According to Xu Ji's expected requirements, his administrative office would definitely not be placed far away from Yingchuan, and it was best to be able to border, so that they could support each other more quickly. It is obvious, then, that once again, the options are narrowed. The remaining choices are also the four counties of Weishi, Fugou and Yuxian.

And Xu Ji's favorite Yongqiu was discouraged by Xu Ji because of his proximity to Taichenliu County. After all, it is better to avoid Zhang Miao for his small actions, and no one can guarantee that Zhang Miao will really be unmoved by what Xu Ji does in private. Xu Ji didn't want to take too much risk, and the huge trouble caused by the side would greatly delay the progress of Xu Ji's plan. If he didn't have so many plans, then he could have ruled with Zhang Miao in Chenliu County, because this would be more convenient to communicate with Zhang Miao.

Xu Ji finally decided to place his seat in Yu County, which is the center south of Chenliu County, which can be regarded as a gesture of goodwill to Zhang Miao, which means that Xu Ji will bear the pressure of Chenliu's defense in the south. Even if Xu Ji decided to run the entire Chen Liu, it was obvious that this matter did not conflict with the overtures to Zhang Miao at this time. Xu Ji needed someone in front of him to bear the pressure on him before he was strong enough, after all, his true purpose was not suitable for showing it on the surface at this time, and only a sharp arrow hidden in the shadows was enough to kill him with one blow. In fact, Xu Ji's seemingly depressing decision can still make his actual control of the territory larger than that of another superintendent who may have it.

There were eight counties under the rule of Chen Liunan, including Zhisuo Yu County: Weishi, Fugou, Jiwu, Xiangyi, Yongqiu, Yuxian, Waihuang and Kaoyu. And Xu Ji controls this entire area, although Xu Ji does not actually control this area at this time, but Xu Ji has already started his own plan.

Of course, these are all empty talk before Zhang Miao arrives, Xu Ji still needs to wait for the arrival of this county guard, and then Xu Ji will hand over his appointment to prove that he can officially take office with his Taishou seal, and before that, Xu Ji is nothing more than a filial piety. However, for Chen Liu's current situation, whether Zhang Miao can control it or not, Xu Ji is of course not interested in exercising the right to be too shou for Zhang Miao, even if Zhang Miao will not mind when he learns about it, this kind of thing that may leave a handle can be done less if he can, Xu Ji knows very well what he should do and what he should not do. It was extremely unwise to waste one's time on something that would not benefit him, and Xu Ji was obviously unwilling to delay more in Chen Liu.

Because at this time, the county guard of Chenliu County had already been almost destroyed by the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and it was impossible for Xu Ji to blatantly trespass. But after all, as a subordinate, Xu Ji still ordered Gao Shun to take a break from the county guard's mansion, at least not to look too embarrassed. Presumably, Zhang Miao didn't want to see his residence too dilapidated.

Zhang Miao didn't let Xu Ji wait for a long time, and on the third day after Xu Ji arrived in Chenliu County, Zhang Miao finally arrived at Chenliu in the dust. For the now broken Chen Liu, Zhang Miao also feels a lot of pressure. There are still Yellow Turban Yu Kou in the territory of Chen Liu, and there are even many Yellow Turban defeated soldiers who fled from Dongjun for the disaster of Chen Liubei, Zhang Miao was moved from the cavalry captain to Chen Liutaishou, and Cao Cao is the same procedure, so there are no more soldiers under the command of the pro-guard horses in addition to the headquarters, and what is even more embarrassing is that although Chen Liu's foundation is still there, it is difficult to recover in a short period of time, and it can almost be regarded as a hundred ruins to be revived. That is to say, Zhang Miao has no choice but to face the situation that Chen Liu's stay in the future is incomplete in a short period of time.

And Xu Ji also chose to serve as the southern superintendent precisely because of the pressure of the Yellow Turban Yu Kou that Chen Liubei needs to face, which Zhang Miao is not easy to say, after all, Xu Ji's strength on the table is difficult to compete with the Yellow Turban in the north of Chen Liu. Moreover, Chenliu in the south is not necessarily so stable. Besides, after all, everyone was directly dispatched by the Son of Heaven, and no one should talk about the emperor. Therefore, Zhang Miao's request for Xu Ji was also easily approved, and Zhang Miao did not embarrass Xu Ji. Zhang Miao's idea is very simple, since Xu Ji can be appointed by the emperor as the superintendent of the post, he must have the ability, out of consideration for this, although Zhang Miao has huge doubts about Xu Ji's ability at this age, but Chen Liu's current situation is enough for him to be anxious, he has to seek all the power that can be used, having Xu Ji to deal with the yellow turban in the south of Chen Liu is a great liberation for the trouble he is facing, he can spare his hands to concentrate on clearing the yellow turban in the north. There will also be more room to flex your hands and feet.

