A few days later, the cleanup operation in Liaoxi County came to an end quietly, just like the earth gradually showing a vibrant recovery after a spring rain.

People walked out of their homes one after another, and their discussions were filled with sincere praise and joy, as if a long drought had finally come to an end, and the accumulated haze in their hearts was swept away.

At the same time, the young talents of Bingzhou College, with full of passion and ambition, took over the vacant official positions one after another, like a fresh breeze, blowing through every corner of Liaoxi County, leading this land to a new chapter.

In this change, Liu Yao was not in a hurry to uproot all the powerful families, but cleverly left some families that publicly expressed their support for him.

These families, either low-key and not well-known on weekdays, or newly rising and unstable, are all easy to control.

For these families, guidance and utilization are far more effective than simple suppression. Although they are not from aristocratic families, they can become a force that cannot be ignored at critical moments.

With their support, Xun Yu was much more convenient in local construction and raising food and grass.

Zhuo County was presided over by Tian Feng and Guo Jia, and the situation has become increasingly stable. The turmoil of the past seemed to be quietly smoothed by the torrent of time.

After careful consideration, Liu Yao decided to temporarily transfer Guo Jia to Liaoxi in preparation for the upcoming Liaodong expedition. The Youzhou Iron Cavalry is ready to go, and a resourceful military advisor is undoubtedly a beacon on the road ahead.

When Guo Jia arrived at the Liaoxi Prefectural Government, Liu Yao and Xun Yu happened to be drinking tea together.

"Fengxiao, you came at the right time. Come and try this year's newly picked spring tea. It is fresh and refreshing, and has a unique flavor." Liu Yao smiled and handed over a cup of steaming hot tea.

Guo Jia waved his feather fan and said with a smile: "Hey, in this chilly spring, if you can have a few drinks to warm your body and heart, wouldn't it be more comfortable?" After saying that, a sly light flashed in his eyes.

Liu Yao pretended to be angry and rolled his eyes when he heard it.

"Don't think about it, your alcohol ban has not yet passed, so just save it."

"After two months of preparations in Liaoxi, we will go to pacify Liaodong County."

Guo Jia shook his head.

"My lord, after we stabilize Liaodong, why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to take Xuantu County and Lelang County into our pockets?"

"Although Youzhou has been initially settled and its foundation has gradually stabilized, the road to the south is blocked by Yuan Shao like a copper wall and iron wall."

"My lord! Perhaps, we can find another way and explore a new way to advance."

Liu Yao frowned slightly when he heard it, and his eyes revealed some doubts.

"What do you mean by that, Fengxiao?"

Guo Jia put his hand on his chin, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Hehe, this is simple... Just put my ban on drinking aside for the time being, and I will tell you in detail."

"Oh, are you talking to me about conditions?" Liu Yao raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"You tell me first," Guo Jia waved his hand gently, motioning Liu Yao to continue, "When you finish speaking, if I think it is feasible, then I will withdraw your ban on drinking, how about it?"

As he spoke, Guo Jia's fingers tapped the map spread on the table, his eyes flashing.

"Why don't we take this opportunity to take the Three Han land into our pockets!"

Liu Yao heard this, leaned forward, almost lying on the map, carefully examining the distant Three Han area

Xun Yu scratched his head.

"Fengxiao, if the history books hadn't written a few records about that place, we would have known very little about it."

"I heard that the place is poor and has bad water, complex terrain and poor and backward people. Even if it is occupied, it will take a lot of time and cost to develop."

"I'm afraid it will be a burden for us to recapture that place?"

Liu Yao looked at the Three Han land, but a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The Three Han land is famous in later generations! The most powerful country in the universe!

The Korean country that likes to recognize godfathers, little Xiba.

These people have stolen a lot of things from China, stealing culture and antiques.

If I occupy this place, it may have unexpected benefits for the development of later generations in the future.

Guo Jia chuckled and said, "My lord, after we successfully take Liaodong, Xuantu County and Lelang County don't need us to work hard. They have long been under the protection of Gongsun and bowed their heads. "

"Now they have only changed their master."

"My Lord, you only need to use a little trick to retain his position as governor, and then cleverly insert our officials and send a wise and brave general to sit in the middle, so that these three counties can feel the majesty of our army invisibly. "

"When we have completely transformed these three counties and let them accept our control, we canThe local officials of these three counties were sent out, and all the officials were replaced by scholars from Bingzhou Academy. "

"The general stationed here must be brave and resourceful. After he takes over the Three Han lands, he will also need to recruit soldiers locally and actively prepare for war!"

"After our army's iron hoofs trample Lelang, the warships of the Youzhou Navy will set sail and head straight for the Qingzhou sea area!"

"Just imagine, once the Three Han lands are in our hands, Qingzhou will naturally be a piece of cake, and Xuzhou and Yangzhou will also be in our pockets. At that time, our army will sweep down from the land, and the navy will raid from the sea, just like two dragons going out to sea, unstoppable."

"Two-pronged approach, advancing by land and sea, how can its momentum be stopped!"

A gleam of light flashed in Xun Yu's eyes.

"Indeed! Let's not talk about the situation in Xuzhou and Yangzhou for now. Let's just talk about Qingzhou. It is located in the southwest corner of Lelang. If we can have an invincible navy as a wing, we can attack Huanglong in a few days like a god descending from the sky! "

"By then, the land of Qingzhou will be caught off guard by our surprise attack, and the defense line will collapse in an instant!"

Liu Yao looked at the two of them.

"Your opinions are indeed brilliant, but there is one thing that seems to have not been taken into consideration-there is no general in our army who is good at water combat."

Hearing this, Xun Yu smacked his lips lightly, and a trace of imperceptible helplessness flashed across his face.

"Indeed, most of the generals in Bingzhou are still unfamiliar with swimming, let alone water battles."

Guo Jia smiled lightly and said leisurely: "My lord, you don't have to be too anxious. There is indeed a navy in Liaodong County, but Gongsun Du has not paid enough attention to it, resulting in its mediocre development. "

"I think there must be generals there who are familiar with naval warfare. If the lord can subdue that navy, it will be enough for the time being. If not, send a few generals who are good at sailing and learn quickly to learn from them."

Liu Yao nodded helplessly, and there was nothing he could do.
