The development of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Rebel Army exceeded everyone's expectations, including the instigator behind the scenes, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu, who designed to deal with them, on the second day of August in the first year of Jian'an, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army attacked Beihai for a long time, and suddenly turned its head to the west, and the allied soldiers of Qingzhou and Xuzhou not only did not take the opportunity to pursue and kill the Yellow Turban Army halfway, but squeezed out a small amount of military food and ordnance to provide the Yellow Turban Army to help the Yellow Turban Army advance westward.

On the eighth day of August in the first year of Jian'an, the Yellow Turban Army occupied Dong'e and stepped into the territory of Yanzhou, unlike the previous Yellow Turban Army, these Yellow Turban Army did not use the food of the Shi clan to maintain military supplies, but the Shi took the initiative to provide food and weapons to the Yellow Turban Army, playing the slogan of 'Qing Jun's side, punishing Dong Zhuo', and more local officials gave knighthoods to several Yellow Turban Army generals, and whitewashed their identities for them, and were named Qinwang Guanjun. The Yellow Turban Army also reciprocated, helping the Shi landlords along the way to suppress the people who refused to pay the land rent due to natural disasters, and looting the last bit of property of the common people for the Shi clan.

On August 11 of the first year of Jian'an, the Yellow Turban Army marched into Dongping under the welcome of the scholars, on the same day, the Jizhou Scholars also crossed the Yellow River and sent a large number of horses to the Yellow Turban Army, the Yellow Turban Army advanced more quickly, the Jizhou scholars opened the city to meet each other, and prepared materials to help the Yellow Turban Army crusade against Dong Zhuo, and the people of Jizhou were in a panic, there was no food at home, and they could only fill their hunger with bark, grass roots, Guanyin soil and other things, and there were more people who ate human flesh to live. A small number of people joined the Yellow Turban Army or joined the Shi private army, which greatly increased the strength of the Yellow Turban Army and the Shi private army, but most of the people fled west, wanting to flee to the rule of Dong Zhuojun, who valued the people in legend......

On the night of August 15 of the first year of Jian'an, Dong Zhuojun held an emergency meeting, Kang Peng took the bamboo slips that tired more than a dozen good horses in exchange for his hands trembled, he used to promote the fight against local tyrants to divide the land and seize the land when he expected that there would be such a day after all, in this era of extremely low food production, the land is the lifeblood of the scholars, and they cut on their lifeline, they did not resist themselves It is strange, but I didn't expect it to be so quickly catalyzed by natural and man-made disasters. I don't even have time to accumulate strength for myself!

Originally, Kang Peng's strategy was to imprison the princes of the Eighteenth Route in Luoyang, so that the opposition forces in various places would fall into a situation where the dragons were leaderless, and he would implement Tuntian in the central part of Luoyang and Yong, and the two prefectures, and after accumulating enough strength, he could settle the north in a battle, and then map the south. But now that Luoyang has only implemented Tuntian for two months, and Yong and the two states have not even started Tuntian, the scholars have united against themselves, so that their arrangements have been disrupted. And the 100,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, 50,000 Black Cavalry and 100,000 Flying Bear Army in their hands are more than enough to protect themselves, but the unification of China is far from enough, even the unification of the north is a big problem, and there is the most important thing - food! During the Three Kingdoms era, the northern population was large, accounting for two-thirds of the entire Chinese population, and in recent years, natural disasters have been struck, and there is basically no food to be taken in various places, even if they unify the north, what can they feed so many people?

Li Ru's injuries have not yet healed, Dong Zhuojun is now in charge of internal affairs is Chen Gong, Chen Gong said with difficulty: "The number of refugees under Bishui Pass has reached 200,000, and there are more than 100,000 refugees before Tiger Prison Pass, this is still the number of two days ago, the number of refugees is increasing every day, and now it is definitely more than that." Although the Taishi once ordered the refugees to enter the customs, the number was too much, and General Xu Rong, General Fan Chou, and General Zhang Ji were also panicked and did not dare to open and close the door without permission, so they quickly came to ask the Taishi for instructions......

"Let the refugees in!" Kang Peng didn't think about it, and blurted out: "Do you want to watch them starve to death or die at the hands of the rebellious army?" ”

Chen Gong silently bowed deeply to Kang Peng, "The Taishi loves the people like a son, and Chen Gong thanked the Taishi for the refugees." Chen Gong added, "Chen Gong is in this life and this life, and he does not carry the Taishi." ”

Kang Peng sighed, knowing that the Shi clan treated the people like this, and they were also forced by themselves to protect themselves, it can be said that the northern refugees suffered so much, a small part of them were caused by themselves, and they were deserved.

Although Li Ru's injuries have not healed, but the stakes are very high, he still insisted on coming to the meeting, "Father-in-law, put this batch, the next batch must not be allowed to enter the customs again, although our army has a bumper harvest this year, in addition to the food needs of the people in Luoyang, Yong, and the two prefectures, as well as the basic supply of food in the army's peacetime, our remaining grain can only ensure that 500,000 people can survive next spring at most." Li Ru said that there was another cough, "What's more, the thief army is about to invade, and we have to face the thief army, and the food consumption during the war is much more than usual." Li Ru now regrets it very much, if only he could dissuade his father-in-law from bullying the Shi clan in the past, he would not have made the situation like this.

