This guy ran away, Cao Xuan just felt a little sorry, it was not a big deal, but some people didn't seem to think so, just listening to Zhou Cang's words, Hu Che'er next to him snorted coldly and said.

"It's not all you, bastard, the equestrian skills are so bad, I see that I'm going to catch up, and you're all there to hold back!"

Zhou Cang was also angry when he heard this, and scolded directly: "My equestrian skills are too poor, your equestrian skills are very good, and you are about to catch up with that bastard, but you can't tell the difference between north and south, and you beat all the people around you, but you just let this guy go, you are quite capable!" ”

Seeing that these two people were going to quarrel again, Cao Xuan hurriedly waved his hand to stop the quarrel between the two of them, anyway, Cao Xing's battle was relatively successful.

After returning to Bianyun County, Cao Xing began to embark on a series of reforms, and now there are two counties that have been completely mastered by Cao Xing, one is Bianyun County, and the other is the county seat under the jurisdiction of Fengyun. At this point, Fengyun's county order has become worthy of its name.

But one day, a letter was delivered to Cao Xing's mansion, Cao Xing opened it and looked at it, with a smile on his face, Liu Wan has been doing business in another county, and the business can also be said to be prosperous.

Liu Wan told Cao Xing that although the county order in their county seat was born in a family, it was a small family, and he couldn't say anything locally, he had always been at the mercy of others.

In three months, the family in another county was gradually expelled by Liu Wan by all means, but there was no way, although the status of merchants was generally very low in this era, if under normal circumstances, merchants and families were against each other, which was tantamount to asking for a dead end.

But now that Liu Wan has the support of the government, he has also begun to become stronger, and the easiest way is to throw money and smash all these families out.

So now Cao Xuan can completely control the county, there are a total of three, Cao Xing's first thing to do is to implement the household registration system, now Bianyun County is a middle-to-upper county, with a total population of more than 50,000 people, but the two counties next to it, there are some not enough to see, one is only a little more than 20,000, one is less than 20,000, a total of less than 100,000 people, seeing this data, Cao Xuan still shook helplessly, the head population is the most favorable resource, and only with the population can it develop.

Therefore, Cao Xing did not hesitate at the moment, and immediately promulgated a series of new policies, so that the two counties began to synchronize with Bianyun County.

The general content of the New Deal was to encourage agriculture and distribute land, to improve the status of merchants, and to promote equality for all people, or at least equality of personality. Others are not allowed to insult others at will. Failure to do so will be severely punished by law.

At the same time, Cao Xing also demanded that legal control be strengthened, so that there is a law to follow, and there will be no loopholes for those who steal and cheat.

Although many people were a little surprised by a series of policies promulgated by Cao Xing, because the problems of the times have been deeply influenced by Confucianism, and they were a little unable to turn around for a while, people still gradually accepted them, after all, the most benefited from these decrees were ordinary people, so everyone's enthusiasm began to be mobilized.

With the rapid increase in grain production and the continuous exchange of economy and trade, the three county towns have shown a thriving scene.

Under the influence of these three county seats, many people flocked to it, and in less than a month, many people came to visit, and Cao Xing did not refuse all of them, and settled down on the spot, distributed enough land to each family, and told them that as long as the annual grain output could reach the highest in each region, the government would give money as a reward, which greatly increased the enthusiasm of the peasant households.

Therefore, within a month, the number of people under Cao Xing's control increased by more than 50,000.

In the face of all this situation, Cao Xuan naturally applauded, but some people were happy and some were sad, seeing that all the people spontaneously ran to Cao Xing, the most unhappy person was naturally that the original Jiuyuan County was solidified.

After another half a month, it seems that Zheng Gu can't bear it anymore, Cao Xing has brought all the people of the state to him, resulting in many counties under the management of Zheng Gu now, there is a feeling of empty alleys, all of them are sparsely scattered on the streets, and there are not many people at all.

Therefore, in the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and published an article to raise troops to fight against Cao Xing.

It is said that Zheng Gu also seems to have been approved by the Assassin Mansion, which awarded more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and Zheng Gu also staked all his soldiers and horses, a full 30,000 soldiers and horses, and killed Cao Xing's side in a mighty way.

In the face of the pressure of the soldiers, Cao Xuan not only did not panic at all, everything was done in an orderly manner, Cao Xuan first gathered all the soldiers and horses in one place, obviously to decide the victory or defeat with Zhenggu.

At the same time, Cao Xing also came to the battlefield in person, after all, this time the battle situation was very important to him.

