Yao Yu will still say kind words, at least, when these words are said, the tension on Wu Yan's face is not so much.

"The guards and soldiers are polite, the old man has prepared a banquet in the city, generals, soldiers, please."

Yao Yu nodded and agreed, and followed Wu Yan into Cangwu City.

When Yao Yu entered the city, the people all over the city were chanting the name of Wuyan.

From this point of view, Wu Yan's popularity in Jiaozhou is still not low, which is consistent with the information that Yingwei passed on to him.

It seems that even if he pulls Jingzhou's set of policies over, he can't guarantee that he will be able to win the hearts of these people.

Well, you can't rush this matter yet, you have to take your time.

With such thoughts, Yao Yu stayed in Jiaozhou for half a month.

During half a month, he tried to implement the policy in Jingzhou, and selected 10,000 elite soldiers under Wu Yan's command to form a new army, and the rest returned to the fields for the people.

This move was immediately embraced by the people.

Originally, there were 300,000 soldiers and civilians in Jiaozhou.

Among them, 30,000 are soldiers, which is equivalent to saying that nine people raise one soldier.

That's not a small percentage.

Although Jiaozhou is remote, there are many thieves and 30,000 soldiers in the state, which may not be enough.

As a result, the people of Jiaozhou can only work continuously to ensure that they can feed these 30,000 soldiers.

Although Wu Yan loves the people, he does not dare to vigorously punish the soldiers.

But all this, with the implementation of Yao Yu's new policy, does not exist.

He lowered taxes, disarmed and reduced expenditures, and began to establish schools in the six counties of Jiaozhou.

Not only that, Yao Yu also asked Man Kuang, Wu Jiong, Sun Yi, and Sha Mosong to lead the troops to eliminate bandits in Jiaozhou.

This time, Yao Yu brought 5,000 Jingzhou infantry cavalry and 5,000 Wudang barbarians.

In the mountains, Jingzhou's cavalry did not play a role, but for the Wudang barbarians, it was heaven.

Man Kuang was originally a Confucian general with both wisdom and courage under Yao Yu, plus the Wudang brute with Sha Mosong to open the way.

In just one month, the bandits in Jiaozhou were pacified, and 40,000 people were gained.

In this way, Yao Yu's prestige has been infinitely raised in the hearts of the people.

Seeing this, Wu Yan couldn't help but stroke his beard and sighed: "The guard general and the army acted so decisively and quickly, and the old man was relieved to Jiaozhou." ”

At this point, Wu Yan officially relinquished all power in his hands and returned to Jingzhou with Yao Yu.

Yao Yu also pushed the boat along the river, and immediately appointed Man Kuangxing Annan General and Military, acting as Annan General and Military Officer, and guarding Jiaozhou.

As for Wu Jiong, he was named the general of Suiyuan by Yao Yu, and managed Jiaozhou together with Man Kuang.

Of course, Yao Yu did not forget the influence of my family in Jiaozhou, and left Wu Yan's eldest son Wu Gu and appointed him as the governor of Jiaozhou Assassin Prefecture, assisting Man Kuang.

Yao Yuke was not stupid enough to appoint Wugu as the assassin of Jiaozhou, so that his power was still above the two of his henchmen, Man Kuang and Wu Jiong.

For Yao Yu, he would rather the position of Jiaozhou Assassin be vacant, and he would not give it away easily.

In this way, Yao Yu led the army back to Jiangling. Take Wu Yan and Wu Kuan father and son, and find Sima Ye to take up his post.

···

April.

At this time, Quan Yan, Quan Yao, and Gao Kan, who were guarding Yingchuan, experienced dozens of vicious battles with Wang Mi.

That Wang Mi was ordered by Liu Cong to attack Yingchuan with all his might, buying time for Shile to subdue both sides of the Yellow River.

