Sima Ju, who was full of hope, couldn't even raise the courage to resist when he saw the 8,000 elite soldiers led by Gao Ye blocking between Mount Tai and Qingbei. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 No matter how stupid he is, he knows what it means for High Night to be here. This time, everyone sent troops to seize Yanzhou, which was a complete failure. After this battle, although he killed Liu Dai and beheaded Bao Xin, it can be said that Xu He became famous. But as soon as Cao Cao came, he not only lost 100,000 young people, but also lost Xu He's life. Now that the night is here, if I don't beg to surrender again, I'm afraid that even my own life will be lost.

I want to run hundreds of miles in a row at night, just for the yellow turban population gathered in Mount Tai, and now Xu He has died in battle, Sima Ju has become a turtle in the urn, and the whole Mount Tai has long been panicked. Don't look at Sima Ju's people haven't run to Mount Tai yet, but under the deliberate spread of the news of the defeat in the high night, how can the people of Mount Tai not know? Gao Ye never thought that Cao Cao would be defeated at the hands of small characters like Xu He and Sima Ju. In any case, Cao Cao is also a master of the contemporary art of war, and the record of this battle in the history books is even more unremarkable, so there must be no accidents. Therefore, when Xu He had just fought with Cao Cao, Gao Ye had already sent people to spread rumors of Xu He's defeat in Mount Tai. The panicked Qingzhou Yellow Turban tribesmen were even more anxious when they heard that Gao Ye was coming to attack. First, I was afraid of the prestige of the high night, and secondly, Xu He and Sima Ju were all in Yanzhou, and no one in the whole Taishan presided over the overall situation. Therefore, after Gao Ye announced the conditions for recruitment, all the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans surrendered.

Sima Ju, who met Gao Ye at this time, although he felt that Taishan's situation was not good, he didn't expect that it would be eroded to this point. But in the end, he was a smart man, and when he found that there was a high night interception in front of him and Cao Cao's chasing soldiers in the back, he immediately turned back and asked Cao Cao to surrender. Because he also knew that Gao Ye had already taken refuge in Cao Cao, so how could asking Gao Ye to surrender compare to directly surrendering to Cao Cao?

It was also after Cao Cao officially accepted his surrender that Sima Ju knew that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban tribes in the entire Mount Tai had all been recruited by Gao Ye, and Gao Ye was only waiting to defeat himself, so he was ready to take everyone to move to Dongjun, Jiyin, and Shanyang. After all, Taishan is close to Qing and Xu Erzhou, far away from Dongjun, the center of Cao Cao's current rule, so Cao Cao felt that it would be better to temporarily place everyone closer to him, and it would be convenient to control.

When Gao Ye heard that Sima Ju had surrendered to Cao Cao, he naturally no longer arranged troops and was ready to fight him, but instead began an orderly immigration move. What surprised Cao Cao the most was the number of yellow turbans in Qingzhou, although Gao Ye had told him before that there were no less than one million yellow scarves in Qingzhou, but when he really heard the statistics that Gao Ye gave him, he knew how many yellow scarves there were in Qingzhou.

“…… According to the statistics, there are nearly 350,000 households in Mount Tai alone, of which more than 140,000 are young and strong, and there are no less than 1 million old, weak, women and children. Among them, there are many widows and lonely people, but only 30,000 are disabled. Now that the four counties of Yanzhou have been enriched, and the grain and grass are supplied by Yingchuan, and if you want to come next year, the grain and grass should not be a problem. ”

"How can there be so many Yellow Turbans? When Zhang Jiao rebelled, there were only a million people, but now there are so many Yellow Turbans in just one Taishan County? ”

"How can this be the same? Zhang Jiao had 600,000 young and strong people at that time, and 300,000 old peasants poisoned the world for him. Today, most of these millions are old, weak, women and children, and those young and strong families. Besides, although Zhang Jiao is dead, the heroes and powerful people in various places are still there, will those poor people no longer be bullied? If you don't really can't survive, who will drag your family to rebel. Gao Ye shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's okay, under the rule of the lord, the population will increase by nearly one and a half million at once, whether it is the source of soldiers or food and grass, it can be guaranteed." ”

"It's just that it's been a bad year. 1.5 million people, and they don't know what they need for food and grass. Even if you have enough grain and grass in Yingchuan, you can still support it in a year, if the harvest is not good next year, or if there are any natural or man-made disasters, I am afraid that it will be chaotic again. ”

"Well, that's true, but with the two kinds of new grain I gave you, plus the new farm tools and the "Qi Min Yao Shu" written by the farmer master, as long as there is a suitable official to prime minister this matter, there will be no problem with a bumper harvest next year." Gao Ye said with a smile. This "Qi Min Yaoshu" is actually a comprehensive agricultural work written by Jia Siqian in the last years of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it is said to be one of the earliest monographs in the history of agriculture in the world. However, although Gao Ye deduced that this book was made by a farmer master, in fact, even the people of the peasant family under his command had never seen this book. It's just that Gao Ye's own origin is weird, and I really can't explain it to everyone clearly, anyway, Jia Siqian is also a generation of agronomists, and it doesn't seem to be a problem to push him in the farmer's house.

