Chapter 104: Restless Liu Biao

Seeing the agreement handed over by Lu Kang, Yuan Shu smiled as a chicken thief. It's good, another large batch of land has been deceived by itself.

It feels good to exchange half of Yizhou, which is still barren land, for so much land, and the other party also helps him build and pay taxes for himself.

That's what the Maison should do! Yuan Shu thought unscrupulously in his heart, what is the point of sitting at home and eating old books one by one? Let me go out and clear the wasteland. As long as you find the right way, it's that simple! Hello, hello, everyone.

There are also islands nearby and Hainan Island, and the four islands of the Wa Kingdom are also in their recent plans, and it seems that they still need to recruit more families, otherwise it is really difficult to manage so many places.

The group of families in Jingzhou should be good, with high quality and deep heritage, and the water army is relatively strong, which is suitable for helping them work. Yuan Shu has now begun to calculate those families in Jingzhou.

The sub-sealing method that Yuan Shu now adopts still has many benefits.

If the forces under Yuan Shu's command are a big tree, then these families had nothing to do while helping them grow, and they were still corroding their roots like moths, absorbing their own essence, and hindering their progress.

And now Yuan Shu's method is to directly seal the land for them, which is equivalent to cutting off a few small branches for them to use as seedlings, and let them plant the trees themselves. Anyway, in the end, these trees are their own.

One is mutual restraint and mutual compromise, the other is a win-win situation, and of course the latter is better. But what to worry about is that they have grown stronger and replaced themselves, and there is also the problem of lack of control.

However, what Yuan Shufeng did not seal was his own territory, but the "newly discovered" "barren land" around him. No matter how it is sealed, his strength will never be weakened. If you want to be fiefdom, you have to open up more territory and interests for the central government.

This is fundamentally different from the division of the Zhou Dynasty. One is to cut the meat by himself to divide the heroes, and the other is to borrow chickens to lay eggs, so that the families and capable people under his command can work for themselves and provide land and resources for themselves. Except for the land, which was discovered by itself, all other construction and development were completed by the family, and they basically didn't have to do anything to get more than half of the benefits.

Yuan Shu's methods can be seen by the family, but they can't refuse this temptation. Because the benefits of this partition are far greater than what they have now. Now I work hard for Yuan Shu, but I can get more benefits in the future.

Deeply proud of his wisdom and martial arts, Yuan Shu agreed to the arrangement on this contract with a stroke of his pen, and happily went to the backyard to chat with Feng and Diao Chan.

Soon after coming to Yangzhou, Feng got along with Diao Chan, and constantly took the initiative to propose to Yuan Shu to let Yuan Shu take Diao Chan as a concubine.

Feng can be called virtuous, virtuous, generous and decent, and it is no wonder that his predecessor would marry her, and he cared for him so much that he never took a concubine.

Because of fertility problems, Feng had suggested that Yuan Shu take a concubine many times, but the more she said this, the more her predecessor felt that she couldn't stand her, and she was even more reluctant to take a concubine. It is also because of this that the predecessor was so doting on Yuan Yaocai that he raised him alive.

Feng has also discovered Yuan Shu's transformation in the past year or so, and his son is afraid that it will be difficult to inherit his husband's career in the future, so he has strengthened his idea of finding some concubines for Yuan Shu.

After all, no matter what, even if Yuan Shu's concubine gave birth to a child and inherited Yuan Shu's inheritance, then he is also his aunt as his wife, and his identity and status are all there.

But if the foundation is inherited by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu in the end, it is estimated that he will have no good fruit to eat. Even if they treat themselves well, their descendants and the interest groups behind them will be wary of them.

Finding a virtuous concubine for her husband has become the top priority in Feng's heart. Since discovering the existence of Diao Chan and figuring out her gentle temperament, he has helped Yuan Shu to go to Diao Chan all day long to say good things, and he is bent on matching the two.

There is such a lady who wants her husband to take a concubine, Yuan Shu is happy in his heart, and he was a little cautious in his heart, so he naturally slowly agreed to this matter. Diao Chan, such a beauty, finally didn't get rid of Yuan Shu's clutches, and agreed half-pushed.

After all, she is just a weak woman, so how can she have any right to speak? In this troubled world, it is already the best ending to be able to find a strong person with a good personality to cling to.

As for her father-in-law Wang Yun, Yuan Shu naturally went to the rescue according to her thoughts, but the old man was very stubborn and refused without hesitation, bent on revitalizing the Han family.

For such a person, although Yuan Shu admires it, he still doesn't like it. After all, the future success of this product was obtained by sacrificing Diao Chan, and it was because of his stubbornness and stubbornness that he forced Li Dao Guo Yan to rebel and ruined an important opportunity to revive the Han Dynasty.

Such a stubborn old man who is a diehard Han family, Yuan Shu is really disgusted in his heart. If he doesn't come, it will save Yuan Shu a headache, after all, he is doing something rebellious.

Just when Yuan Shu was chatting and farting with his two wives, Zhang Liao and Gan Ning had already set off from the water and land routes to attack Jingzhou respectively.

Jingzhou Liu Biao was not in such a good mood as Yuan Shu at this time, he was already anxious.

He finally escaped the palm of Dong Zhuo's butcher and came to Jingzhou, but when he was about to show his strength, he didn't expect that he had just been here for two months, and Yuan Shu called before he was familiar with the ground.

However, fortunately, although Jingzhou is not yet under his control, it has sufficient armor and more than 200,000 troops. Moreover, Huang Zu and Cai Mao, the two people who controlled most of the troops in Jingzhou, had offended Yuan Shu, and they didn't need Liu Biao's orders to start preparing for the battle.

However, Liu Biao still felt a little unsafe, and was ready to write a letter to his old friend Tao Qian for help.

"Zirou, do you have any good strategies to retreat from the enemy? Yuan Shu is fierce, I'm afraid it's still difficult for me to resist in Jingzhou! ”

Liu Biao asked Kuai Liang, the chief thinker under his command. Liu Biao, the strategist who single-handedly helped him control Jingzhou's political affairs, still has a lot of trust in him.

Kuai Liang looked at the impatient Liu Biao and sighed in his heart. This person is more than successful, not enterprising enough, although the literary brilliance, but the book business is a little heavy, in the troubled times can only be a dog at most. Now Yuan Shu has not yet called, and he is panicking like this.

Sighing slightly in his heart, Kuai Liang said with relief: "Don't disturb the lord, I have an army of 250,000 in Jingzhou, and there are two generals, Huang Zu and Cai Mao. As long as we strictly guard against it, Yuan Shu will definitely not be able to help us. ”

"What's more, Xuzhou Tao Qian is a friend of the lord, and Yuan Shu doesn't dare to pour all the troops of a state to attack us. There is no need to worry. ”

After listening to Kuai Liang's words, Liu Biao also realized that he was a little too flustered. His side has an advantage in troops, and he is still on the defensive side, how can he be easily succeeded by Yuan Shu, and he can relax a little.

He didn't know that what Kuai Liang just said was some words of comfort to him, and Kuai Liang himself was not as optimistic as he said.

Yuan Shu, this person, Kuai Liang, has studied it in depth. Eloquent, quite able to understand people, strategists and generals, the army under his command easily held Yangzhou under the siege of Sanzhou half a year ago, and the strength of the battle is probably even Cai Mao and Huang Zu combined to be difficult to match.

Now Kuai Liang only hopes that Huang Zu and them will not take the enemy lightly and just hold Jingzhou.
