The White Horse Raids the Three Kingdoms

The final result of the conflict between Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan was Liu Yu's defeat.

Liu Yu, who had the support of foreign tribes such as Wuhuan and Xianbei, gathered an army of [-], but was defeated by Gongsun Zan, who gathered a thousand horses temporarily.

One of the reasons is that Gongsun Zan was tipped off by Gongsun Ji, and more importantly, Liu Yu was gentle by nature. He asked the troops not to be too cruel. If he wanted to fight Gongsun Zan, he had to do it "gently".

Second, most of Liu Yu's soldiers were not used to fighting, and Liu Yu issued a military order not to harass the people, so they couldn't attack for a long time.

Gongsun Zan then recruited more than a thousand elite soldiers, followed the wind and set fire, and took advantage of the situation to enter Liu Yu's barracks. Liu Yu was defeated.

Gongsun Zan framed Liu Yu and Yuan Shao for proclaiming himself emperor, and forced his subordinates to kill Liu Yu, his wife and children in Jishi.Liu Yu's head was robbed and buried on the road by Liu Yu's former subordinate Ou Dun.

After Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu, he got the whole of Youzhou. He became more and more arrogant, disrespecting the common people, remembering his mistakes and forgetting them well, and he must pay back every grievance.

Liu Yu of the Master Peace faction was destroyed, and Wuhuan and Xianbei who had helped Liu Yu began to panic. Gongsun Zan must deal with them next, so they began to think of ways to protect themselves.

At this time, Qiu Liju, the leader of Wuhuan in western Liaoning, had passed away, and his godson Tadun succeeded to the throne.Ta Dun has outstanding abilities, and he knows how to use the local separatist forces of the Han Dynasty to achieve his goals.

He got married with Yuan Shao, got close to a big tree, and with Yuan Shao's help, Tadun began to rule Wuhuan in the other two counties in name, so that Wuhuan was unified to a certain extent.

As for Yuan Shao, he was also able to get the support of a Wuhuan cavalry when he failed to confront Gongsun Zan.

750 Eight Yuan Shao is not a mediocre person

After Yuan Shao's cavalry was defeated by Gongsun Zan's Baima Yicong, there was no way to solve it. However, after Wuhuan and other clans approached, Yuan Shao's shortcomings were resolved.

With the provision of war horses, Yuan Shao, who is rich and powerful, immediately freed up thousands of cavalry.

It can be said that Wuhuan had defected to Yuan Shao a long time ago. Of course, their defection actually looks more like an alliance. Those Wuhuan people still have autonomy, and the army is not something Yuan Shao can mobilize at will.

Not to mention Xianbei, they did not completely choose to join Yuan Shao. Some of them were led by Youzhou Xianyufu and Qi Zhou. The fire of civil war burns.

Of course, whether it was Wuhuan or Xianbei, they still showed ambiguity towards Yuan Shao on the surface, such a powerful warlord was more suitable to be used, not to annoy him.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the leaders of the Karasuma tribes of the various counties became kings respectively, and the Karasuma tribes in the three counties of Liaoxi, Liaodong, and Youbeiping in the northeast formed an alliance, so it was called the Three Counties Karasuma.

After the death of Qiu Liju, the leader of Karasuma in the three prefectures, because his son Lou Ban was still young, his nephew Tadun, who was quite talented in martial arts, was appointed as the head of the three kings.

When Yuan Shao was fighting Gongsun Zan, Ta Dun took the initiative to send envoys to make peace with Yuan Shao and help Yuan Shao fight Gongsun Zan.

In return, Yuan Shao not only made peace with the kings of the Karasuma tribe, but also sent envoys to worship the three Karasuma kings as Shanyu.

"Historical records: Wuwan, the three prefectures, inherited the chaos of the world and broke Youzhou. There are more than [-] households of Han people. Yuan Shao all established his chieftain as Shanyu, and regarded the family members as his daughters and wives."

For this reason, the pressure on Gongsun Zan in Youzhou became heavier and heavier.

"Yuan Shaopifu, you are so despicable and shameless! How dare you join forces with foreigners, huh! Shameless! Now that the Han Dynasty is in ruins and the princes are ruling the roost, the world will surely fall into a long-term attack!"

"Maybe ten years! Or 100 years! No matter how long it takes, the Han people will be killed and injured instead of those alien races! When we Han people are the weakest, these alien races will attack the Central Plains like a pack of wolves!"

Gongsun Zan roared loudly, his eyes full of indignation.

Of course, there was helplessness, after all, Yuan Shao had already made him feel very uncomfortable, and coupled with the brave Wuhuan and Xianbei cavalry, Gongsun Zan, who was severely injured by Baima Yicong, was also a little helpless.

