Chapter 190 Commendation
The four counties in Jiangdong took three months and were pacified.
The entire Yangzhou area is completely controlled by the Yuan family.
But the war is far from over, on the contrary, it has just begun.
First, Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, took Huang Zu as his general, and brought a total of more than 30,000 water and land troops along the Han River to enter Shaxian, Jiangxia, and then went up the Shuo River and approached the Wankou, an important town in Lujiang, to force the county to govern Wancheng.
Huang Zhong, the defender of Yuan army, naturally knew the importance of Wankou to his army, so he also sent his troops to defend himself with all his might and withstand waves of fierce attacks with a small amount of troops.
But the advantage of military strength also makes the battle extremely difficult.
In a critical moment, Huang Zhong had to urgently ask for help one after another, sending the letters to Jiangdong Daily and Yuan Yao to request reinforcements.
...
With the emergency of Lujiang, since the counties in Jiangdong have been pacified, Yuan Yao is naturally unwilling to delay the time. He has decided to immediately send a main army to cross the river to reinforce.
But before leaving, the government affairs and people's livelihood governance in Jiangdong must be properly arranged, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of effort to conquer it?
After pondering for a long time, the right candidate for stabilizing Jiangdong was quickly finalized in Yuan Yao's mind.
He was transferred to Hefei and ordered Liu Fu to come and take charge of Jiangdong.
Liu Fu, in his original history, was ordered by the imperial court to serve as the governor of Yangzhou. At that time, Yuan Shu was defeated and caused the Jianghuai disaster to the point where the people were hungry and food were empty.
But even such a tragic situation seemed to have changed in Yangzhou in less than ten years after Liu Fu took office.
All regions have regained their vitality.
From this, it is also obvious that Liu Fu does have the ability to govern the military and political affairs of a state.
After thinking about it, Yuan Yao quickly wrote down the report on the memorial. Hefei ordered Liu Fu to be the governor of Yangzhou and the governor of the four counties of Jiangdong.
Immediately, the appointment list of county magistrates of the other counties was written one after another.
Wu Jing was appointed as the prefect of Danyang and Sun Ben was appointed as the prefect of Wujun.
After thinking for a long time, Yuan Yaoru wrote.
Wu Jing and Sun Ben once resigned from the crowd to rebel against Liu Yao in order to respond to their own side. If they were not rewarded, they might have a great impact on Yuan Yao's reputation for seeking talents if they were spread in the future.
The next member of the prefect, Yuan Yao, thought about it, and then gave it to He Qi.
He was familiar with history and knew that in the original history, He Qi also stationed the Sun family in Huili County for many years, and made military achievements in attacking Shanyue many times.
What's more, He Qi is a local member of the community. He can quickly stabilize the rear and win people's hearts with him as the county magistrate.
Next, it is about the rewards of civil and military officials under Zhou Tai, Zhou Yu, Huang Zhong, Deng Dang, Jiang Qin, Zhou Cang, Jiang Gan, Liu Ye and others.
He recorded all of them on the memorial table.
But when thinking about Sun Ce, I couldn't help but feel a little headache.
On the one hand, Sun Ce also made military achievements in this pacification of Jiangdong, and it is naturally unreasonable not to give him any rewards.
But what position should be given to be reasonable?
After all, Sun Ce is no better than others. He has great ambitions. Until now, Yuan Yao has never dared to let Sun Ce stand alone and garrison the troops.
After thinking for a long time, Yuan Yao still recommended Sun Ce as the commander of Huaiyi and followed the army to fight.
He decided to keep it by his side and take care of it at any time, and not to create opportunities for independence on his own.
After the preview form was recorded one by one, Yuan Yao quickly sent someone to Shouchun and submitted it to his father Yuan Shu for review and approval.
After settled all matters, Yuan Yao then led the generals and 40,000 main troops to cross the river and rushed to Lujiang.
At this time, Zhou Yu led a side army to lead Lu Meng, Deng Dang, Zulang, Xu Sheng and others to run westward.
His target is directly aimed at the Chaisang Tun in Yuzhang, which is adjacent to Jiangxia County.
This is naturally due to Yuan Yao's arrangement.
Yuan Yao knew that now that Liu Biao appointed Huang Zu to garrison Jiangxia, he would naturally inevitably have conflicts with the Jingzhou army in the future and even wars would occur.
Then, in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the significance of the navy is of great importance.
Yuan Yao ordered Zhou Yu to station in Chaisang to be extremely obvious. He asked him to station in Chaisang to be responsible for competing with the Jingzhou army on the one hand, and on the other hand, what is more important is naturally to build warships and train elite Jiangdong Navy.
Since ancient times, the people of Wu were good at building ships, so the shipbuilding industry in Wu was extremely developed.
An elite navy not only requires the navy soldiers' combat power and quality, but also requires the configuration of many excellent warships.
It is obvious that Yuan Yao handed over this important task to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu naturally knew Yuan Yao’s intentions and breathed a sigh of relief.
This is the first time since he was in charge of his troops, he has been alone and stationed in the army.
He certainly cannot disappoint Yuan Yao.
...
Everything is ready.
The main force of Yuan's army also slowly crossed the river in batches and began to rush to Lujiang.
Just when Yuan's army arrived in Lujiang, the messenger quickly arrived at the capital Shouchun after running wildly.
When the left general Yuan Shu received the memorial written by Yuan Yao, he was also overjoyed and quickly summoned all the civil and military officials to congratulate the general's mansion.
"Everyone, this is a memorial sent by Yao'er in an expedition."
"Our army crossed the river and fought for three months. With Yaoer's coordination, the four counties in Jiangdong have now been pacified."
Just finished speaking.
Led by the Chief Secretary Yang Hong, a sound of praise suddenly echoed in the mansion.
"Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord."
"Since the young master led the army, he will win the battle and defeat the attack. He has never been defeated. I am afraid that even if he is a good general of ancient times, he will be like this!"
"Yes, yes, the talent of the young master, even if Han Xin is reborn, he can still fight!"
For a moment, there was a sound of praise in the palace.
At this time, Yuan Shu lived aside, hearing the praises of everyone, and also stroking his beard on his jaw with his hands, and a smile on his face, obviously extremely excited.
Yes, my son is so outstanding, how can a father not be happy?
What's more, more than a year ago, the playboy who was ignorant and only knew how to hang out all day long.
Now seeing the transformation so big, Yuan Shu was naturally extremely happy.
A few praises came to an end.
Then, everyone began to discuss matters.
The first serious look appeared on the face of the left general Yuan Shu, and said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, now the entire Yangzhou area has been pacified. I will decide to take my own as the governor of Yangzhou so that I can better governor and protect the common people."
At this time, Yuan Shu said first.
At this moment, he did not intend to submit a letter to the court to ask for a title, but decided to proclaim himself.
With the successive victory, his mind became more and more ready to move, and his inner ambitions gradually expanded.
Proclaiming himself as the governor of Yangzhou is a signal.
After hearing this, everyone would naturally not get into trouble in this matter anymore, so they naturally agreed.
Chapter completed!
