The fifteen years of Jian'an were generally peaceful.

It seems that after two years of turmoil, the princes unanimously decided to recuperate and stop fighting.

Sun Quan, Marquis of Wu, moved his seat to Jiankang.

Then he vigorously promoted the method of farming to replenish the treasury. On the surface, he seemed to be unwilling to conflict with Cao Cao. But in private, he kept making small moves. In Changsha and Guiyang, conflicts between Sun and Cao continued. But overall, they were all small moves.

A large-scale conflict, or testing the other side's bottom line, did not lead to a large-scale war.[]

"Jiangdong Blue Eyes, do you want to stand alone on the fire?"

Yedu Royal City, inside Zichen Pavilion.

Cao Cao sneered and threw the letter aside.

"Biyan'er persuaded Gu to proclaim himself emperor and said that he would serve Gu as his master.

Everyone in the world knows how ambitious this beast is. If he wants to make him the target of thousands of people and the target of public criticism... his heart can be put to death."

The ministers on the side were all silent.

Sun Quan persuaded Cao Cao to proclaim himself emperor, but it was definitely out of good intentions.

But……

Guo Jia secretly glanced at Xun Yu, only to find that Xun Yu had a cold expression and said nothing.

In the middle of the year, Xun Yu came to Yecheng from Xudu to pay homage to the deputy prime minister. Previously, Xun Yu had been unwilling to come to Yecheng to take up a post, which made Cao Cao somewhat unhappy. This sudden change in attitude made Cao Cao a little suspicious.

However, Guo Jia knew that Xun Yu came not because his feelings towards the Han Dynasty had changed, but because he had no choice but to do so.

The relationship between the Xun family and the Cao family has become increasingly close in recent years.

The death of the older generation also made the Xun family feel more and more pressure. The Xun family is now dominated by Xun Yu and Xun Yan. The death of Xun Chen did cause the Xun family to suffer a lot, but

But it doesn't hurt the roots.

Of the two brothers Xun Yu, Xun Yan is too strong and unsuitable for the position of head of the family.

So after repeated discussions, Xun Yu was promoted to the position of the head of the family. Not being the head of the family, and being the head of the family are completely different concepts. In his personal feelings, Xun Yu was more inclined to the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, and hoped that the Han Dynasty

ZTE. But after he ascended to the position of head of the family, the future of the Xun family rested on his shoulders.

He can no longer judge right and wrong based on personal preferences, but must consider the interests of the family.

The resurgence of the Han Dynasty?

Now it has become a joke!

How much thought did Liu Zhang, a clan member of the Han Dynasty, have about reviving the Han Dynasty?

In the past, Xun Yu could have extravagant hopes and fantasies; but now, he must face this problem with a calm attitude. Cao and Xun are inseparable... With the growth of other families in Yingchuan, if the Xun family does not

Make a choice, and you may end up facing a brutal purge...

Xun Yu knew very well what the result of the cleaning would be.

Since you have followed Cao Cao, you can only continue to follow him!

After repeated thoughts, Xun Yu finally decided to give up his original unrealistic ideas and devote himself to the Cao Wei camp.

Xun Yu's changes were a huge blow to the already shaky Han Dynasty.

The Han Emperor no longer had any strength, so he still had to fight against the increasingly powerful Cao Cao. Fortunately, Cao Cao treated him well and provided him with everything he needed. He was placed under house arrest in the huge Xudu Palace, preventing him from contact with the outside world.

The entire Xudu, from the General of the Guard Xiahou Dun, to the Shangshu Ling Dong Zhao, down to the city gate captain Wang Mai, are all Cao Cao's men. No matter how powerful the Han Emperor is, there is nothing he can do in this prison.

Guo Jia was worried that Xun Yu might say something inappropriate.

Fortunately, Xun Yu didn't react at all and just sat beside him without saying a word.

Cao Cao closed his eyes and seemed to be deep in thought.

This year, a lot of things have happened.

The government army system was successfully implemented in the four states. At the end of the year, Caozhou also started to promote the government army, and it is expected that the plan will be completed this year. The implementation of the Bingzhou system was the smoothest. In half a year, Deng Ji built more than 80 military buildings and built

Twenty-six military towns formed an extremely complete structure...

Relatively speaking, Youzhou is in some trouble.

The obstruction of local powerful forces made it difficult to promote the military system.

Cao Peng killed more than ten local gentry in a row, which caused a lot of troubles. However, he was suppressed by Cao Peng with more cruel methods in the end. The powerful Yuyang and Youbeiping counties finally bowed their heads, and the military system was established.

Implement.

Only Cao Peng had such ruthless methods.

It is said that in two days, he wiped out nearly ten powerful families in Yuyang and beheaded more than a thousand people, which frightened everyone in Youzhou. Of course, such cruel methods will inevitably be attacked by countless people.

.

Xudu Daily published for more than a month criticizing Cao Peng's brutal methods.

Finally, under Cao Cao's instructions, the emerging Yedu newspaper industry began to fight back, which finally diverted attention.

The advantage of this matter is the implementation of the military system in Youzhou Prefecture.

The disadvantage is that Cao Peng's reputation is even worse.

But to Cao Peng, this was nothing. To Cao Cao, Cao Peng's self-slander was in line with his thoughts. He felt that Cao Peng was sensible and understood things, so he was definitely a pillar...