Kang Peng didn't say a word, he really had no idea, he was not a god, and he couldn't turn food into food to help refugees! Kang Peng was reluctant to answer Li Ru's words, so he changed the topic and said: "The thief army will reach Xingyang in a month at most, we have to arrange defenses first, you can discuss it and see how our army should be deployed?" ”

Jia Xu said slowly: "In addition to the threat of the Yellow Turban in the east, according to the Tanmalai newspaper, the notice that suddenly appeared in Luoyang that day has spread to all parts of the country, and the local scholars in Jingzhou are also ready to move. Similarly, Hanzhong Zhang Lu also had bad behavior, Xiliang Han took advantage of Ma Teng's imprisonment in Luoyang, and had annexed Ma Teng's Xijun and Longyou and other places, no matter who of these two armies moved, General Niufu of Chang'an needed reinforcements. ”

Kang Peng gasped, the good things that Boss Dong had done before finally came to retribution, there are enemies in the southeast and west, do you want Dong Zhuojun to divide his troops on three sides? Kang Peng lamented in his heart, damn Boss Dong, you used to do a few bad things, and I can now free up my hands to deal with the Shi Clan, so I don't have to be surrounded by enemies on three sides.

"What then?" Kang Peng asked Jia Xu: "Do we divide our troops into three sides?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head, "There's no need, it's dangerous to divide too many troops, Liu Biao and Zhang Lu are both greedy and afraid of death, as long as we block the east, they won't dare to make a move." The only trouble is Han Sui, this person forgets his righteousness, and likes to stab people in the back the most, but he has not yet fully annexed Xiliang, and he can't draw too many troops to attack our rear, and he suggests that there are many refugees entering the customs, and Luoyang will definitely not be able to accommodate so many people, and the Taishi can arrange them to live in Yongzhou. Second, our army can select strong men from among them to replenish the source of soldiers. In fact, Jia Xu originally wanted to suggest that Dong Zhuo only let strong laborers enter the customs, and the old and weak women and children were not allowed to enter the customs, but although this trick killed two birds with one stone, it was too vicious, and Dong Zhuo would definitely not use this trick, so Jia Xu didn't say it.

"Okay, that's it." Kang Peng is finally a little happy tonight, he is worthy of being a top military teacher, and there are many ways. Who can be sent to reinforce Bishui Pass and Tiger Prison Pass? This is a problem, the military generals conference is about to be held, and these brave generals under their command are all holding their breath to take the first place, if they are asked to take the troops out now, they will definitely not be happy.

Kang Peng's bronze bell eyes swept his generals several times, and finally fixed his gaze on Li Dao and Guo Yan. Kang Peng smiled and was about to speak, Li Dao and Guo Yan spoke first, "Taishi, we are willing to go, anyway, we will definitely not be able to win the ranking in the military conference, it is better to take credit on the battlefield." ”

Kang Peng was overjoyed, and his heart said that smart people, I like it. "Very good, you bring 50,000 Flying Bear Army and 30,000 Xiliang Iron to ride this time, no matter what, keep the Bishui Pass for me, and come back to promote your officials." Kang Peng turned his gaze to Chen Gong again, "Gongtai, this is the ...... of the staff officers of the army."

Chen Gong didn't say a word, and sat down to worship, "Chen Gong is willing to go, and I will help the generals to defend the two passes." ”

Kang Peng smiled and nodded, "You can go to the public station at ease, I will arrange someone to take care of your old mother and wife." "There is a reason why Kang Peng transferred Chen Gong away, he and Jia Xu discussed the killing of the military generals conference and the Confucian Lin Wen Conference, killing the talented people and strangers who refused to take refuge in him in various places, so as to reduce the resistance to the future road of the world. It's just that Kang Peng was worried that Chen Gong would not be able to accept his despicable practices, so he deliberately transferred Chen Gong away.

Dong Zhuojun's meeting lasted until midnight, and Kang Peng was so tired that he went back to rest. After Kang Peng left, Li Rufang asked Jia Xu: "Mr. Wenhe, why don't you propose your next plan to the Taishi?" That way we won't have to go through any more trouble. ”

Jia Xu sighed: "The Taishi is disgusting and kind, loves the people like a son, and is so happy, until the situation is out of control, the Taishi will not use it." Wait, things will get to that point soon! ”

Li Ru also sighed, he had always been ruthless, and he said with pity: "I hope so, but the people of the Central Plains have suffered hardship." Li Ru added, "But it is worth exchanging the disaster of the people of the Central Plains for the people of Kyushu to be free from suffering." ”

……

Kang Peng's order to let the refugees take refuge in Luoyang was sent to Bishui Pass quickly, and the Bishui Pass guard breathed a sigh of relief to Xu Rong, he didn't dare to look at the gate these days, every time he saw those unkempt refugees under the pass, shivering in the cold wind without covering their clothes, and the desperate eyes of not being able to eat their stomachs, Xu Rong had a feeling that his heart was like a knife. Xu Rong came from a humble background, he came to the current point step by step with his military exploits, and the hardships he went through made Xu Rong deeply aware of the suffering of the people, these days he has been saving his rations, and asked his subordinates to also save food, and left the city wall to close the refugees, although it is a drop in the bucket, but it also makes Xu Rong's heart a little better.

