Three Kingdoms: Domination of the World

Chapter 263 Xu Shu recommends talents

In 201 AD, the autumn air of September gently enveloped the suburbs of Nanyang County like a layer of gauze.

Suo Chao stood there quietly, his posture as straight as a pine tree. His gaze passed over the mountains and rivers in front of him and looked far away towards Jiangdong.

In the distant direction of Nanjun, Yuwen Tai's army was in a tense standoff with Sun Ce's army, and the atmosphere was like a bowstring about to break.

Suo Chao frowned slightly, a complicated look flashed across his eyes, and his childhood memories involuntarily emerged in his mind. He sighed softly:

"Alas! Now that my adoptive father is gone, my adoptive mother can't say anything."

Suo Chao rode a piebald Ferghana horse, a sturdy and sturdy horse with a coat as colorful as the clouds in the sky. His hand rested casually on the reins, and the tassels on the reins swayed gently in the breeze.

He quietly watched the people bustling about on the streets of Nanyang County, some carrying loads, others hurrying along, each struggling to make a living. Suo Chao's deep eyes revealed a pensive expression, his mind swirling with a thousand thoughts.

In the chaotic late Han Dynasty, many heroes emerged, and a delicate pattern of three-way division of the world had formed. In the eyes of the other two factions, Xuzhou was clearly Suo Chao's territory.

Suo Chao's power continued to grow like a snowball, like the brightest star in the night sky, making both Cao Cao and Sun Ce feel deeply threatened.

The two major forces put aside their past grievances and formed an alliance, just like two hedgehogs clinging to each other to resist a common enemy, forming a situation where if one of them disappears, the other will be in danger.

Suo Chao now controls fourteen states. After his careful governance, the newly incorporated Yizhou and Yazhou have grown to a considerable size in terms of military strength and manpower.

Take Xuzhou Donghai County for example. The people's migration plan was a brilliant one and a huge success, injecting new vitality into the development of his power.

Suo Chao looked towards the north, his eyes gleaming with confidence, and muttered to himself:

"We are conquering the north, with the Seven Provinces as our base. Now we have taken over Yizhou, Liaozhou, Hanzhou, Youzhou, and Xuzhou. The unification of the world is just around the corner."

However, he also knew that crisis was always around the corner. The alliance between Cao Cao and Sun Ce seemed unexpected, but it was also reasonable.

On this stage of power, for the sake of supreme power, countless cruel dramas of brothers turning against each other and relatives tearing each other apart have been staged throughout history.

Not to mention the distant past, just like Yuan Shao and his brothers, Yuan Shu relied on his status as the legitimate son and always looked down on Yuan Shao, who was born as a bastard.

How could Yuan Shao swallow this insult? He had always harbored great ambitions, so he recruited talented individuals and quietly built up his power. Ever since he was adopted by his uncle, Yuan Cheng, he had embarked on the path to success.

The foundation of the Yuan family, with three officials from four generations, is like a towering mountain, not something that ordinary families can reach. After the two brothers of the Yuan family divided the family resources, they both became famous princes in the late Han Dynasty.

The brothers were at odds, and were successively destroyed by Cao Cao and Sun Ce. Suo Chao wondered if the two had united back then, facing the enemy with a united front, who would have ultimately prevailed?

Suo Chao gently patted the horse's neck, as if to comfort this psychic BMW, and whispered:

"Forget it! Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were sworn brothers in the past! If I don't fight for the world for myself, I have to fight for my children." He really didn't want to go to war with the Jiangdong army, but the situation was like a surging torrent, which seemed to sweep him away.

In this wonderful world, the size of the A spiritual world depends on the influence of the forces in the heavens and all realms, while the size of the D world is closely related to the territory actually controlled by this world.

For Suo Chao, the vast land of the Eastern Han Dynasty was a foundation that he had to firmly grasp. Furthermore, he had to continuously radiate his influence to the surrounding territories, bringing all the surrounding land power into his own hands.

Suo Chao dismounted with a graceful and elegant movement. With a wave of his hand, his wife and children appeared beside him.

He smiled at them, his eyes full of tenderness. Over the years, his other eight wives had given birth to three sons and five daughters, and the family lived happily ever after.

The three sons were strong and energetic, so Suo Chao named them Suo Zhu, Suo Zhan and Suo Zheng respectively.

The five daughters were as beautiful as five delicate flowers. Their names were Mingxi, Mingxiang, Minglian, Mingzhang and Mingjian.

Suo Chao looked at the children, his heart filled with joy, and he felt that he was truly blessed with many children.

At this time, the situation on the front lines of various states was tense and tense, as if a small spark could ignite a prairie fire. However, Suo Chao decided to visit Nanyang County incognito.

