Chapter 723: Crisis (bobfyr tips plus more)
Sun Ce announced the appointment, and those who had heard of Chen Deng's inauguration strategy had no opinion, but those who had not heard it were in an uproar, as Guo Jia said, Chen Zhi was good at everything, but he was too young and too young. Suddenly promoted him to Danyang Taishou, it was difficult to convince the public, and some generals of the pro-guard battalion had opinions. Compared with Chen Dao, they are much older. Although no one dared to say it in front of Sun Ce, there were a lot of discussions behind his back.
Sun Ce had already prepared, he held a meeting, and all the generals above the rank of the Qinwei Battalion and the Yicong Battalion Qu Junhou participated, and Zu Lang and Wei Teng also came, and when they heard Chen Zhi explain his strategy. After yesterday's drill, Chen Zhi had the confidence, and went back and pondered carefully for half the night, this time he said better, and all aspects were taken care of. Not only did he talk about it, but he also prepared a manuscript with some maps, illustrated and well-organized.
After listening to this, although they still had some opinions, they had to admit that Chen Zhi was a suitable candidate, and secretly regretted that he usually only cared about military training, did not pay attention to the study of government affairs, and missed a great opportunity.
Zu Lang was very excited after hearing this, and raised his hand to speak. "Does the general really want to build water conservancy in Danyang and raise troops in Tuntian?"
Sun Ce nodded. "It was my established plan to go to Tuntian in the south of the Yangtze River, but the war was tense, and the people of the Central Plains loved the land and refused to leave lightly, so it was delayed."
"What do you want from Jiangbei? We can do it. Zu Lang jumped up, and the spit star splashed the face of the person next to him. We are Danyang people, we are most familiar with the conditions here, and it is not a problem to play in the boat, but no one wants to take us with us. Even if some land is planted, the benefits are taken away by the government, and they can't support themselves. If you can farm, who wants to be a thief, although the mountains are safe, but they are miserable. ”
Everyone laughed, and Zu Lang also found that he had missed his mouth and touched his head embarrassedly.
Sun Ce thinks this plan is good.
Zu Lang collected the defeated soldiers, a total of more than 10,000 people, he only wanted to pick 2,000 with him, and the rest planned to be repatriated. Since Zu Lang is willing to Tuntian, he can't ask for it. The reason why Danyang's economy is not good, is not that the geographical conditions are not good, but that the development is insufficient, as far as the current situation is concerned, only some plains by the river have really been developed, and the places that go deeper are occupied by the Yue people.
In the eyes of the Han people, the Yue people were all barbarians, who did not obey the indoctrination, and either killed or captured as soldiers. The Yue people naturally did not want to accept such treatment, and if they couldn't beat it, they ran to the mountains in the south, and there was no population in the north, so they couldn't do anything they wanted. Later, the Central Plains was in turmoil, many people crossed the river, and the population increased, and Wu wanted to develop, but Danyang was a war zone, and the soldiers were in chaos.
Now the situation is different, Yuzhou is controlled by Sun Ce, and the battle line is maintained north of Huaishui, which will basically not affect Danyang, and there are conditions for Tuntian. It is not a problem to spend a few years in water conservancy and to make good preparations for flood prevention and self-sufficiency.
"Okay, or you will be the captain of Tuntian."
"I can't, I'm not interested in farming, I still want to fight with the general." Zu Lang shook his hand again and again. "But I can recommend someone, I have a township party named Xian Yucheng, who is still a scholar, he likes to do things like to farm the most, and what do you say this is economic and national economy...... The university of Jishi asked, what is it called agriculture. If he is allowed to come to Tuntian, he will definitely be able to do better than me. ”
Sun Ce smiled. "Okay, you invite him to come, if it is suitable, let him do things in Danyang Taishou Mansion and assist Shu Zhi."
Zu Lang was surprised and delighted. He himself is a general, and it has not been two days since he surrendered, and he recommended people to Sun Ce just with the attitude of giving it a try, and Sun Ce actually agreed, which made him very face-saving and responded happily.
