"Are you Guanqiu Jian?"
When Yang Ling heard that Guan Qiu Jian introduced himself to his family, Yang Ling's heart moved and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
Although the morale of the later Three Kingdoms, famous ministers and generals have withered away, it seems a bit dim.
But there are still many geniuses like Deng Ai and Jiang Wei who emerged from nowhere!
Among them, Guan Qiujian's figure is naturally indispensable!
Historically, when Cao Pi ascended the throne as empress, he was selected as the literary advisor to his eldest son Cao Rui. Guan Qiu Jian, together with a group of other famous teachers and retainers, was responsible for the prince's study and cultivation of virtue, and supported each other.
After Cao Rui succeeded to the throne, Guanqiu Jian, who was good friends with him, rose to prominence, and then he was ordered to attack Liaodong Gongsun Yuan!
The first Northern Expedition to Liaodong was due to God's disfavor, and the Liaodong Army was in the right place at the right time.
Guanqiu Jian fought hard with Liaodong County, and finally withdrew his army and returned to Peiping because of Cao Rui's order.
After the rest was completed and Sima Yi's reinforcements arrived, Guanqiu Jian joined forces with him to conquer Liaodong for the second time.
This time, Guanqiu Jian and Sima Yi completely pacified Liaodong!
After taking Liaodong, due to frequent wars, there was a power vacuum in the Youzhou area!
Goguryeo and other small border countries began to invade the borders and encroach on Wei's land.
At this critical moment, Guanqiu Jian organized more than ten thousand troops to attack Goguryeo.
The throne palace of the King of Goguryeo overestimated its capabilities and tried to use 20,000 troops to resist Guanqiu Jian!
Although the enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered, and there was a huge disparity in strength, Guanqiu Jian defeated the strong with the weak, and defeated the Goguryeo army twice, almost wiping out the entire enemy army!
Therefore, the King of Goguryeo led his wife to flee the capital and took refuge in Dongwoju!
Guanqiu Jian did not pursue them, but captured Wandu Mountain City, the capital of Goguryeo, burned the palace and massacred the people in the city!
But he didn't expect that after this battle, the palace moved to the capital and was restored, intending to rebel again!
But this time, Guanqiu Jian no longer tolerated him and led his army to fight again.
Seeing Wei Gong fleeing after hearing the news, Guanqiu Jian divided his troops into two groups, went all the way north to pursue Wei Gong, and went all the way south to sweep across the peninsula!
In less than a year, Wei Gong died of illness on the way to escape, and the entire peninsula was conquered!
After pacifying Liaodong and the peninsula, Zhuge Ke, the Taifu of Wu State, mobilized the power of the whole country and raised 200,000 troops to launch a massive Northern Expedition.
Guanqiu Jian calmly ordered the generals to counterattack, and finally defeated the Wu army!
After the Gaopingling Incident, facing the increasingly rampant Sima family, Guanqiu Jian, who cared about the royal family of Cao Wei, launched the second of the three rebellions in Huainan!
It's a pity that he can't sing alone and eventually died in the chaos!
It is no exaggeration to say that Guanqiu Jian was both loyal and capable of fighting!
I didn't expect that he would be among the Forbidden Army, and he had made another military exploit today!
The more Yang Ling looks at Guanqiu Jian, the more he likes him!
"Has His Highness King Qi ever heard of the last general's name?"
Guanqiu Jian was a little confused.
"Of course I've heard of this."
Yang Ling chuckled and explained casually,
"Your father did quite well in Wuwei County back then!"
"I didn't expect the general to remember my father's name!"
Guanqiu Jian was slightly startled, with a look of emotion on his face.
His father, Guan Qiuxing, was an official in Wuwei County back then. When Yang Ling was conquering Liangzhou, he even talked with his father.
Precisely because Guan Qiu Xing admired Yang Ling so much, Guan Qiu Jian regarded Yang Ling as his idol since he was a child!
After his father died and his eldest brother died early, Guanqiu Jian came to the capital and served as a captain of the Imperial Army!
"You have made such a great contribution today, what do you want?"
Yang Ling asked with a chuckle.
"What I did today was just my duty. I dare not ask for anything!"
Guanqiu Jian said respectfully.
Sensible young man, the road is getting wider!
Yang Ling glanced at Guanqiu Jian approvingly and said thoughtfully,
"In that case, then just stay with me and wait for my orders!"
Upon hearing this, Guanqiu Jian was stunned.
The people on the side looked at him with quite envious eyes!
Although according to Yang Ling's wishes, Guanqiu Jian didn't have any position beside him, Yang Ling made it clear that he wanted to reuse him!
Previously, only Yang Ling's two disciples, Deng Ai and Jiang Wei, had such treatment!
This is much more promising than staying in the Forbidden Army as a captain!
"Why are you standing there in a daze? Why don't you thank His Highness Prince Qi quickly!"
Zhao Yun on the side smiled.
"Thank you, His Highness King Qi!"
Only then did Guanqiu Jian come to his senses and salute Yang Ling excitedly.
"From now on, Jian is willing to follow His Highness the King of Qi, in front of and behind the horse, without any hesitation!"
"So good!"
Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction.
The reason why he kept Guanqiu Jian by his side was very simple.
People like Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao are already quite old, so it's time to find a successor for them!
Although Guanqiu Jian is young, he is more successful because of his loyalty and his ability in both civil and military affairs!
As long as he is cultivated for a period of time, he will be a pillar of Cao Wei, and Yang Ling intends to leave him to Cao Yuan!
After the mourning period for Cao Zhi expired, Cao Yuan led the civil and military officials to personally witness his burial!
After that, the imperial court held a grand enthronement ceremony, and Cao Yuan officially became the emperor!
During this period of time, while Yang Ling ordered to recuperate, he accompanied many beauties at his house.
Speaking of which, thanks to his unremitting efforts, even Zhang Qiying, who finally entered the palace, successfully became pregnant.
Today, Yang Ling has more than thirty descendants, some of whom he cannot even name.
Feeling guilty, he sometimes asks himself, am I too romantic?
…
Yizhou.
Chengdu.
I saw a mighty army outside the city, coming from south to north.
The flag held high by the army sergeants had the word "Zhuge" written on it.
Yes, this army was led by Zhuge Liang.
When Liu Bei and Yang Ling were fighting for Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang stayed at the rear, but he was never idle.
On the one hand, he allocated grain and fodder to Liu Bei in front, and on the other hand, he appeased the local nobles and people and put down the rebellion. On the other hand, he also commanded generals Liu Feng, Samoko, and Wang Ping to expand territory in the southwest direction.
With both kindness and power, Zhuge Liang used various means to help Liu Bei occupy a large territory and successfully conquered the barbarian king Meng Huo!
After learning that Liu Bei was defeated in Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang quickly returned his troops!
Seeing Chengdu not far ahead, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At this moment, I saw a few war horses standing and galloping towards this side!
The people on the horse were none other than Fazheng, Zhang Song and others.
"Why did Mr. Xiaonao come to greet me personally?"
Zhuge Liang said with a smile.
"Mr. Kong Ming has accomplished such a remarkable feat, so we should personally come to greet him."
Fazheng smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries, then whispered,
"Actually, I came to see Kong Ming first because I had something important to discuss!"
When Zhuge Liang heard this, his heart moved, but on the surface he said calmly,
"What's important?"
"My lord intends to proclaim himself emperor. I wonder what Kong Ming thinks of this matter?"
