Three Kingdoms: I will return it ten thousand times, my lord, I will never keep it for myself

A few days passed quickly, and Xun You finally stepped into the threshold of Liaoxi County. Under the escort of Dian Wei's iron tower-like figure, he was led directly to the prefect's mansion.

"Xun Yu, I'm here to see the lord!" He said softly but firmly, with a bit of elegance and humility in his tone.

"Hahaha, Wen Ruo, you're finally here!"

Liu Yao's laughter was hearty and full of expectation. He stood up and filled a cup of hot tea with his own hands and handed it to Xun Yu, "Come, warm up first and relieve the fatigue of this journey."

Xun Yu took it with both hands, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, and he took a sip. The fragrance of the tea instantly rippled between his lips and teeth, as if the fatigue of the past few days also dissipated a little.

He smiled slightly, with a bit of calmness and wisdom in his smile, "Thank you for your kindness, my lord. I have learned a little about the current situation in Liaoxi on the way."

"At present, I have a plan in my mind. I have a preliminary idea about how Liaoxi can become a solid backing for our army to march into Liaodong."

Xun Yu's words were calm but revealed a determination that should not be underestimated, as if a magnificent battle map had been quietly spread out in his mind.

"At present, I have a rough countermeasure. Liaoxi will be the rear base of our army's expedition to Liaodong in the future, and it must be stable enough."

"So these noble families and bandits must be eradicated!

Liu Yao nodded slightly, revealing some expectation in his eyes.

"Wen Ruo, do you have a good plan to calm the people's hearts?"

Xun Yu smiled slightly and answered confidently: "My lord is currently commanding two major legions under his command to clear out the bandits who are causing trouble in the village. However, in addition to dealing with these bandits, I have a plan that may calm the people's hearts. "

"I suggest that the surviving bandits be taken to the city and publicly beheaded as a warning to others. At the same time, the lord can allocate a portion of money to distribute to the people in Liaoxi, so that they can feel the lord's grace and protection. In this way, the people will naturally come to you, and the people will support you more. "

With the support of the people, whether it is recruiting soldiers to expand the army or implementing various policies in the future, it will be twice as effective with half the effort and extremely smooth."

"For some other officials, if their mistakes have not yet caused a major disaster, they may be treated leniently. After all, it is not wise to force people into desperate situations."

"When many officials first entered the officialdom, they all had a heart to plead for the people. It's a pity that this officialdom is like ink, and gradually dyed them into another look."

"This time, I also brought several young talents from Bingzhou Academy, They are all carefully selected by me, and each of them is a pillar of talent that can be plugged and played immediately. "

"When our plan is finalized, the power of the Liaoxi gentry will be scattered like fallen leaves." "When we finish this, the power of the Liaoxi gentry will be dispersed by half."

"If they can really see the situation clearly and choose to give up decisively, we can save their lives. If they want to fight to the death, we can also stabilize the situation!"

When everything is settled, it is time to select the Liaoxi governor."

"This person must not only be able to suppress the evil wind in the Liaoxi officialdom, severely punish corrupt officials, but also act swiftly and impartially."

"And he must also have a broad mind and ensure that Liaodong's food and supplies are continuously supplied to meet needs."

"With such a layout, within three to five years, Liaoxi will be able to regain its clear and bright governance! "

Liu Yao was so impressed by what he said that he nodded slightly.

No wonder Boss Cao could leave Xun Yu at home to defend the rear while he was away fighting. These local governance issues were child's play for him.

With just a few words, the disputes in Liaoxi seemed to have been gently brushed away without a trace.

If all these complicated tasks were entrusted to Liu Yao, he might be able to barely clear the clouds and see the sun by his own strength, but that kind of thoroughness and delicacy was definitely not something he could easily handle.

Liu Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of deep thought flashed across his eyes.

"Wen Ruo, do you have a suitable candidate in mind for the position of prefect? "

Hearing this, Xun Yu calmly raised his sleeves to a corner outside the door, as if calling a character who was about to appear.

Then, a middle-aged man with a dignified temperament and a calm face walked into the house steadily, and every step seemed to be unshakable.

"This man is called Man Chong, and he is a talented person I met when I was in charge of the government in Bingzhou. He is very strict with himself, enforces the law like a mountain, and is fair and selfless. He is a rare talent."

"When he was the county magistrate, government affairs were also handled in an orderly manner."

"This man will definitely be able to serve as the governor of Liaoxi!"

Liu Yao looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.

"Man Chong, Wen Ruo rarely recommends celebrities to me. You can be regarded as the first one. Do a good job!"

"My lord is so kind, Chong will repay you with his heart and soul.Well! I will definitely live up to the high expectations of the lord! "Man Chong's voice was firm and powerful, and every word seemed to burst out from the bottom of his heart, resounding.

Liu Yao nodded slightly, with a flash of approval in his eyes.

In the long river of history, the name Man Chong once shone brightly under Cao Cao. He was first the county magistrate of Xu County, holding judicial power, and was famous for his iron face and impartiality and strict law enforcement.

Then, he stepped into Runan and served as the prefect. Since then, his career has been filled with military smoke, and his resolute figure was also seen in the flames of the Battle of Chibi.

Looking back to the past, when Man Chong was only eighteen years old, he had already shown his talent and served as the post of Supervisor in the county.

At that time, Li Shuo and others in the county each had their own troops, and their troops were rampant, and the people were miserable. The prefect heard this and frowned. , so he sent Man Chong to investigate. When Li Shuo and others heard the name of Man Chong, they came to plead guilty and vowed to turn over a new leaf and not cause trouble again.

Later, Man Chong was the magistrate of Gaoping County. There were also worms hiding in Gaoping. Zhang Bao, the county supervisor, was one of them. He was corrupt and disrupted the administration of officials, and the people complained.

Upon hearing this, Man Chong was furious. He immediately sent people to arrest him and interrogate him severely. In the end, Zhang Bao was tortured to death, so Man Chong resigned and returned.

Such a Man Chong, with a heart full of blood and a clean hand, his story has stirred immortal echoes in the long river of history.

Liu Yao looked at the two.

"Next, the other official positions vacated in Liaoxi will be decided by the two of you. Just hand it over to me when the time comes. I want it today! "

"After Wen Ruo said that, I already have an idea of ​​the rest. If nothing unexpected happens, Zhang Liao and Zilong will come back from suppressing the bandits tomorrow. Then, we can start our plan tomorrow."

"It just so happens that I don't trust the officials in western Liaoning. Man Chong, you should get ready and follow me tomorrow. At the same time, I will read out the list of vacant positions!"

Man Chong hurriedly bowed.

"Yes, sir!"
