Chapter 551: The competition restarts
In fact, Yang Rui still has many things to do at hand, including foreign military and domestic government affairs, but most of the things have not met the conditions for starting to deal with them.
Just like this, the Hokkien tribe competition that he had participated in before, because Yang Rui devoted a large number of people to the development of Qingzhou and the maintenance of stability in the Dongjun and several counties, he did not have enough energy to go to the Hokkien land for the time being.
Although the tribes in the Estuary are not very strong, according to Yang Rui's investigation, their scales are quite large. To truly unify the Estuary, a lot of military strength is required to invest.
Even if the Hokkien land is controlled at this moment, Yang Rui has no spare time to supervise it.
For example, the construction and construction of special buildings and special props such as Xuanyuan Hall, Liuyun Tent, and Ancestral Temple are also of great significance to Yang Rui, but they are temporarily shelved due to the lack of corresponding craftsmen.
The foundation of Xuanyuantan in Dashan City has been laid, but because most carpenters were mobilized by Yang Rui to Guhe City and Haitian City to participate in the construction of ships, fighting ships and tower ships. In order to make the water force take shape as soon as possible, the construction of Xuanyuantan can only be temporarily suspended.
On the other hand, Yang Rui also invested a large amount of top-quality wood into shipbuilding, and the construction of buildings such as Xuanyuantan also requires a large amount of high-quality wood. There are also contradictions in material demand between the two.
Although Log City can mass produce top-grade wood, it may be because the cutout area is too close to Log City. Most of the wood is mainly 9-grade and 8-grade wood, and the number of higher-quality wood is still not large.
At the same time, Yang Rui also reached a relevant agreement with the Can Moon Alliance to provide a large amount of wood for the Can Moon Alliance to provide its own ships and construction of two ships. This was also the condition for Yang Rui to exchange ships and ship drawings at that time.
Because of these situations, Yang Rui devoted all his main energy to the construction of Qingzhou, the stability maintenance of Dongjun, the training of troops and the construction of three types of warships. So much so that Yang Rui almost fell into a busy and often had nothing to do.
This also provided conditions for Yang Rui to be able to recruit talents in various vassals. After obtaining the documents approved by Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xieyu, Yang Rui used the teleportation array once he had some spare time and went to various vassals in a noble way.
"...There are many talented people in Jingzhou, and I am also working for the official family. Why should Brother Jingsheng refuse and make it difficult for him to submit a job?"
"Governor of Lieyangzhou, Marquis of Weinan... Oh. No! Lord Bohai! Listen to my words, listen to my words...
Outsiders often say that there are many talents in Jingzhou, but most of the so-called talents in Jingzhou are just superficial. There are many talented men who only know how to chant books and read scriptures, and their reputation spreads very far. However, most of them are not worthy of their reputation. It is okay to recite poems and write, and most of them are just a fancy way of holding officials and doing things.
And it is also a pity that Liu Biao is incompetent. Since he became the governor of Jingzhou, he has not made any achievements. Although he is trying his best to recruit talents, he has gained very little. It is natural for him to be a filial and honest official to be a wise and honest official, but Liu Biao is powerless..."
In the city of Xiangyang, the capital of Jingzhou, Liu Biao encountered a very difficult guest, so naturally he was Yang Rui.
As one of the oldest vassals, Liu Biao was originally a matter of time when Yang Rui appeared and brought the imperial edict, and he followed the rules and politely made Yang Rui a moment of politeness. However, although Liu Biao looked very hospitable on the surface, it was easy to find the unpleasantness in his expression.
Especially when he learned that Yang Rui did not just finish reading the imperial edict, but also had to supervise relevant matters on the spot, Liu Biao's expression changed immediately, such as filial piety and honesty, and talented people. This is obviously a plunder of talents!
Not to mention contributing talents to the Han Dynasty, Liu Biao has been to serve as the governor of the states in Jingzhou for a year, and he has not had many available talents yet!
Therefore, Liu Biao originally wanted to refuse, but on the one hand, he took the imperial edict issued by the Han emperor, and on the other hand, Yang Rui was also famous and looked like he would not give up until he achieved his goal, which showed Liu Biao's performance.
On his own territory, Liu Biao had thought of dealing with this matter with a tough attitude. Even if the other party was in the name of the Han Dynasty, now the heroes were in control and each party was occupied, and no one who was far away could do anything to him.
However, in the end, Liu Biao did not do this. One of the main reasons was that the two generals and 100 followers were captured by Yang Rui, and he was not sure that he could become stronger!
The old nests of each prince are actually similar to those of the dragon and tiger den. As a potential opponent, it is impossible for Yang Rui to visit these princes alone. In this way, when visiting the Yizhou governor Liu Biao, Yang Rui had to bring enough guards wherever he went, and directly entered the other party's mansion in the form of reading the imperial edict.
