Chapter 27 Stable Yuzhou

"Crush!" Li Yan rushed to the open gate first, and a thousand horses behind him followed closely. Du Yuan saw that someone was killed again, and he was so anxious that he shouted to close the door and pull the suspension bridge. But it was too late. Before the heavy suspension bridge could be pulled up, Li Yan had rushed up. Several soldiers tried to stop him, but they were chopped in two pieces by him.

Because the East Gate is not suitable for attack, Du Yuan has arranged more than a thousand people to be stationed here these days. After Li Yan rushed in, the soldiers behind him fought fiercely with the defenders. The number of people on both sides is equal. Although Dongmen was not taken by Li Yan for a while, it was impossible for Du Yuan to drive Li Yan out.

After a fierce battle for a while, both sides began to feel a little vibration of the earth under their feet. Obviously, a large group of people came here. Cao Jun, who was defending the city, suddenly felt depressed, while Li Yan and others were greatly morale. Brothers, support a little longer, General Guan and they will arrive soon!" Li Yan is still proficient in the face of Du Yuan, and he is still inspiring the soldiers while scufflering.

Sure enough, Li Yan's voice did not fall for a long time, and a group of people gradually killed the people who were fighting fiercely at the gate of the city. Du Yuan's martial arts were far worse than Li Yan's. It was extraordinary to hold on for so long. Now when he saw the arrival of a large number of reinforcements from the other party, he was inadvertently cut into the neck by Li Yan, and a big head suddenly flew to the sky.

"Du Yuan is dead, and the descender will not be killed!" Li Yan shouted loudly that the rest of Cao's soldiers were all afraid, and they gave up their weapons and surrendered one after another. A few stubborn people were also quickly besieged and annihiated.

"The square is really good. It's so soon for you to take down the East Gate." Zhao Feng will also arrive at this time. Unexpectedly, the East Gate has been taken by Li Yan. General Zhao is flattered, and he needs to win the other three as soon as possible!" Li Yan said.

"That's right!" Zhao Feng also nodded. At this time, Guan Yu's large army had also arrived, and now he arranged manpower to destroy the remnants of the enemy. It was not until the dawn appeared in the east that the Xuzhou army controlled Qiao County. Everyone was excited and didn't have a rest all night. They all went to the government office to report the results to Guan Yu.

"I didn't expect this Qiaojun City to take it so easily." Guan Yu also stroked Xu with a smile proudly. He looked at the people in the hall and said, "This time, he can succeed in one fell swoop. Bo Tao and Zheng Fang are the most meritorious. I have reported it to the eldest brother, and I expect a reply soon.

"Thank you, Second General!" Zhao Feng and Li Yan are both boxing. Zhao Feng was also slightly proud. He really didn't expect that Guan Yu, who was famous for his arrogance, valued him so much. In fact, Zhao Feng also forgot that although Guan Yu was arrogant, he still admired those who really had the ability. For example, Zhang Liao, Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu are all like this.

Guan Yu smiled for a while and suddenly frowned and said, "But the children of this Cao's clan are all in Qiao County. What's good? If you kill it, you will have a complete grudge with Cao. Now we in Yuzhou, there are only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to resist. If we let it go, we are afraid that they will make trouble here, which is really a headache.

The people in the hall suddenly talked about it. Some said that they would send troops to guard, and some said that they would use them to negotiate with Cao. Zhao Feng thought for a while and said, "Second General, why don't you raid their homes, and then send them out of the country as gifts and ask them to go to Xuchang to find Cao Qian. We don't kill them, but we don't want them.

"This is the best!" Everyone thought that this was the best way, and Guan Yu also handed over this important task to Zhao Feng. So in the next few days, Zhao Feng took people to raid Cao's seven aunts and eight aunts one by one. Almost all of the property was confiscated and returned to the public, leaving only a little toll for them to go to Xuchang to join Cao to. After working for half a month, the final result surprised Zhao Feng.

