Zhang Xiang would not have thought that his generosity would have such a result, and when Zhang Xiang heard the wind, it would be too late, and he had known that Zhang Xiang would be blocked by the waves behind, so that Xu You would not be under Yuan Shao's command.

Yuan Xi stayed in Youzhou and became his own overlord, naturally Feng Ao also stayed in Youzhou, which was very different from Yang Xu's expectations, and Yang Xu could only settle for the next best thing and chose to let Feng Ao stay by Yuan Xi's side.

Controlling Yuan Xi's forces, Feng Ao is still very confident in this, Yuan Xi does not have many generals around him, and it is only Feng Ao who can handle it, not to mention that Feng Ao saved Yuan Xi at sea.

Therefore, Yuan Xi also trusts Feng Ao very much, and Feng Ao has also become the number one general under Yuan Xi, Yang Xu is also preparing for Zhang Xiang's next attack on Youzhou, Yang Xu is a strategist is naturally a little more long-term than Zhang Xiang thought.

Now Zhang Xiang's troubles are still in Yongzhou, although most of Li Wei's remnants have surrendered, but there are still some in the disaster area, because it is winter, so these people are also active.

Zhang Xiang's army can't move lightly, so he can only rely on the local county soldiers to solve these people, but Li Wei's subordinates are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and the county soldiers are not opponents at all, and most of the county soldiers in Yongzhou are composed of local families.

It looks like a point, but in fact he won't be desperate, Zhang Xiang only roughly controlled Yongzhou with troops, but the local control is insufficient, especially the people of these families.

Each has its own thoughts, let them go to fight against the remnants of Li Wei's soldiers, they will not do it, these families are more slippery than the other, and they are the first to move Zhang Xiang after the beginning of spring.

Zhang Xiang can only get an army to guard the place in Yongzhou, that is, the so-called militia, the militia is stationed in all villages and townships, and you have to get a little money to protect the township, so the young men in all townships and villages have joined the militia.

In winter, there is no need to be busy with farming, the young men in all townships and villages have nothing to do, and the appearance of the militia has mobilized them, in fact, these militias are the preparations that Zhang Xiang used to replace the county soldiers.

The family's private soldiers are indeed very powerful, but unfortunately disobedient, Zhang Xiang is not afraid that these militia do not know martial arts, and they will not be able to learn, what they are afraid of is those who are disobedient and those with bad intentions.

It will only be more difficult to rectify Yongzhou, although Yongzhou is also a border state, but it is also the ancient capital of the Han Dynasty, there are many forces entrenched here, and they can live under Dong Zhuo and Li Wei.

Naturally, he can survive under Zhang Xiang's hands, these are Zhang Xiang's biggest problems, Zhang Xiang originally thought that it would be over after surviving this winter, but he didn't expect these families to be so restless.

Zhang Xiang placed some soldiers in various counties of Yongzhou, and naturally he had to be responsible for their grain and grass, and Zhang Xiang couldn't count on the local grain and grass and didn't want to count on it, but he was robbed on the way to transport grain and grass.

Zhang Xiang didn't believe that these were done by Li Dao's remnants, without the support of the local family, they didn't know when the grain and grass from Bingzhou would arrive, not to mention that Li Dao's men had been scared by the Bingzhou army.

How dare you tease the tiger's whiskers? And the dead clothes of those soldiers don't look like they were made by Liangzhou people at all, Liangzhou people have been dealing with Hu people all year round, so they are extremely ruthless, but the wounds of these dead soldiers are not like them.

Zhang Xiang can conclude that these things must have nothing to do with these families, it seems that these families are trying to make a move! Zhang Xiang's guess was not wrong, this was indeed done by the local family in Yongzhou, in order to test Zhang Xiang's bottom line.

When Dong Zhuo entered Yongzhou, they also tried it, but in the end Dong Zhuo did not track it down, in fact, it was not that Dong Zhuo did not investigate, but that Dong Zhuo didn't know at all, and everything was wiped out when Li Ru arrived.

Many of these families existed in the Western Han Dynasty, and the heritage of these families is extraordinary, Dong Zhuo has offended many families by burning Luoyang, and Li Ru doesn't want Dong Zhuo's people to offend more.

This is not as simple as having a lot of debts, but Zhang Xiang didn't want to let them go easily, these families had already angered Zhang Xiang, and Zhang Xiang sent additional men to Yongzhou on the pretext of exterminating the remnants of Li Dao's forces.

In order to play a deterrent role, Zhang Xiang will have to deal with these families sooner or later, these families are not like those small families in the state, which can be eliminated in one fell swoop, which will lead to big chaos.

Dong Zhuo has hundreds of thousands of Liangzhou troops, and he controls the little emperor, why Dong Zhuo ended up like this in the end, it is because Dong Zhuo has caused public anger, and he has infringed on the interests of these clans.

To deal with these families, it can only be soft and hard, Zhang Xiang decided to use tough means to suppress Yongzhou in this winter, and only show favor to these families when the spring flowers bloom, so as to stabilize these families.

These families do have a lot of talents, and the poor family can indeed produce talents, and there may even be some top talents, but a large number of useful talents are in the hands of these families.

