Guan Ping came to Guiyang for two things.

One is women.

The second is militarism.

Women, it's simple. Guan Ping is a womanizer, while Guiyang Taishou Zhao Fan has a widowed sister-in-law named Fan. History called this woman "national".

Guan Ping was very curious about what level of national color it was.

Guan Ping is a person who understands the Three Kingdoms and knows that there were many strange women in the late Han Dynasty, including Cai Wenji, Zhen and so on. But in fact, there is not much ink on the appearance of some women.

There are clear records of national colors, and Guan Ping knows three. Jiangdong Erqiao, and this Fan.

Guan Ping is a hungry ghost, so he likes this Fan more. And it's nothing, this Fan should be widowed at home.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, it was not the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it was normal for widows to remarry.

In history, Zhao Fan wanted to marry Fan to Zhao Yun, but Zhao Yun refused. This proves that Zhao Yun's character is strong and he is not fascinated by beauty.

Zhao Yun also suspected that Zhao Fan had bad intentions, and later proved that Zhao Yun was right, because the historical records recorded that Zhao Fan disappeared later.

Fled.

But here in Guan Ping, he is not afraid of Zhao Fan's ill-intentioned intentions. Because Guan Ping's current strength is different from Liu Bei.

In the past, Liu Bei's territory was only the four counties of Jingnan, and the Tun Public Security. According to Zhuge Liang, he is afraid of Cao Gong's strength in the north, Sun Quan's pressure in the east, and Mrs. Sun's elbows and armpits are afraid of changes, and they are in retreat.

In such a situation, people's hearts fluctuate. Therefore, Zhao Fan may not surrender to Liu Bei.

But the Guan family is different, and the Guan family is very strong. Whether it was a turtle with a shrunken head, or a burden of humiliation, the Guan family relied on the powerful city and heritage to drive Cao Cao away.

Cao Cao's ass did not sit firmly in Jingzhou.

Cao Cao then drove Sun Quan away.

At present, Guan Yu has basically secured the territory that originally belonged to Liu Biao, and his power has been strengthened.

Liu Biao was already very powerful back then, although Liu Biao didn't understand war. But it is also known as "more than 100,000 armor, and the soldiers are full of food." ”

Now Guan Yu's ability, prestige, and prestige are obviously stronger than Liu Biao, and he can concentrate Jingzhou's strength more. It also divided the south bank into Huzhou, with Ma Liang as the thorn history, and unified the power of the south.

Shamoke is Guan Yu's general.

At that time, Liu Biao's forces were mostly concentrated on the north bank, and his control over the four southern counties was actually not strong, let alone Shamoke. And now Guan Yu has integrated Huzhou, and the development is extremely strong.

The strength of the Guan family is really strong.

Under such circumstances, Guan Ping believed that Zhao Fan would not fluctuate in people's hearts, but surrendered more sincerely.

That's just the normal situation.

A huge force, loyal and strong-willed people will always be in the minority. It's more about the grass on the wall that the wind blows on both sides.

Maintaining the strength of the power and the stability of the position can stabilize these wall grasses.

On the contrary, it just falls apart.

But for beauty is one of them, and the more important thing is a militaristic matter.

The situation in Guiyang is similar to that of Lingling, although the area is vast, the population of the county seat is very small. The seat of governance is in Chenxian, a small county seat.

But unlike Lingling, Guiyang's borders on Jiaozhou. In Guiyang, there are not only Wuxi barbarian activities, but also many Baiyue activities.

The so-called Baiyue is not Shanyue, Shanyue is just a branch of Baiyue.

The situation in Jiaozhou is similar to that in Jiangdong, where there is a large number of Baiyue activities. Jiaozhou Shixie has been able to command Jiaozhou for decades, and his real ability is not small.

The current Guiyang Taishou is Zhao Fan, and the person in charge of military affairs is Huo Jun. Guan Ping sent Huo Jun to Guiyang, and Huo Jun not only brought Jingzhou soldiers himself, but also received 10,000 county soldiers in Guiyang County, and then increased the number of troops to more than 20,000.

