    At the beginning of March, Yuan Shao once again left Jushou to guard Yecheng. He personally led Yuan Xi, Shenpei, Guo Tu, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, etc., and led 70,000 troops and 50,000 civilians out of Yecheng in a mighty manner to Liyang.  Station troops.  ¡ü, When the army arrived at Liyang, Benchu ??ordered his second son Yuan Xi to lead an army of 20,000 people to cross Baimajin first.  Yu Jin, who was stationed in Baima County, made no response and allowed Yuan Xi to cross the river.  After Yuan Xi crossed the river, Guo Tuqiu guarded Liyang.  Yuan Shao left 10,000 troops for Guo Tu, ordering him to garrison the retreat route and distribute food and grass. He himself commanded 40,000 troops and civilians to cross Baimajin.  At this time, the Dang bandit army was stationed in Hanoi, while Han Hao gathered the Panshi army to garrison Chaoge to guard against Yuan Shao's bandit territory.  After Yuan Shao crossed the river, Yuan Xi led his army and 20,000 civilians southward, first conquering Yan County, and building extensive trenches here to prevent Deng Ji's cavalry from attacking, threaten Chenliu County, and protect Ben Chu's flanks.  The Eight Thousand Imperial Guards were also ordered by Cao Cao to go to Yan County to confront Yuan Xi.  "Tap tap! tap tap tap!" On the galloping road outside Yongmen City Gate, a small group of horses rushed toward Luoyang City.  There are more than twenty horses in this group, mostly connected to each other by ropes. There are only six or seven knights on the horses.  Although this is Luoyang, the heart of Sizhou, and it is generally impossible for enemies or bandits to appear, but looking at the costumes of these knights on horseback, it is obvious that they are all foreigners, and there is not a single Han among them. General Gu Sheng's subordinates under Yongmen  The soldiers on duty immediately became nervous.  "Seal the gate!" After the generals shouted the order, the soldiers immediately drove away the people and blocked the city gate. They put up their halberds in front and stretched their bows in the back, all pointing at the running knights.  The people who entered and exited the city gate hurriedly retreated to the roadside. Most of them were not afraid, but looked curiously at the approaching cavalry.  The cavalry was getting closer and closer, and began to slow down their horses, but General Bai still shouted loudly: "Dismount, whoever is coming!"  After slowing down in one step, release the horse and then run closer, reining in the mount.  The alien knights jumped off their mounts.  One of them carried a few white cards, ran to the city gate, handed them respectfully into the hands of General Bai, and then said in proficient Chinese: "Master Kebi of Xianbei asks to see General Deng. I hope you can do it!" General Bai will be careful.  After inspecting several waist badges, they were all processed and processed in the land east of Hedong, and then he said: "A certain person will lead you to the official residence first, and then report to the general's palace. If my lord wants to see you, someone will come to you!"  Don't cause trouble in the city, and don't run horses!" The Xianbei man said with a flattering smile: "Don't dare!" The hundred generals nodded and sent a few soldiers to guard these Xianbei people as they entered the city, and then sent another person to inform General Wei.  Kebineng was among the few Xianbei people who entered the city. It was the first time for him to enter a majestic Han city like Luoyang. From a distance, he began to be shocked by its majesty. After entering the city, he began to envy its prosperity, but he had other thoughts.  I am worried and not in the mood to visit various places yet.  Deng Ji did not keep him waiting.  That night, he sent someone to the official residence to summon him into the palace.  After entering General Wei's mansion, he saw Deng Ji, Tian Feng and others, and Yan Rou, who was left as a hostage, was also invited. Kebi Neng knelt down and cried bitterly: "General, forgive me! General, have mercy! General, make the decision!" See him  With such a performance, everyone from Deng Ji to the following was naturally puzzled.  Kebinengcai explained: "I was in the border area and heard for a long time that the general had good relations with Pang Zhen and Heishan, and that Bingzhou belonged to Pang Zhen. It was convenient for him to transport horses south, and he wanted to exchange his son with the general. Unexpectedly, Pang Zhen sent his general secretly  In the middle of the attack, hundreds of people were killed and their horses were robbed. Wan asked the general to take charge! "Last year, the Xianbei Wuhuan cavalry was defeated by Deng Ji. The remaining troops were captured because they had run out of food. The two sides agreed to exchange horses for prisoners.  .  After spring.  