As the envoy of the emperor, it is natural to bring some guards when reading the imperial edict. As for how many people carry, it depends on the specifications of the person who read the imperial edict. It is normal for Yang Rui to bring more than 100 guards.
Although the number of guards does not seem to be large, the guards led by Yang Rui are a bit unique. Two of the generals are Zhang Liao and Wu Anguo, and the remaining 100 guards are all senior generals trained by Yang Rui!
At present, the strength of such a group of people is not a big problem even if they go deep into the tiger's dens of various princes.
The only regret is that although Yang Rui and most princes are only potential opponents and are not hostile, the City of Sky is restricted by the system in the city or city where the princes in the Three Kingdoms region are located. This is also the first time that Yang Rui discovered this situation.
However, if you think about it carefully, it is also necessary to think that with the carrying capacity, transfer and transfer speed of Sky City, if it is not restricted, it is probably not difficult for Yang Rui to attack and take down one or two princes, and the system's restrictions can be regarded as a protection for these princes.
When participating in the plot in the Japanese region, Yang Rui did not use Sky City to enter the mountain city where various daimyos are located, so it is not clear whether there are similar restrictions. It is speculated that the situation should be similar.
"...... Why is Brother Jingsheng like this? We are all slaughtering the world for the Han Dynasty. It is natural that some errands can be given some discounts. Brother Jingsheng will give 100 senior carpenters to make up for the number of things to be filial and honest. Chang'an City is urgently in need of repair.
As for the matter of promoting talents, Brother Jingsheng can recommend a more powerful person. Even if Brother Jingsheng said that he is famous but has a reputation, he can give an explanation to the Han Dynasty officials.
....”
"Uh... Since Bohai King said that, it's not too difficult to get 100 high-level carpenters, but it's just a talented man...
There is a person in Ningyang County, Lingling County, Jingzhou who is quite talented and knowledgeable. The man's surname is Liu and his courtesy name is Zichu. At this time, he was in Weirui's year, which is enough to deserve the name of Maocai.
If the Lieyang Prefecture Master thinks it is appropriate, I can write a letter to Lieyang for carrying it. I believe that after reading it, he should stand up and spare no effort for the Han Dynasty! What do the Lieyang Prefecture Master think?”
After a period of negotiating verbal confrontation, Liu Biao finally agreed to hand over 100 senior carpenters and recommended a Maocai to Yang Rui - Liu Ba.
If you say that Liu Ba is indeed a noble man, he finally joined the Liu Bei group after several twists and turns. He seems to be highly praised by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. After Liu Bei became emperor, he served as the Shangshu Ling. He can be said to be an important figure. As a Maocai recommendation, he is very important.
When Yang Rui heard about this, he was secretly happy and quickly responded to Liu Biao's actions. Of course, he did not show too much interest in Liu Ba in his words.
In fact, Liu Biao was willing to hand over 100 high-level carpenters and also opened up the way to meet Liu Ba for Yang Rui. Yang Rui only recruited six or seven hundred craftsmen of various types in other princes, and no prince recommended a relatively well-known historical figure to Yang Rui.
Regarding the matter of Jumaocai, other princes mostly took out an NPC with some talent to deal with the matter. Yang Rui had accumulated five or six such NPCs, most of whom were commanders and talented talents in internal affairs. Just like the level in the pool when Yang Rui first entered the game, it was almost meaningless to Yang Rui at this time.
Some princes even did not take the Han imperial edict seriously at all. For example, Yuan Shu and Gongsun Zan directly hid and avoided Yang Rui, and Yang Rui had no choice!
Even if the results were not very effective after one round, Yang Rui had already learned a lot about the current situation in various places after grafting the imperial edicts. He had touched the current situation of the main princes such as Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Sun Jian, Liu Biao, Ma Teng, Tao Qian, Liu Ni, Han Sui.
Of course, it also includes Yang Rui's close neighbors - Yuan Shao, Han Fu, Liu Dai, Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao. Many of the craftsmen obtained by Yang Rui were knocked from Yuan Shao and Liu Dai...
"System Announcement: The second large-scale system plot in the Greek Civilized Area ends, and at this point the full-civilized area of the game has all ended in this stage..."
"System Announcement: The plot of a large system between the full civilization area has come to an end. The system will restart the player territory competition in one game month, and the player's foreign competition will be held at the same time. Please pay attention to the relevant instructions when setting the specific event..."
But it was said that just when Yang Rui was carrying Liu Biao's letter to look for Liu Ba, a systematic announcement happened to come.
Chapter completed!
