Chapter 98: Cao Cao's flickering
Cao Cao, with the help of the army of another world, tripled the territory in two months, and the people of the newly won territory fled one after another, so Cao Cao could only let the army block the border and prevent the people from leaving.
Then these intercepted people were gathered in one place, and fireworks began to be set off at night, because no one in this world had ever seen fireworks, so the people thought it was a miracle, and finally there was a sentence: Cao Cao, the chosen one......
Although most of the people don't know how to read, there are still some disciples from the poor sect who interpret this sentence, and those who know words confirm it, and most of the people are willing to believe it.
The next day, Cao Cao announced a series of policies for everyone to return to their hometowns, and when these people returned home, they did see officials coming to measure the land and census the population.
After a few more days, the land really began to be distributed, and with the previous layout of Ji Cheng, the people began to accept Cao Cao, and the spies of the other princes lurking here could no longer incite these people.
The people get the exact benefits, no matter how you say it, Cao Jun did not rob them of their money and food, but also helped them build rent, this is their personal feelings, you say that Cao Cao is bad and the people will not believe it.
Half a year later, the grain harvest was bumper, and the tax revenue really did not increase, several times less than when it was ruled by other princes. In addition, in the past six months, Cao Cao paid them to help with the cultivation academy and let the children of the people study for free, and the people completely returned to their hearts.
Cao Cao once again called all the military attachΓ©s and strategists over to the people, and it was time for the people to expand after they joined the night.
Guo Jia: "My lord, I don't think this is the time for expansion, although the people are attached now, our forces are limited, and the people in other places are still kept in the dark, according to the spies reported to other princes to smear the lord, saying that the lord slaughtered millions of people. They all think that the lord is a demon, and if we fight at this time, even if we take the city, we will be assassinated by the local people. β
Xi Zhicai: "In addition to the misunderstanding of us by the people, there are also those soldiers who hate us to the core, those princes don't know where to find a prescription that can stimulate the potential of the human body, not afraid of pain, if we attack them, we will definitely suffer heavy losses." So we can't expand our territory at this time. β
Xun Yu: "My lord, what we need to do now is to let the people dispel the misunderstanding of us, now that we have enough paper to print newspapers, we can scatter these papers in the territory of Zhuhou, so that their people know that we are not demons." β
Cao Cao has been in retreat for half a year, he has exchanged a book of cultivation exercises, and some spirit stones, now it is the early stage of Qi training, and with the spiritual energy to wash the body, I feel that the whole person is much more relaxed, and it is better than the physique when I was at my peak.
Because of the retreat, he didn't know what had happened in the past six months, only that the people had been attached.
Cao Cao: "In that case, then let's wait for a while, as for how to send the newspaper over, do you have a way?" β
Xun Yu: "I've already thought that we can use big kites to send our people into the air, and then scatter the newspapers. We also made a hot air balloon, which you can send people to ......."
Cao Cao: "The Air Force has been successfully trained?" β
Xun Yu: "The training has been successful, General Cao Hong is in charge of the training, and he has tried it half a month ago, and he can completely control it." β
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Haha, okay, in that case, you can do it!" When I win the entire Han Dynasty, I will be rewarded, and the one with the most credit can cultivate immortals like me. β
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he condensed a small fireball and threw it in front of everyone, and the fireball burned again after it landed......
The people present were shocked in their hearts, and they looked at Cao Cao incredulously, with eagerness in their eyes, Cao Cao said with a smile: "I got the immortal cultivation method rewarded by the group master, and after half a year of retreat, I finally broke through a small realm, and after the breakthrough, I feel that my life expectancy has increased, my physique has become better, and my strength has also increased a lot."
As long as I break through two more small realms, I can fly a certain distance in the air, and if I break through one more big realm, I can fly in the void, and it is not difficult to take people's heads thousands of miles away.
It's a pity that not everyone can practice the immortal exercises, they must have spiritual roots, and they must have enough merit in their bodies, and the group leader only gave me five places. So not everyone can cultivate immortals at that time, but each of you will also have opportunities, and I hope you can take advantage of it. β
"Congratulations to the lord, I wish the lord to become an immortal as soon as possible, we will do our best to assist the lord, and we will never let the lord down." A group of civil servants, military generals and strategists came out at the same time, knelt down on one knee and said to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao: "Get up." Without your help, I wouldn't be where I am today, so no matter whether you can cultivate immortals in the future, I won't treat you badly, and I will give the group some longevity pills to make you immortal. If you can ascend, I will find a way to let you also cultivate immortals in the future, and I hope you will not be jealous of others because you can't cultivate immortals for the time being. β
Guo Jia: "Don't worry, my lord, I won't wait for civil strife." β
Xi Zhicai: "We are not waiting for the auxiliary lord to cultivate immortals, it is better to be able to cultivate immortals, even if we can't, we won't be angry." β
Xun Yu: "Even if we can't cultivate immortals, we can live a long life, which is already very good for us." So we don't envy others because we don't have a fairy fate! β
The others also echoed, but the people present all hoped that they could get the immortal fate, and they had secretly decided to make more meritorious contributions and fight for this immortal fate.
Cao Cao: "I believe that you will not let me down, but if I don't let you compete, you will definitely not accept it, so I will not stop you from competing, but I hope that you are healthy competition, not vicious competition, secretly plotting to kill your own compatriots." β
"I can......'t wait," the group replied on one knee again.
Cao Cao: "Get up!" β
Then Cao Cao talked with them about a lot of people's livelihood, since there will be no war in a short time, then develop people's livelihood well, fat people get rid of poverty and become rich, conscription, and train more elite soldiers.
In the next conquest, Cao Cao didn't plan to ask for help from the army of another world, he had to solve it himself. After all, with the expansion of the territory, a lot of raw materials for the manufacture of gunpowder have been collected, and now they have begun to manufacture gunpowder and native grenades in large quantities.
Cannons are also being made, and with these thermal weapons they can have an innate advantage, can those soldiers who are not afraid of pain still be able to block grenades and cannons?
And Cao Cao also vaguely guessed that the prescriptions obtained by those princes must have been given by the three immortals of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and those Yellow Turban wrestlers were not afraid of pain, they just took that kind of medicine. However, that drug also has sequelae, and the persistence time is not long, and it will be very weak after that, and the life span of the person concerned will be shortened:
