Chapter 134: Wen Hou Comes
Feng Yao had no interest in these slaves, but when he turned his head, he saw Gong Ming, who was sitting alone on the stone on the side, a little sullen. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Brother Ming, why are you sitting here alone! Did something happen? Feng Yao walked over and asked.
Gong Ming raised his head and saw that it was Feng Yao, so he shook his head and said, "Brother-in-law, they don't play with me." β
Feng Yao said: "Do you mean the Thirteen Righteousness? β
"Yes! They all keep practicing martial arts or something, and I won't do those, calling them to play marbles with me, and no one pays attention to me! Gong Ming said aggrievedly.
At this time, Gong Yinglian also came over and asked Gong Mingdao, "Brother, what's wrong with you?" β
After Gong Ming gave the same answer, Feng Yao couldn't say anything, so he could only comfort: "Brother Ming, when the academy opens, why don't you go to study!" β
Gong Yinglian said: "Brother, let's eat first, after eating, my sister will teach you to ride a horse!" β
Gong Ming immediately laughed and said happily: "Okay, okay!" Horseback riding! He shouted and went to his nurse.
"Husband, Ming'er has been weak since she was a child and doesn't like to practice martial arts, but she likes to read very much, and she especially likes the kind of heroes who ride tall horses in the book!" Gong Yinglian said softly.
After lunch, Feng Yao came to his Zhongjun tent, and Yang Wu had been waiting for a long time, and immediately presented the battle report of Pingyu City, as well as all kinds of information collected by the scouts.
Feng Yao first looked at the scout's information.
Most of them are some bland information, which has been sorted out by Liu Shun, but Feng Yao is more concerned about some major matters now. For example, Chen Guo's war, Li Tong's movements, and Yingchuan's movements. In addition, the news of Liu Bei in Xuzhou and Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao in Yanzhou, which are now far away, will be put aside for the time being.
Liu Bei was accumulating troops, Yuan Shao fought on many sides, fought with Gongsun Zan in the north, fought with Zhang Yan of the Montenegrin Army in the west, and fought in the north of Chenliu to fight with Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao in the south, and occupied Fengqiu County in Chenliu County. In the east, it broke through LΓΌ Bu's west village. Arrived at the foot of Puyang City, echoed with Cao Cao's army, and wanted to take Puyang City!
Cao Cao's soldiers were divided into three routes. The east has recovered Mount Tai, Jibei, Lu, Rencheng. and other counties.
Feng Yao looked at it. sighed, remembering the days when Xizhai was built in Lu Bu's army, and I had some feelings for Xizhai somewhat, but I didn't want to be broken by Yuan Shao today!!
"It seems that the strength is the most important, the attack is the most important, Xizhai has spent so much effort to build, although it blocked Cao Cao's attack, it still did not block Yuan Shao's attack!!" Feng Yao said in his heart.
Open the battle report again. Looking at it one by one, Feng Yao couldn't help but be overjoyed. The Yellow Turban Army really gave a big gift, in the past few months, the money and food plundered by the Yellow Turban Army in various places have almost filled the warehouses of Pingyu City!!
In this battle, our army lost a total of 800 soldiers, and the surrendered Yellow Turbans lost 5,000 people during the counterattack in the city, and the enemy lost more than 3,000 deaths!!
After capturing Pingyu City, except for a few hundreds of enemy soldiers who fled, almost all of the rest surrendered to Feng Yao, in Feng Yao's eyes, only by using the population of the Yellow Turban Army as soon as possible could it develop.
The city was plagued by countless minor wounded, and the number of seriously wounded reached more than 6,000, and even if they were cured, most of them were not fit to go back to war.
Before the attack, Feng Yao had 36,000 people and the Yellow Turban Army had 30,000 people, a total of 66,000 people, and after the war, the total number of killed was nearly 9,000 and 6,000 were wounded, so now Feng Yao's total strength is actually more than 50,000, nearly 51,000 people, of which the number of elite soldiers has reached 20,000.
