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

The time came to 201, and one year had passed since the end of the Battle of Guandu.

Xu Wenhao was spending a leisurely day at home with his wife and daughter, when an urgent report was delivered to him.

After opening it, Xu Wenhao was speechless and could only call Xun Yu to discuss it together.

"General, why are you so anxious?"

At this time, Xun Yu also thought that something big had happened somewhere, so Xu Wenhao suddenly called him over.

"See for yourself."

Xu Wenhao also shook his head and handed the battle report to Xun Yu.

It turned out that the urgent report stated that after Xu Chu heard about the deeds of several generals under Xu Wenhao in the Western Regions Chief Secretary's Office, he was unwilling to be outdone, so he sent envoys to persuade the countries in the Western Regions to surrender.

In fact, there were many such envoys on missions in the Han Dynasty, and some even caused many strange things.

The number one diplomat of the Western Han Dynasty was of course Zhang Qian. Zhang Qian was captured by the Huns before he had gone far on his mission to the Western Regions and was forced to marry a Hun girl.

For the sake of his diplomatic career, Zhang Qian had to endure humiliation and persuade (sleep with) a Xiongnu girl to help him escape.

There were also envoys who went out to persuade people to submit to the Han Dynasty. If they refused, he would promise to die. The envoys often pointed at the kings' noses and cursed them, and even slept with their concubines.

The king was angry, but because the envoy had a strong man behind him, the king was still a little timid. However, the envoy provoked him, "Kill me, kill me if you dare!" As a result, the king killed the envoy in anger. Later, Emperor Wu of Han used this as an excuse to send troops to destroy the country.

In order to strengthen relations with the Kingdom of Nanyue, Emperor Wu of Han sent envoys to communicate. However, the envoy and the Queen Mother of Nanyue were previously lovers. The envoy was called An Guo Shao Ji.

After this man went there, he had sex with the woman and also persuaded the Queen Mother to let the Kingdom of Nanyue submit to the Han Dynasty. The Queen Mother actually agreed, so she did ideological work on her son and the ministers.

The demise of the Kingdom of Loulan also followed the same process. First, an envoy went on a visit. The envoy cursed the heavens and the earth, which angered the King of Loulan, who killed the Han envoy.

Upon hearing that the envoy had died, the officials of the Han Dynasty thought that their opportunity had come. Fu Jiezi, a minor official in the Junma Supervisor, volunteered to be an envoy to Dayuan.

After he went there, the King of Loulan apologized, but he felt no sense of accomplishment, and said, "The King of Loulan is fickle and should be destroyed!" Emperor Zhao of Han agreed, and Fu Jiezi led his troops to destroy the Kingdom of Loulan. After returning, Fu Jiezi was named Marquis of Yi Yang.

In short, Xu Chu learned about the news after he arrived in the Western Regions. In addition, when the battle situation of several former friends spread to the Western Regions, Xu Chu could no longer sit still.

It just so happened that Huangfu Song felt that the situation in the Central Plains was now clear, and he wanted to secure a future for his wife and children, so he let Xu Chu stay in the Chief Secretary's Mansion, while he went to dance at the tombs of the countries in the Western Regions.

Although he did not die, he was chased and killed several times. In the end, Xu Chu would lead his troops to attack every time something happened.

Therefore, during these three years, the countries in the Western Regions were either destroyed or surrendered. Only at this time did Xu Chu happily hand in the battle report.

To put it bluntly, Xu Chu dared to fight because he thought Xu Wenhao had won more games. In addition, he had said at the beginning that he would take advantage of the situation, which meant that when he had the advantage, he would attack him head-on. Of course, he had to fight.

In fact, the more Xu Chu fought, the more troops he had. In the end, he even said that he would arrange for all countries to send so-called princes and other hostages and beauties to Xu Wenhao in Luoyang.

“This, this…”

After seeing the battle report, Xun Yu didn't know what to say.

