Moving people has never been a simple task, and as Wang Chong sent the letter back to Anhui City, Lu Su, Zhuge Jin, Yan Xiang and other Jinfan officials began to get busy again.

On the way to Huainan, Wang Chong found Zhang Xiu and officially appointed him as the Taishou of Shouchun, commanding 8,000 soldiers to guard Shouchun, and in addition, he also reassigned the general Hu Che'er to Zhang Xiu's command.

Zhang Xiu's task was similar to that in Nanyang, that is, to resist Cao's army, the only difference was that Wang Chong did not give him any death order to keep Shouchun, but only told him that if he found that Shouchun could not be defended, he would immediately withdraw his troops and retreat south to Hefei.

Because of Wang Chong's policy of shifting the center of gravity to the south, the Huainan region north of Hefei is destined to be sparsely populated and the land is barren, which will be an important buffer zone to isolate Jinfan and Cao's army, Shouchun is close to the Central Plains, Cao Cao will send troops to take it sooner or later, so Wang Chong does not have any hard requirements for Zhang Xiu, if he can keep it, he will give it to Cao Cao if he can't keep it, anyway, Hefei at that time may have been built into an unbreakable military fortress, so Shouchun will naturally become dispensable, and he doesn't have to feel any regret if he loses it.

Zhang Xiu didn't have the slightest resistance to this, anyway, he was used to it, and his only request was to hope that Wang Chong could keep his fifteen-year-old son Zhang Quan by his side as a personal guard.

Wang Chong was speechless, what did this Nima treat me as a place? Is there a shelter for teenagers? First a Ding Feng, then a Mei Cheng, and now there is a Zhang Quan, I don't know who else will be in the future.

Wang Chong thought about it, and finally agreed, in fact, he didn't have any reason to refuse, because this was obviously a way for Zhang Xiu to express his loyalty, Zhang Quan was Zhang Xiu's only son, and he left his only son by Wang Chong's side, just to prove that he was wholeheartedly loyal to Wang Chong, and there would be no other bad intentions.

After getting Zhang Xiu, Wang Chong's next target is Tai Shici.

After getting along for a few days, Tai Shici's loyalty to Sun Ce has dropped to 55, but his good impression of Wang Chong has been as high as 93, Wang Chong feels that the time is ripe for him to speak.

When Tai Shici entered the big tent of the Chinese army and saw that Wang Chong was the only one in the tent, he was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately realized that what he had been unwilling to face was probably difficult to avoid today.

"Ziyi, it seems that you have already guessed my intention to call you over this time, so I won't beat around the bush." Sensing the change in the expression on Tai Shici's face, Wang Chong sighed and said, "My mind, Ziyi should have known it a long time ago, the reason why I didn't speak for a long time was because I didn't want Ziyi to be too embarrassed, but this matter, it is not a way to drag on like this, these days I Jinfan and Cao Cao have been fighting, Ziyi has contributed a lot, this matter will reach Sun Ce's ears sooner or later, when the time comes, whether you want to or not, Jiangdong will treat you as a traitor, you are not caught in a dilemma on both sides, it is better to join me Jinfan like Youping Gongyi, Serve me Wang Chong, after such a long time of getting along, Ziyi should also know my personality, what Sun Ce can give you, I can also give, and what I can give you, Sun Ce may not be able to give! ”

Hearing this, Tai Shici fell into a long silence, in fact, before this, he had already struggled thousands of times between Wang Chong and Sun Ce in his heart, although he himself did not understand very well, but with the migration of time, his inner choice was indeed more and more biased towards Wang Chong, this time he went to Nanyang with Wang Chong, and there were even many times during which he almost blurted out Wang Chong's lord like Wei Yan and them.

What does this mean? This means that deep in his heart, he has already recognized Wang Chong, and the reason why he has not been able to make a decision for a long time is nothing more than that he still has a trace of guilt for Sun Ce in his heart.

"Shaolin, do you remember the night you captured me, the bet between you and me?"

A touch of pain flashed on Wang Chong's face: "In other words, if Sun Ce doesn't die, Ziyi will never serve my Jinfan?" ”

Tai Shi Ci shook his head: "No, I mean, I can join Jinfan, but if Wu Hou doesn't die for a day, I won't help Jinfan attack Jiangdong for a day!" ”

"......" At this time, Wang Chong's mood was like riding a roller coaster, and suddenly changed from great sorrow to great joy, this kind of excitement that almost fainted, his whole heart was about to jump out of his throat, for fear that Tai Shi Ci would regret it, he hurriedly agreed, "Okay, Ziyi's request is not too much, I promise you!" ”

"So ......" Tai Shi Ci hooked a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Wang Chong, "The last general Tai Shi Ci, see the lord!" ”

"Ziyi, please get up!" Wang Chong quickly stepped forward to help Tai Shi Ci, and then he was relieved and punched Tai Shi Ci in the chest, and scolded with a smile, "Do you know that just now, I was almost scared out of my illness by you?" ”

Tai Shici also smiled: "This can only mean that the lord's heart is not strong enough!" ”

Wang Chong looked at Tai Shici with great sincerity: "Ziyi is wrong, my heart has always been as hard as a rock, but this time, I am really afraid of losing Ziyi so gaffe!" ”

Tai Shi Ci was moved in his heart: "The love and righteousness of the lord, the mercy is remembered in his heart, he will bow down and do his best every day, and he will never give up!" ”

Wang Chong smiled: "I don't want you to die, if you die, who else will fight for me?" ”

Tai Shi Ci pouted and said, "Isn't there still Gandudu?" ”

"Tsk, you are so careful!" Wang Chong smiled angrily, "It was just a misunderstanding at the beginning, if my brother learned that Ziyi had joined Jinfan, I am afraid he would be happier than anyone else!" ”

Tai Shi Ci shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Maybe! ”

Wang Chong said: "Okay, back to the point, Ziyi, you have been in Liaodong for many years, you should be quite familiar with the cavalry under Gongsun Zhan, this time, I am going to appoint you as the general of Yangwei Zhonglang and lead the Jinfan cavalry, how about it?" Do you have the confidence to train them into a crack army? ”

Tai Shi Ci frowned and said: "The Northwest cavalry under General Zhang's command is already quite elite in itself, and when the lord mentions Gongsun Zhan, doesn't he want to build it into a white horse like the wind, riding and shooting unparalleled light cavalry?" ”

Wang Chong nodded and said: "Yes, with the current conditions of my Jinfan, it is not enough to build heavy cavalry on a large scale, there are few war horses in the south, and with such a powerful light horse, it is enough to be invincible on both sides of the Jianghuai River!" ”

Tai Shi Ci said with confidence: "Don't worry, the lord can rest assured, this cavalry itself has a very good foundation, just give the last general a few months, let alone cross the Jianghuai, even if you go to fight with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's cavalry, it is enough to win!" ”

Wang Chong patted Tai Shici on the shoulder and said with a smile: "With Ziyi's words, I am relieved!" ”
