Tai Shi Ci did not stay in Gaomi for too long, and a few days later, he took Xun Kuang and quietly left Gaomi.

The reason why Tai Shici was allowed to take Xun Kuang away was also for a reason.

"My brother is now under his command, and there are more and more talents.

But counting it down, except for Uncle Ohno and Xiang, almost no one is alone. Even Brother Xu is mainly about assistance. The reason is that the prestige of his brother's henchmen in the army is too low. The Lord is weak and the servant is strong, and there will be great woe. While my brother's strength is not strong now, he should arrange more henchmen in the army to strengthen his control over the army, which is a good way to do it once and for all. ”

When Liu Chuang heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

He thought about it carefully, and what Zhuge Liang said was quite reasonable.

Indeed, his henchmen in the army are too few, and it is time to make some arrangements.

The day after Zhuge Liang talked to him about this, Liu Chuang ordered Xu Chu to be transferred to Gao Shun's side and was responsible for assisting Gao Shun in training.

Liu Chuang wants Gao Shun to train an elite, so this elite must be controlled in his own hands.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xu Chu is a reckless man.

But in fact, this guy is a talent for commanding the army, training for Cao Cao to become a tiger guard, which can be described as the elite of the army.

And the relationship between Xu Chu and Liu Chuang naturally does not need to be said. Liu Chuang believed that letting Xu Chu take control of the new army was the most suitable arrangement.

As for the name of this new army?

Liu Chuang has yet to come up with a suitable name.

At the same time, Liu Chuang ordered the expansion of the Flying Bear Guard, expanding the Flying Bear Guard to 800 people.

At present, there are not many cavalry troops in Beihai Country, and there are only more than 1,000 people. After Liu Chuang expanded the Flying Bear Guard, it was equivalent to completely controlling the cavalry army in Beihai.

This Flying Bear Guard is divided into two parts, Zhou Cang and Wu Anguo each lead one and are the Sima in the army.

Liu Chuang will directly control this force. As a pro-army servant.

Subsequently, he used Chen Jiao as a military advisor to sacrifice wine, and this stall can be regarded as a preliminary success. Dai Qian temporarily received a high-secret order, while Chen Qun ...... After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Chuang worshiped Chen Qunwei to engage in it, pretending to be Anqiu Ling, commanding the land of Anqiu and Chang'an counties, and forming an effective echo with Gaomi, Dongwu and Guzang. Since the Anqiu gentry rioted. Wei Yue carried out an extremely bloody suppression of the Anqiu gentry.

Previously, Liu Chuang was reluctant to take over the two counties because the strength in his hands was not enough to control the two counties.

But with the success of Tuntian, the grain in Liu Chuang's hands will be harvested, and he will naturally have enough strength. Put the two counties in your hands.

Regarding Liu Chuang's arrangement, Zheng Xuan was noncommittal.

Although Peng Xuan sent people to protest, Zheng Xuan said with a smile: "I said at the beginning that I would lend the three counties of Anqiu to Meng Yan, and now Meng Yan has taken over, which is not a big deal." However, Peng Xiang couldn't help but make a fuss, losing the face of the court, and even weaker his bearing. ”

Liu Chuang's strength is strong. and formed an alliance with Lu Bu.

Zheng Xuan doesn't have to give Peng Xuan a good face, just sue him, you should be honest.

Your Beihai phase is a reward for the sake of your face. If you hadn't followed the move. My root will not be nice to you.

Peng Xuan was furious in his heart, but he felt helpless.

His reputation is indeed very loud...... But in front of Zheng Xuan, it is nothing.

Even if it's Kong Rong. didn't dare to pose in front of Zheng Xuan. Not to mention, now in this Gaomi county. There is also a Chen Ji Chen Yuanfang.

These people are all great Confucians in the world and have a good reputation.

If Peng Xuan really angered these people, I am afraid that the position of the Beihai Prime Minister will be difficult to sit firmly.

