Chapter 103 101. What if Zhang Xiu votes for Cao instead? (Please subscribe with a monthly ticket)

The fourth year of Jian'an (AD 199) was actually a relatively stable year. Although the two major power groups in the north were ready for war, they had not yet publicly declared war.

The major forces of Hanzhong, Yizhou, Jiaozhou, Jingzhou, and Soochow have not undergone many changes.

Only Yuan Shu's name and power have been completely eliminated in this troubled chessboard, and there is no role for him anymore.

Now in August, Cao Cao has also marched into Liyang to confront Yuan Shao.

In the study, Huang Yueying and Gan Ning sat opposite each other at the desk.

The former paints a picture of the current situation of each force, while the latter is thoughtful.

Huang Yueying looked at the situation of Yuzhang County and Soochow. According to the historical process, Yuzhang County will also completely become a part of Soochow this year.

Hua Xin, the prefect of Yuzhang, temporarily returned to Soochow. Next year, he will be conquered by Emperor Xian (Cao) to go to Xuchang. After all, everyone nominally has to listen to the emperor's orders. In the following decades, this person has been Cao Wei's

Loyal to death.

Liu Biao could not keep such a person, so Huang Yueying did not consider keeping this person.

But, Yuzhang County... is also a big county!

"Achu wants Yuzhang County?" Gan Ning asked, seeing the confusion and helplessness in his adopted sister's eyes.

"I want to, but I can't get it." Huang Yueying sighed, "Also, although my uncle is enterprising, he is not ready to go to war with Soochow."

Liu Biao was a very contradictory person. He wanted to achieve great things but was also ambitious. His courage was sometimes strong and sometimes weak. His personality was extremely easy to be complacent, he was content with the status quo, and he was suspicious and indecisive in employing people.

Of course, this is true for most people in the world.

Liu Biao is not just an example.

Huang Yueying wants to take Yuzhang County, but the time has not come yet.

Although Chu Anjun and "Huang Chu" are famous, the former is a woman and came to the throne because of Chu Zhi's achievements. There is currently no example of a woman governing a place.

The latter is a man and has a good reputation, but his age is always a constraint.

The most important thing is that Liu Biao would not let her go out during this period.

Among the people in her hands, only Gan Ning could be released to take charge of the attack on Soochow, so she asked, "Brother, do you want to be the governor of Yuzhang?"

Gan Ning thought for a while and shook his head, "If I go for my brother, what will Achu do?"

"Brother, don't worry about me." Huang Yueying also shook her head, "If we can capture Yuzhang County, then if Sun Bofu wants to attack Jiangxia, he will have to take Yuzhang County into consideration.

Moreover, there is a lot of water in Yuzhang County, and the Ru River, Peng River, Dayu Qiao River, Zhang River, Gong River, Fu River, Yudai River, Jin River, and Lian River are controlled and diverted into one river, which flows into the big lake to conceive the army.

Mountain Lake, Jinxi Lake, Yao Lake, South Lake, North Lake and other hundreds of lakes are a good place to train sailors."

Gan Ning frowned, "But Hua Xin, the governor of Yuzhang, won't be easy to deal with."

"I never thought about dealing with him." Huang Yueying smiled, "Let's go to the state pastoral office first. Brother, you don't have to say much then."

"Okay." Gan Ning agreed.

So, the two of them packed up, took simple gifts, mounted their horses, and headed to the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion.

…

Liu Biao heard his attendants coming to announce the time. Not long after the group of confidants dispersed, they discussed Jingzhou's current preparations for war.

I originally wanted to tell my attendants to call Kuai Liang and Cai Mao back, but after I thought about it, the former was not in good health and the latter had other thoughts, so I forgot about it.

After seeing "Huang Chu" and the strong man Gan Ning behind him, he once again had the idea that he could trust these two people.

Without him, it's just because the little gentleman's handle is in his hands.

Relative relationships are just a little bit of a trust bonus.

