Forget it, there are indeed a lot of talents in Jiangdong, but the point that Liu Xuan resists the most...... The talents of Jiangdong are all representatives of various families in Jiangdong. (THE FASTEST AND MOST STABLE UPDATE, SEE, .ANN.)

Thinking about it this way, this group of people died when they died, and instead achieved their own plan to weaken the Shi clan.

"It's a pity that Zhou Yu ......"

It is impossible for Zhou Yu to be used by him, unless the Sun family did not rise at the beginning, but at present, the rise of the Sun family is inevitable, not only because of the Yellow Turban Army, but also because of the arrival of Yu Ji, the Sun family is likely to get a greater opportunity.

sighed regrettably, but thinking that he was not unavailable, especially after coming to Yanzhou and meeting Cao Cao, he knew that the person who helped Liu Dai run to Chang'an to report the news was Tai Shici, who was supposed to become the general of Eastern Wu.

This is indeed a great talent, he was actually sent by Liu Xuan's stupid pig to report the news, if Tai Shici used the army to resist the Yellow Turban, how could Yanzhou fall into such a crisis?

But thinking about it, if it weren't for Liu Xian's stupidity, he wouldn't have been able to pick up such a big bargain, so he still felt lucky, and when he heard Cao Cao say good things about Tai Shi Ci, he immediately understood that Cao Cao also saw Tai Shi Ci's talent, and immediately nodded and agreed, and directly promoted Tai Shi Ci, Bai Ding, to the captain of the forbidden army.

Except for Tai Shici, most of the generals under Liu Dai's account in Yanzhou died in the battle with the Yellow Turban Thieves, but there were a few people under Liu Xuan, who were quite capable and barely maintained Yanzhou from being occupied by the Yellow Turban Thieves.

Liu Xuan really knows these people, among them Zhang Ying, Fan Neng, Yu Lu are military generals, and Sun Shao is a Wenchen, who is not a great talent in his impression, but it is no problem to be a middle-level official.

In addition, these people are also considered to have meritorious service in defending the territory, so the first three people have been named captains, and Sun Shao has been given an inconspicuous position, first to help stabilize the situation in Yanzhou, and then to decide the position based on performance, Liu Xuan wants to see what step he can do.

The convergence of this group of people, although the only one who is really considered a great talent is Tai Shi Ci, but it still makes Liu Xuan feel happy - this group of people is really a figure who can be used by him, because they are all promoted by themselves, as long as they let them see the benefits that Cao Cao and others have obtained, and a little favor, if their brains are not broken, they will not want to betray themselves.

As for the appointment of Liu Dai and Liu Xuan, Liu Xuan has not thought about it for the time being, but he can be sure of one thing, with Liu Xuan's perspective on people, he will not want to do any errand related to the appointment of people.

"Do you have any thoughts about Yanzhou?"

Cao Cao was suddenly stunned when he heard this, he was a little confused, how could Bai Zi think of asking him this question? Because according to the rules that Liu Xuan had formulated at the beginning, as a commander of the army, he could not interfere in civil affairs.

"I'm asking about military strategy!"

Only then did Cao Cao react, what the Son of Heaven wanted to know was what kind of arrangement he wanted to make for Yanzhou after this war.

After a deep sigh, he said the arrangement that he had planned in his heart for a long time: "Now that winter is about to begin, this kind of weather is not suitable for continuing to fight, so we will first send troops to focus on defending a few key points! Although our army is ready to wait quietly for this winter to pass, the Yellow Turban Bandit Army does not necessarily think so, the main reason is that the Yellow Turban Bandit Army does not produce, and they may not have enough grain and grass to survive this winter!"

Don't look at the place currently occupied by the Yellow Turban thieves and it is a very northern area, but in the winter of this era, the north of the Yangtze River is not warm, and wintering is still the most headache for most people.

Considering that the Yellow Turban Thieves are already short of supplies, and they themselves don't know how to manage and manage the place, the easiest way to survive the winter is to rob it. ...,

If you can't grab it locally, you can only attack the surrounding area.

"There are enough soldiers and horses in all the key points in Yanzhou, and there are even more generals in charge, so the Yellow Turban Thief Army will definitely not be able to step into Yanzhou!"

In order to ensure that there were no problems in the defense of various places, Cao Cao also came to Yanzhou one step later, and Ma Chao, who helped to collect local power, was also transferred to the front line and stationed one of the key points.

Anyway, Yanzhou has now stabilized, and the officials sent by the imperial court have successively taken over local power, and there is no need to use force to clean up those disobedient guys - anyone who wants to fight against the imperial court has been raided and destroyed by Ma Chao with soldiers and horses.

It is precisely because all localities have seen the strong methods of the imperial court that the follow-up handover work has gone extremely smoothly - they originally wanted to say something, but it turned out that the imperial court would not talk to you about that at all, as long as you dare to say a word, it will be cut down with a knife. In this case, they have no other choice.

After the handover work was successfully completed, Ma Chao had nothing to do, and Liu Xuan felt that it was too wasteful to put him by his side, so he simply sent him out to guard the key points, one was just in case, and the other was to give Ma Chao a chance to make meritorious contributions. After all, a military general can only get a chance to be promoted if he has established meritorious service on the battlefield.

"But ......"

