"Yuan Shao's advisor Xu You defected to Zhou Yafu, who was stationed in Liyang, and offered his strategy and topographic map of Jizhou."

"Hundreds of civil servants in Yuzhou surrendered, among them Chen Ji and Chen Qun and their sons."

"Altolia, Wei Qing, Cao Cao and others captured dozens of generals in Runan, including Feng Yi, the prefect of Runan."

...

Chutian left Li Dian and Xiahou Dun to guard Bowang, and then returned to Xuchang to receive information from all sides.

In Yingchuan, Chutian captured Yang Yanzhao, Cheng Yaojin, He Yi, Liu Pi, Liao Hua, and tens of thousands of troops from Runan. I thought that the harvest was already good, but I never thought that Xu You, Chen Ji, and Chen Qun would take the initiative to vote, and they also captured Feng Yi, one of the "Twenty-Eight Generals of Yuntai".

Among the twenty-eight generals in Yuntai, Feng Yi should be ranked first in commander value. He is one of the more capable generals under Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. He is nicknamed "General Dashu". He is as dull as Zhou Yafu, but very reliable. .

It's a pity that Feng Yi's opponents are commanders at the level of Wei Qing and Cao Cao.

Feng Yi is also a qualified candidate for the army commander, which can be seen from the offensive of Wei Qing and Cao Cao in Runan County alone.

It is not easy to make Feng Yi take over for his own use.

"Zhou Yafu, according to Xu You's plan, harvested the grain and grass in the Yecheng area, migrated the population to Liyang, and led Qishui into Baigou to transport military grain."

"Xu You also suggested that Huairou's Black Mountain Army should attack Yecheng. However, Zhang Yan of the Heishan Army had already surrendered to Zhao Long, and this plan failed."

Chutian got more information about the battle in Hebei.

Xu You is estimated to be biased in some respects.

Zhao Long was not mediocre a few years ago, but actively attacked the Montenegrin Army, which is equivalent to Chutian suppressing the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army and the Taishan Bandit.

Xu You's attempt to win over the Montenegrin army failed.

However, Xu You's other proposals were quite successful.

"Let Zhou Yafu and Du Ruhui do what they want. As for Xu You, if something goes wrong in Jizhou, you can go to Xiacheng to see me."

"Chen Ji, Chen Qun, Feng Yi and others, all brought to Xiacheng."

Chutian began to transfer troops to Dongjun.

At present, Chutian's army is concentrated in the areas of Yingchuan and Runan, which belong to Yuzhou. It will take a lot of time to transfer to Baima and Puyang in Yanzhou.

At the same time, before Yuzhou established a defensive army, Chutian had to leave no less than 100,000 troops to defend Xuchang, otherwise the Jingzhou army might make a comeback at any time.

"The Yuzhou troops were recruited, and four legions were prepared, of which Bowang was stationed with one legion, Runan was stationed with one legion, and Xuchang was stationed with two legions, each with 40,000 troops, a total of 160,000 troops."

Chutian recruited again.

The expansion of the territory means that the range to be defended is also larger.

At the same time, Yuzhou faced pressure from Jingzhou and Guanzhong, and the 160,000 army was not much.

As for the candidates to guard Yuzhou, this is a question.

Cao Cao should have been the most qualified candidate, and he could have fielded and trained troops in Yuzhou, but the position of Yuzhou was too important.

Once the prefect of Yuzhou defected and defected to Jingzhou or Guanzhong, then Chutian's attack on Yuzhou this time would be meaningless.

The qualified defender Zhou Yafu was working as a nailer in Liyang at this time.

Yu Jin was kept in Gaotang, Qingzhou.

"Le Yi will be guarding Yuzhou for the time being, and when Hebei is pacified, other generals will be appointed."

Chu Tian thought for a while.

If you want to pacify Hebei, you will naturally have to bring the siege-type Le Yi.

It will take some time for the mobilization of troops and horses. During this period, Le Yi, who is commander-in-chief and highly political, guards Yuzhou.

Shouldn't be a problem.

To the west, Cao Ren and Man Chong guarded Hulao Pass and Xingyang, blocking the troops from Guanzhong; to the south, Li Dian and Xiahou Dun guarded Bowang, controlling Xia Dao, Fangcheng, and blocking the troops from Jingzhou.

In the middle, Le Yi sits in Xuchang and supports the two roads at any time.

As for Runan, Chutian transferred Jiyin Prefect Gongzi Wen to Runan to serve as the prefect of Runan, to eliminate the remnants of the Tang Dynasty in Runan County. At the same time, Gongziwen's departure from Jiyin County, which he has long run, can also eliminate Gongziwen's control over Jiyin County.

This is a means of centralizing power as a high-ranking person.

Gongziwen is also willing to serve as the prefect of Runan.

According to the default rules, he successively served as the governor of Jiyin County and then the governor of Runan, and the next time he may be the governor.

After surrendering to Chutian, it is quite rare for players to be able to serve as a high-level governor at the level of governor.

After Chutian made personnel arrangements, he read the information of Yuzhou and found that Runan County was also very rich, with a population of 8 million on the register alone!

Although the area of ​​Runan County is equivalent to 3-4 Yingchuan County, it is indeed rare for a county to have such a large population.

It is said that Tang secretly accumulated strength and was preparing to dominate the Central Plains, but unfortunately Chutian next to him developed, and that Tang was defeated by Chutian's 400,000 army.

"No wonder Tang can have so many soldiers and horses, and easily defeat Yuan Shu. It seems that as long as you farm well in a county and absorb the surrounding refugees, the population will definitely be large."

Chutian underestimated the population of Runan County.

Because the area of ​​Runan County is so large that it occupies almost half of Yuzhou, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao directly divided Runan County into three counties and ruled them, which was also a means of strengthening the centralization of power.

In any case, these eight million people became Chutian's trophies, and Chutian got a lot of labor.

The harvest of the attack on Yuzhou was very rich, and Chutian was quite satisfied.

"My lord, Xiacheng is in a hurry!"

When Chu Tian was shocked by the foundation left by Tang, a messenger from Xiacheng came to report urgently.

Chu Tian checked the information, his mind went blank, Hua Mulan gave birth to a daughter for him in Xiacheng!

"It turned out to be a daughter..."

This time, Chutian has a one-year-old son and a newborn daughter.

"It's time to go back to Xiacheng."

Chutian has basically completed the affairs of Yuzhou, and the army is still on the way to Dongjun. He can use this spare time to return to Xiacheng to visit the mother and daughter of Mulan.

"Sister Mulan gave birth to a daughter?"

Xia Xia Liang heard the news and planned to go back to Xiacheng with Chu Tian.

Because Xu County was changed by Chutian to the seat of Yingchuan County, it was a large city itself, so it had a teleportation formation and could return directly to Xiacheng.

In the backyard of the lord's mansion, Hua Mulan was holding her newborn daughter with a doting face.

"My lord is back!"

The maid hurried in to report.

Mulan was overjoyed, Chu Tian and Xia Xia Liang had already entered.

"My lord...you see, it's a daughter."

Mulan seemed a little incoherent because of her excitement.

Chu Tian always felt that it was like a different life. Not long ago, Hua Mulan, who was still fighting in the Quartet, has become a wife and has a daughter of her own.

If I can unify the Eastern Han in the future, then this daughter will be named the eldest princess in return for Mulan...
