Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator.

At this moment, no one could understand Yu Guo's feelings.

The people of Rinan Commandery, born and raised there, could not understand.

Only Yu Guo, who had come to Rinan Commandery to take office, truly felt that Rinan Commandery seemed to have been completely forgotten by the Great Han.

Moreover, just as Rinan Commandery was facing internal and external troubles, not knowing how to face the gradual encroachment of the Linyi Kingdom, Yu Guo even had the idea of ​​burning everything together to protect the people and land under his rule.

The appearance of these unheard-of giant seaships made Yu Guo even feel as if he was in a dream.

It was not until after repeated identification that Yu Guo hurriedly tidied up his official robe, which had many patches, and straightened his clothes and hats before striding towards the shore.

The reason why Xu Sheng stayed here was naturally to contact the government of Rinan Commandery.

After Yu Guo, wearing an official robe, approached alone, Xu Sheng solemnly asked Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to greet him.

Although Rinan Commandery was extremely barren and sparsely populated, as officials of the Great Han, Xu Sheng would naturally not be rude in giving the respect they deserved.

Soon, Yu Guo was invited to the "Wujun" warship, which served as the flagship, and even though Yu Guo tried his best to remain calm, he was still shocked by the soldiers, each of whom could be called a tiger warrior, that he saw along the way.

At this point, Yu Guo no longer had any doubts about the Han identity of this fleet, but what he was puzzled and worried about was what was the purpose of such an elite navy appearing here, and whether they would be willing to help Rinan Commandery?

When Xu Sheng saw Yu Guo, who was obviously preoccupied, his expression was quite surprised.

In the chaotic situation where the state governors and commandery administrators completely controlled the military and political power, Xu Sheng saw a commandery administrator wearing such simple clothes for the first time.

Moreover, Yu Guo came to the meeting alone, which made Xu Sheng couldn't help but take a higher look at Yu Guo.

Therefore, Xu Sheng took the initiative to get up to greet Yu Guo and after he was seated, he stated his identity, saying, "I am Xu Sheng of Langya, a general under Liu Xuande, the General Who Pacifies the South and concurrently Governor of Yangzhou, the Imperial Uncle of the Great Han."

"Yu Guo of Kuaiji, greetings, General."

Although Yu Guo's official position was far above Xu Sheng's, Yu Guo knew that he was asking for help, and the sharpness of Xu Sheng's soldiers was enough to easily sweep Rinan Commandery.

Therefore, Yu Guo's attitude was quite low, and he even took the initiative to salute Xu Sheng.

Seeing this, Xu Sheng quickly returned the salute to Yu Guo.

This made Yu Guo feel greatly relieved, understanding that Xu Sheng's visit this time was to treat him with courtesy, and at least had no malice towards Rinan Commandery.

Immediately, Xu Sheng introduced Gan Ning, Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu, who were sitting beside him, to Yu Guo, and inevitably mentioned the names of Liu Bei and Li Ji.

However, Zhou Yu carefully observed Yu Guo's reaction and found that Yu Guo's expression did not change at all, obviously he knew nothing about Liu Bei and Li Ji.

This gave Zhou Yu a clearer understanding of the extent to which Rinan Commandery's news was blocked.

The reason why the fleet chose to dock in Rinan Commandery instead of going directly to the Linyi Kingdom was Zhou Yu's suggestion.

In addition to "Linyi rice," Liu Ji brought back a valuable sea chart, but Liu Ji did not know much about the Linyi Kingdom.

Being in a foreign land, in order to avoid accidents, Liu Ji almost always chose to have as little contact with others as possible, so Liu Ji's knowledge of other information about the Linyi Kingdom was also very limited.

Therefore, the fleet knew nothing about how large the current territory of the Linyi Kingdom was, where the capital was, what the regime was like, how many soldiers were available, and where the granaries were located, etc.

Therefore, Zhou Yu suggested coming to Rinan Commandery to try to contact the government of Rinan Commandery to understand some necessary information before making further plans.

Although Xu Sheng and Yu Guo had their own ideas when they first met, they did not show it on the surface. The content of their conversation mainly concerned the customs and conditions of Yangzhou and Jiaozhou.

Yu Guo undoubtedly knew the specific situation of Jiaozhou very well, which was also the information that Xu Sheng needed.

As for the changes in his hometown of Yangzhou, Yu Guo was also very curious.

Especially after learning about the prosperity of Wujun and the changes in Kuaiji Commandery, Yu Guo's first reaction was that he had met a liar.

Immediately, Yu Guo thought of the huge fleet in front of him, and felt that if Wujun did not have such a foundation, how could it support such a fleet?

It was just that the changes in Wujun and Kuaiji Commandery made Yu Guo feel strange, and even had a feeling that was difficult to describe for a while.

He had gone to Rinan Commandery to govern for many years, and did not dare to slack off in the slightest. He was originally quite satisfied with the changes under his rule.

However, comparing the Wujun in his memory with the Wujun in Xu Sheng's mouth, the changes in Wujun were so great that Rinan Commandery could not compare with it at all.

This made Yu Guo feel a sense of doubt as to whether he was suitable to govern a region.

However, the first meeting between the two sides was undoubtedly a pleasant one for both the host and the guest.

Xu Sheng also tried to speak, using the reason that he had been sailing at sea for a long time and planned to rest in Rinan Commandery for a few days, and obtained Yu Guo's permission.

After sending someone to take Yu Guo away from the Wujun warship and back to the shore, Xu Sheng, who was originally slightly drunk, tried hard to cheer up and asked Gan Ning and others who had also been accompanying him throughout the whole process.

"Do you think Prefect Yu is trustworthy?"

"Tsk!"

Gan Ning smacked his lips and said bluntly without being polite.

"It is hard to know a person's heart, especially in this kind of poor mountains and bad waters, it is most likely to produce evil officials and corrupt officials who dominate one side. That Yu Guo does look a bit frugal and upright."

"However, Rinan Commandery is adjacent to the Linyi Kingdom, and Yu Guo has been in Rinan Commandery for seven or eight years. If you say that Yu Guo has no contact with the Linyi Kingdom, I absolutely don't believe it."

"Therefore, instead of taking the risk of cooperating with Yu Guo, it is better to follow what I said and go all the way from north to south, completely penetrate the Linyi Kingdom, conquer it, and are we still afraid of not getting Linyi rice?"

Xu Sheng couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard this.

Gan Ning's thinking was completely that of a robber, crude, simple and direct.

However, Marquis Guoshi's intention was to bring Linyi back into the embrace of the Great Han, not to have a piece of land that had been smashed and abandoned.

According to Gan Ning's approach, it would inevitably affect a large number of ordinary people in the Linyi Kingdom, causing the little sense of identity with the Great Han that the people of the Linyi Kingdom had left after fifty-four years of erosion to disappear completely.

In this way, it would be extremely difficult for the officials who subsequently governed the Linyi Kingdom to win back the hearts of the people.

Therefore, after Xu Sheng nodded slightly, his eyes turned past Gan Ning and towards Zhou Yu, asking.

"Gongjin, do you have any insights?"

Zhou Yu, holding a feather fan in his hand, pondered slightly after hearing this and said.

"In my opinion, that Prefect Yu is trustworthy, and the possibility of collusion with the Linyi Kingdom is very small."

"How do you see that?" Xu Sheng asked.

"Clothing and dress, these may be faked, but just now I took the opportunity to offer a toast and observed him at close range..." (End of this chapter)
