Chapter 90: A Cake Falls from Heaven

Tian Chou, the word Zitai, the right Beiping Wuzhongren...... There is no end to the place name.

For the average viewer of the Three Kingdoms, Tian Chou is not a celebrity, and his main deed is to help Cao Cao lead the way once in the twelfth year of Jian'an, so that Cao Cao leveled the Karasuma with the base camp in Liucheng (now Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province) in one fell swoop under the dangerous tactics of the army, and the rest seems to be nothing. After all, compared with characters like Guan Zhangzhao or Wuziliangjiang, Tian Chou really has nothing outstanding in terms of cultural governance or martial arts.

If Lu Ren hadn't crossed over, he wouldn't have been very cold to Tian Chou. To put it mildly, all the values in the game are about seventy, and if you don't put on any more useful stunts, it's just a cold bench life.

But the problem now is that Lu Ren has crossed over, and after years of mixing, Lu Ren has come to the conclusion that you must not underestimate those second-tier or even third-tier characters who are not very famous. Because often when you meet these not very outstanding characters, you will find that these characters are likely to have something extraordinary.

It is precisely for this reason that Lu Ren often pays great attention to this type of character when consulting historical materials. And after taking a closer look, Lu Ren realized that this Tian Chou was actually a not simple character.

In the first year of the first peace, Dong Zhuo hijacked the emperor and moved west to Chang'an, and Tian Chou, who was twenty-two years old at the time, was entrusted by Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou, to Chang'an, and only took more than 20 horsemen, and arrived in Chang'an by taking the dangerous and difficult road of Xiguan and Shuofang, and completed the task excellently; When he returned, because Liu Yu had been killed by Gongsun Zhan, although Tian Chou offended Gongsun Zhan by crying for Liu Yu's funeral, he saved his life, and then hid in Xu Wushan, and then many homeless people came to him, and there were more than 5,000 households in a few years!

Five thousand! If it is calculated according to the three households per household, it is more than 15,000 people, and the current Yizhou town has at least a fight in terms of population base, not to mention that these 5,000 households should be more than three per household.

Moreover, after Tian Chou was elected as the leader, "it is a law that restricts each other from killing, stealing, and litigate, and the law is severe until death." secondly, there are more than 20 articles. It is also a ritual for marriage and marriage, and the industry taught in schools is promoted. The north side of the country obeyed its prestige, Karasuma, Xianbei and each sent an interpreter to pay tribute, and the domain was informed and accepted, and the order was not for the sake of cowardice", which shows that Tian Chou actually has a lot of ability.

But what Lu Ren doesn't understand is here. Because in terms of time. Tian Chou should be living his little life in peace in Xu Wushan at this time, and his land is "Karasuma, Xianbei and each sent an interpreter to pay tribute", in other words, no one dares to trouble him. This little life is peaceful, why did you suddenly come to Yizhou? THINKING OF WHAT SHERRY SAID BEFORE, THE SITUATION IN THE RIGHT BEIPING AREA WAS VERY CHAOTIC, LU REN COULDN'T HELP FROWNING, AND SAID IN HIS HEART, COULD IT BE THAT THE RIGHT BEIPING SIDE HAS REALLY BEEN CHAOTIC TO A CERTAIN EXTENT, SO CHAOTIC THAT TIAN CHOU, A PERSON WITH A BIT OF ABILITY, CAN'T HOLD HIS TERRITORY?

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Ren felt that there was no point in thinking about it here. Anyway, Tian Chou is now in the small city of Yizhou, so it is better to simply ask him to come over and ask what is going on.

――――――――――――――――――――

Lu Ren's residence must be lively now. Thinking about it, everyone knows that it is inconvenient to talk about things at the moment, so Lu Ren asked people to invite Tian Chou to one of his other courtyards in Yizhou.

It is said that Tian Qian is fifty or six years old in Chinese New Year's Eve, and his appearance is medium and so on, but he has the tall figure that a northerner should have. And when I met Lu Ren. Tian Chou's words and deeds are neither humble nor arrogant. In general, it is very worthy of the record of him in historical materials.

However, Tian Chou was actually quite surprised by Lu Ren, because it was hard for him to imagine that Lu Ren, who was in his thirties this year, looked so young. So much so that when he saw Lu Ren for the first time, Tian Chou wondered if he had recognized the wrong person.

Of course, these are just inconsequential trivialities, and Lu Ren and Tian Chou cut to the chase after being polite to each other. And in the face of Lu Ren's question. Tian Chou's response was both helpless and unwilling:

"Lu Servant didn't know anything, and gathered the displaced people in Xu Wushan to form a dock fort, although it was a small momentum, so that some people said that Karasuma and Xianbei did not dare to commit it, but it was just a small tribe that did not have a climate. The real Karasuma clan is tens of thousands of horsemen at every turn, and where can a small Xu Wushan Dock Fort be able to resist it? The reason why Xu Wushan has been safe and sound for many years is mainly because Xu Wushan is quite far away from Liucheng, and we are farming for ourselves, and even if Karasuma Dadan Yu Dun comes to plunder, there is no oil and water to speak of, so he just doesn't have that interest. Otherwise......"

