Life of the characters

Protect the emperor and return to Beijing

In February 189 (the fifth year of Zhongping), Guo Tai, the rest of the Huangjin uprising army, set up an army in Baibo Valley to resist the imperial court of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Han Xianchu was a general of the Baibo army. He collaborated with Yang Feng, Li Le, Hu CAI and so on. Later, Yang Feng took refuge with Li Ying, a warlord in Liangzhou. In July 195 (the second year of Xingping), Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty in Chang'an, with the consent of Liangzhou warlords Li Xi and Guo Si, who controlled the Eastern Han court, returned to Luoyang, the old capital, and accompanied generals Yang Feng and Dong Cheng. On the way, Li Yu and others repented and joined forces to rob Han Xiandi. In November, the two sides fought in Dongjian, Hongnong county. As a result, Yang Feng and Dong Cheng were defeated, and hundreds of officers and soldiers were killed and injured. When Wang Shi failed, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had to sleep in the fields of Caoyang. Yang Feng and Dong Cheng pretended to ask Li Ying and others for peace and secretly sent envoys to Hedong county to recruit Han Siam, Li Le, Hu CAI and Youxian king of Southern Xiongnu. Han Siam and other troops came to support with thousands of cavalry to help Yang Feng and Dong Cheng break through Li He and others, decapitate them thousands of levels, and Xiandi continued to drive eastward. Dong Cheng was escorted by Li Le, while Han Xian was escorted by Hu Cai, Yang Feng and Qu Beiduan. In December, Li Qian and others led troops to catch up with each other again. The two sides fought again. Yang Feng and Han Xian were defeated, and 100 officials were slaughtered on a large scale again. They attacked and killed continuously from Dongjian for 40 Li. Xiandi's car arrived at Shanxian with difficulty and crossed the Yellow River at night. Zhang Yang, the prefect of Hanoi County, also joined the convoy when passing through Dayang County of Hedong county. When he went to Anyi County, Emperor Xian sent his servant Han Rong to Hongnong county to seek peace with Li Xi and Guo Si, and the situation eased.

Go east to Yuanshu

During the period of escorting Xiandi, Han Xian and Yang Feng, Dong Cheng, Zhang Yang became discordant because of their opposition. In February 196 (the first year of Jian'an), Han Siam led the attack on Dong Cheng, who returned to Zhang Yang. In July, Xiandi finally drove into Luoyang. Yang Feng and Zhang Yang went out to guard Luoyang. Han Xian and Dong Chengze stayed in Beijing to guard the imperial palace. In August, Han Siam was worshipped as a general and a captain of Sili by Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. After that, Han Siam was proud of his merits, did whatever he wanted, and disturbed the government. Dong Cheng was worried and secretly summoned Cao caoqin, the king of Yanzhou. Cao Cao then paid tribute to the court and took the opportunity to report the sins of Han Xian and Zhang Yang. Han Siam was frightened and went to Yang Feng, who was stationed in Liang county. However, Xiandi thought about the contribution of Han Siam's guard and did not investigate Han Siam's fault. In September, Emperor Xian went to Xu county under the protection of Cao Cao. Han Xian sent troops from Liang county with Yang Feng to rob Emperor Xian, but failed to catch up with his car. Yang Feng and Han Xian then led the army to Dingling County of Yingchuan county to plunder and harass, but Cao Cao ignored them. In October, Cao Cao suddenly attacked Yang Feng and Han Xian's barracks in Liang county. Yang Feng and Han Xian lost their foothold and went east to Yuan Shu.

Treason to the cloth

In the spring of 197 A.D. (the second year of Jian'an), Yuan Shu called himself the son of heaven and sent Han Yin as his envoy to convey to Lu Bu, who was occupying Xuzhou that he was about to become emperor. At the same time, he wanted to form a family with Lu Bu. Lv Bu listened to the opinions of Pei Xiang Chen Yu, refused to get married, and handed Han Yin over to Cao Cao. When Yuan Shu heard of his anger, he sent his generals Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui to join forces with Han Xian and Yang Feng, and led tens of thousands of infantry to attack Lu Bu in seven ways. Chen Yu suggested to woo Yang Feng and Han Xian. Lu Bu wrote a letter to express his intention to unite, and promised to give all the money and food to the general after he defeated Yuan Shu. Han Xian and Yang Fengda were so happy that they decided to unite with Lu Bu to attack Zhang Xun and others in xiapi. Yuan Shu's army was defeated and almost completely destroyed. After that, Han Siam and Yang Fengzhou attacked Liu Bei's army in Xuzhou and Yangzhou, and under the instruction of Lu Bu, they went to rob Liu Bei's army. Unexpectedly, Yang Feng is trapped by Liu Bei. Han Xian is afraid and wants to flee to Bingzhou. On the way, he is killed by Zhang Xuan, the commander of zhuqiu county.
