Among the many local governors of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, Ding Yuan's military force should be able to be counted.It's just that because he has an adopted son, Lu Bu, who has a high-ranking force in combat, his martial arts are habitually ignored by others in comparison with Lu Bu.

However, who can leave the three words "courageous" in the history books, how can they be ordinary generals?

Ding Yuan's martial arts are very powerful, but relatively speaking, his Wenzhi, especially the royal family, is very poor.

He is most famous for his death by his adopted son, Lu Bu, whom he regarded as a confidant.The adopted father and son of Ding Jianyang and Lu Fengxian have also been repeatedly mentioned by later generations.Most people's evaluation is that Ding Yuan is a loyal and patriotic person, but he can't distinguish Lu Bu's wolf ambitions, so it led to the final result.

However, in Lin Tianyao's view, Lu Bu's betrayal of Ding Yuan was not an accident.Although Lu Bu is greedy, he is not a brainless person.He knew very well what kind of infamy he would suffer if he betrayed Ding Yuan, but he did it without hesitation.This shows what?

Lu Bu was not happy under Dingyuan's hands.This is reflected in both "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Records of the Three Kingdoms".As the prefect of a state, although Ding Yuan prefers martial arts, it is impossible to completely abandon Wenzhi.Moreover, the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty was an era when local cliques dominated politics. Ding Yuan’s background did not give him much help. On the one hand, he came to this stage because of his personal courage and talent, and on the other hand, it was because of his closeness. and hugged the aristocratic family.

The aristocratic clan headed by Zhang Yang, the prefect of the above party, once controlled Bingzhou for a long time, but under Ding Yuan's intention of cracking down and promoting new people, Lu Bu rose as the leader of the military commander faction, and quickly gained a firm foothold in the army by relying on his personal martial arts. , there is still a little bit to overwhelm Zhang Yang's tendency to become the first person under Ding Yuan's rule.

It's just that Zhang Yang is not easy to provoke, and Ding Yuan, who was originally Lu Bu's biggest backstage, didn't want to see the size of Lu Bu's family, so he also began to attack Lu Bu.Of course, all of this is unspeakable on the surface, and it is all happening in the dark.

As a chief, what you have to do is to use the contradictions between the officials below to maintain your rule.After all, factionalism is always going to be there, and a wise chief doesn't demand monolithic internals, but control.

Ding Yuan was quite successful in balancing the political situation in Bingzhou, but his actions also laid the foundation for his future outcome.

Lu Bu is not subordinate to others, and he is not a fool. When his wings are gradually full, how could he dare to subdue to Ding Yuan?It's just because the Shangdang Prefect Zhang Yang acts as a check on the outside, and there are many people under him who are still loyal to Ding Yuan.Therefore, he was able to tolerate Ding Yuan to continue to be his "foster father".

It's not that Ding Yuan didn't notice all this, but he didn't care.Therefore, when Dong Zhuo found Lu Bu, Ding Yuan's death was already doomed.

With Dong Zhuo's support, what is Zhang Yang, the prefect of Shangdang?If the subordinates are unconvinced, kill them all!

What Lu Bu was waiting for was just an opportunity, an opportunity to leave Dingyuan.And that time is not far away.

Having said that, there is an inherent contradiction between the faction of military commanders represented by Lu Bu and the civil officials represented by Zhang Yang, namely the local aristocratic families.Although Lu Bu was not present, the generals present were almost one-sided to persuade Ding Yuan according to his plan.Zhang Yang, the prefect of Shangdang, was not a fool, and he naturally understood the other party's intentions, so he immediately jumped out to fight back.

For so many years, their native aristocratic family has been hit hard by Ding Yuan, and even Zhang Yang, the representative of the aristocratic family, has been crushed by Lu Bu.The root cause is that in such a chaotic world, there is a lack of excellent generals on the side of the aristocratic family.As for the army?

The aristocratic family has money and food, and in such a chaotic world, it is too easy for the aristocratic family to develop an army.All they lack is a general to lead the army.The appearance of Lin Tianyao and Zhang Liao undoubtedly gave them a goal.

Lin Tianyao was a general who could subdue the tigers. Although Zhang Liao was young, he was also skilled in bowing and horses. With time, he might become a famous general.These two people will have a huge impact on the future situation of Bingzhou, so they must fight for it no matter what.

Ding Yuan couldn't help pondering after hearing what Song Xian and Shangdang Prefect Zhang Yang said.He is the prefect of a state, and he has always been aware of the fact that the subordinate officials and military generals are incompatible, and he is even the leader behind it.But now, around Lin Tianyao and Zhang Liao, civil officials and military generals have once again launched a confrontation.

He must carefully consider what he said, and he must strive to maintain a balance between the two. No matter which side is suppressed, it is extremely unfavorable for his rule.And he has only now realized the weight of Lin Tianyao and Zhang Liao in the eyes of the two parties.

He also understood the thoughts on the general's side.Lu Bu would not allow such an excellent general to grow up and threaten his status. He may not necessarily attack Zhang Liao and Lin Tianyao, but there are other ways to prevent them from being dead and unable to become generals for life.And the civil service group may have obtained the exact information of Lin Tianyao long before themselves, and they want to bring him under their command.

Although Zhang Liao is still young, he has also shown his potential.Not to mention that his family Zhang family is a big family with deep roots in Mayi.Therefore, his value is also very great. At this moment, Lin Tianyao and Zhang Liao will not realize that the two of them, on the side of the Bingzhou civil officials, are just like a fragrant pastry, and they are bound to win.And for the same reason, the military commander would not allow such two people to fall into the civilian group.

If you can't get it, you will be destroyed, and in the army, no matter how strong a person is, there is a way to make him disappear.

