After sorting out the issue of surrendering troops, Lu Zhan took the time to take a look at Zhiyu, the young master of the Zhi family. Although that guy was stunned several times, he didn't agree to cooperate until now, and he was probably sure that Lu Zhan would not really torture him.

"This Zhiyu really doesn't know what to do, and we have the heart to let him continue to be the master of the southern part of this Zhiyu." Duan Xiaohan took a sip of wine and complained to Lu Zhan.

Previously, he planned to use Zhiyu to spread the word about these areas that were still stubborn, but after thinking about it, he didn't have the appetite to eat so many areas at present, and planned to take out most of the land to establish an obedient puppet.

But Zhiyu has been refusing, and it seems that the candidate for this agent will have to be changed.

"This Zhiyu is indeed a hard bone, but none of the other Zhi family clansmen who have been caught by us have enough weight to govern these areas for us. Since Zhiyu refuses to be a dog for us, let's exchange him for some ransom. Xiaohan, you go and send a letter to Quwo to see if his father cares about his life. Lu Zhan took out a letter from his bosom that had been written a long time ago.

"Understood, I'll arrange it." After Duan Xiaohan wiped the corners of his mouth, he took the envelope and prepared to go ahead to make arrangements.

After sending Duan Xiaohan away, Lu looked at the map on the wall. It has been a tradition for Lu Zhan to hang a map on this wall for so long, and the soldiers next to Lu Zhan will always have a map in Lu Zhan's luggage.

The situation in the north is not yet visible, the main forces on both sides are watching, and there are no less than three small encounters and clashes between each other in a day. The two sides sent troops and horses to each other to attack each other's rear, and the people behind not only had to bear the pain of conscription in transporting grain and grass to the front, but also suffered from the attacks of the opponent's small troops from time to time.

"The prolongation of this war will weary the people and empty their wares." Lu Zhan was worried after looking at the military reports that were constantly being sent in his hand, although these people were not under him, he wanted to know the situation of these people.

"As the saying goes, the lord is good, he would rather be a peaceful dog than a troubled world. If you want me to say that the lord should quickly send troops to clear the universe and restore peace to the people. Chen Zhuang said with a radiant look, and his tone was quite heroic and general-like.

After hearing Chen Zhuang's words, Lu Zhan said lightly: "It will be so easy to sweep away the world, so let's farm and develop first."

Chen Zhuang knows about farming and development, but when these two words are combined, it is nerve-wracking. Chen Zhuang asked with a thirst for knowledge: "What does this kind of field development mean by the lord?" The lord always has some new words coming out of his mouth that he has never heard of. ”

This means accumulating grain, building high walls, and slowing down the struggle for hegemony. When the soldiers are full of food, take the elite armor with a strong bow and a hard crossbow, and the world can be determined. ”

Lu Zhan specially replaced the title of king with the title of hegemon, this is not the surname Jing can not be the king, these feudal vassal states are the highest that is, the principality, except for the Chu State that usurped the king, the princes of this world dare not call the king.

If he brazenly claims to be king, then in the future, countless enemies will come to crusade against him under the banner of eliminating traitors. Instead of fame, it is better to have tangible benefits.

"It's a good idea to build a wall and accumulate grain. By the way, I almost forgot about business, this is a message sent by the Zhen family. Chen Zhuang suddenly patted his head in the middle of speaking, and took out a thick envelope from his arms.

After Lu Zhan saw these envelopes, he thought to himself: It's so thick, it can't be a silver ticket sent. So what's going on here?

When I opened it, I saw that except for the first letter, the rest of the letter paper was densely packed with people's names.

After reading the first letter, I realized that this was the list of dignitaries from Zhen Wu and Yecheng's families, and the soldiers from Yecheng were naturally not on the list, and the children of the family and their relatives were listed here.

Lu Zhan handed over all the letterheads except the first one to Chen Zhuang with a smile, and patted Chen Zhuang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, Xiaohan, you go and put these people back according to the names on the list, remember to give some travel expenses, otherwise the sons of these families will all become called Huazi when they return to Yecheng."

With the thick list in hand, Chen Zhuang shook his head and prepared to go to the prisoner of war camp to put these people back.

The letter sent by Zhen Wu said that soldiers and horses could be recruited in Yecheng, and the warriors of this Yecheng were also famous in Hebei, and most of the most elite heavy infantry of the Zhijia family came from Yecheng.

"Hmph, it is said that the poorer the mountains and bad waters, the stronger the soldiers are, and the rich and fertile soldiers in Yanzhou who can meet the selection standards are only tens of thousands, and this Yecheng is not only a commercial town but also a source of high-quality soldiers." Lu Zhan muttered to himself.

However, according to the previous division, this Yecheng is in the Zhao family's sphere of influence, and if he recruits Yecheng warriors into the army now, he may have to spend a lot of money to move the families of these soldiers in the future.

What Lu Zhan didn't know was that this Yecheng city has always had the style of practicing martial arts, and the folk customs were much more fierce than other places.

Although Lu Zhan had some concerns, Lu Zhan still wrote an order to the defenders stationed in Yecheng to recruit 6,000 elite soldiers in Yecheng to form an army alone.

In this history, Yuan Shao's fortune relied on the grain of Bohai County and the elite soldiers from Yecheng, and the first to die was Yuan Shao's elite troops.

"Lu Zhan, come over for dinner." Huo Lin suddenly urged Lu Zhan to come over for dinner with a gentle tone. It feels like a tiger has turned into a kitten.

"Eh, here we are." Lu Zhan put the letter on top of the bookcase and prepared to go to dinner.

At this time, Zhen Wu slept on the recliner, enjoying the breeze brought by the subordinate waving the banana fan next to him.

For Zhen Wu, now that the overall situation in the south has been decided, the development speed of this Lu Zhan is probably only comparable to that of those feudal princes who began to expand their territory when the Jing clan was just established.

"Oh, I just don't know when this Lord Lu will be able to return to Yecheng." Zhen Wu, who was sleeping on the recliner and enjoying the squeeze of his shoulders, suddenly opened his eyes and asked.

"Master, the concubine can see that the young lady likes Lord Lu, and a woman's eyes on women can't be wrong." Zhen Wu's concubine, Wang, pinched Zhen Wu's shoulders while sleeping on the recliner.

"You think I can't see it, it's just a problem on Lord Lu's side. I can't block the door of Lord Lu's house and say that the two of us can't be sons-in-law. ”。

"The lord laughed, but this marriage is not only a matter of our Zhen family, many famous families in Hebei have begun to wait and see the situation, this Zhen family is one of the noble families in Hebei, if the lord and the Lu family are in-laws, it will show the attitude of the Hebei family."

"It's my favorite, not only is she beautiful and can take care of people, but she is also a military advisor who can give advice."
