After settled the people of Panyu, Yang Hu submitted a petition to the court to appoint a new governor of Jiaozhou and prefects of various counties. Now the Wei army has taken over the prefecture city of Jiaozhou, as well as several counties such as Nanhai, Cangwu, Yulin, and Wu army has fled far to the Jiaozhi County area, so Gaoliang, Hepu and Zhuya, south of Yushui, have also become empty cities, and the Wei army can complete the acceptance at any time.

Under ordinary circumstances, the appointment of the governor and the prefect need to come from the court. Of course, Yang Hu did not dare to act arbitrarily and put others in the way of saying something.

Although Cao Liang had absolute trust in Yang Hu, no matter how high the trust was, he could not let Yang Hu do whatever he wanted. If Yang Hu had his own troops and violated the laws of the court, he would not be able to guarantee that he would be given a copy by any censor. Then it would be really troublesome.

Therefore, Yang Hu has always been cautious in handling local officials. He never even proposed candidates for reference by the court. Instead, Yang Hu would actively connect with officials sent by the court and hand over all the affairs in his hands.

Yang Hu's main responsibility for this southern expedition was to pacify the two prefectures of Yangjiao. Every time he set up a zone, in order to maintain local order, Yang Hu would send people to temporarily supervise it. Once the official appointed by the court took office, the settlement would be made immediately.

Shi Ji and Tao Ji were struggling all the way and finally arrived at the Dragon Band of Jiaozhi County.

Fortunately, there were no pursuers from the Wei army along the way, otherwise it would be a big problem if they had the life to live in the Dragon Band.

Even so, the nearly three thousand miles of itinerary along the way was enough to exhaust them. The food and grass they carried were already consumed halfway through the journey. For the last few hundred miles, they could only rely on hunting and eating wild vegetables and fruits to satisfy their hunger.

Due to hunger and disease, when the Wu army evacuated from Panyu, there were about 50,000 or 60,000 troops. After arriving in Longbian, there were only less than 40,000 left. The non-combat reduction in personnel caused heavy losses to the Wu army.

Fortunately, Jiaozhi County is also a large county in Jiaozhou, with a population of more than 100,000. After arriving in Jiaozhi, Shi Ji and Tao Ji first discussed recruiting some people and filling the army's vacancy.

Although a lot of people were lost along the way, the armor and weapons were kept intact, so there should be no pressure to recruit the army again.

The main problem now is that although the Wei army did not chase after him, they will sooner or later. With the current strength of the Wu army, even if they recruit more troops, they may not be the opponent of the Wei army. Once the Wei army comes to the city again, what will they do? Will they continue to run?

Further south, there are Jiuzhen County and Rinan County, which is also the southernmost area under the jurisdiction of Wu State. Since Jiuzhen County and Rinan County are both in tropical rainforests, there are endless primitive jungles, rarely visited, but wild animals and poisonous snakes often appear.

Therefore, Jiuzhen County and Rinan County controlled by the Wu army are two relatively narrow areas, close to the seaside, and then go westward to the area controlled by the Wu Kingdom, which is an unknown and mysterious area.

Of course, those areas are not completely uninhabited. It is said that some primitive tribes live in, eating raw meat and drinking blood, and retaining the euphoric wind of eating people, which is really scary.

Therefore, Jiaozhi County has become their final destination. What we need to do next is to seriously consider the defense issues of Jiaozhi County.

Fortunately, there was a 100,000 mountain between Jiaozhi County and Hepu County. Without pursuing troops, the Wu army worked extremely hard to cross the 100,000 mountain. It took almost half a month to walk out of the mountain.

When they walked out of the mountains, the soldiers of the Wu army were ragged, pale and thin, and had no appearance of the army at all. They were like a team of beggars, in a ragged manner, and they were terrible.

If the Wu army could use the dangerous terrain of 100,000 mountains to block the Wei army, they would still have a chance to block them.

Shi Ji and Tao Ji quickly reached a consensus, dividing the original army and the newly recruited army into two parts, one of which entered the 100,000 mountains, set up Anzhai at the dangerous point of the 100,000 mountains, set up a checkpoint to block the Wei army.

Another group stayed in Jiaozhi County and defended the coastal areas to prevent the Wei army from raiding Jiaozhi from sea.

Jiaozhi County has become the last territory of the Wu Kingdom. If the Wu Kingdom's flag is not overturned, Shi Ji and Tao Ji must work together to defend Jiaozhi. There is no doubt about this.

Although Tao Ji and Shi Ji had a little difference and opinions on the issue of Panyu New City, it would inevitably cause some knots in their hearts. Coupled with some rumors from their subordinates, the Jingzhou Army and the Jiaozhou Army have always been in a disharmonious attitude during the entire retreat of the west. The two sides even added harsh words, accused and insulted each other, and eventually developed into a small-scale armed battle.

Although these incidents are rare and small, they affected the unity of the Jiaozhou Army and the Jingzhou Army, and they had to arouse the alertness of Tao Ji and Shi Ji.

Immediately, Tao Ji and Shi Ji immediately issued a joint statement, prohibiting factional confrontation among the Wu army. Whether it is Jiaozhou or Jingzhou soldiers, they are unified Wu soldiers, and there is no corresponding barriers or opposition between each other. Now it is time for national crisis, and everyone should work together to fight against foreign aggression. If there is a situation of mutual attack and mutual hostility in the future, they will be severely punished and not lent.

The release of this statement has to be restored to the morale of the Wu army. Otherwise, the confrontation will become more and more intense and the internal circulation will be powerful, and the Wu army will invisibly weaken its strength. Before the Wei army comes, the Wu army will be indisputable.

The appearance of Tao Ji and Shi Ji at the same time naturally shattered some rumors of their disagreement, calming down Wu Jun's emotions and fewer people causing trouble.

This incident really made Tao Ji and Shi Ji secretly shocked. In fact, although there was some unpleasantness between the two, there had never been a dispute or hostility. However, the subordinates over-interpreted their emotions, and even had such a bad confrontation incident.

This made Tao Ji and Shi Ji alert. As superiors, their words, actions and actions will always affect these people under their command, so they must set an example.

Unitement is now an overwhelming task. Only by gathering all the power can we have the capital to compete with the Wei army. They will never allow the emergence of involuntary action and will never allow the separation.
