Lu Dynasty

Chapter 489 Tian Chou
The great talent who came to Luoyang was none other than Tian Chou and Tian Zitai who helped Cao Cong in the history to break Wuhuan!Tian Chou is not an ordinary person, his experience is very similar to Guan Ning's.When Liu Yu recruited talents to go to the imperial court, someone recommended Tian Chou, and Liu Yu appointed him as an envoy to Youzhou and sent him to Chang'an.Before Tian Chou left, he warned Liu Yu that Gongsun Zan was a serious problem and should be eliminated, but Liu Yu ignored it.When Tian Chou was sent as an envoy to the imperial court, Dong Zhuo was in chaos, and the eighteen princes gathered at Hulao Pass. Instead of taking the domestic route, he chose to travel to Shuofang and successfully arrived in Chang'an.The court worshiped him as the riding captain, but he refused.The three princes jointly recommended him, but he also rejected it.

When Tian Chou returned to Youzhou, Liu Yu had been killed by Gongsun Yu.He set up a sacrifice and cried loudly, and even Gongsun Yu was afraid of his reputation and dared not harm him.Tian Chou, who returned to Youzhou, lived in seclusion in Xu Wushan, farming to support his parents and attract the people.Over the past few years, more than [-] families have gathered near him.After Tian Chou was elected as a leader by the people, he made laws, established rituals, and opened schools to preach.Wuhuan and Xianbei each sent envoys to submit tribute.During this period, Tian Chou also rejected the appointment of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang, and later Tian Chou moved to Yecheng as a last resort!In history, Cao tried to forcibly award Tian Chou several times, and even sent Xiahou Dun to persuade him, but Tian Chou refused.

Tian Chou lived in Youbeiping for generations, and he had witnessed the chaos of the foreign clans with his own eyes, and that scene made him unforgettable in his life!Although both Wuhuan and Xianbei had sent envoys to express their obedience, in his heart he still believed that people who are not of our race must have different hearts.Now that Yuan Shao actually colluded with foreigners, Tian Chou moved his family to Luoyang in a rage.It's a pity, he didn't come to join me, he just ran away because he saw Yuan Shao was upset.As for whether Tian Chou will help me defend against foreigners, there is no doubt about it, even if he doesn't like me, as long as it is against foreigners, he will not hesitate!However, what I didn't expect was that although Tian Chou was only in his 30s, he had a very good relationship with Cai Yong, Qiao Xuan, and Kong Rong.If he didn't want to be an official, I would definitely throw him to the Ministry of Rites too!
Since Tian Chou is a well-known celebrity in Youzhou, Yuan Shao is naturally unwilling to move to Luoyang.But Tian Chou has made up his mind, and Yuan Shao has nothing to do with him.Originally, Yuan Shao wanted to send someone to assassinate Tian Chou on the way. Who would have thought that the leader of the assassins was also from Youzhou. He admired Tian Chou very much. Not only did he not assassinate Tian Chou, but he even escorted Tian Chou all the way to Luoyang.By the time Yuan Shao knew all this, it was too late, Tian Chou had already sat in Luoyang's Jimin Restaurant tasting wine!An angry Yuan Shao wanted to vent his anger on the leader of the assassins, but unfortunately, no one in this world is a fool.The leader of the assassins knew that he had disobeyed Yuan Shao's order, if he went back, he would definitely end badly, he had already disappeared without a trace!
Although Tian Chou didn't want to be an official, I still gave him the right to enter and exit the staff department.How to say Tian Chou is also a rare talent, whether it is vision or resourcefulness, he is good.More importantly, he knows Wuhuan very well, maybe one day he will be able to play an important role!

After the autumn harvest, Yuan Shao, who has been in contact with foreign tribes for a year, is finally ready to send troops!In fact, foreigners are very afraid of Lu Bu. When Lu Bu and I slaughtered the Qiang people in the grassland, the White Tiger God always appeared in two places at the same time.Not to mention that the Qiang people dare not lick my tiger whiskers easily, even big clans like the Xiongnu and Wuhuan are very afraid of me!It took Yuan Shao nearly a year to convince the surrounding foreigners to send troops to attack me!However, the leaders of the foreign tribes would not send troops until after the autumn harvest, because the foreign tribes never brought military rations when fighting.However, the reason why these foreign leaders agreed to send troops to attack me was because they were jealous of the food in my territory.If it was a family, they wouldn't dare to do anything. With so many troops this time, the leaders of the foreign tribes felt that they could take advantage of it, but what they didn't know was that what was waiting for them was my butcher knife raised high!

The foreign coalition forces are dominated by the Yuan Shao Army, the Xiongnu Army, and the Wuhuan Army, supplemented by other small tribes such as Di, Jie, and Xianbei. However, the Xiongnu has now been divided into the North and the South. The Southern Huns are close to the Han, and the Northern Huns seem to have migrated To a place other than Dahan!As for the alliance leader of the foreign coalition forces, Yuan Shao is naturally, maybe he is used to being the leader.

As soon as the grain in Sizhou was harvested, Zhang Ji, the governor of Bingzhou, and Li Jue, the general of Bingzhou, jointly sent a letter for help.The letter said that Yuan Shao's army had already started marching towards Bingzhou, the Huns were attacking Yunzhong, Yuan Shao was attacking Shangdang and Taiyuan, and the Wuhuan people were attacking Yanmen.After reading the letter of appeal for help, I immediately gathered the staff to discuss how to send troops to resist Yuan Shao's foreign coalition forces. The more critical the moment is, the more we can't be chaotic.

After everyone gathered, after listening to my explanation of the situation in Bingzhou, everyone fell into silence.Although Yuan Shao's coalition army did not have 200 million, it exceeded 100 million, close to 150 million. Yuan Shao claimed that the 200 million coalition army attacked Bingzhou in four directions!And our army, full of fights and calculations, only has 50 troops. Among them, the Bingzhou troops of Li Jue and Guo Si and the Liangzhou army of Yan Xing are all over-age soldiers, and they add up to less than 15.And Li and Guo's Bingzhou Army has entered the battle!In other words, I still have 35 troops available, including recruits!

After a while of silence in the conference hall, Guo Jia stood up and said, "My lord, now that Liangzhou Ma Chao and the Qiang people in Liangzhou have joined us, it is better to transfer Yan Xing's troops to Bingzhou to resist Wuhuan or the Xiongnu. When the Qiang fight against foreigners, it will definitely be more effective with half the effort!"

"Order Yan Xing's troops to go to Bingzhou and obey the command of General Lu Bu. Order Zhao Lei to guard Chang'an, Zang Ba to guard Luoyang, Xu Rong, Hua Xiong, Zhang Xiu, Cheng Lian, and Cao Xing to guard the fortress leading to Bingliang. Dao, obey Gao Shun's orders! Dianman and Xu Yi guard the inner city of Luoyang to protect the officials and their families, and only obey my orders!" Guo Jia's suggestion is very correct, and I have no reason not to accept it.It doesn't matter if Bingliang Prefecture is lost, Sili must not be lost, my foundation is basically here, so I use Zhao Lei, Zang Ba, and Gao Shun to guard it!Even if there are enemy troops here, they are at most small groups of troops.If the enemy's large force hits Sizhou, I should lead the troops back.

"Obey!" Gao Shun, Zhao Lei, and Zang Ba were all in the conference hall. As soon as I made arrangements, they stood up to receive the order, and took the order I gave to Hou Cheng and the others, ready to pass it on to them!

"Brother! How can you let me command such a big battle?" Although Lu Bu is very capable of fighting, he is skeptical about whether he can handle such a large-scale battle!
