In Ji County, the government office has been renovated after a period of time.

At this time, a black flag with the word Zhou was planted in front of the government office.

Digesting Youzhou is what Zhou Cheng is currently doing.

In fact, there are two main things: appeasing the refugees and eradicating the bandits.

Currently, the largest group of bandits in Youzhou are Liu He, Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin, Yan Rou, and the dependent Xianbei and Wuhuan people.

According to the scout's investigation.

Liu He had dispersed his generals and horses, and his various troops were scattered in the countryside and mountains.

Some of the original wealthy families in Youzhou have become clan thieves.

The so-called clan thieves refer to armed groups composed of clan and village relationships.

These people had certain military training, and they were unwilling to accept Gongsun Zan's rule, let alone be ruled by Zhou Cheng.

Therefore, an active 'counterattack' was taken against Zhou Cheng.

For example, they secretly attacked military villages at night, robbed food and livestock, killed villagers and robbed women of the villages.

Moreover, after these people set fire, they ran into the mountains and forests after looting. This can be understood as guerrilla warfare.

"Hum, these people really have the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard."Zhou Cheng threw the letter in his hand directly to the ground.

Jia Xu stood up, picked up the letter, and after reading the contents of the letter, he was not in a hurry to express his opinion.

Then, Jia Xu handed the letter to Guo Jia and Li Ru.

After Guo Jia and Li Ru read each of them, Guo Jia said:"My lord, although the clan thief is small, he has caused great harm. If we don't get rid of it, the place will be uneasy. Li Ru also stood up and said:"

My lord, you should use the power of thunder to destroy his entire clan to avoid future troubles.""

Li Ru acted ruthlessly and suggested that Zhou Cheng directly exterminate the entire clan of clan thieves.

Zhou Cheng said:"What Wen You said is absolutely true. In troubled times, heavy codes are needed."

Guo Jia said:"My lord, the clan bandits are a disaster. They are different from the mountain bandits. Their power is rooted in the local area. If a large army is sent out, I am afraid that there will be detailed notifications in the city. The clan bandits will flee after hearing the news, and the army cannot stay in the place for a long time. , when the army evacuates, the clan thieves will definitely leave and come back."

The disgusting thing about clan thieves is that they run away if they can't be beaten. Moreover, clan thieves have certain strength, which is different from ordinary mountain bandits.

What's more, there are Liu He and others cooperating behind the scenes.

Zhou Cheng frowned Eyebrow, asked Guo Jia:"Feng Xiao, what plan will you use?"

Guo Jia replied:"First bribe the sect thieves to respond in the city, follow the clues to find out where the sect thieves are hiding, and then destroy them with thunderous means.""

Zhou Cheng thought for a while and then adopted Guo Jia's strategy.

Jia Xu said:"My lord, the place is peaceful, but this is not a bad thing."

"oh? Zhou Cheng looked at Jia Xu and asked curiously:"Did the old man say this?""

Jia Xu said:"My lord, grandson: the way to immigrate is to weigh it. The people of Youzhou are suffering, but they must envy the land of peace and prosperity."

The meaning of Jia Xu's words: The principle of governing peace and making people surrender is like weighing things with a scale. Under fair circumstances, you can prepare for positioning and comparison.

A place where there is no trouble, life will be better and better, and a place where there is trouble will be better. In this place, life becomes increasingly poor.

As long as people with brains can think, they will make the right choices.

In this way, the rationality of Zhou Cheng's governance and the degree of people's dependence will be significantly improved.

To put it simply He said that it means setting up several 'special economic zones'.

After hearing Jia Xu's words, Zhou Cheng nodded and said:"If this is the case, we will select several counties to speed up the implementation of new laws and systems, and set an example for Youzhou."

Jia Xu said:"My lord has made a clear decision."

In July of 198 A.D.,

Zhou Cheng adopted Guo Jia's strategy and spent a lot of money to buy the undercover agents of the clan thieves in the city. He followed the clues to find out where the clan thieves were hiding. At the same time, he mobilized elites to encircle and suppress the clan clan members in various parts of Youzhou. The thieves suffered heavy losses.

The entire clan of the captured clan thieves were gathered together in one place and executed. Their heads were hung in front of the gates of the military camps as a warning. At the same time, Zhou Cheng adopted Jia Xu's suggestion and killed them in You. Within each county in the state, eight counties and cities were selected to speed up the promotion and implementation of new laws and systems.

In addition, Zhou Cheng transferred a large amount of grain and stationed elite Huben battalions in the eight counties to maintain local order. He applied both kindness and power. Let Youzhou stabilize as soon as possible

……

In August 198 AD, Sima Yi finally came to Jizhou with his brother Sima Lang.

It’s unbelievable that Jizhou is so prosperous.

After entering the territory of Jizhou, there was no trace of the war in Jizhou.

The bullock cart moved forward slowly on the road.

At this time, Sima Yi looked at the farmers on the roadside.

Farmers are cultivating in the fields. Most of the farmers responsible for cultivating are old people and women. There are fewer young men and there are no teenagers.

Sima Yi murmured:"Da Sima has been fighting for years, and there is a shortage of young men like all other states."

Although it was a glimpse, Sima Yi preconceived the idea that all local young men and women were forcibly recruited into the army.

Therefore, only old men and women are farming.

However, among the women farming, there are not many young ones.

Sima Lang said:"The military camp is in front of us. Let's go to rest in front."

Sima Lang had been to Jizhou before and was quite familiar with Jizhou.

There are garrisons in military villages, as well as public offices and supervision.

After arriving at Juntun, you can go through the 'entry' procedures and corresponding registration.

Sima Yi saw Juntun for the first time.

The military camp here is simply a 'fortress'.

The fence made of earthen wood is more than three meters high.

At the same time, soldiers patrolled the fence.

These soldiers wore leather armor and held spears, or carried bows and arrows, ring-head knives, etc.

The weapons and equipment are somewhat crude.

And in the village, there was actually the sound of reading.

Sima Yi was now nineteen years old and was very curious about everything, so he came closer to take a look.
