"Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian has passed away, and the one who replaced Tao Qian as Xuzhou Mu is Chu Zimou from Langya Kingdom!"

The first foreign state animal husbandry appeared, and the entire Eastern Han District was a sensation!

Dong Zhuo openly admitted that Chutian became Xuzhou shepherd. In addition to being beyond the reach of the whip and the boat was done, he also had complex emotions such as kindness and fear for Chutian.

In any case, Dong Zhuo recognized Chutian's strength and possessed the strength to rule a state.

"Xuzhou was set in two wars, and at such a speed of development... I must win Western Liaoning as soon as possible. Once Liaodong and Western Liaoning are all owned by me, I can enter Youzhou."

Mingguan, the prefect of Liaodong, found that he could not keep up with the speed of Chutian. The population of Xuzhou was much larger than that of Liaodong, and the northern Jiangsu plain was suitable for farming. After farming for a few years, the food supply for the ten-year campaign was all there.

In Beihai Kingdom, Zhao Gongzi and Dorgon reached an agreement, Dorgon led the remnants of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army to surrender to Zhao Gongzi and became Zhao Gongzi's general.

"I only have one Beihai country, and he is about to have five Xuzhou countries, which is difficult to compete with. Dorgon, you are the vanguard, attacking Donglai County, I want to have all the land of Donglai County in three months. , I can make you a general, a marquis, and a thousand households."

Zhao Gongzi took the lead in consuming Dorgon's troops.

Jimo was occupied by Zhao Gongzi, and Dorgon had to act as the vanguard to attack Donglai County in the face of this alien lord who could control him.

The lords of the other twelve prefectures and the Protectorate of the Western Regions were forced to speed up the pace of expansion, unwilling to lag behind Chutian too much, otherwise they would not be able to compete with the Xuzhou army in the future.

Chutian defeated the 70,000-strong army and completely wiped out the main force of the coalition army. The only large-scale resistance force was only 30,000 people in Tancheng.

Even the famous general Le Yi can't make a comeback.

At present, the biggest lord of Xuzhou is Chutian, who owns Langya Kingdom, Donghai Kingdom, and Xiapi Kingdom controlled by Chen Gui and Chen Deng. The five counties of Xuzhou, except Pengcheng and Guangling County, are all within the sphere of influence of Chutian.

Chutian continued to besiege Leyi. Compared with the territory of Xiapi, Chutian wants to get Le Yi even more. Obtaining Le Yi is equivalent to obtaining a hundred thousand heroes.

"There is only Tancheng left in the entire East China Sea. Le Yi cannot fly. Send an ultimatum to Tancheng. Those who do not surrender within three days will no longer be forgiven, and all will be executed!"

Chutian encircled Tancheng into an isolated city in order to capture Le Yi.

a few days ago,

Chutian has promoted Xuzhou Mu and General An Dong, replacing Lang Ya Xiang and General Fu Bo.

【Name】: General Anton

[Description]: One of the Si'an Generals (Andong, Anxi, Annan, Anbei)

[Effect]: Attack power and defense power of your own troops +1%. When fighting in Qing, Yan, Xu, and Yangzhou, troops attack power and defense power +1.2%, and morale recovery speed +5%.

General An Dong's main responsibilities lie in the military affairs of the governors of Qing, Yan, Xu, and Yang. There are additional bonuses when conquesting the four states. General An Dong can set up his subordinates, such as Chang Shi, Sima, joining the army, as well as the chief clerk, meritorious officer, subordinate governor, subordinate clerk and so on.

In addition to General An Dong, Chutian also has the official position of Xuzhou Shepherd, and he can set up state-level subordinate officials such as Biejia Engagement and Zhizhong Engagement. In "Lord", the state shepherd can also set up a number of subordinate officials.

Coupled with the loss of prestige of the imperial court, state shepherds can also set up prefects of various counties.

【Name】: Xuzhou Mu

[Description]: Chief Executive of Xuzhou

[Effect]: Administrative efficiency of all cities in Xuzhou +5, economic, agricultural, and cultural development speed +3%; the attraction to special talents and Xuzhou aristocratic families has increased slightly, and the decline in popular sentiment and public security has decreased; soldiers from Xuzhou are loyal Not easy to fall.

Before the complete pacification of Xuzhou, Chutian had not yet made a list of subordinate officials. At that time, by virtue of military merit, everyone will be named generals, captains, and prefects.

Chutian's subordinates were divided into two groups, the elders of Langya and the Xuzhou family.

The ultimatum reached Tancheng, and the guards were panic-stricken.

Tancheng became an isolated city and could not be defended.

With reinforcements and without reinforcements, for the defenders, there is a world of difference.

Fang Xuanling personally observed the city defense and made a judgment: "Within three days, the city of Tan will definitely be destroyed without attack."

The shrewd state of siege is not to attack by force, but to attack the heart.

The strongest fortresses are often breached from within.

Sure enough, according to what Fang Xuanling said, in the middle of the night on the second day, an infighting broke out among the defenders of Tancheng.

"The judge's judgment is really accurate."

Chutian can hear the movement of Tancheng even outside the city.

