[Three Kingdoms] After crossing, I opened the sick and weak main road line

Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun are practicing the Buqu Nursing Academy in the mansion. There are nearly a thousand tenant farmers in the Yuan Mansion, and there are 200 people in the Buqu Nursing Academy. The number is far more than the usual Tinghou and Xianghou. Except for the clan named Liu who was granted the title of king, the number of food towns was not comparable to that of the Yuan Mansion.

There are many tenants and many fields, and the grain harvested every year is transported to Runan, which is even enough to feed the thousands of private soldiers in the Yuan Mansion in Runan.

The busy farming season is not over yet, Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun stay at the mansion to help with farm work in the morning and rehearse the trilogy in the afternoon. If there is no war, such days will continue until the summer harvest and summer planting are completed.

Cao Hong rode here alone, and they found nothing unusual after checking. Afterwards, the lord was the first to let him in. Why did he start crying not long after entering?

Their lord's body is weak, so don't that guy scare their lord knowingly, send the letter as soon as he delivers it, what's the matter with howling?

In the smoky living room, the tea cup in Yuan Huan's hand spilled a little, and some water stains fell on the sleeves, which were quickly absorbed by the cloth.

He felt that if he poured out all the water in the cup, there might not be as many tears as this person cried.

Cao Hong Cao Hong, whose name is true to his name, is really like a flood when he cries.

"My lord, there are not enough troops in Yanzhou, Dongjun is already in danger, you can save those innocent people." Cao Hong was still crying at the top of his voice, but fortunately, the only reason he had left was not to run away from home, and he didn't dare to rush over and hug Yuan Huan's thigh cried.

He actually didn't want to be so ashamed, but the matter was urgent, and he couldn't wait too long for his cousin, so he could only risk his face and roll on the ground.

There were only Yuan Huan and Cao Hong in the guest room, and the servants and maids were all outside. They hurried in after hearing the movement, and they stood at the door not daring to move when they saw the scene inside.

This man's tendon and flesh looked powerful, and they might not be able to pull it up if they wanted to.

Yuan Huan helplessly asked this guy to stop first, and he didn't say he wouldn't send troops, why was he crying so hard, those who didn't know thought he was being bullied here, "Zi Lian, get up and talk first."

Cao Hong wiped his tears, but the crying stopped, but he didn't have any intention to stand up, "Hong came here this time to shoulder the expectations of the people of Yanzhou. If he returns empty-handed, how can he be worthy of the people of Yanzhou, my lord..."

"Let me think about it." Yuan Huan sighed. Yanzhou must be rescued, but how to save him has to be thought about carefully. He has just arrived in Zhongshan, and he has not even figured out the situation in Zhongshan. It is impossible to send all the soldiers and horses. Go out and help Yanzhou resist the Black Mountain bandits.

Bai Rao, Yu Du, and Sui Gu have a combined total of more than [-] people. The superiority in numbers cannot be underestimated.

Cao Hong sniffed, his eyes turned red and he wanted to continue crying, but Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun who rushed over pressed him down on the ground before he got emotional.

Now he didn't need to pinch his thigh to brew his emotions, he felt like his arm was going to be broken.

Zhang Liao kicked the man at the crook of the leg, pinning him down deftly. Zhao Yun felt that it would be a waste of time for him to fight with him, so he stood up and guarded their lord's side vigilantly, "Waiting for Yun to come late!" , I hope the lord will forgive me."

"It's nothing, don't worry." Yuan Huan rubbed his forehead, asked Zhang Liao to let him go, and then ordered the servants outside to find Xun You and Xun Yu.

The black mountain bandit was in a hurry, and Cao Cao didn't have much time to wait. He probably thought of how to deal with it, but it would be safer to invite a think tank to discuss it together at this time. How much is accurate, you can refer to it when formulating countermeasures, but it cannot be completely relied on.

It has been six or seven years since the Yellow Turban Uprising, the main force of the rebel army has been suppressed, but the remnants of the rebels are still making troubles.

