Chutian was not at ease with Hou Jing's surrender. Although they surrendered the city, they once followed Hou Jing in Pengcheng State and Jiujiang County, burning, killing and looting, which aroused public resentment. If they did not kill, they would not show the anger of the people.

This time it was Guo Jia who took the initiative to surrender the city. From the beginning to the end, Chutian never promised to let go of the surrender. Therefore, the blame fell on Guo Jia, the staff member. Chutian still kept his promise.

With Guo Jia's words, there were hundreds of centurions under Hou Jing's command, and the heads of thousands of captains fell to the ground.

The rest of the surrendered troops were all sent to the mines to become coolies.

There are many disciples from good families in Huainan, so even if Hou Jing's disciples are not included, Chutian will not suffer much loss.

Chu Tian obtained Guo Jia and took him as his staff, training him together with Lu Su. Guo Jia and Lu Su were similar in age.

[Characteristic 1]: Genius (SS level trait, high probability of seeing through the opponent's monarch's character, high probability of seeing through the opponent's strategy, reduced probability of troops being ambushed, attacked by fire, lost and other negative states)

[Feature 2]: Legacy plan (S-level feature, three months before the end of life, intelligence +2, can make surprise plans)

[Characteristic 3]: Jealous of talents (negative trait, prone to early death, prone to serious illness during long marches)

Guo Jia's ability is indeed very strong, and he can easily see through the character and strategy of the other monarch, but this "legacy" and "jealousy of talents" characteristics have a considerable impact.

This may be the true jealous genius in the legend, who can explode with 99% of intelligence before dying.

If possible, Chu Tian naturally does not want Guo Jia to die.

A normal Guo Jia is enough to serve as a strategist for a legion. There is no need to pursue an intelligence of 99.

After returning to Xuzhou, I have to find a way to get the miracle doctor Hua Tuo to treat Guo Jia. If it is not a terminal illness, Hua Tuo might be able to rejuvenate Guo Jia and eliminate the negative characteristics of Guo Jia's "jealousy of talents".

Chu Tian counted the military advisors under his command, including Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Guo Jia, Lu Su, and in the future, Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang, and Cao GUI. Basically, a main army can be equipped with a top strategist.

For other forces, it is simply a luxury.

Which force can have such a large group of king-level and emperor-level counselors?

Chutian's counselor lineup is equivalent to Cao Wei's counselor lineup at his peak.

"This is Guo Fengxiao."

"Lu Zijing."

Two counselors, Guo Jia and Lu Su, served Chutian and became the second generation of counselors. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were obviously older. As for Zhuge Liang, they were the third generation of counselors.

"Fengxiao, it's good that you are still alive."

Chen Qingzhi and Guo Jia once served as colleagues under the command of the governor of Jiujiang. At this time, Chen Qingzhi and Guo Jia successively defected to Chutian, became Chutian's subordinates, and became colleagues again.

Guo Jia's expression was a little gloomy: "I was too negligent, which led to the old master being killed by Hou Jing."

"The old owner trusted Hou Jing too much and thought that if he saved Hou Jing, Hou Jing would be loyal to him."

When Chen Qingzhi saw Guo Jia, he was extremely sad.

Chu Tian noticed that the friendship between Chen Qingzhi and Guo Jia was surprisingly good. Heroes from different dynasties seemed to have new circles in "Lords".

Guo Jia should know a group of counselors from Yingchuan County. It would be great if Guo Jia's relationship with the Xun family could be used to recruit Xun You and Xun Yu in the future.

The Xuzhou Army entered Shouchun, opened warehouses to provide disaster relief and eliminate floods.

Chu Tian didn't relax yet.

Guo Jia saw Chu Tian's thoughts and asked: "Is it possible that my lord is not satisfied with Shouchun and Hefei?"

"Feng Xiao knows me. When you get to Huaihe River and look at the river, I will attack Lujiang River and sweep across Huainan."

Chu Tian made no secret of his ambition in front of Guo Jia.

For Guo Jia, an ambitious lord is more worthy of loyalty.

"Wan County and Shu County in Lujiang County are the most important, but the guards of Lujiang County are Huan Wen and Zu Ti. They are stationed in Shu County and are supported by the people, so it may be difficult to capture it. Hou Jing attacked Lujiang not long ago and was defeated by Huan Wen. Lord Chu

People in De Shouchun and Hefei are unstable. If the attack on Lujiang fails, we are afraid of a repeat."

Guo Jia lived in Shouchun for a period of time and followed Hou Jing to attack Lujiang. He witnessed Hou Jing being defeated by Huan Wen. He knew the situation in Lujiang County quite well and persuaded Chu Tian to give up the attack on Lujiang County.

The reason is also very simple. Shucheng is to Tongque, the prefect of Lujiang, what Xiacheng is to Chutian.

The people's sentiment in Shu City is higher than 90. Facing the attack of the Xuzhou Army, they will definitely swear to defend to the death and rush to the city to defend. Even if Chutian spends several months, he may not be able to capture Shu County.

"Even if we can't capture Shu County, my army can still plunder the population of Lujiang County and enrich Hefei and Shouchun."

Chutian had no intention of letting Tongque's Lujiang County go. Even if he snatched tens of thousands of households and moved them to Hefei, he would still make a profit.

"My lord, Chen Yuanlong, the governor of Guangling, recommended a person who he thinks can serve as the governor of Jiujiang."