In the face of the momentum of the Zheng Gu army, Cao Xuan did not come to a decisive battle with the Zheng Gu, he directly asked Zhong Qi, with the two thousand archers he personally trained, standing at the forefront, as long as the soldiers and horses of the Zheng Gu dared to attack, then a burst of random arrows shot down, Cao Xing's selected archers, everyone, under Cao Xing's teaching, everyone became an excellent archer, so every round of arrows down, the enemy's casualties were at least thousands, there was no way, Zheng Gu had to retreat, just like that, Zheng Gu and the others charged again and again, and were beaten back again and again, and they fought for half a month, but there was no substantive effect. The people on their side are constantly being damaged.

He felt that if he withdrew from the army like this, first of all, his reputation would plummet, and secondly, Cao Xing would become more rampant, so he put on a resolute attitude of not retreating and wanting to fight Cao Xing to the death, and even sent people to call for battle every day, constantly insulting Cao Xing, and asking Cao Xuan to come out to fight a decisive battle.

Like Chen Hu Zhou Cang and others have a violent temper, they must have been unable to help it, and they have asked for battle, but Cao Xuan waved his hand indifferently, so that they could not be impatient, Cao Xuan stood on the fence and looked at it, it could be seen from afar, and there were many soldiers standing at the gate of the camp at the moment in the military camp, all of them were looking at Cao Xuan in confusion.

These soldiers are not stupid, now they have been fighting for half a month, their comrades-in-arms around them have suffered heavy casualties, dead and disabled, and a third of them have fallen and can no longer fight, but they have not retreated, on the other hand, Cao Xing's side, the casualties in half a month are only double digits, and it is said that if Cao Xing's men are soldiers, if they die, or are disabled, and cannot be saved, Cao Xing will give the families of those soldiers a generous pension.

Cao Xing's approach can be regarded as setting a precedent in the era of cold weapons, although this practice is unprecedented, but in the ears of many soldiers, there is a heart-warming feeling, so every time there is a battle, Cao Xing's soldiers can charge with confidence.

What made the soldiers on the Zhenggu side even more angry was that every time they were eating, they could only look at the coarse tea and light rice in the bowl, smell the aroma of meat wafting from Cao Xing's barracks, and sigh with joy.

Cao sex is also very important to animal husbandry, he often goes to Jia Kui's management of the animal husbandry factory again and again to observe, according to the later generations to see the management experience of those livestock farms, to Jia Kui put forward many ideas, Jia Kui said that can not be absorbed immediately, but others are smart and willing to learn, slowly absorb and digest all these suggestions, and use them in practice, so now animal husbandry is also doing well.

Cao Xing did not push the animal husbandry to the market as soon as he came, but aimed his eyes at the military camp, the productivity was low in ancient times, and he lived a small peasant life of male farmers and female weavers, and there was only a little coarse tea and light rice every day, not to mention that he was born in troubled times, and it was already a blessing to be able to survive in troubled times, not to mention eating meat.

Cao Xing also knew that half of the sergeants chose to join the army, not because they felt how great a soldier was, but to fill their stomachs, because if they joined the army, they would take care of you for at least two meals.

However, now in Cao Xing's barracks, even if you are just an ordinary soldier, you will not only manage two meals, but also have meat for meals, and have meat every day, which not only enriches the rations of the soldiers, but also mobilizes their enthusiasm, replenishes their physical strength, increases their combat effectiveness, and the tempting meat soup not only benefits your soldiers, but also makes the morale of the enemy suffer a great blow.

In the end, Su Gu and the others couldn't hold on anymore, and after a month, they slowly retreated to Jinyang with the remnants of the defeated army, and Cao Xuan did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, Chen Hu and others wanted to ask Cao Xing, why not take this opportunity to eliminate Zheng Gu and others in one fell swoop, but Cao Xuan said with a smile.

"Now it is just a firm foothold, recuperation, and the most important thing is to prepare for the enemy, as long as you are strong, the enemy army will collapse without a fight!"

This battle has allowed Cao Xing to gain a firm foothold in Bingzhou, and some officials were originally dissatisfied with him, the county guard of Jiuyuan County, but when they saw Cao Xing's triumphant return, they all consciously closed their mouths, and finally acquiesced to this fact in their hearts.

After Cao Xing returned, he continued to organize government affairs, increase the training of soldiers, and at the same time increase the trade of merchants and the production of crops.

Whenever Cao Xuan is idle, Cao Xuan looks up at the starry sky, and he can't help but think in his heart that now the two brothers Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao have basically gained a firm foothold outside, and Cao Cao's guy should almost return to Qiao County, and the era of division is coming.
