Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong promised Guo Peng to promote talented people, filial and honest people and appointed them to their official positions.

They will enter Guo Peng's shogunate as representatives of Xuzhou scholars, enter this core group, and serve as a symbol of Xuzhou's complete reversal towards Guo Peng.

Then Guo Peng asked them what truly capable talents are in Xuzhou and hoped to get their recommendations. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong did not dare to neglect them. They took their true feelings as the starting point and recommended many people.

For example, Lu Dai, a native of Hailing, Guangling, Lu Dinggong, Chen Jiao, Chen Jibi, a native of Dongyang, Guangling, and Yan Yan Mancai, a native of Pengcheng.

There are ones that count as one, they are all figures who shine in the original time and space in the Sun Wu regime, and they are also from Xuzhou, who have made great contributions to the stability of the Sun Wu regime in Jiangdong.

The reason they went to Jiangdong was not to take refuge, or Sun Quan recruited him after Sun Ce died, but in essence it was to take refuge.

Avoid Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Liu Bei, and avoid the disaster that affected the entire Xuzhou area.

Sun Ce's regime was not recognized by the locals in Jiangdong, and it was difficult to recruit local scholars in Jiangdong. The lack of administrative bureaucrats was originally a huge flaw.

But it was also fortunate that Cao Cao was raging Xuzhou. Xuzhou was in chaos. Xuzhou scholars crossed the river to seek refuge in Jiangdong. They hit it off with Sun Ce, who lacked administrative officials, and were used by Sun Ce because of this.

Without Jiangdong people, I would use Xuzhou people. Who wouldn’t use it?

Using these people can also avoid being pinned by the locals in Jiangdong. Let me just give Jiangdong a major blood change!

Sun Ce thought ambitiously.

During the Sun Ce period, the civil and military officials of the Sun Wu regime were basically from Jiangbei, and the administrative bureaucrats were mainly from Xuzhou, and then Sun Ce died.

It was not until Sun Quan ascended the throne that locals from Jiangdong joined.

But now everything is different. Xuzhou has no major turmoil, and these people have never crossed the river. Guo Peng accepted Xuzhou with a smile, and they had no reason to cross the river. Of course, they walked north and threw themselves into Guo Peng's arms.

This group of Xuzhou elites decided to join Guo Peng's arms and join Guo Peng Group to seek benefits for Xuzhou.

Compared to Jiangnan in chaos, Jiangbei is of course safer, and they are more willing to surrender to the powerful Guo Peng instead of the precarious separatist regime of Jiangnan.

So before the official meeting began, the news that Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong were recommended by Guo Peng to join his Wei Gong shogunate to do his job for him spread.

After the fall of the Chen family, Er Zhang, who was famous and virtuous, became the leader in the eyes of the scholars in Xuzhou.

They took the initiative to surrender to Guo Peng and reached an agreement with Guo Peng. So naturally, other things are not the case.

The people of Xuzhou are very relieved.

A few days later, Guo Peng met Lu Dai, Chen Jiao, Yan Yan, and talked with them about some issues about Xuzhou and their respective views.

These children of the gentry who can be recommended have long been trained through their respective family education. They are very capable of positions like county magistrates. With a little experience, the county prefect is not impossible. Compared with the powerful and civil servants, the gap is too big.

Having said that, Guo Peng still recommended them without hesitation, and put them into the shogunate to do their own affairs, first set the title of an old official of the Guo family, and then talk about other things.

Since we want to make Xuzhou people feel at ease, we must accept Xuzhou people into their core of power, speak for the interests of Xuzhou, set an example, and make Xuzhou stable first and avoid regional shady.

Afterwards, Mi Zhu recommended one person to Guo Peng.

He is also from Donghai County, and is considered a fellow villager of Mi Zhu, named Lu Su and his courtesy name is Zijing.

When Guo Peng learned about this name, he was a little surprised and asked the civil servants to investigate whether the name was on the list, but found that it was actually there.

"Lu Zijing is also a scholar. He is tall, generous and brave, but his knowledge is also very good. He was in business in various places and heard of his name. The villagers praised him very much, but later he never heard of him. This time he saw his name and then remembered it."

