Jiang Feng has never underestimated Caizhou.

In his opinion, although Nanyang has a stronger economic strength, a larger population, and even prospers in magic, its external ambitions and expansion momentum, and its execution ability are far less than that of Caizhou.

Caizhou showed that the unity of the top and bottom, the army's combat experience and combat effectiveness improved, were far better than that of the Nanyang Army, which had not experienced the war, and this war also confirmed his point of view.

With Caizhou's current state, Jiang Feng believes that Caizhou's recovery speed is much faster than the outside imagination, and will also be far better than Nanyang. As for which direction they will choose to develop, Jiang Feng prefers Yingzhou to the east and even Bozhou to the south, rather than the Shenguang two states to the south.

The north of Caizhou is Daliang. With Caizhou's current strength, it is impossible to challenge Daliang for the time being. Even if Daliang suffers a lot this time, if Daliang really challenges Daliang again, if Dajin and Taining Army are not strong enough, Caizhou will be in danger.

Similarly, in the current situation where Daliang lacks the will to take the initiative, as long as he does not tease and stimulate Daliang, it is unlikely that Daliang will actively attack Caizhou by attracting the same pattern as in the Central Plains War, the three heroes fighting Lu Bu.

Especially when the three western counties of Caizhou were in ruins and had no great value, and the northern Yancheng was a hard bone that was extremely difficult to chew, Daliang's willingness to send troops to attack Caizhou was even weaker.

Let’s talk about Shinkong and other prefectures.

Shenzhou belongs to Liu Xuan now, but Liu Xuan and Liu Tong are brothers, breaking their muscles and bones and connecting their skin. When Liu Xuan was in the most dangerous situation, Liu Xuan was still in danger. If Caizhou wanted to go south to take Shenzhou, it would inevitably force the two Lius of Nanyang to join forces again, and it might even attract the interference of the Li family in Guanzhong, which would not be worth the loss.

From the current situation, Guangzhou is temporarily controlled by the Gushi Army, but anyone can see that the main energy of the Gushi Army is still focused on the newly built Zhouzhou. Taking over the three counties of Guangzhou will not make any profit except to attract great hostility from the Gushi Army. Especially when the Gushi Army seemed to have obtained the double-headed recognition of the Li family of Chang'an and Daliang, it would be better to make a grudge against the Gushi Army, at least for now.

In contrast, the situation in Huaibei is intriguing.

Caizhou suffered this disaster, and Huaibei never sent troops from beginning to end. Even though Caizhou sent at least three groups of messengers for help, the Shi family always refused on the grounds that ant thieves were raging and it was difficult for the influence of the army to withdraw troops.

It would be fine. After the Taining army invaded Songzhou, Huaibei could not wait to send troops from Xiaoxian to attack Songzhou. The shape of the soup was too explicit, which made Caizhou feel a little disappointed and even more resentful.

In Jiang Feng's view, Caizhou is a typical example. I can only let the world down, not the world down. Huaibei does this undoubtedly provide the best excuse for Caizhou, but this is just an excuse, and the most important thing is the current situation.

The three states of Yingbo and Si north of the Huai River have been stirred up by ants thieves, and Han Baling's tribe even crossed Luzhou and entered Shuzhou, and some ants crossed the river and entered Xuanzhou and raging.

So far, the vassals have not seen the intentions of the ant thief, but one thing is certain. The main force of the ant thief will no longer gain a foothold in the Yingbo and Si states, otherwise the ant thief will not stir up the Yingbo and Si states in such a locust-like way and eat them all.

The three prefectures of Ying, Bo and Si are not suitable for foundation. From the territory of the entire eastern part of Henan Road, Huainan Road and even Jiangnan Road, there are only two or three places with domineering spirit. First, Jiangdu; second, Jiangning; third, Pengcheng, and again, we can talk about Luzhou, Shouzhou and Hongzhou.

From a realistic perspective, it seems that the most likely place to choose the land of the ant thief, followed by Luzhou, but Jiang Feng believes that the possibility of Shouzhou between the two is the smallest.

Because there are too many ant thieves now. Even if there are not tens of thousands of people in Han Baling's army, the number of ant thieves in Qin Quan's headquarters exceeds 150,000. Excluding the minion army, their main army and elite forces are more than 80,000. This is not something that a small Shouzhou can accommodate.

It is also not something that Luzhou can accommodate. Even if these two places are combined, they cannot support such a huge army.

For these ant thieves, it is obviously impossible to let Qin Quan dissolve these brothers who have been following them to fight to death. It may even be a mutiny. It is obviously impossible for Qin Quan to break his wings like this.

Then the ant thieves can only aim at those three places, but Pengcheng is the nest of the influencer army, and the foundation of the Shi family is. Jiang Feng judged that it would be difficult for Qin Quan to take Pengcheng as his foundation for his kingly dominance.

The rest are Jiangning and Jiangdu.