Ke Bi Neng was the first to prepare the replacement horse. When he went south last year, he knew that Pang Zhen was dependent on Deng Ji. Although he was now in charge of Bingzhou, he was still an ally of Sizhou. It should be safe to pass through Bingzhou.  He wanted to exchange the captured son and son back before Bu Dugen, so as to gather enough horses and queen in the spring.  Ready to set off on the road.  It was necessary to transport more than 3,000 horses to replace people, and to reserve some mounts for the son's return. In the end, Kebi was able to personally lead 1,000 horses and drive more than 5,000 horses south, and he sent an envoy to inform Pang.  real.  "It's just that although Pang Zhen occupied Bingzhou, it was not easy to get horses under his command. He only rose up in a short period of time, and now he only has two or three thousand horses. How can he not be greedy after hearing this news?  Bingzhou is really dilapidated now. If there is no windfall, how can we narrow the gap with other princes?  Ke Bi Neng was afraid of death and did not dare to enter the city in Bingzhou. However, although he was careful, he was eventually ambushed by a large group of thieves in the wild. Ke Bi Neng was able to escape with only 800 horses, and all the horses he transported were captured.  No need to ask, these thieves must be dressed up by Pang Zhen¡¯s subordinates!  Ke Bineng is quite scheming, and he is even more afraid that this matter will lead to Deng Ji¡¯s failure.He kept his promise and returned his son to his family, and secretly conspired with Pang Zhen's family to seize his horse for nothing. In order to find out, he led his people to follow the thieves, and sent people south to Shangdang and Sizhou to inquire about Deng Ji's relationship with Deng Ji.  Pang Zhen relationship.  Many "Xianbei" in his tribe are actually Han people who fled to the border areas to avoid trouble after the great chaos. It is very convenient for them to get information.  The group of thieves finally returned to Jinyang, and two days later they began to practice cavalry outside the city. There were no horses to go south again.  News also came back from the south that Deng Ji and Pang Zhen were now at odds with each other, and many old Montenegrin thieves had abandoned Pang Zhen and gone south to join Deng Ji.  It was only then that Ke Bineng determined that the horse robbery had nothing to do with Deng Ji, and boldly came to Luoyang to cry out.  Although Shangdang captured a lot in the first battle, and the army no longer lacked horses after Xiliang was pacified and Han Sui surrendered, Deng Ji was still extremely angry when he heard the news.  It is unlikely that Ke Bi can lie. The truth of this matter will be known once the investigation is carried out.  Of the 5,000 horses that Pang Zhen robbed, more than 3,000 belonged to Sizhou. This was another provocation by Pang Zhen!  After hearing the news, Deng Ji's eyes flashed fiercely, and he asked his surroundings: "Tian Shi, Jia Gong, Yuan Zhi, and Pang Shuangji have repeatedly ruined my affairs. Now that Yuan and Cao are about to have a fierce battle, they have no time to worry about it. Can they use troops to annex the state first?"  Tian Feng muttered: "Our immediate priority is to establish the country; secondly, we will watch the battle between Yuan and Cao. Both of them are critical, and it is not appropriate to cause trouble again." With Yan Rou and Ke Bi Neng here, Tian Feng will not  It was clearly stated that all armies should stay on guard against Yuan and Cao, or Cao and Yuan, but Jia Xu and Xu Shu both understood and nodded in agreement with Tian Feng's point of view.  To establish the great Yuan Dynasty, everything needs to be built, and the soldiers are in urgent need of recuperation after years of fierce fighting. It is really not suitable to start the war again at this time. After thinking about it, Deng Ji reluctantly nodded and agreed to put down his bad breath for the time being.  Deng Ji was not ready to send troops, but Ke Bineng's matter had not been resolved. He fell to the ground and cried again: "If we suffer this disaster again, the whole army is exhausted, and we can't raise more horses to replace our son. I am on the border and have heard about the general for a long time.  In the name of generosity, I beg for mercy. If the son of the tribe is allowed to return, I will be grateful! From now on, no one will dare to disobey the general's orders!"  They all have good relations. Seeing his miserable condition, they couldn't help but help him: "I came to Luoyang and heard about the system of public country. He is a wise king in the real world! I have thought about it for a long time, and I want to beg to be used by Xinyuan even though I am not talented. I hope he can be used by Xinyuan."  