After Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, and Zhang Chao calmed down a bit, Lu Bu smiled slightly, and then continued: "The content on this paper is written by Yuan Chengzhi, the future son-in-law of Ben Wenhou, when Ben Wenhou sent troops in the past, the former Bohai County Taishou, and now Youzhou Mu, and the future son-in-law of Ben Wenhou. You also saw what was written on the paper, everything was as Cheng Zhi expected, Dong'a, Fan County, and Juancheng did not return to Shun. Therefore, Ben Wenhou's next action will naturally follow what Cheng Zhi said, after a few battles with Cao Cao, he led his troops to Xuzhou. I don't know, what do you think?"

At this moment, everyone present still had any opinions, Yuan Chang expected that the three cities of Dong'e would be defended, obviously, Yuan Chang arranged like this, and he had his own purpose. Even Lu Bu listens to others, where will they still have opinions as subordinates?

Of course, Chen Gong and Zhang Miao were naturally extremely curious about Yuan Chang, who had never met before. Chen Gong was curious about Yuan Chang's prediction, the war had not yet happened, and he could predict the situation in Yanzhou thousands of miles away, and it was not an exaggeration to call Yuan Chang a ghost;

Chen Gong thought for a while and asked, "Wen Hou, since the three cities of Dong'e are destined to not be taken, do you still want to continue to send troops?"

"Why don't you send troops?" Lu Bu responded lightly, "Sending troops to capture the three cities of Dong'e, first, you can train soldiers, and after the tempering of war, these soldiers can become the elite of the army; If you don't capture the three cities of Dong'e, if Cao Cao gets Xuzhou first, wouldn't it be bad for Chengzhi's arrangement. ”

And Chen Gong, who calmed down at the moment, finally discovered the difference in Lu Bu. The head of speech analysis is the Tao, which is clearly organized, such Lu Bu. Or is it the well-developed and simple-minded Lu Bu who is rumored in the world? It seems that everyone in the world has misunderstood Lu Bu. Perhaps only Yuan Chang, who was far away in Youzhou, knew about Lu Bu, so Lu Bu would obey his words.

If Lu Bu knew Chen Gong's thoughts, he would definitely disdain to say "phew". If it weren't for the sake of his daughter's happiness, Lu Bu would not be too lazy to bird Yuan Chang.

At the same time, Juancheng, which was more than 130 miles east of Puyang, naturally received an order from Zhang Miao to return to obedience. However, guarding Juancheng were Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, two diehard elements of Cao Cao, and it was naturally impossible for them to submit to Lu Bu. Therefore, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu also held an emergency meeting.

After Cheng Yu and Xun Yu met, Cheng Yu said directly: "Wen Ruo." Today, the spies reported that Lu Bu ordered Chen Gong to take Dong'e, Fanxian to take Fanxian, Zhang Miao's brother Zhang Chao, the former Yanzhou engaged in Zhonglang Xu Yan, and Wang Kai to take Juancheng, what can they do about it?"

Xun Yu thought for a moment, and then said, "The lord entrusts Yanzhou to me. We waited but failed to defend Yanzhou for the lord, and now only Juancheng remains. The three cities of Dong'e and Fan County have not yet been lost. Lü Buxan will capture the three cities, and now only if the three cities work together and hold on together, can they wait for the lord to come to help. I led my troops to defend Juancheng, and Fan County ordered Jin Yun to be loyal and righteous, and he would definitely not be a thief. But. Jin Yun's family members are all in Puyang, if Lu Bu takes his family as a hostage, I am afraid that Fan County will be difficult to keep; Dong Aling Zao Yuan is quite talented, and he is very popular with the people. If you stick to yourself, there's no problem. However, now that most of the counties in Yanzhou have been subordinated to Lu Bu, and the morale is low, Zhongde, you have a prestige among the officials, and now you can only persuade the officials of the three counties to keep the last foundation for the lord. ”

"Since Wen Ruo said so, how can I refuse!" Cheng Yu did not refuse, and responded to Xun Yu's arrangement. But why did Cheng Yu have such a deep prestige among the officials and people of Yanzhou? This matter has to talk about an incident that Cheng Yu did during the Yellow Turban Uprising.

