"Yuan Shao's adviser Xu You defected to Zhou Yafu, who was stationed in Liyang, and offered a plan and a topographic map of Jizhou."

"There were hundreds of civil officials in Yuzhou, including Chen Ji, Chen Qun and his son."

"Artolia, Wei Qing, Cao Cao and others captured dozens of military generals in Runan, including Feng Yi, the prefect of Runan."

...

Chu Tian left Li Dian and Xiahou Dun guarded Bowang, then returned to Xuchang and received information from all parties one after another.

Chu Tian captured Yang Yanzhao, Cheng Yaojin, He Yi, Liu Pi, Liao Hua, and Runan in the war in Yingchuan. He thought the harvest was already good, but he never thought that Xu You, Chen Ji, and Chen Qun came to surrender and captured Feng Yi, one of the "Twenty-Eight Generals of Yuntai".

Among the twenty-eight generals in Yuntai, Feng Yi should rank first. He is one of the generals who are more capable of fighting under Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. He is nicknamed "General Dashu". He is as dull as Zhou Yafu, but very reliable.

Unfortunately, Feng Yi encountered an opponent of Wei Qing and Cao Cao.

Feng Yi is also a qualified candidate for the commander of the army. This can be seen from the fact that he was alone in Runan County and Cao Cao's offensive.

It is not easy to conquer Feng Yi for his own use.

"Zhou Yafu, in accordance with Xu You's plan, harvested the food and grass from the Yecheng area, migrated the population to Liyang, and led the Qi water into Baigou to transport military rations."

"Xu You also suggested that Huairou Heishan Army lead him to attack Yecheng. But Zhang Yan of the Heishan Army had already surrendered to Zhao Long, and this plan failed."

Chu Tian got more information about the war in Hebei.

Xu You probably had biased in some aspects.

Zhao Long was not doing anything mediocre a few years ago, but was actively attacking the Heishan Army, which was equivalent to Chu Tian suppressing the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou. Like the bandits of Taishan, General Shi Wansui defeated the Heishan Army and forced Zhang Yan, the leader of the Heishan Army, to be loyal to Zhao Long.

Xu You's strategy of trying to win over the Black Mountain Army failed.

However, Xu You's other proposals have achieved quite a success.

"Let Zhou Yafu and Du Ruhui take the opportunity to act. As for Xu You, if something happens in Jizhou, you can go to Xiacheng to see me."

"Chen Ji, Chen Qun, Feng Yi and others were all brought to Xiacheng."

Chu Tian began to dispatch troops to Dongjun.

At present, Chutian's army is concentrated in Yingchuan and Runan areas, which belongs to Yuzhou. It will take a lot of time to be transferred to the Baima and Puyang areas of Yanzhou.

At the same time, before establishing a defensive army in Yuzhou, Chu Tian had to leave no less than 100,000 troops to defend Xuchang, otherwise the Jingzhou army might make a comeback at any time.

"The surrendered troops in Yuzhou were recruited and four corpses were organized, including Bowang stationed one corps, Runan stationed one corps, and Xuchang stationed two corpses, each of which was 40,000, totaling 160,000 troops."

Chu Tian recruited troops again.

The expansion of territory means that the scope of defense will be larger.

Yuzhou is also facing pressure from Jingzhou and Guanzhong, and the 160,000 army is not much.

As for the candidates to guard Yuzhou, this is a question.

Cao Cao should have been the most qualified candidate and could fully train troops in Yuzhou, but his position in Yuzhou is too important.

Once the governor of Yuzhou rebels and surrenders to Jingzhou or Guanzhong, then Chu Tian’s attack on Yuzhou this time will have no meaning.

The qualified guard Zhou Yafu was working as a nail house in Liyang at this time.

Yu Jin was guarding Gaotang in Qingzhou.

"Le Yi will temporarily defend Yuzhou and then pacify Hebei and then appoint other generals."

Chu Tian thought about it.

If you want to pacify Hebei, you will naturally have to bring the siege-type Leyi.

It will take some time for the troops to be mobilized. During this period, Le Yi, who is in command and politics, should not be a problem to guard Yuzhou.

On the west, Cao Ren and Man Chong guarded Hulao Pass and Xingyang to block the soldiers from Guanzhong; on the south, Li Dian and Xiahou Dun guarded Bowang, controlled Fangcheng Xia Road, and blocked the soldiers from Jingzhou.

In the middle, Le Yi was in Xuchang and supported both routes at any time.

As for Runan, Chu Tian transferred the prefect of Jiyin Gongziwen to Runan to serve as the prefect of Runan and cleared the remnants of the Tang Dynasty in Runan County. At the same time, leaving Jiyin County where he had been running for a long time can also eliminate Gongziwen's control over Jiyin County.

This is a means of centralization as a high-ranking person.

Gongziwen is also willing to serve as the prefect of Runan.

According to the default rules, he served as the prefect of Jiyin County and the prefect of Runan, and he may be the governor next time.

After surrendering to Chu Tian, ​​it is already quite rare for players to be able to serve as a senior executive at the governor level.

After Chu Tian made personnel arrangements, he looked through the information from Yuzhou and found that Runan County was also rich, with a population of eight million registered alone!

Although the area of ​​Runan County is equivalent to 3-4 Yingchuan County, it is indeed rare for a county to have such a large population.

It is said that Tang secretly accumulates strength and is ready to dominate the Central Plains, but unfortunately Chu Tian next to him develops, saying that Tang is defeated under the attack of Chu Tian's 400,000 troops.

"No wonder Tang can have so many soldiers and horses, and easily defeat Yuan Shu. It seems that as long as you farm well in a county and country and absorb the surrounding refugees, the population will definitely be large."

Chu Tian underestimated the population of Runan County.

Because Runan County is too large and it accounts for almost half of Yuzhou, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao directly divided Runan County into three counties and states, which was also a means to strengthen centralization.

In any case, this eight million people became Chu Tian's spoils, and Chu Tian got a lot of labor.

The gains from attacking Yuzhou were very rich, and Chu Tian was quite satisfied.

"Lord, Xiacheng urgently reported it!"

When Chu Tian was shocked by the foundation left by Tang, a messenger from Xiacheng came to report urgently.

Chu Tian checked the information and his mind was blank. Mulan gave birth to a daughter for him in Xiacheng!

"It turned out to be a daughter..."

This time, Chu Tian had a one-year-old son and a newborn daughter.

"It's time to go back to Xiacheng."

Chu Tian had basically handled the matter in Yuzhou, and the army was still on his way to Dongjun. He could use this time to return to Xiacheng to visit Mulan and her daughter.

"Miss Mulan has a daughter?"

Xia Tianliang learned the news and planned to go back to Xiacheng with Chu Tian.

Because Xu County was changed to the capital of Yingchuan County by Chutian, it is a large city itself, so it has a teleportation array and can directly return to Xiacheng.

In the backyard of the lord's mansion, Mulan was holding her newborn daughter with a doting look on her face.

"The lord is back!"

The maid hurried in to report.

Mulan was overjoyed, and Chu Tian and Xia Tianliang had already come in.

"Lord...you see, it's a daughter."

Mulan seemed a little incoherent because of her excitement.

Chu Tian always felt like a different life. Mulan, who was still fighting in all directions not long ago, has become a wife and has her own daughter.