Don't abandon me because of your vulgarity! The ignorant people in the border areas may also gain a little insight: in the new Yuan Dynasty, the virtues of the public should be spread in the world, so that the border people will be happy to come to the court.  The public respects the people on the border. It is not his intention to lose his horse now. If he can be forgiven and allowed to go, he may be able to use it later." After Yan Rou said this, Ke Bineng cried bitterly and begged Deng Ji.  He said to Yan Ju: "I have lived in the border area for a long time, and I have won the hearts of foreigners. Now I wish to be an official, but I can't get it! I have only stepped to Dugen and Tadun, so I can't accept the release of the prisoners lightly!" Ruo Kebi can be empty-handed!  Lai Shang can get Deng Ji to release the prisoners. What will Bu Dugen, Tadun, and Lou Ban think when they arrive?  Or maybe after hearing it, it was also called being robbed?  Hearing what Deng Ji said, Yan Rou stopped trying to persuade him. Although Ke Bineng was helpless, there was nothing he could do.  Deng Ji could not agree to let him go, so Ke Bineng temporarily stayed in Luoyang City.  Yan Rou was willing to become an official, so Deng Ji forgot about his original identity as a hostage. Two days later, he invited Yan Rou to the county governor's house to help Tian Chou work with Yan Pu and get familiar with Sizhou's political affairs.  Kebi was able to gather enough replacement horses to go south first. When Bingzhou was robbed, Bu Dugen was already on the road. When he learned about it halfway, he immediately changed his route and drove his horse down through the old Xiongnu territory.  After the Dang Kou army conquered Hetao and Liu Bao defeated Hedong, the Xiongnu forces were severely hit. They have not yet recovered. They can only control a few hundred miles around the Xiongnu royal court and are unable to intercept the pace.  root.  Tadun and Louban took advantage of Yuan Shao's army to go out to fight, and their rule was empty, so they drove horses from Youzhou to exchange prisoners.  Tadun and Louban waited for the battle between Yuan and Cao before setting off. Budugen went around the Hetao. They were originally far behind Kebineng. However, Kebineng was robbed and stayed in Bingzhou to watch and inquire for a long time. There was a big gap between the groups of people.  for shortening.  Nine days after Kebineng arrived in Luoyang, Zhang Yi hurriedly sent a letter to Luoyang, telling Bu Dugen to drive into Hedong; three days later, Jia Kui's messenger also arrived, reporting that Tadun and Louban had entered Hanoi.  Deng Jiling¡¯s military horse farm dispatched officials to Hedong and Hanoi, and selected 7,000 good horses from three families. Satisfied, he ordered Luoyang to send the prisoners from the three families to Heyang County, Hanoi, and Budugen, Tadun, and Louban would take them.  However, after Sizhou released the people, Bu Dugen led several people across the river and rushed to Luoyang City, asking to see Deng Ji. Firstly, he thanked him for keeping his promise to release the people, and secondly, he begged not to release Ke Bineng's men.  Deng Ji and Tian Feng had a hard time deciding whether to let go or not, while one was waiting to beg for mercy.  Jia Xu called Yan Rou to inquire carefully about Ke Bineng and Bu Dugen's past affairs. After having banquets with them several times, he said to Deng Ji: "Looking at the two chiefs of Xianbei, Ke Bi Neng has great ambitions. Bu Dugen??is upright.  If the lord wants to win over the Xianbei tribe for use, he cannot have both. It is better to help him reach his roots and eliminate Kebi Neng.  " Deng Ji asked Tian Feng and Xu Shu again. Tian Feng said: "Wen He is very accurate in judging people. I think Ke is more capable than others, and he is not willing to be inferior to others.  "Xu Shu said: "I heard that Ke Bi Neng is strong now but Bu Du Gen is weak. If my lord wants to win over his equal heart, it will be easy to win by helping the weak and taking advantage of the strong!  " So Deng Jiling transferred the captured Kebineng tribe to Bu Dugen. The Xianbei people basically had no national concept. They only subordinated the weak to the strong. If they could be supplemented by Kebineng tribe, Bu Dugen was naturally grateful. When leaving,  Kneeling down, weeping and thanking him, he said, "The people of my tribe are now ministers of Duke Deng and will never rebel against you!  If Duke Deng has something to do, if he sends someone to call him, he will definitely be dispatched!  "With this, Deng Ji asked him to raid Bingzhou when he got the opportunity after returning. Kebineng was so frightened that he heard that his captured son Lang was given to Bu Dugen. He fled Luoyang that day. After leaving the city for three or four miles, he  He turned his horse's head, pointed his whip at Luoyang, and said angrily: "One day I will be the master of this city!  ¡± (There are a lot of things going on today, so I can only update once a day.
