169 Strategy of Jiangdong

After Zhao Fei conquered Lu Su, in order to prevent the incident of Zhou Yu and Cao Cao's detaining family members in the future, he persuaded Lu Su's grandmother to go to Linchuan County, Jiangdong with them, for the sake of being nearby and convenient for care.

Lu Su also had some prestige here. When he heard that he was leaving and going to become an official in Jiangdong, many people came to see him off.

In addition to the servants Lu Su brought, there were more than 200 young men. They admired Lu Su the most and wanted to make a name for themselves. They followed Lu Su and defected to Zhao Fei's command.

Zhao Fei's team grew stronger again, and the Lu family's real estate would not be sold. Lu Su left a few loyal old servants to help him manage the situation. In the future, there will always be a time to return home in glory.

Lu Su has amazing knowledge. Perhaps he is not as good as Zhao Fei in terms of the quantity and breadth of his knowledge, but he has clear thinking and unique insights on everything.

In the next few days, when Lu Su was packing up his home, Zhao Fei would talk to him whenever he was free at night.

Everything is ready, and I will take a night off and set off for Jiangdong tomorrow.

Late at night, in the Lu family's courtyard, in Lu Su's study, the dim lights were still jumping.

"Zijing, this is my first time in Jiangdong. You should be familiar with this place. I don't know if there is anything to teach me," Zhao Fei asked Lu Su with a little expectation in the room.

Lu Su pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "The current governor of Yangzhou is Lord Chen Wen, and he is a bit mediocre in terms of talent. However, if an adult goes to Linchuan County, he should first go to Shouchun County to pay his respects to the governor."

At this time, they were the two ministers, so there was no big concern for some words.

"This is what it should be," Zhao Fei nodded and said.

"Yangzhou currently has seven counties under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, including Huainan County, Wu County, Yuzhang County, Lujiang County, Danyang County, Kuaiji County and Luling County. The Linchuan County where the lord went is located in a remote place. Like Linhai County and Jian'an County, they are all in the hands of Nanman Shanyue. The county magistrates who took office before were staying in Yuzhang County or Kuaiji County and did not take office. Because these three counties are sparsely populated, miasma is rampant, and there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants, the court also ignored this and allowed Nanman Shanyue to occupy it. The lord's departure is also very dangerous."

Lu Su slowly analyzed. Zhao Fei frowned when he heard this. He knew that Jiangdong was in a rebellion, but he did not expect that the court had actually agreed to the fact that Linchuan County was occupied by Shanyue. Then he, the county magistrate of Linchuan County, was a joke. No wonder no one snatched the position of this county magistrate with him.

"My lord, don't worry, this matter is risky, but there are opportunities in it. The lord has elite soldiers and generals. Although there are not many people, if you plan well, it is enough to accomplish something. After recapturing Linchuan County, the lord can also seize Linhai County and Jian'an County and conquer the hometown. Such a wonderful achievement will definitely be greatly rewarded after reporting to the court." Lu Su's face was calm and he seemed to know everything.

After hearing Lu Su's words, Zhao Fei's eyes flashed with light. This was a good way to expand his strength secretly. Anyway, no one would be willing to come to this southern barbarian land. If he captured Linhai County and Jian'an County, he could bribe Zhang Rang and put his own confidants into these two counties. Although the three counties were all barren lands, he could conquer the southern barbarian soldiers and do a great job when the troubled times came.

"When I go to Linchuan County, I need to pay attention to two people, Wang Yu and Guo Yi. Wang Yu was the county magistrate of Yuzhang County, with his courtesy name Haiwei, and was from Chaisang, Yangzhou. In the first year of Xiping, Xu Zhao of Kuaiji rebelled and used Wang Yu as military advisor, making his father Wang Sheng the King of Yue. At that time, the court appointed Zang Min as the governor of Yangzhou, and led the Danyang soldiers to destroy the rebels and captured Wang Yu alive. Zang Min saw that he was very beautiful, so he accepted him as his disciple and became the army Sima. Last year, Zhang Jiao rebelled and Wang Yu was an infantry captain. He made many military achievements in Wancheng. After the Yellow Turban was pacified, he was named the prefect of Yuzhang and led the Marquis of the Northern Army."

"There is also Guo Yi, whose character Fu Ping is the county magistrate of Kuaiji County. Both counties are connected to Linchuan County. Guo Yi is from Shunyang, Nanyang, and also became the county magistrate of Kuaiji County last year."

"Now that the Qiang-Hu coalition rebelled, Lord Zang Min was transferred to the north, as if he was the General of the Huns. Wang Yu was promoted by Zang Min. Now Lord Chen Wen is the governor of Yangzhou. He seems to be cultivating his confidants and suppressing the direct troops left by Lord Zang Min. This should be a good opportunity for the lord. Guo Yi is a child of the Guo family in Yingchuan County. He has a deep foundation behind him. The lord and he should make friends with all his heart."

As Lu Su's analysis, Zhao Fei gradually became clear in his mind.

"Zijing means that if I want to go to Linchuan County to gain real power, I must first solve my worries and make good relationships with the two neighboring counties behind me. It's not true. For Wang Yu, I can use his relationship with Zang Min to provoke Chen Wen to suppress him," Zhao Fei said slowly. He had no idea what to do after going to Jiangdong. Now that he has obtained Lu Su, everything is different.