In the spring of the 16th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao issued an edict to worship Cao Peng as the new Marquis of Wu!

Xinwu Township, formerly Hexi County, was officially upgraded to Xinwu County and became the location of Cao Peng's food town. This was also the first general in the Cao Wei Group to be worshiped as a county prince. After Cao Peng worshiped Xinwu Hou, he suddenly

Keep a low profile.

In March of the 16th year, Cao Cao received Cao Peng's letter.

"The Gongsun family in Liaodong is stubborn, and Xin Wuhou has decided to use troops against Liaodong. At the same time, he will unite with the Lu family and the Han Dynasty to attack Goguryeo. If this battle is successful, Youzhou can add another county. But in this way, Youzhou area

It is inevitable that officials will be vacant, what recommendations can you make? If Goguryeo in Liaodong is certain, it will inevitably have a lot of involvement with Fuyu. Therefore, the candidates for vacancies in Liaodong must be cautious."

Before he finished speaking, Xun Yu stood up.

"I recommend a person who can take on important responsibilities."

"who?"

"That's the governor of the Wei army and the captain of Yedu, Bu Zhao Bu Zishan."

"oh?"

"Zi Shan left the post of Haixi Zhonglang General, Hexi Prefect, Wuwei Prefect... He is familiar with foreign customs. This person has good knowledge and is more proficient in military affairs. He can go out to control Liaodong. Moreover, the situation in Liaodong is complicated due to the implementation of Youzhou Prefecture's troops. Shan

With Wenyuan alone, he may not be able to catch up. Zishan has also participated in the promotion of the northwest army and has rich experience. With him stationed in Liaodong, the overall situation in Liaodong can be determined, and Youzhou will no longer be in chaos..."

Guo Jia said: "But Zishan is the superior county, and the salary is really two thousand stone.

Since Liaodong is only in Xiajun, wouldn't it be inappropriate to send him there? After all, he has been working hard in Weijun for two years. He was also responsible for Huanlang's private sale of eight-niu crossbows last year. If he is sent there at this time,

In Liaodong, I'm afraid some people will say that the king is trying to suppress Bu Zishan for his wife."

"That's simple. If it's just a question of rank, you can refer to the settings of Wuling Daxing Mansion.

It is logical to set up a Daxingfu in Liaodong, with Bai Zishan as the governor, who also has a real salary of two thousand stone, and also serves as the governor of Liaodong. Don't forget that Liaodong is located on the frontier, surrounded by Lu's Han Kingdom and Fuyu Kingdom. Even if In order to conquer Goguryeo, we also have to face contact with the local people...

This Daxing Mansion is the most suitable official office."

Since Daxingfu was implemented on a trial basis in Wuling, the results have been remarkable.

With the cooperation of local officials, Cao Zhang quickly unfolded the situation. King Ping of Samoko recruited 3,000 Wudang flying troops and received excellent treatment. Many Wuling barbarians responded, and Cao Zhang took advantage of the situation and recruited 8,000 more people as backup. .The entire Daxing Mansion recruited tens of thousands of troops, causing the situation in Jingnan to change accordingly.

With Cao Zhang's success, the scale of Daxing Mansion is also constantly changing.

It integrates military, diplomatic and various affairs into one, and is a comprehensive functional agency.

Cao Cao thought about it and felt that it would be most appropriate to set up a Daxingfu in Liaodong.

So, he nodded and said: "In this case, I will appoint Bu Zhi as the governor of Liaodong Daxingfu and the post of prefect of Liaodong."

Immediately, Cao Cao changed the topic, "However, Xin Wu Houyan wants to go to Lu Han to supervise the battle and preside over the battle of Goguryeo... Gu Yi believes that this is feasible and can strengthen Lu Han's surrender. However, the Five Army Protectorate still has Someone needs to take charge. Marquis Xin Wu recommends Pang Tong to temporarily take charge of the Protectorate. What do you think?"

Guo Jiaxunyu and others looked at each other, cupped their hands and said, "This proposal is feasible."

"oh?"

"Pang Tong was born in the Pang family in Lumen Mountain, Jingzhou. His father, Pang Ji, must have impressed the king deeply.

His younger brother Pang Lin, who is now the governor of Xiangyang, is quite calm. And Pang Tong's talents are even more outstanding, and he is known as the "phoenix chick" in Jingzhou. Your Majesty, may you still remember that Sima Decao once said that if you have a sleeping dragon or a phoenix chick, you will win one? Can the world be at peace? This Pang Tong is Feng Chu. Pang Tong used to be the prefect of Hexi County and is now the Prime Minister of the Protectorate.

It was he who single-handedly implemented the Hexi Prefecture soldiers.

Previously, Xin Wuhou had written a book called "Admonishment on the Military System of the Mansion", which was also written by Pang Tong.

But if you rashly serve as the protector of the capital, it may not be appropriate. It is better to worship Pang Tong as the eunuch of the protector of the five armies and pretend to be the military officer of Youzhou Prefecture. This can stop the public from talking about Youyou, and it is also very suitable for Pang Shiyuan."

This eunuch is different from the 'eunuchs' of later generations.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, eunuch was an official name. And those 'father-in-laws' were called eunuchs, eunuchs...

Cao Cao thought about it and thought it was feasible.
To be continued...
