After Bai Tu and his party arrived on the south bank, they bid farewell to the Chen family's fleet, and then rushed to Qu'a County, which is not far away.

The handover was very smooth, although at the beginning, Qu Aling was a little puzzled about Bai Tu's age, but after checking the official seal documents, he quickly "handed over, refused, and resigned" three times.

Don't give Bai Tu a chance to keep it at all......

Obviously, this Qu Aling also just wanted to hand over an errand, so he went back to his hometown to avoid chaos, and he didn't want to get involved in other rights and wrongs at all.

In three days, Bai Tu successfully took over Qu'a, Biling, Yangxian, the three northern counties of Wu County, as for the other ten counties of Wu County, most of them have been controlled by Yan Baihu and Zhenrong, Taishou Xu Gong also acquiesced in this, and even connived, and the envoys sent rushed back after being teased and mocked......

For the time being, Bai Tu didn't have time to deal with him, after all, he had to beware of Yuan Shu to do things first.

Historically, after Liu Shu came to Qu'a, he and Yuan Shu were also in constant discord, but Bai Tu believed that compared to Liu Xuan, Yuan Shu would be more targeted at himself!

Bai Tu was already in Qu Aji's Chengji Mansion at this time, Qu Aji looked about the same age as Xiao Peiji, and she was the same as Xiao Peiji at the beginning, wearing the same cloth skirt, but compared to Xiao Peiji, Qu A's skirt was only below the knee, and two little white legs were exposed.

When I saw Bai Tu, I was also curious, and I sat on the console at every turn, not as afraid of life as Xiao Peiji......

"You are Yangzhou Mu? Yes...... I can't imagine that I will be a state girl one day! Hahaha, Shou Chun Ji must be angry! Qu Aji said, slapping her thighs with laughter.

"It's only temporary...... Bai Tu now has the appointment of the state governor of the imperial court, and he can transfer the governorship.

And Bai Tu knows that if it is changed in history, this transfer will open the era of Yangzhou in the north and south for decades.

Shouchun, as the real governance of Yangzhou, has been under the control of the northern regime during the Three Kingdoms period, and a Yangzhou was set up in the north and south.

As for whether history can be changed now, Bai Tu doesn't know.

"For the time being, for the time being, I know!" Qu Aji urged, pressed Bai Tu's hand, and put the official seal in the designated position.

"Huh? You're quite talented? This sentence was obviously said by Qu Aji.

The official seal of the white map, because there are too many technology trees, has been read for a long time.

Then the first thing Bai Tu did was to use the authority of Yangzhou Mu to set Qu Aji as the state Ji of Yangzhou and Qu Aji as the temporary seat of Yangzhou!

Bai Tu and Yuan Shu, now a famous and substantial, can exercise the full strength of Yangzhou Mu, and the function of Shouchun's state Ji Zhi will not disappear.

"After that, help me spread the word to all counties in the state, report the financial situation of household registration, and allocate manpower and taxes to me in the winter." Bai Tu said.

Although people may not pay attention to themselves, the white picture that should be passed on still has to be passed on!

After Qu Aji heard this, her eyes sparkled, and she seemed very happy to have this opportunity to pass on to Shou Chunji.

The general transmission of the state pastor did not arrive in seconds, and then it was waiting for the reply of the counties, and then Bai Tu also clicked on the science and technology column.

Qu Aji realized that the "material" of Baitu is really not ordinary!

There are many good things in Baitu, such as the improved process of Shu brocade promised to Gan Ning, as well as fine ceramics, distilled spirits, and glass firing...... Unfortunately, now is not the time to do this.

First of all, what Bai Tu has to do is to make something that can protect itself.

Jiangdong suffered little loss in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the Jingyang Yellow Turban instigated by Ma Yuanyi was mainly caused by Jingbei and Huainan, and the target of the attack was never placed in Jiangdong.