"140,000 stones of grain, 20,000 taels of gold and silver, and more than 2,000 private soldiers in the nursing home!" Guan Yu looked at Zhao Feng's bill and didn't say anything for a long time. After a long time, Guan Yu, who came to his mind, said, "In this way, we can recruit more soldiers."

not to mention that Guan Yu and Zhao Feng were very busy. After counting Xu Chang, Cao Qian was really angry when he saw his group of disgraced relatives and friends who were driven away from their hometown!

"Zhao Feng's little thief, how dare he do this!" Knowing that Po Qiaojun, copying the family is Zhao Feng's masterpiece, Cao Yan's resentment against him is no longer added. The Prime Minister was angry. Although Zhao Feng was abominable, it was not the time to send troops to Xuzhou. Guo Jia, who was beside him, hurriedly said.

"Well, I have my own sense of proportion. He said that if this man falls into my hands, I won't kill him, so I will raid his home and make him homeless!" Cao Shen said with hatred, and then he remembered something and asked a tall and thin middle-aged man behind him, "Wen Ruo, is there any movement in Jingzhou now?"

That man was Xun Yu. Seeing Cao Qian's question, he hurriedly replied, "No news for the time being. It seems that the people in Jingzhou are not willing to fight with Guan Yu for a few empty titles. By the way, Prime Minister, Liu Bei has asked Guan Yu to be the herdsman of Yuzhou for several days. What should I do now?

"Huh?" Cao Shen had another headache. Now there are only three counties in the three counties of Yuzhou that are not in Guan Yu's hands. In the face of Yuan Shao, he is really unable to take care of Guan Yu's side. Just agree first!" Cao Wei answered with some fatigue.

In the later city of Runan, "Poral Guan Yu as the herdsman of Yuzhou, leading the left general, here!" The eunuch's unique shrill voice sounded in the empty Taishou's house. Long live, long live!" A large number of people knelt in the hall and answered in unison.

"Congratulations to the second general!" Zhao Feng and others hugged Guan Yu one after another, and Guan Yu also changed his cold and arrogant smile to return the gift. Although it is just an empty title, Guan Yu can now justly appoint officials from Yuzhou to govern one side. Of course, the main decision should be made by Liu Bei of Xuzhou.

So in the next few days, new officials were sent to various places in Yuzhou to take office. Sun Guan, the prime minister of the State of Lu, Hai, the prime minister of Pei, and Mi Fang, the prime minister of the State of Liang. These three people have been governing the place for more than a year, so there is no need to replace them. In the remaining counties, Li Yan was appointed as the governor of Chen County to prevent Cao Yan, but the governor of Qiao County was Chen Jiao, the former governor of Chen County, Hou Cheng was appointed as the governor of Xiangcheng, and Liu Pi was appointed as the governor of Ruyin. As for the governor of Runan, Liu Bei handed over the most important place to Zhao Feng to take care of it. As for the remaining county magistrates, Gong Cao and other official positions, they were sent to take office one by one. And Liao Hua, Hao Meng and others also got a miscellaneous general.

Zhao Feng said to Guan Yu in private: "Now Yuzhou is initially determined, and the foundation is unstable. Cao Jian had no time to take care of Yuzhou in the face of Yuan Shao, a giant; Liu Biao in the west, was more than enough to make progress, and he didn't have to worry about it. All we have to do is to take advantage of this rare leisure time to improve the people's livelihood and armaments of Yuzhou, and connect with Xuzhou to echo each other. Only when the world changes can we be prepared. Guan Yu thought so, so the next day, Guan Yu was in charge of the military. Jian Yong, Zhao Feng and others were busy with civil affairs, but they were also full and busy.

