Li Bai was happy that Zhao Yun had submitted to him. In his previous life, he had two favorite generals, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei. As Li Bai heaved a sigh of relief, he suddenly remembered that there was still Tian Feng. He smiled bitterly in his heart, then turned around to look at this strategist who was one of the best in the world.
Tian Feng (? - 200 years), character Hao, Julu (now Hebei Julu area) people, said Bohai people.
[1]At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao's subordinate adviser, official to Jizhou do not drive. He was upright and had repeatedly advised Yuan Shao but was not accepted. Cao Cao's subordinate adviser Xun Yu once commented that he was "upright and rebellious." Later, he was imprisoned by Yuan Shao because he advised Yuan Shao to attack Cao Cao. After the battle of Guandu, Tian Feng was killed by Yuan Shao.
Tian Feng had been intelligent since childhood. When he was young, he had lost his parents and mourned. Although the mourning time had passed, he still smiled and did not show his teeth. Therefore, he was highly regarded by his neighbors.
Moreover, Tian Feng was knowledgeable and talented. He was very famous in Jizhou. At first, he was recruited by the Taiwei Mansion and recommended as Mao Cai. Later, he was elected as an imperial censor. Because he hated the eunuchs who were in power and the virtuous officials who were killed, he abandoned his official position and returned home.
In 196 AD (the first year of Jian 'an), Cao Cao moved Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to Xudu and began to use the Son of Heaven to command the vassals.
Every time Yuan Shao received an imperial edict, he was always worried that it would be disadvantageous to him, so he wanted the emperor to move closer to him. He sent someone to Cao Cao to tell him that Xu County was low-lying and humid, and Luoyang was damaged and destroyed. He should move the capital to Zhen City so that it would be closer to a complete and abundant area.
Cao Cao did not agree. Tian Feng said to Yuan Shao,"Since the plan to move the capital is not adopted, it is best to seize Xu County as soon as possible and bring the Emperor over. At every turn, he will use the Emperor's Shao Ling to give orders to the whole country. This is the best way." If he didn't do this, he would eventually be controlled by others. At that time, even if he regretted it, it wouldn't work.”Yuan Shao did not accept it.
Later, Yuan Shao used Tian Feng's strategy to destroy Gongsun Zan, pacify Hebei, and occupy four states.
In 200 AD (the fifth year of Jian 'an), before the Battle of Guandu, Liu Bei killed the governor of Xuzhou, Che Zhou, and occupied Pei County, betraying Cao Cao. Cao Cao personally led his troops to attack Liu Bei.
Tian Feng said to Yuan Shao," Cao Cao is the one who is fighting with you for the world. Cao Cao is now attacking Liu Bei at the border. The battle between the two sides cannot end quickly. Mobilize all the troops to attack Cao Cao's rear. Once you go, it will be settled."
The army moved according to the timing, and the time was right. Yuan Shao refused to say that his son was ill, and Tian Feng's plan was not implemented.
Tian Feng raised his walking stick and knocked on the ground."Cough, the matter is over! It wasn't easy to catch up with such an opportunity, but he actually lost it because of a child's illness. What a pity!”Yuan Shao was very angry after hearing this and alienated Tian Feng from then on.
Cao Cao was afraid that Yuan Shao would cross the Yellow River, so he stepped up his attack on Liu Bei and defeated Liu Bei in less than a month.
Liu Bei defected to Yuan Shao, who then attacked Xu County. Tian Feng felt that since he had lost the opportunity in front, it was not appropriate to send troops now, so he dissuaded Yuan Shao, saying,"Cao Cao has already defeated Liu Bei, Xu Du will no longer be empty. Moreover, Cao Cao was good at using troops and was unpredictable. Although he had few people, he could not be underestimated.
It was better to hold on for a long time now. The general relied on the sturdiness of the Yellow River and the mountains to have troops from four states. He united with heroes on the outside and cultivated internally to prepare for war.
Then, they would select elite troops and divide them into surprise soldiers. They would take turns to attack while the enemy was empty and use them to harass the south of the Yellow River. If the enemy rescues the right, I will attack the left. If the enemy rescues the left side, I will attack the right side, so that the enemy will be exhausted and the people will not be able to settle down in their own industry. We are not tired yet, but the other side is already tired. In less than three years, we can defeat the enemy by sitting still.
Now, instead of using a sure-win strategy in the court, they wanted to decide success or failure through a war. If they could not get what they wanted, it would be too late to regret.”Yuan Shao did not listen.
Tian Feng tried his best to dissuade him and offended Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao thought that he was ruining the morale of the army and locked Tian Feng up. Therefore, he first issued a denunciation and went south.
When Cao Cao heard that Tian Feng was not in the army, he said happily,""Yuan Shao will definitely lose." After Yuan Shao was defeated, Cao Cao sighed and said,"If Yuan Shao had used Tian Feng's plan, the outcome would have been uncertain."”
By the time Yuan Shao's army returned, they had fallen apart. The soldiers pounded their chests and cried,""If Tian Feng was here, it wouldn't have come to this.”Someone said to Tian Feng,"You will definitely be put in an important position."”
Tian Feng said,"Deacon Yuan looks generous on the surface, but he's jealous on the inside. He doesn't believe in my loyalty. Moreover, I've offended him many times by telling the truth." If he wins, he'll be happy and forgive me; After losing a battle, the resentment and suspicion in their hearts would flare up.
If I had won, I would have been safe. Now that I've been defeated, I don't expect to live.”When Yuan Shao returned, he said,"I didn't take Tian Feng's advice, and he really laughed at me."”
Feng Ji took the opportunity to slander him,"Tian Feng clapped his hands and laughed when he heard that the general was defeated. He was happy that his prediction was correct!"”Yuan Shao then killed Tian Feng.
