"You said your name is Chen Qun, the words are long?" Zhao Feng looked at the Xiaopei County Order in front of him, and said with a look of disbelief. This person is only in his twenties, and he looks polite.

"Is there anything wrong with General Zhao?" Chen Qun looked at Zhao Feng so excited, and couldn't help but be curious.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just that when I traveled the world in the past, I once met someone who happened to have the same name as Chen Xianling." Zhao Feng said with his mouth, but in his heart, he turned the river and the sea: Chen Qun, the prime minister of Wei in history, almost on a par with Zhuge Liang of Shu Han and Zhang Zhao of Eastern Wu, is now standing in front of him so alive, but he can't let him run away.

Then, at Zhao Feng's insistence, Chen Qun and Zhao Feng went to Liu Bei's mansion to discuss matters together. Three days ago, Liu Bei led his troops to Xiaopei to station, and the day before yesterday he sent Zhao Yun away, and now it is basically temporarily stabilized, but a lot of problems are in front of Liu Bei and others.

First of all, the army, after several hard battles, Liu Bei led the 18,000 plain soldiers who came to the rescue, and there were only more than 12,000 left. Fortunately, Tao Qian still gave Liu Bei 4,000 Danyang elite soldiers as in history, plus the ambush that night defeated the Cao army, captured more than 5,000 prisoners, and now the total strength is still 22,000 people, but the composition of personnel is mixed, and it will take a certain amount of time to train and integrate.

The next thing is the problem of eating, and more than 20,000 mouths are really not something that Xiaopei, a small county town, can afford. Of course, Mi Zhu will be responsible for military logistics, but it is not Zhao Feng's style to open his mouth when he eats, and how to solve this problem is also one of the current priorities.

The last is the future development, now the situation is obvious, Tao Qian is determined to give Xuzhou to Liu Bei, except for Cao Bao, other people in Xuzhou are also looking forward to Liu Bei's entry into Xuzhou. But Zhao Feng didn't want to just wait for Tao Qian to die step by step, so he had to use the present to do something.

"My lord, now that we are obviously going to gain a foothold in Xuzhou, it is imperative that we send someone to inform Mr. Xianhe from Pingyuan County, so that he can come and join us. If the people of the plains are willing, they can also let them come, after all, Xuzhou has just been massacred, and the population has plummeted. Zhao Feng said first, Liu Bei nodded again and again, and completely agreed.

"But we already have tens of thousands of people now, Xian and them come over again, this problem of eating can be ......" Guan Yu did not continue, but anyone could hear the meaning of the words. Zhao Feng smiled, turned his head to Chen Qun and said: "Chen County Order, if it is combined with my method of deep cultivation and grain cultivation, how many people can be fed with Xiaopei in one place?" He deliberately gave Chen Qun a chance to perform.

Chen Qun really didn't eat dry rice, and after a little thought, he arched his hand towards Liu Bei and said: "Liu Yuanjun, although the plain is a county, it is a small county; Although Xiaopei is a county, it is a big county. Moreover, the land of Xiaopei is far more fertile than the plains, and as long as the people under the king's rule are willing to come here, the group can find a way to settle them. When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes also flashed, and his eyes were more eager when he looked at Chen Qun.

Zhao Feng then said: "Lord, since Tao Fujun has already praised the lord as the pastor of Yuzhou, why doesn't the lord go to Yuzhou?" In fact, this is also Zhao Feng's question, although Lao Liu is known as Liu Yuzhou in history, but I am afraid that he has never officially been the governor of Yuzhou from beginning to end, but later with the help of Liu Pi and Gong Du, he was entrenched in Runan for a few years, and always attacked Xuchang when Cao Ying and Yuan Shao clashed, and as a result, Cao Ying, who was annoyed, suddenly ran away to Jingzhou to defect to Liu Biao.

Sure enough, Liu Bei said: "Yuzhou is now desolate, deserted, and the land is barren, what should I do there?" Zhao Feng didn't react for a while, and Chen Qun told him carefully. It turned out that the predecessor of Yuzhou Assassin Shi Kong Xiu was also one of the princes of the Eighteenth Road crusade against Dong Zhuo. The year before last, he had a discord with Yuan Shu in Huainan and was defeated and killed by the latter's troops. In addition to Yuan Shu's occupation of several prefectures and counties in Yuzhou, Yingchuan was also occupied by Cao Ying, and the rest are almost all areas similar to Sanzhi. The close Yanzhou Cao Ying, Jingzhou Liu Biao, and Huainan Yuan Shu all ignored it, and the imperial court was still held hostage by Li Dao and Guo Yan, let alone careless, so they were all entrenched by the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army. All in all, the current Yuzhou is a mess. Even if Tao Qian asked Liu Bei for the title of Yuzhou pastor, it was not easy to be this state pastor.