During the Yellow Turban Uprising, Wang Du of Dong'e County responded and burned down the county's warehouse. The county ordered the city to flee, and the officials fled east to Quqiu Mountain with the old and the young. Cheng Yu, who was in his hometown at this time, ordered someone to spy on Wang Du and found that Wang Du and others could not hold on to the empty city, so they went out of the city five or six miles west of the city to stop at Tun. Cheng Yu then said to Xue Fang and others, a big household in the county: "Now Wang Du and others can't live in the city if they get it, and their potential can be predicted. He just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to plunder his property, and he did not have the will to attack and defend with strong armor. Why don't we go back to the city one after another to defend it? Moreover, if the city is high and thick, and there is a lot of grain, if we return to the city to find the county order and hold it together, the king will not be able to stay long, and then attack him, and the king will be broken. ”

Xue Fang and the others thought so, but the officials refused to obey, and Cheng Yu had to say helplessly: "Foolish people can't make big things." So he sent a few horsemen to hold high the banner on the east mountain, so that Xue Fang and others could see it, and then shouted: "The thieves have attacked!" and went down the mountain to take the city, and the officials and the people followed when they saw the situation, and finally found the county order and defended the city with a bucket. Later, Wang Du and others came to attack the city, but they couldn't break it, and they were about to retreat. At this time, Cheng Yu led the people to open the city gate to pursue, and Wang Du was defeated. Dong'e was thus complete, so Cheng Yu's prestige in Yanzhou, especially among the people of his hometown Dong'e, was quite deep.

Although Xun Yu analyzed that Fan County ordered Jin Yun to return to Lu Bu because his family was in the hands of Lu Bu, Cheng Yu wanted to protect Fan County.

Juancheng is located to the east of Puyang, while Fan County is located to the east of Juancheng and to the south and west of Dong'e. The three cities are connected to each other, watching and helping each other. If Fan County was also captured by Lu Bu, it would undoubtedly be a barrier between Juancheng and Dong'e City, making it impossible for Dong'e and Juancheng to help each other. Once Fan County is lost, it is likely to have a great impact on Dong'e and Juancheng, so the importance of Fan County is self-evident.

As for Fan Countyling's family in the hands of Lu Bu, it is not a matter for Cheng Yu to consider, for the ruthless Cheng Yu, completing the great cause is the first thing.

I have to say that Cheng Yu and Cao Cao are actually the same kind of people, unscrupulous in order to achieve their goals.

Cao Cao defected to his own Lao Tzu's sworn brother Lu Bohao, knowing that he was killing the wrong person, in order to avoid Lu Bohao from reporting the case, Cao Cao did not hesitate to kill Lu Bohao; later, Cao Cao was short of grain and grass, so he asked the grain official Wang Gao to "do Xiaohu", and finally borrowed Wang Yuan's head to stabilize the army's heart. Cheng Yu, on the other hand, is in charge of the law, which is very harsh. A little thing can get a headshot. Therefore, Cheng Yu and Cao Hong are the two most incompatible colleagues under Cao Cao. It's not because of business, but it's also in the past. Of course, in addition, the most ruthless point of Cheng Yu is undoubtedly the use of human flesh as food. This is absolutely fatal and indisagreeable.

Throughout the history of the world, eating human flesh without ammunition and food has not been a very common thing. Whether it is China or the Western world, this kind of thing happens. Therefore, Cheng Yu's use of human flesh as food and grass is actually the opinion of the benevolent and the wise, and there is no fixed statement.

It is said that Cheng Yu obeyed Xun Yu's arrangement and went to Shouyu Dong'a when he passed through Fan County. went to see Fan County Ling Jin Yun.

"Jin County order, now Yanzhou Lu Bu thieves have taken away, only Juancheng, Fan County, and Dong'e are left. Only when the three cities are united and stick to the city can they resist Lu Bu's offensive and wait for Cao Zhoumu's soldiers and horses to come to help. So. Now are you going to surrender to Lu Bu, or are you loyal to Cao Zhoumu?"

Jin Yun also said very simply: "Cheng County Order (Cheng Yu was appointed by Cao Cao as Shouzhang Ling)." Now that my brother, mother, wife and son have been arrested by Lu Bu, I am also very conflicted. As a subordinate, it is my duty to stick to the city, but. As a son, a brother, a husband, and a father, I cannot afford to ignore their lives. If Cheng County Commander encounters such a thing, what should he do?"

Since ancient times, the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety has always been a problem, and Jin Yun's family is in Puyang. In a deep crisis, Jin Yun was powerless to solve it, so he had to throw this problem to Cheng Yu. However, Cheng Yu is a ruthless person, Jin Yun asked Cheng Yu to answer, this is not death.

Cheng Yu's face showed no emotion, and he said solemnly: "Your younger brother, mother, wife and son were arrested by Lu Bu, which is unbearable for any filial son. However, now the world is in turmoil, the heroes are rising, there will be a life, the only people who can calm the turmoil in the world are Cao Gong, the winner is Chang, and the owner is dead, Chen Gong he betrayed Cao Gong (Chen Gong was the first to follow Cao Cao), welcomed Lu Bu into the city, the surrounding counties and counties responded, and it seems that there is something to do, but looking at it, Lu Bu is like a person! Lu Bu is rude and has few cronies, upright and rude, just the courage of a horseman, Chen Gong and others can not be a good monarch. Although there are many Lu Bubing, they are bound to fail, and Cao Gongzhi's wisdom is not out of the world, but it is given by God! You must stick to Fanxian, and I will guard Dong'a, and you will be able to make a contribution to Tiandan, I hope you will consider it carefully. ”

Although Cheng Yu said that Jin Yun should think about it, he also said that Jin Yun should stick to Fan County. Its purpose is self-evident, that is, to make Jin Yun give up his family and resist Lu Bu to the end.

