Although the people in Jizhou didn't feel weird, only Tian Feng and Fu Zhu felt that there was something else strange about this matter, but they couldn't think so far for a while, and they couldn't guess Xu Ji's plans for Xuzhou.

However, when he saw that Xu Ji announced this decision, the Zhen family actually did not react at all and had no objection at all, a smile appeared on his face, obviously seeing that something must have happened, so Zhen Yan, who spoke softly and hard yesterday, honestly closed his mouth, it seems that Xu Ji has won the victory in this struggle, once the Zhen family closes its mouth, of course the other families remain silent. Because according to reason, the Zhen family can strongly ask Guo Jia to recuperate in Jizhou. Now that the Zhen family has not done this, it can only indicate one thing - Xu Ji has surrendered to the Zhen family.

What method was used? Fu Zhu really wanted to know the way.

This question also existed in Tian Feng's heart: it was unimaginable that the attitude of the Zhen family had changed so dramatically in just one night.

Tian Feng's eyes flashed, looking at Xu Ji, who was standing tall, for the first time he had a vague idea of surrender from the bottom of his heart, even in front of Yuan Shao, Tian Feng had never felt this way.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Ji announced a new personnel appointment, and Liang Xi was appointed as the commander of Yanzhou, while the Bocai Department continued to carry out military operations in Yanzhou to encircle and suppress the Montenegrin army. Of course, Bocai is also responsible for the collection of the Black Mountain Army, and it can be predicted that Bocai's department will slowly expand in the near future.

As for Jizhou Don't drive, it unexpectedly fell on Xun You, who has been serving as Liang Xi's deputy and has been down-to-earth to assist Liang Xi in Chenliu's restructuring activities, and his character of not talking about it has accumulated rich experience in restructuring. It is really the best choice for him to come to Jizhou to preside over the reform of Jizhou.

The only disadvantage is that although Xun You comes from a famous family, he is not famous, and he came to Jizhou, which is full of talents, to serve as a special driver in Jizhou. In a short period of time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public.

But when Xu Ji announced that he would stay in Jizhou for a long time, many of those who expressed dissatisfaction lost their voices.

Xu Ji sneered in his heart. Zhilu Dao is in Jizhou, the strength of the family is extremely strong, if Xun You is left here alone, it will not be a trouble, but with his own personal control, the situation is naturally different.

As long as Xun You is given a period of time, Xun You can clean up these big families.

Originally, Xu Ji wanted to give Xun Chen the position of Jizhou Assassin History, but although Xun Chen had already served Xu Ji's side, he had not served by Xu Ji's side, which was naturally quite controversial. And outsiders also thought that Xun Chen chose to serve after Xu Ji obtained Jizhou, and Xun Chen still had a lot of things he didn't understand about Chen Liu's reform measures, and Xu Ji thought that it might be more appropriate for him to serve as the assassin of Xuzhou after he won Xuzhou in the future, so he chose Xun You.

Amid a lot of discussion, the meeting ended. The meeting was also surprisingly long, and it lasted until noon.

On the surface, the wind and waves are calm, but in fact, there is an undercurrent surging.

The meeting had just ended, and Xu Ji, who had hurried back to his residence, received the news that Shi Ah sent someone to send the news back.

Xu Ji was overjoyed. Hurriedly rushed to Guo Jia's residence. He has always handed over these things to Guo Jia to deal with.

When I entered the backyard, I saw Le Jin, who came with Gao Shun, standing in the middle of the courtyard and looking around, looking mysterious.

Xu Ji walked behind him leisurely and patted Le Jin on the shoulder. The latter was taken aback by Xu Ji, almost screamed, and immediately covered his mouth with his own hands. An expression that is reluctant to make a sound even if it is dead makes people laugh. I wanted to be angry. But as soon as he saw that it was Xu Ji, his angry eyebrows immediately turned into a smile.

Xu Ji laughed in his heart: "What are you doing here?" Why not go in? Then he wanted to go inside. was desperately pulled by Le Jin, and he squeezed his eyebrows vigorously.

Of course, Le Jin didn't say what the reason was, but replied: "The military division's rebellion, I don't dare to make a mistake, is it better for the lord to ask someone to spread it first?" ”

When Xu Ji heard this, he smiled and said, "Don't talk to me about this, and follow me in to hear what news Shi A has coming." ”

Hearing Xu Ji's words, of course, Le Jin didn't say much, Xu Ji entered the door together, at this time, Guo Jia was looking down at a letter on the desk, obviously not realizing that Xu Ji was coming, only to see Guo Jia open his mouth without raising his head: "Didn't I say that there is no major matter, don't bother?" Nothing to do with people, let alone see! ”

When Xu Ji heard this, he laughed and said: "Fengxiao is so pompous, is Xu Wenlie also the so-called 'irrelevant people'?" Hearing Xu Ji's voice, Guo Jiacai raised his head, and when he saw Xu Ji, he also smiled and replied, "Is that okay?" The lord is now a two-state assassin, and he doesn't bother to come to my idler's mansion on official business, why isn't he an idler? ”

When Le Jin heard this, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu interjected with a smile: "Meet Mr. Fengxiao, to be honest, Wen Qian has been here for a long time, but I heard that Mr. didn't dare to disturb when he didn't see the idlers, and he didn't think that the lord would ...... Hahaha~~~"

Xu Ji couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Okay, you Le Wenqian, you dare to calculate me?" After saying this, Xu Ji looked back at Guo Jia and asked, "What news did Shi Ah send back from there?" ”

Hearing this, Guo Jia picked up the letter in his hand and said: "Chang'an has frequent changes, it seems that our young emperor is indeed an 'ambitious' person, and it is even more rare that he can endure loneliness, and he has managed his own power on a large scale under Dong Zhuo's high pressure, which is very powerful." ”

Xu Ji smiled coldly when he heard this: "The Emperor's family has always been like this, as early as when we first met, I knew that this son was not like his brother, this is an immature poisonous snake, and sooner or later it will inevitably back." Not to mention this, how is Shi A's business doing? ”

Guo Jia's evaluation of Xu Ji is not wrong, and it can indeed be seen from Liu Xie's series of practices that this kid is young but scheming, and he is indeed not an easy character to deal with, and as for Xu Ji's question, Guo Jia also quickly replied: "With the foundation of the year, the Hero Building has already settled in Chang'an Station, but the lord also knows that he is the way, after all, it is Dong Zhuo's territory, and Shi A does not dare to act rashly, and it has always been very regular." This letter is also asking what to do next. However, Shi Ah mentioned a lot of heroes who had never heard of before, which deserved the attention of the lord. Maybe you can take it for your own use. ”

Xu Ji snorted coldly: "Every time a hero slaughters more dogs, the heroes in the market have always embarrassed the princes and ministers in the court. ”

Guo Jia naturally nodded his head. At least most of the soldiers under Xu Ji's command are also from poor families, and Xu Ji himself is also a member of these markets.

After a while, Xu Ji suddenly spoke: "I see if Guo Tu can set off?" ”

Guo Jia smiled when he heard this: "Of course, I will ask him to leave tonight." I ordered one of the Xin family's men who was on an errand in prison to pretend to be Xin Bi's henchman, let him out of prison, and the two of them only rode one horse, and then when they went to the suburbs, they pretended to send chasing soldiers, and the man let Guo Tu go first, and asked Guo Tu to return to Yuan Shao to avenge him and Xin Bi. and pretending to kill this person in front of Guo Tu, this drama is enough, right? ”

Xu Ji said with a smile: "I think it's best to call Xin Ping to act together, and let Xin Ping scold this person through gritted teeth before he dies, so that it will be realistic." I don't think Feng Xiao has to hide his illness from Xin Biao. ”

Guo Jia nodded and said, "The Lord is reasonable, if this is the case, do we still want this person to make up a lie and tell Guo Tu Xinbi that he has been secretly executed?" ”

Xu Ji said: "This is natural, make a full set of dramas, otherwise how can you deceive Guo Tu, who is full of ghost tricks and is used to calculating others?" ”

Guo Jia smiled: "That's it. Simbi is going to stay in prison for a while longer,"

Xu Ji snorted coldly: "This idiot almost took Fengxiao's life, why not let him stay in prison for a while now?" It's like thinking about it. ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The lord is already merciful. ”

Le Jin, who had been unable to interject, remembered something and said: "Zhang Gu's identity has already recited Xin Biao's knowledge, it doesn't matter, right?" ”

Xu Ji smiled: "It's really rare. You've learned to use your brain. ”

Guo Jia said confidently: "The Xin family has already obeyed us because of Xin Bi's affairs, and they are our people, otherwise it is impossible for the lord to let Xin Ping know about my pretending to be sick and tonight's actions."

Xu Ji smiled: "This is natural. However, I think Feng Xiao might as well reveal his dissatisfaction with the Zhen family to Xin Ping. ”

Guo Jia's eyes lit up and said, "I understand." ”

Xu Ji smiled: "Didn't the Xin family always want to replace the Zhen family? I'm going to give him that chance now. As long as he knew that the relationship between Lu Dao Fengxiao and the Zhen family was not so close, why didn't he want to move? ”

Guo Jia nodded and said, "Xin Ping is a smart person. If I am pretending to be sick, I should know that the lord of the Dao has other plans. And he is guarding against the Zhen family, and he treats him as his own, in this case, he will only keep it a secret. ”

Xu Ji smiled: "I will let Xin Ping taste some sweetness, even if the Zhen family is going all out to do business in the future, I don't want the Zhen family to be dominant." ”

Guo Jia nodded yes.

Xu Ji stood up and said with a smile: "I think Feng Xiao is still thinking about how to pretend to be sick, right?" Later, everyone will come to see you after dinner. Calculate Guo Tu, that was the night thing. ”

Guo Jia was stunned when he heard this, and said with a wry smile: "Is my body so fragile? Either pretending to be dead or pretending to be sick? Isn't there a time for health? ”

Le Jin had already been dizzy by the two, but he was embarrassed to go, and now seeing that the two had finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then stood up, and when he heard Guo Jia's words, he smiled and said, "Where is Mr. Guo Jia unhealthy?" If it is not healthy, how can it cause such a thing with the 'graceful' Mrs. Zhang? ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he couldn't help blushing, he has always been articulate, after so many verbal battles, strong winds and waves, this time he was powerless to fight back.

It wasn't until Le Jin escaped out of the door that Guo Jia laughed and scolded Le Jin.

Xu Ji couldn't help laughing, but sighed beautifully in his heart: The road is long, but his road to hegemony is becoming more and more exciting and bright!

A.D. 192, winter, Jizhou, Yecheng.

The snow was falling outside the window, but I couldn't help the warmth in the study. Xu Ji was sitting upright in the study at this time, looking intently at the important official document sent by Xun You, with a smile on his face from time to time. Apparently very happy with the current situation.

At this time, Xu Ji has devoted himself to his strange life, the so-called "heroes are used to ordinary people", and those heroes who made Xu Ji awe-inspiring in later generations were defeated one by one in front of Xu Ji. Xu Ji has become a nightmare in the hearts of the princes of the world, and anyone who fights with him will become depressed. It is difficult to turn over, and Yuan Shao is the most obvious example.

It's only been a few years. Xu Ji, who was born in a poor family, has already become the assassin of Liangzhou, and he has initially realized his original ambition. His subordinates are full of fierce generals, and they also have nearly 100,000 elite soldiers. Leap to become a dominant prince. And there is a tendency to get stronger and stronger.

Jizhou and Yanzhou are different, and it was originally difficult to unify governance, but after nearly half a year of reform, Yanzhou and Jizhou are gradually on the right track. It's just that it hurts those big families.

The first to challenge the family was Xu Jixin's appointment of Yanzhou Beijia Liang Xi, who suppressed the family with vigorous and resolute means when he first arrived in Yanzhou.

Originally, the family members of Yanzhou had a lot of dissatisfaction with Xu Ji's use of force to cripple Yuan Benchu, who was popular in the fourth and third worlds, and to drive Liu Dai away by coercion. So after Liang Xi, a Yanzhou don't drive alone, and immediately takes office in Yanzhou, how can the family take him seriously? has long prepared a thousand means to make it difficult for Liang Xi, so that he will know the difficulty and retreat.

How do you know that Liang Xi didn't pay attention to them at all, you must know that the thing Liang Xi has done the most in Chenliu over the years is to deal with the local clans. He is well aware of the weaknesses of the family.

Therefore, after Liang Xi arrived in Yanzhou, the first thing he did was to order the Bocai Division, which had received a huge expansion of the army, to abandon the pursuit of the Montenegrin army. In this way, the Montenegrin army was able to breathe, so after rectifying the morale of the army. Avoid Bocai's entanglement and advance westward.

Liang Xi issued an announcement at this time, the Montenegrin Army was huge, and to clean up the Montenegrin Army, it was necessary to get the "support" of the Yanzhou family. And Liang Xi's so-called "support" is to ask the family clan to hand over the clan soldiers in his hands, saying that this can concentrate on dealing with the Montenegrin army, and promise never to ask for grain and grass from the family clan in Yanzhou. All expenses are covered by yourself.

Where would those big families take Liang Xi's words to heart and scoff at this announcement. still go my own way, spend all day drinking. Make nothing of.

Liang Xi had long known that this was the result, so he immediately ordered the Bocai army to launch a new round of attacks on the Montenegrin army, but the purpose of this attack was not to annihilate or defeat, but to drive away.

With the assistance of the powerful intelligence system of the Phantom, the Bocai army can always easily find the exact location of the Montenegrin army, and begin to carry out a "powerful attack" on the Montenegrin army.

Gradually, the Montenegrin army discovered a strange thing, that is, the army of Bocai seemed to be very happy with them to flee in the direction of the city, and did not like them to hide in the mountains and old forests. As long as the Montenegrin army decides to hide in the dense forests of the mountains, it will definitely be attacked fiercely by Bocai. If you flee in the direction of the city, there is no hindrance.

In the face of such a clear release route, the Black Mountain Army did not dare to try it in the early stage, after all, it had already been chilled by Xu Ji's side, for fear that it would be a trap. At this time, because he had lost his troops, Zhang Yan, who had been excluded and ridiculed in the Montenegrin army, stood up, calmly thinking that the leaders of the Montenegrin army analyzed the situation and made them understand that Xu Ji's main enemy after becoming the assassin of Yanzhou was not the Montenegrin army, but the family of Yanzhou, which was the conclusion obtained from the Chen Liu's reform. Therefore, there is only one explanation for Bocai's behavior now, that is, to drive them to attack the family clans in Yanzhou, so the Montenegrin army is safe for the time being. Of course, the premise is that the Montenegrin army must advance exactly according to the escape gap left by Xu Ji.

Zhang Yan's analysis made the desperate Montenegrin army find its own survival direction, and Zhang Yan also established his position in the Montenegrin army at one time, although it is not as good as before, but after all, it has the weight to speak, and his subordinates have begun to gather people from scratch.

Immediately, the Montenegrin army launched an attack on some small and medium-sized cities in Yanzhou and the estates of the big clans, and under the whirlwind attacks with Zhang Yan as the vanguard, some smaller cities and manors were looted by the Montenegrin army, and the big clans were also beaten by the Montenegrin army.

Although the Montenegrin Army is not the opponent of the army under Xu Ji, the Montenegrin Army itself is also a rare elite in the world, although because of the reason of being a rogue for a long time, the Montenegrin Army has the characteristics of being brave in battle, but it is easy to lose military morale after defeat, but there are few armies in the world that can compete with it.

Therefore, those families in Yanzhou who despised the combat effectiveness of the Montenegrin Army because of the repeated defeats of the Montenegrin Army in the hands of Bocai immediately tasted the bitter fruit. Where are the hastily organized peasant soldiers who are the opponents of the Montenegrin Army, which has survived a hundred battles? could only send a large amount of equipment to the Montenegrin Army in vain, and many peasant soldiers simply joined it after surrendering to the Montenegrin Army.

The Montenegrin army has greatly increased its strength because it has defeated many great families.

In Yanzhou at this time, Xu Ji and Liang Xi deliberately let themselves go. At this time, Cao Cao settled down in Guangling, and there was a tendency to develop southward and join forces with Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou, where would he take care of Yanzhou, the original Yanzhou assassin Liu Dai had returned to Donglai Mei at this time and inherited the family business. And the original Taishan Taishou Bao Xin has also been united with Cao Cao's soldiers at this time, and he will no longer care about anything in Yanzhou, even if he wants to manage, the wise Cao Cao will stop him, because this is obviously Xu Ji's territory, and the tiger's ass can't be touched. If Yuan Shao is to be said, he will not dare to meddle in the affairs of Yanzhou in a short period of time, and he must use a little more conspiracy and trickery. Yuan Shu's words are even more impossible, because Yuan Shao's full energy is still on Jingzhou's body, although the hope of attacking Jingzhou from the front is getting slimmer and slimmer, but Yuan Shu undoubtedly wants to detour to Yangzhou, occupy Jiangdong, and then plot against Jingzhou, which can be seen from his repeated sending troops in the direction of Yangzhou. Even if Yuan Shu wanted to reach out to the Central Plains, his first target should be Xuzhou, not Yanzhou, which was occupied by Xu Ji's army.

In the end, there was only one Chen Liutai guarding Zhang Miao, and Xu Ji knew his temperament and ability very well, and it was simply a fool's dream to ask him to organize his strength to curb the black merchants, not to mention that he had already put his last little family background into the battle in Jinxiang before, even if he had ideas, he was powerless. Therefore, the family of Yanzhou is in a state of scattered sand at this time. In this case, it would be strange not to lose the battle. (To be continued......)
