Guo Jia sacrificed wine for the military advisor and assisted in the management of the remaining thousands of swords, guns, archers and other food protection teams. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Shun was the commander of the scouts, commanding three thousand scouts and all the cavalry.

In these five divisions, the cavalry has tiger guards, personal guards, archers and scouts, nearly 20,000 people.

There were less than 10,000 infantry and 5,000 sailors.

After the division is completed, what Yuan Yao has to wait for is to return to Pingyu.

Because Yuan Shao has eliminated Gongsun Zhan, he may soon attack south, and Liu Biao may also break the contract at any time and launch a crazy counterattack! Once Yuzhou was lost, the emperor was robbed, and the consequences were unimaginable.

……

The first year of Jianping, May 18

Yuan Yao returned from New Baekje with 30,000 elites, nearly 100,000 fine northern war horses, tens of thousands of captured female slaves, and a large amount of money and grain, and arrived in Qingzhou.

Zang Ba came to greet him, and Yuan Yao left Zang Ba with 10,000 war horses and 10,000 female slaves.

May 23

Arriving in Xuzhou, Lü Fan greeted him, and Yuan Yao also left Lü Fan with 10,000 war horses and 10,000 female slaves, telling him to develop the population well and pay attention to agriculture.

May 25

Arrive at Xiapi

Cao Yanran's father, one of Yuan Yao's fathers-in-law, Cao Bao, came to greet him, and Yuan Yao also left 10,000 war horses, but the female slave only left 5,000.

The five thousand female slaves were still insisted on by Yuan Yao to stay, and Cao Bao didn't want to accept them at first.

At the same time, in order to appear fair, in front of Cao Bao, Yuan Yao sent Xu Zhu to lead the Tiger Guard cavalry, escorting 20,000 war horses and 10,000 female slaves, to Yanzhou Mu Lu Bu.

May 28

Arriving in Shouchun, Beiyangzhou Mu Zhoucang came to greet him.

Yuan Yao laughed and said, "Second brother Yuanfu, the eldest brother has a gift for you!" This time, the eldest brother won a big victory in the north and got countless war horses, this is 10,000 selected excellent war horses, given to you, I hope you can train a cavalry well! ”

Zhou Cang was overjoyed, gave Yuan Yao a hug, and said excitedly: "Big brother, I don't lack anything in Beiyangzhou, but I lack horses!" I got the 20,000 war horses of the eldest brother, and when my cavalry training was completed, I was the first to help the eldest brother capture Liu Biao and come back! ! ”

"Well done! Second brother, eldest brother has another courtesy! Yuan Yao whispered: "I selected 10,000 female slaves to give to you, you are blessed, among these female slaves there are female slaves and female Lou people in the north, you don't have to care about their rights, if you can give birth to a son and a half daughter, you can be promoted to the status of a pariah, if you can't, whatever you want!" ”

Zhou Cang said with a bitter face: "Big brother, there is no shortage of women in Yangzhou, and there is no shortage of beauties!" ”

"It's not lacking, it's not good, you must take it! It's the mission! ”

"Alright! Eldest brother! ”

May 30th

After walking to Ruyin, Guo Jiajin said: "Lord, Sun Ce is also short of war horses in the south, if the lord favors one over the other, it may cause Sun Ce's dissatisfaction, it is better to give him some war horses, and reduce the war horses, we can save more grain and grass." ”

Yuan Yao followed his words and sent 10,000 war horses and 10,000 female slaves.

At this point, all the female slaves were sent, leaving only money, grain, and 50,000 war horses.

And of these 50,000 war horses, Yuan Yao's own army will use 20,000 war horses, and only 30,000 are redundant.

Yuan Yao thought to himself: "Second brother Chen is now fighting against the Xiliang army on the battlefield at the forefront, and he is short of war horses, but women still forget it, Si Lizhou is now short of food, so don't send female slaves, and besides, I don't have any female slaves to send now, so let's double the war horses, with 20,000 war horses to help, I will be able to quickly turn around the battlefield in Xiliang!" ”

June 5th

It's already very hot

Yuan Yao finally rushed back to Pingyu and ordered the army to be stationed in Pingyu's east, west, north and south.

The Dragons were stationed in the Lake of Joux and trained daily in the water, and the archers and iron cavalry were in the northern woods to practice the cavalry's ability to fight in the woods.

Of the remaining 30,000 war horses, Xu Zhu, who had returned 20,000 of them, led the tiger guards to ride and deliver the horses to Chen Zhi.

The last 10,000, 5,000 points were given to his father Yuan Shu, and 5,000 points were given to his father-in-law Gong Du.

……

After Xu Shu saw Yuan Yao, his expression was solemn: "Lord, since the summer, the plague in Yuzhou has begun to break out in a large area, fortunately, there is a pre-prepared exorcism of the plague, which saved most of their lives and brought the epidemic under control, but this plague also brought more than 15,000 deaths, and behind these more than 15,000 people are nearly 10,000 families!" Now that these families are in trouble, what can we do? ”

Yuan Yao nodded and asked, "Yuan Zhi, how is the drought situation now?" How long does food last? ”

"The drought is very serious, but fortunately, there is a water storage in Ruhu Lake, and the people's daily water supply can basically be satisfied! However, the grain production has been seriously reduced, and even if the grain you brought back from the north is relieved, it will not support next year! Xu Shu said.

"How so? Didn't you say you could support next year? Yuan Yao asked in surprise, "Now that I have left more than 100,000 troops in the north and brought back grain, why can I only support it until next year?" ”

"Don't worry, lord, it's like this!!"

"In the past six months, although it has been known that there is a drought in Yuzhou, the people are still willing to move to Yuzhou, according to the spies, this is because the people are afraid of war, thinking that only on your territory, is the safest, under this idea, nearly 100,000 people have poured in from other places!"

"In addition, the tens of thousands of war horses you brought back can't just eat grass, they also have to eat a lot of fine grain!"

"Last but not least, we can't eat all the food, we have to leave enough seeds behind!" Xu Shu said.

"Hmmm! I see, fortunately, I sent most of the war horses and slave girls out in time, otherwise the food consumption would be even greater! Yuan Yao nodded.

"The lord is wise, if there are really 100,000 war horses in Pingyu, I am afraid that it will not take three months to be able to empty Pingyu's stockpile!" Xu Shu said.

Yuan Yao nodded and thought about it.

What is now facing Yuzhou is mainly the problem of grain.

Although the people kept coming to Yuzhou, Yuan Yao did not intend to close Yuzhou and keep the people out, he could only find a solution to the problem.

Historically, the reason why Liu Bei was able to achieve Yizhou was precisely because of a large number of Dongzhou soldiers!

The Dongzhou soldiers were composed of people who fled south to Jingzhou in order to avoid war in the area of Luoyang and Chang'an, as well as Yunzhou, Yuzhou and Xuzhou.

Now because Yuan Yao has achieved good results in governing Yuzhou, and the emperor has ushered in peace, Yuzhou has replaced Jingzhou's stable position.

It is also true that since Yuan Yao unified Yuzhou, there has only been a foreign war, no civil war!

The people who were forced to leave their hometowns were willing to return, how could Yuan Yao go against this kind of thing that conformed to the will of the people.

"Yuanzhi, I already have two solutions!!" Yuan Yao suddenly remembered the Sect of All Beings, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.

If we can make use of the Sect of All Beings, we can not only further expand the influence of the Sect of All Beings, but also actually solve the problems of some people who are in trouble in their lives, and may also attract some people from Jingzhou to Jiaozhou instead of Yuzhou! This may be conducive to the de-barbarization of Jiaozhou! (To be continued.) )
