The state pastor sent soldiers to kill the locusts, so that the locusts did not dare to approach the crops, and the gods spread among the people, and now they have created something like the keel waterwheel, which can irrigate the fields at high places, and after mastering the use of the waterwheel, they are extremely excited, and their respect for the state is even higher.

Even if there is no order from the state governor's office, the people are very protective of the keel waterwheel, and some people take turns to protect the keel waterwheel.

Finally dealt with the locusts and drought, Lu Bu's whole person suddenly felt relaxed, since the influx of refugees into the state, he basically did not stop.

When Gu Yong arrived outside Huguan, he saw the scene of busy people transporting dried locusts to Huguan, the team was mighty, and he also faintly heard about the locusts, but as long as the people can survive in Bingzhou, it is a good way, after selecting young and strong people from the people, Gu Yong organized refugees to build roads, repaired Huguan, and was sent to the refugees in Bingzhou, strengthened the city wall, and built roads, and was also very busy, and it was the greatest gift for them to find things to do and fill their stomachs in Bingzhou. After feeling the indifference of the other princes, they cherished their current life even more.

The refugees are also highly motivated to cultivate their fields, knowing that the fields may be allocated to them, and the state pastoral government also has incentives for people who have more land to cultivate.

At this time, Lu Bu set his sights on Hedong, and the princes fought again, and he wanted to take advantage of the time when no one cared about it, and took the land of Hedong with lightning speed.

Hedong is next to the Guanzhong Plain, separated by a Yellow River, although it is divided into Sili, the position is closer to Sanfu, and the east of the river is close to the two capitals, the west of Puhan can directly take Chang'an, the south of the Yellow River from the Kunshan can be directly close to Luoyang, the geographical location is very important, it can be said that to control the east of the river, is to control the throat of the world, occupy the division, not only to prevent the threat from the Central Plains, but also to occupy Chang'an, spy on Liangzhou, which is why Yuan Shao is anxious about Hanoi and Hedong.

In Hedong, the most profound family is the Wei family and the Pei family, these two have been entrenched in Hedong for hundreds of years, with deep roots, although Hedong Taishou is the king, but the influence of the two families is very great.

In front of Lu Bu, there is a detailed information about Hedong Taishou Wangyi, the army wants to go to Hedong, must understand the situation in Hedong in detail and thoroughly, in order to be foolproof, Lu Bu knows that the family is resistant to the state army, there is a place for them, they do not want the state army to enter, the family is more often concerned about their own interests, just like Yanzhou, mourning all over the wilderness, but the family is secretly jointly raising the price of grain, so that more people can not afford to buy rice and grain, this situation will not appear in the state, even if it is affected by the refugees, Under the orders of the governor's office, the grain price in the prefecture was still relatively stable, and the merchants were not allowed to transport the rice grain from the prefecture to the Central Plains, which was also in short supply in the prefecture, even though the grain price in the Central Plains was very high.

"Hedong Taishou Wangyi is also a good official, these years in Hedong Guang benevolent government, quite popular with the people of Hedong, Hedong trip, I'm afraid it won't be too smooth." Lu Bu passed the information in his hand to Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Li Su and said slowly.

"The elite of the state army only needs to capture Hedong with lightning speed, what can other princes do even if they covet Hedong?" Li Su said with a proud expression, the invincibility of the Bingzhou army over the years has greatly encouraged Li Su, and now he is the nominal Youzhou pastor, which can be said to be the highest official in Bingzhou except for Lu Bu.

Guo Jia showed a worried look on his face, "Lord, Lord Li, the soldiers of Hedong are full of food, the Wei family and the Pei family are powerful, and it is extremely difficult to quickly capture Hedong, and Yuan Shao of Jizhou is also coveted for Hanoi and Hedong, I am afraid that he will not sit back and watch our army capture Hedong, and General Zhang Liao should pay attention to the movements of the Jizhou army to prevent the Jizhou soldiers and horses from waving troops to Hanoi." ”

Although Yuan Shao is competing with Zhang Yan, if he learns that Lu Bu will attack Hedong, he will definitely not rest, Zhang Yan has tens of thousands of people under his command, and it is difficult to do anything in the face of Yecheng, which is high and deep, and what the Black Mountain Army looks like, the strategists in the field are very clear, these people may be able to bring some trouble to Jizhou, but they are far from Yuan Shao's opponents, Yuan Shao occupies Jizhou, most of Qingzhou, Zhuo County, Guangyang, and has 100,000 elite soldiers.

"Yanzhou soldiers and horses also have to be defended, Cao Cao captured Shouchun, in Yanzhou, Yuzhou to buy locusts, the plan is not small, if the Cao army captures Henan Yin and Hongnong, the army across the Yellow River can attack Hanoi and Hedong." Jia Xu said.

"With Wenhe and Fengxiao, even if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao send troops to the division, what can they do." Lu Bu said with a smile, through the analysis of the two, he also had a more thorough understanding of the current situation.

"Order Zhang Liao to pay close attention to the soldiers and horses of Jizhou, and Xu Huang to strictly guard against the soldiers and horses of Hedong and Henan Yin." Lu Bu ordered.

"Bring the sand table." Lu Budao, this is also a surprise he is ready to give to the strategists, when marching and fighting, the most important thing is the map, and the role of the sand table is to show the map more clearly in front of everyone's eyes, whether it is mountains and rivers or cities and plains, at a glance.

After Jia Xu saw the sand table, his eyes also lit up, as a strategist, he knew the importance of such a thing to the army, compared with the previous map, it was easier for people to observe the overall situation.

"With this thing in hand, why worry about the east of the river not breaking." Jia Xu praised, such a thing has never appeared in the past, not to mention anything else, just this thing, it definitely took a lot of thought, and it is also the most confidential thing in the state.

"This sand table, but it took a lot of effort to make it, so you can make do with it." Lu Bu said with a smile, compared with the sophisticated sand tables in later generations, the sand tables in front of him can only be described as rough.

"Fengxiao, Wenhe, and look, if you want to attack Hedong, the most important thing is to capture Jiguan, if Jiguan is lost, then capture Hedong Yiyi, after the army captures Jiguan, all the way to Dayang, to prevent Hongnong's soldiers and horses from entering Hedong, all the way to Wenxi, the army to encircle Anyi, then Hedong Ding."

Following the direction of Lu Bu's finger, Jia Xu and Guo Jia also nodded thoughtfully, Hedong is close to Hongnong, as long as the Jiguan is occupied, the soldiers can point to Anyi, of course, the most important thing is to capture the Jiguan, and now that the state army occupies Hanoi, Hedong will definitely strengthen the defense of the Jiguan, the terrain of the Jiguan is dangerous, it is a more important checkpoint around Luoyang, if it is a strong attack, it will definitely require a great price.

There are two more chapters around eight o'clock in the evening.