Due to Zhao Feng's plan to seize Qiao County, it took Guan Yu less than a month to actually pacve down the whole Yuzhou. At this time, it is the spring equinox, and there are still about three months before the summer grain harvest. Although new soldiers have been recruited and exiles have been gathered to open fields to support the people, in addition to Peiguo and other places that have long been stable before, only Chen County under Chen Jiao's treatment can be self-sufficient this year. As for the soldiers, after the recruitment of Liu Pi and others, plus the recruited recruits, there are nearly 100,000 soldiers in the whole of Yuzhou. But if you want to be trained as a talent, you still need to pretend. The training of ancient soldiers took about half a year, and now it is only four months away from summer. Zhao Feng is estimated to be trained as a county soldier at most.

Zhao Feng knew that Yuan Shu would be emperor this year. The book does not say when he will be the emperor, but at that time, he said that he gathered 300,000 soldiers. It should be that he had just collected food to gather so many people. In other words, when Yuan Shu became emperor, Liu Bei still needed to rely on the current Xuzhou army to fight against him. The Yuzhou army could not count on it for the time being. It is estimated that he could only help defend the place at that time.

What Zhao Feng didn't know was that the dark tide in Jingzhou City, which he ignored at this moment, was also surging. In the lobby of Jingzhou government office, a middle-aged general was saying to the old man sitting on the throne: "Lord, since the court has the will to let General Zhongye serve as the governor of Runan, this is a good opportunity for me to expand my territory in Jingzhou. I don't know why the lord hesitates?" This person is none other than Cai Mao, the governor of the Jingzhou Water Army and Liu Biao's brother-in-law.

"Governor Cai received Wen Ping's kindness, but Wen Ping is just a martial artist. He has been loved by the Lord to be a general in Jingzhou. How dare he think about it again?" A strong man in his thirties opposite him got up and thanked him. He is the Wenpin, known as the first general in Jingzhou. Of course, Zhao Feng sneered at this title. Although Wen Ping is not a bucket like Pan Feng, he is indeed inferior to Huang Zhong and Wei Yan.

The reason why Wen Ping refused Cai Mao's seemingly kind proposal was also his intention. Now the power of Jingzhou is gradually taken over by Cai Mao's family, the Cai family, and the Kai family of the Kailiang and the Kaiyue brothers. The two families are in charge of military affairs and the other in charge of civil affairs, and the same party is almost all departments. In addition to Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, who can make them restrain themselves, the first general in Jingzhou, can make them restrain themselves. If you go to Runan to take office now, it is estimated that your power will be uprooted in less than half a year.

Everyone in the hall said their own reason, and only one person was silent. Liu Biao, who was in the main position, saw this person and asked with a slightly relaxed expression, "Ber, what do you think?" This person is from Mubin, Jingzhou.

"Lord, this is clearly Cao's anniperation. He was afraid that Liu Bei and Guan Yu would be unfavorable to him after occupying Yuzhou, so he wanted to use the empty title of Runan Taishou to let us fight with Guan Yu so that he could make a profit. Yi Ji laughed.

"That being said, if you don't even dare to move, isn't it funny?" On the other side, a scribe with ulterior motives countered that he was the eldest brother of the kui brothers, kui kui kui zirou. Like Cai Mao, he can't wait for Wenpin to leave Jingzhou.

"General Zhongye is the pillar of Jingzhou. How can he move disorderly? What's more, Yi Ji paused before he continued, "At present, Jiangdong Sun Ce always disturbs me in Jingzhou to avenge his father Sun Jian. If General Zhongye is not here, how can he resist it? Hearing this, everyone was silent, including Cai Mao and the brothers.

"If that's the case, let's ignore it for the time being." Liu Watch looked at everyone with nothing to say for a moment, so he was a little relieved, but he felt a trace of fatigue in his heart.

At this moment, another person came to report: "Master, the lieutenant of Shanyang County suddenly left an official seal and resigned. However, he also took more than a thousand people and went to Yuzhou to Guan Yu!"

"Wo!" There was another uproar in the lobby that had just calmed down.
