Wen Chou's army was stationed at the beginning of the north of Ye County. After Wen Chou ordered Lu Liang, Tian Chou and others, they made them feel at ease to set up camp here, and then led Wen Ba and continued to head towards Ye County. Because there was another thing that required his participation.

When Wen Chou arrived, there would naturally be a banquet that thought that Wen Chou would be welcomed. The banquet held by important figures like Wen Chou was naturally overcrowded. In Ye County, not only Han Fu's subordinates, but also all the staff members were in place, but some wealthy families also gave Wen Chou a very favorable face and came one after another.

Therefore, Wen Chou has come into contact with many famous people at this banquet. It can be said that this is the most grand banquet he has ever come into contact with and the highest-standard one. Because if every person present is placed outside, he will definitely be a person in a place and is a person who is the kind of county monarch and county officials who have to go out to welcome him. They are all heroes of a state.

There are many people who need to pay attention to this ugly thing. There is no need to say much about the famous masters in Jizhou. In the understanding of Wen Chou, only Zhang He, Gao Lan, Qu Yi, Zhu Ling, Dong Zhao, Jiang Yiqu, Jiao Chu and other civil servants and generals under Yuan Shao were following Han Fu at the beginning, and there were also a large number of soldiers who were not familiar with Wen Chou, who were not familiar with, who were engaged in leading the army.

Zhang He, Gao Lan and others can be said to be potential stocks, so they naturally need to establish a good relationship first. Even if they cannot poach Han Fu's corners and bring them under their command, they must make their names imprinted in their hearts.

Those who are not familiar with Wen Chou are also good friends for Wen Chou, because since they can win Han Fu's attention and become Han Fu and his team of staff, they naturally have their own uniqueness, not to mention that they are all powerful figures, no matter which aspect, they should make friends with them.

Speaking of making friends with Han Fu's aides, wise men, powerful generals and heroes, it is necessary to give them a brief introduction.

It is very necessary for Qu Yi, who is the only one who leads the army like Wen Chou, who is named second only to the general, to make friends with Wen Chou in person. Although it may not necessarily be favored by Qu Yi, such a famous person, if Wen Chou does not see him personally, he will definitely regret his life.

Qu Yi, the governor, led an army alone and stationed in the south of Ye County. He was far away from the Wushang Army of Wen Chou, representing the highest combat power of Jizhou.

Qu Yi is one of the best generals during the Three Kingdoms period. According to the records of Heroes, "Twenty miles south of He Zhan Jieqiao, Zan's infantry was more than 30,000 square Chen, and rode horses on both wings, with more than 5,000 horses on both sides. The white horse Yicong was the backbone, and it was also divided into two schools. The commander of Shao ordered Qu Yi to take 800 soldiers as the first step, and a thousand powerful crossbows were inherited. Shao himself formed a formation with tens of thousands of infantry soldiers in the back."

"Shen Zan saw that his soldiers were few, he let out his cavalry and wanted to rush to the camp. The Yi soldiers all hid under the shield and did not move. Before they reached dozens of steps, they all stood up at the same time, shouted at the dust and clashed forward. When the crossbow rains broke out, they would fall down. After Chen killed the head of Yan Gang, the governor of Jizhou, who was appointed by Chen, and the soldiers of the Jizhou were defeated, and the cavalry ran away. They did not return to the camp. Yi chased to the Jieqiao, and the soldiers of the Zan Hall returned to the battle bridge. Yi broke out again and then went to Zan's camp. He pulled his teeth gate, and the rest of the people in the camp were scattered again. Zan's troops burst out more than 2,000 cavalry soldiers, and they surrounded Shao several times. The bow and arrow rain fell, and Qu Yi came to greet him, and then dispersed."

That is to say, in the Battle of Jieqiao, Qu Yi used 800 swords, axes and 1,000 crossbowmen to resolutely resist Gongsun Zan's powerful white horse Yichi attacked one after another. The last counterattack killed Gongsun Zan tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry to throw away armor. Qu Yi took advantage of the victory and chased until Gongsun Zan's central camp twenty miles away. He cut off the flag of the Yamen before returning triumphantly. On the way, he also dispersed another cavalry that besieged Yuan Shao to rescue Yuan Shao, creating a glorious battle example of winning with less. Although the Battle of Jieqiao did not completely change the strength comparison between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, it greatly increased the ambition of Yuan Shao and his followers.

After the Jieqiao Battle, Qu Yi was ordered to confront Gongsun Zan many times, with more victory and fewer defeats. Gongsun Zan's title of White Horse General was not obtained in vain, but he obtained it in the long-term battle with foreign tribes. Gongsun Zan's fundamental core soldier, Baima Yi, was not very weak, but he was still defeated by Qu Yi, which shows the might of Qu Yi and his army.

In theory, the Qu surname is a small surname, which is not rare in later generations. How could Qu Yi be so brave and have the elite soldiers carefully created by Wen Chou over the years and use the experience of countless later generations and knowledge to carefully create the elite soldiers. This requires the powerful army to start with Qu Yi's origin.

