Jiang Qin was so excited that he walked very quickly. After a while, he came to the military deployment office and asked the military officials to report. After a while, the assistant came and led Jiang Qin into Zhou Yu's room.
Jiang Qin said respectfully: "Grand Governor!"
His title for Zhou Yu was still the same as Zhou Yu's previous position as governor of Yuzhou, because the relationship between the two parties was relatively close.
It is impossible for ordinary people to call it this.
Zhou Yu looked at Jiang Qin, smiled and waved his hands: "Gong Yi, please sit down."
Jiang Qin sat down and said straight to the point: "Great Governor, your Majesty appointed me as General Annan, and asked me to lead 20,000 troops south to Jiaozhou and be responsible for guarding Jiaozhou."
Zhou Yu looked delighted, with a look of emotion on his angular face, and said, "You surrendered to the king long ago. I can see your efforts step by step over the years."
"Although your martial arts skills are far behind those of Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Zhang Xiu, and Tai Shi Ci. However, you have worked hard on military strategy and have your own opinions. This is very good."
"The only thing is that you lack the opportunity and training to command a large army in combat."
Zhou Yu said: "Fortunately, this time you go to Jiaozhou to guard the place, this is your opportunity to hone yourself. Many things are simple to think of, but will easily cause a lot of problems when implemented. So, you have to seize the opportunity."
Jiang Qin solemnly nodded and said: "General, I will remember the advice of the Grand Governor. This time when I go to Jiaozhou, I will definitely direct the war well and kill and clean up all the disobedient people."
Zhou Yu chuckled and said, "You didn't understand what I meant."
Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment.
He didn't understand Zhou Yu's meaning for a while.
Jiang Qin asked when he didn't understand, and took the initiative to ask: "The general is stupid, please give me some advice."
Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "The situation in Jiaozhou is that the Shi family, headed by Shi Xie, controls most of Jiaozhou. Although Shi Xie is the prefect of Jiaozhi, because of the influence of the Shi family, Shi Xie controls all counties in Jiaozhou. In fact, Shi Xie controls all the counties in Jiaozhou. Earth Emperor."
"The people of the Shi family have surrendered."
"However, the foundation of the Shi family still remains in Jiaozhou."
"These people have many private soldiers in their hands. They can easily cause chaos and threaten the stability of Jiaozhou. As the general assigned by the king to guard Jiaozhou, you must eliminate these hidden dangers one by one."
Zhou Yu said: "Both you and I are sharp swords in the hands of the king. We must know how to share the king's worries. Therefore, I say you don't understand because you cannot honestly destroy the bandits. You must create opportunities to force the king to The family will jump out and deal with these people beautifully."
Jiang Qin is also considered a scholar.
After listening to Zhou Yu's words, he fully understood Zhou Yu's intention, which was to uproot the foundation of the Shi family.
The Governor's thoughts were indeed deep.
However, he also agreed.
Without killing a group of people and completely eliminating a group of local forces, how can he establish his prestige and make meritorious deeds?
Jiang Qin clasped his fists and said, "Please rest assured, Commander-in-Chief, I understand. This time I go to take charge of Jiaozhou. I will definitely wipe out the local forces in Jiaozhou and lay the foundation for the development of Jiaozhou."
Zhou Yu said: "As long as you understand, do your best."
"As you command!"
Jiang Qin answered again.
Zhou Yu said no more, arranged the transfer process for Jiang Qin, and after finishing everything, Jiang Qin resigned. There was a hint of expectation in Zhou Yu's eyes. The influence of the Jiaozhou scholar family was completely wiped out, and Jiaozhou could truly surrender.
Within a day and a half, Tian Feng and Jiang Qin reunited and headed south to Jiaozhou with 20,000 elite troops.
The weather at the end of October was getting colder and colder. Although Lu Xuan was working in the imperial city, he was worried about the lives of the local people. He made private visits incognito, inspecting the surrounding areas of Nanjing County, or crossing the Yangtze River to see the situation in the north of Nanjing and understand the people. life.
The cold winter season is the most testing one. Once there are refugees, it means that people's lives are difficult. Fortunately, despite the cold weather this year, Yangzhou's governance is good, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there are no refugees fleeing for famine.
After Lu Xuan inspected the local areas, he ordered the chief officials of the northern states to strengthen relief for the local people and not make life difficult for the people during the cold winter.
When the world is unified, the government's governance capabilities must be brought to bear, and efforts must be concentrated to solve the problem of famine and cold in the cold winter. When everyone in the Wu Kingdom was busy stabilizing people's livelihood, time flew by in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye it was December, and it was December 19th.
This is the time when Lu Xuan ascends the throne.
The place where Lu Xuan offered sacrifices to heaven was in the southern suburbs of Nanjing. The altar is a circular mound, divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. Each level has twenty-seven steps, making a total of eighty-one levels.
On the altar, there is a large cauldron.
In the big cauldron, there are paper money and firewood that have been put in long ago, which are used for sacrifices.
Below the altar, Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu led hundreds of civil and military officials in an array. Cao Cao, Xun Yu and others were also present, as well as all the troops stationed in Nanjing, surrounding the altar in a solemn atmosphere.
Lu Xuan was wearing a Gong robe and a twelve-pointed crown on his head. He was extremely majestic and strode to the altar. Under the guidance of the sacrifice, three animals were offered, the firewood was ignited, and the billowing flames burned brightly and soared into the sky.
These etiquettes were drawn up by Zhang Zhao and Zhuge Xuan together with many great scholars. After a series of sacrifices, Lu Xuan took the edict of sacrifice from the hands of the waiter and said loudly: "Your Majesty Lu Xuan, if you dare to use Xuanmu, Zhao Report it to the Emperor, the Emperor.”
The loud voice echoed on the altar.
The opening sentence uses a saying from The Analects of Confucius. The so-called emperor is the emperor of heaven.
Lu Xuan had read the memorial article in advance and had no objection to the content. In fact, such an article was excellent.
He was familiar with the content, and continued without any hesitation: "Four out of twenty in the history of the Han Dynasty, more than four hundred years ago, the world was impoverished, and the people were in dire straits. Today's destiny has ended, and the land and people in the world are fighting for their heroes."
"Wei Chen, the emperor bestowed virtuous talents as assistants to his ministers, so he defeated Yuan Shu in Jiujiang, Liu Bei in Xuzhou, Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Liu Zhang in Yizhou, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Yuan Shao in Jizhou, Cao Cao in Yanzhou, Wuhuan in the three counties, etc..."
"All the ministers said: The people have no master, and they must want to honor the emperor. I dare not resign, so I will set up an altar in the southern suburbs of Nanjing on December 19 this year to declare that the emperor will rule the world. His name is Daming, Jianyuan Shenwu."
After Lu Xuan finished reading, he threw the edict into the cauldron.
boom! !
The fire that was already burning burned further, as if God was responding.
"Long live your Majesty!"
Below the altar, Zhang Zhao took the lead in shouting.
"Long live your Majesty!"
"Long live your Majesty!"
One by one, the civil and military officials shouted loudly, their voices reaching into the sky.
As the officials shouted, the soldiers in formation also shouted loudly, and their shouts soared into the sky. Coupled with the flames burning in the cauldron and the golden winter sunshine shining on Lu Xuan's body, Lu Xuan was extremely sacred at this moment.