"In that case, why don't we take advantage of this. The land is barren, but I believe that with me and Mr. Changwen, we can still feed the people. Zhao Feng thought for a while, and Liu Bei was also a little tempted when he heard it. But Zhang Fei said: "The problem is not only barren, but now there are thieves rampant, how to deal with it?" ”

"Don't worry about this, we finally have tens of thousands of soldiers. Even if you can't beat the entire Yuzhou, you can at least occupy a few counties. In particular, Runan connects Jingzhou, Yanzhou and Sizhou, and it is a battleground for soldiers. As for the Yellow Turban Army, with Zhongfu here, it shouldn't be difficult to ask him to come forward to persuade those people to surrender. Zhao Feng speculated.

"What the waves said is not bad, in this way, let's wait for Xianhe to come over and converge, and then find a way to pacify Yuzhou. Zhongfu, do you know the yellow scarf in Yuzhou? Liu Bei listened to Zhao Feng's analysis, especially when it came to the important surname of Runan, and immediately made up his mind to insert a lever here. Just for insurance, I still asked Guan Hai.

"Don't worry, the two biggest yellow turbans in Yuzhou are Liu Pi and Gong Du in Runan, as well as Liao Hua and Du Yuan in Woniu Mountain. All four of them are acquainted with me, and when I write to them, I tell them that the Lord is merciful, and that they will surely come and surrender. Guan Hai thought about it before saying, and everyone was relieved to hear this. At this time, Zhao Feng suddenly remembered that in history, Cao Ying sent a strategist to guard Runan, why is it that there are three things now?

Thinking about it, Bacheng still made Lao Cao suffer a big defeat in Xuzhou because of his butterfly effect, and now the army and Lu Bu are already a little difficult to fight Yanzhou again, and they can't mobilize the strength to take care of Runan for a while. "Hehe, you don't want Runan, I want it." Zhao Feng was proud of Cao Ying's unintentional calculation, and it was best for him and Lu Bu to fight together in Yanzhou. Of course, this is too idealistic.

For the next few days, everyone was busy. Liu Bei and Zhao Feng studied the map where to subdue Yuzhou first, after all, they were now short of troops, and it would not be good if there was a large-scale conflict with Yuan Shu in Huainan. That's a big guy level, don't mess with it for the time being, so some sensitive areas should be avoided first. Guan Hai was busy writing letters to his former colleagues in Yuzhou to persuade him to surrender, except for Liu Pi and Liao Hua, who were the big leaders, and all other kings of so-and-so mountains had to write, striving to fight as little as possible. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were busy reorganizing the prisoners and training the new army. As for Chen Qun, he was ready to settle the people brought by Jian Yong.

Half a month later, Jian Yong came with a large group of people. In addition to the original thousands of soldiers, more than 200,000 people in Pingyuan County, there were 150,000 people who followed Jian Yong to Xiaopei, so Xiaopei, who had just experienced Cao Yong's slaughter, which seemed a little barren, regained his popularity for a while.

At this time, it was already spring, and with Chen Qun's efforts, he finally had time to plant the grain. It is expected that when the summer grain is harvested, it will be able to enter Yuzhou. Before this, Zhao Feng and Liu Bei had also carefully studied the map. Yuzhou has jurisdiction over eight counties and three counties, namely Runan, Xiangcheng, Ruyin, Qiaojun, Chenjun, Yiyang, Yang'an and Yingchuan, as well as Peiguo, Lu and Liang. Among them, Lu and Pei are bordered by Xuzhou, the former also borders Taishan County in Qingzhou, and the latter also borders Huainan in Yuan Shu.

"It's a bit tricky!" Zhao Feng looked at the map and said with emotion. The state of Lu is just going back, but Peiguo is bordering Huainan, and now it is being guarded by Chen Lan under Yuan Shu, and once the fight starts, it will inevitably clash with Yuan Shu. But if you don't pocket Peiguo, it will be difficult to get involved in Liang and other places further west. The only way to do this is to open up a road in the north of Peiguo, bypass the core area of Peiguo, to rectify the western part of Yuzhou, and then oppress Yuan Shu with a two-sided attack after integrating forces.

"That's all there is to it." Liu Bei sighed after listening to Zhao Feng's analysis, after all, the strength in his hands was really insufficient. At the same time, news came from Jiangdong that after nearly two years of expeditions to the east and west, Sun Ce finally conquered the six counties of Jiangdong, and he was faintly a prince. And last month, he and his sworn brother Zhou Yu courted Qiao Xuan, a famous man who lived in seclusion in Anhui City, and married Qiao Xuan's pair of palm pearls - the famous Jiangdong Erqiao, which can be described as a spring breeze for a while.
