Looking at the Yellow Turban Army kneeling on the ground one by one on the other side, Xun Gang was messy. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info because he really couldn't understand why the Yellow Turban Army, which had the advantage of troops, surrendered so easily?

"Yue Cai, you have led the Yellow Turban Yu Party for many years, why did you surrender so easily today?"

Seeing Xun Gang's inquiry, Yue Cai immediately replied: "It's not a secret, we have long had enough of this wandering life, but we have no choice but to be unsheltered." Now that the young good people are kind, how can we take revenge and regenerate the incident? ”

Xun Gang has never been a rebel, so he naturally doesn't understand the difficulties of these people; But now that everything can be resolved peacefully, that's great.

Xun Gang asked again: "Do you have any disobedient people?" ”

I only listened to the other side, so the soldier replied aloud: "I only want to be a good citizen in this life!" ”

In the face of troubled times, if they do not rise up to resist, they can only starve to death in the wilderness, and they have to choose this path of no return. Now that there is a chance to change their ways, why wouldn't they do it?

"In that case, Yue Cai, you send the 150,000 soldiers and horses to the other side to stop the battle, so as not to cause more casualties!"

By the time they reached another battlefield, the war had already begun for some time, but it was surprising that Cao Cao's 30,000 troops had defeated the 150,000 Yellow Turban troops. If Xun Gang hadn't come in time, I was afraid that after a while, the battle would be nearing the end.

Cao Cao learned that the Yellow Turban Army was willing to surrender, and he was full of regret in his heart, he knew that this was the case, why did he bother so much? Wouldn't it be enough to send a messenger to persuade directly? Now it's okay, Xun Gang, this kid has taken a profit, not only did he not lose a single soldier, but he was afraid that he would put forward some conditions to himself that made people feel bad.

However, what made Cao Cao feel the difference was that Xun Gang not only did not make any excessive requests, but even offered to help him deal with the captives, how could there be such a cheap thing in the world?

You must know that Yanzhou has experienced war and devastation, and the sudden increase in population by one million is also a huge burden for Cao Cao. Although he is now short of troops and extremely greedy for those 300,000 soldiers and horses, he must also do what he can!

The next day, the two sides discussed the matter in the Jibei meeting hall, and Xun Gang immediately said: "Our army defeated the enemy army without a fight, and reduced many casualties for your army, and our army asked for half of the prisoners, 500,000 on each side. ”

Xun Gang simply sat on the ground, he only planned to have a population of 100,000 at the beginning, but under the governance of the past few years, Yuzhou is extremely wealthy, and he can support the cost of 500,000 people. Moreover, the potential strength of a population of 500,000 should not be underestimated, you must know that the population of the entire Yuzhou is only more than 2.7 million!

On the other hand, Cao Cao was ordered to be in danger, and he didn't even take charge of Yanzhou for half a year, and he didn't have time to clean up the mess of Liu Dai, the assassin of the previous session, and there were not many people who could share it......

Xun Gang was originally full of confidence, but he didn't know that Cheng Yu, Cao Cao's subordinate, suddenly attacked, and said extremely toughly: "Our army has suffered heavy losses, and even Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, died in the chaos. Your army has just arrived, so I'm afraid it's unreasonable, right? ”

Guo Jia knew that Cheng Yu was an extremely difficult opponent to deal with, and he was afraid that Xun Gang would suffer a loss at his hands, so he took the initiative to get up and said, "According to Your Excellency, how much is appropriate?" ”

"One hundred thousand!" Cheng Yu said an unacceptable figure, which dropped directly by 400,000.

Guo Jia was not angry, because this was expected: "I think Your Excellency should not be a person who does not understand the rules of diplomacy, and it is really unreasonable to ask for such an excessive downturn...... It is better for both sides to take a step back, and our army only needs 300,000. After that, Guo Jia glanced at Xun Gang, and Xun Gang nodded, because so much was enough.

"No......"

Cheng Yu said halfway, but Cao Cao pressed it. Cao Cao didn't want to tear his face with Xun Gang because of this matter now, after all, he had just ruled Yanzhou and couldn't set up another enemy for the time being. You must know that Tao Qian and Yuan Shu in the south have always been eyeing themselves.

Although he wants all the population, he is afraid that the snake will swallow the elephant and die by himself when the time comes!

"Just 300,000!"

Diplomacy was successful, Xun Gang received three times the expected population, and with the economic support of Yuzhou, the resettlement of these 300,000 people was not a problem at all.

He returned to Chenliu with 320,000 people, placed 100,000 of them in Chenliu, and handed over the affairs of Chenliu to Liang Xi to govern. After that, he returned to Yuzhou, placed the remaining 200,000 yuan in various counties, and after the distribution was completed, he returned to Qian County to live a stable life.

