Chen Xiaowu of Wang Jiaji, originally not from Xuzhou, his earliest home was in Sili, with five brothers and a father, a mother, and several sisters-in-law and nephews. Old and young, large and small, more than 20 people. The ancestor also used to be a small official, so he kept some land and property, and the country was peaceful and peaceful, and he lived a small rich family.

But Dong Zhuo caused trouble in Luoyang, completely shattering the peace of the family, and in that war, my father died first in the war, and the family could only flee to Yuzhou.

With some family background, he took root in Yuzhou, and later there was a war in Yuzhou, and he had to take his family to Yanzhou.

It's really ridiculous, Yanzhou hasn't been peaceful recently, and I can't help it, so I came to Xuzhou.

After these wars, Xuzhou has become a paradise, all the wars are fought around Xuzhou, and it has become a natural rear.

Although the tax burden is heavier, it will pass after forbearance, and although there is more forced labor, it will still pass after forbearance. The eldest brother went to war and never returned. Then there was the second brother, and in the end, in this family, he was left with a few sisters-in-law, as well as nephews and nieces.

Originally, according to the regulations, this is the last limit, and the officials also know that the land needs strong labor to work, otherwise there will be no tax output, and a family needs a man to carry it, otherwise the family will be completely ruined, so the above is gracious, and he did not let himself go to the battlefield again, but let himself become a small local Lizheng, running for them.

The days are finally peaceful, and everything will be fine, which is what Chen Xiaowu has always thought and looked forward to.

But the good times didn't last long, the new relocation began, this time the relocation is fundamentally different from the past, this time to move to the place, that is, in the eyes of the Central Plains people to the wild miasma, there is no survival there, so Chen Xiaowu used his authority, when he helped Cao Wei transfer the population, quietly transferred his family to the mountains, and then disappeared directly to the boss.

After hiding for more than a month, fighting with wolves, insects, tigers and leopards for a month, the outside world was finally quiet, so Chen Xiaowu secretly went down the mountain and entered Xuzhou City.

The city wall is still tall, the city gate tower is still majestic, the city gate is open, and a gust of cold wind passes through the village gate in the city gate, sending out a sharp whistling, blowing out the yin wind, which makes people not feel frightened.

Chen Xiaowu carefully observed and paid attention to the outside of the city gate, and after making sure that there was indeed no one inside, he walked in tremblingly.

The originally crowded streets, at this time empty like the wilderness, appear more wide, the shops on the left and right, even the doors and windows have been demolished, there is no one to see, there are people who have been killed everywhere on both sides of the road, in the winter, they are frozen into zombies, occasionally one or two wild dogs appear, red eyes roaring at him, Chen Xiaowu used the hardwood stick in his hand, waving at them, but none of these mad dogs were afraid.

While driving away the mad dogs, he walked to the original Wei Wangfu.

The Wei Wangfu was still majestic and tall, and there was no fire when he left, but there was no one to see, Chen Xiaowu stood outside the door, cowering and trembling, and then asked in a low voice inside: "Is there anyone?" Is there anybody? ”

There was no voice to answer him, only a howling cold wind, and Chen Xiaowu walked into the Wei Palace.

He had never been in this place before, and he didn't even dare to come nearby because his level was not high enough, but today he was able to enter the house.

The more he walked in, the more daring he became, and the fear formed by the awe at the beginning turned into a high-spirited stride, and when he walked up to the hall of the King of Wei, he saw that the throne of the King of Wei on the high steps was still there, but the house was empty.

Chen Xiaowu had a little more playfulness, first of all, he bowed deeply to the treasure pillar: "Chen Xiaowu, the minister, visited His Royal Highness the King of Wei." ”

Then he ran up, sat on the throne, and pretended to be solemn and said down: "Chen Xiaowu, I now make you the general of the protector of the country and protect the land of Xuzhou." ”

Chen Xiaowu went down again and replied respectfully at the top: "The minister must serve the country desperately and protect Xuzhou." ”

It's been a lot of fun. Then he reluctantly walked out of the Wei Palace, closed the gate of the palace, ran back to the mountains, and took the worried family into Xuzhou again, and then directly occupied the Wei Wangfu and became the owner of this empty city.

Everything has been looted, there is nothing, how can life go on?

So Chen Xiaowu, the general who protected the country, began to mobilize his family to look for supplies. Xuzhou is so vast, once a metropolis of hundreds of thousands of people, even if it is exhausted, without setting fire to it, there will always be many things, for this reason, Chen Xiaowu is tired of this, just like a treasure hunter, in this huge city, looking for his own treasure of hope.

The hard work paid off, in a huge grain reserve warehouse, finally in a corner, Chen Xiaowu found a warehouse full of forgotten grain, as much as 5,000 stones, such a harvest simply made him ecstatic, with this food, not to mention a family, even if there are hundreds of people, they can eat for three or five years.

The first thing he did was to mobilize the family and start collecting the frozen corpses on the street, because spring was about to start in a blink of an eye, and the snow would melt away, and the corpses would rot, and then a plague would be inevitable, and his family would have no way to survive.

God actually favors him, because there are people like him, the relocation of the government did not take all the population away, with the smoke from the chimney of his house in Xuzhou City, which has become a sign of life, slowly, like their family hiding in the mountains, also quietly came out, slowly gathered in Xuzhou City, after all, there is a city wall as protection, wolves, insects, tigers and leopards can not hurt everyone.

For the population that appeared, Chen Xiaowu also took out his own food and distributed it to everyone, so that slowly, more and more people gathered, and in the end, there were 1,000 people, which was simply a miracle at this time.

So Chen Xiaowu took out his might as a general to protect the country, sat upright on the throne of the Wei Palace, and began to assign various tasks.

The population is larger, and it is faster to do things, while burying the corpse, Chen Xiaowu also sent a group of people to the inner and outer courtyards of various shops in the city, and began to dig up the money that was forgotten by people, and the result was a very good idea, all kinds of material wealth, began to slowly gather to the Wei Wangfu, although now these money, gold, silver and jewelry, have no effect, but as long as the spring flowers bloom, no matter which force comes, it will bring batch after batch of businessmen, and at that time, everyone will suddenly become rich overnight, and they will not worry about food, clothing, and housing.

When Chen Xiaowu was immersed in his power as a protector general all day long, in the middle of the afternoon of this day, a rumbling cavalry appeared at the gate of the city.