The entire thirteen counties of Wu County have a total population of more than 600,000 people, and the three counties of Qu'a, Yangxian, and Biling, which Baitu can control, have a total population of more than 150,000, that is, they can provide 150,000 manpower a year, and they will be collected in four quarters.

In winter, there is more manpower that can be collected, but now Baitu, the Yangzhou pastor, can only use less than 50,000 manpower.

What is the concept of 50,000 manpower?

It takes 50 manpower to train the most ordinary soldiers, and then 10 manpower is needed every year to maintain it, and the training efficiency in winter is low, and the consumption of grain and grass is high, all of which are used to train soldiers, and at most in the spring, you can get 1,000 recruits......

As for the original Han army in the three counties, there were less than 2,000 in total, and the equipment, morale, and elite level were all impossible to see.

And building bridges and roads, dredging and building embankments, which does not need to consume manpower? Reckless use of military force is to lay hidden dangers for development!

For a while, Bai Tu was even a little worried about Gan Ning's thieves - if there was money, these conscripts could directly hire people to do it, and the manpower in the slack years could not be cheaper.

It's just that after the manpower has been levied, it costs money to transfer the people, otherwise it is no different from directly overdrawing manpower, and it is a move to defeat the people's hearts.

Bai Tu really sympathized with Liu Miao in history, compared to himself, he still had a thousand elite wolf riders of Lu Bujun, and he was a little confident in his heart.

But this is a bit of manpower...... Bai Tu thinks it's more reliable to look at science and technology, and in Bai Tu's technology tree, there is a city guarding machinery!

The eyes changed from the Mongolian heavy cavalry, the iron floating slaughter, the Guanning iron cavalry, the Xuanjia army, and the Modao team...... These arms are pulled out - whether it is manpower, material resources, or the level of armament technology, these are all things that Bai Tu can't raise now.

Now it's still reliable to defend the city!

And it can't be too complicated and expensive, and it must be done quickly...... Difficulty in choosing a white chart is about to kick in.

Fortunately, Bai Tu didn't have a headache for too long, and three days later, after Bai Tu recognized the cruel reality, good news came back one after another.

The counties have already given Bai Tu a reply, Jiujiang County replied the fastest, Yuan Shu personally wrote a letter, saying that he invited Bai Tu to Shouchun to take office, and he had already prepared a banquet......

Believe you, a ghost!

Bai Tu directly ignored Jiujiang, and later found that Lujiang had two reply letters, both of which were Lujiang Taishou - one from Lu Kang from the imperial court and the other from Liu Xun from Yuan Shufeng.

Last year, Lu Kang reprimanded Yuan Shu for being rebellious and refused to allocate grain and grass, and as a result, Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce's troops to attack Lujiang.

Originally, Lu Kang couldn't stop it at all, so he could only stick to Lujiang City, that is, Shucheng, the seat of Lujiang County.

Lu Kang won the hearts of the people in Lujiang, although he has been beaten, but the military heart is firm, morale is not down, on the other hand, Sun Ce almost defeated the entire territory of Lujiang, only Shucheng was left, Yuan Shu changed hands to promise Sun Ce Lujiang Taishou, to Liu Xun, and transferred Sun Ce back.

Not only did Sun Ce feel depressed and angry, but Liu Xun's ability was much worse than Sun Ce's, and Shucheng was still strong after more than a year, so Liu Xun had to temporarily move to Wancheng.

Liu Xun's reply to Bai Tu seemed polite, but it was provocative, while Lu Kang told the new Yangzhou pastor not to be impulsive, and said that he would persist until the end......

Bai Tu has no impression of Lu Kang, but he knows that he has a nephew named Lu Xun.

It's just that now Bai Tu is not good to talk to Lu Kang about his nephew, knowing that Lu Kang is still strong, Bai Tu is also a little relieved, in history, Lu Kang guarded for two years before he was defeated, and now he ...... Bai Tu hoped that if he persisted more, he might be able to catch up with himself and rescue him.

In addition, the good news that is really useful for Baitu comes from Danyang and Yuzhang......
