Chapter 2 Prescriptions

"Now Jizhou Mu Han Fu, Qingzhou Mu Yuan Shao, Youzhou Mu Gong Sun Zhan, has become a three-point trend, although there is no change at present, but after the spring next year, there will be a big war between the three of them. ”

The early dynasty has ended, and after some chores have been dealt with, Liu Xuan left a few close people, including Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Liu Ye and Liu Bei, who gradually recovered.

Zhang Liao personally sat outside the door, not allowing outsiders to break in, it can be said that now the people in the side hall of this greenhouse hall are Liu Xuan's henchmen, compared to those in the court, these people are the ones who can really be used and can discuss important matters together.

Everyone sat down, Liu Ye directly told his speculation, and everyone had already known about this matter, so there was no surprise.

In order to conquer the white wave thieves, Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi, wantonly collected money and grain in the local area to replenish the army, although it has not caused any civil uprising for the time being, but it will become a disaster for a long time. Henan Taishou Kong Rong expressed his opinions, hoping that the imperial court would impose some restraints on Wang Kuang. ”

Cao Cao sat on the west side of the Yellow River, but looked at the counties east of the river from afar, so he knew a lot about the situation in that area. After being recalled to Beijing by Liu Xuan, he also deliberately went to look at the recital over there, and he knew such a situation.

But for Kong Rong's advances, he just smiled disdainfully: This Kong Wenju is really stupid to read, Wang Kuang is now in the hands of soldiers and horses, and he is not in the area controlled by the imperial court, why should he be bound by your imperial court?

If you have a little respect for the court and can still deal with it, if you have already had a disobedient heart, it is estimated that you don't even bother to pay attention to it, and do your own thing.

More importantly, Wang Kuang's collection of money and grain is also a last resort, since the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, natural disasters in various places have continued, the grain harvest has been very poor, more than ten years have passed, there is not much surplus grain everywhere. Wang Kuang is ravaged by the White Wave Thieves next to him, and if he doesn't collect the scrapes for military use, I am afraid that his Hanoi will be immediately beaten down by the White Wave Thieves.

Because Liu Xuan redivided the prefectures and counties, there have been many changes in the division of prefectures and counties in the north, such as Hanoi and Hedong, which were originally supposed to belong to the merged prefectures, are now under the jurisdiction of Sizhou.

In addition to this, the adjustments to the east are not significant, and these adjustments have been announced to the whole world, and now the local governors have to redefine their spheres of influence - this is also a deliberate move to cause them to conflict, if they feel that their territory is occupied by others, conflict is inevitable.

Only when the group of guys in the east fought in the dark, Liu Xuan had the energy to slowly farm here. Otherwise, the princes of the world will not be able to get along with the imperial court, and in the end, won't the imperial court become independent against the world's heroes? This is not very comfortable.

"At the same time, Zhang Yang privately took the party, supported tens of thousands of soldiers, and looked down on the entire merger of states......"

Bingzhou is now quite chaotic, basically there is no supreme governor, half is under the control of officials, half is under the control of the thief army, and some of them were occupied by the Xiongnu because of the chaos in previous years, and there is no time to take it back.

And the annexation of the state is the northern gateway of the imperial court, if the annexation of the state is lost, the imperial court will face the northern Xiongnu, which is naturally a great disadvantage for Liu Xuan.

"What about Yuzhou, Xuzhou and other places?"

The situation in Hebei is already clear and clear, and the state is in chaos, Youzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou have their own battles to the death, and whether Yuan Shao will occupy Hebei in the end, this has to be seen.

I don't know if I talked about the affairs of the Hebei counties, Liu Bei's face was a little ugly, Liu Xuan turned his head to see it, knowing that Liu Bei was worried about the safety of his senior brother Gongsun Zhan. But he can't say anything about this matter, Liu Bei is now on his boat, so naturally he can't think about it from Gongsun Zhan's point of view.

At present, he already knows that the emperor is eager for the Kwantung heroes to fight together, and the current performance of the Kwantung heroes is not at all like being a courtier, Liu Bei also knows that Gongsun Zhan, whether active or passive, has been tabooed by the imperial court, even if he can win the battle with Yuan Shao this time, he will also be requisitioned by the imperial court in the future.

Sighing secretly, he could only pray that Gongsun Zhan would be defeated in the battle with Yuan Shao, and then escape with his life, in that case, he Liu Bei would feel that he could still save this classmate, otherwise no one would be able to save his life.

A few people around didn't have the energy to pay attention to Liu Bei, and when they heard the emperor's inquiry, they immediately said: "Some counties and counties in Yuzhou are occupied by Yuan Shu, and Xuzhou is governed well by Tao Qian and Tao Gongzu. ”

For Tao Qian, these people are also quite admired, because since the reign of the first emperor, the world has been plagued by disasters, followed by military disasters, tossed for so long, most of the people's livelihood in various states and counties has withered, homeless, landless and countless people have no land to cultivate, but Xuzhou has always been prosperous under its governance.

Moreover, after several military disasters, Xuzhou was not damaged in the slightest, which shows that Tao Qian also has a bit of skill in military affairs.

