Jiangxia, inside the city. ***

Taishou Mansion, backyard.

A hundred-year-old tree stands tall in the sky, shielding it from the scorching sun.

Under the shade of the tree, Wang Can, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xu Shu sat down separately and were talking about the affairs after the pacification of Jiangxia. Now, Wang Can has taken Nanyang, Xiangyang, Jiangxia, occupied the three counties of Jingzhou, successfully won the land of Jingbei, and won Jiangxia, the important land of Jingzhou, which can be regarded as pacifying half of Xiangyang.

The rest is to subdue the remaining counties that are not well known.

Jia Xu took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Lord, Jingbei is pacified, Xiangyang is pacified, Jiangxia is stable, the situation in Jingzhou has become a foregone conclusion, and only one general needs to be dispatched to sweep the rest of Jingzhou." Now that the overall situation has been decided, when will the troops be collected and returned to Chengdu? ”

Wang Can asked, "Wenhe, why do you want to go back to Chengdu?" ”

Jia Xu said solemnly: "It has been half a year since the attack on Xiangyang this time, and although the morale of our soldiers is still high, they are also tired. In addition, food and ordnance are consumed enormously, and it takes a period of time to recuperate. ”

Wang Can said in a deep voice: "As the saying goes, Jingzhou is rich and can raise millions of soldiers, and when Liu Biao governed Xiangyang, Xiangyang was prosperous and rich, which provided us with enough food, grass and soldiers, even if we didn't return to Chengdu, we could keep the soldiers going." Moreover, we have only pacified the land of Jingbei, and the counties of Jingnan have not been pacified, so we cannot take it lightly. ”

Wang Can summoned a few people to discuss the matter of Jingnan.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Lord, Wen He is extremely intelligent, just need Wen He's brain to move, you can take the land of Jingnan." ”

Jia Xu scolded with a smile: "Guo Fengxiao, the old man didn't mess with you, right?" ”

Xu Shu was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and quipped: "Boss, you have a confident mind and a mature plan to say it directly, it's a pity to hide it in your heart, so as not to make an expedition for the master." ”

Wang Can said: "Wenhe, what can you do, let's hear it." ”

Jia Xu arched his hand and said: "Lord, the Taishou of Jingnan are all imaginary, even if some people are a little capable, it is difficult to turn out the palm of the lord's hand." The lord defeated Cao Cao and retired Sun Jian, achieving supreme prestige. As soon as Liu Biao died, the Taishou in the rest of Jingzhou must have been uneasy in their hearts, and the lord sent an edict to send them to join them, showing that they had no courage to resist. ”

Guo Jia said: "The lord is pointing to the flag, and the wind is attached!" ”

Wang Can laughed and said: "You say this, I am wondering if Cao Cao and Sun Jian will also surrender directly after seeing my banner." ”

After a pause, Wang Can said: "Just follow Wenhe's method and send an envoy to pass the order." If these people do not join, hundreds of thousands of troops will be killed and immediately come to the city, and it will be impossible for them to surrender. ”

Xu Shu thought for a while and said, "My lord, I think that before sending the envoy, I can still spread the news that the lord defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian. Although our army won, it is also a recent thing, even if the Taishou of Jingnan counties know the lord and know that the lord is strong, but many people are closed to the news and do not know what happened, so it is necessary to create an invincible image of the lord, so that the people think that the lord is invincible, which will put pressure on the princes of each county and increase the possibility of the princes of Jingnan counties returning to obedience. ”

Wang Can stroked his palms and smiled: "Yuan's straightforward words are reasonable, just do it!" ”

At that moment, Wang Can called Shi A and asked Shi A to send people around to deliver the news. Subsequently, Wang Can sent five envoys to Nanjun, Guiyang County, Lingling County, Wuling County, and Changsha County respectively to deliver messages.

However, among the five counties, Changsha County is different.

Sun Jian did not die as early as in history, he was the Taishou of Changsha from the beginning, and Sun Jian started with Changsha County, and finally occupied the land of Jiangdong. Sun Jian moved the capital to Wu County, busy pacifying the counties in Jiangdong, Liu Biao took the opportunity to send troops to attack Changsha, although Changsha was finally subdued, but it was not Liu Biao's credit, it was Jia Xu and Shi A who assisted from it, and took Changsha County.

Wang Can sent envoys from the Five Routes to deliver a message, hoping to subdue the Five Routes army and solve the matter in Jingnan.

