Chapter 752 Zhao Yan and Du Xi

Lu Bu heard very early that Yingchuan was a place with outstanding people. In addition to Xun Yu, Xun You's uncle and nephew and Guo Jia, in addition to Xun Chen, Guo Tu and Xin Ping under Yuan Shao, there were four famous scholars Xinpi, Chen Qun, Du Xi, Zhao Yan, and Lu Bu who had visited him to seek him. Unfortunately, Lu Bu had just arrived in Luoyang and had a bad reputation, so they all refused.

Later, Dong Zhuo occupied Luoyang, and Luoyang was close to Yingchuan. War spread. In order to avoid the war, the four famous scholars in Yingchuan left Yingchuan respectively. Chen Qun moved his family to Xuzhou. Xin Pi followed his brother Xin Ping to surrender to Yuan Shao. Zhao Yan and Du Xi made an appointment to go to Jingzhou for a while, and met his fellow villager Fan Qin there. The three of them fell in love with each other at first sight and suddenly became close friends.

At that time, the governor of Jingzhou was still Han Fu. He had always heard of Zhao Yan, Du Xi and Fan Qin, so he deliberately won them over and treated them with the courtesy of a VIP, and invited them to the government many times. Zhao Yan observed that Han Fu was timid and could not last long, and refused to give in. As expected, less than a year later, Yuan Shao stole Han Fu's Jingzhou.

Yuan Shao also invited Zhao Yan and the other two. Zhao Yan believed that Yuan Shao was slutty and frugal on the inside, and was lenient on the outside but not on the inside. He liked to recruit talents but did not use them. He was not a great master. He continued to refuse and persuaded Fan Qin, who showed off his literary talent in front of Yuan Shao, to stay away from Yuan Shao, so as not to regret it for the rest of his life.

The three of them continued to cross the south, lived in seclusion in Changsha County, waiting for the current situation.

Later, Lu Bu welcomed the Shao Emperor to Yecheng, issued a special order and implemented a military farming system. Zhao Yan believed that "Lu Zhenbei (at that time, Lu Bu was also the General of Zhenbei) was appointed as the emperor and would be able to help China." So he went back together with Du Xi, Fan Qin and others to return to the north. However, the Sili area was occupied by Dong Zhuo, and they could not go north. When they were stranded in Xiangyang, they were invited by Yuan Shaoyan and had no choice but to temporarily serve Yuan Shao.

""After that, Lu Bu attacked Luoyang unexpectedly. He defeated Yuan Shao twice. Yuan Shao was frightened, so he stopped going north to compete with Lu Bu and focused on developing south. Zhao Yan looked down on Yuan Shao more and prepared to go north to join Lu Bu several times. They all stopped because the time was not ripe.

This time, Lu Bu supported the young emperor to return to Luoyang. Yuan Shao and Sun Ce were fighting in full swing in Jiangxia. Worrying that they would be attacked by the enemy on their backs, they wanted to restore their old friendship with Lu Bu, so they sent Xinpi as an envoy to Luoyang to meet the emperor, symbolizing the contribution of part of the tax. Of course, the focus was on paying homage to Grand Sima Lu Bu.

Zhao Yan, Du Xi and Fan Qin took their families and mingled into Xinpi's convoy and headed to Luoyang.

When Lu Bu received the news of Zhao Yan, Du Xi and Fan Qin's arrival, he was overjoyed and personally welcomed the Grand Sima Mansion.

Lu Bu respects Zhao Yan and the other two so much, and really understands that these three people have talents and performances worthy of attention in history.

Zhao Yan's most outstanding talent is his ability to deal with the relationship between generals and is a very outstanding military talent.

In that lifetime, in the second year of Jian'an, Zhao Yan defected to Cao cāo, and Cao cāo appointed Zhao Yan as the chief of Langling. In Langling, Zhao Yan used both kindness and power, and the chaos in Langling quickly improved. Zhao Yan met the Yang'an Duwei Li Tong in Langling. Zhao Yan advised Li Tong to be loyal to Cao cāo, killed Yuan Shao's surrender messenger, and refused Liu Biao's pacification. Then Zhao Yan assisted Li Tong in leading the Yang'an military and civilians, calmed the bandits wandering between the Huai River and the Ru River, and made Yang'an a solid fortress protecting Xuchang. It eliminated Cao's worries about the decisive battle with Yuan Shao.

