No. 639 Jingzhou's Hidden Worries 3
And more importantly, the last of Fu Tong's suggestions can be connected with a recent event in Xiangyang, which is that Kuai Liang previously posted a famous post to gather the young and handsome people of Jingzhou to go to the north of Nanyang County to participate in the task of migrating the people.
With Fu Tong's proposal, if anyone has a good performance in the task of migrating the people, he can get the position of county commander in the more important counties of the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River. Moreover, Liu Biao can also take advantage of this opportunity to gather the loyalty of some of the Jingzhou Han scholars.
When Cai Mao first saw Fu Tong's suggestion, he already realized that once Liu Biao adopted these three suggestions.
Especially the last one, it is extremely important for Liu Biao's subordinates, because this is an excellent opportunity to install their own people in the four counties of Jiangnan and cultivate their young reserves. Then, this time, those families inside and outside Xiangyang City who openly and secretly refused Kuailiang's invitation, they fell behind from the beginning in this wave of redistribution of power in the four counties of Jiangnan.
This is also the most important reason why Cai Mao and Zhang Yun have pushed the entire family to actively participate in the task of migrating the people. Because, after reading Fu Tong's letter, the two of them had already expected that this time, Liu Biao would fully adopt Fu Tong's suggestion.
Sure enough, after pondering for a moment, Liu Biao immediately asked Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to nominate candidates, and it was also the first step for Liu Biao to gradually regain control of the four southern counties of Jingzhou, which was suitable for the candidates to serve as county governors in the four counties of Jiangnan.
These four people who went to the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River to serve as county governors had the heaviest tasks, especially the county governors of Changsha County, who had to directly face strong pressure from Zhang Xian.
In fact, in history, Zhang Xian's influence in the four counties of Jiangnan, as well as his reputation among the people, far exceeded Liu Biao's estimates.
After Liu Biao asked, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun secretly glanced at each other, the two were old partners, and they quickly understood each other's thoughts.
Zhang Yun bowed to Liu Biao, and was the first to reply: "Lord Qi, my subordinates want to recommend two people to you." It is Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng, Zhang Hu has a good relationship with his subordinates, and he is Huang Zu's old subordinate, so his subordinates think that it is most appropriate for Zhang Hu to serve as the governor of Wuling County.
As for Chen Sheng, Huang Taishou and Zhang Hu both left Jiangxia County, and leaving him there alone would not only be a little disadvantageous to Wen Taishou, but at the same time, it would also make Chen Sheng inevitably have superfluous thoughts. Therefore, his subordinates thought that they should simply take advantage of this opportunity to promote Chen Sheng to the post of governor of Guiyang County. ”
Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng, these two people had already led troops to entrench in Jiangxia County before Liu Biao fully controlled the entire Jingzhou, to put it bluntly, they were in a similar situation to Gan Ning, and they were called Jiangxia thieves. After Liu Biao used the power of Cai Mao and the Kuai brothers to destroy the other small warlords in Jingzhou, only Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu gathered to occupy Xiangyang.
So, Liu Biao sent Kuai Yue and Pang Ji to Xiangyang alone, and successfully said that they had surrendered to the two. After that, Liu Biao incorporated the two of them into Huang Zu's command and went to Jiangxia together.
Because they are both surnamed Zhang, and Zhang Yun is not only Liu Biao's nephew, but also a general that Liu Biao relies on very much, therefore, in private, Zhang Hu made great efforts to tie up Zhang Yun, so the personal relationship between the two is very good.
With this relationship, coupled with the fact that Zhang Hu had been Huang Zu's subordinate, Liu Biao appointed Zhang Hu as the governor of Wuling County, presumably Huang Zu would not care too much. And Chen Sheng, who was born as a thief, led troops to fight, and surrendered his subordinates to have his own set, so Zhang Yun recommended him to serve as the governor of Guiyang County, otherwise Chen Sheng would continue to stay in Jiangxia County and hinder civil employment, and he could borrow his ability to secretly monitor every move of the Taishou of Guiyang County.
Once there is a change in Guiyang County, Chen Sheng can also use the fastest time to implicate or even put down the rebellion in Guiyang County.
In real history, Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng did not die at the hands of Han Dang and Sun Jian, and it is highly likely that the two of them died in Sun Quan's previous battles against Jiangxia County.
After Zhang Yun finished recommending, he retreated to the side, and Cai Yao only took a step forward and also recommended to Liu Biao: "Lord Qiyu, there is a younger brother under him, named Cai Fa, who has been serving in the army in the Chinese New Year's Eve this year. The subordinates have always known that my younger brother is still capable, so his subordinates recommended Cai Fa to serve as the governor of Lingling County. ”
Cai Mao's two younger brothers, Cai Zhong and Cai He have served as the governor of Jiangxia County and Nanyang County respectively, and now, Cai Mao wants to recommend his other younger brother. This is Cai Mao's intention to ask Zhang Yun to recommend the two to Liu Biao first.
There is a precedent for Zhang Yun recommending Zhang Hu, so when Liu Biao didn't care too much about Cai Mao's recommendation, he always carried private goods.
Choking and Strange Novels|w~w~w.
"Very good!" After listening to this, Liu Biao nodded, which was regarded as the recommendation of the two, but he then asked the two of them an important question about the abundance, and said, "Then who do you two think should be the governor of Changsha County?" ”
The reason why Cai Mao and Zhang Yun both chose to avoid talking about the candidates for the post of governor of Changsha County is because they actually know better than Liu Biao that Zhang Xian's status in Changsha County is not something that ordinary people can shake at all. Even Liu Pan, who has always been known for his bravery, was suppressed by Zhang Xian when he served in Youxian County, Changsha County.
Historically, Liu Pan caused a lot of trouble to Sun Ce in Youxian County, Changsha County, Sun Ce divided six counties such as Haidu, appointed Tai Shici as the commander of Jianchang, stationed there, and successfully contained Liu Pan's offensive.
In this, although Tai Shici led the troops but left very much, there is another reason inside, that is, the Taishou of Changsha County has secretly been curbing the expansion of Liu Pan's power and the growth of his strength in Youxian County.
This time, it was Cai Mao's turn to speak first, he thought for a while, and replied: "Lord Qiyu, it is said that it is most appropriate for General Liu to serve as the governor of Changsha County, but Fancheng is more important now, and General Liu is indispensable at all. Therefore, his subordinates thought that General Xiao Liu could be appointed as the governor of Changsha County. ”
The big General Liu in Cai Mao's mouth refers to Liu Pan, while the little General Liu refers to Liu Biao's other nephew, Liu Hu.
Liu Pan and Liu Hu are both Liu Biao's subordinates, and there is not much age difference between the two, but except for being able to speak well, Liu Pan is significantly ahead of Liu Hu in almost all other aspects.
Although Liu Hu's name has the word 'tiger', his personal martial arts ability is far inferior to Liu Pan.
