    (It¡¯s the last day of March. It¡¯s the last day for Captain to ask for monthly votes. For the sake of Captain insisting on three shifts, please help Captain to get a few more votes on the monthly ticket list. Thank you)

    After a cup of tea, Yan Liang got dressed and walked out of the Chinese army tent.

    At this time, Zhou Cang has been waiting outside for a while.

    After stretching his long body, Yan Liang asked casually: "Have the traitors been wiped out?"

    "My lord, Zhao Fan has been killed by General Huang, and the rest of the rebels have also been wiped out." Zhou Cang hurriedly answered with his hands in hand.

    While answering, Zhou Cang was thinking that there was a big battle outside, but his lord was so leisurely, as if the victory or defeat was already within his grasp. This calmness and confidence were truly unparalleled.

    Yan Liang nodded, "Very good, all the officers and men have worked hard. Send me the order to go and search Zhao Fan's house for me. All the assets that were copied will be rewarded to the officers and men of the three armies."

    Yan Liang never hesitates to reward soldiers who are willing to fight bloody battles for him.

    When Zhou Cang and his officers and soldiers heard this, they were naturally delighted. Zhou Cang immediately went to convey Yan Liang's reward order excitedly.

    So, on the night of putting down the rebellion, Huang Zhong was ordered to lead thousands of soldiers and horses directly into Chencheng.

    At this time, the Chencheng garrison heard that Zhao Fan was dead, so they dared to resist, so they rushed to Kaicheng and surrendered.

    Huang Zhong led his army in, quickly took over the four gates, and divided his troops into the city to arrest the family members of Zhao Fan, Bao Long and other people who participated in the rebellion.

    The county of Guiyang had not obeyed the orders of the state for a long time and had a long history of separatist rule. Yan Liang simply took advantage of the pretext of suppressing the rebellion and uprooted the rebellious forces in the county in one fell swoop.

    Treat the rebels.  Yan Liang knew this very well.

    So he decisively ordered that the homes of Zhao Fan and other leaders of the rebellion be confiscated. In addition to confiscating their property, all men who were taller than a wheel were beheaded and publicly displayed. Their female relatives were all confiscated as slaves and rewarded to Huang Zhong and other meritorious soldiers.  .

    Under Yan Liang¡¯s iron-blooded policy.  In a few days, Zhao Fan's direct lineage forces entrenched in Chencheng were almost wiped out.

    Liu Biao was weak back then.  The threat of the separatist regime, which he had always tolerated and did not dare to use thunderbolts to defeat, was now defeated by Yan Liang in a matter of days.  Then eradicate it with the force of thunder.

    A few days later, the killing ended and Guiyang County returned to peace.

    Yan Liang was about to promote a group of officials who had not participated in the rebellion to the county level to make up for the deficiencies in various positions. At the same time, Pegasus urged Ma Liang to come and take up the post of Guiyang Prefect.

    A few days later, Ma Liang arrived in Chen County, and Yan Liang formally appointed him as the prefect of Guiyang, leaving a thousand elite soldiers to back him up in carrying out his duties as prefect.

    After everything was arranged, Yan Liang immediately led his army back north.  Also stationed in Changsha.

    During this period, General Wei Yan also pacified Wuling and Lingling counties, killed those who tried to resist, and completely wiped out the remaining influence of the Liu family.

    At this point, the four counties in Jingnan are all at peace.

    ??Experienced years of bloody battles.  At this time, Yan Liang finally transformed from the "rebellious general of the Yuan family" who came to Jingzhou with only 2,000 troops back then to become a hero who wiped out Liu Biao and took over Jingzhou.

    More importantly, Jingzhou was under the rule of Liu Biao.  One county in Nanyang was occupied by Cao Cao, four counties in Jingnan were occupied by Yang Feng and Yin Wei, and seven counties in Jingxiang were occupied. In fact, Liu Biao only ruled half of them.

