Chapter 344

"Hmm!"

Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Xun You: "Gongda, the location of Jiangxia is extremely critical, and the former Administrator of Jiangxia has already been scared away by Sun Jian. You will temporarily serve as the Administrator of Jiangxia. After Gao Shun and Huang Gai take Jiangxia, you will sit there for me;"

"At the same time, Gao Shun, you will also be stationed in Jiangxia at that time, cooperate with Gongda to defend Jiangxia, suppress chaos, and at the same time guard against the counterattack of Yuan Shu and Sun Jian from the north."

"Yes!"

Xun You and Gao Shun accepted the order immediately.

Su Xuan looked at Tian Feng: "Yuanhao, after Huang Gai and the others take Changsha, you will temporarily serve as the Administrator of Changsha and clear out the backhands left by Sun Jian in Changsha;"

"Since he dared to kill the former Inspector of Jingzhou, Wang Rui, and the Administrator of Nanyang, Zhang Zi, and also looted Jiangxia Commandery, and now even brought troops with Ji Ling to attack me, then he shouldn't think about Changsha anymore!"

"Of course, Gongfu, you will divide your troops to be stationed in Changsha at that time and build a new water navy stronghold in Dongting Lake;"

"If you can directly occupy the water navy stronghold that Sun Jian spoke of in Changsha and force his water navy to surrender, that would be even better!"

"Yes!"

Tian Feng and Huang Gai stood up and accepted the order.

Su Xuan then looked at Cheng Yu: "Zhongde, you go with Zilong to Wuling Commandery, Lingling Commandery, and Guiyang Commandery, and have a good talk with Cao Yin to see if he is willing to serve me;"

"If he is willing, that is naturally the best, and you can continue to let him serve as the Administrator of Wuling;"

"However, his military power must be confiscated, the troops given to Zilong, let Zilong arrange a deputy general, and divide 2,000 surrendered troops as commandery soldiers to temporarily sit in Wuling Commandery and suppress various disobedience, banditry, and barbarian chaos."

"Lingling Commandery and Guiyang Commandery will also be handled in this way;"

"First see if the Administrators of the two commanderies are willing to surrender to me, and then act according to the regulations;"

"In short, the Administrators under my rule will not hold military power in the future, except in special circumstances. Military and political affairs will be separated."

"Yes!"

Cheng Yu and Zhao Yun accepted the order immediately.

"Alright! Let's arrange it like this for now! If there are any problems, let the Secret Guard use golden eagles to send messages to me at any time, and I will handle and reply in a timely manner!"

"Everyone, act according to the orders quickly!"

Su Xuan waved his hand.

"Yes!"

The civil and military officials accepted the order and left.

Su Xuan first came to the back garden of the inner residence and found Xun Cai and the others.

At this time, Xun Cai and Cai Yan were playing the zither;

Bian Yu'er and Diaochan were dancing;

Zou Qian and Zhang Ning were sitting on the side watching;

Rarely, Zhen Jiang was also here at this moment.

Seeing Su Xuan coming, everyone stopped one after another and stepped forward to salute Su Xuan.

"Greetings, Husband (General)!"

"We are our own people, no need for so many courtesies!"

Su Xuan waved his hand with a smile, nodded to Xun Cai, then looked at Diaochan: "How has Miss Diaochan been living here these days? Are you used to it? Are there any difficulties?"

Diaochan blushed slightly upon hearing this and saluted Su Xuan: "Thank you, General, for your concern. Everything is fine. The General and the Lady have taken care of everything very thoughtfully and considered everything for me!"

"Diaochan is deeply grateful and thanks the General and the Lady!"

Her words came from the heart; she truly felt that these days were the most comfortable and relaxed time she had ever spent in her life.

Xun Cai and the others were also extremely good to her, treating her like a good sister, without any intention of mistreating her.

The more this was the case, the more grateful Diaochan became to Su Xuan and Xun Cai and the others.

She felt that she would never be able to repay their kindness in her lifetime.

"Hmm!"

Su Xuan nodded with a smile: "I said no need for so many courtesies, as long as you feel everything is fine!"

Next, Su Xuan nodded to Zhang Ning again, and then said to his wives: "I will lead the army to Xinye in Nanyang to fight Yuan Shu later, so I specifically came back to say hello to you!"

"I have already arranged everything else!"

"As for the family, Cai'er, Jiang'er, you take care of things more, don't let any chaos happen, understand?"

"What?"

Xun Cai and the others were shocked upon hearing this and couldn't help but worry: "Husband, you are going on an expedition? Will it be very dangerous?"
