At the end of October, the third year of Jian'an.

A month and a half has passed since Cao Ang defeated Gongsundu in Changli in mid-September and led his fine cavalry to attack Goguryeo.

It took Cao Ang a month to set foot on various cities in Goguryeo and cleanse the empty Goguryeo and Fuyu kingdoms.

Because King Bogu of Goguryeo, King Weiqoutai of Buyeo, and the main forces of Goguryeo and Buyeo were all captured by Cao's army along with Gongsun Du in Changli.

Therefore, Goguryeo and Buyeo were almost undefended.

Moreover, due to climate reasons, Liaodong in this era was not densely populated, and its cities were relatively sparse compared to those in the Central Plains.

This is especially true for Goguryeo and Fuyu, which are adjacent to Liaodong. The population cities are distributed in fixed places. Cao Ang used the Wuhuan cavalry as the vanguard. As soon as the army reached the nobles of Goguryeo and Fuyu, they surrendered one after another.

Cao Ang moved quickly and directly merged Goguryeo and Fuyu into three counties, named Gaoping County, Beiliao County and Nanliao County.

The naming of Beiliao County and South Liao County is relatively simple, whichever is located in the northeast and southeast of Liaodong.

From then on, these two counties can be called the Five Liaos together with Liaodong County, Liaoxi County and Zhongliao County.

After a few years, the descendants of the Goguryeo and Fuyu people in these two counties will naturally feel that they are of the same origin as the Han'er in Liaodong County, and they will be completely integrated into the circle of Youzhou and Liaodong.

As for Gaoping County, it means to pacify Goguryeo, and it is also a name full of Han style.

After the three new counties of Gaoping, Bei Liao and Nan Liao were established, it was naturally necessary to set up officials and garrison to consolidate the rule.

After all, Goguryeo's territory of Buyeo also had a lot of fertile land, plains and mountains, rich in products, and could pay a lot of taxes, money and grain every year.

First of all, the selection of the county magistrate is relatively important as it serves as a link between the previous and the next in a county.

Cao Ang selected a few obedient ones as county magistrates from the Goguryeo and Fuyu nobles who voluntarily surrendered.

After all, the new lands of Goguryeo and Buyeo still need local people to cooperate with the governance for a period of time to slowly integrate into the identity of Dahannai County and erase the past as an independent vassal state...

As for the position of county captain, it must be reliable. own people.

This is the handle of the knife and the barrel of the gun, which must be firmly in your own hands.

Cao Ang selected three people from the Youyan generals in western Liaoning under Yan Rou, including Xian Yufu, Liu Yu's old subordinate.

Xian Yufu was brave and resourceful. In the original history, after the Battle of Guandu, he defected to Cao Cao (bdcc) along with Yan Rou, and he rose to the rank of General Jianzhong, with the highest power of governor of the six counties of Youzhou.

Although many things have changed because of Cao Ang's existence, Xian Yufu has not yet made any achievements.

But since Cao Ang knew that this man was loyal and brave, he temporarily gave him the position of captain of Gaoping County, the head of the three counties.

In two years, when the three counties of Gaoping have stabilized, they will be put to good use again.

As for the position of the governor of the newly established three counties, he is the highest official of the three counties and the most important.

Not only did the Han people have to be appointed, but they also had to be talented enough and have some knowledge of the Liaodong and Goguryeo areas, so as not to be deceived by those county and city officials who came from Goguryeo aristocrats.

After thinking about it, Cao Ang decided to recruit talents locally.

Guan Ning, a famous scholar who had fled the war in the Central Plains and lived in seclusion in northeastern Liaoning, and Bing Yuan and Wang Lie, who had surrendered under Gongsun Du, were appointed as governors of the three counties.

Guan Ning was originally from Beihai County, Qingzhou, and was from the same hometown as Kong Rong.

After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the princes were separatist and fighting, and Qingxu was in turmoil. Guan Ning and his fellow villagers and clans crossed the sea to Liaodong to escape the war.

At that time, Gongsundu heard about Guan Ning's reputation and invited Guan Ning to serve as an official in Liaodong. However, Guan Ning refused and chose to hide in the mountains to study and live in seclusion.

