Tan County is located in the central part of Xuzhou and the north-central part of Donghai State, and is the prefecture of Xuzhou.

After some rectification, Xuzhou has taken on a new look. Cao Cao led the state herds on his own and became the de facto ruler of Xuzhou's two counties and three kingdoms.

Now the general situation in Xuzhou has been determined. In the middle of December of the first year of Chuping, Mu Taoqian died in Xuzhou, and Cao Cao decided to give him a death sentence. As for the remaining Tao family, they moved to Lanling County in the northwest of Donghai Kingdom.

In fact, before Tao Qian's death, Cao Cao had already spoken his mind in Xuzhou. Even Cao Bao, who was not interested in him, rationally did not come out to refute him. In fact, he accepted his position in his heart. What he lacked was a Now that Tao Qian died, he was added as Xuzhou Shepherd, and even presented to the court. As for Dong Zhuo's answer, it doesn't matter.

In terms of civil servants, Xilue and Guo Jia must be with him at all times. They are indispensable for his think tanks. Xilue sacrifices wine for the military division, while Guo Jia does it; In name, he assisted the current Donghai Yiwang Liu Yi, but in fact he still obeyed Cao Cao's orders; Langya's country minister was Xiao Jian from the East China Sea, and Zuo Shun Wang Liu Rong.

Although Xiapi Kingdom exists, but now there is only one name left. With the death of King Liu Yi, the royal family has declined and there are no children to inherit it. The court has always ignored this because Dong Zhuo was in power. Cao Cao logically removed it as Xiapi The prefect of the county was appointed by Chen Deng, the original Diannong school lieutenant. This is because Chen Deng helped him get Xuzhou, and Cao Cao was rewarded and punished for his merits and demerits.

Cao Cao actually didn't trust Chen Deng very much, but now he has to rely heavily on him.It is really that there are too few people available in his hands, so he also arranged for Man Chong to be the county magistrate, as Chen Deng's deputy in charge of civil affairs. Chong had no previous experience in governing the region. Since Cao Cao wanted to train his own people, this was a good opportunity. I believe that Man Chong would learn a lot from Chen Deng's side, and with Man Chong's temperament, even if Chen Deng wanted to win him over, impossible.

As for generals, Xu Chu wanted to protect Cao Cao's safety.He was also brought by his side; Xiahou Dun was the prefect of Xiapi County, and Cheng Yu was the governor of the county; Xiahouyuan was named the capital of Pengcheng by Cao Cao, and he led [-] troops to guard Pengcheng, with Lu Qian as his assistant.

The prefect of Guangling is Zhang Chao. He is Zhang Miao's younger brother. Because of his elder brother's relationship, he has a good relationship with Cao Cao, and he was one of them when the Eighteenth Route challenged Dong Lianjun, so Cao Cao still regarded him as the prefect of Guangling.But this does not mean that Cao Cao believed him.

Now that the world is in chaos, Cao Cao will not trust anyone.Guangling County is one of the bridges for him to contact Sun Ce, and it is impossible to completely trust it to "outsiders". Therefore, in addition to the prefect, Cao Cao also set up another army here, led by Li Dian and Le Jin. Being by Cao Cao's side, it can be said that those who followed Cao Cao early have now gained their own benefits.

There is another person who has to be mentioned, this person is called Hua Xin, whose name is Ziyu.A native of Gaotang in Pingyuan, he used to be an official at Yuan Shu's office, but he did not pay attention to his repeated suggestions. Hua Xin left sadly. When he was passing through Xuzhou, he heard Cao Cao's name, so he came to vote.

Cao Cao was very happy with Hua Xin's arrival, and as soon as Hua Xin arrived, he asked Cao Cao for a plan.And it is a policy that needs to be persevered, that is, emphasizing agriculture rather than war. It is necessary to pay attention to agriculture, and Cao Cao also has this awareness.Non-war does not mean not to fight. After all, Hua Xin also knows that in today's troubled times, if he does not fight others, he will not be able to protect himself from others. What he said by "non-war" refers to those unnecessary wars, such as sometimes There is no need to fight the battle of morale and anger, as it will only hurt oneself, and will not gain any benefits. Both Guo Jia and Xilue agree with this point, and Cao Cao also feels deeply in his heart.

Now this Hua Xin is the Chief History Officer of the Cao Cao State Shepherd's Mansion, and helping him with the administrative affairs can be regarded as making the best use of him.

In the State Shepherd's Mansion of Tan County, Cao Cao and his men and women in the East China Sea were discussing matters, but what they were discussing now was the matter of relocating the state.

In fact, Xi Lue and Guo Jia, the two people who are now the master planners in Cao Ying, know that Cao Cao already has an idea in his heart, and now he is discussing it, just to learn from each other and make the plan more perfect.

However, they also agree with this matter in their hearts. If Tan County only governs a state, there is no problem, but is it true that Cao Cao is only willing to be the shepherd of a state?

They should focus on the world, but they have to think carefully about this position, which has something to do with their next plan. If they want to advance south, they should naturally be closer to the south. It is best to choose Xiapi County, but the south can be west; If you want to advance directly to the west, Pengcheng Kingdom is the first choice.

"In my opinion, Xiaxiang County in Xiapi County is governed by the state, and its radiation can reach south and west, and Xiapi is removed as a county. People may still be a little unstable..." After finishing speaking, Cao Cao asked again: "Zhi What do Cai and Fengxiao think?"

Xilue knew that what Cao Cao said was unstable, but it was actually a local family like the Chen family. At first they needed to rely on them, but later they also wanted to stabilize them, so they deliberately wooed them before, and now Chen Deng is the prefect of Xiapi County. , but Cao Cao does not trust him in his bones. Although he will not suppress him immediately, some restrictions and precautions are inevitable.

