After Zhou Yu, who fled in embarrassment, returned to Chaisang, he couldn't afford to fall ill.

From then on, Soochow's strategy towards Jingzhou changed from offensive to defensive.

At the same time, the Sun-Liu alliance became closer.

Especially Liu Bei, he is extremely weak at the moment. He was not only worried about Xu Tian in Jingzhou, for him, the close Soochow was the biggest threat.

Sun Quan had even more ideas, and his main defense was placed in the north.

Because Cao Cao is his biggest threat, especially now that Jingzhou has belonged to him.

There seemed to be a kind of balance between the three parties, and for a moment everything seemed to be quiet.

……

In this battle, the biggest beneficiary is Cao Ren.

This time, all the focus is on him.

skillfully used a clever plan to beat Zhou Yu to flee in panic. And I can't afford to get sick!

This made Cao Ren's fame as a world-famous general expand to the extreme.

It's just that Cao Ren knows it in his heart. The reason why he was able to win this time was because of Xu Tian, who had no last resort behind the scenes.

Cao Ren's admiration for Xu Tian has reached the point of no return, except for Cao Cao. The one who can convince him is Xu Tian.

And Pang Tong returned to Xiangyang with Yu Fei as soon as he won the victory.

In the first battle of Chibi, the pattern of Jingzhou has undergone tremendous changes.

Under Cao Cao's black-box operation, all that was consumed was the naval army that surrendered in Jingzhou.

The one who was most affected was the Cai family, which relied on military power.

And Cai Mao and Liu Cong and others, when Cao Cao evacuated. They were all taken to Xudu, and since then the Cai family has plummeted.

In their place are the two most recent families, the Lu family and the Yao family.

All this is of course the result that Xu Tian wants to see.

As a result, people from the two major families began to enter various institutions to fill important positions.

The two major families that controlled the grain and salt roads were protected by political forces from then on. The power is rising rapidly!

………

Lu Tianba knelt in the room excitedly, trembling faintly.

The man sitting in front of him never let his plan fail. There is nothing, almost to the point of exhaustion.

and then released him from prison, and returned to the beginning step by step.

Along the way, he was shocked or shocked! There is even a hint of fear!

All sorts of unheard of things came out one after another, and more importantly, he was able to influence the course of the war.

Cao Cao, who is now in a monstrous position, attaches great importance to him until he becomes the lord of Jingzhou.

And now, with a wave of his hand, the Lu family has reached an unprecedented peak.

This pile, one by one. It's not something that he Lu Tianba can imagine and do!

"Tianba!" Xu Tian, who was sitting in the room, looked at the person in front of him with a smile and slowly spoke. "Get up!"

Hearing Xu Tian's voice, Lu Tianba couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart.

Now the status is very different, even if Xu Tian smiles. can make him feel pressured and dare not look at him!

"Thanks... Xie Zhou Mu! Lu Tianba forced himself to stand up and stood aside respectfully.

"Let's call Mr." Xu Tian shook his head. "Tianba, now I have handed over the grain route and related market trade to you. You have to do it yourself!

You remember, with me, I won't embarrass your Lu family. However, I hope Tianba doesn't treat me as Liu Cong! ”

As he spoke, Xu Tian glanced at Lu Tianba casually. He smiled and left the house with his hands behind his back.

As soon as Xu Tian's words fell, Lu Tianba trembled and fell to his knees again.

Especially Xu Tian's last sentence fell on his heart like a heavy hammer.

He understands that this is a reminder and a warning!

Until Xu Tian left for a long time, Lu Tianba still knelt in the house and didn't get up for a long time...

……

Soon after Xu Tian returned to the mansion, he sent someone to summon Pang Tong.

"Meet the Lord!" Soon after, Pang Tong came to Xu Tianfang and bowed respectfully.

"Sir, please be seated!"

Xu Tian smiled.

"The lord just doesn't look for him, and he is about to come to meet him!"

As soon as he sat down, Pang Tong clenched his fists and said.

Now, although he has repelled Zhou Yu with the master's strategy. But the problem remains!

In the first battle of Chibi, the Jingzhou naval army suffered casualties. There are not many troops left, and they want to hold on for a long time. At the moment we are far from enough! ”

"yes!" Xu Tian nodded. "I've been thinking about it these days, too! What is your opinion? ”

"Yes!" Pang Tong touched his few beards and said with a smile. "Jingzhou has always been a place where heroes and heroes have come out, and now the lord is famous all over the world. Sitting on Jingxiang, as long as the lord issues an order to seek talent.

In this way, all the aspiring heroes see the sincerity of the lord. They will definitely come to take refuge! ”

"Good! But there's one more thing to do at the same time.

Food is the foundation of people's livelihood and the foundation of war needs.

Therefore, the development of agriculture and the recruitment of heroes should be carried out at the same time.

By the way, my husband helped me find a few people who have expertise in agricultural production. I'm of great use! ”

"The lord is wise!"

Pang Tong stood up and bowed.

……

After Pang Tong left, Xu Tian fell into deep thought.

Although he is sitting on Jing Xiang now, he also has a lot of problems.

Soldiers, food. Wenchen military general, he doesn't have any of these.

So it is imperative that he needs a lot of talent!

Xu Tian walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking about how to deal with it.

Unintentionally, he walked over to the wall where the map hung and looked at it casually.

Suddenly, he paused.

Silently looking back, he looked at a few places on the map.

On the map were the nine counties in the entire territory of Jingzhou, and Xu Tian's gaze swept back and forth over several of them.

After a moment, he burst out laughing.

He knew what he had to do, and Pang Tong was right. Jingzhou is a place rich in heroes and heroes!

At this moment, Yu Fei walked in from the door with food.

I happened to see Xu Tian standing in front of the map laughing.

Looking at it with a strange face, Yu Fei put down the food in his hand. Walked towards Xu Tian.

"Ever since you became a state pastor, you've been sleeping and eating every day. But watch your body! ”

Yu Fei sighed and said to Xu Tian.

I saw Yu Fei coming, and the fragrance of the food wafting in. Xu Tiancai found that it seemed that it was already past the time to eat.

"Big brother, you're here just in time, let's go out together!" Xu Tian pulled Yu Fei to the table and spoke.

Sighing secretly, Yu Fei said seemingly unintentionally. "yes, it's just the two of us going out now. Not like before, alas......"

Xu Tian took the chopsticks for a moment, but finally put them down.

Of course he knew what Yu Fei was talking about, for Yao Qing. He struggled for a long time, and the Yao family was like a mountain to him. The help of the family at the critical moment, coupled with Yao Qing's sincerity.

Xu Tian was silent for a long time. He picked up the chopsticks again and began to eat.

"Big brother, let's do the same as before this time!"

Yu Fei's eyes lit up and he smiled.