At that time, most of the Qingzhou scholars who crossed the sea to escape the chaos in Liaodong lived in the southern part of Liaodong, near the sea. They thought that once the Central Plains was pacified, they could cross the sea and return to Qingzhou at any time.

But only Guan Ning lived in the northern part of Liaodong County, on the border with Goguryeo, to show everyone that he would not move easily.

It can be seen from Guan Ning's knowledge that the wars and separatist regimes among the Central Plains princes will continue for a long time.

In ten or eight years, there will be no results.

That's why Guan Ning decided to live in seclusion and take root in northeastern Liaoning and settled here.

In the original history, Guan Ning did not finally cross the sea and return home until more than thirty years later, when the three-part pattern of the world was settled.

From this point alone, it can be seen that Guan Ning is highly talented.

At the same time, in the troubled times, he would rather live in seclusion than serve as an official under Gongsun Du. It can be seen that he is a scholar who does not rub sand in his eyes and waits for the enlightened master.

Even the idiom"cutting off seats and cutting off meanings" in history comes from Guan Ning.

Because Guan Ning once had a good relationship with Hua Xin, a young man, and they studied and lived in seclusion together.

While planting vegetables in the vegetable garden, Guan Ning dug up a piece of gold and turned out a piece of gold, but ignored it and continued to plow the ground and plant vegetables with peace of mind.

As for the gold that he dug out, he seemed to regard it as rubble and ignored it.

Hua Xin on the side immediately picked up the gold and looked at it in his hands. It was not until he saw that Guan Ning was not interested in the gold that he threw the gold aside in shame.

Later, another time, Guan Ning and Hua Xin were studying in their house. A nobleman's carriage and horses happened to pass by outside, and everyone made a noise to watch.

Guan Ning didn't care at all. He still sat on the table and read, unmoved. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Hua Xin threw the book aside and ran out to watch.

After Hua Xin came back, Guan Ning despised reading because Hua Xin followed others' influence, so he thought that he and Hua Xin were not the same person, so he cut off the mat they were studying with with a knife, and they broke off all relations with Hua Xin.

Cao Ang reused this loyal man precisely because he knew that Guan Ning had great talent and integrity, and did not follow the crowd, nor was he greedy for fame and fortune.

In the original history, Guan Ning had rejected the conscriptions of Gongsun Du of Liaodong and Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi, but when Cao Ang conscripted him as the newly established governor of Gaoping County, he readily accepted it...

This also made Cao Ang feel quite unhappy. Somewhat flattering.

Obviously, Cao Ang regards Guan Ning as a famous scholar and a talented person, and he has no doubts about his employment.

In Guan Ning's view, Cao Ang was also the reincarnation of the Ming Dynasty who changed the troubled times and ended decades of chaos ahead of schedule!

After appointing the governors, prefects, prefects, and lieutenants of the newly established three counties, Cao Ang temporarily appointed Yan Rou as the governor.

It's just that he is not the governor of Youzhou, but the governor of Pingzhou.

Although Gongsun Du was once independent, he did one thing well.

He established Pingzhou himself.

Originally, Liaodong County, Lelang County, Xuantu County and other counties were all under the jurisdiction of Youzhou.

However, after Cao Ang captured Goguryeo and Fuyu and established three counties, the five counties of Liaodong, Liaoxi, Zhongliao, Xuantu, and Lelang that were separated from Gongsundu happened to be combined into eight counties.

It is indeed the land of a state.

After the arrangement by General Cao Ang, it means that the existence of Pingzhou has been officially recognized by the court and will truly become the fourteenth state of the Han Dynasty!

Yan Rou, the hero who assisted Cao Ang in defeating Gongsun Du and regaining Liaodong, was the first governor of Pingzhou...

With Yan Rou, Guan Ning, Xian Yufu and others stationed in Pingzhou, within a few years, the three counties of Gaoping would be Completely integrate into Pingzhou and become a Han... No, it will be the inherent territory of the Wei Dynasty... After doing this, Cao Ang took advantage of the heavy snow to block the road and led his elite cavalry from Liaodong to return to the DPRK.……
