Chapter 172 Entering Yangzhou, Entering the Central Plains

After arriving in Wancheng, Zhou You formally appointed Jia Xu as Nanyang Chief Bookkeeper to assist Zhang Ji in managing Nanyang's military and political affairs. Jia Xu was so trustworthy that he was surprised and moved, feeling that he would die for his confidant.

Seeing that Zhou You even let Jia Xu partner with him, Zhang Ji also admired Zhou You, and became more convinced of Zhou You.

Therefore, even if Zhou You arranged for their uncles and nephews to garrison in Rangcheng instead of Wancheng, Zhang Ji did not have any opinion, because Zhou You also told him that Rangcheng would be his bridgehead to attack Hanzhong in the future.

Lu Bu was also arranged by Zhou You to take his men and horses to Runan, but whether it was Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew who went to Rangcheng, or Lu Bu who went to Runan, they were all asked by Zhou You to keep them and the families of the main generals under his command in Wancheng. .

In this regard, the others are fine, they can understand Zhou You's concerns about the newly surrendered and reused generals, but how can Lu Bu be willing to part with Diao Chan?

But everyone else acquiesced, and under Chen Gong's persuasion, Diao Chan also consoled him reasonably, but Lu Bu, who was not very happy, left Diao Chan behind and led the troops to Runan alone.

However, Zhou You also asked Chen Gong to go to Runan with Lu Bu, and became the master book of Runan, who was also Lu Bu's military adviser.Zhou You is well aware of Lu Bu's recklessness, and sometimes he is naive and innocent. With Chen Gong by his side, Zhou You can rest assured that he can go to Runan.

And Lu Bu is indeed a sentimental person, he thinks too much of Diao Chan, so as long as Diao Chan is in Wancheng, Zhou You will not worry about Lu Bu running away, or having a rebellious heart.It can be said that with Diao Chan in hand, it is equivalent to pinching Lu Bu's seven inches.

As for Hu Jinghui, after Lu Bu and Chen Gong went to Runan, he could also distract himself from sweeping Hanoi and Henan counties in the eastern part of Guanzhong, and then waited for an opportunity to capture Chenliu County in Yanzhou, which was close at hand.

During the overnight tour in Wancheng, I also took the opportunity to call Zhao Xin, who was the guard of Wancheng, as well as Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu's nephew and Jia Xu, and talked about the situation in Hanzhong, and Zhao Xin sent people to Hanzhong to spread peace. matter of Tao.

Knowing that Zhou You sent people to Hanzhong to spread the Tao of Taiping, Jia Xu frowned, knowing that Zhou You had intended to win Hanzhong, and was touched by the fact that Zhou You discussed such a confidential and important matter when they first came to work, so he offered to express his willingness. To travel around and seek to seize Hanzhong.

Jia Xu believes in Zhouyou's strategy. With him, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew, I believe that Hanzhong can be won without too much worry.At that time, it can be said that Yizhou, which is almost trapped in all ways out, will not be in the pocket of Zhou You?Sooner or later, it will become his material base in the rear.

In the early morning of the next day, he led only [-] cavalry to continue his southward tour. Three days later, he escorted Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xiehe and his ministers to Xiangyang, and officially moved the capital to Xiangyang.

Zhou You also served as Sikong, driving and cavalry general military, overviewing power, serving as Jingzhou shepherd, and led Sili Xiaowei, Yuzhou shepherd, and Yangzhou shepherd.

In the same way, Zhou You also sealed the feudal lords in the name of the imperial court, so they had no choice but to accept it, so they had to acquiesce that Zhou You coerced the emperor to order the vassals.

When Yuan Shao in the north was busy seizing Bingzhou, and Cao Cao was also fighting Tao Qian to capture Xuzhou, Zhou You personally commanded the navy and entered Yangzhou along the Yangtze River through Jiangxia...

Zhou You first stayed in Chaisang, and met Hua Xin, the new governor of Yuzhang, who was welcoming the emperor's edict. He continued to go up the river and met Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang, who also obeyed the emperor's edict, in Zongyang. Yuan Shu, who had captured Shouchun, finally led the elite soldiers to land in Liyang, and went north to take Fuling and Quanji.