Guo Peng was interested in this, so he sent someone to invite Lu Su to his residence to see him.

Lu Su was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he, who had a not very famous reputation, would be received by Guo Peng, and the one who recommended him was the Mi family, who had never been in contact with him.

Mi family is a family of merchants. Although the Lu family is not rich, it is also a scholar and it is impossible to date Mi family, so Lu Su was very surprised how Mi Zhu recommended him.

Guo Peng must meet Lu Su, a rare talent with strategic vision.

Maybe he does not have that strategic vision now, but as long as people with talent in this area are given space, they can grow up, and people without talent in this area cannot do it.

Guo Peng is not short of tactical talents, but strategic talents need to be as many as possible.

Lu Su is twenty-four years old this year. He is a young man. He is tall and strong, with a body full of tendons and flesh. He looks like a handsome man. He looks like a handsome talent, which is very different from the image of the honest, dull and easily deceived nerd in the traditional impression.

This is an all-round talent who can be both literary and military, and can do administrative and strategic planning, and is by no means a nerd.

"Duke Wei."

Lu Su walked forward carefully and bowed in front of Guo Peng. Guo Peng smiled and reached out to ask Lu Su to sit opposite him, and then poured him a drink.

"When Zi Zhong recommended Zi Jing to Gu, he praised Zi Jing fiercely, which made Gu very curious. He didn't know what kind of person Zi Jing was. Now he saw it, he was really extraordinary. What books did Zi Jing usually read and do?"

After hearing Guo Peng's question, Lu Su quickly said, "In fact, it's very simple. Reading some common books. What he likes most is to lead the villagers to practice martial arts and train battle formations to protect himself. For this reason, he is often scolded by the elders of the clan, saying that the common people are not doing their jobs and will sooner or later drag down the family."

Guo Peng smiled.

"In this chaotic era, the world is not stable. Leading the villagers to play martial arts and protect themselves is the best strategy. How can it be considered a drag on the family? On the contrary, those who have never thought that playing martial arts and protect themselves will eventually encounter disasters. Zijing has such a sense of being prepared for danger in times of peace and thought it was worthy of praise."

Guo Peng picked up the drink cup and drank it, and asked again: "Has the Lu family suffered a disaster in Xuzhou before? Are there any casualties?"

"Trust the blessing of Duke Wei, the army rushed to Xuzhou in time to stabilize the place and wipe out the bandits. The family members were not injured or killed, and they were preserved. This is the kindness of Duke Wei."

Lu Su knelt in front of Guo Peng and expressed his gratitude to him.

Guo Peng reached out and helped Lu Su up.

"This is what Gu should do. Tao Gongzu was arrogant and took the initiative to ascend the throne regardless of public opinion. This led to the chaos in Xuzhou today. Gu came here just to quell the rebellion for Xuzhou at the invitation of Chen. But now, Chen... Gu never expected such a thing to happen."

Lu Su's eyes rolled.

"The Chen family's tragedy was not the fault of Duke Wei. Who could have expected that such a thing would happen? It's just that now that the Chen family is destroyed, the political situation in Xuzhou is unstable, and I urgently need someone who can stabilize the situation to serve as the governor of Xuzhou. In this way, Xuzhou can be stable."

Guo Peng grinned.

Not to mention anything else, just being alert and having this vision, no wonder it can be a big shot in the future.

"Zi Jing is right. No problem is currently a problem. It's just that the candidate for the position of governor of Xuzhou really makes Gu feel helpless. Gu originally wanted to report to the court Yuan Long as governor of Xuzhou, but who would have thought that Yuan Long actually...

There are not many people in Xuzhou who are famous and have an official qualification. At this time, if you want to choose someone that everyone can recognize, you will be in a difficult situation. If you don’t decide this, how should you do the next thing?"

Guo Peng looked worried.

Lu Su immediately said: "This matter is not difficult. If we say that the right person for the governor of Xuzhou is right now, isn't there just one person?"

Guo Peng asked with a smile knowingly, "Does Zijing want to recommend himself to Gumao? Want to be the governor of Xuzhou?"

"It's not true. Su Nian is only twenty-four years old and has never been an official. How dare he be the governor of a state? What Su said is not someone else, but Duke Wei!"
