"Lord!" The next day, Hao Meng came to find it.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Hao Meng's face was not very good, Sun Ce asked with some confusion.

"Lord Qiqi, the elite soldiers have been selected, only ......" Speaking of this, Hao Meng couldn't help but shake his head.

"How many?" Sun Ce was slightly stunned, is it too little?

"Only a thousand!" Hao Meng said, "This is still measured by the lowest standard of our army, if it is measured according to the standard of our army's elite soldiers and horses, there may not even be five hundred people!" ”

"What?" Sun Ce was very surprised, how could this be possible? A team of nearly 20,000 people only selected 1,000 people, I'm afraid I'm not joking with him, right?

"That's right, this Yan Baihu is crazy, no different from the yellow scarf at the beginning, as long as it is a man, he has to go to the battlefield with a weapon! Therefore, 70% of men over the age of 45 are suffering, and many of them suffer from various diseases! Hao Meng reported.

"It's disgusting!" Sun Ce clenched his fists in hatred, and then said to Hao Meng, "Send these people home, although the army doesn't need them, but their families must need them!" What's more, the backbone of Jiangshan Sheji is these people! ”

"Hmmm! Subordinates understood! Hao Meng nodded, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Sun Ce stopped Hao Meng, who was about to leave, "Everyone will give a severance pay, treat the people, we can't be stingy!" ”

Hao Meng was slightly stunned when she heard this, it was already benevolent to let them go home, but she didn't expect Sun Ce to want to give them severance pay, but isn't this the charm of Sun Ce? So, Hao Meng nodded: "Yes!" ”

After Hao Meng left the big tent, Sun Ce frowned, he didn't want to spend much severance pay, all this money is now a small amount of money Sun Ce is already a small amount of money here, but what Sun Ce is really worried about is how many such people are still forced to go to the battlefield by the Shanyue leaders, so, it may be common for wives to be separated and families to be ruined, right?

"Lord, ...... we next" Guo Jia looked at Sun Ce and frowned, and couldn't help but ask.

"Well, let's speed up the pace of conquering Shanyue!" Sun Ce shook his head slightly. Before, Sun Ce thought that Shanyue was just a general term for those ethnic minorities who occupied the mountains as kings or those who occupied the county as kings, but now it seems that this Shanyue is far more simple than Sun Ce imagined, even if it is Sun Ce, he can't fully know what Shanyue covers, the people? Soldier? Minority?

"Yes!" Guo Jia nodded, but like Sun Ce, he also frowned, Shanyue is really all over Yangzhou, and the branches are wide, just like the previous yellow scarf!

"Hey!" Sun Ce sighed, "This Shanyue has similarities with the Yellow Turban, but it is also different!" ”

Guo Jia is a smart person, so he naturally knows what Sun Ce means by similarity and difference. The similarity is that it is widely distributed, and the backbone is actually the people, but the difference is that the yellow scarves are the people who voluntarily rebelled against the imperial court after being brainwashed, and what about Shanyue? These civilian soldiers were forced by the Shanyue soldiers to come and make enemies of Sun Ce!

"Fengxiao, do you think there will be such a paradise, where the people are far away from the hardships of war, live and work in peace and contentment, and live in harmony?" Sun Ce asked faintly.

"Yes!" Guo Jia nodded, "As long as we work hard, the future Han will be the paradise that the lord said!" ”

"Yes, the goal of our efforts is to enable the people to live such a paradise and no longer suffer from war!" Sun Ce nodded, and after saying this, Sun Ce was silent and didn't say anything more.

As for Guo Jia, he also stood silently by Sun Ce's side, why wasn't his goal like this? The reason why he recognized Sun Ce as the master was completely because of this, completely because of Sun Ce's ideals, such a paradise, who wouldn't want to see it?

But is the real paradise really so easy to appear? No, that's just an imaginary realm, in the real world, as long as there are people, there will be disputes, big and small, more or less, these are unavoidable, and, no matter where it is, there will definitely be a gap between the rich and the poor, and even a gap in status, what Sun Ce wants to do is to reduce such a gap as much as possible!

"Okay, the order goes down, and after the rectification is completed, we will pull out and leave!" After being silent for a while, Sun Ce spoke.

"Yes!" Guo Jia nodded and left.

"Next...... Jin Qi, Pan Lin! Sun Ce said coldly, and then clenched his fists.

"Lord!" Guo Jia went and returned.

"What's the matter?" Sun Ce asked with a slight startle.

"Then how to deal with Liu Bei's matter, do you want to notify Gan Ning to intercept it?" Guo Jia asked.

"In this way, although it is not a frontal interception, at least let Liu Bei leave all the soldiers and horses in Yangzhou, and if you want to go to Jingzhou, it is good to go alone!" Sun Ce smiled slightly, "Inform Gan Ning that there is still Zilong, so ...... So ......"

"Haha, lord, you're a little more insidious, aren't you?" Guo Jia laughed out loud.

"Each other!" Sun Ce smiled, "You can't use ordinary means to treat people like Liu Bei, you also saw it before, that face is thicker than the city wall!" ”

That's right, maybe Liu Bei was not like this when he was a fledgling, but with repeated failures, repeated escapes, and repeated wanderings, Liu Bei's face is now very thick, and his mood is invisible, and it is completely what a hero should look like.

"Indeed, Jia has never seen such a brazen person! Liu Bei is the first! Guo Jia shrugged his shoulders, thinking about Liu Bei's cheeky face, it is indeed as Sun Ce said, invincible in the world!

"Alright, let's get busy! The matter of Jiangdong is quite simple, and the real headache is when you fight with the northern princes in the future! Sun Ce smiled slightly, but he remembered another prince, that is, the traitor in troubled times, Cao Cao.

At this moment, Cao Cao should still be worried about the emperor's affairs, right?

In fact, as Sun Ce expected, Cao Cao decided to bring Liu Wei and a group of ministers to Chen Liu, but now is not Cao Cao at that time in history, and the current Cao Cao's territory seems to be only a few counties near Chen Liu, and the entire Yanzhou is not Cao Cao's! In this case, how should the little emperor be placed? This has become a big headache for Cao Cao!

Fortunately, the little emperor has nothing to pick, it's good that someone can come and give him a bite to eat, and now Liu Wei hasn't eaten anything delicious for a long time!