Unexpectedly, when I returned to Qian County, a soldier suddenly came to report: "There is a messenger in Beijing who has arrived and has been waiting for the lord for a long time!" ”

There was an envoy in Beijing? Amazing! Could it be that the envoy sent by Wang Yun let himself enter Chang'an?

"How long have they been waiting?"

"It's been two months!"

Can you really wait......

Xun Gang immediately bathed and changed his clothes, dressed cleanly, and went to the pavilion to visit the envoy in Beijing.

When I entered the building, I saw Xun Yu laughing with another person; That person was none other than his nephew Xun Yu Xun Gongda! Xun Gang was taken aback and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Xun You also saluted and said with a smile: "Xun Gang, I'm waiting for you here so hard!" ”

"What is the Gongda from?"

Xun Yu said: "Two months ago, Wang Yun sent me to Yuzhou to ask for help, and Li Dao Guo Yan attacked Chang'an, and even Lu Bu was not his opponent. Who knew that you actually led troops to Yanzhou to quell the war, you have lost time, Chang'an fell, Wang Situ died and martyred, Lu Wenhou threw himself into Zhang Yang, and Chang'an fell into the hands of Li Dao and other traitors! ”

Xun Gang was shocked, he didn't know that there was such a thing! If he knew that Chang'an was asking for help, how could he go to Yanzhou to quell the rebellion? It's okay now, Liu Xie, who was finally rescued, is now in the hands of traitors!

"Diao Chan...... Gongda, do you know Diao Chan? ”

Hearing Xun Gang mention Diao Chan, Xun You didn't know their feelings, but said indifferently: "Diao Chan has made a meritorious contribution to saving the country, and has married Lu Wenhou, and now he has fled to Zhang Yang's men with him." How? Do you have an old relationship with her? ”

Seeing that this was the end, Xun Gang could only reply perfunctorily: "It's just that I saw it when I went to Chang'an." ”

Xun You didn't want to dwell on this matter, and said: "There is an emperor's edict with you this time, give you this edict, and I can leave." ”

Xun Gang was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Gongda doesn't have to go back to Li Dao's men?" If so, it's better to assist me with Wen Ruo! ”

Xun You smiled bitterly: "I have declared to the imperial court that Shu County is too guarded, but I am afraid that I will not be able to stay; After all, my Xun family, everything is based on the king's order! What's more, Wen Ruozhi is ten times as talented as me, and he is enough! ”

Seeing that he couldn't keep him, Xun Gang moved his gaze to Xun Yu on the side, but Xun Yu shrugged his shoulders and seemed to say, "I said it, but he didn't listen!" ”

Although Xun Gang didn't want to let go of his nephew, this was really a helpless move, who made Xun You so stubborn?

Xun You thanked Xun Gang for his understanding, and took out the imperial edict: "Yuzhou Mu Xun Gang leads the decree to listen to the seal!" ”

Xun Gang and Xun Yu knelt down one after another, but listened to Xun Yu reciting: "The emperor's edict said: Since ancient times, the virtuous and virtuous have been hidden, and the traitors have come out, but I look at it, but it is not true. Yuzhou Mu Xun Gang is loyal and virtuous, is the Han Dynasty Pillar, now the edict of Xun Gang as the Marquis of the county, 8,000 households, the resignation of the rebel general, the post of the former general; Yuzhou pastor can act cheaply, all have the name of the emperor, no need to fold, in order to show the emperor's grace, admiration! ”

"Wechen thank the emperor!"

After the ceremony, Xun Gang took the holy decree and said with a wry smile: "Even if you are promoted to the former general, it is okay for the Pavilion Marquis to become the county marquis." But what does it mean to act cheaply, and everything has the name of the emperor? I don't remember who had such a decree! ”

Xun You puzzled: "The emperor's intention is that whatever you do is famous, and the emperor acquiesces to it!" That is to say, among the princes, you have one more name than them, and you are right! This is more powerful than the power of the False Festival! ”

Wang Yun's ...... Could it be that seeing that I am the emperor's righteous brother, I can't seal it so unknowingly? Aren't you afraid that you will be the target of public criticism?

"But this is Wang Yun's edict, and now that Li Dao is messing with Chang'an, is this edict still effective?"

Xun Yu suddenly said: "I am loyal to the Han, not to Wang Yun and Li Dao; The emperor has not changed, and the edict is naturally valid! ”

That's a very reasonable statement......

Holding the edict, Xun Gang had mixed tastes, and he didn't know that in Chang'an City, thousands of miles away, his emperor brother was okay now?
