Liu Xie wanted Ding Yuan to seize Hanzhong. After his troops were rested, he sent Zhang Liao's brave Northern Army and the Xiongwei Town Western Army recruited by Wei Yanxin to assist Ding Yuan in attacking Zhang Lu in Hanzhong.

Lu Bu was grateful for Ding Yuan's support and wanted to help him. Liu Xie considered his newlyweds and could not bear to arrange for him to go into battle, so Lu Bu asked for battle several times.

Liu Xie was embarrassed, and Lu Bu said: "My concubine Diao Chan advised me several times. As a minister, you should put Your Highness's great cause first. You should not only care about your family and forget your great cause. I also know this principle. Therefore, even if it is a newlywed, I hope Your Highness will allow you to go out to serve in the army!"

Liu Xie was overjoyed. He knew that Diao Chan was really right and loved Lu Bu even more. In this era, how many men could love his wives and concubines and respect them? So he agreed to Lu Bu go to Hanzhong with the army.

Zhang Lu and Ding Yuan and others fought in Shangyong and were defeated in three consecutive games. The favorite minister Yang Song killed Lu Bu with a halberd and was forced to retreat to Hanzhong, trying to defend the city to death.

General Yang Bai advised: "Although the King of Chu was young, he was said to be a genius. The people have been in a long time. Moreover, the two tiger generals under him, Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, are all invincible. In the past, the heroes, Zhang Liao and Wei Yan, fought with these two, and they are also generals. If they fight, they will be defeated. It is better to open the door and surrender!"

Zhang Lu hesitated, and the general Deng Zhi said: "Although the wolf cavalry in Bingzhou in Dingyuan is newly defeated, the Hanzhong soldiers are still difficult to compete. Now they can be surrendered. The King of Chu will treat his lord well!"

Zhang Lu had no choice but to open the city to surrender in the name of surrendering to the King of Chu.

Lu Bu and Wei Yan captured 30,000 elite troops from the 50,000 Hanzhong, and continued to advance westward to capture Dingjun Mountain.

Zhang Liao escorted Zhang Lu and others back to Jingzhou. Liu Xie then referred Zhang Lu as the Marquis of Liang and awarded precious jade and gold. He treated him quite well. Deng Zhi, Yang Ren and Yang Bai surrendered and remained under Ding Yuan's tent to guard Hanzhong.

At this time, Dong Zhuo had already grasped the government affairs and established himself as the prime minister. He became more and more arrogant and did not take the young emperor in his heart. Some minister Zhang Wen wanted to reverse the situation, but Dong Zhuo killed nine clans, and everyone was angry.

Dong Zhuo learned that Ding Yuan went south to occupy Hanzhong and wanted to raise an army to attack him. Li Rudao said: "This is absolutely not allowed. Ding Yuan actually occupied Hanzhong on behalf of King Chu and attacked Ding Yuan. The King of Chu would send Huangfu Song, Lu Bu and others to fight with the general in Nanyang."

Dong Zhuo had served Huangfu Song several times, and knew that his military strategy was excellent, so he reconsidered and led his troops to attack Bingzhou.

Li Rudao: "This is not possible. Now the King of Chu holds an army of 100,000, and is in charge of Jingzhou. Although the King of Chu is young, Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi are all famous generals in the modern era. Dingyuan has 50,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry to help him. Now there are only 100,000 Liangzhou iron cavalry in Luoyang, which is not easy to go north. Liu Bei is a man who likes gorgeous clothes and beautiful jade, and he will be greedy for the powerful. The Lord can show his reputation as the governor of Bingzhou. He will definitely thank the Lord for his kindness and will be rewarded."

Dong Zhuo wanted to take the opportunity to win over Liu Bei again, so he made him the governor of Bingzhou in the name of Shao Emperor.

At that time, Guan Hai, Zhang Baiqi, He Man and He Yi led more than tens of thousands of Yellow Turban bandits in Qingzhou. Because he had no food to attack Beihai, the prefect of Beihai Kong Rong ordered Gongcao Sun Shao and Liu Bei to ask for help. Although Liu Bei had many soldiers, he also brought Guan Yu. Zhang Fei led three thousand troops to rescue him.

Sun Shao-Simplified Historical Biography

Sun Shao was formerly Gongcao, the prefect of Beihai. He was praised by Kong Rong as a talent who could serve as an important position in the court. Later, he followed Liu Yao to Jiangdong and then assisted Sun Quan. Sun Quan was called the Queen of Wu, and Sun Shao became the first prime minister of Wu and died of illness a few years later.