Liu Xuan also knew that this Tao Qian was indeed capable, but unfortunately he was too old, even if he recruited Tao Qian into the imperial court now, and then cultivated it well, it was estimated that it would not take long, so he never beat this old man's idea at all.

According to the original process, although Xuzhou has been very prosperous in recent years, but in the following ten years it has become a place of continuous disasters, the most critical point is that Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, and then came several massacres, and then Liu Bei led Xuzhou Mu, Lu Bu into Xuzhou, Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou several times, the lord of Xuzhou changed several times in ten years, and completely destroyed a prosperous state and county.

But now the three most important people are under their own accounts, and I don't know if Xuzhou will become like that?

talked about things with everyone again, and at the same time instructed Xun You to popularize the farming methods implemented in Chang'an to Yongzhou, and wait until Yongzhou is finished to popularize it and then popularize it to Liangzhou.

However, Xun You also put forward a point: "There are still many fertile fields in Yongzhou, but it is difficult to implement the bitter cold land in the western cool, although His Majesty's various methods are wonderful, but they cannot change the situation in the entire Liangzhou overnight." Why don't you make another arrangement in Liangzhou?"

This is also more in line with the current situation, such as the development of animal husbandry in Liangzhou, but Liu Xuan feels that even if Xiliang itself is not good, it should not be given up, and as much grain can be planted, anyway, with the growth and maturity of grain in Yongzhou, with the power of Liu Xuan's arrangement, new grain varieties will slowly become high-yield grain varieties, even if they are thrown into Liangzhou, they can grow a lot of grain, only if the food is enough, can the people have children with confidence!

Otherwise, how would ordinary people dare to have children if they couldn't even eat enough for themselves? Even if they accidentally gave birth to one, they would be strangled to death immediately -- and in worse places, they would have to be eaten by their children.

After the chaotic war at the end of the Han Dynasty, the population plummeted in addition to the hundred years of war, there are also reasons for this, Liu Xuan is now guaranteeing this, and the common people naturally do not care about it, so that the population base can grow a lot - whether it is the source of soldiers or labor, it is based on a large number of ordinary people, so Liu Xuan can't afford not to pay attention to it.

After explaining to Xun You, he also agreed with the establishment of animal husbandry in Xiliang, but at this time, it was mostly small-scale breeding, Liu Xuan had considered establishing a large-scale farm to engage in large-scale aquaculture, but there were so many problems to be solved, even if he had this plan now, it would not be able to succeed for a while.

pinched the bridge of his nose and found that even if these two things are really done at present, they can't even build a foundation in ten years, which shows how difficult it is to achieve great things in this era.

And after saying these things, Liu Xuan began to turn his attention to the military.

These things are going to be discussed with Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Lu Bulai, just now I only talked about people's livelihood, although these people have their own opinions, but they can't help but say nothing, and after listening to Liu Xuan's arrangement, I feel that I don't need to say those ideas.

As for the military, Cao Cao took the lead in reporting: "The 5,000-person establishment of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is now full, and after this year's training, it has initially gained combat effectiveness. The most important thing is that His Majesty has recovered Xiliang, and the war horses ridden by the tiger and leopard have supply channels, and now the tiger and leopard riding have formed a combat force and can conquer the Quartet for His Majesty at any time. ”

Liu Xuan nodded, this answer made him very satisfied.

After the reorganization, the tiger and leopard cavalry, in addition to Cao Cao's own 1,000 guards heavy cavalry, is divided into two tiger cavalry and leopard cavalry, each with a captain and one commander, is a complete cavalry unit, in the north of this large area of plains, its power can be imagined.

But Liu Xuan was not satisfied with that, and then he took out another prescription and asked Cao Bao to send it to Cao Cao, Cao Cao saw a puzzled face, and looked up at Liu Xuan: "...... is this?"

"This prescription is mixed into the feed of the war horse, which can make the war horse stronger. If you eat the forage brewed in this prescription for a long time, even if the war horse is heavily armoured, it can still run like flying, move freely, and its endurance will also increase, so you don't have to worry about the war horse being too tired and unable to charge after walking for a long time. ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, if Liu Xuan was not exaggerating, then the tiger and leopard cavalry would undoubtedly become a nightmare for all enemies - just imagine, a group of riders and war horses are heavily armored, and the cavalry that is not afraid of ordinary bows and arrows and can directly attack the battle array, as well as the speed of light cavalry and the ability to run long distances, what a terrible thing it is?

Cao Cao did not organize the entire army of tigers and leopards into heavy cavalry because of the strength of the horse's feet and weight, and now it seems that this problem does not need to be a headache at all.

Among the people present, it is definitely Lu Bu who is the most eye-catching, but he also knows now that he can't be greedy, not to mention that Liu Xuan didn't give him good things, just the method of cultivating Chitu, if it is successful, his combat power on the battlefield will be increased by a few grades, and there is no need to covet such a prescription.

What's more, Lu Bu believed that since the emperor took out this thing in front of everyone, it meant that he would not give this thing to Cao Cao alone.

Sure enough, Liu Xuan then said: "At the moment, only Meng De's tiger and leopard rider urgently needs this thing, so I will give it to Meng De first." If anyone is useful, come and tell me directly. ”

After finishing this, Liu Xuan directly asked everyone to disperse, but at the end he called again: "Meng De, stay." ”
