The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

Although the method was a little despicable, Zhou Cheng's strategy was successful.

Anyone who achieves great things should not stick to small details.

Zhou Cheng is a pragmatist.

And every scribe who enters the recruitment hall will have their origin announced.

News of Jizhou spread to Bingzhou.

In Taiyuan City, Yuan Shao learned that the scholars in Jizhou had taken the initiative to join Zhou Cheng, and he was so angry that he threw cups, inkstones, and vases.

When Tian Feng, Feng Ji, Ju Shou and others saw this, they didn't know what to say.

According to common sense, the scholars in Jizhou would not submit to Zhou Cheng or work for Zhou Cheng.

However, now every day, scholars enter the recruitment hall to apply for public offices.

The recruiting hall went from being empty to crowded to crowded.

"The lord puts aside his thunderous fury."At this time, Guo Tu stood up and said:"Although the Zhou thieves are cunning and despicable, I believe that the people of Jizhou are still loyal to the lord. As long as the lord sends his army into Jizhou, they will be able to cooperate with each other inside and outside to help the lord seize the city."

Guo Tu is very good at guessing Yuan Shao's thoughts.

He knows what Yuan Shao likes to hear, so he will deliberately try to please Yuan Shao.

Sure enough, Guo Tu's words made Yuan Shao feel better again.

Shen Pei echoed:"Gongzhi What is said is absolutely true. How virtuous and capable are the thieves of Zhou, who can compare with the lord? The Lord is in Bingzhou, and he only needs to reorganize his army and horses to recapture Jizhou."

Both Shen Pei and Guo Tu are good at observing people's words.

However, Tian Feng and Ju Shou are not so optimistic.

According to the current information heard by the scouts, although Zhou Cheng appoints these scholars, most of them are for grassroots work.

For example, household registration , land surveying, statistics of warehouses and other basic work.

Even the county magistrate can only manage civilian work and cannot intervene in all military affairs.

In Zhou Cheng's system, military and political affairs are separated, and civil servants have no right to interfere with military generals, and military generals It was also unable to interfere with local work.

As for the people of Jizhou, they were also reorganized. The men were placed under military control, referred to as"militia", while the old, weak, women and children were placed under civilian management. Their daily work was to cultivate the land, repair city walls, and build new buildings. Facilities.

Tian Feng and Ju Shuo saw a"clear division of labor", allowing the people to contribute their efforts to get food.

In the long run, the attitude of the people of Jizhou towards Zhou Cheng may change, and even if they are not loyal, they will not resist.

Because, they have already Adapted to the current life.

Even if Yuan Shao wanted to provoke scholars from various counties and counties, he succeeded. But can he succeed just by relying on the old and weak, women and children to cooperate with each other?

However, at present, Yuan Shao and others cannot find the situation. Unless they can attack Jizhou immediately, otherwise , no matter how much discussion there is, it’s useless

……

Lu Bu stationed troops in Leping County for several months.

Because his family members were taken away by Zhou Cheng, Lu Bu was angry and sent troops to plunder Leping County, robbed some beautiful civilian girls, and took them into his concubines.

At the same time, in order to strengthen his own strength and get rid of Yuan Shao's control.

Lu Bu even sent troops to the surrounding counties to plunder money and food from wealthy families, and forcibly captured young men to replenish his army and horses.

Yuan Shao knows all these things, but Yuan Shao currently needs to deal with Zhou Cheng and needs Lu Bu, so he tolerates Lu Bu for the time being.

But Lu Bu's biggest shortcoming is that he is too arrogant.

He thought that Yuan Shao could not leave him, so he acted even more recklessly.

Yuan Shao's dissatisfaction with Lu Bu was almost pushed to the limit.

Gao Shun also tried to persuade Lu Bu, but Lu Bu didn't listen at all.

Lu Bu didn't want to be dependent on others, let alone let others control his destiny.

Just as Gao Shun said.

Without him, Lu Bu would have killed Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo is still holding the emperor hostage, causing harm to the world.

Lu Bu believed that he had made great contributions to the world.

Moreover, Dong Zhuo killed Yuan Wei and Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, which was regarded as revenge for the Yuan family.

Yuan Shao would not come to trouble Lu Bu just because of this matter.

……

Lu Bu became Yuan Shao's heartache.

Zhou Cheng stationed troops in various counties and counties in Jizhou and improved grassroots management. At the same time, he gradually relocated the people of Jizhou and asked them to go outside the Great Wall to participate in the construction of new cities and the reclamation of wasteland.

At this time, Cao Cao finally returned to Chenliu after a long and bumpy journey.

When Cao Cao left Huangfu Song, he only had more than 3,000 troops and horses left.

However, because Cao Cao attacked Xiliang's army and horses many times, more and more soldiers and horses followed Cao Cao along the way.

After Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou, he had nearly 20,000 troops and horses under his command. In addition, aristocratic and wealthy families sent a lot of money and food to supply the troops and horses.

The aristocratic families still respect Cao Cao.

After all, when Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng was in power, he selected and promoted talents and was praised by the scholars.

Although they had not seen each other for many years, Zhang Miao still took the initiative to go out of the city and welcome Cao Cao into Chenliu.

Zhang Miao was indeed a kind man. Knowing that Cao Cao worked hard for the world, he admired him very much, so he spent money and food to reward Cao Cao's troops and horses, and wrote to Liu Dai asking Liu Dai to hand over Dongjun to Cao Cao's management.

Although Liu Dai was reluctant, Cao Cao followed Huangfu Song and attacked the Xiliang army many times. Everyone in the world knew Cao Cao's name, and Cao Teng was extremely famous.

In addition, Cao Cao's troops and horses are all veterans of the war for many years.

Liu Dai did not want to conflict with Cao Cao and Zhang Miao, so he handed over Dongjun to Cao Cao.

Soon after Cao Cao arrived in Dongjun, Xun Yu defected to Cao Cao after being introduced by Zhang Miao.

Later, Xun Yu recommended Xi Zhicai, a famous scholar from Yingchuan, to serve as Cao Cao's sacrificial wine.
