Chapter 722: Battle of the Huai River

It had been a week since Wuxing County had fallen into Jiang Zhuo's hands, but Jiang Zhuo had only let one of the previous dark forces divide the rudder [Shadow Pavilion] to settle in Wuxing County, and did not adjust the officials there.

Although there is no adjustment, it does not mean that the transition will be smooth.

As soon as Wuxing County changed hands, local game merchants joined forces to strike the market, causing prices to skyrocket. There are also many small gangs that have jumped out, wantonly bullying scattered vendors, collecting protection fees, and constantly attacking leveled casual players in the wild.

As a result, many players in Wuxing County have lost confidence in [Lingyun Palace].

But in fact, at least half of those small forces and killers who bullied the scattered people were people assigned by Jiang Zhuo. At the same time, he also spread the news that [Penglai Pavilion] was unwilling to be ceded to Wuxing County and deliberately undermined the order of Wuxing County.

A week later, the people's morale of [Penglai Pavilion], which had been operating in Wuxing County for four months, completely collapsed. At this time, Jiang Zhuo let the [Shadow Pavilion] exert his strength, get rid of those players who were fishing in troubled waters, and at the same time let the Guixi Chamber of Commerce settle in, crack down on the local game merchants, and transport materials from other places to inject them into Wuxing County, and fully restore order.

"That's the case, my plan has helped you clear some obstacles, but your task is still daunting. [Penglai Pavilion] is obviously not willing, and [Chopping Chiyou] will also take advantage of the situation.

Although they have signed a peace agreement with me, the agreement does not limit the dark forces that have no direct connection to their headquarters club. Once their dark forces intervene, Wuxing County will inevitably have to be chaotic for a while. So, what do you have in mind, what do you need, you can say it right now. ”

After leaving Shouchun City, Jiang Zhuo communicated with Yi Shi on the road. This guy's household registration was automatically transferred to Shouchun City after the fall of Xia Cai County, and now he has been listed as a rebel by Yuan Shu, and he can't use the post station under Yuan Shu's rule, so he can only follow Jiang Zhuo and go out of Jiujiang County to teleport.

My Fuhua's understanding of Wuxing County is still only on paper, so he didn't directly boast about Haikou, "I can only get ideas and plans after I go to the field to observe, but since there is a [Shadow Pavilion], I hope I can directly become the helmsman of the [Shadow Pavilion] rudder." ”

Jiang Zhuo thought about it for a moment, the current helmsman of the [Shadow Pavilion] rudder was Jiang Zhuo's old brother Wen Jie. However, this guy obviously doesn't have the ability to lead a rudder independently, but as Jiang Zhuo's henchman, he is of course the best choice when Jiang Zhuo has no other choice.

Now Wen Jie is working hard to pull the [Shadow Pavilion], but asking Jiang Zhuo to replace him directly is too chilling.

So Jiang Zhuo shook his head, "You haven't made enough merit in the [Lingyun Palace], if you want to directly replace a helmsman who splits the rudder, although I think you have the ability, I won't do it." ”

I was not disappointed much, it was just his temptation, "Then, I don't have any other requirements for the time being." ”

"Good. You will go to Poyang County in a while, and after obtaining the documents signed by Kan Ze, you will go directly to Wuxing County to take office. ”

Jiang Zhuo established the [Yangzhou Thorn History Mansion] in Poyang County, and had the right to directly transfer the officials under his jurisdiction, and then report to the imperial court. By the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court's deterrent power to the local area was no longer so great.

Even if the imperial court did not agree to Jiang Zhuo's appointment and sent officials to parachute in, Jiang Zhuo could refuse the other party's entry.

After sending away the glitz of the first life, Jiang Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. When the territory is bigger, there are more and more troubles.

In particular, the newly acquired territory of Yuzhang County, the territory south of the Yangtze River in Jiangxia County, and Wuxing County. All three of these places can serve as buffer barriers for Poyang County, so local leaders must be able to take charge of themselves.

However, Poyang County is the foundation of Jiang Zhuo's power, and strong people must be left behind to consolidate his rule and strengthen his resistance to foreign invasions. So... It's really a lack of talent...

Back in Zhongli County, Jiang Zhuo got news from Liu Bei. Yuan Shu himself, after learning of the rebellion of Yang Feng and Han Xian, appeared in the midst of several other armies, preparing to boost morale.

As a result, he was defeated by Lu Bu and escaped from Huaishui in embarrassment. Lu Bu laughed wildly across the Huai River, so angry that Yuan Shu scolded.

Hearing this news, Jiang Zhuo knew that the opportunity was coming! Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he reminded Liu Bei, "Lu Bu is a person who has no loyalty, righteousness and integrity, and now that your troops have increased greatly, Big Brother, he must have felt threatened."

So even if you and him are still allies now, big brother, you have to guard against him. ”

Jiang Zhuo had a good relationship with Liu Bei, so when his caravan went to Xuzhou, he was hit by Lu Bu. Therefore, Jiang Zhuo would rather Liu Bei continue to stay than let him be beaten by Lu Bu and become homeless.

The key is that Cao Cao will get Xuzhou, and the sphere of influence of [Helping the World] will inevitably expand to Xuzhou, which will definitely affect Jiang Zhuo's interests.

"Lord, what Jiang Tingshi said makes sense, let's send a general back to sit in Xiaopei." Jian Yong, the main bookkeeper next to him, echoed that this problem was also what he was worried about.

Seeing Jian Yong seconding the proposal, Liu Bei began to think about it seriously. His troops are still not enough, and if he still divides his troops, it is estimated that he will have nothing to do to conquer Shouchun. You must know that there is a wealth in Shouchun City that Yuan Shu obtained after collecting the entire Jianghuai, and Lao Liu is also salivating for these wealth.

It's just that compared to wealth, it is still a base area that is more important. Since his debut, he has been in exile in the NPC world for several years, and his desire for a base is more than anything else.

So he asked Zhang Fei to lead 5,000 troops back to Xiaopei, and by the way, he issued a task to [Dream Back to Jiangnan] and asked them to help defend Xiaopei. There are many overlord-level forces, and after taking this task, Zhijiao sent 50,000 players to follow Zhang Fei back to help Xiaopei, but he still has 200,000 people in Liu Bei's camp, and 50,000 people in Cao Cao's camp and Lu Kang's camp.

At this scale, there is no one... Jingzhou is the place with the highest player density outside of Chang'an, and after the open beta of the game, it is the most stable in Jingzhou.

Yangzhou's player density was originally the largest, in reality, the coastal zone is densely populated, the economy is developed, and the players have a lot of money in hand, it can be said that if Yangzhou is stable enough, Sun Ce will definitely be able to dominate the world by relying on Yangzhou in this game.

It's a pity that the continuous war has caused Yangzhou to lose nearly thirty percent of the players, and all of them have changed their household registration and gone to Jingzhou or the Central Plains.

"Report! Cao Jun's soldiers sent the Huai River and began the battle of crossing the river! ”

The scout came to report that Cao Cao began to fight on the Huai River with more than two million players. And Yuan Shu's side was not to be outdone, and as soon as he came back, he personally led an army of 100,000 and a million players to sit on the south bank of the Huai River.
