Although there are no famous talents in history who come to serve, but with the talents of the Jiangdu County family, the gaps in many aspects of the Yangzhou Army have been plugged one by one. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe operation of the entire Yangzhou Governor's Office is more healthy and orderly.

The Shilong Dojo, which has been converted into a new barracks, keeps recruiting young people.

The strength in Cao Xu's hands was rapidly expanding.

Training soldiers, storing food and grass, preparing armor, building ships, and everything is in full swing.

Just when the entire Jiangdu County was busy, Cao Xu suddenly found himself idle.

Out of the governor's mansion, with his martial arts, he may not need anyone to protect him secretly.

Walking in the city of Yangzhou, several consecutive wars have not burned to the city, and the prosperity of the past has not been damaged at all. And with the rise of the Yangzhou army, the people in the city have a little more style.

Before I knew it, I had already walked to the south gate.

In a row of food stalls, a beautiful woman of seventeen or eighteen years old can be seen from a distance, selling steamed buns.

"Wei Zhenzhen, the fetters of Ssangyong. Cao Xu suddenly smiled, wrote down his heart, turned around and left.

After returning to the governor's mansion, Cao Xu unexpectedly saw Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. There is really a feeling that Cao Cao will arrive.

Shi Long came back, he came back with a Taoist priest with immortal wind bones.

"Poor Song Yuquan, I have seen the chief manager. The Taoist priest bowed first and said.

Cao Xu nodded, he was still thinking about how to get on the line with Taoism, but someone sent it to the door himself.

"Song Zhenren, please take a seat. Cao Xu said.

After the two sides sat down, Cao Xu asked, "I don't know why Song Zhenren came?"

Song Yuquan said bluntly: "The southeast dragon is full of energy, so he entered the world to practice and seek a creation. ”

Cao Xu smiled and said, "Song Zhenren is not afraid of betting on the wrong treasure, but in the end, it will be empty." ”

"That's also a poor way to learn shallowly, and I can't complain about others. Song Yuquan said.

"Good, good, good, it's rare for a Taoist to have this courage. Cao Xu stroked his palms and smiled, "Since the Dao Chief is here, then there is a matter that will be handled by the Dao Master." ”

"Please also ask the chief to command. Song Yuquan said.

"Daoist Song, please come with me. Cao Xu said.

The two came to the study, Cao Xu took out a scripture book, handed it over, and said, "What does Daochang Song think of this scripture?"

Song Yuquan took the scripture book, and saw the five big characters in the book, "The Book of Life in the Later Land".

"I want to build a Houtu temple in Yangzhou City, to promote the great compassion of Houtu Niangniang, and make great wishes, I wonder if Song Daochang is willing to preside over this matter?" Cao Xu said.

Song Yuquan closed the scripture in his hand and said, "I will live up to the trust of the governor." ”

Subsequently, Cao Xu remembered Wei Zhenzhen's matter, and commanded the guards outside, and that evening, Wei Zhenzhen was sent to the governor's mansion. Since then, Wei Zhenzhen has become a steward in the back kitchen.

The next day, Shi Long left Yangzhou City again. This time, he was alone, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling did not follow, because there was no need for it.

When Shi Long left, he got a rubbing of the longevity formula, and Cao Xu satisfied Shi Long's desire to concentrate on cultivation, and also settled this fate.

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were thrown by Cao Xu into the new barracks for training, and how far they can go in the future depends on the cultivation of the two of them.

In the north, Yang Guang seems to have given up his intention to go south to Jiangdu, and never sent people south to conquer again.

Xuanwutang's intelligence network has not yet spread to Luoyang, so Cao Xu is also unknown. He could only prepare as much as possible, and if Yang Guang went south in the future, he would be able to base it north of the Huai River.

Whether it's land warfare or cavalry warfare. Cao Xu didn't have much confidence, but with the firearms that had appeared in this era, Cao Xu was confident that he could crush all the enemies in the water war.

Half a month later, a Houtu temple in Yangzhou City was completed. It was rebuilt on the basis of an old temple.

Cao Xu personally went to incense and worship.

After the ceremony, Song Yuquan invited Cao Xu to the back hall, where another thin Taoist priest was already waiting.

"Danyang Wang Zhiyuan, I have seen the chief manager. The thin Taoist priest said.

"Chief Wang, please take a seat. Cao Xu said that he already had some understanding of the situation of Taoism in the south at this time.

Jian'an Song Yuquan, Danyang Wang Zhiyuan, and Huiji Kong Daomao, these three are the leaders of Taoism in the south. Now one after the other is popping up.

"The poor road has come here, and there is something to give to the manager. Wang Zhiyuan said, taking out a piece of paper from his arms.

Spread out on the table, but it was a map. There is a big river, and there is a city.

After Cao Xu glanced at it a few times, he asked, "This is?"

"This is a map of Danyang City. Wang Zhiyuan said.

Cao Xu smiled "haha" and said, "Wang Daochang has a heart. ”

In August of the twelfth year of the Great Cause, after being silent for more than two months, the Yangzhou army, which had silently digested the results of the battle, attacked brazenly and divided its troops into two routes, one with Cao Xu as the main commander and the west to take Danyang County, and the other with Li Jing as the commander, and attacked Piling County in the east.

Danyang is the largest city in the upper reaches of Yangzhou City, and it is the only way to go inland to Yangzhou City and then to the sea, and its importance is second only to Yangzhou.

By taking this county, Cao Xu will be able to have more strategic room for maneuver.

When Cao Xu led the army to the outside of Danyang City, Danyang City had already made preparations. At this time, he has become the number one force in the world, and every move he makes naturally has special attention.

More than a dozen warships came down the river and slaughtered them.

On the Wuya big ship, Cao Xu sneered, and saw that among the sailors of the Yangzhou Army, there were immediately several times as many battleships, swarming up.

Among the sailors of the Yangzhou army, a series of rockets were shot out intensively, and the opponent's boat immediately hit hundreds of rockets, flames rose in the thick smoke, and screams followed.

For a time, the sound of killing on the river shook the sky.

There were not many sailors in Danyang County, but there were more than 1,000 people, and after a few hours, they were all defeated.

Between the wharf and Danyang City, there is an open space of hundreds of zhang. The sailors cleaned up first, and then a large number of soldiers disembarked and formed a formation outside the city.

At the head of Danyang City, the figure swayed.

"Let's try to persuade you to surrender first. Cao Xu commanded.

Immediately, several letters flew to the city.

There was also a soldier below who was born with a loud voice and shouted, "Lord Shi Potianshi, the governor of Yangzhou, is here, why don't you go out of the city to greet him quickly, otherwise you will anger Lord Shi's ......." ”

"Bah, a group of traitors also dare to besiege the county town, and when the imperial court soldiers arrive, they will all turn to ashes. An official scolded loudly, very loudly.

Cao Xu snorted coldly and said: "I really don't know whether to live or die, and I ordered the army to attack the city." (To be continued.) )