However, he still did not storm Tancheng, because there was no need to wait for the defenders in the city to surrender.

The commander of the 30,000 defenders in the city is Le Yi, but they are Tao Qian's soldiers and horses, and the object of their allegiance is Tao Qian. Knowing that Tao Qian is dead, he has no fighting spirit.

Le Yi tried his best to suppress the 30,000 defenders, not only the defenders but also the aliens trapped in Tancheng. The aliens were more reluctant to defend than the defenders.

As long as you surrender, you have a chance to live.

Yiren led his men to attack Le Yi and his lord, trying to capture Le Yi.

Catch Le Yi, not only can you survive, but you can also get a thousand taels of gold!

During the civil war in the city, Xia Xia Liang, who was in the military camp outside the city, heard the movement and asked Li Xiuning, who came to guard, "What happened outside the camp?"

Li Xiuning replied, "The defenders in the city are in disarray."

Summer coolly rubs the ends of his hair: "You can enter the city tomorrow."

On the third day, Tancheng raised the white flag, and the last county seat of the East China Sea surrendered to the newly appointed Xuzhou Muchutian.

The famous Warring States general Le Yi was bound by Wuhua and sent to Chutian.

Chutian finally captured the opponent who almost frustrated him.

Le Yi has scars on his face and a gray head, apparently having fought fiercely with the rebels in last night's mutiny. Le Yi was a commander rather than a general, so he had no advantage in fierce skirmishes and was captured alive by the rebels.

"One thousand taels of gold, give them the number."

In order to accumulate prestige, Chutian did not mind getting Leyi with a thousand taels of gold.

If they renege on their promises and besiege the city in the future, no one will take the initiative to surrender.

"Where is the lord of Le Yi?"

"Killed by a stray arrow during a conflict."

Chutian could imagine the tragic infighting in the city last night.

In the infighting in Tancheng, more than 500 people were killed or injured, and the lord of Le Yi bore the brunt and was killed by the rebels.

In other words, Le Yi is now a leaderless general.

The problem is that Le Yi is somewhat resentful towards Chu Tian, ​​because his lord was indirectly killed by Chu Tian.

"General Le Yi almost defeated me that day, but was captured by me today, isn't it God's will?"

"I hate my teammates for being incompetent."

Le Yi thought of Song Jiang, who was defeated in the Battle of Xuzhou, and now betrayed by Xuzhou's aristocratic family and foreigners, how to be undefeated.

Even Han Xin and Bai Qi could only drink hatred under the premise of being restrained by their own people everywhere.

"If General Le Yi will serve me from now on, he can be General and take charge of one hundred thousand heroes!"

Chutian threw an olive branch.

He has an infantry commander, Zhou Yafu, who is good at defense. If he can recruit Le Yi, an infantry commander who is good at attacking, and equip them with an army of 100,000 troops, it will be enough to traverse Huanghuai!

However, Le Yi rejected his proposal: "I can't obey your orders."

These famous generals are really stubborn.

Chutian already has the status of the fourth and third princes and Xuzhou shepherd, but he still can't conquer Le Yi immediately.

"Generals can be outstanding, so it's not worth dying to die. You might as well calm down for a while."

Considering that Le Yi does not have such a stubborn sense of loyalty to the king, Chu Tian believes that if he is a smart person, he should know that the person who knows the current affairs is Junjie.

During the Warring States Period, there was a frequent flow of talents, and many generals had served for many countries. After the death of King Yan Zhao, Le Yi served for the State of Zhao because the new king did not trust him. At the same time, he was a minister of Yan and Zhao states.

"It's good to entertain General Le Yi with good wine and good food, so don't take it lightly."

Chu Tian coveted Le Yi's ability and could not regard Le Yi as an ordinary general. After Le Yi was under house arrest, everything was in accordance with the best specifications, giving Le Yi courtesy.

Some talents in the Warring States period paid more attention to the monarch's trust and reuse of their talents.

"The lord who opposes me, kill them all, and the rest will follow the agreement and let it go."

In order to persuade Tancheng to surrender, Chutian promised to let go of the past, but he did not let go of the main lord.

As for the lord's subordinates, they were grateful to Dade if they could survive, and did not dare to accuse Chutian.

Except for the lords who fled to Pengcheng State and Guangling County, the rest of the lords either died or fled, and the Xuzhou coalition forces no longer had the momentum they had before.

The crowd was awe-inspiring.

Chutian led his troops into the city and recruited 30,000 soldiers to surrender to Tancheng for his own use.

As the new Xuzhou shepherd, Chutian did not embarrass the Xuzhou army. At that time, they were their masters, and they were loyal to Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, and there was no fault at all. Now they recognize the new Xuzhou animal husband as the master, and they will fight for Chutian from now on.

"Fortunately, I listened to the counselor's words and did not continue to attack Tancheng. Otherwise, not only would I suffer heavy losses, but the 30,000 soldiers would be at least 10,000."

Chutian got the sweetness from it.

If the opponent can be forced to surrender without a fight, there is no need to consume troops to attack.

