Chapter 39 Sending troops and annexing states

After a few years, Yanbei was about to face the prohibitive word of dominating the world and arousing the infinite ambition of men, which caught him off guard.

When he discussed the situation with his subordinates and even the top strategists in the world, when he heard the words around the word "hegemony in the world", he could not help but think of not so long ago and a few years ago. At that time, he was unkempt and rolled down the mountain in embarrassment from Taihang Bacheng, hiding his head and tail among the fluffy grass, looking at Gongsun Zhan, who was known as the white horse general at that time, with longing and expectant eyes, and the commander of the soldiers and horses walked in front of him proudly.

At that time, he thought that what he saw was the world, and he didn't even know if he could become a general in ten or eight years.

A few years later, he will plan to lead his fierce soldiers and horses across the widest river in the world to dominate the world!

Chang'an is going to be chaotic again, which is very bad for the imperial court; But for him, it couldn't be better news. Not only Chang'an, what Yanbei wants is chaos everywhere except Hebei! Yanzhou is going to be chaotic, and the state is also going to be chaotic, and everywhere is going to be chaotic. Only when they are messed up can the Yan clan control the situation more easily.

The first batch of military rations sent to Lü Bu, a mere 5,000 stones, arrived on the south bank of the Yellow River.

Wenhou Lu Fengxian, although Yanbei did not like his character, he was extremely recognized by his tactics and fierce fighting style, otherwise he would not have specially asked his subordinates to imitate his tactics by Zhao Yun, who was brave and strong but kind-hearted.

Lü Bu went south to Yanzhou with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, taking advantage of Cao Cao's unpreparedness to conspire with Chen Gong and others to seize the land of several counties in Yanzhou, and relied on Cao Cao's loss of the hearts of Yanzhou scholars to recruit a lot of people on the territory of Yanzhou. Then he fought three decisive battles with Cao Cao, among which although he lost many defeats and won few battles, he still held on to the two counties of Dongjun and Jiyin. Others such as Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao and his brother Zhang Chao also joined the massive rebellion within Yanzhou.

For a while, the war in northern Yanzhou could not be stopped.

What's more, Cao Cao's enemy is not only Lu Bu. This time, in order to avenge his father's revenge, he raised troops in Xuzhou, if it were not for the Yanzhou chaos, Cao Cao would be like a bamboo all the way, and no one could stop him. Even if the offensive returned to Yanzhou before halfway, Xuzhou was still greatly damaged in the short battle. First, he was attacked by Cao Cao to Langxie and the East China Sea generation, and he pulled out several cities in a row. Later, he fought with Liu Bei and Cao Bao's combined forces, and then took Xiangben after breaking through.

Although the offensive was halted by civil strife in Yanzhou, Tao Qian, a Xinjiang minister who was known for his Maocai Yunwen and Yunwu in the early years, also became ill in his grief and died on his couch shortly after Cao Cao retreated. After Tao Qian's death, Don't drive Mi Zhu and the officials and people of the state and county to promote Liu Bei as the lord of Xuzhou, and the first thing to lead Xuzhou is to raise troops to Cao Cao!

Cao Cao has to face a lot more trouble than Lu Bu!

The war in Yanzhou will inevitably not be able to distinguish the winner before the arrival of next year, and with Lu Bu to contain Cao Cao, Yanbei is very relieved about Yanzhou.

What really made him feel uneasy was the merger.

In the past few years of chaos in the world, the four states close to the border have long been chaotic, but if you want to say that the most chaotic, or the Han people cannot occupy the advantage, there is only the annexation of the state. This is not that the Hu people in Bingzhou are strong, if the Hu people are powerful, Liangzhou Qiangdi, Youzhou Wuhuan, that are hundreds of thousands of huge ethnic groups, although there are naturalized Southern Xiongnu in Bingzhou, but it is only between Bozhong. The Southern Xiongnu can only be counted as one of the ones who really let the state go into chaos.

The people who really made the state chaotic and played a fundamental role were Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan, Yuan Shao and He Jin.

What does the Border Army do? They were not ordered to enter Beijing to pacify the world, their primary function was to guard and merge the state and bully the Southern Xiongnu! But He Jin followed Yuan Shao's suggestion to recruit the Bingzhou army to Luoyang, and the Southern Xiongnu in Bingzhou were left alone.

