Becoming a father in the film and television industry: starting with Xu Huanshan

The news of the Huns' great victory naturally spread not only to Luoyang, but also to all parts of the Central Plains where people had been waiting for the result.

After all, Zhao Yun's tens of thousands of cavalrymen are veterans of hundreds of battles. If they were pulled inside the pass, they would be extremely powerful.

Now that Xu Wenhao no longer had to worry about the people outside the Great Wall, he had enough troops to deal with the people inside the Great Wall.

The princes within the pass did not just stand by and watch for more than a year. Cao Cao also directly arranged for Xiahou Jun to lead 3 elite troops to Xiaopei to take over Liu Bei's troops.

Under Guo Jia's strategy, Yuan Shu was quickly driven back to Shouchun, Nanyang, and the rest of the places had been taken over by Cao Cao.

In Lujiang, Cao Cao wrote a letter to Sun Jian, hoping that the two would not fight each other because of their previous friendship and that they should divide Jingzhou first and then make a decision.

Sun Jian was naturally happy about this. After all, most of Jingzhou was water, which gave him an advantage. At the same time, he didn't have to worry too much about attacks from Cao Cao.

By the time the results of the Xiongnu's defeat came out, Yuan Shu had just perished.

The main reason was that he could not wait for Yuan Shao's support, and he did many ridiculous things out of despair. There were not many soldiers willing to die for him.

After Cao Cao captured Shouchun, it meant that he had control over almost three and a half states, and his strength instantly jumped to the top among the princes, making Yuan Shao so angry that he gritted his teeth.

But what else could he do? He also had to guard against Xu Wenhao, and he had just taken over Youzhou, so he had to digest it.

If he hadn't fooled Yuan Shu, Cao Cao might have attacked him by now.

Fortunately, Yuan Shao also had some psychological comfort, that is, Liu Bei had surrendered to him.

That's right! After all the troops were taken over in Xiaopei, Liu Bei did not go back to help Cao Cao this time, but planned to join Yuan Shao.

Fortunately, Cao Cao knew that what he did this time was somewhat unfair to Liu Bei, who worked so hard as a slave, so he approved his resignation and returned his family to him.

Liu Bei became more and more angry the more he thought about it, so he was unwilling to retreat like this, and thus joined Yuan Shao's camp.

The main reason is that Yuan Shao doesn’t have many people available, so at least he still has a chance to stand out.

When he and Cao Cao start to fight, he, the fisherman, will come out to benefit.

Not long after the battle of Hanzhong, good news came. The main reason was that Zhang Lu discovered that this young man named Ma Chao was quite fierce, and two of his generals were killed in just two rounds.

As for the battle to defend the city, the enemy was not in a hurry at all. Relying on the supplies from Chang'an, Ma Chao attacked Hanzhong for a full half a year.

They have been relying on siege weapons from the Three Kingdoms era, such as catapults, to suppress morale, which was also what Xu Wenhao had instructed.

The main reason was that Zhang Lu would have surrendered anyway, so there was no reason for him not to give him a chance.

At the same time, he also didn't want too many of his soldiers to die, so he told Ma Chao that you can fight if you want, but if too many soldiers died, you will have no chance to be the commander-in-chief.

It was under this order that Ma Chao adopted Pang De's advice and used catapults to bombard the city.

After half a year, even if Zhang Lu was confident in defending the city, the morale of the troops in the city had collapsed.

So after learning the news that Zhao Yun had recaptured the Huns outside the Great Wall, he also wrote a letter and asked Ma Chao to give it to Xu Wenhao.

The letter naturally expressed unconditional surrender and only asked for exemption from death.

"General, this Zhang Lu is a smart man."

Xun Yu also went to Xu Wenhao to discuss the resettlement of the Huns that day, and happened to see Zhang Lu's letter of surrender.

"Yeah, having no desires or requests would make people feel even more embarrassed."

"It's not hard to understand when you consider that he started out as a member of the Five Pecks of Rice Sect."

Xu Wenhao also knew why Zhang Lu didn't speak, but this made him seem more presentable.

They have already surrendered and haven't made any demands. How can you not give them anything?

"Give him a fifth-rank hereditary sinecure, let him retire in Luoyang, and give him a house."

