Xun You didn't want to waste time on greetings, so he went straight to the topic.

"That's right! Today I won many Guanghan County leaders, let me tell you in detail first."

Then Liu Zhang described everything that happened today, including the process of talking with Wang Shang and others, to Xun You.

Xun You nodded again and again, with gratification flashing in his eyes frequently.

"It is true that we need to rely on the strength of the family, but we must make them obedient! If the family is disobedient, it doesn't matter if you don't use it! The lord is so wise to give both kindness and power!"

Liu Zhang was a little excited. It seemed that he and Xun You stayed together all day, and it wasn't that he didn't make progress at all!

"Gongda, the three counties of the Guanghan Kingdom will soon be attached, I want to promote Yan Shan as the prefect of the Guanghan Kingdom, what do you think?"

Xun You nodded slightly and had no opinion.

The three counties of Guanghan State really need a mature and stable person. Yan Shan is capable, careful and conscientious in doing things, and he is sure to be able to establish a good relationship with the aliens there.

"I have no opinion. This time, the Lei family has contributed a lot to conquering the Guanghan vassal state. Let Lei Tie be the county captain. First, it can quickly stabilize the situation, and second, it can show the noble family of Guanghan County the kindness of the lord."

Liu Zhang couldn't help laughing, and suddenly felt like a hero.

"Gongda, to be honest, I think so too!"

"My lord, do you have any thoughts on our next strategy?"

The initial strategic goal has been completed, and almost all of Guanghan County is occupied, leaving only Luocheng lingering, and nothing can be achieved.

After taking Guanghan County, Liu Zhang's territory bordered Shu County and Berkshire at the same time, and the strategic depth became even greater.

Liu Zhang already had some thoughts in his mind. He was eager to see Xun You because he wanted to discuss this matter with Xun You.

"Gongda, I wonder if you noticed Zhao Wei just now."

Xun You's eyes lit up, he had noticed it a long time ago, and was about to talk about it with Liu Zhang, it seemed that the two wanted to go together again!

"I'm about to discuss this matter with my lord! I really didn't expect Zhao Wei to come to Yizhou with the late Liu Zhoumu!"

Not to mention Xun You, even Liu Zhang didn't know about it. He always thought that Zhao Wei, who was born in Berkshire, had always taken root in Berkshire.

During this day, Liu Zhang asked Wang Shang and others about the situation in Berkshire again.

Two aristocratic families caught Liu Zhang's attention, the Yan family in Jiangzhou, Bajun, and the Huang family in Langzhong, Bajun.

"Berkshire is in chaos right now. I heard that the Zhao family in Berkshire is not a one-handed existence. The Yan family in Jiangzhou is fighting against it frequently!"

As soon as Xun You heard it, he knew that Liu Zhang wanted to take the opportunity to attack Berkshire, so he quickly spoke to dissuade him.

"My lord, we must not enter Berkshire right now!"

Xun You's tough attitude surprised Liu Zhang.

"Ah? Why?"

"My lord, we have just taken Guanghan County, and the counties have not yet been attached, and many families are still in a state of uncertainty. The most important thing now is to completely turn Guanghan County into our territory. Once we invade Berkshire on a large scale, the Zhang Lu It is very possible to take the opportunity to counterattack Guanghan County!"

Liu Zhang smiled awkwardly, he felt that Xun You was a little alarmist.

"Gongda, Zhang Lu has less than 10,000 troops. What will he use to counterattack Guanghan County? Besides, we will definitely deploy heavy troops to defend Mianzhu. Even if Zhang Lu rushes to attack, he will not be able to take down Mianzhu within a year or so!"

Liu Zhang is very confident in Mianzhu's city defense. As long as there are soldiers and horses stationed there, it will be absolutely difficult to conquer unless there are several times the troops!

"My lord, you are too careless! Zhang Lu can contact Guanghan's aristocratic family, give them a huge temptation of benefits, and let them rebel in various counties!"

Liu Zhang shook his head slightly, still feeling that Xun You thought too highly of Zhang Lu.

"Gongda, the aristocratic family in Guanghan County has just surrendered. How much profit does it take to rebel? Where did Zhang Lu give it?"

"Hehe, my lord, don't forget that Zhang Lu is a lunatic! Since he can give Ba County, Shu County, and Qianwei County to Jia Long, Ren Qi, and Zhao Wei, why can't he give the counties of Guanghan County to him?" For each family?"

Liu Zhang narrowed his eyes slightly, Xun You's words were very reasonable, and he really needed to pay more attention.

Maybe Wang Shang, Qin Xun, Ren An and others won't rebel, but what about other families? Everything is unpredictable!

"My lord, don't forget that after acquiring the Guanghan Kingdom and Guanghan County, our territory has more than doubled! From one county to three, but there is no increase in military strength, and our defense pressure is even greater!"

This made Liu Zhang wake up suddenly!

Troops, before defending Zitong, I felt that there was a serious shortage of troops, how could I forget about this!

"If it wasn't for Gongda's reminder, I would have almost mistaken myself! I am indeed a little blind..."

Xun You finally breathed a sigh of relief. If Liu Zhang insists on going his own way, it may cause irreparable losses!

"My lord, our situation is very good right now, we just need to fight steadily, Yizhou will be in our pocket sooner or later!"

Liu Zhang nodded heavily, and gave up on attacking Berkshire immediately.

"Gongda, I want to appoint Guoyuan as the prefect of Hanzhong, Tiaowenhe to Guanghan County as the governor of Yizhou, and leave everything to guard the general's mansion to you, how about it?"

Xun You was slightly startled. He didn't expect Liu Zhang to delegate the power of Yizhou State Mufu Mansion and General Wei Mansion to them both at once. This courage is really amazing.

"Everything is at the command of the lord."

"Then let us take full control of Guanghan County first!"

Time flies, two months have passed in a blink of an eye, and it is almost the end of the year.

With the courage of Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and others, Guanghan County was completely included in Liu Zhang's territory.

The Guanghan vassal state also completely surrendered a month ago. After Lei Tie was left behind, Tai Shici had returned to Mianzhu with 5,000 soldiers from the Wufeng Battalion.

Since Guanghan County was completely attached, Gao Yan and more than 15,000 prisoners who had been captured before completely surrendered to Liu Zhang, and Jia Xu led them to Mianzhu not long ago.

Today, Liu Zhang convened all the civil and military personnel under his command. This was also the last meeting before the Chinese New Year.

"Everyone, please sit down."

There are too many civil and martial arts under his command, and the meeting hall in Mianzhu is already a bit crowded!

"To this day, Guanghan County and the Guanghan vassal state have completely surrendered, and the smooth pacification of Guanghan County is inseparable from your help!"

Wang Shang and the others knew that Liu Zhang was praising them, the aristocratic families of Guanghan County, and quickly straightened their bodies and bowed their hands to thank them.

"My lord is strategizing, I dare not take credit for it!"

After two months of getting along, the relationship between Liu Zhang and Wang Shang and others became more and more intimate.

"Hahaha, meritorious service will naturally be rewarded. Everyone, although Guanghan County has been pacified, there are still nine counties that are still not under the management of the State Shepherd's Mansion, so you should not be careless!"

The civil and military forces on both sides bowed their hands in unison,

"Obey!"

Liu Zhang nodded gratifiedly, this feeling of civil and military attachment is really intoxicating.

"I called you here today because I have something important to announce!"
