Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Ruined Plains

However, when they saw a group of unarmed refugees under the gate of the plains, their mood still could not be calm. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 After all, in ancient times, there were still a few people who could enter the city, and most of the peasants could only live on the edge of the city wall, and if there was an enemy, they ran directly to the vicinity, and they ran to the city for refuge. Of course, in many cases, humane prefects will not let so many people in and waste food.

"It's really..." Shen Huili really didn't know how to describe the scene in front of her, and it is estimated that in the eyes of future generations, any slum on the earth is nothing more than that. A dilapidated wooden or straw mat house, but if it rains, it will certainly not do much to keep out the rain. This is still some people with good family backgrounds, and more of them just fall on the ground and casually grab some bark and grass roots and stuff them into their mouths. Others gather together to make palm-sized mud cakes with a small amount of rice and flour that they collect, mixed with wild vegetable bark and loess. Anyway, although I am very numb, I still have the desire to live.

Of course, in order to survive, human nature is no longer in the scope of consideration. After inspecting Liu Bei for a while, everyone found that there was a group of people sitting on the ground in front of them, and there was a big pot in the middle of boiling something, and there was a smell of meat wafting in the distance. Shen Huili and the others reacted immediately, after all, when they didn't usually come to the main god space, they didn't read less novels that they had traveled through. Ellie and Liu Meng spit out directly and couldn't stop at all, and Li Yun also spit out two mouthfuls, which were smoked by the smell. Shen Huili was very calm, after all, Shen Huili was a big nerve, and Cai Rong had already taken the soldiers to camp not far away, so she didn't see this scene.

Liu Bei's three brothers didn't look very good, after all, they had been arranged to be the Taishou here, but when they came, they found that the form here was very bad. Liu Bei sighed: "My dream is to re-establish the glory of martial arts, and return the world to peace, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment." Since the Holy God has placed me here, this is also an expectation for me, so let the plains be the first step for the people to live in peace under my rule. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei nodded one after another: "Accept the big brother's orders!" ”

Liu Bei turned around and said to Shen Huili and the others: "Let's go to the city to take a look at the resources in the city, and then distribute the food to everyone." In the evening, I would ask the local family to help them, hoping that they could raise some food for emergencies. By the way, I notified my friend Jian Yong Jian Xianhe to come over to help me, he was a good friend of mine when I was young, and his ability is also outstanding. There is also the marriage between Shen Nuxia and my second brother, and it is not easy to drag it on. ”

Shen Huili smiled: "It's okay, Xianhe's ability is indeed good, and we have heard of it." As for those families, even if they are reluctant to take food, it's fine, it's a big deal that we can just buy it, at least in terms of money, in our hometown, this thing is almost like dung. Shen Huili casually took out a large piece of gold bar, which made Liu Bei and the others speechless, but anyway, Liu Bei knew that he would not worry about money in the future.

The city in the plains is a little stronger than the outside, after all, the money and grain are in the hands of the family, and the real people still don't have much food. Begging abounded in the city, and when Liu Bei came to the county office, he found that this place was estimated to be almost able to run mice. "Don't look at it, the previous county magistrate has already emptied things." Liu Bei greeted Zhang Fei, who was still rummaging through the cabinets, and Zhang Fei was very unhappy with the scolding. Of course, it is not completely absent, and there are still 1,800 sets of rusty weapons and armor. There were more than 200 bows and thousands of arrows. Well, in general, it's not enough for a defensive battle. After all, Pingyuan County is still close to the Central Plains, and there are no aliens, so the city defense is indeed a little shabby.

However, in the warehouse, about a few hundred quintals of millet mixed with sand were found, as well as a small pile of moldy noodles. Liu Bei directly asked the hundreds of people under his command to distribute these things, which seemed to be not enough for the group of people outside the city to eat for two days. However, in two days, his baggage team is estimated to be arranged, and then he will feed back with food. "By the way, I must have a good talk with the family tonight, it's not a matter if it goes on like this." Liu Bei was in a broken thought on the side.

The feeling that Liu Bei brings to others is that he is kind and close, which makes people feel good at first sight. Because of this, Liu Bei was still in the family banquet that night. The food was also easily handled under Liu Bei's money offensive, and even a few families recommended some useful talents to Liu Bei, such as a family surnamed Han in Pingyuan recommended a family called Han Juzi's general, and his strength was average, but for Liu Bei, a person who lacked soldiers and major generals, it was better than nothing. Another family surnamed Zhao also recommended one of his generals to Liu Bei, named He Kui. But no matter how you look at it, it seems that it was kicked out because of the disambition under the surname Zhao.

However, after Liu Bei finished the dinner, Cai Rong found Liu Bei. "Liu Pingyuan, although I am quite kind at today's dinner, there are also a few dishonest people. For example, there is a family head named Wang Fang who seems to have been looking at you with cold eyes all the time, and it is estimated that some of your practices today have harmed his interests. So I propose to have a military parade, that is, to show your strength. After all, there were only more than 500 of us coming in this time, and most of the soldiers were outside the city. So I suggest that among the 10,000 or so soldiers, pick out a few thousand people who can handle it, and walk in front of this group of families, it is estimated that they will be much more obedient in the future. ”

Liu Bei thought about it for a while: "What you said makes sense, I'll let Guan Yu help you in this matter, the two of you can pick four thousand people, and just walk around the city gate twice." Then they helped the refugees to build houses so that production could be quickly resumed the following year. ”

"The affairs of refugees are easy to do, we have a method called volunteering, which is to work and eat enough to come and go freely. In this way, the motivation of the refugees to work can be increased, and they will not develop the habit of being lazy. Of course, it is true that older or younger people are not suitable for this method. We had a lot to do, such as repairing the city walls, vouchers for nearby hills. We will be able to carry out large-scale cultivation next year, but I guess the family will have to intervene in this matter, and we will have to discuss it carefully. Cai Rong's attitude of making a report by a later leader made Liu Bei understand a lot of advanced practices. Liu Bei nodded again and again when he heard this, and immediately called Guan Yu to ask him and Cai Rong to prepare for tomorrow's military parade.