In the end, he decided that he had to give up Ji County, and instead chose to stick to Yijing, another strong city.

Yijing is not far from Jixian County. Liu Yu was very hostile to Gongsun Zan at the beginning. In order to protect himself, Gongsun Zan led his troops to withdraw from Jixian County and built a solid fortification in Yijing nearby.

This decision later worked, helping Gongsun Zan withstand Liu Yu's sudden attack of 10 people, which shows how strong Yi Jing's defense is.

Even so, Gongsun Zan was not easy to please.

After all, his opponent Yuan Shao is not easy either!

The Yangtze River is rolling and the waves are washing the sand. Even though Yuan Shao, who is above history, has failed, he has been stronger, more brilliant, and more glorious after all.

Yuan Shao is actually not an incompetent person.

Yuan Shao's early ideas led Dong Zhuo to the capital, which indirectly led to a series of bloody events.

Later Yuan Shao planned to wipe out Cao Cao in one fell swoop, but he was defeated in the Battle of Guandu.

Therefore, Yuan Shao's image among the people is basically "handsome but incompetent".

In fact, Yuan Shao is not incompetent.

The Battle of Guandu was just a battle, it was a failure.

Yuan Shao is still strong, and Cao Cao is far from being able to destroy Yuan Shao.The Battle of Guandu is like Cao Cao's Battle of Chibi.

Although they were defeated, they could not deny the abilities of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

There are too many uncertainties in ancient marches and battles, and no one can guarantee victory in every battle.

Cao Cao was just as powerful, but he was still beaten to death by Zhang Xiu's eldest son and General Dian Wei, almost killed by Lu Bu, and burned to death by Zhou Yu in Chibi.

Yuan Shao only lost the battle of Guandu.In general, he is still worthy of the title of talent and military prince of this generation.

Yuan Shao was born in a famous family. Five of the four generations of the Yuan family lived in three official positions. His father Yuan Feng, uncle Yuan Kai, and uncle Yuan Cheng served as Sikong, Situ, and Zuo Zhonglang respectively.And Yuan Shao himself is also among the three princes.

Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the recruitment of talents has adopted the "examination system". At the beginning, famous local people were selected, and later these people became disciples of these famous families. Gradually, the talents selected later were completely controlled in these In the hands of a famous family, and the Yuan family's fourth and third generations are even more famous among the famous families, so Yuan Shao's appeal at the time was extraordinary.

But influence alone is not enough to call the world's talented people to join him, this requires an opportunity.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the eunuchs were under the dictatorship. The eunuchs, represented by Zhao Zhong and Zhang Rang, frantically persecuted the "party members" headed by scholar-bureaucrats and imperial students.

But the key point of this opportunity came. The outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising forced the Eastern Han Dynasty to stop persecuting the party members and amnesty the party members to the world. A big picture.

I also heard that Yuan Benchu, who was a lieutenant in the Chinese Army at the time, dared to kill eunuchs. Coupled with the fact that Yuan's original family was famous, people with both talents and virtues came in droves.

Before the Yellow Turban Uprising, Yuan Shao had a very good personal relationship with Zhang Miao and Xu You, and after that, he was helped by a large number of talented people!

From then on, Yuan Benchu ​​began to flourish. It can be said that the 15 years between Huimeng and Guandu was Yuan Shao's peak period.

During the chaotic period of Dong Zhuo's government, Yuan Shao disagreed with Dong Zhuo's removal of the emperor and called for a crusade against Dong Zhuo's alliance, a movement that gradually gained momentum.

It can be seen that Yuan Shao did not work harder than Cao Cao in his early pioneering work, and his self-made talent was no less than Cao Cao.

Secondly, Yuan Shao defeated many powerful princes in history, the most representative of which was the extinction of Gongsun Zan.

You must know that when he was in the north, Gongsun Zan's army was brave and numerous, and Gongsun Zan always wanted to take the opportunity to unify the north.

Before that, Gongsun Zan was a famous border general. Unlike most princes, Gongsun Zan was not a border official appointed by the court, but a general. His main task was to guard against the northern nomads.

This also determines that Gongsun Zan's military ability is relatively strong, and Gongsun Zan also has an army capable of recruiting and fighting.

However, in the battle of Jieqiao in history, Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Zan by winning more with less, and gradually eroded Gongsun Zan in the following years, and finally eliminated Gongsun Zan.

Yuan Shao was able to extend his power to the four prefectures of Ji, Bing, Qing, and You. In short, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, few incompetent people could write ink in the history books.