He was about to say something, but was interrupted by a notification, "There is a person outside asking to see the envoy, and he said it was an old friend who came to vote?"

Cao Cao frowned, "Didn't he say his name?"

"Yes, he said his name is Zhong Yao."

……

Cao Cao's reunion with old friends was a joy, but Yuan Shu encountered his troubles.

On the contrary, this trouble is not about Lujiang Sun Ce, Jiujiang Chen Wenwen and Danyang Zhou Xin, who have always irritated him. Although Yuan Shu lost several times in the battle with Sun Ce, it can't affect the overall situation in Yangzhou at the moment.

Chen Wen of Jiujiang died of illness a month ago, and there was no one to defend Jiujiang. Sun Ce took the opportunity to send Tai Shici to recover, but this aroused the dissatisfaction of Xia Zhou Xin, Chen Wen's old subordinate in Danyang. Sun Ce fought in the nest, and as a result, although the two of them would not lose both, Sun Ce had the upper hand in general, but when Zhou Xin came back to his senses, Yuan Shu had completely occupied Danyang County behind him. As for Poyang Lake Sun Ce's naval forces along the area also did not receive any orders because Sun Ce was unable to look south due to the battle with Zhou Xin.In vain watched the drama for nearly half a month.

In this way, Yuan Shu has won four of the six counties in Yangzhou, and the Jiujiang County that Sun Ce got is not complete, and Yuan Shu also took the opportunity to carve up part of it. In the end, he could only shrink back in Lujiang County. Yuan Shu got a large new territory to digest, and Sun Ce was not reconciled. But when he confronted Zhou Xin, he also killed one thousand enemies and lost eight hundred. Now he regrets listening to his elder brother Qu'a's advice.

Without Sun Ce as an opponent, Yuan Shu should be alone in Yangzhou for a while, but the news from Kuaiji County will never make him happy.

Wang Lang was originally from Tan County in the East China Sea, and he came to live in Kuaiji County by chance (if Lu Bu knew it, he would only think it was the inertia of history).Yuan Shu admired Qi's reputation and tried to recruit him several times, but was rejected by him. He never thought that Wang Lang would suddenly embrace Kuaiji and become self-reliant.

Because Yuan Shu attacked Sun Ce, Zhou Xin and others with a large force, there were not many confidants stationed in Kuaiji County, most of them were local soldiers in Kuaiji, and they didn't have much sense of belonging to Yuan Shu. Chang Shi went down to the soldiers of the Li people, and they all willingly joined him. He killed Yuan Shu's local prefect, expelled his confidants and supported him.

Yuan Shu couldn't help thinking that perhaps Wang Lang had long thought of self-reliance.That's why he rejected himself a few times before, and at the same time gave people the illusion that he was unwilling to become an official.It is true that he does not become an official now, but he directly became the "lord" and added himself as the prefect of Kuaiji, and declared that he only obeyed the orders of the emperor.

Everyone knows that Dong Zhuo is in power in the imperial court now, the little emperor is just a puppet, and the capital is thousands of miles away from here, even if an order is sent back and forth, it will take more than ten days. Make up your own mind.

But that's all if it's just that.At the same time, Yuan Shu also heard that Zhong Yao, who had disappeared from Wu Jun for a while, appeared again at this time, and even formed an ally with Wang Lang.

Once Wu County and Kuaiji County are united, one will be behind him, and the other will be in the north of him, almost forming a double-team situation. The eyelids jumped up and down.

So at this time, Yuan Shu had actually set his target on these two people first.Even if Yan Xiang tried to persuade him again and again: "My lord, Sun Ce of Lujiang is the confidant's trouble. Even if Wang Lang and Zhong Yao unite, they can't shake the foundation of the lord. On the contrary, it is this Sun Ce who has flourished in Yangzhou in a short period of time. At this moment, he is almost forced by the lord." When we are in a desperate situation, if we don’t take this opportunity to get rid of them quickly, I’m afraid the Lord will regret it in the future!”

Over there, Yang Hong said in a strange way: "Huaiji is right next to Yuzhang. How can you allow others to snore by the side of the couch? And Wu County is even closer to Xuzhou. Maybe Zhong Yao will go to Xuzhou's Cao Mengde and lure wolves into the house at that time." , this responsibility, but can Yan Changshi afford it?"

Yan Xiang was speechless for a moment. In fact, he also knew that Zhong Yao was coming out at this time. In addition to echoing Wang Langhui, he might also join Wang Lang in making Xuzhou Cao Mengde, but he could see very clearly that Cao Cao had just settled in Xuzhou. It is necessary to make great efforts to govern and rectify the place, and does not have so much thought to take into account the affairs of Yangzhou; what's more, although Sun Ce retreated to Lujiang, if Cao Cao wanted to enter Yangzhou, there would be a crack in the alliance between them, and Yuan Shu did not need to do it , Sun Ce will also take the initiative to drive Cao Cao out of Yangzhou.

But he also has a deep understanding of Yuan Shu's temperament. If he said that, it would greatly stimulate Yuan Shu's self-esteem. No matter how straightforward he was, he also knew that some things that violated the bottom line should not be said indiscriminately, and things that touched the bottom line should not be messed up, so at this time Then fell silent.

Yuan Shu glanced at Yan Xiang lightly, somewhat disappointed. Although he had already made up his mind, he hoped that Yan Xiang could come up with some constructive suggestions, but Yang Hong made him speechless with a single sentence, which was a waste of himself. value him.

People are so realistic, now that Yan Xiang is useless, Yuan Shu felt like he was an eyesore, and wanted to kick him aside. In the end, he calmed down, stood up and said loudly: "My decision has been made, immediately The Hui soldiers are besieging Wang Lang and Zhong Yao, I want them to get out of here and kneel before me and beg for mercy!"