Fang Xuanling said: "If it weren't for the battle of Xuzhou, the main enemy force would be defeated, and the city would not be able to besiege the city calmly."

Chutian came to the county government office, added his name to the unowned stone tablet, and officially occupied Tancheng.

In addition, Xue Rengui divided his troops to pacify various places, and the wealthy East China Sea fell into the hands of Chu Tian. With the support of the Mi family of Donghai Kingdom and others, Chutian's foundation in Donghai Kingdom gradually became firm.

Langya country is undoubtedly the most fundamental stronghold of Chutian, because he started and accumulated in Langya country, and the people of various towns are very popular. The second is the East China Sea Kingdom, and the third is the Xiapi Kingdom, which is influenced by the Xuzhou family.

Fang Xuanling also suggested: "Xiacheng, Tancheng, and Xiapi are the cores of the three counties and states, and they must send confidants to govern them."

To lay down these sites, Chutian has to consider the candidates for the state ministers of the three counties.

The prime minister is equivalent to the chief executive of a county and has great military power in troubled times, so as to deal with the attacking enemy at any time.

Now that he has military power, it is necessary to consider who to send to serve as the prefect.

"Li Kui is appointed Prime Minister of Langya."

Chu Tian did not forget Li Kui, who has been silently dedicated behind his back. Li Kui used to be the prime minister of Zhongshan and Wei, so there is no problem with him being the prime minister of Langya.

According to the information, Zhao Gongzi of Beihai Kingdom is committed to unifying Qingzhou and will not go south to Langya Kingdom in a short time.

Chutian's main force will be stationed in Xiapi, and they will attack Pengcheng State and Guangling County, which have not yet surrendered, and can only leave Li Kui to guard the most important Langya State.

"Zang Ba and Sun Guan returned to Langya, and stationed in the northern counties and Dongwu County to guard against the Qingzhou army going south."

Although there were various indications that Young Master Zhao would not go south immediately, Chu Tian did not dare to relax, otherwise, Young Master Zhao suddenly changed his strategy and Chu Tian would be caught off guard.

"The candidate for Prime Minister Donghai..."

Chu Tian originally wanted to appoint Mi Zhu to be the prime minister of the East China Sea, but considering that Mi Zhu himself was a native of Qu County, East China Sea, it was inappropriate to use local people to manage the local family, and it was easy to form an independent force.

Fang Xuanling said: "Chen Gui from the state of Xiapi can be appointed as the Minister of the East China Sea. The Chen family has made great contributions to the capture of Xiapi City. The lord must reward them, otherwise people will not accept it. Using Xiapi people to govern the East China Sea can be slightly changed. The pattern of the aristocratic family can even cause conflicts between the aristocratic families in different counties."

"Very good."

Chu Tian really wanted to divide the vassals in a big way after he became Xuzhou shepherd in order to win people's hearts.

Chen Gui of the Chen family in Xiapi was idle at home and made a great contribution. Appointing as the prefect can appease them, and also reassure the aristocratic families in Xuzhou.

There are also candidates for Xiapi Xiang. Xiapi was most affected by Tao Qian's influence, and it was not the county that Chutian captured by force. The noble families of Xiapi did not feel his martial virtue, and they did not know the horror of the army of Langya.

The East China Sea Kingdom was subdued, and it was relatively easy to govern.

"You can make Miss Xia the prime minister of Xiapi. She should have a way to suppress the local family in Xiapi. Moreover, she has accumulated military merit, and only the prime minister can match the military merit."

"so be it."

Chutian didn't know whether she could suppress the nobles of Xiapi, but she did accumulate a lot of credit. If these credits could not be promoted, then other generals could not be promoted.

Fang Xuanling could not be the prime minister because Chutian wanted to appoint him to manage the affairs of a state, not a county.

The personal soldier with the order said: "Chen Gui and Chen Deng, please ask the lord to move the city of Xiapi!"

"The army is marching south, and there are still two counties that have not yet been pacified."

Chutian gave Mi Fang 5,000 soldiers to guard Tancheng, and personally led the army to continue down the Yihe River. The army heading south included 30,000 soldiers from Xuzhou and the captured Le Yi. Chu Tian valued Le Yi, and in order to prevent him from escaping, he sent a team of fifty people to house Le Yi, making it difficult for him to fly.

In Xiapi City, Chen Gui and Chen Deng saw the arrival of the army of Langya, and they led Xuzhou officials out of the city to welcome them.

According to Chutian's tactical plan, the original plan was to dig up the Yi River, flood Xiapi, and destroy the will of the defenders to resist. But now it seems that there is no need to destroy Xiapi.

What Chutian got was a complete city of Xiapi, and a large number of descendants.

"Tao Qian can't fight, but his ability to recruit troops is really strong. There are still 20,000 soldiers in Xiapi City."

Chu Tian can only sigh at Tao Qian's strong accumulation, the destruction of large armies in batches, and the continuous recruitment of troops.

But starting from today, all Tao Qian's accumulation is in his pocket.

Different from Tao Qian's image of a good man in Romance, Tao Qian in history had certain abilities and ambitions, but later alienated the wise and hired the villain, and finally lost to Cao Cao.