……

Nangun, Taishou House.

The envoys sent by Wang Can were the first to arrive in Nanjun and meet with Nanjun Taishou.

The people of Wang Can's faction had low official positions and were just ordinary civil officials, but they attracted the great attention of the Nanjun Taishou. Even Nanjun Taishou tended to curry favor with the messengers who delivered the message, and directly submitted to Wang Can.

The Shu army was strong, and Nanjun Taishou did not dare to resist.

……

Changsha County, too Shoufu!

After Wang Can's envoy arrived, he met with Taishou Han Xuan.

Han Xuan is an important minister under Liu Biao, but he can serve as the Taishou of Changsha because of the help of Jia Xu and Gan Ning, so he can successfully gain a foothold in Changsha. Han Xuan's heart was towards Liu Biao and he was unwilling to submit to Wang Can, but Han Xuan had been in contact with Gan Ning and Jia Xu, and knew the strength of the Shu soldiers, so he didn't dare to resist.

Wang Can's envoy explained his intention, Han Xuan held a banquet to entertain the envoy, and then generously expressed his submission.

In this way, Changsha submitted to Wang Can.

……

Wuling County, Taishou Mansion.

Wuling Taishou Jin Xuan doesn't know much about Wang Can, but he definitely knows a lot about the Shu army.

Wuling County is close to Wuxi, close to Wuximan, and even often deals with Wuximan. Jin Xuan knew that Wuxi was powerful, brave and good at fighting, barbaric and vulgar, robbing and plundering, which gave Jin Xuan a headache. But such a powerful barbarian was packed up by Xu Shu, Pang De and Yan Yan so that he could only hide in the mountains and forests and did not dare to appear, which can be seen.

Jin Xuan saw Xu Shu's power, but Xu Shu was just a strategist under Wang Can.

It can be inferred from this that Wang Can's strength is unfathomable.

Even if Jin Xuan was reluctant in his heart, he did not dare to disobey Wang Can, plus Wuling County bordered Shu State, if the army of Shu State was killed from Qiqi County and Ba County, the first thing would be to attack Wuling County. Jin Xuan has soldiers and fierce generals in his hands, but he only has one county and cannot compete with Shu.

Jin Xuan met with the envoys, and finally returned to the table.

……

In Lingling County, Liu Du entertained the envoys in the house.

Liu Du has always been in control of Lingling County, has not experienced wars, and has lived a fairy-like life.

After Wang Can's envoy arrived, Liu Du knew that his happy days were over, and it was impossible for him to continue serving in Lingling County. At the banquet, Liu Du even asked him about his next position, and he was ready to leave, but the envoy who sent the message did not know Wang Can's arrangement, but just conveyed Wang Can's order and asked Liu Du to ask for surrender, only one thing.

Liu Du couldn't ask about anything, so he had to obediently go to the table.

In the end, Liu Du handed over the power of Lingling County and was willing to submit to it.

……

Guiyang County, Taishou's name is Zhao Fan.

Wang Can's envoy arrived in Guiyang County, and the news of the return of Nanjun, Wuling County, Changsha County, and Lingling County in the north had spread, and Zhao Fan knew that the four counties were attached to Wang Can, and his heart was even colder.

The four counties were annexed, and he was unable to support it alone.

If Nan County, Wuling County, Changsha County and Lingling County hold up, he can still hold on.

However, the four counties surrendered, and Zhao Fan knew that the general trend had gone.

Historically, Liu Bei sent people to attack the four counties of Wuling, Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang, because Liu Bei's strength was lonely and widowed, the Taishou of the four counties began to resist, and Zhao Fan, the Taishou of Guiyang County, was unwilling to surrender.

However, Wang Can's situation is different, Wang Can sits on the land of Shu, and has Liangzhou and Jingbei, and his strength is strong. In addition, there are countless peerless ministers under Wang Can's command, and there are fierce generals who are brave and crowned in the world, retreat from Cao Cao several times, and defeat Sun Jian, the head snake in Jiangdong, which has made Zhao Fan rise to the idea of not daring to resist.

Once Zhao Fan raised troops to resist, it would definitely attract Wang Can's hundreds of thousands of troops, and Zhao Fan would not be able to stop it at all. Zhao Fan greeted Wang Can's envoy and gave him a careful treat before attaching the table.

In this way, the major counties of Jingzhou became the territory under Wang Can's rule.