And Xu Ji, who had the same idea, also expected that Zhang Miao would definitely not object to his proposal, after all, he had no reason to object. What's more, if he wanted to hand over the matter of purging the Yellow Turban Yu Kou in the north of Chen Liubei to Xu Ji, Zhang Miao might be more willing to do it himself. So, is Xu Ji really incapable of coping? The answer, of course, is no. Although Xu Jiming only had a team of more than 300 people on his face, if he mobilized all the strength of his hidden forces in Yingchuan, then it would be no problem to come up with more than 1,000 soldiers. But Xu Ji obviously doesn't need to waste time and energy on this kind of thing that is thankless for him. Moreover, the army's grain and grass consumption and the compensation for the dead and wounded soldiers are not a small amount, and Xu Ji does not have the net worth to spend like this. Moreover, Xu Ji does not have a good habit of marrying others.

Due to Chen Liu's current situation, Zhang Miao did not have time to feast Haoqiang, and naturally he had no intention of keeping Xu Ji Panhuan. Xu Ji was also happy not to have to deal with him, and on the second day after his confession was approved by Zhang Miao to be stamped with the seal of Taishou, Xu Ji immediately led his troops to set off for his place of governance, that is, Yu County.

The news that Xu Ji was appointed as the superintendent of Chen Liu's southern post was also quickly transmitted to Guo Jia, and Guo Jia reacted immediately, he ordered Xu Qian to lead those soldiers under Yuan Bocai to rush to Yuxian at the same time, and of course, brought enough money and food for Xu Ji's needs. Therefore, it may arrive about five days later than Xu Ji.

Xu Ji needed more than the support of soldiers and horses at this time, the prestige of the new arrival in Yuxian County was not established, and his age was easy for others to despise. It is precisely because of this that many things can only be done step by step, and of course, many of the yellow scarves left by the previous battle of Changshe have also flowed to Chenliu, which is also Xu Ji's trouble, every time he thinks of this, Xu Ji can't help but smile bitterly, this is the bitter fruit he buried for himself, sure enough, the cycle of heavenly principles, one drink and one peck, it is not heavenly.

But Xu Ji really has no way to do this, if he wants to gain a foothold in Chenliu, he must solve these troubles, and this kind of trouble exists in almost every place. Although Xu Ji didn't think it was difficult to solve the yellow scarf, the problem was that although it was not difficult to solve this problem, it would take a lot of time and energy. Xu Ji didn't think he had a lot of time to spend with these rogues. Eliminate the evil, if you can't solve it all at once, Xu Ji is not in a hurry to deal with it. What's more, Xu Ji's trouble is not only the Yellow Turban Yu Kou, he doesn't have much leisure to compete with the Yellow Turban Yu Kou.

Of course, Xu Ji also has a killer move against the Yellow Turban, and that is Bocai. Most of the Yellow Turbans flowing in the south of Chenliu were the defeated soldiers of the Yingchuan Yellow Turbans, as their former commanders, presumably Bo Cai would solve this problem much easier than Xu Ji by force. Therefore, the yellow scarf may be a huge trouble for Zhang Miao, but it may not be the case for Xu Ji. Maybe this will be another opportunity for Xu Ji to enhance his strength. What bothered Xu Ji the most at this time was that he had a lot of generals in his hands at this time, but he only lacked people who could help him deal with political affairs, and Guo Jia, who could be used, also needed to sit in Yingchuan to plan the rear for him, and Xun Yu and Xun You were also grounded at this time and were not allowed to go out. In this way, Xu Ji can still rely on himself. But in the land of eight counties, this is not a small amount, Xu Ji's energy is limited after all, and it is impossible to do everything himself, and he deeply feels that the cards in his hand are far from enough. But where else can you go for help at this point?

In any case, before finding someone who can help him, Xu Ji still has to support himself. Although he has not yet arrived in Yu County, Xu Ji has already begun to pave the way for his future road in advance, but these are not the first priority, and the first problem Xu Ji needs to face is the officials of Yu County. All the plans are based on Xu Ji's ability to settle the affairs of Yu County in front of him, and these things are also Xu Ji's biggest headache at present. He needed a valid reason to purge the occupants of the positions he couldn't use. There is only one county that completely belongs to him, and he has the capital of Anzhen Chenliu in the south.

And the opportunity obviously came soon, when Xu Ji arrived in Yu County, it was close to noon, and the people who were working in the fields around the official road had returned to rest. Although Xu Ji had sent people to inform the officials of Yu County in advance, it was surprising that no one came to greet him all the way up to the city gate. And in the face of this matter, Chen Zhi endured all the way, and finally couldn't restrain his anger, Chen Zhi has always been a calm person, if it wasn't for this incident that really made him extremely angry, he would never be so angry.

After all, Xu Ji is the superintendent of the post, what kind of official position is the superintendent? Its most basic duty is to inspect and supervise, which means that the superintendent has the ability to make a county's officials lose their official positions. Therefore, officials from all over the country are too late to supervise the post, and no matter what, it will not be Xu Ji's treatment. Then there can only be two explanations for this attitude, one is that these officials in Yuan County have clean hands and feet and are serious about their official duties. But from the disrepaired women's walls and roads, it can be seen that these officials are almost just wine bags and rice bags that only eat and drink, and what is the other explanation left? That is to look down on Xu Ji.