A hero Taishi Ci rewarded Kong Rong for his kindness to treat his mother well. He killed the thief into the city alone, and then went out of the city to ask for help from the governor of Xuzhou Tao Qian.

Tao Qian ordered the general Mi Fang to come with 5,000 troops and merge with Liu Bei to defeat the bandits. Guan Yu and Guan Hai fought for thirty rounds and knocked him down, and all the Yellow Turbans were surrendered to 3,000.

Seeing Guan Hai's bravery, Liu Bei treated him very kindly, and said, "General Guan was powerful and did not serve as a bandit or a robber for the Han Dynasty and disturb the people. However, they were all from poverty. Bei was newly appointed as the governor of Bingzhou by the emperor. He was short of generals. Generals could follow me to Bingzhou to achieve military achievements and not be a fool."

When Guan Hai saw his sincerity, he surrendered to him and led Zhang Baiqi, He Man and He Yi to join the Yellow Turban bandits.

The four of them were the enemy for a long time, and there were many gold and silver in the village, and they were given to Liu Bei. Liu Bei said that this was the wealth of the people and should be paid back to the people and distributed the money to the people everywhere.

When Taishi Ci saw that the bandits had already been in trouble, she wanted to submit to Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou, with his fellow townsman. When Liu Bei saw his bravery, benevolence and righteousness, he made a promise and expressed his loyalty to him as the governor of Bingzhou. Taishi Ci was also happy to serve his life when he saw his benevolence and virtue.

Kong Rong knew that Liu Bei wanted to be promoted to the governor of Bingzhou, and congratulated Liu Bei, and recommended Sun Shao to Liu Bei and said, "Sun Shao is a great talent. He lives in Beihai for a waste. The public can treat him well and will be able to clarify government affairs for justice."

Liu Bei was overjoyed and treated Sun Shao well, and was communicating with his brothers. Seeing that he was kind, Sun Shao recommended Sun Gan, Sun Gan recommended Che Zhou and Wu'anguo.

At that time, Che Zhou was a wealthy family in Xia Pi. When he saw Liu Bei treating others with kindness, he had great ambitions, and spent all his family wealth and recruited 6,000 soldiers to follow him.

Although Mi Fang was the son of the Mi family, a wealthy family in Xuzhou, his brother Mi Zhu was a great merchant, but he was still not worthy of it in Xuzhou. He also had a scourge with Xuzhou general Cao Bao, and wanted to join Liu Bei, but he was afraid that he would not accept it. So he revealed to his brother that Liu Bei was a great talent and had ambitions for the whole world. Mi Zhu was happy and added Liu Bei's daughter to send food and grass again.

Mi Fang continued to write a letter to Tao Qian: Liu Bei was a relative of the Han Dynasty and was kind and loving the people. He now went to Bingzhou to serve as the governor, and he was willing to lead his troops to escort the troops along the way. Without Tao Qian's approval, he defected to Liu Bei. Liu Bei knew that his clan was a wealthy family and also took him away, so he led his troops to Bingzhou.

After Ding Yuan was defeated by Dong Zhuo, Bingzhou was in chaos, and Liu Bei led 20,000 troops to Huguan.

Guo Zhun, the general of Huguan, knew that Liu Bei was benevolent and righteous, and Guang had military achievements, so he did not dare to be an enemy. He surrendered to Liu Bei and became the vanguard of Liu Bei's army, and persuaded Ding Yuan to stay in Jinyang to rule Zhong Jian Yong.

Liu Bei had a long talk with Jian Yong. Seeing that he was quite talented, he was very happy and stayed at his original position. Later, Chen Gong, the magistrate of Chen Liu, abandoned Cao Cao and surrendered to him. Seeing that Chen Gong had a very accurate strategy and excellent knowledge, he was elegant and elegant, he allowed him to be a different person. He discussed everything with him, and often slept with Chen Gong and talked all night.

Liu Bei was in Bingzhou for only a few months and entrusted Sun Shao with government affairs. He took Chen Gong to various counties in Bingzhou to search for famous scholars, stayed in the countryside, and was very harmonious with the rich and civilians in Bingzhou.

In Jingzhou, after the emergence of the Autonomous Territory, the Jiuqings of Zhiluo have become the real masters of Jingzhou's power. The current Jiuqings of Zhiluotai are mainly officials following Liu Xie to the south, and the students represented by the Xun family and the Chen family were supplemented by Yingchuan students. The local wealthy family in Jingzhou was only Kuai Liang.