At present, the army is expanding rapidly, and there is a lack of armor and weapons, and it is working hard to operate.

Because of the small population and scattered population of Guiyang, after Huo Jun arrived in Guiyang, he could only disperse the army among the counties and directly feed the army with the grain of each county, reducing the loss of concentrated grain.

is the same as Bashu, the food is nearby to feed the army.

Guan Ping set up an army of seventy or eighty thousand in Huzhou, mainly to deal with Sun Quan, but Guiyang Huo Jun's army had other tasks.

At present, there are more than 5,000 people stationed in Chenxian County. Guan Ping led Xiang Lang, and after Zhou Xiong arrived in Chenxian, Guiyang Taishou led everyone out of the city to greet Guan Ping.

After Guan Ping and Zhao Fan talked and appeased, they entered the city first, and then watched the military camp in the city, Huo Jun's army, which was average.

Huo Jun originally trained more than 5,000 people, and now Huo Jun controls more than 20,000 troops with these more than 5,000 people. At present, the army in this Chenxian county is composed of some of Huo Jun's elite cores and the county soldiers who have been recruited.

Without half a year, I am afraid it will be difficult to form combat effectiveness.

If you want to be called elite, it takes one or two years.

The rest of the Huzhou generals of Shamoke, Fu Tong, Ma Liang, and Liu Pan are all in a similar situation. Now it can be said that Huzhou's military strength is extremely weak.

However, Sun Quan, the biggest competitor, has no time to take care of himself, so he can train his soldiers with peace of mind.

After inspecting the army, Guan Ping didn't have much interest, and let Zhao Fan lead him to the county guard's mansion. The county seat is a small county seat, but the county guard is quite magnificent.

It can be seen that Zhao Fan is making no less money. But it doesn't matter, you can be blamed for the past, and you won't know about it later. Ma Liang's governance ability is absolutely superb.

If Zhao Fan does something wrong, I am afraid that his life will not be long.

Of course, this does not prevent Guan Ping from being interested in other people's widows.

After entering the hall of the county guard, Guan Ping sat on the northern throne, Zhou Xiong led his own soldiers to wait outside, Huo Jun, Zhao Fan, and Xiang Lang sat on both sides.

It was much more formal when he came here, Guan Ping and Zhao Fan discussed how to govern Guiyang, and made some things clear, that is, to let Zhao Fan cooperate with Ma Liang to govern the Wuxi barbarians and the Baiyue people, make them speak Chinese, and make them naturalized, etc.

Zhao Fan's appearance was white and clean, and he was also very well-behaved.

He can't help but be well-behaved, because the Guan family is very strong now.

And this matter is just ordinary, and the real big thing is still to come. Guan Ping raised his head and said to Xiang Lang: "Sir, I specially brought Mr. here, but Mr. knows why?" ”

Xiang Lang was a middle-level official in the Guanping shogunate, and in this battle against the Jiangdong people, he showed something, that is, he was meritorious.

Among the three major officials in Guan Ping's shogunate, Ma Liang was promoted to become the assassin of Huzhou. According to Xiang Lang's talent, he is also qualified to be promoted to Changshi.

But Guan Ping let Xiang Chong, Zhang Bao, Mi Wei, Zhao Tong and others return to Hanzhong, but they brought Xiang Lang here, of course, for a reason.

"But I probably know." Xiang Lang was extremely smart, and of course he guessed Guan Ping's intentions, and said with his hand.

Guan Ping nodded and said: "I have arranged seventy or eighty thousand soldiers and horses in Huzhou, and I have arranged them in Nanjun, and Jiangxia has arranged a large number of men and horses, not to mention attacking Jiangdong, it is more than enough to be prepared." Guiyang is remote in the south and is not a strategic location, so if it is to deal with Jiangdong, there is no need to deploy 20,000 elite soldiers. I not only prepared 20,000 soldiers and horses, but also left General Huo. Guan Ping glanced at Huo Jun and said, "General Huo is brave and good at fighting. Of course, it can't just be garrisoned, it needs to be opened up in Jiaozhou. ”

Guan Ping's words couldn't help but make Huo Jun straighten his waist, which was quite useful.