This is what makes Chen Zhi dissatisfied and angry, the so-called king worries about the humiliation of the ministers, and the king humiliates the ministers to death. As a retainer of Xu Ji, how can Chen Zhi accept this kind of thing? Immediately wanted to carry the sword into the city to ask for an explanation, of course, Bo Cai was different, as soon as he saw Xu Ji's contemplative face, he immediately stretched out his hand to stop Chen Zhi, this side Chen Zhi is the head of the fire, as soon as he saw that he was stopped, he immediately turned back, almost scolded, and then took a closer look at Bo Cai, Chen Zhi did not open his mouth but expressed his doubts with his eyes. Bo Cai looked at Xu Ji with his eyes, and Chen Zhi looked back at it, only to see that his lord was very indifferent and thinking about it immediately, obviously not taking this seriously at all.

Chen Zhi was naturally quite puzzled, and regardless of Bocai's stopping, he stepped forward and asked, "Why is the Lord so indifferent?" These people ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xu Ji raised his hand and interrupted him: "Why are you so angry? Uncle Zhi, when I first came to Yuan County, he didn't know me, and I didn't know him, the so-called mutual temptation. They want to test whether I Xu Ji is easy to deal with, and I am also trying to see if they understand the eyes. Now that it's clear at a glance, why should I fight against the dying? ”

Chen suddenly realized that he, the unscrupulous lord, had already been ready to clean Yu County, after all, Yu County would be Xu Ji's town in the future, how could there be unstable factors? Since he is disobedient, then get rid of it, Xu Ji's thinking is so simple. Of course, Bocai understands, and the way of thinking of the superior is like this, since it can't be used, and it will be a trouble to keep it sooner or later, so it's better to get rid of it. Besides, what is there to care about these little people? Bo Cai thought so.

Xu Ji and his entourage then went to the post house to live very quietly, because Xu Ji had recently decided to set up his own seat in Yu County, according to what I saw today, most of them had no preparations, but fortunately they could rest in the post house, of course, the soldiers under Gao Shun had to camp on the spot. Fortunately, Gao Shun has always been thoughtful, and there is no phenomenon of soldiers sleeping in the open.

And just when Xu Ji and his party checked into the post house, a short man left in the shadows outside the post house in a hurry.

At this time, in the county governor's mansion, everyone gathered together, their faces seemed to be a little anxious, and suddenly, a knock on the door came, and the old man in the first seat shouted: "Come in." ”

The person who came in was the man who peeked outside the post house, and the man entered the door and arched his hand: "The new post supervisor has moved into the post house, and he seems to have ordered his subordinates to rest, and there will be no movement when I come." ”

The old man frowned: "Okay, you go down." ”

After the man left, the old man in the first seat suddenly smiled and said: "After all, this Xu Duyou is young and ignorant, and he seems to be an extremely good guy, so why should we worry about this?" ”

Everyone present said yes, but the last one got up and said: "I see that although this new superintendent is young, he has a bit of a bearing that ordinary people can't bear, Chen Gong, I'm afraid that this kid is not so easy to deal with." ”

The old man who was called Chen Gong smiled: "Mao Pengshi is too worried, right? What can a fourteen-year-old kid do? ”

The middle-aged man known as Mao Pengshi also smiled: "Xiaoxian didn't want to say more, but the princes were so promising, and they were afraid that a catastrophe would come." If this new superintendent is really capable, how can the princes resist? ”

This is a little polite, to put it bluntly, it is to point at the face and scold you for not giving the emperor face, and at the end of the year, he asked how you can treat a court official, of course, these words are not what these people here like to hear, and when he arrived, an old man in a gorgeous costume stood up and shouted: "Mao Xiaoxian, what is your identity?" Dare to be presumptuous here? ”

The middle-aged man known as Mao Xiaoxian smiled coldly: "Mao Xiaoxian is just a small official in Yu County, so naturally he is not qualified to speak out here." The subordinate retired. He didn't care about everyone, but what should happen, turned around and walked away.

And the old man in fancy clothes behind him really blew his beard and stared, shouting: "Mao Xiaoxian, Ru'an dares to hear." ”

Of course, no matter how much you shout and scream, you can't call it back, and the old man in Huafu saw that he had turned around so hurriedly and asked the old man in the first seat: "Gong Liu, if this Mao Xiaoxian goes to tell the new superintendent of the mail, wouldn't you and I be ......?"

The old man in the first seat stroked his beard and smiled: "Don't worry, filial piety is a smart person, how can he do such a thing with an uncertain future?" ”

But is it really that secure? Mao Xiaoxian is indeed not stupid, but he is far more clear than Chen Gong in the first seat, Xu Ji is different from the previous post supervisor, and it can be seen from his quiet entry into the city that his plan must be not small.

Now the only thing Mao Xiaoxian is curious about is what Xu Ji wants, and this also determines whether he will help Xu Ji, but how to test this young but deep city superintendent? He fell into deep thought, and as for the old guys in the county guard's mansion, Mao Xiaoxian never took them seriously, since they were old, they should not continue to occupy an inappropriate position for their own personal gain.
