Cao Ang asked, "Where is this person, let's hear it!" ”

In ancient times, it was the population that fought a war, and only when there was a population could there be food and an army could be raised. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Otherwise, every time Liu Bei escaped, he wouldn't forget to take all the people nearby.

Cheng Yu said with a smile: "This person is from the Yingchuan clan, and he had the idea of defecting to the lord before, and now he is in the army. ”

"Oh, get him here." Cao Ang said anxiously, it is a great achievement to be able to let so many people live and work in peace and contentment.

Soon, Cheng Yu called someone from the army, who was dressed in Confucian clothes, with two thick beards, and his eyes looked bright.

"Zao has only seen the lord!" Zao Yi bowed and said respectfully.

"Hurry up and excuse me, please take a seat!" Cao Ang looked at Zao Yi with joy, and his heart felt a heart of love.

"Thank you, lord!" Zao Yu looked around, and then bowed down and sat next to Xun Yu.

"Where are you from?" Cao Ang asked eagerly with a smile on his face. The person recommended by Cheng Yu should not be much worse.

"The small one was originally Dong Aling, not far from here. After Dong'e was occupied by the Yellow Turban Thieves, I escaped, and when I heard that the officers and soldiers were coming, I risked my life to be like-minded, but fortunately I met Cheng Junshi to take me in. "Zao Yu is not stage frightened at all.

"I heard that you have a strategy to stabilize the country?" Cao Ang quickly had a bottom in his heart, he was born as an official, and he spoke very calmly, and he should have seen a lot of big scenes.

"I don't dare to be a stable country, but I feel that once it is implemented, it can ensure that the country is rich and the people are strong.

My suggestion is to settle the fields, and the government should provide land, farming tools, seeds, and cattle, and encourage the people to reclaim wasteland to solve the food problem.

The reason why the yellow turban thieves rose up is not because the people are not living well, and the officials force the people to rebel. Therefore, we nationalized the barren farmland and recruited the exiled people to come to the farmland, and the harvest was divided between the state and the people of the farmland. ”

"That's a clever plan!" When Cao Ang heard this, he was instantly excited. The reason why Cao Cao was able to gain a firm foothold in the north was not only due to the army, but also to the famous Tuntian system.

In fact, Zaoyi's tuntian system began in the earlier Juntun. During the Western Han Dynasty, due to the difficulty of transportation, most of the grain would be consumed when it was transported to the frontier, so during the period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the army implemented tuntian, with hundreds of field soldiers to solve the needs of the frontier army.

Zaoyi's tuntian system has jumped out of the category of military tun and has become a mintun. After all, the army is a minority, and the people are the majority, and once the people are set up, it can not only solve the livelihood of the displaced people, but also become a source of money and food for the state, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"My lord, but I have something to ask for!" Zao Yi saw that Cao Ang was happy, and continued.

"Tell me about it." Cao Ang motioned for Zao Yi to continue.

"Our Chinese people are basically obedient, and as long as there is a bite to eat, they will not rise up and resist. Therefore, if tuntian is implemented, I don't think the people can be squeezed too harshly. Otherwise, it will not attract more displaced people to come and farm. ”

Zao's words did express his concern, if the people worked hard for a year, but found that the harvest they got could only be used for food, the tuntian system would definitely not be developed for a long time.

"Six, four. Are you satisfied with this number? Cao Ang understood what Zao Yi meant, and he knew that only by benefiting the people and letting them know that they could harvest something, could they attract more displaced people to come and farm.

"Huh? Thank you, Lord. The official six people are four, and this division is still good. In addition to their own food, the people of Tuntian can also leave a part of the stored grain. Zao Yi nodded with satisfaction, and his heart strengthened his confidence in defecting to Cao Ang.

"No, I'm talking about the four officials and the six people." Cao Ang looked at Zao Yi with a smile: "In this way, the effect will be more obvious." The people of Tuntian have harvested, and more displaced people will come from afar, and Tuntian will play a greater role. ”

"The lord is wise!" Jujube praised.

"The lord is wise." Cheng Yu praised again and again, the jujube he recommended was only meritorious, and he followed suit.

"Zaoyi, from now on, I will order you to be the captain of Tuntian, responsible for the affairs of Tuntian around Jinan, are you willing?" Cao Ang made a decision immediately and gave Zao Yi a verbal guarantee.

"Thank you, lord!" Zao Yi knew that this Tuntian lieutenant was not simple, and once Jinan Tuntian succeeded, as Cao Ang's territory became bigger and bigger, his own official position would also get bigger and bigger.

"The matter of Tuntian is so decided!" Cao Ang continued: "Which general is willing to take Jinan City for me?" ”

"Lord, the clouds are willing to go." Zhao Yun was the first to say: "I haven't been in the army for a long time, and I am in a high position without an inch of merit, which is really inappropriate. Please give Zilong this opportunity. ”

Due to the lack of bows and arrows, the White Crane Army has not completely transformed into an army of archers, and it will take some time. Therefore, if Zhao Yun wants to attack the city, he can still do it.

"Okay, Jinan City will be handed over to you. Success, not failure. Cao Ang saw that Zhao Yun was so brave, so he should come down: "Liao Hua, how is your first deceased soldier recovering?" ”

"If you return to the lord, you have replenished the soldiers and are ready to go to battle at any time." Liao Hua said confidently, listening to the meaning of Cao Ang's words, he should be ready to let him fight again.

"Good! You go out with General Zhao and listen to his orders. Cao Ang was a little uneasy, after all, Zhao Yun led the army to attack the city for the first time, if there was no strong assault force, in case of failure, it would put his own army in a passive position.

"Whoa!" Liao Hua was overjoyed when he heard the battle, and responded loudly.

Cao Ang asked Cheng Yu and Xun Yu again: "Two military advisors, I want to choose a feng shui treasure in Jinan to bury my father, I don't know what to learn?" ”

Cheng Yu didn't speak, Xun Yu spoke up: "I heard that there is a spring in Jinan, which has been gushing out of clear and living water for many years, called Baotu Spring, with Qianfo Mountain in the south and Daming Lake in the north, which is a good feng shui treasure land." ”

"I'll leave the matter to you!" Cao Ang stood up and bowed.

"Don't dare to be!" Xun Yu hurriedly got up and saluted.

Zhao Yun and Liao Hua disguised themselves as the remnants of the defeated Yellow Turban Army and marched towards Jinan City.

The main force of Cao's army pressed the grain and grass and nearly 100,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, and began to walk over in a mighty way.

Jinan City.

Xu He, as the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, was alone in the city lord's mansion, and he was a little depressed.

The reason is very simple, a few days ago, Bian Xi, who was also the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, passed by Jinan, rested in the city for one night, and informed him of an important news.

Bu Ji's 300,000 Yanzhou Yellow Turban Army encountered the powerful Cao Ang and his army, and was defeated at Shouzhang, almost completely annihilated, and the situation was very dangerous.

If Cao Angruo defeated Shouzhang, it is very likely that he will extend his hand to Jinan City.

He only had 20,000 defenders in the city, so he sent people to ask Sima Ju stationed in Le'an, Qingzhou, for help.

In addition, he sent additional men to the city and prepared some equipment to defend the city, and Cao Ang had to pay the price of blood first if he wanted to move himself.