Originally, it was just a feint, but Wang Mi was not convinced by Shi Le, in his opinion, his ability was no worse than Shi Le, but Shi Le was lucky to kill Wang Yan and other princes and ministers of the Jin Dynasty, and was reused by Liu Cong.

This is an unacceptable fact for Wang Mi, so he is eager to show himself, eager to subdue Yingchuan and expand his territory.

However, the three of Quan Yan were not given in vain, and the order Yao Yu gave them was to defend Yingchuan and ensure that Xuchang was not lost.

In this case, the forces of the two sides were equal, and Wang Mi could not take any advantage, not to mention, but caused a lot of losses to the 20,000 troops left by Liu Cong.

As a result, Wang Mi was consumed to the point that there was a shortage of food and grass, and Quan Yan did not take him out of the city to fight him.

As long as Wang Mi retreats on the front foot, Quan Yan will lead his troops to subdue the territory captured by Wang Mi.

As long as Wang Mi turned his head back, Quan Yan gathered his troops and retreated to Xuchang to defend.

After this tug-of-war several times, Wang Mi was angry and bedridden and returned to Luoyang to recuperate.

In the Yingchuan area, there was no more fighting.

Of course, although Yingchuan is safe here, it is not necessarily the case in other places.

Shi Le's soldiers are very fast, and they have already led their troops to capture Yanzhou, and they have also taken Qiaojun.

Jiang Rui, the original Taishou of Qian County, was killed, and his son Jiang Cong fled to Runan with his family, crossed Yiyang from Runan, went to Jiangling, and went to his cousin Jiang Jun.

No matter what, the Jiang family is also a representative of a wealthy family, they came to defect, Yao Zheng did not dare to arrange it at will, and after discussing it with Banbiao Suo Hong, he temporarily shelved it in Jiangling City, and waited until Yao Yu came back to dispose of it separately.

During this period, Shile occupied Qiaojun, leaving the general to defend at the same time, he personally led his troops to attack Qingzhou, and wanted to go to Gou Xi to avenge the revenge of the year.

The two sides fought day and night in Qingzhou, so that a large number of people in Qingzhou fled to Huaisi, and the displaced people rose everywhere.

Yao Xin, Hu Hu and his eldest brother Lu Xian took advantage of this opportunity to use the banner to win over the brave warriors among the displaced people, and formed an army of about 20,000 people, dominating one side.

Of course, the banner of Huhu is still used.

This time, Sima Rui couldn't sit still.

The Huaisi area is his Xuzhou base camp, and such a big force can't be left alone.

No, he sent the messenger Wang Dao to recruit him.

Because they had greeted Yao Yu before, Yao Xin and Hu Hu accepted Sima Rui's surrender, joined Sima Rui's army as a highly autonomous identity, and were sent to guard the area around Pengcheng.

With Yao Xinhu and 20,000 soldiers and horses in Pengcheng, Sima Rui also breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what you say, you don't have to worry about Shile's soldiers and horses threatening your hometown.

Not to mention the inextricable eastern battlefield, the Yongzhou area is also not peaceful.

Liu Yao led his troops to attack the fortified positions, and he won and lost with the cavalry general and the army Jia Kai.

It's just a catastrophe, Liu Yao is young and strong, and he can afford it.

But Na Jia Kai is not as young as Liu Yao, and the vicious battle that has lasted from September last year to the present has already exhausted his mental strength and is sick in bed.

Jia Kai originally wanted to ask for help, and after repelling Liu Cong, he could give himself a time to recuperate.

But unexpectedly, Zhang Liang in Liangzhou rejected Jia Kai's request for help, and Zhang Yin in Hanzhong was attacked by Li Xiong very urgently.

For a time, around Yongzhou, there was no one who could support Jia Kai.

Na Jia was angry, rolled his eyes, and died of anger on the bed.

After Jia Kai's death, his subordinates led his people, rode the generals, and sent the watch to Jingzhou at the same time, leading the army to abandon Guanzhong and retreat to stability.
