Lan Tian asked curiously: "The Battle of Ruxu in this year's third issue was written in great detail. Could it be..."
Jiang Wan nodded, "It was the information provided by Jiangdong. General Fu wanted Governor Liao to praise him in the Yangtze River Review, but he was rejected..."
"Oh? Why?"
Lan Tian was very confused. Liao Li had ridiculed Lu Meng, criticized Cao Cao, and Liu Zhang, so why didn't he want to praise Sun Quan?
Jiang Wan twitched his beard and explained: "Prefect Liao is an important minister of Jingzhou after all. Praising an outsider may make the lord suspicious..."
"So that's it." Lan Tian suddenly realized, no wonder Liao Li mainly sprayed.
"Sir, do you have anything important to do today?" Jiang Wan asked.
Lan Tian asked back: "I saw you frowning when I came here. I wonder why you are in trouble?"
Jiang Wan stood up and walked to his desk, picked up two pieces of paper and handed them to Lantian and said: "Take a look, I plan to choose from the external news in the sixth issue, one of which was sent back by General Hu. The other one is still transferred by General Fu."
Fu Shiren was overzealous. Lan Tian frowned and picked up the piece of paper and glanced at it. It turned out that when Cao Cao withdrew his troops, he wanted to relocate the people in Lujiang, Jiujiang, Guangling and other places. Unexpectedly, these hundreds of thousands of households fled to Jiangdong.
Lan Tian grinned after reading this. Sun Quan wanted to say that he was what the people wanted? And he wanted to use the Yangtze River Newspaper to sing his praises. This plan was really loud. If Sun Quan wanted to gain a false reputation, couldn't he run his own newspaper to promote it?
Lan Tian put aside the piece of paper that reported the battle in Anhui City. When he looked at the second piece of paper, he found that it was also related to Sun Quan. In May, Cao Cao was granted the title of Duke Wei in Yecheng with nine gifts, giving him the land of ten counties in Jizhou. Founded the country and continued to lead Jizhou as prime minister.
Lantian was not surprised by the news that Cao Cao was proclaimed king, but the first place on the list of persuasion almost shocked him. It was Sun Quan, the cavalry general and Xuzhou Mu. The others in order were: Xun You, Zhong Yao, Liang Mao, Mao Jie, Liu Xun, Liu Ruo, Xiahou Dun, Wang Zhong, Liu Zhan, Xian Yufu, Cheng Yu, Jia Xu, Dong Zhao, Xue Hong, Dong Meng, Wang Can, Fu Xun, Wang Xuan, Yuan Huan, Wang Lang, Zhang Cheng, Ren Fan, Du Xi, Cao Hong, Han Hao, Cao Ren, Wang Tu, Wan Qian, Xie Huan, Yuan Ba, including Sun Quan, totaled thirty-one people.
Lan Tian looked at the list in a daze. Sun Quan was not the king of Wei and Wu yet, so how could he be ranked first in the list of persuasion to enter? Could it be that Cao Cao had some kind of deal with him?
Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Lan Tian's forehead. If these two people really had some dirty deal, even if he had the power to reach heaven and earth, he would not be able to help Liu Bei survive.
"Is this news true? Sun Zhongmou..." Lan Tian lost his composure.
Jiang Wan nodded and said: "Sir, please relax. Jiangdong has not abandoned us and formed an alliance with Cao Cao. I asked General Hu in detail about this issue. From the information he found in Yecheng, it was said that before Cao Cao retreated, Sun Cheqi wrote I wrote a letter to congratulate him on his promotion to the nobility, so he was put on the list to persuade him to join. Sun Cheqi must have been tricked..."
"Since Gong Yan is in a dilemma, why not put both pieces of information? It is indeed difficult to choose between them." Lan Tian suggested with a smile.
"Both? This..." Jiang Wanxin said that there was not enough space. Could it be that the layout needs to be adjusted again?
Lan Tian explained: "The refugees from the Jianghuai River fleeing to Jiangdong can serve as a foil to Cao Cao's ruthlessness. As for Cao Cao's provocation and being persuaded by so many people to join him, how about letting Prefect Liao say a few derogatory words?"
"Do you want to be included in the list of people who want to be admitted?" Jiang Wan asked again.
"We have to let people all over the world know, and we can also help them become famous." Lan Tian continued.