Cao Cao listened to Gao Ye's relaxation, and he also smiled. To be honest, according to Gao Ye's thoughts, there will naturally be no problems with grain and grass next year. Besides, even if something really goes wrong, can you give up on these populations? According to Gao Ye, these people are the key to their own dominance in the world, and he doesn't think so. Besides, even Zao, who was the most familiar with farming under his command, was full of praise for these Kitty farm tools in Gao Ye. After watching "Qi Min's Technique", he was even more frightened by the high night. Fortunately, I heard Cao Cao say that there are peasant masters under Gao Ye, which can be regarded as returning to normal.

The book contains 10 volumes and 92 chapters, detailing the experience of agricultural and animal husbandry production, food processing and storage, the utilization of wild plants, and the methods of controlling famine in the Yellow River Basin, and a detailed description of the seasons, climate, and the relationship between different soils and different crops. Therefore, Zao Yi was surprised at first, how could Gao Ye have such a great ability before he was established.

However, as soon as it is said that this is the work of a peasant master among the hundred schools of thought of the pre-Qin princes, this makes sense. Especially among Gao Ye's retainers, there are masters from peasant families, and it is natural that Gao Ye can get this book. Gao Ye is now famous in both civil and military affairs, and if he still has such profound knowledge in farming, he really doesn't know what to say about him. Even a genius can't do that.

After Cao Cao listened to Gao Ye's proposal, the first thing he did when he returned to Dongjun was to discuss with Zaoyi. Zao Yi is quite talented, and even Yuan Shao wanted to poach him from his subordinates, but Zao Yi was very loyal to himself, so he stayed under his own account. He is not only familiar with agricultural affairs, but also has great talents, and Cao Cao thought that it would not be a problem for him to let him govern one state and one county. Now he has to take millions of yellow scarves to Tuntian, such a thing is none other than him. Therefore, after Zao Yi asked Cao Cao that he had to come out to help him with the people from the peasant families under Gao Ye, he agreed to Cao Cao's request.

In his opinion, the tuntian system implemented by Gao Ye in Yingchuan is really a rather clever method. He is originally from Yangzhai, how can he not know what is happening in his hometown? Gao Ye's hand not only gave the Yellow Turbans a way to live, especially for them to farm for the government, which not only met the needs of the government for food, but also made the Yellow Turbans easily controlled. Coupled with the temptation of Gao Ye and the conditions of letting go of Liang, how can these yellow scarves be dissatisfied with the grateful work for Gao Ye?

Now that Cao Cao wants to dominate the world, then grain and grass must be the top priority. Therefore, after accepting Cao Cao's order, he personally went to Gao Ye to inquire about the planting methods, yields and various precautions of corn and potatoes, and then returned to Dongjun with Gao Ye's retainers, the physical objects and design drawings of farm tools, plus the seeds of potatoes and corn, and prepared to start the preparations before Tuntian.

As soon as the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans arrived in Yanzhou, they were scattered into the five counties of Chenliu, Dongjun, Shanyang, Jiyin and Dongping. With Cao Cao's support, although the Yanzhou family was a little dissatisfied with this matter, looking at Cao Cao's face, plus the vested interests of the various families were not damaged, they turned a blind eye to Cao Cao's behavior.

Cao Cao's military action was extremely fast, from Liu Dai's death to Cao Cao's recovery of one million Qingzhou Yellow Turbans for his own use, but it was only two months. In just two months, Cao Cao sat firmly in Yanzhou, which really shocked the princes of the world. In the third year of the first peace, Cao Cao brought too much shock to the world, first taking advantage of Liu Dai's death, he quickly sat in the position of Yanzhou pastor; This was followed by the surrender of Gao Ye and his Yingchuan; Next, he subdued millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans with lightning speed, and even selected 50,000 young people from them to form Qingzhou soldiers. Cao Cao's current strength jumped to 100,000 all of a sudden, and he became a real prince.

However, Cao Cao's surprise to everyone is far more than that. Not long after the matter of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban calmed down, another thing that shocked the world appeared. Cao Cao wrote an article to promote the papermaking technique of Gao Ye. For a time, all parts of Yanzhou opened paper shops, and the shop name "Dexi" was a combination of a word from himself and Gao Yebiao. For a time, low-priced, high-quality and a wide variety of paper swept the land of Yanzhou, and then swept the world, and was praised by the people of the world. Even Kong Rong in Beihai, Zhang Jian in Jingzhou, and Zheng Xuan in Qingzhou also wrote articles in person, praising Cao Cao's initiative to benefit the world.

Yuan Shao, who finally defeated Gongsun Zan and successfully occupied Jizhou and Bingzhou, was furious after hearing that Cao Cao had done such a big thing. Although Cao Cao is now on the same front as him, he already feels Cao Cao's threat to him. Although everyone under his command advised Yuan Shao to calm his anger for the time being, after all, there was still Yuan Shu in the south who needed Cao Cao's help to resist. We should still pacify Gongsun Chan as soon as possible and take Youzhou, only then will we have the strength to march south.

After hearing this, Yuan Shao didn't continue to be angry, but just slapped the table with his hand and shouted: "I'm not angry with Cao Mengde for sitting in Yanzhou, and the high night I'm angry with not only didn't come to return to obedience, but spared no effort to help the eunuch!" ”
