New Story of Lv Bu
: Chapter 108: The Eve of the War
When you get busy, the days pass quickly, and when you wake up, the years are long gone. It was the end of July in the blink of an eye, and the weather on the plug was hot. Fortunately, there were cool breeze from time to time, which can offset a little bit of heat and bring a touch of psychological comfort to people. On this day, Lu Bu stole his life for half a day, took a good bath, and lay on the couch carefully and carefully over the past hundred days in his mind.
The repair of Wubaobao, the roads of the city, has been completed, the outer walls and gates of Jiuyuan City have been built, and the eight main streets in the city have been built, and the houses and other facilities are waiting to be built. Under Lu Bu's compulsory requirements, the sewer adopts a later-generation vertical inverted triangle design, and drainage facilities and garbage points have been set up throughout the city. This architectural design is also mandatory for use in the additional county towns and docks.
One hundred thousand soldiers and civilians completed such a large amount of work in just three months, mainly because of cement. There is a big difference between this kind of cement and later generations, but it is made by burning natural limestone into lime and mixing it with clay in a ratio of three to one. This technology has matured as early as two years ago, but it is useless. In this era, buildings built with this kind of cement are already strong enough. The most important thing is to save manpower and time. These two things are the most lacking in Wuyuan County.
With cement as a big killer, the construction of water conservancy projects is also very fast, and it is nearing completion. According to Yan Zheng's estimation, production will increase by at least 60% next year. Two piers have been established on the north bank of the Dahe River, a military port and a commercial port. Hou Cheng had taken up his post a month ago. Customers only need to pay five-thousandths of the commercial tax to pass through Wuyuan County unimpeded. Hou Cheng estimated that the business tax in July will be at least 500,000 yuan, which is not a small amount for Wuyuan County, which earns no more than 70 million yuan a year.
The reserve system has begun to take shape. Disabled soldiers and soldiers are sent to counties and townships to be the captains of the county brigade and district team. The salary ranges from 600 shi to 200 shi, and part of the seizures can be obtained from the county every year. . This treatment greatly improved morale, and immediately became a promising career in the army. The people rushed to join the army, and Gao Shun immediately seized this opportunity and announced that the relatives of the dead and disabled soldiers would be hired first, and those with household registration in Wuyuan County would be given priority.
The district team was immediately full and had to expand the recruitment by three to five times. These people selected qualified to enter the county brigade after ten days of training, and the county brigade entered the frontier army after ten days of training. Now the Wuyuan Frontier Army has reached 15,000, of which 13,000 are dead and 2,000 are heavy soldiers, and they are still recruiting. The army began to implement a battalion-level organization, with 600 soldiers per battalion divided into three tuns, commanded by the military princes. There are three battalions in each army, plus two hundred personal soldiers of the main general, for a total of two thousand soldiers, commanded by the army Sima. What followed was naturally a series of promotions. Gao Shun and others were naturally Sima in the army or other Sima, and even Wei Xu became a military commander. This group of people was promoted from a small Dubliner to a military Sima who was more than Qianshi within a year, and naturally they were extremely happy and energetic.
The camp, the tiger and leopard cavalry, the white army, and the silver fox ghost army are all organized by a regular army, and the archer is also an army, and the infantry is also an army. The swordsman and the spearman are divided into half. It's a pity that it is not full. Because the Beiwei Army is the most elite force, it would rather lack than abuse, so only one thousand and two hundred people were selected. Lu Bu also set up a women's camp against the consensus. The nominal commander is Yan, but Cheng Lian's younger sister, Cheng Ruizhu, currently has only 500 people. There are more than 15,000 of these troops, and the entire population of Wuyuan County is only more than 30,000. Where do the people who join the army come from? Refugee! Within three months, Wuyuan County will accept this full 100,000 refugees! There are also a large number of names coming to Wuyuan County.
Refugees are farmers who have lost their land and cannot live. This starts with Emperor Gao. Emperor Gao and his comrades were born and mixed in the lower class. They have a great understanding of the sufferings of the people. There is a cow on 30 acres of land, and his wife and children are hot on the bed. This is the most ideal society in their minds. form. Therefore, in the pre-Han Dynasty, the Huanglao politics always pursued the light of levy and the people's rest. Emperor Wu's military expenditure was huge and the country's use increased day by day. The Emperor Wu had to fight against the tyrants and collect his assets for military use, but he never beat the people. The idea of the people. Although there are additional factions in the localities, there are not many servitudes and vigilantes, and it is not a problem for the people to get enough food and clothing.
But after Guangwu Zhongxing was different, he was born in Nanyang powerful group, and his biggest reliance was also the powerful group, as long as he compromised with the powerful group in exchange for their support for status. Mingdi was aware of this problem and vigorously attacked tyrants during his reign. After the Ming emperor, there was no doubt that the foreign relatives and the eunuchs alternated in power, in other words, the power alternated in power. Can Haoqiang beat himself and restrain land annexation? That is absolutely impossible.
