Cao Cao's fortification map in Guandu campaign
Because Yuan Shao didn't listen to Tian Feng's suggestion of welcoming the emperor, Cao Cao was able to hold the emperor to make the princes, which embarrassed Yuan Shao's work. Yuan Shao felt that he was very powerful, so he decided to mobilize 100,000 soldiers and horses, take many capitals south, destroy Cao Cao, and the battle of Guandu began. At the beginning of the war, Yuan Shao's strength was definitely greater than Cao Cao's, so Cao Cao did not choose to deploy troops to defend along the Yellow River, but focused on building fortifications at various checkpoints, especially Guandu, the only place where Yuan Jun passed.
Cao Cao's protection is correct, giving full play to the absolute interests of fewer people. During this period, Liu Bei also opposed Cao Cao, and Cao Cao quickly dealt with Liu Bei in the rear. Lombardi didn't listen to Tian Feng's suggestion of "attacking from behind" at this time, so Cao Cao calmly cleaned up Liu Bei and dropped Guan Yu by the way, and then Cao Caocai had all his energy to deal with Lombardi. Cao Cao caught him off guard with a diversion. Guan Yu killed general Yan Liang, but Wen Chou was killed by rebels. After that, the two armies were deadlocked for half a year. It happened that Xu You of Yuan Shao's army went to Cao Cao's account and suggested that Cao Cao attack Yuan Shao's grain depot in the Wu Dynasty at night, and the turning point of the battle of Guandu began.
Cao Cao led a good soldier to set fire to his lair, Yuan Shao sent troops to rescue him, and he cleverly attacked Cao Cao's camp. Unexpectedly, Wu Chao was quickly captured, Chunyu Qiong was killed, and Zhang A, Gao Lan and others surrendered. Yuan Shao's army collapsed immediately, and his morale was scattered. In the end, Yuan Shao could only lead 800 troops back to Jizhou. The battle of Guandu laid the foundation for Cao Cao to unify the north, and soon Yuan Shao died of depression.
After Yuan Shao's territory, He Jin, summoned governors from all walks of life to Luoyang, Dong Zhuo occupied Luoyang city with his own strong army, abolished the Han emperor, and ran amok in the DPRK. The Han Dynasty had fallen apart and existed in name only, so the war of annexing land began in the place where the world powers were separated.
Pattern map of the late Eastern Han Dynasty
After Yuan Shao escaped from Luoyang, his territory was only a small Bohai county, which obviously could not satisfy his desire for territory and strength, so at this time he turned his attention to Jizhou and Han Fu. Jizhou, located in the Central Plains, is a place rich in materials in the world. If you get him, you will have enough sources of military power. Han Fu, the owner of Jizhou, is a timid and suspicious person. Facing the eyes of Gongsun Zan and several forces, he was fooled by Yuan Shao's people and gave him Jizhou, so Yuan Shao really had a useful and important territory.
Then Yuan Shao sent troops to pacify Qingzhou Yellow Scarf Army, wiped out Zhang Yan in Montenegro and brought Qingzhou under his control. Yuan Tan, son of Yuan Shao, was appointed as Qingzhou secretariat. After attacking heaven in the north and Kong Rong in the east, Yuan finally occupied the whole Qingzhou.
In the second year of Chuping (A.D. 19 1), Gongsun Zan believed that Yuan Shao was involved in the death of his brother Gongsun Yue, so he sent his troops south to Jizhou, and the battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan began. During this period, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shu cooperated, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao joined hands, and the two sides were deadlocked for two or three years. After that, Gongsun Zan gradually lost to Yuan Shao's army. In the third year of Jian 'an (A.D. 198), Yuan Shao personally led an army to attack Youzhou, and all the way was unstoppable, taking the righteous well. Finally, Gongsun Zan died of defeat and self-immolation. Yuan Shao occupied Youzhou and incorporated Gongsun Zan's troops.
At the peak of his life, Yuan Shao acted in Jizhou, Qingzhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou. Although the vastness of the land is not the largest, the degree of wealth and affluence is the highest, so Yuan Shao can become the leading strongman at that time.