After the death of Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao, the remnants of the Yellow Turban Party were scattered all over the world, and forces from various parties such as Heishan, Baibo, and Huanglong sprung up like mushrooms. There were 7000 or 4 people with small forces, and [-] or [-] people with large forces. The most powerful black bandit, even known as having millions of followers, is like another Yellow Turban Army.

It is called a million, so there is naturally a lot of water in it, but even if it is cut in half, and the old, weak, women and children are removed, there must be 10,000+ young and middle-aged people who can fight.

Black Mountain is a part of the southern end of Taihang Mountain. The rebel army erected a banner here, so it is called the Black Mountain Bandit. Their leader is Zhang Yan from Changshan. They first made their fortune in the northern part of Hebei. Dang, near Hanoi.

There are many peaks in the Taihang Mountains, and the roads leading from Jizhou to Bingzhou and other places are mostly distributed among the mountains. The location of the Eight Paths of Taihang is extremely important. The black bandits use the terrain to communicate with the bandits distributed in the valley. Almost all the bandits and bandits belonged to Zhang Yan, and it was extremely difficult to eliminate them.

The imperial court has no ability to wipe out.

Zhang Yan is a smart man. After the power in his hands developed, he quickly sent people to the court to ask for surrender. He successfully transformed from a bandit leader who gathered people to make troubles to a Pingnan Zhonglang general who was in charge of military and political power in mountainous areas. The right to shepherd.

Bai Rao, Yu Du, and Sui Gu are all under Zhang Yan's subordinates. Gongsun Zan is stationed at Panshi. Seeing that he is about to start a war with Yuan Shao, Zhang Yan leads his troops to support Gongsun Zan. Bai Rao, Yu Du, Sui Gu and others are making trouble in Yanzhou at this time. , I am afraid that there is also the intention to stir up the water even more.

Xun Yu and Xun You came over quickly. After entering, the uncle and nephew unanimously looked at Cao Hong who was standing next to him wiping tears, and then saluted side by side, "I have seen the Lord."

"Don't be too polite, sit down." Yuan Huan motioned the two of them to sit down, briefly explained the current situation, and asked straight to the point, "The black mountain bandits made trouble in Yanzhou, and Liu Dai, the shepherd of Yanzhou, was killed. If you want to rescue Yanzhou, what should you do? "

Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai was killed, and the court has no time to support. The best way is to immediately support a person with enough prestige to take over the banner. The civil servants and generals around Zhou Mu have their own strengths, and whoever pushes them may be dissatisfied Voice, it is safest to directly succeed Liu Dai's son as the new Yanzhou pastor.

The princes from all walks of life have already placed their own importance on supporting soldiers, and no one cares about the government's decrees. The old master passed away, so naturally he had to choose his son to stand.

The problem is that Liu Dai has no sons, only one younger brother, Liu Yao, who lives in seclusion in Huaipu to avoid the war, and obviously he is not a person who can help in emergencies.

You can't count on your son and brother, so you can only find help from other places.

Liu Dai had a good relationship with Yuan Shao before his death, and now Yuan Shao wants to defend against Gongsun Zan, on the one hand, he has no troops to support Yanzhou;

Yuan Shu had enough soldiers and horses to help, but Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao were at odds with each other, and it was too late for him to be happy to see Yuan Shao's territory suffer, so there was absolutely no possibility of sending troops to support.

The position of state pastor was originally a piece of fat, holding the military and political power of a state. In the troubled times, he was the emperor himself appointed by the emperor himself. He was a local snake that even a strong dragon could not suppress. The job of animal husbandry is not fat, but a hot potato. If not, Cao Cao would not have to rush to support with his three or five thousand soldiers.

Even Cao Cao sent troops only because his family members were all in Chenliu's hometown, and he was afraid that the Black Mountain bandits would hurt his family members, so he was willing to send troops.

Any sober person who sees this situation will not feel that it is a good thing to take the initiative to get involved.

Xun Yu and Xun You looked at each other, folded their sleeves and sat upright, meditated for a moment and said softly, "We are outnumbered, so don't act arbitrarily."