Cao Cao's sudden remark seemed to make the atmosphere in the room change abruptly, and the warmth emanating from the constantly burning brazier was also driven out of this small room in an instant.

"But what?"

"If the Yellow Turban Thieves go all out to the east or west......"

Cao Cao couldn't do anything about this, and even he was worried that the Yellow Turban thieves would flee directly to the south—in a way, it was better to go south in winter, and although the winter in the south was just as sad, it was better than being exposed to the wind and snow in the north with their thin clothes.

It's just that the Son of Heaven just told him that Sun Ce had a powerful monk there, and it seemed that he had reached some agreement with Sun Ce, and in this case, even if the Yellow Turban Thief Army went south, he was afraid that it would not be able to please him, so he only said the west and east.

To the west, there are the rest of the counties in Yuzhou, these areas are all under the control of Yuan Shu, and at present, Yuan Shu has let the generals Ji Ling and Lei Bo lead an army of nearly 100,000 people, and line up to block the attack of the Yellow Turban Thief Army.

Although there are many soldiers and horses, but the battle line is also very long, if it is broken through by the Yellow Turban Thief Army under this arrangement, then it is very likely to cause the collapse of the entire defense line - but Yuan Shu's subordinates are not without capable people, and Yuan Shu himself also knows military strategy, so he let Zhang Xun lead the soldiers and horses to support behind.

Looking at it this way, although there are no monks in the west, it is not so simple for the Yellow Turban Bandit Army to attack the past, maybe they will throw countless corpses in one winter, and they will not grab anything.

Counting them, only Tao Qian in the east is the most dangerous.

Liu Xuan thought for a while, and also realized this problem, if the Yellow Turban Army really took advantage of this winter to attack Xuzhou with all their might, and also defeated Xuzhou, he would not have much to deal with.

Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei sat in the north of Xuzhou, they were only ordinary forbidden soldiers after all, and they had to consider a lot of unconventional attrition in winter operations - Liu Xuan didn't want the soldiers he had worked so hard to train not fall on the battlefield, but fall in the ice and snow.

What's more, if Guan Yu and Zhang Fei go south, then it will be another lone in-depth attack - the Yellow Turban Thieves were caught off guard before, and the two Yellow Turbans were also alone, so it is understandable for Cao Cao to fight like this.

But now it's time to throw the two of them into the enemy's army, and maybe even run into Nanhua...... That is simply the most idiotic behavior, if the two of them are really trapped there, Liu Xuan is afraid that he will die of distress. ..., "If the Yellow Turban Thief Army really takes advantage of the situation to advance eastward, we don't have a good way, we can only hope that Tao Gongzu can survive it!"

If you want the imperial army to rescue, you have to wait at least until spring.

But...... It doesn't matter if Tao Qian really can't hold on, Liu Xuan silently said in his heart: "If you really hang up, I will avenge you!"

put the matter aside, and then continued the discussion with Cao Cao.

"In short, this winter is mainly defensive, and then wait until the beginning of spring next year to launch a general attack on the Yellow Turban Bandit Army, and try to defeat this Yellow Turban Bandit Army within a year!"

This is Cao Cao's plan, he believes that with this army in his hand and those generals, he can completely defeat the Yellow Turban Thief within half a year, and the only trouble is Nanhua's old way......

However, His Majesty personally came to Yanzhou, maybe Nanhua's old problem does not need to be bothered by himself.

Sure enough, Liu Xuan said directly: "I came this time to prevent no one in the army from being able to deal with Nanhua!"

Suddenly remembered that when he came, Lu Bu took the initiative to ask for battle, and even expressed his willingness to be a vanguard officer, just in order to be able to find Nanhua for revenge, Liu Xuan spent a lot of effort to appease him. Thinking back at this time, maybe it would not be a good choice to hand over Nanhua to Lu Bu, and he could also take the opportunity to cultivate Lu Bu well.

As for whether Lu Bu can win?

Liu Xuan didn't expect him to win, as long as he could show progress and enough potential in this fight, it would make him very happy.

And will Lu Bu be in any danger because of this? What is Liu Xuan afraid of personally supervising the battle on the side? Maybe Nanhua is indeed powerful, and his cultivation is not much worse than his current self, but when it comes to fighting, Liu Xuan has the means to clean up the old way, and he also has enough means to save Lu Bu's life.

"Hmm...... Let's get a set of armor or something first, at least I can make Lu Bu fight a little!"

With a plan in mind, he immediately decided to write a letter to Chang'an later, asking Lu Bu to come to Yanzhou before the beginning of spring next year, so as not to miss the big battle to exterminate the Yellow Turban.

As for the present......

He only needs to spend the winter with Cao Cao in Yanzhou with peace of mind.

Liu Xuan nodded to Cao Bao, and the little eunuch who had been standing at the door immediately gave instructions outside, and it didn't take long for Cao Cao to bring in two hot small pots and wines under Cao Cao's curious eyes.

"Meng De has been in charge of the army this year, and it is estimated that there is a lot of food behind. It happens that the weather is cold, so you can warm up your body by eating some dog meat, and by the way, you can also taste the freshly grown chili peppers. ”

Cao Cao looked at the bubbling dog meat and various vegetable leaves in the copper basin and was stunned for a while, but what was the chili pepper that the Son of Heaven said?