Therefore, land mergers are becoming more and more serious, and the only way to increase the country’s use is to send more. The burden on the people is getting heavier and some people fled. The government's taxation is fixed, and the tax has to be added to those who have not escaped. This becomes a vicious circle. The refugees at this time are not as serious as seven years later, but they are already considerable. Wuyuan County is vast and unpopulated, and wasteland is rare. As long as there are people, there is no need to have food. Coupled with various preferential policies in the county, it has attracted a large number of refugees. What counties lack is population, which is naturally very welcome. As soon as you enter Wuyuan County, there will be multiple reception points, and someone will register for resettlement after a good meal.
A large number of refugees poured into Wuyuan County, and the government offices everywhere were very happy. This has eliminated instability for them! We must know that the refugees often looted big households and official warehouses, and they are swept away like locusts crossing the border wherever they go. He must have a smile on his face, give a few thick porridge, and send the uncles away quickly. When the autumn harvest was finished collecting taxes, the officials came back to their senses and dared to let Wuyuan County yin! So began to set up cards everywhere to restrict the refugees from leaving the country. At this time, Wuyuan County had accommodated a full 500,000 refugees. This action provided a solid human foundation for the rise of the Lu Bu military group.
However, the 500,000 refugees have also brought unprecedented pressure on Wuyuan County. This is an active volcano that erupts at any time! Once someone rises up, Wuyuan County will be beaten up immediately! For this reason, the senior officials of Wuyuan County have held many meetings to discuss how to settle the refugees. Lü Bu resisted all opinions and insisted on continuing to accept the refugees. "The people of this dynasty, as long as they have enough food and clothing, and live on, they will never rebel. And we are not settling them in vain, we can help them build houses, and we can provide livestock, seeds, farm tools and rations. , But these are to be repaid! Use food, labor or other means to repay!"
Jia Xu appreciated this very much, and he was the first to jump out to support Lu Bu. "Lü Shijun's vision is admirable. The most important thing is to eat and wear warmth, open up wasteland, and ensure that there is clothing and food next year, and it will be fine in the next year." Yan Zheng is a businessman's foundation, and his calculations are good. fine. "After the autumn harvest is over, it will be the slack in agriculture. You can organize young people to build bridges and pave roads, build water conservancy projects, and train people to build docks in the village?? With cement, it will be a lot faster?? Let them grab nothing. After two or three times, if they find that there is no oil or water, they will walk around to grab other counties. We invested the capital, but we also have to take some interest back. The landlord’s family also has no surplus."
Yan Zhong also made a speech: "Accepting food, we must establish a free store, and promote the management of the business by people who are careful. People who save it in good years and take it out in a disaster year cannot be made into government. The number of refugees is increasing, and the lack of free store is also the root cause. One." Everyone rushed to finalize the detailed rules for the policies of food-for-work and construction of charity warehouses. This meeting was called the "Jiuyuan City Refugee Meeting" by later historians, and it solved the problem of the migrants to a large extent.
At the beginning of August, the Wuyuan Frontier Army was finally full, and all villages had built docks and righteous warehouses. The county brigade and district teams also began their normal duties, and the message tree and other methods began to be widely used. The decision to build a strong wall and clear the wild has been thoroughly implemented, and everyone is full of confidence, and the Xianbei people will definitely make them look good again!
The only person who was unhappy was Hou Cheng. Looking at the pearl treasure in his hand, the gold jade rapidly dwindled, and he was constantly replacing it with food and various materials. He was extremely sad. He reminded Lu Bu more than once that the envoy is out of money, so you need to be more serious! Shijun, we really have no money! Seeing his desperate appearance, Lu Bu had an idea. "Hou Cheng, if you have a chance to **** Shan Yuting from Hanshan Tanshihuai, would you dare?" Hou Cheng's eyes immediately showed golden light, it was pure golden light! "Why don't you dare? Tan Shihuai's Shan Yuting, how many good things should there be!" "Then train your troops well, don't lose their lives if you grab them!" "I'll fix these monkeys right away Ass!" Hou Cheng went away in a stride. How can such an exciting and great goal not be fascinating?
Indeed, Lu Bu was not deceiving Hou Cheng, he knew exactly what the court was doing. Your Majesty has made up his mind to fight against Xianbei, and, like in history, he will expedition to the north in three routes. Po Xianbei Zhonglang general Tian Yan out of the clouds, Huongnu Zhonglang general Zang Min and Nan Danyu went out of Yanmen, and Wuwan school captain went out of Takaliu. Lu Bu went out of the fortress secretly as a rare soldier, and the court was not controlled by remote control. Zhang Huan and Zhang Ranming will come to Jiuyuan City to take care of his house. It is expected that Shangshutai's edict will arrive in the next few days.
At noon on the fourth day of August, Lu Bu received a message that Zhang Huan and Zhang Ranming would arrive in the evening. He was carrying the edict from Shangshutai. Cao Yong and Princess Adele came with him. This means that the war with Xianbei has officially started!