From some information specially heard by Wen Chou, it was inferred that the Qu surname should have been changed by Ju family. Ju Tan, the Shangshu Ling of Emperor Ai of the previous dynasty, was implicated by Dongping King Liu Yun's "The Rebellion of Hushan Lishi" and was demoted to the people. Because he was afraid of further persecution, he led his son Ju Gu to "take refuge in Huangzhong, and because he lived in Xiping, he changed Ju to Qu" to change his surname. From then on, Ju Gu was buried in his name and changed his surname to Qu, and was the first ancestor of the Qu family of Xiping.

It is precisely because of this that he is active in Xiping, Jincheng, Linqiang and other places, interacting with Qianghu people, taking Qianghu as neighbors, and living in crisscrossing places. It can be said that you have me and I have you. The Western Qiang people are fighting, brave and powerful, and often make a living by looting. They gather together, whistling, leaving with a full load, and floating around.

When the local government was unable to provide effective protection, their family, on the one hand, paid a lot of money to bribe the Qianghu people to obtain temporary peace, and on the other hand, to establish a strong family armed force for effective self-defense, was the main strategy for their family to survive at that time.

In the long-term battle against the reunion, this family armed forces were greatly trained. They mastered and used the Qiang fast horse scimitar and unexpectedly made a powerful Qu family armed group that shocked one side. This was why Qu Yi's powerful army could intimidate the army of Jizhou and a state of Jizhou.

In fact, except for the above mentioned battle, it did not happen, but in the famous Battle of Jieqiao in later generations, Qu Yi also participated in some other wars.

In the seventh year of the late Emperor Guanghe, it was also the first year of Zhongping. The Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out in the Central Plains. The late emperor sent the left general Huangfu Song to quell the rebellion. In the third year of Zhongping, Huangfu Song went to Liangzhou to recruit soldiers. Qu Yi led more than 1,000 brave soldiers from his family to respond. In Jizhou, all the battles with the Yellow Turban Army in Bingzhou were won and they were very appreciated by Huangfu Song. After the rebellion was over, Huangfu Song returned to the court, and Qu Yi stayed in Liyang. Then he became a capable general under Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou.

However, even though he was so powerful, although Wen Chou wanted to make friends with him, he was limited to ordinary friendships. He did not intend to take him under his command. Because Qu Yi's character was not worthy of praise. In history, he betrayed Han Fu shortly after being under Han Fu's command, and as Yuan Shao's vanguard army, he used military strength to intimidate Han Fu and forced Han Fu to give way to the governor of Jizhou to Yuan Shao.

This is his infidelity. His character also confirmed his tragic ending. Qu Yi did not betray anything in Yuan Shao's camp. Instead, he made great achievements in Yuan Shao's military achievements, but the result was very tragic. In the fourth year of Jian'an, when Yuan Shao sent heavy troops to siege Yi Jing and finally eliminated Gongsun Zan, he lured Qu Yi to kill him.

This passage is recorded in the biography of Yuan Shao in the Later Han Dynasty. "I have made contributions and are arrogant and unruly, and Shao summoned him to kill him and merged with his many people."

Since the strategy of treating Qu Yi has been determined and since it cannot be used for yourself, we can only try not to make him your enemy as much as possible. If you become your enemy, you must also establish a good relationship first so as to leave a front line and leave a chance.

In addition to Qu Yi, Wen Chou valued the most the second of the four pillars in Hebei. These two people are Zhang He in Hejian, Gao Lan of Qinghe, of course Zhu Ling, the most likely talent he is to obtain, is also one of the targets Wen Chou needs to fight for.

As a general who participated in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang He was highly valued by Han Fu. Now, as the position of Sima of the Army, although he is slightly inferior to Wen Chou, he is also a prominent position and a heavy position.

However, according to what Wen Chou learned in his previous life, Zhang He later served as Qu Yi and served Yuan Shao. He also made many military achievements when attacking Gongsun Zan and was promoted to the General of the Central Army of Ningguo.

In the famous Battle of Guandu in later generations, Zhang He made another important decision, which made him well-known in later generations.

At that time, Cao Cao attacked Wuchao. Zhang He said: Cao Gong's soldiers were brave and good at fighting. They would definitely defeat Chun Yuqiong and others. Once Chun Yuqiong fails, the general's great cause is over. You should lead troops to rescue as soon as possible. But the adviser Guo Tu said: Zhang He was not saying a good idea. Our army was better than attacking Cao Cao's camp. Cao Cao would definitely rescue him. In this way, Chun Yuqiong's danger was not saved.

Zhang He retorted: Cao Gong's camp was solid and he would definitely not be able to capture it in a hurry. If Chunyu Qiong and others were captured, we would also be captured. As a result, Yuan Shao believed Guo Tu and did not listen to Zhang He's dissuasion and sent him to attack Cao Cao's military camp. In the end, not only did he fail to capture, but Wuchao, which lacked rescue, was also robbed.

After the failure of General Guo Tu's plan, he falsely accused Zhang He of failure and spoke rudely. Generals such as Zhang He were afraid of being pursued, so he surrendered to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was happy with Zhang He's surrender, and personally welcomed Ruweizi to Yin, Han Xin returned to Han, and then served as a general and was granted the title of Duting Marquis. This was the case when Zhang He surrendered to Cao Cao, and from then on he embarked on a glorious life.