Nearly fifty war horses from the Yellow Turban Army were obtained, plus Feng Yao's own, there were a total of two hundred and thirty war horses.
He received 500 million copper coins, 23,500,000 taels of silver, 4,800 taels of gold, and countless other jewels and pearls.
More than 1,500,000 stone of corn and about 1,000,000 stone of wheat. This grain can feed more than 50,000 troops for more than three years, and if you don't count the rewards, even if you count the money of the county officials, it is enough to feed 50,000 people for about two years.
These grains made Feng Yao feel at ease, and decided to recruit another batch of reserve soldiers, who could enlist in the army at the age of fourteen and train for two years first!
After the war of the Yellow Turban, many people have either become Yellow Turbans or have been recruited, even if they are recruited again, it is difficult to recruit thousands of people in each county, and most of them can only be used as miscellaneous servants! Too much conscription will lead to a decrease in agricultural production capacity, and next year's grain harvest will fail.
The generals who surrendered in the Yellow Turban Army were weak, and basically after surrendering, they could only be a tribal governor, but Wang Hu was an exception, not only with high ability, but also with the great merit of beheading Liu Pi and leading the army to return to obedience, Feng Yao had decided to make him a captain, and when everything in the city was decided tomorrow, he would be promoted to a lieutenant and officially promoted to captain.
After reading these battle reports, Feng Yao already had a bottom in his heart, if he wanted to expand Pingyu City, most of the materials did not need to cost money, and they were mainly practical, and the materials that cost money did not cost much, and the main expenditure was still in the labor aspect, if 100,000 people were recruited to build the city, 300 yuan per person per month, it would be almost completed in three months, and there would be a million dollars. Coupled with several major buildings, one is one million copper coins, and it doesn't cost ten million copper coins to build a few barracks and several large courtyards!
This is still Feng Yao's desire to improve the lives of the people and buy the hearts of the people, in fact, Feng Yao can completely avoid spending labor costs, just levy and issue forced labor, and forcibly order the people in the jurisdiction to serve in labor.
In the afternoon, Feng Yao's Chinese military tent ushered in a person, Lu Bu once again sent his assistant Geng Liang over, when he saw his old acquaintance, Geng Liang first congratulated Feng Yao on his great victory and recovered all Runan, and then conveyed Lu Bu's request for help to Feng Yao! I hope that Feng Yao can send troops to relieve the siege of Chen Liu.
Feng Yao said: "Envoy Geng, if you are not busy, I hope you can stay for a few more days, Pingyu City has just been captured, and the army is relatively chaotic, I think the army will be organized in the next few days, and then set off, then you can also bring back an answer that can satisfy Wen Hou!" β
Geng Liang nodded and said, "What Feng Fujun said is extremely true, it should be so, and it just so happens that I also want to visit Feng Fujun's army!" β
Feng Yao said with a smile: "I'm afraid that I will make Geng Zuo's envoy laugh, although I lead a lot of troops, but most of them are not well trained, if you want to see it, when I have established the army, I will lead you to the camp for a walk!" β
Geng Liang also smiled: "So good! However, there is one more thing that Geng Liang wants to ask! β
"What?" Feng Yao asked.
"I heard that Feng Fujun recently married another wife? Is there such a thing? Geng Liang said.
"Hmmm! But he ordered another family affair and did not marry into the family, Brother Geng, don't misunderstand! And it's only a second wife. Feng Yao smiled, but he tightened his heart, and said secretly: "Even Geng Liang knows about this, I don't know if Lu Bu also knows, it seems that this matter has to be stepped up, and when Wenhou's position in Yanzhou is firmly seated, I am afraid that he will regret it!" β
Seeing Feng Yao say this, Geng Liang let out a sigh of relief, patted Feng Yao's shoulder, and said with a hearty smile: "So that's the case, that's fine, it's okay for a man to have three wives and four concubines, as long as I still abide by the previous marriage contract, I will let go of my heart, or I'm really worried about being scolded by Wen Hou when I go back!"