When I thought of the talent, Zhang Xiang thought of Guo Jia, since Zhang Xiang returned to Bingzhou, Zhang Xiang had never seen Guo Jia, and Guo Jia did not take the initiative to come to the door, as if the gambling contract had not happened at all.

Zhang Xiang didn't want to see Guo Jia, but saw that he was a little bottomless, when the casualties were counted after the war, Zhang Xiang found that there were many casualties in the first battle of Yongzhou, and there were not many casualties in the state army, and Zhang Xiang felt that he had lost.

Naturally, he didn't have the face to see Guo Jia, Zhang Xiang could actually kill someone who didn't admit it, but Guo Jia was too smart, Zhang Xiang wouldn't take this step until he had to, Guo Jia didn't leave, and he didn't know what Guo Jia's idea was.

Zhang Xiang has been sending people to pay close attention to Guo Jia's movements, and just when Zhang Xiang was thinking about Guo Jia, the person sent to monitor suddenly came back and told Zhang Xiang something Guo Jia fell ill again.

scared Zhang Xiang, when this soldier came back, Zhang Xiang thought Guo Jia was leaving? It turned out that he was sick, and it was good news for Zhang Xiang to fall ill, at least Guo Jianeng stayed in Bingzhou.

Staying in Bingzhou means that Zhang Xiang still has hope, Zhang Xiang also knows that Guo Jia is not in good health, but he doesn't want to die because of this minor illness, and I'm afraid Zhang Xiang won't be able to find a place to cry at that time.

Zhang Xiang took Ge Fang to visit Guo Jia, but after arriving at that place, Guo Jia was drinking like a nobody, and Zhang Xiang immediately realized that the person he sent to monitor had been tricked.

It seems that Guo Jia wants to see himself in this move, but he has already come, and Zhang Xiang is not stage frightened at all, Zhang Xiang directly asked Ge Fang to check Guo Jia's body, Zhang Xiang's face is quite thick.

Guo Jia and Ge Fang are also old acquaintances, Guo Jia has been in Bingzhou for almost a year, Guo Jia has poor physique and often gets sick, and Ge Fang came to treat him, so Guo Jia did not resist.

Letting Ge Fang diagnose and treat, Guo Jia looked at Zhang Xiang who arrived, "Zhang Zhoumu, you can be counted as coming, I don't know if you still remember our original gambling contract, I have been waiting for a long time." ”

Zou He next to him has been giving Guo Jia a look, but now Guo Jia has only one Zhang Xiang in his eyes, Zhang Xiang has already thought about this problem when he came, and naturally has some countermeasures, "Feng Xiao can't help but fall under my command." ”

Guo Jia: "I think Zhangzhou Mu misunderstood, Yongzhou's battle report is clear, although the battle report sent back has been covered up a little, but it can't escape my eyes, and I should have won the bet." ”

Zhang Xiang: "The gambling contract is just a verbal agreement, this is actually not important, the important thing is that I got Yongzhou, and now my subordinates occupy Yongzhou and look down on the Central Plains, it is enough to do something, Fengxiao is really unwilling to help me?" ”

Guo Jia: "The power of the state pastor is indeed good, but it is similar to the power of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Sun Jian, why do you have to choose you?" Zhang Xiang gave an answer that Guo Jia did not expect.

Zhang Xiang: "Because I am young, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Sun Jian are both middle-aged, I can consume them to death even if I waste time, Sun Jian is in the south, he wants to chase the Central Plains, the innate gap in the south is that he can't make up for it, Cao Cao is in the land of four wars, he can be destroyed at any time, unless he takes Yuan Shao, it is impossible to soar into the sky, Yuan Shao's territory is the most stable, but unfortunately Yuan Shao's character is too indecisive, not enough to succeed at all, as for the other princes, I don't care." ”

Guo Jia: "But Yongji Erzhou also has its own problems, at least the state pastor has not mastered Yongzhou, is it too arrogant for the state pastor to despise the heroes of the world, is your character enough to succeed?" ”

Zhang Xiang: "If I didn't have confidence in myself, I wouldn't have embarked on this path, I just despised them in my heart, but when they became my opponents, I never dared to despise them." ”

Guo Jia: "If I say no, I'm going to die." In fact, this question is what Zhang Xiang has been thinking about, and Zhang Xiang has already had the answer in his heart, but Zhang Xiang just doesn't want to think about it.

Zou He also became nervous, he didn't know Zhang Xiang's answer, but the atmosphere at this time had dropped to a low point, it was even colder than outside, and this aura was coming from Zhang Xiang.

Zhang Xiang has been commanding operations all year round, and human life has become a chess piece in Zhang Xiang's eyes, and the murderous aura on his body is extremely strong.

This kind of murderous aura is too familiar to them, after all, they have always been by Zhang Xiang's side, as soon as Zhou Cang Zhang Ding rushed in, Zhang Xiang gave an answer, "Yes, I won't let you leave the state with someone like you." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Cang and Zhang Ding immediately took action, they didn't know how Guo Jia offended Zhang Xiang, but they knew that whoever offended Zhang Xiang would die, and Zhang Ding had already guessed something.

So he didn't make a dead hand, Zhou Cang was a dead eye, and he pressed Guo Jia with one hand, Guo Jia's body was too thin, and he was slapped on the ground by Zhou Cang, looking very embarrassed. (To be continued.) )