While practicing medicine and relieving the people's pain, Suo Chao quietly used his "know yourself and know your enemy" skills to check the loyalty of important civil and military officials.

Although his wives were wearing simple casual clothes, their stunning looks were like pearls in the dark that could not be concealed no matter what, and they still caused a huge sensation among the crowd.

Suo Chao shook his head helplessly and had to set off alone with his eldest son Suo Tian and second daughter Suo Mingyu.

"Daddy, I want to go too!" Suo Ning pouted, looking reluctant, and pulled Suo Chao's clothes and acted coquettishly.

Suo Chao squatted down, gently touched Suo Ning's head, and said softly:

"Ning'er, be obedient. Follow your mothers back to the Mi family first. Your second uncle misses you."

When Suo Ning heard that she could meet her second uncle Mi Fang, her eyes lit up. The unhappiness on her face immediately disappeared, and she ran happily towards the mothers.

"Hua'er, you go back to see your brother first. I'll be there another day." Suo Chao said to Mi Hua, his eyes full of love.

"Okay, husband." Mi Hua bowed slightly and said goodbye to Suo Chao.

After bidding farewell to his wife and children, Suo Chao took his son and daughter to Nanyang County and began their journey. In addition to practicing medicine, he also taught his two children martial arts and medical skills.

"Mingyu, you have practiced the Yuenu sword technique very well. It has reached the stage of minor success." Suo Chao looked at Suo Mingyu who was practicing sword, his eyes full of praise, and said with a smile.

"Haha, thank you for the compliment, Dad!" Suo Mingyu stopped the sword in his hand and ran to Suo Chao happily, his little face flushed and full of excitement.

"Tian'er, you still need to work on your 36 Tiangang Soul-Returning Needles. You're not even proficient in the first 8 yet." Suo Chao looked at Suo Tian, ​​frowned slightly, and said earnestly.

"Father, I will try my best." Suo Tian clenched his fists and said with a firm look in his eyes.

Suo Chao had been busy over the years, training day and night, and had already mastered the Heavenly Dragon Halberd Technique to the Great Perfection stage. However, his fighting spirit was like a stubborn rock, difficult to break through, and he remained at the Small Success stage.

He looked at the sky and sighed inwardly. His senior brother Lu Bu's fighting spirit had already been fulfilled. It seemed as if there were three difficult-to-cross small realms between him and him, like a chasm in the sky.

Suo Chao also looked forward to comprehending the third unparalleled skill, but this was easier said than done, and he hadn't made any progress, which made him feel a little depressed.

Suo Chao's presence in Nanyang County did not escape Xu Shu, who was in the military camp. Xu Shu was so busy with military affairs at the time that he was like an ant on the hot pot.

Nanjun was garrisoned by Sun Wu's army, a military sage! Sima Yi of Runan was also a commander of unparalleled wisdom. Xu Shu felt like a small boat in a storm, the pressure as heavy as a mountain.

"General Yuwen, Sun Wu of Nanjun, and Sima Yi of Runan. They are all commanders with unparalleled wisdom." Xu Shu frowned and said to Yuwen Tai worriedly.

"Yes. I feel under a lot of pressure. I wonder what solution the military advisor has?" Yuwen Tai's face was full of anxiety, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"I guess the Imperial Master has arrived in Nanyang County, but his whereabouts are erratic. We urgently need a great talent to take charge of Nanyang." Xu Shu stroked his beard with his hand, his eyes deep, as if he had already made up his mind.

When Yuwen Tai learned that Suo Chao had come to Nanyang County, he was stunned at first, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. However, when he thought of his own predicament, he suddenly felt relieved, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.

He knew that although Borshu was also a powerful general, it would be extremely difficult for the three of them to gain any benefits from these two old foxes.

"I wonder who will be the military advisor?" Yuwen Tai asked excitedly, his eyes full of anticipation.

"General, I have made a decision on this matter. This is a letter written to the national teacher. I hope you can send it to the military advisor as soon as possible." Xu Shu said, taking out two letters from his arms and handing them to Yuwen Tai.

Yuwen Tai did not dare to neglect it and immediately sent a messenger. The messenger followed Xu Shu's instructions and rushed all the way to find the imperial teacher Suo Chao.

Suo Chao took the letter and opened it. One was from Xu Shu, and the other was a letter of introduction to Zhuge Liang.

Suo Chao learned that Sima Yi's army was stationed in Runan County. He stroked his chin and muttered to himself:

"Now the offense and defense have changed. If these two enemies had met earlier, I wonder what kind of interesting things would have happened?"

Suo Chao knew that Kong Ming was proud and would not easily leave the mountain. He could not predict the outcome of this recommendation. However, his path of conquest would not stop, just like a surging river that eventually flows to the sea.