Cao Hong thought he was going to refuse, and opened his mouth to speak, but was blocked by Zhang Liao, who quickly took the snacks on the table. He was a bit polite in public, and he couldn't do such a frustrating thing like crying in front of the lord. Less tuned than him?

"Wen Yuan, don't be rude." Yuan Huan shook his head disapprovingly at Zhang Liao, smiled apologetically at Cao Hong who was almost choking, and then looked at Xun Yu, "Now the enemy is outnumbered, the enemy is strong and we are weak, Wen Ruo What's the best way?"

Xun Yu raised his head calmly, "Although there are many bandits in the Black Mountain, they are similar to the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The old, weak, women and children are among them, and the young and strong are not productive. All the food, grass, and salaries in the army are maintained by looting. Although they are powerful, they cannot long."

The black mountain bandit's army of more than [-] at every turn sounds terrifying, but its combat effectiveness is not strong. It can't compare with the trained soldiers. At best, they are only farmers with farm tools.

Most of the people in the rebellious army went astray. If they could be given a stable place to plow and farm, no one would want to hang their heads on their waistbands everywhere.

Yanzhou has Jizhou in the north, Qingzhou in the east, Xuzhou and Yuzhou in the south, and Sili in the west.

The people in Zhongshan County are well-off, but many people in Yanzhou are fleeing. It is better to use the plan and find a way to subdue the black bandits who will commit crimes in the future, and let them settle down in Yanzhou to farm, so as to restore the vitality of Yanzhou.

Xun Yu's idea is very good. If it can be realized, it can be said to be defeated without a fight, but it is not so easy to turn the idea into reality.

Xun You shook his head after listening to their uncle's advice, and said in a deep voice, "If the leader of the bandit is not eliminated, how difficult it is to turn the rebellious army into a good citizen."

Yuan Huan pondered for a moment, then raised the corners of his lips and smiled slightly, "It's not impossible."

What Xun Yu said was right. Most people took the risk of rebellion only when they had no other way out. If they could live a normal life of men farming and women weaving, no one would take the risk of killing the nine tribes to rebel.

If it was just a soft heart, the leader of the rebel army might think that they are soft-tempered, and there is a high probability that they will push their noses in the face. You can't just rely on your mouth to recruit them, you have to subdue them first.

Cao Cao is surrounded by fierce generals, he will not send too many people here, and one Lu Bu is enough to cover ten thousand people. As long as there is enough food and grass to support him, with Boss Cao's mind and strategy, he can drag the Black Bandit to death in Yanzhou.

Yuan Huan thought about it all, and thought of another helper.

Yuan Shao put all his energy into guarding against Gongsun Zan, temporarily truce with Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu was about to attack Liu Biao in Jingzhou when he was free. At this time, Sun Jian, Marquis of Wucheng, was killed by an arrow.

Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian can be said to be the most dedicated supporter of the Han Dynasty among the [-] princes. The soldiers under his command fought bravely and skillfully.

"Zilong, take General Zilian down to rest." Yuan Huan turned his head and ordered, seeing that Cao Hong was so pitiful, he comforted them before they left, "Don't worry, Zilian, I won't stand by and watch the difficulties in Yanzhou , we can leave for Dongjun tomorrow morning."

Cao Hong:! ! !

"Thank you sir!!!"

"My lord, Zilong and I will send General Zilian to rest." Zhang Liao was afraid that this guy would start crying again if he disagreed, so he quickly winked at Zhao Yun, and the two of them pushed him out, one on the left and the other on the right.

An imposing eight-foot man, how can he shed tears as soon as he says it, his little son can't cry like that.

After a period of chaos, Yuan Huan, Xun Yu and Xun You were the only ones left in the guest room. When the outsiders left, they could speak without so much scruples.

Yuan Huan put his hands on his lap, and looked gently at his two think tanks, "Wu Chenghou, what do Wen Ruo and Gong Da think?"