In the sixth year of Jian'an, because Cao cāo adopted Zao Zhi's suggestion to implement military farming effects, he ordered the army to implement military farming. The three generals of Cao cāo, Zhang Liao, Le Jin and Yu Jin, were stationed in Changshe, Yangzhai and Yingyin respectively, and they were each other... "Because of their high merits and high positions, they often quarreled about trivial matters. As a result, serious frictions occurred, which affected the unity within the army. Cao cāo appointed Zhao Yan as the army, Participated in the military affairs of the three armies of Zhang Liao, Le Jin, and Yu Jin. Zhao Yan used persuasion and guidance to eliminate conflicts and resolve problems, and finally allowed the three generals to eliminate grievances and ensure the unity of the army. Because Zhao Yan was good at governing the army, he was often appointed as the governor and guarding the senior generals of Cao cāo to go out for expeditions. After the founding of the State of Cao Wei, he successively supervised the garrisons of Jingzhou, Yuzhou, Yongzhou, Liangzhou and other places to maintain the stability and unity of the army and do his best to ensure the stability and unity of the army.

In the 24th year of Jian'an, Guan Yu conquered Xiangyang, killed Pang De, surrendered to Jin, flooded the seven armies, and surrounded Cao Ren in Fancheng. Cao cāo appointed Zhao Yan as the army to help Cao Ren guard Fancheng. When he followed the reinforcements led by Xu Huang to the vicinity of Fancheng, all the generals asked to directly attack Guan Yu's army. Zhao Yan pointed out: "Guan Yu is strong and strong, and Fancheng is firmly surrounded. Our army came from afar and exhausted, and there is no news from the city. If you attack immediately, it will only damage it. The soldiers and generals have many disadvantages but no benefits. It is recommended that General Xu set up camp outside the city, and contact the city, so that the soldiers in the city can cheer up their morale, stand firm for help, wait for other reinforcements to arrive, and fight against Guan Yu in one fell swoop, and lift the siege of Fancheng." Zhao Yan also told the generals that if this move is punished by Cao Cāo, he will bear the charge. Xu Huang adopted Zhao Yan's suggestion. Not long after, Sun Quan of the Eastern Wu sent Lu Meng to attack Jingzhou, and Guan Yu was busy Withdrawal of troops to reinforce Jingzhou. The generals advised Cao Ren to take the opportunity to attack Guan Yu. Zhao Yan hurriedly dissuaded him. He pointed out: "Sun Quan took advantage of Guan Yu's opportunity to surround Fancheng and attacked the rear, but because he was afraid that our army would take advantage of the opportunity of both defeats and attacking Dongwu, he praised Wang Qianci of Wei, and was actually observing our army's attitude. Now Guan Yu is difficult to move forward, and his old nest is attacked again, and he is ready to take a gamble. Now it is better to let him fight against Sun Quan, if our army pursues the enemy When Guan Yu went deep into Jiangnan, he would inevitably threaten the Eastern Wu. Sun Quan weighed the pros and cons and tried to repair his relationship with Guan Yu, and "rebirth Lu Bu and Unify the Three Kingdoms Chapter 752 Zhao Yan and Du Shi" to fight against us. This would leave us endless disasters. The King of Wei must be worried about this." Cao Ren agreed with Zhao Yan's analysis. As expected, Cao cāo was worried that Cao Ren would go south to pursue Guan Yu, so he soon sent an envoy to send an order to ask him to withdraw his troops.

Zhao Yan was extremely courageous, resourceful, good at decisive, harmonious, resolute, and moderate, loyal, honest and honest, and worthy of Lu Bu's reverence. Lu Bu still appointed him as the Grand Sima Officer. A few months later, he was named the magistrate of Langling County, and later appointed him as the prefect of Shangyong County, and later served as the General Staff Army of Jingzhou.

Du Xi's talent is similar to Zhao Yan, and he is also a very outstanding military talent.

In that life, Du Xi saw that Liu Biao seemed to be gentle and generous outside, treated others without being polite, but was very suspicious and indecisive. In the chaotic situation where the heroes fought and fought for the Central Plains, the winners were kings and princes and losers, Liu Biao was definitely not someone who could be entrusted for life, so he gradually wanted to leave. Fan Qin, the same county, always wrote poems and lyrics at the banquet, or joked and made fun of Liu Biao, but Du Xi was deeply dissatisfied with this. Once, Liu Biao left the seat, and Du Xi treated Fan Qin very seriously. He said, "The reason why we stay away from our hometown and hide in the wet foothills in the southern part is like a dragon hiding in the secluded riverside, waiting for the opportunity to fly for nine nights. Can we treat Liu Biao as the master who turns the tide and sets things right and commits himself to him? If you cannot restrain yourself and blindly sell tricks and favors in front of mediocre masters, we will no longer be friends." Fan Qin couldn't help but feel respectful and answered respectfully: "I am willing to obey your teachings."

