Xun Shuang agreed to serve as Yanzhou Shepherd, and Zhou Cheng sent Shi Tao and others to assist Xun Shuang in his work.

Xun Shuang is also getting older. For him, the position of Yanzhou Mu only requires his signature.

As for doing practical things, arrange for other people to help.

In addition, Zhou Cheng transferred 10,000 troops and horses to Yanzhou to guard Chenliu and protect Xun Shuang's safety.

……

Xun Shuang's arrival was definitely an unexpected surprise for Zhou Cheng.

How to use Xun Shuang to become an official is another new topic.

Zhou Cheng naturally wanted to make it known to the world.

Let everyone in the world know that Xun Shuang also defected to Zhou Cheng.

Therefore, Zhou Cheng, on Li Ru's suggestion, generously rewarded Xun Shuang and the Xun family.

Even Xun You, Xun Yu and others who followed Cao Cao to Yizhou were canonized.

Xun Shuang was granted the title of Marquis of Yangcheng, which was a county Marquis and a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households.

At the same time, Zhou Cheng also gave money or pearls in the name of the emperor.

Of course, what shocked the world was not that Zhou Cheng canonized the Xun family, but that Xun Shuang actually became an official.

Xun Shuang went to Yanzhou and served as the herdsman of Yanzhou.

Could it be that the Xun family really wanted to take refuge with Zhou Cheng?

The Xun family is not the Zhen family or the Zhao family.

The influence of the Xun family far exceeds that of the Zhen family and the Zhao family combined.

The news that Xun Shuang became an official and went to Yanzhou to take up his post spread quickly as if he had wings.

……

Yizhou, a state belonging to Guanghan, Yinping Road.

Cao Cao is currently stationing his troops here.

As expected, as Cao Cao and others expected, this place was barren and desolate.

As far as the eye can see, it is surrounded by mountains and densely forested.

In this environment, wanting to develop and grow is simply fanciful.

However, this place is not deserted.

Barbarians are active in this area.

The barbarians obviously did not welcome Cao Cao either.

These barbarians do not obey the government's management. Now that Cao Cao is here, they will naturally reject him.

Cao Cao adopted Xun You's plan. On the one hand, he sent people to deliver gifts in an attempt to appease them, and on the other hand, he explored the location of the barbarian tribes.

If the barbarians are unwilling to surrender, then send troops to attack.

Although Cao Cao now has fewer troops, the barbarian tribes are relatively scattered, and a tribe can only send thousands of men at one time.

These thousands of people have not received professional military training and do not have formal weapons and armor.

They can be defeated easily by sending only one general.

Collect barbarians and train them into an army.

This is the most 'high-quality' source of troops for Cao Cao and others at present.

At the same time, Cao Cao also personally led the team to reclaim the mountainous land and create terraced fields for farming.

Everything started from scratch, and Cao Cao took the lead. The morale of Cao's army was temporarily stable, and everything seemed to be moving in a good direction.

When Zhang Song came to see Cao Cao, Cao Cao was farming in the fields.

Zhang Song saw Cao Cao's face covered with mud and water from hard work, and hurriedly said:"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Cao."

Zhang Song was still very optimistic about Cao Cao.

If Cao Cao is willing to accept Zhang Song, or pays attention to Zhang Song, then Zhang Song will definitely actively plan for Cao Cao and let Cao Cao capture Yizhou.

However, Cao Cao not only loves beauty, but also likes to judge people by their appearance.

Zhang Song's appearance made Cao Cao not interested in Zhang Song.

However, now that Cao Cao is in power and has no choice but to rely on Liu Zhang, his attitude towards Zhang Song is still relatively good.

Zhang Song came this time not only to visit Cao Cao, but also to bring some news to Cao Cao.

The first news was that Xun Shuang was appointed as the shepherd of Yanzhou.

Cao Cao's eyes widened when he learned that Xun Shuang actually became an official and also worked for Zhou Cheng.

But Xun Yu, Xun You and others couldn't believe their ears.

Xun Shuang is one of the Eight Dragons of the Xun family.

Moreover, it is the most famous among Xun's Eight Dragons.

Respected as the 'Ultimate Filial Piety', both before and after the Yellow Turban Uprising, countless people wanted to invite Xun Shuang to serve as an official.

At the same time, Xun Shuang read poetry and books and was a real great Confucian.

The scholars and students who once studied with Xun Shuang are like the sand in the sea and the stars in the Milky Way.

Cao Cao's breathing became rapid. He never dreamed that Xun Shuang would become an official under Zhou Cheng.

The next news from Zhang Song made Xun You, Xun Yu and others feel a sense of crisis.

"The Zhou thieves also ennobled you as marquises."

When Zhang Song was talking, he also took out a list of names.

Everyone who was a direct descendant of the Xun family had the opportunity to become a marquis.

In this way, it would be even more difficult for Xun family's descendants such as Xun Yu and Xun You to be under Cao Cao's account.

Even if they did not rebel against Cao Cao, it does not mean that they will not rebel in the future.

After all, Zhou Cheng attaches so much importance to the Xun family. Will the Xun family give up Cao Cao and join Zhou Cheng for their own interests?