"Wu Chenghou is a hero of the time." Although Xun Yu did not see the Guanzhong Alliance with his own eyes, he only saw the troops marching and fighting on all sides. Among the eighteen princes, only Sun Wentai and Cao Mengde could praise him, "Since Dong Zhuo said Chaos, the Quartet advocated righteousness, and there was no single one. However, the eighteen princes all relied on their crowds, and because of this, they proclaimed themselves colonists. , and later restored the garden mausoleum in the old capital of Luoyang, and only worshiped temples and shrines. This is his loyalty and dedication, how can others be the same as Japanese?"

Xun You nodded, agreeing with what their uncle saw, "Dong Zhuo stole the country, and the whole world raised righteous soldiers to fight against it, but Wu Chenghou went all out, which can be called righteous."

"If you ask Marquis Wu Cheng to lead his troops to assist Yanzhou in defending against the Black Mountain bandits, will Marquis Wu Cheng agree?" Yuan Huan's tone remained calm, but his eyes stayed on Xun Yu for a while longer.

Xun Wenruo is an excellent helper, and his character and ability are all excellent, but there is only one thing that makes him worry all the time. He is afraid that this person will take the Han Dynasty too seriously, and he will follow the old path in history books in the future.

Cao Cao wanted to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty when he was asking for Dong in the Kwantung League, and he and Xun Yu could not be more compatible. The two of them wanted to help the world, put down the rebellion, and return the people to a bright future.

He is different from Cao Cao. From the very beginning, he never wanted to hand over the results of his hard work to others.

If Xun Yu's ambition is to make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there will be no more disasters in the world, he is sure that this person will go to hell with him. If the protection of the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty accounts for more, then it will be troublesome in the future. up.

To be honest, he couldn't be more satisfied with both Xun's uncle and nephew, and Xun You was better, and he was afraid that Xun Yu would fall out with him because of this matter.

It was hard to find such a good internal affairs expert, and nothing could make things develop to that point.

"With the loyalty of Marquis Wu Cheng, there are nine out of ten that he is willing to send troops. If the lord is willing to provide food and grass, I can assure you that Marquis Wu Cheng will never refuse." Xun Yu noticed the gaze falling on him, raised his head and blinked, a little puzzled , "My lord?"

Yuan Huan smiled, "It's nothing, I'm just a little surprised to hear that Wen Ruo has a high opinion of Wu Chenghou."

Xun Yu didn't doubt that he was there, and replied with a little helplessness, "Wu Chenghou fought bravely, but the intrigue within the Kanto Alliance forced him to give up halfway. No matter how brave he is, it will be in vain. How can the lord strategize and win thousands of miles without leaving home?" Then get rid of Dong Zhuo, and restore peace to the people in Guanzhong."

He just praised Wu Chenghou a few words, could it be that it tastes good like this?

Xun Yu smiled even more, thinking that he is not very good at boasting, the lord is stable and decent in front of outsiders, but he did not expect to have a lot of petty temper in private, no wonder every time he talked with Gongda, he was always left and right in the end It turned out that he had to find out by himself.

But he must find out by himself.

The [-] princes of the Kwantung Alliance failed to challenge Dong Zhuo, and the lord made Dong Zhuo's head fall without anyone noticing. Presumably Wu Chenghou also admired the lord very much.

Yuan Shu separatized Huainan, and often withheld Wu Chenghou's soldiers and horses in terms of food and salaries. As long as the lord proposed that the food and grass were sufficient, the generals could concentrate on fighting outside without any worries. No general could refuse this condition.

The lord is already a rare talent in the world, don't bother with such small things.

"In that case, please trouble Wen Ruo to take the pen and send the letter to Wu Chenghou." Yuan Huan was a little puzzled by his indulgent gaze, waved his sleeves and stood up, "By the way, pass the letter to Feng Xian, Let him go home tonight."

The Jiangdong Tigers will bring a group of cubs with them when they come out of the mountain. No matter how hard it is, the children can't be miserable. Wu Chenghou should live well to shelter the cubs at home.

Having said that, how old is the little overlord Sun Ce now?
