since lost their command over them. And the Jiangdong Sun clan, in history, has greatly encouraged the ministry to recruit troops and horses to expand their strength to fight against the Jiangdong clan forces.

Having said that, Koji Yi is in Jizhou, and he is actually a private soldier leader. He has a private army with generals and servants as the backbone. Over the years, he has assisted Han Fu in the front and Yuan Shao in the back, and the battles have become more and more, and the troops have become stronger and stronger. Lu Yi is not Yuan Shao's confidant, so it will naturally arouse Yuan Shao's vigilance. In history, Sun Ce, who regarded Zhou Yu as a brother of flesh and blood, when Zhou Yu abandoned Yuan Shu to defect, Sun Ce, who had tens of thousands of soldiers, was only willing to give 2,000 soldiers and 50 horses. Not to mention Koji. Weakening Koji Yi has become Yuan Shao's only choice. So after the defeat of Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao let Koyi recuperate from his injuries with peace of mind, and then easily took away Koyi's military power under the pretext that Koji was unable to lead the troops after recuperating from his injuries. In Yuan Shao's view, this is for the overall situation of Jizhou. In Liyi's opinion, this is because Yuan Shao is narrow-minded, and he is afraid that he will be high-powered, so he is wary of him.

Now under Kojiyi's command, only his headquarters composed of generals and servants are still following him. Although when Yuan Shao went north, he entrusted him with military and political affairs. Let him have the right to command and mobilize the remaining troops in Wei County and even in Jizhou. But Koji still didn't want to attack.

At this time, when Yuan Shao had already brought all the elites to the north, he brought his men and horses to fight Zhang Fei, and all he could rely on was his own headquarters. Whether you win or lose, what you lose is your own strength. Koji Yoshicai would not do such a thankless task. If he won the battle by luck, Yuan Shao would only verbally comfort him and give him something impractical as a reward; If he loses the battle and is weakened again, Yuan Shao will clean himself up, but he will really not be soft. This is indeed the case in history, Yuan Shao killed Lu Yi and then annexed his people.

At the insistence of Lu Yi, Yuan Tan listened to Lu Yi's advice, but sat in the city and turned a blind eye to the Qingzhou army crossing the border. Yuan Tan was young, and he didn't have the audacity of Koji Yi, so he struggled for a long time, and asked: "General, if my father returns to the state and asks about this matter, how should he respond?" ”

Lu Yi said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, I sent my army far behind Zhang Fei, and if the lord returns, he will attack Wei County with the Qingzhou army, and we can drive them out." ”

Koji Yi is not afraid of his lies being exposed at all, with Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan Shao, in front, what is he afraid of. It's really not good, so I'll have a fake fight with Zhang Fei then. As long as Wei Jun has nothing to lose, Yuan Shao has no reason to punish him.

Zhang Feiliang marched all the way to guard against the Jizhou soldiers, but he didn't see the enemy when he left Ye County, only the scouts came to report that there was a small army far behind the army.

Zhang Feizhang and Er King Kong were confused, and said in their hearts, who is this Wei County left-behind, so daring?

Here Zhang embroidered to Huize County, and then went further into the territory of Bingzhou. So he stationed down and asked Jia Xu: "Jia Gong, the front is Bingzhou, I don't know where Lu Bu is?" ”

Jia Xu was about to send an envoy to ask, but suddenly at the crossing ahead, the sound of hooves was heard, and an army suddenly appeared. Looking at its banner, it is Lu Bu. Zhang Xiu looked at it intently, and saw that Lu Bu was riding first, and the generals behind him followed, shaking his spirits, and leaping on his horse. couldn't help but sigh: "Lu Bu is really a martial artist." ”

Of course Lu Bu is powerful. At this time, people are generally filial piety, and then the state and county and even the imperial court are refuted, only Lu Bu, it is estimated that his background is not very good, and he is not a scholar, so there is only one sentence in the history books, and he will merge the state with martial arts. Can a person who stands out with personal bravery not be powerful?

Lu Bu arrived in front of Zhang Xiu's array, waved his hand to stop, and then went out of the column, Zhang Xiu saw it, and also went out of the formation with Jia Xu, and when he reached the circle of the array, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu gave a salute on the horse, and said: "Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu have seen General Lu." ”

Lu Bu still has a fake festival and three divisions on his head, and his nominal position is higher than that of Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, so he received this gift, so he returned the salute, and then said: "General Zhang, Doctor Jia, where is the Son of Heaven?" ”

So Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu led Lu Bu and others into the Chinese army to meet the Son of Heaven. When he arrived in the Chinese army, Lu Bu led Xun You into the house to meet the Son of Heaven.

"Marquis Wen, General Lu Bu; Minister Huangmen Shilang Xun You, meet His Majesty the Emperor! ”

Since Chang'an said goodbye, the Son of Heaven has not seen Lu Bu for a long time, and after giving the seat, he talked to him. After talking for a while, the Son of Heaven said that the years were ruthless, and he was the unparalleled Wen Hou of the year, and now he is also full of wind and frost. He turned his head again and asked Xun You: "How is Qing in General Lu's camp?" ”

Xun You is a famous man in Yingchuan, and the Son of Heaven can't understand how Xun You got involved with a martial artist like Lu Bu. Xun You then told him in detail about everything after he left Luoyang, and the Son of Heaven and the ministers couldn't help but be surprised when they heard it. I didn't expect Xun You to have such a tortuous and bizarre experience. However, seeing Xun You, the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials were also very happy in their hearts. Xun Yu's own uncle, Xun Yu, is working for Liu Bei in Qingzhou. Xun You is by his side, and the strangeness with Qingzhou will inevitably be a little less.

The two armies met, and the Son of Heaven rejoiced, so he ordered a feast and a banquet for the ministers.

On the second day, Jia Xu came to look for Lu Bu and asked, "General Lu, is there any obstacle to Zhangshui from now on?" ”

Lu Bu said with a smile: "Don't worry, Wenhe, with me, I will ensure that the future is fine." "Lu Bu is not bragging, although he can't attack the county seat of his eldest son, but the scouts sent by him were wiped out by the iron cavalry under his command. Now on the road that the party is going to pass, there are ears and eyes that he laid everywhere. If you don't know each other, just provoke him, otherwise you have to let him know that he Lu Bu is not easy to provoke.

Fortunately, the trick was very sensible, and after countless scouts never returned, he decisively stopped this behavior of giving people heads. As long as you stick to the county seat and resist Lu Bu. Leave the rest alone.

So Lu Bu opened the road in front, and Zhang Xiu led the army to follow, and the road was smooth and smooth, and he arrived in Zhangshui in a few days. The generals set up camp in Zhangshui and began to collect boats everywhere to prepare to cross the river.