Both the civil servants and the military generals are eager to be reused and appreciated by their superiors.

"Jiaozhou Shixie has been in charge of Jiaozhou for many years, and many of his brothers have served as Jiaozhou county guards and key positions. This person is very good, and Baiyue is also very obedient to him. It is known as the supreme authority. If you take it by force, you will inevitably lose your troops. You have to outwit it. This person has good means, but in fact, he is not very ambitious, and he is just self-preservation. If you can win him over, at a critical moment, let him send troops from the south to Jiangdong. It is a very advantageous thing. ”

Guan Ping said eloquently.

Shi Xie is really a freak.

According to historical records, it is biased in thousands of miles and is supreme. The position is stable, and the strength is also there. But he surrendered to Sun Quan, and while he was alive, Jiangdong's forces had already infiltrated into Jiaozhou.

Shi Xie didn't care.

As soon as Shi Xie died, Sun Quan attacked Jiaozhou, and Shi Xie's children and grandchildren were almost killed. Later, Sun Quan divided the state into Guangzhou and Jiaozhou into two states.

Now the strength of the Guan family is no worse than Jiangdong, and if it can annex Yizhou, it will surpass Jiangdong by a lot. Guiyang borders Jiaozhou, and Guan Ping feels that he can also copy Sun Quan's routine and contact Shixie.

Woo it.

Xiang Lang is a good candidate, resourceful, gentle, and eloquent.

After Guan Ping took a breath, he took another breath and said: "I plan to appoint Mr. to engage in Huzhou, regardless of daily governance, only for Jiaozhou, to win over Shixie, and also to set up a small official office for Mr. ”

"No." Xiang Lang had already prepared in his heart, and he was extremely calm at this moment.

This is the matter of militarism. Wooing Shixie, he fought with Sun Quan at a critical moment, and he had a good knife.

But this is only a big strategy, Guan Ping still has tactics.

"For Jiaozhou Shixie, the main thing is to win over and pacify, but there is still one person who can be co-opted, but it is best to attack." Guan Ping's eyes flashed and said.

"But Cangwu Wu Chen?" Huo Jun said in a deep voice.

Cangwu guarded Wu Chen, the person who was defeated by Liu Bei in history and proposed when he met Lu Su, Liu Bei originally planned to defect to Wu Chen.

claimed to have a friendship with Wu Chen.

Cangwu County is a county under the rule of Jiaozhou, bordering Guiyang. But this Wu Chen was not appointed by Shi Xie, but by Liu Biao.

That's right, it's Liu Biao.

Liu Biao is really complicated, and it is not too much to say that he is a thief of self-defense, because Liu Biao did not dare to watch the Central Plains and became a turtle with a shrunken head.

However, Liu Biao is the existence of calling for wind and rain in the south, and Liu Biao was very dissatisfied with Liu Yan during the Liu Yan period, because Liu Yan did too much, and made the Luan Yu and utensils of the Son of Heaven in Yizhou, with bad intentions.

Later, Gan Ning and others failed to betray Liu Zhang and fled to Jingzhou, and Liu Biao received Gan Ning and others.

The two Liu are both clansmen, but they don't deal with each other.

In the East, Liu Biao not only killed Sun Jian, but also acquiesced to Huang Zu, Liu Pan and others harassing Jiangdong when Sun Quan and Sun Ce's brothers ruled Jiangdong.

In the south, Liu Biao set up Lai Gong as the assassin of Jiaozhou, and appointed Wu Chen as the Taishou of Cangwu in a vain attempt to control Jiaozhou.

Look, Liu Biao is really calling for wind and rain, and he can also make trouble, not just a thief who defends the land.