"My lord, this is right. In fact, the key is Lord Chen Wen. As long as the lord says he is willing to surrender to him and get his support, there is no need to worry about Wang Yu's thoughts," Lu Su nodded and said. In the past, he had only learned a lot, but he could only talk about war on paper. Today, he can finally talk about the world, and the excitement in his heart is no less than that of Zhao Fei.

"Okay, haha, I have Zijing's help, so why bother? It's not too early now, so Zijing will rest early. I'll accompany me to Shouchun County tomorrow. I'll prepare a big gift to meet Lord Chen Wen."

"The Lord is so serious," Lu Su bent down and bowed, and said with a smile with Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei returned to his own room, washed up, lay on the bed, guarded by Xu Chu outside the door, and he felt extremely at ease.

After talking to Lu Su these days, Zhao Fei has already understood his future development policy.

Before the troubled times came, we worked hard to accumulate strength. Now the first step is to stabilize the rear and become a confidant in Chen Wen's eyes. At least Wang Yu and Guo Yi should not look down on him. The second step is to lay a foundation in Linchuan County and clear out the Nanman Mountains, which occupied most of Linchuan County. He had too few soldiers, so he would definitely need the support of the two counties behind him. It depends on how the first step is completed. The third step is to lay a deep foundation in Linchuan County, and then go to guide Linhai County and Jian'an County, arrange confidants, and take all the children of the Nanman as soldiers under his command. A powerful mountain infantry in the training office came to prepare for the entire Jiangdong in the future.

Zhao Fei thought about it carefully, but there was nothing left behind. He closed his eyes with peace of mind and began to fall asleep.

In another room, Lu Su was also excited and couldn't sleep. After all, he was just a 16-year-old boy. He was from Zhao Fei's background and had nothing to do with the aristocratic family. If he could rise step by step and become a top aristocratic family in the future, he would be extremely excited to think about it.

Lu Su did not expect that Zhao Fei's ambition was much greater than he had imagined, and Zhao Fei did not tell the story of the demise of the Han Dynasty. After all, Lu Su's loyalty has not reached the full value yet. If it is too rebellious, it would be better not to say it earlier.

The demise of the Han Dynasty was very accidental. Even if Lu Su knew it well, he only speculated that the world would be in chaos for a while, but he never thought that the Han Dynasty would perish.

After all, the Han Dynasty ended the violence of the Qin Dynasty, implemented Lao Tzu's inaction rule, and rested for so many years, which won the hearts of the people all over the world. During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, the Han Dynasty was completely exerted. Even to later generations, they regarded themselves as Han people, which shows how deeply the Han Dynasty was.

The night was short and passed quickly. After Zhao Fei came out of the training space, he asked Xu Chu to rest in the carriage. More than 5,000 soldiers in the army were about to set off.

On the way to Shouchun County, he would pass by Chengde County where Liu Ye was. Zhao Fei also told Lu Su about this and asked him to help introduce him.

Lu Su and Zhao Fei have the same view. He is a good friend of Liu Ye. He knows Liu Ye’s thoughts better and knows that Zhao Fei wants to subdue Liu Ye.

However, Zhao Fei did not have much hope. This time he was just going to be familiar with him. If Liu Ye wants to become an official in the future, he can give priority to Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei also handed over the intelligence power of the Yishui organization to Lu Su. Currently, Ye Feng and Ye Yu are the ones who control the Yishui organization. However, Lu Su first checked the information they sent, pick out important information from it, and handed it to Zhao Fei for a look.

To avoid too much useless information and wasting Zhao Fei's time.

Lu Su's loyalty is ninety, and Zhao Fei is relieved to give him the right to intelligence. Anyway, if Lu Su's loyalty decreases, he will immediately take back the power.

Ye Feng and Ye Yu are definitely not the best candidates to control the Yishui Organization. It can only be said that Zhao Fei made such a arrangement to keep a backup plan. It is impossible to hand over all the Yishui Organization to Lu Su's management, unless Lu Su's loyalty reaches a full value of 100 in the future.

Lu Su was shocked by Zhao Fei's strength. He didn't expect that Zhao Fei had such a powerful intelligence organization, which was not worse than some aristocratic families.

Lu Su is more confident about the future and more optimistic about Zhao Fei. He is also extremely moved by Zhao Fei's trust, and his loyalty has increased... to ninety-three.

Lu Su secretly decided in his heart that even if he knew that Liu Ye had little hope of joining Zhao Fei, he would try his best to help Zhao Fei persuade Liu Ye if he went to Chengde County.

Lu Su knew that Liu Ye’s talent was comparable to him. If Zhao Fei wanted to accomplish great things, he would need a large number of talents.

Dongcheng County is not far from Shouchun County, but closer to Chengde County.

A few days later, outside Chengde County, Zhao Fei asked his army to camp and rest first. He took Xu Chu and Lu Su into the county town and visited Liu Ye.

Liu Ye is a descendant of the royal family and his family is much better than Lu Su, and this mansion is much bigger than Lu Mansion.

Liu Ye became famous at a young age and was known as a talented person. Compared to the fact that the Lu Mansion was deserted, the people who visited Liu Mansion were endless.

Zhao Fei gave him a famous post, but he did not ask the servants of the Liu family to take a few more glances. However, after Lu Su mentioned his identity, the servants guarding the gate immediately invited Zhao Fei and the others to go in.

Liu Ye is talented and arrogant, but he is absolutely enthusiastic about his friends without any airs.