Is Yuan Ang a descendant of Yuan Shao? Yuan Shao is not a descendant of Yuan Ang. It is reported that Yuan Ang may be from Ganxian, Anhui, and Yuan Shao is from Shangshui, Zhoukou, Henan. Yuan Shao, son of Sikong Yuanfeng, was a famous warlord in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Born in a noble family, five of the four generations since grandfather's uncle held three positions in official career. Therefore, it is precisely because of this that his family has a reputation of four generations and three publics.
Yuan Shao
Yuan Shao, the beginning of the word. Because he is handsome and mighty, he is very popular with Yuan Feng and Wei Yuan. With the power of a famous family, he became a magistrate of Puyang county before he was twenty years old, which was a clean and honest official. After Liu Bian succeeded to the throne, He Jin appointed Yuan Shao as the team leader. Later, Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang. Dong Zhuo was very arrogant. In order to establish personal authority, he decided to abolish Li, which made Luoyang complain. So the governors rose up and asked for Dong, and Yuan Shao was elected as the leader of the anti-Dong joint army to fight Dong Zhuo. Later, there was no food and grass, and the vassal Coalition was forced to dissolve, and a crusade fell through.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao occupied Jizhou, and later captured Qingzhou and Bingzhou successively, defeating Gongsun Zan, a warlord separated from Youzhou, and his power was extremely strong and reached its peak. When the first world war with Cao Cao was inevitable, Yuan Shao led 1 00000 elite infantry and100000 cavalry to attack Xudu, hoping to destroy Cao Cao in one fell swoop. Later, he was defeated because he didn't listen to Tian Feng, the counselor. After returning to Jizhou, Yuan Shao put down rebellions in various places one after another. It didn't take long to get sick and die. Because Yuan Shao has been carrying out political measures and achievements to benefit the people, when Yuan Shao died, no one in Hebei was not sad, and people all over the street shed tears, as if all their relatives had died.
The relationship between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao In the History of the Three Kingdoms and later romance novels, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were the two most important figures in the early period of the Three Kingdoms. Yuan Shao is divided into Jizhou, Qingzhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou, which is quite imposing. But he was defeated by Cao Cao in Guandu World War I, which made Cao Cao a real strength faction, a vassal and a target of public criticism.
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao
Throughout the life of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, they took a road from cooperation to division. When Cao Cao was a teenager, he still admired Yuan Shao. In the second year of Jianning (A.D. 169), Cao Cao entered imperial academy and got to know Yuan Shao, who was closely related. In the third year of Xiping (A.D. 174), both Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were important officials of the imperial court. After that, they hardly had a chance to meet, until the first year of Chuping (AD 190), Dong Zhuo ran amok in Luoyang and killed Zhong Liang, making everyone hate him. So Cao Cao, like all the princes, came to Yuan Shao's account and tried to make an alliance against Dong Zhuo. However, the allies have their own intentions, fighting in their own way, and even looking on coldly. The war led by Cao Cao was defeated for the first time, which weakened him greatly. Finally, I can only attach myself to Yuan Shao.
After that, Yuan Shao occupied Jizhou and handed over Kanto to Cao Cao as an agent. During this period, Cao Cao also used this condition to March into Dongjun in the name of crusade against the Black Mountain Army. In the third year of Chuping (AD 192), Liu Dai died, and Bao Xin transferred Yanzhou to Cao Cao. From then on, Cao Cao had his own usable territory. But at this time, Cao Cao still faces formidable enemies from all directions, such as Yuan Shu and Gongsun Zan, so he still needs Yuan Shao's containment.
When Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao fought, although Cao Cao was also involved, it also gave him a breathing space. Finally, there was a disagreement with Yuan Shao on the issue of welcoming the son of heaven. As an emperor, Cao Cao grew rapidly and ushered in a decisive battle with Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao's new edition of The Three Kingdoms (20 1 1) was released by David at that time, vividly reappearing the complexity, distinctive characters and unpredictable strategies of the Three Kingdoms, which really feasted the audience. Yuan Shao, one of the important figures, is also impressive.
