Sun Ce stood on the general platform and watched the soldiers practice the formation.

These are the newly added soldiers after the Battle of Guandu. After more than half a year of training, they have already made a large scale, and only a few battles are missing from the elite. However, Sun Ce did not want to immediately bring these soldiers to the battlefield to temper. Jiangdong's population is not as popular as the Central Plains. Too much energy loss will shake his foundation, and casualty pensions are also a heavy burden, forcing him to treat every war carefully and dare not take it lightly.

Zhang Hong walked from a distance, came to the under the Jiangtai, and stopped. Sun Ce made a gesture and signaled him to come up. Zhang Hong then got on the Jiangtai and stood behind Sun Ce, trying not to let the soldiers who were practicing in the Jiangtai see him as much as possible, and then told him about the tour of Zhao Wen.

Sun Ce listened quietly without making any comments. After Zhang Hong finished speaking, he turned sideways.

"Sir, let Zhao Wen go back to Nanyang with you, let him think slowly."

"Here." Zhang Hong responded and said, "Are you going to Qingxu?"

Sun Ce nodded. "Qingxu has suffered a lot of losses and needs to recover as soon as possible. I want to go and see. In recent years, there is a lot of importance. If you can not fight, you will not fight. If you can fight in small battles, you will not fight too much. It is not too late to fight when your family is richer. The matters of Jingzhou will be entrusted to Mr. and Gongjin."

Zhang Hong bowed and accepted the order. "Who will lead the troops to guard Jiangdong when the general leaves Wujun?"

"I want to transfer my uncle back, what do you think?"

"Wu Jiujiang is the general's uncle, so there is no problem with trust, but he is kind and if someone asks him, he is afraid he cannot refuse."

Sun Ce nodded. He was also worried about this problem. Wu Jing is his uncle, so there is no problem with trust, but he is a good man. If there is any request from the clan, he may not be able to refuse. Over time, Jiangdong may be ruined by these relatives. It is precisely because of this that he has not made a decision until now and still has to discuss with Zhang Hong.

"Sir, can there be a suitable candidate?"

"Du Bohou and Man Boning, choose one of the two. According to qualifications and political achievements, Du Bohou is more suitable. The powerful families in Jingzhou have also been well rectified, and the rest can be left to others to deal with."

Sun Ce nodded. Du Ji was also the candidate in his plan, of course Man Chong was the same, but the matter in Yuzhou had not been dealt with yet, so it was not appropriate to transfer Man Chong at this time. "Who will take over as the governor of Jingzhou? Can sir have a suitable candidate to recommend?"

"Does the general remember Wang Lang?"

"He?" Sun Ce frowned. He had a bad impression of Wang Lang.

"General, Wang Lang is a scholar, and may be a bit pedantic, but he is not a traitor. It doesn't matter if he is not as capable as Du Bohou. Just equip him with a few officials. If the general wants to reorganize Xuzhou, he must first start by picking up people's hearts. Wang Lang is Tao Qian's confidant to Tao Ying. If the general doesn't transfer him away, how can he control Xuzhou?"

Sun Ce weighed for a moment and nodded. "Sir, I'm right, so do that."

At the end of the first month, Sun Ce set off and left Taihu Lake. The tower ship walked east along Songjiang and headed north along the coastline. On a calm and sunny day, he demonstrated the scene of the tower ship gradually disappearing on the sea level, allowing the accompanying military personnel to witness it with their own eyes. These young people are his future reliance, which makes them have a bit of intuitive understanding and meaningful understanding.

More than ten days later, the boat arrived in Jiangdu. Tao Ying rushed to greet him, and Wang Lang was also in his entourage. Tao Ying was in charge of the affairs of Xia Pi and Guangling counties. Wang Lang, as his right-hand assistant, actually served as the Prime Minister of Xia Pi. However, he was not comfortable in Xia Pi. He was very knowledgeable and moral, but he was not his strength in suppressing bandits, and was much worse than Tao Ying. Therefore, his task was to guard the rear and raise food for Tao Ying.

When he saw Sun Ce, Wang Lang looked haggard. After he decided to transfer Wang Lang as the governor of Jingzhou, Sun Ce learned about Wang Lang in detail and knew his mood at the moment. These scholars are good at educating, not governing chaos. In governing the world, they are like fish in water and can be safe and stable, all the way to the ministers. In chaotic times, their role is very limited, and they are inconsistent in survival and morality, and they are also suffering psychologically.

"Thank you for your hard work," Sun Ce owed, but there was a hint of teasing smile on his face. "Zhongyun told me that without Wang Jun's cooperation, he was at a loss."

Wang Lang was very embarrassed. "The general praised it and was ashamed of being accused of it. Lang Ben was not familiar with the affairs of the document. He was entrusted by the old envoy and did not dare to resign. Now that the general is here in Qingxu, Lang can finally step down."

Tao Ying was surprised. "Brother Jingxing, are you going to resign?"

Wang Lang looked at Tao Ying and was speechless. Tao Ying's reaction was too slow. Sun Ce himself came to Xuzhou in person. Do you brothers still want to divide Xuzhou? He bowed and bowed. "The Lord of the Mansion has something to do. I received the invitation from the master a few years ago, but Xia Pi has not yet stabilized and dared not resign. Now General Sun is in Bizhou, peace is expected, so I can rest assured."

Sun Ce was also a little surprised. "Which is Brother Wang's master?"

Wang Lang raised his head and said slowly: "Hongnong Yang family, therefore Taiwei Bo Xian Gong is my teacher."

Sun Ce laughed silently, but a string broke in his heart. What did Yang Biao ask Wang Lang to do? Research and research or form cliques? Hongnong Yang family, Runan Yuan family, these are the only two four generations of the Han Dynasty, with disciples and former officials all over the world. If these people gather together, they will be a force that cannot be ignored. It would be a bit scary to tie them together with Yuan Heng and Yuan Quan.

"Is it Yang Gongwen who invited you to Taihu Lake first?"

“That’s right.”

"Did he say anything?"

"It was said that the general entrusted him to study the evolution of the official system. He was not talented and understood the "Zhou Guan", so he was invited by others."

Sun Ce nodded. Yang Biao still knew the importance of this, but just invited Wang Lang to do research. This is indeed a good choice. Wang Lang has average government skills and solid knowledge. He is a real scholar. His son Wang Su later founded Wang Xue to compete with Zheng Xuan's Zheng Xue. Since that's the case, let him do research and the governor of Jingzhou will choose another person.

Sun Ce smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Yang is still taking action faster. Since that's the case, Zhongyun, don't force others to do it. It's a pity that Wang Jun wants to do as an old official and work hard."

Tao Ying was helpless and had to nod. Wang Lang's sect invited him to do research, but he was not easy to stop him. Seeing that he was in a dilemma, Sun Ce followed the trend and proposed to exchange Tao Ying for a prosperous and comfortable county. Don't worry about the mess in Guangling and Xia Pi. Jiujiang and Lujiang are both good. You can choose one. Tao Ying was in the middle and thought for a long time and decided to go to Jiujiang. Jiujiang is not as mountainous as Lujiang, and the territory is relatively stable. It is also a must-pass place to Jiangdong. There are many business trips and travels, and the economic situation is much better.

Sun Ce agreed with mercy.