How many heroes and fierce generals have grown up in the land of Bingzhou? Lu Fengxian bore the brunt of the attack, and in terms of bravery, even the fierce man Guo Yan in Liangzhou could only avoid the edge for the time being. How many years of communication between Hu and Han, so that the state has raised countless Sinicized Hu people and Han people who have been contaminated with the atmosphere of the Hu people, here there is no need to divide the ethnic groups so clearly, and even want to divide it can't be distinguished, such as what Southern Xiongnu, Tu Gehu, this can still be named, and there are more Hu people who can't be named.

Most of the White Polish Army and the Montenegrin Army absorbed a large number of people from the prefecture, and formed a tactic with local characteristics -- coming and going like the wind, being fierce, having sloppy military discipline, and having poor frontal combat capability.

In this situation where powerful warlords have been formed in each state and gradually unified the states and counties, Dong Zhuo is dead, who can condense these Bingzhou people who dare to claim the king and hegemony with dozens of fast horses and a hundred broken knives and spears into a force?

The Southern Xiongnu Xiaoshan Yu Fuluo can't do it, the warlord Zhang Yang who is entrenched in the Shangdang area can't do it, and Lu Bu, who retreated from Chang'an, didn't even think about returning to his hometown, who else can?

No one can't, and Yanbei doesn't think he can. Even if it weren't for the suggestion that he immediately start to acquire the annexation of Qingzhou after settling Qingzhou, Yanbei would not have planned to set foot in that barbaric land separated from him by the majestic Taihang!

This is not a place that can be taken with strong soldiers and horses, and the Qingzhou occupied by Yuan Shao is not a little easier than that of the state. Sending a large army from Jizhou to cross the Taihang Mountain, even if the road is like a bamboo in Bingzhou, once the battle line exceeds 100 miles, the grain route will definitely not be able to be protected - especially when the rear soldiers and horses are not capable of reinforcements.

But fortunately, under the command of Yanbei, there are all kinds of talented people. Horse bandits, there is a use for horse bandits; Bandits, have the ability to be bandits!

Outside Yecheng, a fierce army gathered in one place, the tall point will be the handsome flag on the stage to wave in the wind, Yanbei stands on it, in front of him is the captain Jiang Jin of the flooded 30,000 army, the captain Pan Ling who circulated between the mountains and fields of Goguryeo to cut off grain and burn the village, Li Damu, the captain who was born in the Yellow Turban Yu Party to kill people for money, and the captain Wang Dang, who was the head of the four generals of Montenegro in the early years and guarded Liaodong for several years.

"Wang Dang, who has meritorious service in guarding Liaodong, has been promoted to general, transferred 2,000 soldiers and horses, and recruited posts under his command for self-sufficiency, which belongs to General Duliao's subordinates."

Yanbei handed over a silver seal and blue ribbon symbolizing the official position of two thousand stones to Wang Dang, and at the same time there was a general armor made from Liaodong from the people.

"Subordinates take orders!"

"Li Damu, he has not been rewarded for his achievements on the battlefield, he has been promoted to general, he has transferred 2,000 soldiers and horses, and he has recruited posts under his command for self-sufficiency, and he belongs to General Duliao's subordinates."

"Subordinates take orders!"

It is also a set of armor and silver seal blue ribbons, Li Damu stared at a pair of big eyes, waiting for this moment for a long time! The poor Julu Li family has already become the most prosperous family in Liaodong and even Youzhou in a few years, and the two younger sisters were married to Jiang Jin and Wang Yi, the right-hand men of Jihou Yan Zhongqing in the early years, and the people who courted their other three sisters in the state and county have already stepped on the threshold.

"Pan Ling, he made a meritorious contribution in the first battle of Capturing Goguryeo's Susheng Bone City, was promoted to general, and led 3,000 soldiers and horses from his headquarters to belong to General Duliao's subordinates."

"Thank you, my lord!"

The early Liaodong bandits knew what duty they had to take on in this battle, and the breastplate struck with a shocking sound, with a look of joy on their faces that could not be concealed.

"Jiang Jin, the battle of Yishui River was meritorious, promoted to General Liao, and three days later, he led his troops through Taihang Path and captured Bingzhou!"

Jiang Jin showed a wry smile on his face, and slowly took the seal letter of General Duliao that the real imperial court had handed over to Yanbei in the past, and the military flag painted with the Zongyi seal, and let out a long sigh.

"Oh, my brother, and his mother sent me to fight, so that Ah Jin'an can be a military commander in the subject country, and wait for you to rule the world and make a prince to enjoy yourself?" If you can't get it in this battle, you have to show your stuffing! ’
