(Overlord anti-detachment and anti-garbled code)

On the throne, Cao Cao smiled and stroked his short beard, and said loudly: "Everyone! Tomorrow is the winter solstice, and this year is hard for everyone! Now let's summarize the gains and losses of this year and the direction of our development next year! It's just a simple symposium, don't be so inhibited! Yuan Jean! Let's talk about military affairs first! ”

"No!" Xiahoudun hugged Cao Cao and said, "This year, we have seized the entire territory of Yuzhou from Yuan Shu. Through careful screening, 50,000 veteran troops were left behind, and they were stationed in 26 checkpoints in Yuzhou. In addition to the 100,000 Qingzhou troops left in Puyang, there are also 210,000 people left in shifts to Tuntian. At present, our army has a total of 360,000 men and horses, all of which are registered. ”

Guo Jia picked up the wine gourd and moistened his lips and said: "Since Yuan Shu's army entered Huaisi in the east, although the surrounding princes have not attacked quite clearly. But you still need to pay attention! I just learned that Zhang Ji and Li Dao and Guo Yan fought with Ma Teng and Han Sui in Xianyang, and Zhang Ji was shot in the left chest by Ma Teng's son Ma Chao with an arrow, and then handed over all his men to his nephew Zhang Xiu to command. Now this group of men and horses occupies Wuguan, and there is a faint intention to attack Wancheng. ”

Mao Jie and Zao arrived: "This autumn, Yanzhou Tunzheng will get 1.4 million stones, and I hope that the lord can continue to generalize Tun and Mintun." Xun Yu continued: "The new commercial law formulated by the Ximen master book has collected 3 million yuan less than last year, but the private business has really been more active. As long as you can gather all the businessmen, it will be easy to do in the future! ”

Cao Hong has always been known as "asking for money too much", and he is the most greedy, and when he heard that he had received three million less money, his face turned a little blue and said: "Xun Jun! How did that Simon Kid change the business tax? So little, so much! Three million dollars! Do you want to pay the soldiers? ”

Xun Yu smiled and said: "General Zilian, don't be anxious, the master of Ximen said that he would collect less tax in the first year, so that the businessmen could have more capital in the coming year, and make their own business bigger on the original basis." In this way, our business tax will increase year by year, and we are afraid that the tax will be reduced? "But Xun Jun! That's a loss of three million dollars this year! ”

"Hahahaha! Does General Zilian like to touch big fish or small fish when he is fishing in the countryside? "Naturally, it's a big fish! It's not enough to drink when you touch a small fish! Yes! You mean to raise merchants as fish! ”

Everyone laughed: "Hahahaha! General Cao Hong (Brother Zilian) finally saw the true face of the main book of Ximen! Xun Yu waited until everyone finished laughing, and then broke out a shocking prediction: "The master of Ximen also wrote to me that a group of veterans who have been eliminated from the regular troops of our army will be assigned to the local area, and scattered and supplemented into county and pavilion-level units to maintain local order." "Drink! If you want to recruit soldiers by yourself, you can train them yourself! I, Cao Hong, am not a veteran who has been eliminated! "That's it! The first camp and the food pressing team are short of people! There is no veteran for him! ”

Cao Cao said: "How can such a big matter be explained by letter? Didn't Ximenqing arrange to sort out the dossier in Yingchuan a long time ago? Where are the others! Why don't you have some Mao? Xun Yu said: "He recruited a virtuous man for the lord in Yingchuan, and after a letter was pushed to me, he went to Wancheng." said that he also wanted to recruit one or two generals who could compete with Zhang He and Ju Yi under Yuan Shao! ”

Cao Cao whispered: "Well, although that kid is a little out of tune. But this person who went on the horse to govern the army and the people on the horse also personally replaced Cao to visit the talented general. It's kind of heartfelt! Xun Yu said: "Hahahaha! If the lord knew that Simon Boy said this, he probably wouldn't be able to laugh! ”

"Oh? What did he say? "He said that the lord recruited talents either to help, or to help, but if he didn't work, he could be an accomplice! But he Ximenqing can't help, and he can't help idle, and no one will even be afraid of him if he pretends to be a murderer! I had to be more diligent and help the lord to find useful people, and let the lord raise him for more time after giving up this stinky face! ”

"Hahahaha! He's a man who understands! I want to make more money from Cao! Cao just let him earn enough! Hahahaha! That's right! Where's the man he recommended? Bring him over and help sum it up! ”

Ximen Qing will be personally escorted by Miss Ma Yunlu to walk on the official road dejectedly. Wuguan has been taken by the enemy Zhang Xiu, and taking that road adds a bit of danger. This time, in order to abduct and sell Ximenqing, a wealthy guy, to Xiliang, he could only avoid Cao Cao's meticulous work and go around in a big circle. From Luyang, it passed Cao Cao's ruling range, and then went around the wilderness and mountains west of Songshan Mountain to the Tiger Prison Pass.