Wei Teng watched from the sidelines, and couldn't help but be a little disdainful. What is this, a group of children are in their early twenties, they have no knowledge and no reputation, just because they are Sun Ce's cronies, they will be the Taishou of 2,000 stones all of a sudden, which is higher than the starting point of the children of the family. Did he do it? It's even more exaggerated here, a thief who has just surrendered can also recommend someone to be an official, it's just nonsense.
Sun Ce had been paying attention to Wei Teng, and when he saw Wei Teng's face of contempt, he smiled secretly in his heart. He is a celebrity, and he is middle-aged, where will he look at these young martial artists in his eyes. In his heart, the most qualified person to be the Taishou of Danyang is probably only himself, but he has just been captured, his identity is embarrassing, and he has no face to make a request, so he has to make this sour appearance.
In fact, even if Wei Teng mentioned it, he would not let Wei Teng be the Danyang Taishou. Wei Teng is famous, but he has no practical government ability, and he knows nothing about military affairs. Taking a step back, even if Wei Teng had the ability to be as civil and military as his father Wei Lang, he would not hand over Danyang to him. Wei Teng is a member of the party, and he is of the same mind as Yuan Shao, the position of Danyang is too important, how can it be handed over to him. He would rather let Chen Zhi make a mistake than let Wei Teng control it, and don't lead the wolf into the room again when the time comes.
He will use Wei Teng, but he will not let him get out of his control and lead a piece alone. Now, let's get hungry for him.

Yecheng, Guo Tu hurriedly walked into the back hall.
Yuan Shaozheng is playing with his youngest son Yuan Shang. Among his sons, Yuan Shang is undoubtedly the most beautiful, and Yuan Shao feels that he is the most like himself and loves him the most. It's just that because Yuan Tan's matter has not been very comfortable recently, many people have openly and secretly advised him to remind him of the harm of abolishing Chang Liyu, so that he doesn't dare to be too obvious, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the ministers. At present, the situation is severe, and we cannot afford to create external branches and cause internal divisions.
Mrs. Liu didn't understand this very well, so she was angry with him and ignored him for more than half a month. He was also happy to be quiet for a while, going to rest in the rooms of other concubines, and recently there was good news that two concubines were pregnant. This made him very satisfied, which is enough to prove that although he is not confused, he is not tired. It's just that in this way, Mrs. Liu is even more angry, and now she is still hiding in the house and not coming out.
Hearing the footsteps, Yuan Shao knew that it was Guo Tu, and only Guo Tu would come to the back hall. Guo Tu is his confidant, and he is good at being a man and can help him coordinate internal affairs. Tian Feng, trial and others don't have this ability.
"Gongzhi, why are you here?" Yuan Shao deliberately raised his voice while glancing at the inner room.
Guo Tu understood and said loudly: "There is an urgent matter to ask the lord to decide. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Yangzhou assassin Chen Wen died of illness, Lujiang Taishou Chen Deng, Danyang Taishou Zhou Xin died, Jiangnan has a tendency to collapse, please send cadres to Jiangnan to take office, so as not to be taken advantage of by Sun Ce."
Yuan Shao's brows furrowed, his face immediately darkened, and he glanced at Guo Tu dissatisfied. Guo Tu glanced at the inner room quietly. Yuan Shao took a look out of the corner of his eye, and saw the corner of his skirt exposed behind the door, and immediately understood what Guo Tu meant. Including Jiujiang Taishou Zhou Ang, Yangzhou lost one thorn at once, three Taishou, and four more vacancies, which can give Mrs. Liu a chance to alleviate the contradictions between their husband and wife. This is a good thing, of course, but the problem is that the loss is too great. Lujiang, Jiujiang, Danyang, plus Huiji, the six counties of Yangzhou have lost four counties, and the remaining two counties are also in danger, Yangzhou will soon be occupied by the Sun family and his son, where can he still be happy.
"How so?" Yuan Shao was furious. "The Zhou brothers are so incompetent, they lost even two counties in October, and even important places like Danyang?"