"Open and close the door!" After Dong Zhuojun finished preparing, with Xu Rong's order, the sturdy gate of Bishui Pass slowly opened, and hundreds of people flocked in, Xu Rong shouted to the people while directing the soldiers to maintain order, "Folks, don't worry, don't mess up, each person will get ten pot helmets, and go to Luoyang!" Taishi Dong is over there ready to wear and eat, you have to listen to the arrangement of the Taishi when you arrive in Luoyang, and the Taishi will prepare life for you! ”

Dong Zhuojun had already prepared hundreds of food distribution points, and the hungry victims trembled and took the food, and began to eagerly devour it, and some even choked to death on the spot. More people kowtowed to Dong Zhuojun's soldiers with tears in their eyes, and Dong Zhuojun's soldiers would answer as Xu Rong arranged, "Don't thank us, it was Master Dong who asked us to do this, you have to go to Luoyang to thank Master Dong." ”

At the same time, the same scene was in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, where the victims poured into the Tiger Prison Pass like a tide, received the food distributed by Dong Zhuojun, and then marched towards Luoyang, the land of hope in their hearts. It's just that Fan Chou and Zhang Ji, the two bad boys, are not as tall as Xu Rong, and they all took the opportunity to add manpower to their back room.

……

"Bad master, go and apologize to Sister Wen Ji!" Kang Peng had just returned home after a busy day outside, and he couldn't even drink a sip of water, so Sun Shangxiang came to trouble him. "Bad Taishi, yesterday you made Sister Wen Ji cry, go and apologize, otherwise Xiangxiang will ignore you."

Kang Peng was exhausted, this morning he first ordered the generals to send troops, and then Ma Ridan, Zhu Xian and other old stubborn pestered him to marry the two princesses, Kang Peng took a lot of effort to persuade them to wait a few more days, and then arranged food and shelter, ready to treat the disaster victims, busy and dizzy, and now he has the energy to think about Cai Wenji again.

"Xiu'er, rub your head for me." Kang Peng slept on the recliner tiredly, Xiu'er gently rubbed the acupoints on the top of his head for him, and let Sun Shangxiang mess around, Kang Peng just didn't speak, and fell asleep half-awake after a while.

Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but be furious when he saw Kang Peng ignoring her for a while, and suddenly rode onto Kang Peng's round belly and pulled Kang Peng's beard fiercely, "Bad Taishi, bad Taishi speaks." ”

Kang Peng opened his eyes in a daze, saw Sun Shangxiang riding on him, and said in his heart that you will ride better in six years. Kang Peng said lazily: "Xiangxiang, come down, it's not good for you to be seen by others in your posture." ”

Sun Shangxiang was spoiled by Kang Peng, so he would care about this, and he yanked Kang Peng's hard beard viciously, "Bad Taishi, you pushed down your sister, my sister cried, you don't care about her, if you don't apologize to your sister again, my sister and I will ignore you." ”

Kang Peng closed his eyes again, "It's not that I'm bad, it's that she's not good, so many victims are waiting for rescue, and she still plays with her temper, she doesn't want to think about it, if you delay for one more minute, there will be a few more victims who will starve to death." If she ignores me, she will also go, and it will be a big deal that we will not see each other in the future......" As he spoke, Kang Peng fell asleep. Sun Shangxiangqi said: "One minute? What is One Minute? ”

At this time, a person suddenly rushed in from outside the door, it was Cai Wenji, her eyes were red, Kang Peng threw her down in front of many guests last night, she had lost enough face, and later she was counted down by several elders such as her father Cai Yong and the old stubborn Ma Ridan, all of whom blamed her for not knowing the importance and delaying the country's major affairs. Cai Wenji, who was arrogant, could stand this anger and cried a lot, and came to Sun Shangxiang again today, forcing Kang Peng to apologize to her. After Kang Peng came back, Cai Wenji asked Sun Shangxiang to come forward to force Kang Peng, and he hid outside the door and eavesdropped. It's just that I didn't expect Kang Peng not only not to apologize, but also to complain, so it's no wonder that Cai Wenji is not angry.

"Very good, if you don't see it, you won't see it, I will marry in Hedong in two months, and I will never see you again!" After Cai Wenji yelled at the sleeping Kang Peng, she pulled her legs and left, and Xiu'er and Sun Shangxiang couldn't pull it.

It's a pity that Kang Peng is already sleeping like a dead pig at this moment, and he naturally can't hear Cai Wenji's roar......