Jin Yun seemed to be stunned for a moment, and finally cried and said: "Cheng County Ling rest assured, I don't dare to have two hearts." ”

Jin Yun can't do it if he doesn't cry, this is obviously to make him give up his family, and most people can't accept it. However, Jin Yun didn't listen to it, and since Cao Cao appointed Cheng Yu to take charge of Yanzhou's laws, the criminal law has been very strict. Jin Yun absolutely believes that there are people in Fan County who are arranged by Cheng Yu to spy on him, and if Jin Yun has two hearts, there will definitely be no good results. In desperation, Jin Yun could only express his loyalty like this.

After appeasing Jin Yun, Cheng Yu went to Dong'e. First of all, soldiers and horses were sent to defend Cangtingjin, so that the soldiers and horses of Chen Palace could not cross the river, so they had to make a detour to Dong'e to gain time. When he arrived in Dong'e, Dong'e County Ling Zao Yuan had already arranged for the soldiers and people to prepare for the defense of the city. Chen Gong also knew the truth of the facts, and when he attacked Dong'e, he didn't use all his strength, so he allowed Dong'e to defend.

Everything is developing according to expectations, but there is a little accident on Fanxian's side.

If Lu Bu is killed by that fake Lu Bu, he will naturally really want to take Yanzhou, and he will go to Xuzhou after he can't take it. Then, the capture of Juancheng, Fanxian, and Dong'e is naturally an all-out attack, and all the means that can be used are used, and Jin Yun's family is naturally the means that can be used. Therefore, if Fan County's family members are in hand, the fake Lu Bu will naturally not miss this opportunity. However, Lu Bu was not replaced, and the siege was just an illusion. Besides, with Lu Bu's character, he naturally disdains to threaten Jin Yun with Jin Yun's family as a hostage.

So, before attacking Fan County, Jin Yun's family was sent to Fan County. Then, the next thing made Lu Bu and Cheng Yu confused.

Cheng Yu asked Jin Yun to defend Fan County, so as to ensure that the three cities could watch and help each other, and let Jin Yun defend the city at the cost of his family's lives. However, Lu Bu didn't use Jin Yun's family members as hostages, and directly returned Jin Yun's family members to Jin Yun. Then, when Fan Ling attacked Fan County, Jin Yun symbolically resisted and let Fan Ling capture the city. When Lu Bu got the news, he was stunned for a while, but in the end, there was no other action, what should he do or what to do; as for Cheng Yu, he was dumbfounded, he didn't expect his lobbying to have the opposite effect, but in the case of strengthening the defense, he found that Lu Bu had no other moves, and thought that Lu Bu had some earth-shattering conspiracy in it. contacted Xun Yu, and sent three groups of soldiers to spread the news to the battlefield in Xuzhou.

……

Yuan Chang discussed with his subordinates for a long time, and solved the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the problem of the remaining clothes was actually not a problem.

The industrial revolution has not yet appeared, and it is naturally impossible to change the textile industry by means of science and technology. Therefore, linen is still the mainstream at the moment. Brocade was too expensive and scarce for ordinary people to wear, and clothes made of linen were found all over the streets, but the clothes made of linen were not only coarse, but also had poor protection against the cold. As for the furs, they are also expensive and scarce, and there are also textiles made of silk. In the same way, silk textiles are more abundant than brocade and fur, and they are more comfortable than linen clothes. It's just that clothes made of silk are also not popular. Most of the people raise silkworms and make clothes for sale, after all, this is also a lot of income. Therefore, in addition to the above raw materials for making textiles, there is only one cotton left that is the best choice.

Cotton had been introduced to the Central Plains as early as Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions, however, it was also not valued by the rulers. Therefore, cotton was mostly regarded as an ornamental object, and it was not until the Song Dynasty (the Song Dynasty was very awesome, which can be called the industrial revolution in China, but it was covered up by the background of foreign invasions) that it was popularized, and cotton cloth and related textiles gradually appeared in the field of vision of the people.

Therefore, Yuan Chang only needs to promote cotton and drum up the flower machine, and the problem of clothing will naturally be solved.

After the discussion, except for Yuan Chang and a few henchmen, the rest of the people dispersed, what should they do. (To be continued.) )