Lu Kang marched into Chengde, and approached Shouchun...and Lu Bu was also ordered to march from Ruyin to attack Xiacai...Three roads attacked Jiujiang, and soon Yuan Shu was forced to flee in embarrassment, and led the remnants into Guangling, Xuzhou within the county.

Quickly sweeping and conquering the entire Jiujiang Zhouyou, he ordered Cai Mao to lead the navy to continue to march to Dantu, and at the same time lead the elite cavalry to meet with Lu Bu, and took the opportunity to chase and kill Yuan Shu and went straight to Guangling. After destroying Yuan Shu's remaining troops, he occupied Guangling.

After receiving the news that Zhou You quickly pacified Jiujiang, killed Yuan Shu, and captured Guangling in one fell swoop, Sheng Xian, the prefect of Wujun, Wang Lang, the prefect of Kuaiji, and Zhou Shang, the prefect of Danyang, all quickly chose to join.

Since then, the six counties of Yangzhou have been established!Zhou Youti commanded Jingxiang, Yuzhou, Yangzhou and Sili four prefectures, with half of the country in his hands, and his reputation was greatly shaken for a while.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou You sent Wang Lang to meet Tao Qian in Xuzhou in person, and said that Tao Qian, who had been defeated by Cao Cao in a row, would join Tao Qian, who knew he could not protect the environment and the people.After all, now that Zhou You is very powerful, and he coerces the emperor to make the princes, and submitting to him means submitting to the Emperor Han and the court, and Tao Qian is not ashamed.

Knowing that Tao Qian has joined Zhou You, one can imagine Cao Cao's expression!The house leak happened to rain overnight. Under the plan of Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, the prefect of Dongjun, and others welcomed Hu Jinghui into Yanzhou, and Zhou You and Lu Bu also quickly led their troops northward. In a blink of an eye, Cao Cao only had the territory of Dong'e and other counties left.

Cao Cao, who knew that the general situation was over, knew that there was no chance of rising between Zhou You and Yuan Shao, so he chose to surrender Zhou You after careful consideration.

Zhou You took advantage of the situation to mobilize Yuzhou's soldiers, and He Hu Jinghui's army totaled more than [-] troops. They took all of Yanzhou's land, and the troops headed straight for Jizhou and Qingzhou, which also made Qingzhou governor Kong Rong and Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang follow the trend.

All of a sudden, all the land south of the Yellow River was left to travel around, most of the world was settled, and even Yuan Shao, who had already won Bingzhou, couldn't sit still.

It never occurred to him that Zhou You, who was originally dominating the south, could take down the four states of Yangzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Qingzhou so quickly after winning the Son of Heaven, almost without bloodshed. Bingzhou went through a lot of twists and turns, could it really be the destiny?

In fact, even Zhou You himself didn't expect to be able to go so smoothly. It seems that the righteous name of the Son of Heaven is really very useful!If there is no emperor in hand, how can Yangzhou's Hua Xin, Sheng Xian, Lu Kang, Wang Lang and others, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian and Qingzhou governor Kong Rong easily join?

However, Zhou You, who led the troops to fight for thousands of miles, although there were not many casualties among the soldiers under his command, they were quite exhausted.Plus, getting so many territories all at once, the land of four states!Official appointments, etc., there are too many things waiting for Zhou You to go back and preside over the overall situation!

Moreover, without sufficient preparation, it is not so easy to go north and defeat Yuan Shao in one fell swoop.After all, Yuan Shao, who just won Bingzhou, is not weak with the support of Hebei gentry.

Therefore, he arranged for the generals to travel around Hanoi, Yanzhou, Qingzhou and other important towns, and ordered Cai Mao to lead the main force of the navy to go north to Qingzhou for a tour, that is, to go back to Xiangyang directly.

Next, Zhou You must properly integrate and digest the territory and troops he has laid down, and take Hanzhong and Yizhou to stabilize the southwest rear. If he can take the opportunity to conquer Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou, it will be even better.

At the same time, Zhou You also wanted to give Yuan Shao some time to deal with Gongsun Zan in Youzhou with peace of mind.Regardless of whether they fight to the detriment of both, or let Yuan Shao eliminate Gongsun Zan, they will be able to weaken and reduce their enemies after all!