"Achu has met my uncle."

"Gan Ning met Zhou Mu."

"Okay, don't be too polite, just sit down." Liu Biao waved his hand and looked at Huang Yueying, "Are you willing to come back? I have never seen you take care of the affairs of the Academy."

"Aren't Mr. Song and Mr. Qi Wu here?" Huang Yueying chuckled, "Besides, Achu went back to harvest in the autumn."

"Yes, your four and a half stone per mu is indeed a good harvest." Liu Biao smiled, "How do you feel now that you have a fief?"

Huang Yueying was not in a hurry, pretending to think for a while, then straightened her body and said, "Poor."

Liu Biao laughed.

"My uncle knew that if A Chuzhen took away the food of three thousand households, the county government would be unable to move, yet he did not send anyone to resolve the matter."

Liu Biao smiled and said, "A Chu still lacks this little money?"

"It's one thing whether it's almost the same, but it's another thing if you don't care about it, uncle."

"Yes, yes, Achu is right." Liu Biao nodded, "Then we will send someone to solve it in a few days."

Huang Yueying:......

"Forget it, I really don't need this little money." Huang Yueying was speechless. Now that the county has just been cleared, how can Liu Biao send people to cause trouble?

"You." Liu Biao also smiled, "By the way, Zhongxuan went to Jiangdong and brought you the apology there. I will order someone to deliver it to your house tomorrow."

"Thank you, uncle."

"Over in Jiangdong, Zhong was asked to spread the word."

"What?"

"Sun Ce wants to marry Chu Anjun for his younger brother Sun Quan."

Huang Yueying laughed, "Sun Quan?"

"Yeah." Liu Biao nodded and smiled.

"Uncle, don't be joking. I heard that Sun Quan has a purple beard and blue eyes, and his eyes are shining. Fang Yi has a big mouth... he is very scary." Huang Yueying used the description in the novel to scare Liu Biao.

"That's not right... Sun Quan has a majestic appearance and is different from ordinary people. It is said that... he has been both civilized and martial since he was a child..." Liu Biao was also confused, "Achu, where did you hear that?"

"Oh, uncle, do you want to agree?"

"I'm not your father." Liu Biao laughed.

"That means you don't agree. Uncle, please don't scare Ah Chu!"

"Okay, okay, but... A Chu is now thirteen and has not yet discussed marriage. In less than two years, A Chu will be a hairdresser. Therefore, my uncle also wants to know what A Chu wants from his future husband.

So that I can take care of this for A Chu."

"Good-looking."

Liu Biao:......

"Only?"

"yes."

Liu Biao:......

Forget it, he really couldn't understand the little girl's thoughts, so he stopped talking about it.

Besides, Ah Chu can't get married so soon, otherwise... wouldn't he lose a young gentleman in his account?

"Okay, my uncle will refuse this for you." Liu Biao shook his head, "What does Achu think of the situation in the north?"

"Does Mr. Yuan have a letter asking for an alliance with my uncle?"

"have."

"Have you ever asked my uncle why he is on good terms with Cao Cao?"

"have."

"Then my uncle can write back and say that he is just making excuses with Cao Cao?"

"Yes." Liu Biao listened to Huang Yueying's question and stroked his beard with satisfaction.

Huang Yueying, on the other hand, immediately understood the current situation in the north.

"Does uncle know that Mr. Yuan will still write to Zhang Xiu?"

"so what?"

"What if Zhang Xiu surrenders to Cao Cao instead?"

"Absolutely impossible." Liu Biao rejected it immediately, "Achu Kezhi... Zhang Xiu's aunt Zou..."

Huang Yueying nodded, "I know, I was bullied by Cao Cao."

"Then Achu can still say that Zhang Xiu will surrender to Cao Cao?"

"yes."

Zhang Xiu had no such intention, but Jia Xu did.

Liu Biao frowned tightly, "Is there any basis for what A Chu said?"