Jiang Wan was in a dilemma: "Will this affect the Sun-Liu alliance? After all, Sun Cheqi is too conspicuous..."
Lan Tian nodded and said seriously: "Gong Yan has considered it very comprehensively, but Sun Zhongmou is indeed the first person to persuade him to join us. Our principle of running the Yangtze River News is to seek truth from facts, why not change Sun Quan to Sun?"
Jiang Wan's eyes lit up: "Sir, your idea is great. Sun Cheqi should be grateful to us. If he knows the reason, he will definitely hate Cao Cao. This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone."
"Now that Jiangzhou has been captured by Yide, send people to Sichuan as soon as possible to find out the news. In the second half of the year, only news from Yizhou will be reported externally, and an additional 300 copies will be published in each issue. Remember to master the essence of euphemism and derogation." Lan Tian instructed.
Jiang Wan knew Lan Tian's intention and used the Yangtze River News to disintegrate the fighting spirit of Yizhou's soldiers and civilians. Who can understand this advanced psychological attack strategy?
After explaining the affairs of the Yangtze River News, Lan Tian and Gao Shun returned to the Prefect's Mansion again. Because they were in a hurry to write a letter to Guan Yu, they forgot the lunch prepared at home.
Thanks to Lantian's planting technology, many counties and towns in Jingnan have implemented a three-meal system of breakfast, lunch and dinner. Because the people have enough food, their body shape has also changed from thin to strong.
Gao Shun took Lan Tian's autographed letter and prepared to take Gan Ning's transport ship to Jiangling. As soon as he walked out of the hall, he saw Lu Lingqi walking towards him holding a paper umbrella.
"My lord..." Gao Shun bowed and saluted.
"What have Ziyu been doing for the past half day? He even forgot to go home for lunch..." Lu Lingqi was a little unhappy.
Gao Shun solemnly asked: "Sir, he has been a little busy recently. My lord, please be considerate of him..."
"I don't care, you haven't eaten yet, right? Let's have a meal together?" Lu Lingqi invited.
Gao Shun raised the letter in his hand and said: "The matter that Mr. Sir explained has not been finished yet. I will go to Gan Xingba now..."
Lu Lingqi knew that Gan Ning had a friend here and had recently taken him around Quanling City, so she nodded slightly and walked into the main hall.
Because Fu Shiren unexpectedly got close to Jiangdong, Lantian was a little worried about Jingzhou's defense. After Gao Shun left, he sat there and meditated.
Zhuge Liang entered Sichuan and took 30,000 soldiers and horses with him. The garrison in Jingzhou was relatively tight at the moment. In order to defend Cao's army in Xiangyang, Guan Yu removed some of the garrison from Jingnan. Even so, he only had 6,000 naval troops and 10,000 infantry and cavalry left. seven thousand.
Samoko's barbarian troops will be used in Jiaozhou, so now in Jingnan, in addition to the trapped troops, Ganning's 2,000 naval troops, and only a small number of garrisons in Guiyang, Changsha, and Wuling counties.
"Husband, what are you thinking about?" Lu Lingqi asked softly.
Lantian came back to his senses: "It's Xiaojun here. Do you have anything to do with me?"
"What time is it? Aren't you hungry?" Lu Lingqi said meaningfully.
Lan Tian scratched his head and stood up, like a primary school student who made a mistake, "Is it lunch time? I had so many things in the morning that I forgot about it. What delicious food did Xiaojun make today?"
"Thankfully, I'm cooking today. When I cooked it just now, I couldn't find you anywhere." Lu Lingqi said while holding back her mouth.
Lan Tian walked over with a smile on his face, held Lu Lingqi's arm and explained: "I have something urgent to do with Jiang Gongyan. I came back from outside the city and went to the newspaper office again."
"Is there anything to do? Let's go back quickly, the porridge may be cold..." Lu Lingqi complained a little sadly.
"Well, it's hot and some cold porridge will just quench your thirst." Lan Tianxin said that after a long time in the kitchen, he cooked some porridge?
"Then you have to drink a few more bowls in a while." Lu Lingqi held Lan Tian's arm and acted coquettishly.
Lan Tian turned around and was startled: "Xiaojun, this porridge is not ordinary?"
Lu Lingqi nodded slightly: "Well, I added a lot of good things..."
