Yedu. The main gate of the imperial city, Cheng'en Gate.

"Open the palace gate." With the shout of the imperial guards at the head of the city, the three-meter-high vermilion door slowly opened. A man walked out of the palace with his head raised and walked out first.

"Meet the General." The soldiers holding halberds and armor on both sides saw the visitor. They were very familiar with the salute.

"Okay..." Wen Yuan walked out of the palace wearing a black official suit and a purple ribbon. He smiled and waved his hands at the soldiers on both sides. He seemed to be used to this kind of thing. He took the lead, and behind him were the Grand Marshal Yang Biao, Situ Chunyu Jia and other large number of high-ranking officials in the court.

As soon as Wen Yuan left the palace gate, he immediately saw a nine-foot-tall man holding a big black halberd in one hand and holding a fiery red horse without a single hair.

Wen Yuan took the reins of the horse, turned over and shouted, and saw the horse raising its front hooves, running away like a fire-colored meteor.

"I'm back." Every day, if there is nothing wrong, Wen Yuan will rush back to his general's mansion as soon as he enters the inner hall. Wen Yuan completes the rapid transformation from a general who everyone respects to the head of the family.

"Dad is back." As soon as he heard Wen Yuan's voice, Xiao Yining would come to us like a flying person. Wen Yuan stayed in Yedu for more than half a year and had been pampering him like a pearl in his hand. The little guy and Wen Yuan were getting more and more friendly. He would shout to look for his father if he had something to do.

However, Xiao Yining is over three years old. If we follow the algorithm at the end of the Han Dynasty, he is already four years old. Some of the children from other noble families have hired Xixi to teach and teach elementary school at this age. Diao Chan has talked to him a lot about this. However, Wen Yuan is not in a hurry to consider these things. He always believes that children are lively by nature and do not suffer any loss. There is no kindergarten in this era. They are bound by rigid dogmas and enlightenment methods such as the Three Character Classic in the morning. This is not conducive to the future development of children.

"Husband, you are back. I have prepared your favorite meal..." Fan followed Xiao Yining and greeted her.

"Thank you for your hard work." Wen Yuan smiled at Qiao'e. He raised his eyes and saw Zhen Mi supporting Diao Chan. Wen Yuan did not dare to be negligent. He pulled Xiao Yining's small hand and rushed up and came to Diao Chan's side.

The reason why I was so nervous was because Diao Chan was pregnant. It had been more than two months. During this period, Wen Yuan ran to the mansion as soon as he had nothing to do. The main reason was here. Zhen Mi was a little strange. Among the three wives, Zhen Mi inherited the most rain and dew. But more than half a year has passed, and Zhen Mi's belly has never been moved.

Fan looked at Wen Yuan in a daze. A trace of resentment flashed in his eyes unaware of it. He moved his lotus steps and left quietly.

Wen Yuan didn't notice it. At this time, he was very "serious" to explain to Xiao Yining: "Xiao Yining. You are already a little man now. You can't be entangled with your mother every night. And your mother now has a baby in her belly. She wants to take care of the baby and sleep alone and rest..."

"Mom, can I go a few times less?" Although Xiao Yining is young, she already knows the bargaining. Everyone can't help but smile.

"No. Your mother has a baby. How did you tell me before? I made a kite for you a few days ago. Haven't you agreed to me?" Diao Chan has always loved this child. Wen Yuan was afraid that she would feel soft-hearted and agreed. At this time, I need to rest the most.

Xiao Yining looked at Diao Chan pitifully. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay..." Wen Yuan was about to breathe a sigh of relief. Xiao Yining's next sentence made him smile bitterly.

"I'll go to Aunt Zhen's place tonight..."

Looking at Wen Yuan who had been petrified and motionless, Zhen Mi covered her mouth and chuckled. Diao Chan wrapped her pink arms around Wen Yuan's arms and said, "Let's go, husband. Qiao'e has prepared the meal. Let's have a meal first."

"Uh... OK. By the way, Qiao'e. She was still here just now..." Wen Yuan woke up and nodded helplessly and smiled. He looked around, but disappeared.

While having a meal, someone suddenly asked for a meeting outside the hall.

Wen Yuan is now the lord of the general. Only two or three people can go straight into the back hall without notice.

"You eat first. I'll go out and take a look." Wen Yuan went out of the hall and saw Wang Li standing outside the hall. When he saw Wen Yuan, he was about to pay homage.

Wen Yuan hurriedly helped Wang Li up and said with a smile: "Wang Li. What good news will be brought back this time?"

Time flies. In a blink of an eye, it is now March of the second year of Jian'an. Wen Yuan has been in Yedu for almost a year. During this period in Yedu, Wang Li would occasionally inform Wen Yuan of the news found in various places.

Wang Li said with a rare look of joy: "Congratulations to the lord. The great victory in Youzhou. General Zhao's troops have captured Jicheng. Kill the prefect Gongsun Fan. The army beheaded more than 10,000 levels. Now they are in the nest of Gongsun Zan. "

"Take it seriously..." Wen Yuan couldn't help but feel happy. Last May, Wen Yuan raised an army in Yedu to attack Gongsun Zan. Zhao Yun, Qu Yi and Zhang He all went out together. At first, the three troops were progressing smoothly. In less than half a year, Zhao Yun in the middle line recovered Hejian and captured Zhuo County. He threatened the prefecture to govern Ji County.

Zhang He captured the plains on the southern front and killed Tian Kai. Later, he defeated Gongsun Fan and recovered the Bohai Sea. He drove all Gongsun Zan's strength in the two prefectures of Jiqing and Qing back to Youzhou.

Qu Yi, the northern line, also swept Dai County and Shanggu County with 30,000 infantry and cavalry from Bingzhou and Southern Xiongnu, and connected with the anti-Gongsun Zan forces in Yuyang.

For a moment, the three armies and tens of thousands of troops rebelled against Gongsun Zan extended on the southwest of Youzhou. Gongsun Zan's original huge territory was only western Liaoning and two counties in Youbeiping. The power was greatly reduced.

However, when attacking the Jicheng prefecture of Youzhou, Wenyuan's army encountered trouble. In October, water dripped in the wilderness turned into ice. The weather was extremely cold. In addition, Jicheng was high and deep. Gongsun Zan's relative Gongsun Fan was also heavily guarded. More than 100,000 troops attacked the city one month in a row. The soldiers were damaged and the generals were killed and more than 10,000 soldiers were killed and killed. Jicheng could not be attacked. As the weather became colder and cold, the army failed to attack Jicheng for a long time. Instead, countless people were frozen to death and frostbite. As a last resort, Zhao Yun could only order the army to be stationed in various parts of Youzhou. When the weather warmed up, the battle began again.

It was not too unexpected that Wenyuan did not arrive. Youzhou was located in the north and the climate was even colder than Hebei. The only one suitable for conquests in the year was summer and autumn. As soon as winter began, it was not suitable for field combat. I remember that in history, Yuan Shao sent Qu Yi to attack Gongsun Zan. It lasted for more than three years. It was able to force Gongsun Zan into such a situation in less than a year. Zhao Yun and others made great progress.

Unexpectedly, February had just passed. When Youzhou was still warm and cold, Zhao Yun had already captured Jicheng, the important town of Youzhou. He killed the guard Gongsun Fan. Wen Yuan couldn't help but feel happy. In this way, if the process goes well, Gongsun Zan will be destroyed this year.