In the 20th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao marched westward to Zhang Lu, arrived in Chencang, and prepared to enter the Di tribe from Wudu County. The Di tribes blocked the road, and Cao Cao sent Zhang He to command a large army to attack the troops of Liang Xing and the Di leader Dou Mao. Soon after, he entered Hanzhong from Sanguan and sent Zhang He to lead 5,000 infantry to open the road ahead, until Yangping. Zhang Lu surrendered, Cao Cao returned to his army, leaving Zhang He, Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang and others to guard Hanzhong to resist Liu Bei.

In the same year, Zhang He led the army south to attack Badong and Baxi counties, and moved the local people to Hanzhong. Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei, the general of the expedition, to be the prefect of Baxi County, to fight against Zhang He. Zhang He led his army to Dangqu and resisted Zhang Fei for more than 50 days. Zhang Fei led more than 10,000 elite troops to attack Zhang He from a small path. Because the mountain road was narrow and could not be rescued from the head and tail, Zhang He was defeated and only brought more than ten people to abandon his horse and climb the mountain to escape. Then he gathered the defeated troops and withdrew to Nanzheng. He was promoted to the general of the bandit.

In the 24th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei personally led more than 10,000 elite troops, divided into ten units, and attacked Zhang He fiercely at night. Zhang He led his personal troops to fight against the Shu army. Liu Bei could not conquer Zhang He, so he wrote a letter asking Yizhou to send reinforcements. Zhuge Liang hesitated for a while, and Yang Hong advised him: Hanzhong is the gateway to Yizhou, without Hanzhong or Yizhou, hesitated. Zhuge Liang suddenly realized and immediately sent troops to reinforce.

Later, Liu Bei retreated to the Magu and set fire to the camp. Xiahou Yuan knew that Zhang He had few soldiers and transferred some troops to reinforce and put out the fire. On the way, he met Liu Bei's army and was killed by the Shu army. Cao's army was defeated, and Zhang He retreated with the defeated army to defend Yangping Guandong. When Liu Bei heard that Xiahou Yuan was beheaded, he only said: What's the use of killing Xiahou Yuan?

Sima Guo Huai and the governor Du Xi restrained the scattered soldiers. Seeing this, Guo Huai said: General Zhang is a famous general of the country, and Liu Bei is also afraid of him. The situation is urgent now, and only General Zhang can calm the morale of the army. So everyone elected Zhang He as the commander, commanded the soldiers, and arranged camps, and the morale of the army was stable. Soon, Cao Cao sent an envoy to order Zhang He to take the opportunity. Liu Bei wanted to cross the Han River to attack, but saw the Wei army lined up to meet him north of the Han River, so Liu Bei gave up crossing the river and fought against each other across the water. Cao Cao personally attacked Hanzhong, but could not win, so he withdrew from Hanzhong's troops and ordered Zhang He to station troops in Chencang.

In the first year of Yankang, after Cao Pi ascended the throne of Wei, he appointed Zhang He as the left general and promoted the title of Marquis of Duxiang. After Cao Pi ascended the throne, he was appointed as the Marquis of Zhen and ordered Zhang He and Cao Zhen to lead troops to attack the Hu people of Lushui and Qiang people in the Anding generation. After the battle, Cao Pi summoned Zhang He and Cao Zhen at Xuchang Palace and sent Zhang He to the south to attack Jiangxia County of the Eastern Wu regime with Xiahou Shang. Zhang He led several armies alone across the Yangtze River and seized the Wu army fortress on Bailizhou.

In the second year of Taihe, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, launched a large-scale attack on the north, Tianshui, Nan'an and the officials and civilians in the three counties rebelled against Zhuge Liang. At that time, the court officials did not know what to do, and Cao Rui said confidently: Zhuge Liang relied on the danger and was not easy to attack. Now he came automatically, which was in line with the tactics of leading out of the enemy. It was certain to defeat Zhuge Liang. So Cao Rui added Zhang He to the special promotion and asked him to govern the army and horses of various groups to block Zhuge Liang's general Ma Su at Jieting.

Ma Su set up a camp on the dangerous Nanshan Mountain and did not go down the mountain to occupy the city. Zhang He cut off his way to fetch water, then launched an attack, defeating Ma Su. Nan'an, Tianshui and Anding counties rebelled against Wei and responded to Zhuge Liang. Zhang He led his troops to pacify these places. Cao Rui issued an edict saying: The bandits Zhuge Liang led the mobs of Ba and Shu and met our soldiers like tigers. General, you are shawl-covered and held sharp weapons, and you will defeat all your attacks. I want to reward you for your great achievements and increase your fief by one thousand households, and a total of four thousand three hundred households with one thousand rewards."

This is Zhang He's glorious history of war. With such a strong record, Wen Chou is naturally quite concerned about it. However, these things will not happen again, because Wen Chou has all the conditions to recruit Zhang He. However, Zhang He's military career will be even more brilliant under Wen Chou's command. ~Search the basket and read the following chapters in full text