Yuan Shao in the New Three Kingdoms
As soon as Yuan Shao appeared, he wanted to call on heroes from all walks of life to gather, with the intention of punishing Dong Zhuo, who wantonly hurt Zhongliang in Luoyang. Because Yuan Shao was born in a noble family of "four generations and three publics", he has a great reputation. It is said that all the 18 th Route Governors gathered in front of Yuan Shao's hall, including Cao Cao and three famous generals Liu Bei. Although it was an alliance, Cao Cao also saw that it was actually a mob with ulterior motives, but Yuan Shao was still intoxicated with the leader.
Dong Zhuo was forced to move the capital to Chang 'an, and Yuan Shao and others were left with useless empty cities. After being a leader for a period of time, Yuan Shao returned to Jizhou, the base area. In the play, Yuan Shao did not listen to Xu You's opinion (historical records, Tian Feng said) and married the son of heaven who fled to the East. Instead, I listened to Tian Feng and others' theory that the son of heaven was useless, and let Cao take advantage of it. Seeing that Cao Cao was sitting up, Yuan Shao, who was impatient, asked the adviser if he wanted to fight, and finally chose Xu You's opinion and directly won Xu Du.
Liu Bei was trapped and hoped to attack Cao Cao with Yuan Shao. But at this time, Yuan Shao's youngest son was ill in the army and could not travel far, so he did not agree to send troops. Xu You tried his best to protest and was finally scolded by the staff. Yuan Shao missed another good opportunity. After Yuan Shao's child recovered from illness, he began his original plan to attack Cao Cao. But both generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou were killed by Guan Yu, and the two armies entered a stalemate. One night, Xu You intercepted the news that Cao Cao was in a food emergency, so he suggested that Yuan Shao attack Cao Cao immediately. But at this time, Yuan Shao believed Tian Feng's slander on Xu You before his death, and severely reprimanded Xu You, which led him to Cao Cao at night.
Thanks to Xu You's tip-off, Cao Cao finally got rid of the crisis of grain shortage, burned down Yuan Shao's grain depot and defeated Yuan Shao's army, which was already demoralized. The defeated Yuan Shao only withdrew to Jizhou with hundreds of cavalry, and vomited blood with anger on the way. After returning to Jizhou, he died of depression soon.
Yuan Shao's character Yuan Shao was defeated by Cao Cao, whose strength was not as good as his own, because of his character. Looking at the battle of Yuan Shao, he was defeated by Guandu repeatedly, indecisive and indecisive, which made him suffer a lot. Although I sometimes make unexpected decisions, most of the time I am stumped by my own personality shortcomings.
Yuan Shao
Yuan Shao was indecisive from the beginning, although he was resourceful. Yuan Shao often waits for him to make a decision in the face of various strategies, but he hesitates every time and finally chooses the worst one. When Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty fled hastily, Yuan Shao's giants, Tian Feng, Xu You, Guo Tu and others all expressed their ideas. In the official history, Ju Shou suggested several times that Yuan Shao should take over the Han Emperor, welcome back to Yecheng, and build the capital here to attract governors. However, Guo Tu put forward different opinions, saying that the Han Dynasty had declined, and the Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty had long been useless, but staying became a burden. Looking at the previous counselors flushed, Yuan Shao thought about it. Originally, I had to make a decision after listening to the words of the giant hand, but after listening to the words of Guo Tu, I felt right. Finally, Yuan Shao gave up welcoming Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty and lost an excellent opportunity.
Although Yuan Shao looks tall and powerful on the surface, he still has the kindness of a woman in his heart and knows that he can correct his mistakes. This can produce good governance in peacetime and win the love of the people, so the people of Jizhou have a good impression on Yuan Shao. However, in turbulent war times, women's kindness can't bring victory. At the beginning of the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao was restrained by Cao Cao, and the defeat was like a mountain. Yuan Shao is remorseful. However, when the soldiers made meritorious deeds, Yuan Shao's opponents were very stingy with their seals and rewards. Therefore, some leading soldiers in the army, such as Gao Lan and Zhang A, were not reused and finally surrendered to Cao Cao.