Luo Guanzhong once commented on Tian Feng,"Tian Yuanhao of Julu is a man of extraordinary talent. In the Zhou Dynasty, there were eight scholars in Qi, and in the Yin Dynasty, there were three benevolent people. He remonstrated with Yuan Shao and was loyal to the people. I can only sigh that I died in prison, and the yellow soil covered the unicorn.”
"Yesterday, he was killed in the army. Today, Tian Feng died in prison. The pillars of Hebei have been broken, how can the country not be destroyed in the beginning!”
From this we can see Tian Feng's ability, can govern the country, can manage the army, can use strategy. Li Bai also had two favorite civil officials. One of them was Tian Fengtian Yuan Hao. He was simply an all-rounded talent, not much inferior to **.
Li Bai looked at Tian Feng and smiled." Mr. Yuan Hao, can you help me save the people of the world?"”，Tian Feng first nodded, then shook his head and said,"Daren, will you really remember today's bold words in the future?”Li Bai glanced at Tian Feng.
" Bai isn't lying," he said solemnly." If you don't believe me, why don't you stay here and supervise Bai?" If Bai forgets, I hope you can remind him to encourage him so that he won't go astray one day. What do you think, Mister Yuan Hao?”At the end of his speech, Li Bai smiled proudly.
After Tian Feng heard Li Bai's words, he shook his head with a bitter smile. Then, he knelt down towards Li Bai and said,""Feng greets my lord. I hope that my lord will remember today's words in the future?”
Seeing that Tian Feng had finally submitted, Li Bai was overjoyed. He quickly helped Tian Feng up and said,""Mister Yuan Hao, please get up. In the future, I still need Mister to remind me not to betray Mister and the people?”，Tian Feng nodded.
After Li Bai subdued Zhao Yun and Tian Feng, he was very happy. Then, he turned to Zhao Fan and said,"I wonder if this small temple can accommodate a great god like Big Brother Zhao?”
Zhao Fan forced a smile and knelt down to Li Bai." Fan greets my lord. I'm willing to serve my lord."
Li Bai helped Zhao Fan up and said three words in a row to show his excitement and joy. The three met Li Bai
He was so happy and excited.
" Zilong, you came at the right time. I wanted to build a cavalry, but I lacked a general, so I put this matter on hold. Today, Zilong came to join me, which is a good solution to my urgent need," Li Bai said happily as he held Zhao Yun's hand.
Zhao Yun saw that Li Bai wanted to hand over the cavalry to him and let him, a newcomer, be the general of the cavalry. This was naked trust. He immediately knelt down and said," My lord, Yun is a new person. My lord has called such an important cavalry to Yun. Yun is very excited, but I am afraid that I will disappoint my lord's trust."
Li Bai helped Zhao Yun up and said sternly,"" The ancients said that if you doubt someone, don't use him. If you use him, don't doubt him. Since I dare to hand the cavalry over to Zilong, it means that I trust you. However, you shouldn't be so unambitious. Zilong, just do it without worry. Even if you don't do well enough, you can just start all over again. I believe that you will succeed one day."
What else could you say to such a lord? Zhao Yun immediately choked and said,"My lord, don't worry. I will do my best to do this. I have already repaid my lord's kindness."
Li Bai smiled in satisfaction and said to Zhao Yun,""Zilong, please get up. I've brought back 20,000 good horses from Xuantu County's horse farm. Zilong, you have to train them well in half a year. I'll ask Guan Hai to help you. When they're done, I'll be of great use to you."
Zhao Yun nodded solemnly. Zhao Fan, who was at the side, was very happy when he saw his younger brother being put in an important position. When Tian Feng saw Li Bai handing over the Liaodong cavalry to Zhao Yun, who had just defected, his heart also surged. He nodded to himself. Now, he somewhat believed that Li Bai would be able to fulfill today's promise, and he could not help but feel excited.
" Brother Zhao," Zhao Fan interrupted Li Bai before he could finish,""My lord, since this subordinate has already pledged allegiance to my lord, please call Fan by his name."
Li Bai hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Zhao Yun and Tian Feng nodding with a serious expression, Li Bai could only smile helplessly and say,"Since that's the case, Zhao Fan, I want to send you to Jinzhou to assist Zhang He in defending the city. I wonder if you're willing." Zhao Fan nodded without hesitation." Lord, I'm willing." Li Bai nodded.
"Mr. Yuan Hao, I want you to manage the affairs of Liaodong Prefecture. What do you think?”
Tian Feng said expressionlessly,"Since it's the lord's orders, how could this subordinate dare to disobey?"
After Tian Feng finished speaking, he looked at Li Bai. Seeing that he wanted to say something, Li Bai smiled and said,"Mr. Yuan Hao, if you have something to say, just say it," Tian Feng said hesitantly."Yes, I am. My lord, I don't think you should be so polite to your subordinates. I'm not saying that it's bad to be polite to your subordinates, but if you do this, I'm worried that some military leaders might become arrogant. Please think twice, my lord."
Tian Feng said tactfully. Li Bai nodded his head and thought to himself, Tian Feng's reputation for being upright and upright is indeed well-deserved. However, what he said made sense. Li Bai made a decision in his heart and said to Tian Feng," Yeah, Mr. Yuan Hao did a good job. I'll consider it," Tian Feng nodded after hearing Li Bai's words.
At this moment, Li Bai said to the three of them," Today, the three of you have come to help me. I am very happy. In a while, I will welcome the three of you. It will not be too late to set off tomorrow to take up your posts. I hope the three of you will not refuse."
The three of them didn't reject Li Bai's good intentions and nodded. Seeing this, Li Bai laughed out loud and quickly ordered the servants to prepare the food and wine.
