With the official documents and documents of Tian Ji, Zhao Yun, and Guan Yu scattered in all directions, although there were reluctance in various places, they could only make a choice in a dilemma.

Wuchang He Qi was the first to respond...... He immediately transferred the government soldiers who were serving on duty to the north bank and seized Hankou.

This is the key to controlling the Hanshui estuary, and if you control it here, you can ensure the stability of the Xiangjiang River and the Han River water transportation. This stabilization period was very short, but it was enough for the Beifu Boat Gang to complete the original transportation task, and make reasonable arrangements to complete the overall blockade of the Han River together with Deng Cheng in the upper reaches of the Han River.

At the same time, there are many shipwrecks on the periphery of Hankou Water Village...... The wrecks as a whole are of little value.

When Hankou was burned by the Wu army, the warships of the Han army's naval divisions were gathered together and were burned.

The battleship was a rivership with a shallow waterline and a multi-layered structure above the deck, which caused the vast majority of battleships to burn out above the deck until the hull sank.

Is there any salvage value for such a shipwreck?

Not in peacetime, salvage costs are higher than reconstruction; There is no need to rebuild the sailors, and there is no need to salvage.

As for now, there is definitely salvage value, the keel of the battleship is still there, as long as it is salvaged ashore, the structure above the deck can be repieced...... This does not require much wood. Even a ship of inferior quality is better suited to combat than a large carrier.

The significance of seizing Hankou is not to salvage the sunken ship, but to prevent the Han army from salvaging.

Followed by Yuzhou Mu Pang Lin and Yanzhou Mu Xu Shu, because of the same geographical conditions and mutual friendship, Pang Lin decided to meet Xu Shu.

This is not the time to escape and avoid suspicion, Xu Shu responded positively, and the two were at the intersection of the four regions of Wanyu and Yanyu, which were important places of traffic...... Yun County, which was also an important place where the Xiahou Shang army was stationed that year.

Pang Lin came for half a day, and had set up a curtain in the suburbs, with colorful flags fluttering, slaughtering cattle and sheep and waiting for Xu Shu.

About noon, Xu Shu came in the dust, and Pang Lin personally went out to greet him five miles away.

When the classmates and friends of Lumen Mountain met now, Xu Shu chuckled to himself: "Shiheng, I was in Yanjin to inspect military affairs, and I thought I could arrive first. Shi Heng is far away in Peiguo, but he is one step ahead of me, but he walks with the messenger? ”

"Exactly, I don't dare to linger for a second."

Pang Lin and Xu Shu rode in the same car, but there was no smile on their faces: "I thought that the people of Yanzhou were war-weary, and Yuan Zhi was not a person who was greedy for merit." Therefore, it was concluded that Yuan Zhi was invited, and Yuan Zhi would come to the appointment, so he did not wait for a reply, and came here to wait. ”

Pang Lin couldn't laugh a little, but he always felt that there was a strange emotion behind Xu Shu's smile in front of him. There are both joy and chagrin, so Xu Shu's smile is by no means a perfunctory joke on the spot, but a slightly absurd self-deprecating laugh.

Xu Shu was still smiling: "Yes, the people of Yanzhou have no fighting spirit, and since Ma Jichang and Tian Guorang lost Hanoi, they have even talked about war. In this way, it is also difficult for me, regardless of how the DPRK and China quarrel, I do not recruit a single soldier in Yanzhou. It's not that he doesn't want to help the general, but he is really powerless. ”

Pang Lin also nodded: "The same is true of Yuzhou, my brother has governed Yuzhou without levying or renting for three years, and the people have savings, but the treasury is empty and there is no grain." No matter who asks for help, I have neither the heart nor the strength in Yuzhou. ”

"Three years?"

Xu Shu squinted and smiled: "Shiheng, it's biased." ”

Pang Lin was expressionless: "It's three years, and now the Shimin family has a surplus, and they don't want to go out to fight." ”

Counting up, this year, Guanzhong also sent Jiang Wei, the commander of the horses, to send 1,000 cattle and sheep to Yuzhou...... This is by no means donated to the people of Yuzhou for no reason, nor to the Yuzhou government, but to Pang Lin personally.

This batch of cattle and sheep was distributed by Pang Lin to the county's cattle farms, sheep farms to send special personnel to take care of, breeding, for the people of Yuzhou this thousand cattle is a very valuable thing, carefully breeding, can alleviate the shortcomings of insufficient manpower in Yuzhou, can accelerate production efficiency.

Since Pang Lin took office in Yuzhou, he did not levy taxes or pay rents for the first three years, completely abandoned the management of the people, and was mainly in charge of public security, and suppressed mergers and cracked down on the powerful and powerful.

