The generals of the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan, as Cao Cao's most trusted subordinates, made a decision that is self-evident.

As Cao Ren said, how Cao Cao acts, they will deal with it.

In fact, this is also absolute trust in Cao Cao!

Under Cao Ren's words, Cao Cao remembered the appearance of everyone just now and saw their own hands.

There was also the messenger Fa Zheng, who said a few questions in a loud voice, and he sat in a few places and pondered for a long time.

As for the other people in the hall, they were also waiting quietly, like Cheng Yu and Chen Qun, who were often planners, and they didn't say anything at this time.

Liu Qi came in large numbers, wanting to settle the ground, but no one could stop him.

And there are only a few roads to choose from.

But in Hefei, in the past year or so, although preparations have been strengthened to guard against the Sun family, how can they face Liu Qizhi's iron army?

Under such silence, Cao Cao finally spoke, his voice seemed a little tired and a little lost.

Like a giant tiger, he lowered his head.

"Don't wait for me, but talk about the highway and settle down!"

The meaning is already very obvious, and it was decided to accept Liu Qizhi's conditions.

But Yuan Shu's situation at this time is not good, and in the name, Cao Cao will not directly serve.

The next day, when Cao Cao met Fa Zheng again, he informed him of his decision.

After Fa Zheng knew about it, he quickly sent a letter to Liu Qi and explained the matter.

Jiangdu.

Jiang Gan was also talking to a person, and this person was his old friend, Zhou Yu.

In the past, when Zhou Yu was in Shouchun, Jiang Gan had a good relationship with him.

After this meeting, Zhou Yu knew the purpose of Jiang Gan's arrival, but he never took the initiative to say it, nor did he give Jiang Gan a chance to speak.

As a Jianghuai celebrity, Jiang Gan's emotional intelligence is not low. Based on this, how could he not see Zhou Yu's thoughts clearly.

That is, in Jiangdong, after staying for three days, he decisively proposed a farewell.

On the way back to Xuzhou, he personally wrote a letter for Liu Qi.

What was said in the letter was not just to praise Zhou Yu's high style and bright festival, but also to express his ambition, so that Liu Qi gave up recruiting the hearts of the people in Jiangdong, and also told Sun about his preparations.

It was when Liu Qi stayed in Xiakou that he received letters from Fa Zheng and Jiang Gan.

This expedition to Jiangdong, including Yuan Shu's troops, in addition to the land route, its rate of 90,000 sailors, with the elite sailors of Jingzhou, almost all of them were deployed to the battlefield.

The people here are not counting the people and horses of Lujiang such as Lei Xu and Chen Lan, and Liu Qi has also explored the hydrology and geography of Yangzhou, including the arrangement of the Sun family.

In short, he came to fight this time, and he was very prepared, that is, he was willing to solve the hidden dangers of Jiangdong once and for all.

Sun's foothold in Jiangdong has only been a few years, and his foundation is also unstable, which is also his opportunity.

After seeing Fa Zheng and even bringing Cao Cao's reply, Liu Qi did not take it lightly!

Cao Cao is a capable person, and it is really difficult for people to fully believe such words without actual deeds.

And if Cao Cao can fully belong, but with this defense, it is also indispensable!

With his troops, stabilizing the Western Regions is only a temporary arrangement......

Just seven days after arriving in Xiakou, with the arrival of troops from all sides, Liu Qi officially entered Fankou and began to go to the place where Sun's garrison in Xunyang was.

In the following month, Yu Liu Qi personally arrived, with Huang Zu as the left governor and Zhao Yun as the right governor, and launched a fierce attack on Sun's troops.

At this time, two news came in a row, Yuan Shu and Sun Jian, less than five days apart, died of illness one after another!

When the news came, it was surprising that Jiangdong was the first to fall into civil strife, and tens of thousands of mountains in places such as Yuzhang and Huiji were looking for opportunities to make trouble.

Zhao Yun and Huang Zu each led the two divisions, divided and fought, and successively captured many places.

And in the place of Jiujiang, as soon as Yuan Shu died, his interior was a mess. Yang Hong and Zhang Xun directly led their troops to Runan and defected to Lu Qian, who was stationed here.

Subsequently, the public also announced that he would join the imperial court, and Cao Cao also expressed his attachment after arriving in Shouchun and settling Yuan Shu.

Time flickered, and by December, many places in Yangzhou, except for Wu County Huiji, many places were taken by Liu Qi.

Sun's strength was greatly reduced, and even the brave Sun Ce was also injured before the battle.

In March of the following year, after Liu Qi settled the rear and deployed most of the troops to the attack of Wu County, the Sun clan was finally difficult to resist, first the internal chaos of the Sun clan, such as Sun Fu and others secretly defected to Liu Qi, and there was the rebellion of the Hui Ji Taishou.

Wu Jun was lost, Sun Quan guarded his brother, and he fled to Jiaozhou.

Most of Yangzhou is determined from this.

However, in the south of Yangzhou, there is also the local governance of Jingnan, but it is not feasible overnight.

Xiangyang, in the capital of Jingzhou Prefecture.

It was already dark, and it was already the middle of the night, and several offices were still shining.

Under the witness of his mother, Zhuge Liang, who had just married Huang, was still handling military affairs with candles.

After Liu Biao, the current history of Jingzhou is Wang Lie, a famous Qingzhou man who once served as a driver in Qingzhou.

Wang Lie is fair, knowledgeable, and talented.

After knowing Zhuge Liang's talent and recommending Liu Qiqin, the great Sikong, in Zhuge Liang's more than a year of doing things, he has been directly promoted to engage in it, and assisted in the implementation of the new laws of the imperial court.

Zhuge Liang is hardworking, quick thinking, and hardworking, Wang Lie saw it in his eyes, and he didn't know how many times he said it, so he took a good rest, but Zhuge Liang didn't listen to it.

Since he was a child, he followed his family in Donglai County, then in Qi State, then in Nanyang, and in Xiangyang.

In the limited time, what he hopes to do most is to stabilize the people and suffer less.

In the handling of affairs in the Jingzhou Prefecture, he found that the actual actions were too different from what the books said, so he mostly asked for advice modestly, and sometimes he would write to ask Zhuge Jin, who was already the Taishou of Jiyin.

His Zhuge family, although he was trusted by Liu Qi, the great Sikong, Zhuge Liang did not have the arrogance of the children of the family at all.

Therefore, such a character is very popular in the state capital.

"Kong Ming hasn't slept yet?"

Zhuge Liang, who was excerpting official documents, suddenly heard the sound outside the official's house, so he put down the pen and ink in his hand, and then held the oil lamp in his hand and opened the door to look.

But the person who wants to come is the soldier Cao engaged in Huo Jun.

Huo Jun was originally from Nanjun, and he was not a few years older than him, but after last year, together with Wei Yan and other local generals, he led his troops to serve the great Sikong Liu Qi, and his people were treated with courtesy. Later, it was also raised by the state pastor Wang Lie, who was temporarily engaged in the new military system in Jingzhou.

Although Huo Jun was an official of the state government, because of the particularity of the military affairs, he actually reported directly to the imperial court.

And at the beginning of the year, Liu Qi, the great Sikong, is also improving the imperial court official system, and intends to try out the new three-province and six-ministry system to divide the power of Shangshutai.
