Chapter 259: Snow Disaster
In the New Year of Jian'an's fourth year, the idea of giving Lu Ye is of course very different from the usual, at least the extra old lady and little slave in the family members have given Lu Ye a lot of surprises. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Some time after the New Year, Qi Yifan also came here to visit.
The relationship between Lu Ye and Qi Yifan is also very deep, just like an old friend who has been separated for many years, Qi Yifan will tell Lu Ye some things in the Fish and Dragon Gang, and let Lu Ye help analyze and analyze.
Lu Ye naturally didn't hide his secrets, and these things were also very refreshing to share with Qi Yifan.
……
……
In the first two days of the New Year, Lu Ye was very busy and went to many places. But in the following days, Lu Ye became idle.
In the past few days, the homes of those civil ministers and military generals in Xu Ducheng, whether they are familiar or unfamiliar, Lu Ye has brought things, and followed Cao Zhen and the two of them to visit all over again.
But there are also a few people, Lu Ye and Cao Zhen cast a net all over the sky, and finally missed a few.
Cao Zhen was very arrogant, and he didn't show any other thoughts about the few people that Lu Ye had missed. As for outsiders, I don't know what Lu Ye has been busy with during this time.
But Lu Ye himself knows it.
There weren't too many officials Lu Ye didn't go to, just five or six people. In addition, those who Lu Ye had an impression in his mind basically went to visit.
Those who didn't visit, one of them was called Liu Bei, and another was called Cheng Yu.
Lu Ye didn't visit Liu Bei because Lu Ye knew what Liu Bei would do in the future, and it wasn't necessarily a wise move to be good friends with Liu Bei at this time.
And Cheng Yu, sooner or later there will be a life-and-death fight between Lu Ye and him, what kind of mentality does it have to be with Cheng Yu at this time?
Although Lu Ye also knew in his heart that if he became good friends with Cheng Yu, maybe it would be much easier to do many things in the future, but Lu Ye never had the ability to let his heart pass that hurdle.
The blood is deep, and it is impossible not to revenge.
Some of the news he got from those people also let Lu Ye know the huge impact that this heavy snow had on the Kanto and Guanzhong regions.
Fortunately, although the road was closed by heavy snow, Cao Cao sent a lot of troops to clear it in time, so the official road was unblocked, and a lot of news over there finally reached Xudu City in time.
But beyond that, there are some places where the situation is not so simple. Tens of thousands of houses collapsed under the heavy snowfall. Hundreds of thousands of displaced people were homeless on the occasion of the Chinese New Year, and Lu Ye went to Xun Yu's mansion several times, and all he saw was Xun Yu frowning, constantly reading the documents passed down below.
Obviously, the situation is not as simple as Lu Ye thought.
Cao Cao's territory is so large now, if the disaster is too serious, the plan for the coming year will definitely be greatly hindered.
What does Cao Cao want to do in the coming year?
The usefulness of popularity can be reflected here, if Lu Ye in the past, if he wanted to know such a private matter, it would take a lot of effort, but this time it was different, so many battlefield veterans, some things that were unintentionally revealed at the dinner table let Lu Ye know a lot.
The battle of Guandu may be about to begin.
Don't look at the current Yuan Shao is still the general of the Han Emperor, but a battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is inevitable. The territory owned by the two is so large, how can the side of the couch allow others to sleep soundly?
It won't be a surprise to see who of the two sides is going to do it.
Cao Cao is eloquent, of course, it is impossible to ignore such a thing, and at this time, he is also starting to arrange some things, I just hope that once Yuan Shao makes a move, he will not be caught off guard.
Lu Ye recalled vigorously in his mind the specific time when the Battle of Guandu broke out and what the cause and effect were. But in the end, he shook his head helplessly.
"The impact of this snow disaster is too great......
"Originally, the area around Yuzhou and Sili was not very stable, but now such a heavy snow is coming, and there is no way to do many things at all." Of course, the only one who can talk to Lu Ye about these things is Cao Zhen.
Lu Ye sat opposite Cao Zhen, looking a little unenergetic.
Talking to Cao Zhen about these things, where will there be any spirit.
"The area covered by this heavy snow is really too big, and now hundreds of thousands of victims are crowded towards Xu Ducheng, don't you see Xun Lingjun's busy appearance a few days ago......."
"I don't know when we'll be able to resolve this matter."
Lu Ye shook his head slightly: "This is a natural disaster, and it is not something that can be resisted by manpower." What needs to be done now is to quickly resettle all the victims. Take precautions to avoid an outbreak of plague when the time comes. ”
But then Lu Ye thought back slightly in his mind, in the north in winter, it was still difficult to break out a large-scale plague.
But once spring begins, if the plague breaks out, it will be out of control.
"It's easy to say, hundreds of thousands of victims, how can it be solved at once?" Cao Zhen is obviously a little anxious these days.
"Is there no money in the treasury?" Lu Ye asked.
Cao Zhen rolled his eyes angrily: "Of course there is money in the treasury, but what's the use of having money at this time?" What is needed is food, a lot of food. Not to mention whether you can buy food, even if you can buy it, can you transport it? ”
"Heavy snow blocking the road, you think it's just for fun?" Cao Zhendao.
Lu Ye nodded: "That's the truth...... But if I'm not mistaken, there should still be grain in the Taiping. I remember that just a month ago, Xun Lingjun used papermaking to sell the money, but in the end he didn't collect so much, and some families used food to deduct it. ”
Cao Zhen said: "Are you crazy? That's military rations! How can it move? ”
"Human life is at stake, do you care whether military food is military food or not? When the seeds are planted in spring, a large amount of grain will be fed back immediately. Two months before and after the beginning of spring, where will a large-scale war break out? Lu Ye asked rhetorically.
Cao Zhen was stunned: "Why didn't there be a large-scale war two months before and after the beginning of spring?" ”
Lu Ye rolled his eyes: "Only we need to sow seeds?" ”
Since Cao Cao implemented the tuntian system, in fact, the grain output under Cao Cao has been very high, but there is no way, and he has been fighting for many years.
Since the first year of Jian'an, Cao Cao's territory has been surrounded by four wars, and there are constant wars every year. It's hard to get a break.