Du Xi followed Zhao Yan to Cao cāo and was appointed as the chief of Xi'e by Cao cāo. The county was close to the southern border and bandits were rampant. At that time, the county officials gathered the people to guard the city and could not cultivate the fields. The fields were deserted, the people were poor, and the warehouses were empty. Du Xi sent the old and weak people to his hometown to engage in field labor, leaving behind strong men to defend the county. Just when Liu Biao in Jingzhou sent 10,000 infantry and cavalrymen to "reborn Lu Bu and unify the Three Kingdoms" to attack the county, Du Xi summoned all guards.

The city had more than 500 officials and people, and they made an oath with them. They kowtowed to show their efforts to fight to the death. Du Xi personally took the bow and arrows and stones and led them to fight together. The officials and people were very moved and were willing to sacrifice their lives for him. They killed hundreds of enemies in the battle. More than 30 of Du Xi's subordinates died, and the remaining eighteen were injured. The Jingzhou army attacked the city. Du Xi led the wounded officials and people to break out of the city. Almost all of them died in battle, but none of them rebeled.

Zhong Yao, the Sili School Commander, submitted a letter to recommend Du Xi and was appointed as the military officer. Xun may also recommend Du Xi, and Cao cāo appointed him as the prime minister's army to sacrificial wine. Du Xi later served as the prime minister and followed Cao cāo to Hanzhong to fight Zhang Lu. When Cao cāo returned, he kept Du Xi down to command the military officers of Hanzhong. Du Xi appeased and enlightened the people, and the people were willing to move out of Luoyang and Yecheng, and there were more than 80,000 people.

Xiahou Yuan was killed by Huang Zhong, and the Cao army in Hanzhong lost the commander, and the soldiers were very frightened. Du Xi, Zhang He and Guo Huai jointly presided over the military affairs, and Zhang He was temporarily the commander, so the three armies settled down. When Cao cāo returned to Yecheng, he had to choose the chief of Liufu to guard Chang'an. The people in charge of this matter were inappropriate. Cao cāo said: "If you don't go to ride a thousand-mile horse, why should you rush to seek elsewhere?" So he appointed Du Xi as the chief of Liufu and stationed in Guanzhong.

Lu Bu talked with Du Xi for a long time and found that although this person is not amazing, he has good plans. Moreover, he will not be so arrogant when he advises others. Instead, he will change the way that the superiors can accept, and the success rate is much higher than the direct advice. Lu Bu admires him very much, because only in this way can he successfully persuade his lord and truly use his intelligence and talents. This is indeed worth learning from Tian Feng, Ju Su and others. However, Tian Feng and Ju Su are now relying on Lu Bu. They do not need to learn this skill. Lu Bu himself has the ability to stand far-sighted and distinguish right from wrong.

""The appointments of Du Xi, such as Zhao Yan, were first appointed as the Grand Sima clerk, and when the ideological rectification was almost done, he was released to Caiyang County near Xiangyang as the county magistrate. His political achievements were outstanding, and he was promoted to the prefect of Runan County, and then he joined the state army.

Fan Qin is known for his literary talent. Although he is not as famous as the Qizi of Jian'an, he has a unique style. His "Lotus Tree Poems" and "Lu Fu" were passed down in later generations. The "Lotus Tree Poems": "The beautiful trees sprinkle green leaves, and are listed at the end of the two palaces. The slight trees move with the wind, and are soft and scattered." Liu Fu: "There are parasitic lone willows, and I ask me to sleep in the south corner. I go through Zhaoyang to spit out teeth, and because of the chun wind, I spread the green leaves and scattered. The green leaves are turned into lushness. The green leaves are lush, and the green leaves are lush. The clear liquid of the morning dew is soaked, and the brightness is soaked in the morning dew, and the brightness is soaked in the brightness."

In history, he followed Zhao Yan and Du Xi defected to Cao cāo. He was once the prime minister of Cao cāo. He was famous for his good writing poetry, essays and articles.