Let's not talk about Liu Biao, this Wu Chen controlled Cangwu County, Lai Gong was nominally Jiaozhou Assassin, but he also stayed in Cangwu County, and then the two fell out of harmony, Wu Chen drove Lai Gong away, and stayed in Cangwu County alone.

This person was appointed by Liu Biao, but he did not listen to Liu Biao or Shixie, and he belonged to an independent prince. If Guan Ping eats Wu Chen, it will not be regarded as a face-to-face with Shixie, but it will expand the land.

It is also possible to bury a nail in Jiaozhou to appease and win over Shixie, but at the same time, it is also extremely threatening.

So there are many benefits to killing Wu Chen.

Although Huo Jun is staying in Guiyang now, in fact, the ideal blueprint is that Huo Jun will lead 20,000 troops to stay in Cangwu, and Guiyang does not need a garrison.

"It's Wu Chen." Guan Ping glanced at Huo Jun and appreciated it very much. This general can not only lead troops, but also have a good vision. Then, Guan Ping said: "Wu Chen and Shixie are not in harmony, and they have nothing to do with Sun Quan. At this moment, my father and son replaced Liu Biao, this person has no rescue, and he is no match for Shi Xie, so he should be extremely uneasy. We appease him this year, and we will take him in next year. If he refuses, send troops to destroy him. General Huo, it should be okay next year, right? ”

Guan Ping looked at Huo Jun with a smile.

"General Ming is relieved. If Wu Chen refuses to accept it next year, he will enter Cangwu. Huo Jun clenched his fists with both hands and said loudly.

"Okay." Guan Ping smiled with satisfaction.

That's how it's used.

This is Guan Ping's tactic.

Strategically win over Shixie, and tactically kill Wu Chen, the defender of Cangwu County. The general strategy is to pose a threat to the southern part of Sun Quan in Jiangdong.

The defeat of Shu Han in history has a great deal to do with Sun Quan, the king of Wu in the Great Wei Dynasty. Guan Ping will not repeat the mistakes of the past, he has great vigilance against Sun Quan, even.

Guan Ping felt that if he had the ability, he might as well ease the relationship with Cao Cao and kill Sun Zhi first.

This battle for world domination is a matter of the winner is king. The three are strong, and it is better for the two to compete. Kill the weakest first.

The matter was handed over to Xiang Lang, and Huo Jun was responsible. The next step is to relax.

Guan Ping is very shameless, thinking about other people's widows and sisters-in-law. However, Guan Ping is not too simple and rude, and he can't say directly to Zhao Fan, offer your sister-in-law, right?

Guan Ping went south this time, and also brought some small officials to assist Xiang Chong, and Guan Ping found a small official from the excitement point to investigate the Fan family.

I learned that the Fan family was widowed last year and has not remarried.

This is the biggest obstacle, Guan Ping has no psychological burden on widows, but he is not interested in snatching other people's wives, and he can't do it.

After inquiring about the news, Guan Ping asked the little official to contact Zhao Fan.

In fact, it is still a little dangerous to do this kind of thing. Cao Mengde suffered a big loss in Wancheng. However, at present, Huo Jun controls the army, and Guan Ping has personal soldiers.

Besides, Zhao Fan is not Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu is a military general, and Chong Guan is angry. Zhao Fan is a white-faced scholar.

Sure enough, that night, Zhao Fan sent his widowed sister-in-law Fan to serve Guan Ping to bathe and sleep. That Fan's family is really a national color, her appearance is still above Zhang Yu, a woman in her twenties, and her body is plump.

Gentle as water.

Guan Ping has always liked supple women.

After a night of romance. Guan Ping stayed in Guiyang for ten days, then led Zhou Xiong and other personal soldiers, took his bride Fan, went north out of Huzhou and returned to Xiangyang, and then took a boat through Hanshui to go back to Hanzhong.

Put aside the matter of the East for the time being, and swallow Liu Zhang first.