At this point, Tian Chou shook his head, Lu Ren nodded, and said in his heart that this was the case, and it seems that the record of this section in the historical materials is slightly exaggerated.

And Tian Chou continued: "If you can continue to live in peace and security like this, you will be happy when you go down." It's just that since Yuan Shaoguandu's defeat, his two sons didn't know how to get along in harmony to reject Cao Gong, but attacked each other and damaged their arms. And the Yuan family was already with Karasuma, and the two brothers had a dispute over the wall, and Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi actually sent someone to borrow troops from Bandun! Hmph, how did these short-sighted brothers know that doing so is no different from luring a wolf into the house? ”

Tian Chou's words came to this, and Lu Ren generally understood, but he also wondered why Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi ran to ask for help during this period? In the original process, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi borrowed troops from Bundun, but what happened after Yecheng was broken by Lao Cao, is it because he once inserted a foot in it during the battle of Guandu, which caused a certain butterfly effect?

But now that it's here, there's no point in thinking about it. And Tian Chou's words are very clear, Yuan Shang borrowed troops from Karasuma, after these nomads came, they were not like locusts along the way? Tian Chou's Xu Wushan Dock Fort was at the hands of these locust-like Karasuma cavalry. Although there is still a certain amount of self-preservation power in the near future, if you don't find another way out as soon as possible, it will only be a matter of time before you are trampled by those Karasuma nomads.

With such a prerequisite, it is somewhat logical that Tian Chou will appear in Yizhou. The small town of Yizhou in Luren has a Lianyungang gt; Jiaodong Peninsula gt; Right Beiping gt; Liaodong's "again" shaped route, and this route in addition to getting some needed goods for the small city of Yizhou, there is also a very important significance is to take advantage of the war between Cao Cao and several sons of the Yuan family, as much as possible to absorb as many refugees who fled the war as possible to Yizhou to enrich the population of Yizhou.

The distance between Youbeiping and Xu Wushan is not too far, and Xu Wushan Wuwu Fort has to buy some daily necessities or something after the population is slightly larger, so it is directly or indirectly related to the commercial wharf of Yizhou Town in Youbeiping. After a little time, Tian Chou will of course hear something about the small town of Yizhou.

Lu Ren's name also played a very key role at this time, you must know that when Lu Ren was an official under Cao Cao in his early years, he became famous for his ability to settle displaced people and develop production. With such a name in the background, Tian Chou certainly has reason to believe that the small town of Yizhou that Lu Ren made will be a good place for Qingning and stability.

Anyway, Xu Wushan is now a little precarious under the scourge of the Karasuma cavalry, and he can't see any other way out in a short time, so it is better to follow the fleet to Yizhou to have a look. If the rumors are true, Tian Chou is ready to move all the people from Xu Wushan to Yizhou in Lu Ren...... These are the main reasons why Tian Chou will appear in Yizhou at this time. And based on Tian Chou's observations here in the small city of Yizhou during this time, the final conclusion is just two words: admire! Therefore, it also strengthened the confidence to move all the residents on the other side of Xu Wushan to Yizhou.

After Lu Ren listened to Tian Chou's story, his palms were sweating. But it's not a sweat of nervousness or fear, it's a secret excitement. The biggest flaw in the small city of Yizhou is that the population base is too small, so far only more than 20,000 nods, after all, it is not easy to absorb a large number of displaced people who are willing to move on their own in this era.

Like the "again" shaped route mentioned earlier, each voyage is about three months long, and one trip can bring back hundreds of displaced people in Yizhou...... Of course, this is also related to the fact that Yizhou's current shipping capacity is still relatively limited. But if the fleet currently held by Lu Ren is really working at full strength, it will be no problem to transport about 5,000 people in one trip. Even if you stuff people into the cabin without asking, like the slave trade in the Age of Discovery, then seven or eight thousand people may be able to fit it, but under normal circumstances, how can so many displaced people take the initiative to board the ship to Yizhou? Rob? Lu Ren doesn't have the courage for the time being.

But isn't Tian Chou just sending people now? According to the exact figures given by Tian Chou, there are currently more than 6,000 households in Xu Wushanwu Fort in Tian Chou, and the actual population is about 30,000, which is more than the current population of Yizhou City. Moreover, these people have been trained by Tian Chou...... It's not that kind of training, anyway, these more than 30,000 people have a good population quality, and I believe there will be no problems in management and scheduling, and besides, isn't there a Tian Chou who will help around?

As for whether Tian Chou will be a noisy guest, Lu Ren has no worries. You must know that Tian Chou's virtue and ethics are admired even by Cao Cao, and these are clearly recorded in historical materials.

In short, such a big cake is delivered to your mouth, should you open your mouth wide and swallow it in one gulp? Lu Ren's conclusion is not to swallow anything? At least for now, such an opportunity is quite rare. And once this cake is swallowed, the population of Yizhou small city can directly more than double, reaching nearly 50,000 or nearly 60,000. And such a number was already the standard of an ordinary large county at that time. And the most important thing is that after the population increases and the strength rises, Lu Ren will have more human resources to do more things, and the snowball will be able to roll bigger and bigger...... (To be continued.) )