Xu Wenhao thought about it and finally chose this arrangement.

Don’t think that he doesn’t want this official position. In fact, Zhang Lu must have some hidden money.

With this official position and a big house in Luoyang, his life is not much worse than that of the head of a city.

As for what Liu Bian thinks, there is no need for Xu Wenhao to say more.

Xun Yu didn't find it strange when he saw Xu Wenhao making decisions for Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Bian.

The main thing is that he is not stupid. He knows that Xu Wenhao’s recent dispatch of troops to Hanzhong and Yizhou is actually to intimidate all officials.

Even if someone wants to make some small moves, how could he, as the prime minister who is the head of the Three Dukes, not be unaware of it?

"Here!"

Xun Yu knew that Xu Wenhao did not want to go to court for fear of angering the civil officials and Emperor Xian of Han.

Every time he went to court, everyone else was very cautious, which really was boring.

The main reason is that people's thinking nowadays is still based on the ancient times, and they believe that the emperor is the greatest. Even in the original novel, when Cao Cao wanted to be crowned king, he had to test and reminisce about the past.

As a great general with great power in the court, the purpose of attending court was aroused endless imagination among the ministers. In the end, Xu Wenhao simply stopped attending court unless necessary.

Anyway, the high-level civil servants are all his people, and the middle-level ones are monitored by his intelligence organization. As long as they do their work honestly, being a little greedy will not have any impact on him.

Anyway, we can just fatten them up and kill them later. The situation in Luoyang is not such that they can be so greedy.

In this way, Hanzhong was successfully captured after Ma Chao led his army to attack for half a year.

But this is just the beginning, only then will the real strategy begin.

As soon as the battle with the Huns ended, it meant that Xu Wenhao could withdraw enough troops to attack Yizhou.

After Ma Chao took over the remnants left by Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, he quickly prepared himself.

Luoyang also arranged for Zhong Yao to take over the affairs of Hanzhong, mainly to ensure logistics and prepare for Ma Chao's subsequent march into Yizhou.

Speaking of Zhong Yao, there is also a very interesting thing about him.

That means he is Zhong Hui’s father, but that doesn’t seem to be a big deal, right?

Zhong Yao (151-230), courtesy name Yuanchang, was a native of Changsha County, Yingchuan Commandery, Yuzhou (now Changge City, Henan Province). He was an important official of the Cao Wei Dynasty from the late Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period, and a calligrapher.

Zhong Yao was born into the Zhong family of Yingchuan during the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was selected as a filial and honest official and served as Shangshu Lang and Huangmen Shilang. He assisted Emperor Xian of Han in returning to Luoyang and was granted the title of Marquis of Dongwu Ting.

Later, he gained the trust of the powerful Prime Minister Cao Cao, and was appointed as the Inspector of the Sili Army, stationed in Guanzhong. He made outstanding contributions and was compared to Xiao He. He was promoted to the position of former military advisor.

When Cao Cao was granted the title of King of Wei, he served as the Minister of Justice and Prime Minister of Wei. After the establishment of Cao Wei, he was appointed Minister of Justice and later promoted to Grand Commandant, ranking first among the Three Dukes.

During the reign of Emperor Ming of Wei, he was promoted to Taifu and was granted the title of Marquis of Dingling County and was known as "Taifu Zhong".

In the fourth year of Taihe (230 AD), Zhong Yao died and was posthumously named "Cheng". In the fourth year of Zhengshi (243 AD), he was enshrined in the temple of Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei.

Well, 151 to 230 years, that’s considered a very long life.

Zhong Hui was born into the aristocratic family of Yingchuan Zhong. He was the youngest son of Grand Tutor Zhong Yao, but his birth age was between 225 and 264. In other words, he was actually the youngest son born to Zhong Yao in 225 at the age of 74. . .

At present, more than half of Yingchuan's talented people have been won over by Xu Wenhao, but a small number of them have gone to Cao Cao, which can be regarded as contributing to his career.

In fact, this is just the long-term bets made by the noble families behind these people, just to see who can truly control the world.

Even Zhuge Liang's family had members working for every force in the Three Kingdoms period. No matter who succeeded, at least there would be a lineage left.