Jiangning was the former governor of Huaixi. It is now a county in Runzhou. The entire Runzhou is rich, a typical fish and rice town with developed trade. However, Runzhou is narrow and it is difficult for a state to support a large group of ant thieves. Another neighboring Jiangdu is richer, with a wealth of ten thousand chunks of money. The reputation of riding a crane to Yangzhou has long been spread throughout the country. The Wu Kingdom took this as its capital and the foundation for its establishment.

If it were normal, Qin Quan would rather go to Pengcheng than to attack Jiangning and Jiangdu, but it is hard to say now.

The domestic situation in Wu has always been unstable, and this is not news. Yang Xingmi made a great talent and made a fortune in Luzhou, rose to Jiangning, and established his capital in Jiangdu. However, his two sons were tiger fathers and dog sons, and it was difficult to maintain their foundation.

Fortunately, Yang Xingmi had many old subordinates. Although the powerful ministers were in the dynasty, they were still able to stay together. However, over the past year, the domestic situation in Wu State has become tighter. Jiang Feng didn't know if Qin Quan also discovered this and wanted to attack Wu State.

Of course, this is just a guess from Jiang Feng himself, and it is not ruled out that Qin Quan wanted to live a long life, and Lu and the two states were used as their foundation to slowly plan for the surrounding areas.

But there is no doubt that the ant thieves will not stay in Yingbo and Si provinces for too long, because there is no place for the ants to eat in Yingbo and Si provinces. If you drag it down, the ant thieves will have internal conflicts about eating. Therefore, Jiang Feng judged that it would take at least one or two months to two or three months, and Qin Quan would definitely leave these three states.

Either they directly attacked Xuzhou and Haizhou, where there are still places to eat in these two places, or they went south to Huainan, where there is even more places worth stopping.

Once the ant thief leaves Huaibei, he will be greatly damaged by the disrupted Huaibei energy, especially Yingzhou, which is far away from Xuzhou but is close to Caizhou. Naturally, it will become the best place to set foot on Caizhou and the best springboard for Caizhou to reach out to Huaibei in the future.

Jiang Feng has considered this issue for a long time, but the historical trend has gone astray countless times, and Jiang Feng has no way of knowing what the future will be. He can only think about it according to the historical trend and his mentality towards the current vassals.

Seeing Jiang Feng's distracted look, Ju Li was not angry. She knew that Jiang Feng was so busy that he was thinking about things even when he was eating and sleeping. The Gushi Army's commander's mansion was almost every day, and he was not busy until late at night and would not stop at all.

Now Ju Qi lives in the small courtyard of Jiang Feng's residence, of course, living in a separate room, in order to protect Jiang Feng's safety. Although Jiang Feng has entered the Tianjing Restoration Period and is no longer comparable to Ju Qi's martial arts, Ju Qi is much richer in his experience in preventing assassination.

Give Wu Xia a look and Ju Qi left quietly with Wu Xia, leaving only Jiang Feng alone in the yard thinking about the matter.

It was not until Zhang Wanshan's arrival that Jiang Feng woke up from his meditation.

"Mr. Cui said that the envoy from Chang'an has passed Guangzhou and is on the way to Gushi." Zhang Wanshan bowed slightly, "Mr. Cui wants to ask you to go over and discuss what to welcome the envoy."

Xuzhou has received a reply from Chang'an and was officially established. The edict has been widely posted in Gushi, Yincheng, the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and Huoshan.

For the gentry and official class, this is undoubtedly a big deal, but for ordinary people, they may not have left their ancestors' residence for two hundred miles in their lifetime, and they may not even have the opportunity to go to the county town. Therefore, this kind of change in administrative divisions is of little significance to them.

"Well, I understand, let's go." Jiang Feng nodded.

"Erlang, do you need me to go?" Ju Qi had already changed into clothes and walked out.

Jiang Feng didn't want to bother Ju Li, after all, he was just a few steps away in the city and was very vigilant everywhere. If an assassin killer wants to assassin and assassin is a master of the little heaven, it may be difficult for him to escape unless he is a master of the small heaven.

But seeing the expectation in Ju Li's eyes, Jiang Feng also knew that Ju Li actually wanted to accompany him. Thinking that she was fine at home, he nodded, "Then let's go together."

From Jiang Feng's current residence to the commander's mansion, there are less than three hundred steps, a small alley, and then turn a bend to arrive. On this section of the road, three high platform posts were set up to prevent enemy attacks that infiltrate into the city.

This section of the road is basically home to senior high-level officers of the Gushi Army. According to the Gushi Army regulations, military commander, military commander, battalion commander, deputy envoy, and deputy envoy must live in the military camp every day. Only the commander and Duyuhou or deputy envoy can take turns to go home to rest on holidays. This system can not only ensure that daily training and management are not affected, but also take into account the certain special characteristics of senior officers.

Even Jiang Feng himself lives in the military camp for more than half of his time. It is because there are many things that require consultation and coordination with the local government that he has to work in the military commander's office. Otherwise, he would rather be in the military camp, at least he is more secure.