Chapter 3114 Cavalry General (Part [-])

This is not the first confrontation between the two major forces under Ding Yuan's command, but this time, it has a more special meaning.Because this time, it coincides with the Yellow Turban Rebellion!

Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion has not spread to Bingzhou yet, but who knows if the Yellow Turban Rebellion will eventually spread to Bingzhou?Moreover, even if it didn't reach Bingzhou, the imperial court ordered it on paper, and the Bingzhou warlord would definitely be dispatched.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was both a great turmoil and a great opportunity.If you can seize the opportunity in such an opportunity, then it is not impossible to achieve success and enter the central government of the Han Dynasty.A mere Bingzhou is just a springboard, and their eyes are on the thirteen states in the world.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion has made the local warlords see clearly the corruption of the Han Dynasty and the collapse of the military mobilization mechanism. The Han army that once dominated the world has lost its prestige and prestige, and people with vision have already seen the general trend of the world.The warlords of Bingzhou are naturally unwilling to be at the back.

It's just that Ding Yuan didn't know these thoughts.His ability, in the era of peace, was enough to govern a large state, but in such a chaotic world, it is no longer enough.Even Liu Yu, the last capable minister at the end of the Han Dynasty, could not save the Han Dynasty that had decayed to the core, let alone Ding Yuan?

The question now facing Ding Yuan is how to balance the struggle between the two groups of officials and generals.And Lin Tianyao and Zhang Liao are their bargaining chips.Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the future of these two people must be extremely extraordinary.If it can be tied to one's own chariot group, it must be a good thing.If you can't, then you can't let the other party get it!

"Others, what do you think?" Ding Yuan was not in a hurry to make a decision. He wanted to see how much the military generals and civil officials under his sect had analyzed on this matter.

Hou Cheng, Cao Xing, and Wei Xu stood up respectively. They supported Song Xian's request with their actions. The generals supported Song Xian almost overwhelmingly, which made Ding Yuan's brows wrinkle even more.On the other hand, on the side of the civil servants, only one Mu Shun stood up and supported Zhang Yang, the prefect of Shangdang.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Ding Yuan immediately understood that this time, the Civil Service Group had failed again.But, do you really want to let Lin Tianyao and Zhang Liao join the military commander group?

Ding Yuan knew what the consequences of doing so were, so he didn't make a rash decision.At this time, he suddenly noticed that there was another person on the side of the general who didn't speak, and at this moment, that person looked at him as if he wanted to say something, but he was a little shy.

"General Gao, if you have any opinion on this matter, why don't you stand up and talk."

On the general's side, a middle-aged man stood up. Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Cao Xing, and Wei Xu watched him stand up, and their brows could not help but frown.

This person is not liked by them. Although he is also a military commander, he is not of one mind with them.On the other hand, the civil official watched the man stand up, but he did not show any relaxed expression.Because this person is also not of one mind with them.

This person's name is Gao Shun, he doesn't belong to any faction, if it weren't for his superhuman training ability, such a person would not be able to gain a firm foothold in the officialdom of Bingzhou.Everyone, including Ding Yuan, knew that this person was only loyal to Ding Yuan, but his position was far from matching his talents.

"Reporting to the Chief Inspector, the last general thinks that it would be a pity if talents like Lin Tianyao and Zhang Wenyuan were just guarding one side."

As soon as he said these words, the civilian group changed its color, while the military general's expression softened a little.

Ding Yuan was obviously dissatisfied with this answer, but he knew that Gao Shun should have something to say, so he opened his mouth and said: "Then according to your opinion, this official should send two people out to fight the Yellow Turban thieves. ?"

"That's the truth. The battlefield is the best place for generals to train. Besides, the Yellow Turbans are causing chaos in the world. If I did not do anything to suppress it, it would be a bit unreasonable. The court has issued a list, and each state and county has been asked to recruit village braves to guard the Yellow Turbans. Lord Inspector. Why don't we just use these two to go to conquer the Yellow Turbans?"

As soon as Gao Shun finished saying these words, the entire hall was instantly quiet, and a strange atmosphere flowed at this moment.

Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Cao Xing, and Wei Xu glanced at each other with a little sneer in their eyes.Most of the troops and horses in Bingzhou are now under their control. If there are no troops and horses, the so-called conquest of the Yellow Turban thieves is just a joke.How can the temporarily recruited Xiangyong be compared with the Han army! ?

On the side of the civil servants, Zhang Yang, the prefect of Shangdang, heard these words and took a deep look at Gao Shun.He did have a plan to take advantage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion to enter the central government, but this matter has to be discussed in the long run. Today, Gao Shun brought it up so rashly, I'm afraid...

He shook his head imperceptibly, and made a decision in his heart that he would not intervene in this matter.

Neither the generals nor the civil servants spoke. However, to their surprise, Ding Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this suggestion.

"Gao Shun's words are reasonable, and do as you say! Order Lin Tianyao as the forward general, Zhang Liao as the partial general, Gao Shun as the main general, and go to conquer the Yellow Turban thieves"

Gao Shun was taken aback. He didn't expect that Ding Yuan agreed to his proposal so smoothly, but he quickly responded: "However, where can I get food and grass for soldiers and horses?"

"I will give you food and grass naturally, as for the soldiers and horses..." Ding Yuan thought for a while, then his eyes lit up, and he said, "Except for the fact that you are in the camp, this officer has authorized you to recruit your own troops and crusade. The yellow turban is a big thing, don't get tired of it! If something goes wrong, this official will definitely not forgive you!" Gao Shun was about to nod his head in agreement, but just caught a glimpse of his colleague's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel cold for a while.