    Today, Yan Liang has all the four counties of Nanyang and Jingnan under his actual control. There are no important officials of the Tu tribe such as Kuai Yue and Huang Zu. All the civil and military officials under his command are in command, and all the seven counties under his rule are loyal to him.  .

    Now Yan Liang has truly achieved 100% rule over Jingzhou.

    With such strength, Yan Liang can proudly announce to the world:

    I, Yan Liang, am also a hero. If any of you dare to underestimate me again, I will make you pay a heavy price!

    And the news that Yan Liang had wiped out Liu Qi and pacified Jingnan soon spread throughout the country.

    ? ######

    Guanzhong, Chang'an City.

    In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Cao looked at the intelligence from Jingzhou on the table, with a bit of surprise and helplessness flashing between his deep brows.

    Just a few months ago, Han Sui and Ma Teng in Longxi reunited, united several Xiliang princes, gathered 30,000 cavalry to cross Longshan, and surrounded Chencang.

    At this time, Cao Cao was gathering his troops, planning to take advantage of the civil strife in the Yuan family to advance eastward and return to the Central Plains.

    The high-spirited Cao Cao did not expect that the Xiliang army, which had been dispersed, would reunite and attack.

    There is danger in the rear, so Cao Cao has no choice but to temporarily put aside the east side.With his own strategy, he personally led tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry to Chencang.

    The Xiliang army seemed to have become smarter this time. They saw Cao Cao's cunning and changeable tactics. When they heard that Cao Cao's troops were coming, they immediately withdrew from the siege of Chencang to avoid a decisive battle with Cao Cao's main force.

    Cao Cao was thinking about the Central Plains and did not want to get into the quagmire of fighting with the Xiliang army, so he did not dare to lead his army to the west. He could only leave a heavy army on the Chencang front line, with Xiahou Yuan as the commander, and ordered him to defend to the death and not to fight with the Xiliang army.  The army is at war.

    After many twists and turns, when Cao Cao freed up his hands and planned to march eastward to the Central Plains, he found that he only had 30,000 mobile troops available.

    But at this moment, news came that Yan Liang had conquered Jingnan. This news was nothing short of adding insult to injury for Cao Cao.

    "Yan Liang, this evil wolf, has grown strong. It's hard to compete with him"

    Cao Cao sighed, feeling helpless.

    At this time, Xun Yu in front of the steps said: "Yan Liang is now in full control of Jingzhou, and his momentum has been established. When we are fighting for the Central Plains, we must not be enemies with him. According to Yu, the Prime Minister might as well let him be the shepherd of Jingzhou because of his power.  It¡¯s good to win over.¡±

    Cao Cao was very depressed when he had no choice but to make Yan Liang the right general. Now he wants to make Yan Liang the shepherd of Jingzhou, and Cao Cao is even more reluctant.

    He was just reluctant, but Cao Cao knew the pros and cons. He pondered for a long time, nodded and said: "Since Yan Liang is a bad wolf, let's feed him some meat for the time being. After I calm down the Central Plains, I will turn around and deal with him."  ¡±

    With these words, Cao Cao must have acquiesced to Xun Yu's proposal.

    "Prime Minister, I think that given the current situation, it is no longer enough to just grant Yan Liang an official title. I think we have to adjust our eastward strategy."

    The person who spoke was none other than Guo Jia.

    When Cao Cao and all the counselors present heard this, their expressions changed slightly, and they all showed strange expressions.

    According to the original strategy, Cao Cao should take advantage of the Yuan family's internal strife to advance eastward from Tongguan, capture Luoyang first, then recover Xudu, and then march eastward to recover the lost territory.  After regaining the Central Plains, they would then cross the Yellow River north and completely annihilate the Yuan family.

    This has always been an established grand strategy. Now that Guo Jia suddenly said that he wants to adjust it, everyone will naturally be surprised.

    "Fengxiao, please tell me how to adjust this eastward strategy." Cao Cao became interested.