You have to know that a few years after the Eastern Han Dynasty, foreign tribes had long forgotten the majesty of the Han Dynasty. As a result, Xu Wenhao sent troops to fight back in the past 10 years.

In the blink of an eye, 10 years had passed, and Xu Wenhao had already defeated all the foreign tribes that the Han Dynasty had conquered. This left Xun Yu speechless.

"Xun Yu, I'll trouble you to report this good news to His Majesty and the ministers."

Xu Wenhao also waved his hand, indicating that Xun Yu could pass on the news.

"Here!"

After hearing this, Xun Yu also bowed obediently, this time very respectful.

To put it bluntly, if Xu Wenhao plays like this, it will naturally be Zhongyuan's turn next, which also means that the overall situation has been decided.

But at least they have regained the dignity that the Han Dynasty lost. There is no reason for him to keep pursuing the so-called orthodoxy. That would be really stupid.

One month later, when the news from the Western Regions reached the Central Plains, Cao Cao, who was in the final stage of attacking Yuan Shao, suddenly felt that the string in his heart was broken.

"It's over. Our time is gone so quickly."

Cao Cao looked towards Luoyang from outside Yecheng in a trance, feeling very confused.

"My lord, there is still a chance!"

"Don't forget, he, Lu Fengxian, is not liked by the noble families."

"We only need to contact the noble families in Jingzhou, and Jingzhou will become our ally!"

Guo Jia knew that they couldn't panic at this time, so he quickly persuaded Cao Cao to cheer up.

"That's right. Write a letter to persuade Jingzhou to surrender. We can use the Central Plains to resist Lu Bu's offensive!"

Cao Cao did come to his senses.

Now that he has become the spokesperson for the aristocratic family in the Central Plains, he does feel that he has the strength to fight.

The main reason is that there are few people outside the Great Wall. Even if there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, the Central Plains can replenish them in a very short time. It’s just that the combat effectiveness is relatively poor.

This was actually because Xu Wenhao had not used troops in the Central Plains for many years, which gave Cao Cao an illusion. In fact...

"General, Cao Cao has indeed accelerated his offensive pace, and at the same time, his contacts with the major families in Jingzhou have also accelerated."

Xun Yu also got the warning, so he came over to discuss it with Xu Wenhao.

In fact, Xu Wenhao and Xun Yu had already anticipated Cao Cao's changes. They were just two different changes that affected the subsequent deployment.

"It doesn't matter. It's time for the troops from Bingzhou and Sili to practice."

"At the same time, the navy has already formed a 10-man navy. It all depends on what Sun Jian of the Eastern Wu thinks."

Xu Wenhao was indeed quite calm.

His weapons and armor are several times more than those of others. When fighting in the Central Plains, his cavalry will have a great advantage, so he can use all his heavy weapons and armor.

Compare horses?

He owned the vast grassland outside the Great Wall and the space ring. If he exchanged it for 20 heavy cavalry, he could sweep across the plains and Cao Cao could only hold on.

But he still has navy, led by Gan Ning and Taishi Ci who are so powerful. Cao Cao has no navy, so how can he defeat him relying on the navy of Jingzhou?

Following Xu Wenhao's decision, the troops of Bingzhou and Sili also quickly took action.

The first to appear was Hanoi, where 2 soldiers and 3 cavalry led by Gao Shun headed towards Yecheng.

As for Zhao Yun, he led 10 cavalrymen from Bingzhou and infantrymen from outside the Great Wall. More than half of these cavalrymen were from foreign ethnic groups.

In order to ensure the lives of their families inside the Great Wall, they naturally had to perform well in this battle.

At this time, there were actually not many troops in Youzhou and other places. The main reason was that after Yuan Shao fell ill, his sons turned against each other and each occupied a place and ignored each other.

Xu Wenhao naturally would not waste time, but chose to attack from multiple directions to cut off Cao Cao's advance into Yizhou.
