Historical decryption Why did Gongsun Chan form an alliance with Yuan Shu, but broke with Yuan Shao

Mondo History Updated on 2024-02-06

Under the threat of Gongsun Zhan, why did Han Fu choose to ally with Yuan Shao? The reason for the incident was that in order to force Han Fu to hand over power, Yuan Shao secretly delivered a letter to Gongsun Zhan, suggesting that they join forces.

After receiving the letter, Gongsun Zhan immediately led his army south, and claimed that it was to crusade against Dong Zhuo, but in fact he secretly planned to attack Han Fu. In addition, Han Fu's general Lu Yi also rebelled at this time, and it was unfavorable to fight with Han Fu.

In order to weaken Han Fu's strength, Yuan Shao also threw an olive branch to Liyi and formed an alliance with him.

Although Yuan Shao and Koyi were ostensibly allied, in fact, Koyi was a semi-independent small warlord, and there were contradictions and conflicts with Yuan Shao, which also laid the groundwork for their subsequent struggle.

At this time, Han Fu was in a difficult situation both internally and externally and facing tremendous pressure.

Han Fu's fellow countryman, Xun Chen, a native of Yingchuan, came to persuade him to surrender, and Yuan Shao took the opportunity to hint to Han Fu that the Yuan family has a large number of talents and will replace Han Fu's position in the near future; Gongsun Chan holds the swallow and the soldiers in his hand, and he is unstoppable.

Jizhou is a strategic place in the world, and if the two armies join forces, it will pose a huge threat to Han Fu. At the same time, Yuan Shao is Han Fu's old department, and the two have a close relationship, if Jizhou can be ceded to Yuan Shao, Han Fu will definitely be able to get Yuan Shao's gratitude.

Therefore, Han Fu finally agreed to Xun Chen's strategy and ceded Jizhou to Yuan Shao. And another task of Yuan Shao's southward movement was to help stop the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army.

When Yuan Shao wrote to Gongsun Zhan for help, the 300,000 Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army had already begun to attack the Bohai Sea and form a joint force with the Montenegrin Army.

In 191, Gongsun Chan led 20,000 cavalry to defeat the Qingzhou army and beheaded more than 30,000 people.

After Gongsun Chan defeated the Qingzhou army, his strength was greatly improved. His ambitions also increased, and he began to set his sights on the powerful Jizhou. However, before breaking with Yuan Shao, he also had a honeymoon period with Yuan Shu.

Here's the thing: After Dong Zhuo's death, Chang'an was in turmoil, and Emperor Xian planned to return to Luoyang in the east, and sent Liu Yu's son Liu He to escape from Chang'an, go out of Wuguan to find Liu Yu, and let him lead his troops to meet him.

Liu He passed by Yuan Shu's station and informed Yuan Shu of the matter. Yuan Shu detained Liu He, coerced him to write a letter to Liu Yu, and led his troops to come to Yuan's postoperative support. Yu De and the book, is to send thousands of horses and horses.

Most of the Youzhou army was in the hands of Gongsun Zhan, and thousands of cavalry were also a strong force at that time.

What's more, when this army arrives at Yuan Shu, it is very likely that it will be annexed by Yuan Shu, and Gongsun Chan refused to send troops. But later, Gongsun Chan sent his cousin Gongsun Yue to lead more than 1,000 cavalry to Yuan Shu to make peace with him.

This is because of two reasons: one is that Yuan Shu holds the strongest sharp knife in the late Eastern Han Dynasty - Sun Jian, and Gongsun Zan does not want to offend Yuan Shu; The second is that Gongsun Zan is already preparing to plot Jizhou, and he wants to join Yuan Shu to attack Yuan Shao together.

Since the Kanto army against Dong, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have been **! When Yuan Shu sent Sun Jian to attack Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao actually sent Zhou Yu to assassinate the history of Yuzhou and attack the base that had been used as Sun Jian.

After Yuan Shu received the aid of Gongsun Yue, he ordered him to help Sun Jian attack Zhou Ang, and in one battle, Gongsun Yue was shot by a stray arrow and died. Gongsun Zan was furious: "Brother Yu died, and the disaster came from Shao." ”

Finally got the opportunity to send troops, and Gongsun Zhan stationed his army in Panhe, preparing to take revenge on Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao, who had just taken Jizhou, was still integrating internal forces, so he had to give up his position as the Taishou of the Bohai Sea to Gongsun Fan, a cousin of Gongsun Zhan, in order to reconcile with him.

But a Bohai County can no longer satisfy Gongsun Zhan's appetite, he wants the whole of Jizhou. As soon as Gongsun Fan arrived in Bohai, he betrayed Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zan then stationed in Jieqiao, appointing Yan Gang as Jizhou Mu, Tian Kai as Qingzhou Mu, Shan Jing as Yanzhou Mu, and even the following county guards were appointed at will.

In the face of the strongman who strongly defeated the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, the hearts of the entire Hebei people fell to Gongsun Zhan. The governor of Ji all responded to the wind. Among these chiefs, Liu Bei is included.

In troubled times, if you want to protect yourself, you can only hug the thickest thigh! Liu Bei defected to the old senior Gongsun Zan and served as the Sima of other departments. Gongsun Zan then arranged for Liu Bei and the newly appointed Qingzhou Thorn Shi Tian Kai to seize Qingzhou.

Uncle Huang finally became the prince of a county, and was able to compete for the world as a prince!

He was no longer satisfied with the throne of Youzhou, and he was eager to compete with Yuan Shao and show who was the true ruler of Hebei.