Now in the fourth year, there is a surplus in the families of Yuzhou scholars...... It was supposed to be levied after the autumn harvest and this year's poll tax before the wax moon.

Looking at the current situation, Pang Lin decided to release Yuzhou for another year, deliberately not levying or paying, and there was no money and no food in the treasury...... Even if he changes to a state pastor with a tough and arrogant attitude, he can only catch the blind and do nothing.

Pang Lin is talking nonsense with his eyes open here, and Xu Shu is also understandable.

I understand both Pang Lin and Yuzhou Shimin...... After all, he is a member of the Yingchuan scholars.

The development of Yuzhou in the past ten years can be said to be magnificent, originally Yuzhou scholars can follow the Cao family to eat and drink spicy, become the founding father, and achieve wealth and prosperity for many generations.

But the Han army tirelessly went on the Northern Expedition again and again, and the Wei army retreated step by step, and Yuzhou was almost arranged by the Wei army to become the third no-man's land.

Before Pang Lin took office, the life and spirit of the people of Yuzhou were completely tormented by the war.

After four years of tax-free and rent-free life gatherings, I can finally be fed, clothed, and live a decent life...... Now you want such a group of people who have just 'gotten rich' to go to the distant Nanyang and Xiangfan to fight, it is impossible!

If it is to defend Yuzhou, defend your hometown, protect your own wealth and living standards, you can also organize and arouse the courage of the people of Yuzhou.

But now, for the order of the Han Dynasty, he went to fight a civil war outside of Yuzhou...... Whoever forces Yuzhou to fight is the enemy of Yuzhou.

What's more, in the final analysis, the hard life of the people of Yuzhou in the past ten years can be counted on the resurgence of the Han court.

The scholars of Yuzhou did not dare to put all the reasons on Tian Xin's head, but they dared to attribute the reason to the ruling general.

For the orders of the great generals and the imperial court...... The scholars of Yuzhou are born with resistance.

Yuzhou is like this, and Yanzhou is even more unbearable.

Yuzhou is rich and has the courage to organize to defend the countryside; But there is nothing left in Yanzhou, and whoever comes to Yanzhou, the people of Yanzhou will raise their hands to welcome it.

From Cao Cao's killing of Bian Rang, Lu Bu and Cao Cao's struggle for Yanzhou, to Yuan Cao's battle for hegemony in the battles of Guandu and Cangting, and then to the later pacification of Hebei and Guanzhong, a lot of material and manpower pressure fell on the heads of Yanzhou people.

Back then, the Yanzhou Legion could surrender to Tian Xin without hesitation, so now the Yanzhou Legion is reorganized...... What will be the new manifestations?

The Yanzhou Legion, as the name suggests, is the backbone of this army is the Yanzhou scholars.

According to the scholars' qualifications and relationship networks, this Yanzhou Legion is the younger brother of the Yanzhou Legion that surrendered to Tian Xin...... It's a real younger brother in bloodline and academic inheritance.

The officers of the New Yanzhou Legion are generally the children of the officers of the old Legion.

Most of the old legionary officers have joined Beifu.

Not to mention anything else, if Bian Rang's disciple Yang Jun was suddenly transferred back from Lingnan and appeared in front of the Yanzhou scholars, the Yanzhou scholars would definitely abandon Xu Shu and support Yang Jun.

In order to avenge Bian Rang, the father and ancestor of the Yanzhou scholars formed a mortal enmity with Cao Cao.

If it weren't for the righteousness of the imperial court, the Yanzhou scholars would definitely do it again with Cao Cao, which was a deeper and deeper hatred that could not be resolved.

Yang Jun, but he almost supported Liu Xie, the mastermind of the restoration of the Later Han Emperor's family.

In order to appease the emotions of the Yanzhou scholars, the first emperor could only believe Liu Xie's flawed rhetoric and let Yang Jun go.

In order to avoid disaster, Yang Jun could only go to Lingnan to serve and fade out of the world's vision.

If this person appears in Yanzhou, raising his arms and shouting, then Xu Shu will definitely not be able to control Yanzhou.

Instead of forcing Beifu to release Yang Jun, it is better to cooperate with Pang Lin, and in this all-out confrontation between the imperial court and Beifu, the two states of Yanyu in the hinterland of the world uphold neutrality.

As for Xuzhou...... The first emperor and the general tossed the Xuzhou scholars miserably, and another Wei Yan sat in Xuzhou and continued to attack the Xuzhou scholars.

The result is doomed, it is impossible for Wei Yan to organize the Xuzhou Army, once the Xuzhou Shimin is organized into an army, then who will this army help...... It was definitely not something that Wei Yan could suppress.