For such a result, Peng Xuan was shocked and angry. At the same time, I felt an inexplicable panic...... Liu Chuang's power is getting stronger and stronger, so he is becoming more and more dangerous. If this continues, it won't take too long, and Liu Chuang is afraid that he will cross Wenshui and drive him away.

Don't look at what Peng Xuan said toughly, but if he really let him fight with Liu Chuang, he is not very willing.

So, in this kind of fear, Peng Xuan was in a panic all day long.

At first, when he took over the helm of Beihai Xiang, he was very interested...... But now, he found that this position of the minister of the North Sea is a hot potato.

In this panic, time passed quietly.

At the beginning of July, Liu Chuang suddenly used the excuse that he had robbed a batch of goods in Xiami County, and without waiting for Peng Xuan to explain, he ordered Guan Hai to lead his troops to attack, and led an army of 3,000 to attack Xiami. At the same time, Chun Yu ordered Liu Zheng to also get Liu Chuang's instructions to wave his army to force the Wenshui and return to Yongshan Mountain.

The situation of the big war is on the verge of breaking out.

Peng Xuan was so frightened that he panicked, and hurriedly ordered Gong Shalu to rescue Xia Mi, and at the same time ordered Zhuxu, Yingling and Pingshou counties to concentrate their troops, stationed in Hanting, and prepared to fight Liu Chuang to the death. But Peng Xuan didn't expect that before Gong Shalu crossed Weishui, Zheng Xuan had already sent a handwritten letter to the desk where the secret order was issued.

Liu Gongzi's dispatch of troops this time is not for personal grudges, but for state affairs.

Beihai Prime Minister Peng Xuan appointed Xiaoxiao, rampant in the township, and had long had the intention of rebellion.

Now Liu Dongyi came to seize it in the name of the emperor uncle of the Han Dynasty, and please open the city to surrender earlier, he will definitely not cause any harm to Xia Mi.

I have to say that although Zheng Xuan has no official position, his identity is enough to be worth 100,000 soldiers and horses.

After receiving Zheng Xuan's letter, he opened the city gate and went out of the city to surrender without saying a word.

Subsequently, Guan Hai ordered Xiao Ling to set up an ambush on the bank of the Weishui River and defeated Gong Shalu.

And the loss of the secret made Peng Xuan even more panicked. Just when he was worried and ready to fight Liu Chuang to the death, Hou Qian and Xue suddenly joined forces to seize Tingxian County and approach Changguang. Donglai County was taken aback, and hurriedly ordered Wang Ying to send troops to rescue Changguang. Just after Wang Ying sent troops, Tai Shici raised 5,000 troops from Jiaodong, almost bloodless, and took Lu Township.

Tai Shici's reputation in Donglai County is not weak.

Although he has been away from home for many years, he is still famous, so Township Chief Lu is unwilling to be an enemy of Tai Shici, so he abandoned the city and disappeared.

After hearing the news that Tai Shici had entered Donglai, Guan Tong was also surprised.

He hurriedly raised 20,000 troops and stationed troops in Qucheng.

Donglai County, vast and sparsely populated, with 20,000 soldiers and horses, can be said to concentrate sixty percent of the troops of Donglai County. In the middle of July, Guan Tong Zheng wanted to fight a decisive battle with Tai Shi Ci in the township, but he knew that Xu Sheng led a group of men and horses, went up the Gushui River, and the troops went out of Yangqiu Mountain and appeared in the rear of Guan Tong.

Guan Tong hurriedly returned to the army to rescue. How do you know, but you were ambushed by Xu Sheng.

The 20,000-strong army was almost completely defeated, and the commanders were killed in the chaos, and Donglai County, except for the three counties of Dongmu, Changyang and Guanyang, fell into the hands of Liu Chuang. When Wang Ying heard that Guan Tong was defeated, he did not dare to continue to be an enemy of Liu Chuang. He escaped from Changguang overnight and went straight to Mount Tai, and in the entire Donglai County, no one could resist Liu Chuang's soldiers. At the end of July, the three counties of Dongmu, Changyang and Guanyang. and the city was surrendered......