    "If Yan Liang takes full control of Jingxiang, the next step is very likely to send his troops northward and march into the Central Plains. And given the location of Jingzhou, the first thing Yan Liang needs to capture must be the land of Xu Luo. In this case, wouldn't Yan Liang's strategy conflict with ours?  ? If our army continues to advance eastward strategically, it will inevitably have to fight to the death with Yan Liang. Has the Prime Minister ever thought about this? "

    Guo Jia's eloquent words instantly woke up Cao Cao, and his scorched yellow face was shocked.

    "Of course, with the prime minister's majestic strategy and the elites of our army, if we use all our strength, we can defeat Yan Liang and seize Xu Luo. But at that time, we will be trapped in a protracted battle with Yan Liang. How can we escape and recover the lost ground?  . I think the Prime Minister is wise enough to know the pros and cons involved."

    Cao Cao fell into deep thought.

    "What Fengxiao said is indeed reasonable. I am not afraid of Yan Liang. What I am afraid of is that fighting him endlessly will delay my important task of recovering the Central Plains. Well, it seems that the strategy of advancing eastward should indeed be adjusted  "

    Cao Cao nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Guo Jia's statement, but at the same time, he had new questions.

    "Having said that, is it necessary to give up restoring the Central Plains just to avoid conflict with Yan Liang?" Cao Cao frowned.

    Guo Jia smiled and said, "Of course not. It is inevitable to move eastward. It's just that Jia thinks that our goal of moving eastward should not be placed in Xu Luo, but should be changed here."

    With that said, Guo Jia walked to the map hanging on the wall and drew a circle with his finger.

    Cao Cao and the others looked around and saw that the location Guo Jia was pointing to was Bingzhou, north of the Yellow River.

    For a moment, everyone was even more curious, but Xun Yu and other top counselors had already nodded secretly, understanding what Guo Jia meant.

    "Bingzhou is where Yuan Shang's military strength is weak. If the Prime Minister crosses the Yellow River from Pubanjin to the east, takes Hedong County first, and then goes all the way north, he will be able to seize Bingzhou with overwhelming force, and then go east to the Taihang Mountains. With the force of the attack, he can defeat it in one fell swoop.  The two states of Youji and Hebei were owned by the prime minister at the time. Although Yuan Shao did not have such power at that time, no one would be able to defeat the Central Plains at that time. "

    After saying this, the whole room was shocked.

    Cao Cao felt as if he had just woken up from a dream, with a look of enlightenment on his face.

    At first, Yuan Shao defeated himself with the land of Hebei, but nowWhy can't I repeat Yuan Shao's success now?

    To unify the world, why should we insist on getting the Central Plains first?

    Cao Cao walked to the map in a few steps, stroking his beard and staring intently, excitedly weighing Guo Jia's strategy.

    Xun Yu and other counselors behind him expressed their approval of Guo Jia's strategy.

    After pondering for a long time, Cao Cao suddenly burst out laughing. He laughed so freely, as if the trouble in his chest had finally been solved.

    ??The laughter suddenly stopped, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Cao Cao's mouth, "Yan Liang, Yan Liang, I will first avoid the fierceness of this evil wolf like you, let you be arrogant for a few days, and sooner or later I will deal with you, haha¡ª¡ª"

    ? ######

    Yangzhou, Moling.

    In the military mansion, Sun Quan's eyes were like daggers, and his eyes were filled with cold hatred.

    He clenched his fists tightly, his joints crackling, and the silk book in his palm was almost crushed by him.

    That piece of silk contains the latest information about Yan Liang's efforts to eliminate Liu Qi and pacify Jingnan.

    "Yan Liang, you thief, you took away Jingzhou that was supposed to belong to me, and burned my firewood to ashes. How can I, Sun Quan, swallow this evil breath?"

    Sun Quan slapped the case fiercely, and extremely cold murderous intent and resentment surged on Sun Quan's ferocious face like a tide.

    The important ministers below the rank all changed their colors slightly.  Piaotian This work is recommended by registered literature members
