Three Kingdoms: Salted Fish's son-in-law was overheard by Cao Cao

After taking some rice from several other soldiers, he threw the rice bag into the refugees.

When the refugees saw something being thrown, someone rushed over to pick it up. When they opened it, it turned out to be a small bag of rice. They grabbed it and stuffed it into their mouths without even thinking about it.

The refugees next to them saw that the bag contained rice, and immediately went to grab the bag. The rice bag was robbed among the refugees, and finally the rice inside was shared by everyone.

Those who didn't grab it kowtowed to the guards on the city wall, hoping that the guards would drop some more food, but the guards just stood quietly on the city wall and looked at the refugees without moving.

The soldiers stared at them all night, and seeing that the refugees did not show any symptoms of poisoning, they quickly reported it to Yan Xiang.

Yan Xiang couldn't figure out what the purpose of Cao Jun's operation was, so he reported the truth to Yuan Shu in the "Imperial Palace".

When arrows carrying rice grains shot into Shouchun the next day, even the people near the city wall picked up a lot of grain.

They rushed to tell each other excitedly, which led to more people gathering around the city wall, all of whom were hungry or even without food.

For three consecutive days, Cao Jun was shooting food and grass into Shouchun City, which not only puzzled Yan Xiang, but also puzzled the people.

"Didn't Cao's army come to attack Shouchun? Why would they go to the city to collect food?"

"Perhaps they know that our people have no food to eat. After all, they have occupied the grain fields outside our city."

"No matter what, Cao Cao still has a conscience, much better than that guy over there."

While the commoner was speaking, he gestured towards the inner city with his eyes, and of course he was referring to Yuan Shu.

The people around him immediately stopped the common people from committing death.

"Okay, don't talk about it, it's always a good thing to have food. Huh? Why did the gate of the inner city open?"

While several people were discussing, the inner city gate of Shouchun suddenly opened, and a group of soldiers walked out of the inner city with big bags.

Those soldiers arrested people when they saw them, and then confiscated the rice picked up by the people, and then kicked people away.

The common people who picked up the grain saw that Yuan Shu would collect even the rice that Cao Jun had shot in, and hurriedly fled in all directions.But I didn't expect that there were soldiers guarding the intersection all around.

People can pass by, but they have to leave the rice on their bodies. Some of the people saw that they could not escape, and immediately grabbed the rice and started eating. Although they couldn't take it back to their families, it was better to eat it by themselves than to give it to Yuan Shu.

But those soldiers have long regarded these grains as their own pockets, how could they allow these untouchables to eat them? The soldiers first beat and kicked those people, and then swung their knives to kill them when they saw no effect.

Soon all the food that Cao Jun shot into Shouchun was confiscated, and some rumors gradually began to spread among the people.

What: "Rather than waiting to die in the city, it is better to storm the gate."

"With a desperate fight, at least the family can survive."

"Anyway, it's death, and Yuan Shu can't be complacent."

That night, many people hugged each other to keep warm in the howling wind. They looked at the family members huddled beside them, and recalled the words they heard during the day in their minds.

At this time, in Cao Jun's camp, Jia Xu was being questioned by Cao Cao.

"It's not over, it's been three days, it's been three days!"

Jia Xu replied nonchalantly, "My lord, please allow me another two days."

"Two more days! Do you know how much food and grass you have destroyed our army in these three days? Two more days!"

[Ham, what's the hurry, people have to brew it up, whoever has the guts to say something against it will do so. 】

oh!Tai Ning also knew, could it be that this idea was discussed by the two of them?
It turns out that the two of you hang out all day long, aren't you fishing all the time?It actually did something right.

Thinking of the scene of the two discussing strategies together, Cao Cao felt a little comforted, and turned his head to cast a glance at Han Ze.

【Um?Why are you looking at me!Don't you want to trick me again, my damn charm. 】

"You don't want to have a part in this idea, do you?"

Han Ze stared: "How could I come up with such an unreliable method."

puff~
Jia Xu almost spit.

You little bastard cheated on me!To be so confident, I'm still here!

Jia Xu suddenly took a step forward, holding her head high and holding her chest high: "Master, this plan was indeed made by Taining. I only said that I wanted to get credit for it, so Taining gave it to me. But since it was my plan, the responsibility Naturally, I will bear it."

"Jia Xu! Betrayal, betraying friends for glory!"

Seeing Jia Xu betraying Han Ze without hesitation, he was furious.

[Jia Xu, you are a real dog!That being the case, don't blame me for taking the capital of fishing for the rest of your life. 】

Cao Cao was pleasantly surprised, Taining is going to make a move!

It's really a surprise, it seems that Shouchun will break the city just around the corner.

What strategy will Taining propose, to continue Jia Xu's investment?Or another trick.

The little flame in Cao Cao's heart was aroused by Han Ze's voice, and he even wanted to stand up, walk up to Han Ze and listen carefully to the strategy.

"Prime Minister, let's watch my operation tomorrow!" After speaking, he left the big tent angrily.

puff!
Cao Cao almost spit out a mouthful of blood, my expectation, you know...

Jia Xu also realized at this time that her actions hurt her feelings too much, so she hurriedly chased after Han Ze.

The next day, under the leadership of Han Ze, Cao Jun's siege equipment began to advance towards Shouchun City. Shouchun's defenders just watched quietly and did not rush to attack.

Because of Cao Jun's operation of shooting grain into the city in recent days, the defenders also have some expectations.I was even more excited when I saw the catapult and other equipment. Didn't the catapult bring in more food?

But to the surprise of the defenders, those catapults did not produce food, but a large number of bamboo slips.

Instead of harvesting grain and changing bamboo slips, is it to let the people in the city cook the grain and eat it?

Those bamboo slips were quickly seen by the people in the city, and what was written on them were the internal commandments of the Cao family.

The family rules of thrift and frugality were written on it, which surprised the people of Shouchun.

The Cao family was a large family of officials in the early days. Could it be that the children of the family are also so frugal, even more frugal than some wealthy households.

"Are all the children of the Cao family so frugal? They can even patch their clothes, won't they be laughed at by people from other big clans?"

"Haha, who dares to joke, isn't he afraid that the tiger and leopard cavalry of the Cao family will come to kill him?"

"That's right, people's wealth is great, so I can do whatever I want."

"It's just, what did Cao Jun call in this internal commandment? We are already so barren. Let's see what this internal commandment is useful for."

A person suddenly figured out something and said in a low voice.

"In my opinion, this is the promise Cao Jun gave us. He promised that after Cao Cao takes over Shouchun, he will not exploit our people like Yuan Shu did."

"Let me tell you, if that's the case, what if we help him enter the city."

"That's right, even if we die, our family can live a good life, at least they won't starve to death."

"Yes, I heard that Cao Cao even opened a granary in Xiapi to release grain."

"It's true!"

"Then it doesn't matter if you give it a try, anyway, you will die. If you fight, you may still have a chance to survive."

That night, the same voice sounded everywhere.
