Not to mention how Cai Lu would face her parents after she went home, Kou Yan looked at the empty room and smiled bitterly after driving Cai Lu away: I finally sent the eldest lady away. I'm still a kind-hearted person in the end, I can't really reward her to my subordinates, otherwise there are many people who have made great contributions in this Northern Expedition, Xu Shu and Huang Zhong don't mention, Wei Yan, Gan Ning, Kou Feng, Cen Qi, Huang Xu, which one has made great contributions after nine deaths, and it is not good to reward a woman to them at all!

Send Cai Lu away, and soon there will be new members in the General's Mansion, Kou Rong, who lives in Changsha, that is, Liu Qiao's sister, will definitely move in, Miss Huang Yueying, who is engaged in saving zài, will also move in, and the teacher's mother and Deng Ai's mother can also live together in the General's Mansion if they want. But Sun Shao can't live in, he is not under her control, where Zhang Zhongjing is, he is there, and the people who protect him also protect Zhang Zhongjing by the way.

Jiang Wan will have full authority to arrange the move, and the guards sent to pick up Kou Rong are already on the way. Kou Yan, who had always been nervous like a bow, turned around and found that there was nothing to do!

After a few seconds, she tapped her head with her hand and scolded herself, "You're a toiler, and you'll be sick when you stop for a while?"

Although Liu Biao's study has passed through several masters, but those are all hurried passers-by, so the study almost maintains the shape of Liu Biao when he was alive, and those rare ornaments and playthings have of course been taken away, but many bamboo books are still left. Liu Biao was also a person who loved culture during his lifetime. Xiangyang's literary style is prosperous, and he also has a certain role in fueling the flames. Therefore, the collection of books in his study is still very rich, and the buttonholes in his spare time are embarrassed to always catch Xu Shu and Pang Tong chatting, so he has to read books to pass the time.

It didn't matter what she saw, but she saw something that excited her. Outside Jiaozhou, in the sea, there is Yizhou, its people are like Baiyue, good water, eat raw fish for a living, and the people are fierce and abnormal.

Take the location of Yizhou as described in the book. Put it on the map and take a look. The geographical location is very good, if it can be developed into a military base, it is a good choice to go north to Liaodong or south to Jiangdong by sea in the future. If you can find this Yizhou and capture it, it can be used as both a military port and a trade transit base. The war horses of Liaodong can enter Changsha through this road. Go north to Xiangyang. There are a large number of Liaodong war horses. The establishment of large-scale cavalry units will be guaranteed by the source of horses.

Relying on the batch of war horses sent by Cao Ren alone, it is difficult to get three or five hundred cavalry, let alone a dragon like Cao Cao. The tiger and leopard are casually tens of thousands of people. Cao Cao's horse farms, there are eight out of ten, and the number of each horse farm is tens of thousands. Only when the foundation is solid can an excellent superstructure be built, so Changsha must have its own horse farm, either rob Cao Cao, or go away to Liaodong by himself.

Where is Cao Cao so easy to rob? The northerners live on cavalry, so can you approach the horse farm casually? To put it mildly, it is easier to beat Xu Du than to beat his horse farm!

Therefore, although going to sea to make a deal with Liaodong sounds a bit unbelievable, and the wind and waves at sea are also unpredictable, the danger is accompanied by huge benefits, which makes Kou Yan's heart moved.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of Zhou Yu who had been cheated by herself many times, and remembered the many things he told her about Jiaozhou Shishi and the customs of Jiaozhou, and she began to feel that Zhou Yu was still a good person in addition to some of the Jiangdong people's iconic and extremely xenophobic bad problems. At least in terms of loyalty to Sun Ce, he is definitely more reliable than Sun Quan, his younger brother.

Maybe, she should really listen to him, let Ma Liang go and contact over there, and see if it is possible to borrow a way or something, as for the annexation of Jiaozhou, I'm sorry, she is not thinking about this now.

Thinking so, she began to read the information about this overseas Yizhou with great interest. It's a pity that after reading for a long time, I found that Liu Biao was not very concerned about this matter, and only a few words roughly described the situation in Yizhou. Important information such as location, size, and number of indigenous people is vague.

However, Kou Yan thinks that this matter is also understandable, after all, overseas Yizhou is overseas, and the sea is a devil's area that cannot be conquered for inland river ships, and the unpredictable wind and waves, as well as the unchanged scenery around after going to sea, it is easy for people to get lost, so going to sea is something that Kou Yan, a seasick person, can't think of. Do not do to others what you would not like to do to yourself, she herself is not willing, who would dare to take this risk?

It's just that this matter has taken root in her heart, no matter whether she can find Yizhou in the end or not, the road to Jiaozhou will always have to be painful. Ma Liang talked about the experience of returning to the people of Wuxi, so it was better to let him go to Jiaozhou, I heard that they were short of food there, and the last thing she lacked was food, and it was not a matter of sending them tens of thousands of stones.

Kou Yan made up his mind, and after Jiang Wan moved people and things here, he officially sent a document from Xiangyang to Ma Liang, asking him to handle this matter, and Deng Ai continued to assist him.

As for Ma Yan, this time it was his turn to be in the limelight, and Kou Yan arranged for him to go to Xudu with Wang Tao to face the saint. Of course, they also brought a tribute to the emperor, a Hunan embroidered robe. The material is top-grade silk, embroidered with Jingchu scenery, showing the characteristics of Hunan embroidery.

Kou Yan thought about it, and the farewell was finally sent to Cao Cao's pocket. Only by sending clothes can the emperor know that this is specially given to him, if he can't bear the pressure and give it to Cao Cao, then it is not a matter of the person who sent it.

Of course, if you just send a piece of clothing, it is not enough, the pearl baby and the like are clearly for Emperor Xian, and the things that are actually given to Cao Cao are also prepared. Anyway, Kou Yan didn't really want to spend money to buy Cao Cao to see Emperor Xian. So the so-called gift is just the meaning, everyone knows it.

It's just that Wang Tao and Ma Tan can complete this mission? What if they are driven out or detained by Cao Cao? Kou Yan has not thought about this problem. It is impossible for her to go to Xu Xu herself, and if she goes in, she will definitely not be able to get out. Liu Bei's escape from Xu Capital made Cao Cao hate him for the rest of his life, how could he let something like this happen again?

But. If she doesn't go, she will inevitably worry about whether her subordinates can fully express her intentions, whether they can do this thing as she wishes, if not, does she really want Chen Bing Xu Du?

There is no doubt that if something goes wrong with Wang Tao and Ma Yan, it is imperative for Chen Bing and Xu to do so. Therefore, whether Wei Yan can win Nanyang this time has become the key to the key. I hope that there will be no accidents.