In just one month, Liu Chuangbing captured Donglai County without blood, which shook Beihai Kingdom.

The gentry of the Beihai Kingdom, who originally planned to continue to observe for a period of time, also made a quick decision.

The two counties of Zhuxuying Mausoleum raised the city and surrendered.

Beihai soldiers stationed in Hanting. It's also a mess.

Peng Xuan saw that the general trend had gone, so he simply abandoned the city and left.

This Beihai phase, whoever wants to do it will do it, anyway, I will not continue to stay in Beihai.

Peng Xuan's departure, the entire Beihai is equivalent to falling into the hands of Liu Chuang.

In August, Tobu Tuntian had a bumper harvest. Jiaodong Tuntian harvested, and the people of Beihai were thunderous.

And just when everyone was immersed in the joy of the harvest, Elfang carried a large number of Shu millet seeds and quietly set off from Gaomi. Carrying a large amount of money, he secretly went north and went to Youzhou. entourage, as well as Chang Sheng Pei Wei and other five people. and the number of slaves in the hundreds.

It's just that at this time, all eyes are on. are concentrated in Beihai and Donglai, so that no one knows the movements of Elfang and others......

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In Gaomi County, there is a prosperous scene.

With the success of Liu Chuang Tuntian, the population of Gaomi County has exceeded 50,000 people, becoming a big city between Jiao and Weishui.

"This Liu Chuang, but there are some means!"

In a restaurant in Gaomi County, several people were sitting together, looking at the prosperous scene on the street, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

The person who spoke, wearing a brocade robe, a high crown on his head, and a strong Yingchuan accent.

And under him, a strong man couldn't help but nod and said: "I came here last year, and it was deserted, not as prosperous as it is now." Mr. Nakaji, do you think this person will agree to the invitation of the eldest prince? Hehe, if it were me, I'm afraid it would be hard to agree. ”

"Therefore, you can only be a cavalry governor, not a general."

When the strong man heard this, he was not angry, but laughed.

The high-crowned man sat for a while, then stood up, "Weihuang, let's go." ”

"Are you going to see Liu Chuang?"

The high-crowned man smiled slightly, "It's a little presumptuous to see Liu Chuang like this."

In any case, he is now considered a prince...... But I have a friendship with Ziqi again, and when the time comes, do you say that I worship him, or does he worship me? Instead of this, it is better to meet Kang Chenggong. Let Kang Chenggong come forward to introduce him, which can also save a lot of trouble and embarrassment. ”

The strong man nodded yes, followed the high-crowned man, and walked out of the restaurant.

At this time, Liu Chuang was fiddling with a catapult model at home.

Elk, Zhuge Ling and Zhuge Liang Tai Shiheng sat on the sidelines, watching Liu Chuang put a small pebble into the catapult, and then buckled the spring, and the pebble immediately flew out a meter away and landed on the rockery in the sand table.

Zhuge Ling held a drawing and scribbled on it with charcoal from time to time.

After a while, she suddenly sighed and said softly: "It's a pity that the Mo family classics were lost too much back then, otherwise they could be used as a reference."

Childe, I'll go back and think about it again, discuss it with Fei Wo, and see how to change it. ”

Liu Chuang smiled slightly, he looked at the catapult model on the sand table, and said with some regret: "It's a pity that there is no gunpowder, otherwise it can increase some power." ”

"Gunpowder?"

Zhuge Liang asked curiously, "Brother Meng Yan, what is that?" ”

"This ...... It's a firearm.

I only know a rough idea, how to make zuò, I'm afraid I have to find someone to do research. It's too dangerous, but as far as I know, many alchemists are good at it...... Second lady, you don't have to worry too much, improving the catapult is not an easy task, and it always takes many times to achieve success. So, don't take it too seriously, failure is the mother of success. ”

As Liu Chuang's relationship with Zhuge Ling deepened, his name for Zhuge Ling also changed.

From the original Zhuge lady to today's second lady...... Although Zhuge Ling didn't say anything, she was very happy in her heart.

She nodded, in understanding.

But his eyes remained on the drawing, and his face was pensive.

"Meng Yan, why should this good end improve the catapult?"

Elk asked suspiciously, "Isn't it possible to fight again?" Didn't you just take Donglai County and drive out Peng Xuan, who else are you going to war? ”

"You can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people."

Liu Chuang sighed softly, "The more space I occupy now, the more jealous I become."

This part of the North Sea Country is surrounded by enemies on three sides, so I have to be a little more careful...... By the way, in a few days, the bell will come......"

"Hmm!"

Regarding Liu Chuang's marriage, Ji Shang has already made proper arrangements.

This matter is specially handled by Zheng Xuan, so there is no need for Liu Chuang to bother too much.

He had so much on his hands right now...... The bumper harvest in Tuntian made Liu Chuang feel much more at ease. But then, he has to build a ship, and he has to plan and plan for the future. At the same time, Gao Shun has already begun to train his troops, and he needs to deal with all aspects of things.

Who will be in charge of Donglai County, and how should they be recruited?

Liu Chuang's sense of crisis is very strong now, and seeing that he is about to enter the end of the second year of Jian'an, the time left for him seems to be getting less and less.

Just as everyone was talking, Zhou Cang suddenly ran over and reported to Liu Chuang.

"Childe, Kang Chenggong sent someone to come, please come over to the house."

"Huh?"

Liu Chuang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Please go back to your father, just say that I will go over immediately." ”

If there is nothing to do, Zheng Xuan generally does not take the initiative to look for him.

Liu Chuang changed his clothes, took Zhuge Liang and Tai Shiheng, hurriedly walked out of Beppu, and went straight to Zheng's mansion.

He is now a family to the Zheng Mansion, so after coming to the Zheng Mansion, he doesn't need the Zheng Mansion's family to pass through, so he goes straight to the middle hall.

Before entering the nave, I heard a burst of laughter from inside.

Liu Chuang walked into the middle hall, but saw Zheng Xuan sitting on a couch chair, and at the head of him, there was a man in a gorgeous costume and a high crown, with an extraordinary bearing.

"Meng Yan, come and see your Uncle Zhongzhi."

Uncle Nakaji?

Liu Chuang was stunned, but he still obeyed the order and stepped forward, bowed down and saluted the high-crowned man: "Little nephew Liu Chuang, I have seen Mr. Zhongzhi." ”

"You're Liu Chuang?"

The high-crowned man stood up, looking slightly agitated.

He took Liu Chuang's hand, looked up and down, and suddenly smiled: "Kang Chenggong, who do you think Meng Yan looks like?" ”

"This ......"

"Hehe, do you think that Meng Yan is quite similar to King Li of Huainan?"

King Huainan Li? Liu Chang?

Liu Chuang looked at this high-crowned man in amazement, and secretly wondered in his heart, who is this person?

Zheng Xuan saw Liu Chuang's doubts, so he smiled and said, "Meng Yan, you don't have to think nonsense...... This Xin Zhongzhi was also quite friendly with your father in his early years. He is now serving under the account of Yuan Gong, and this time in the name of Yuan Tan Yuan, the eldest prince of Yuan, he invites you to go to Qi County.

PS: I'm sorry for being late. The day before yesterday was refreshing, and I didn't want to start in the early hours of the morning, and I had diarrhea. It seems to be gastroenteritis, so ...... From early morning to now, I have pulled nearly ten times, and the whole person is about to collapse. Writing at a turtle speed of 1,000 words an hour is really painful!
