Chapter 123: How to Respond
Chen Gong, the chief military advisor, also laughed after listening to Lu Bu's words: "Although Ji Ling is very strong, compared to the lord, he is like a naughty boy, and the army of 100,000 is actually 320,000 soldiers, and the rest are all strong and courageous." However, according to Cao Cao's temperament, he couldn't just look for Yuan Shu. ”
Lu Bu touched the short beard on his chin, thoughtful: "Gongtai means that Yuan Shao should also send troops to join in the fun." ”
"Yes, Cao Cao will definitely go to pick up Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao has no opinion, and is likely to obey Cao Cao's arrangement and use troops against us from Jizhou. Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, none of the three-way people are terrible, but we don't have the ability to fight in the three ways, so we have to prepare in advance. ”
"It makes sense, three-front combat is definitely not possible. What is the best way for the public station, let's listen to it. ”
Chen Gong nodded: "If the expectation is good, the three should be started as soon as spring next year, when the time comes, we will be busy with spring ploughing, and there is no way to draw a large number of strong men, and we will inevitably suffer a big loss, this is definitely Guo Jia's ghost idea, but it is not difficult to break." Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao are fighting hotly, didn't he ask us to buy weapons, then give them to them, once Yuan Shao sends troops to Qingzhou, let Gongsun Chan stab the knife from Youzhou. ”
Lu Bu thoughtfully: "Gongsun Chan is a bit of a sissy, I'm afraid he is not so obedient." ”
"This is also simple, the lord only needs to send a team to attack Yuan Shao by pretending to be Gongsun Zhan's army, and Gongsun Chan will be speechless at that time. As soon as Gongsun Chan made a move, he could contain Yuan Shao's energy, and they would not be able to draw up troops to attack Qingzhou. At this time, let's send an envoy to Yuan Shao to explain Cao Cao's conspiracy in detail and let Yuan Shao attack Cao Cao. ”
Lu Bu thought about it carefully, it made sense, and immediately arranged: "Contact Gongsun Zan immediately and provide them with many weapons such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, etc., except for strong bows and crossbows, what do you want." ”
The caravan went all the way to contact Gongsun Zhan, but Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao didn't deal with each other, and the dog's brains on both sides were about to come out.
Lu Bu had a good relationship with Gongsun Zhan, and often sold some weapons to Gongsun Zhan, and now in order to contain Yuan Shao, Lu Bu secretly sent a small team to attack Yuan Shaojun, making Yuan Shaojun think that Gongsun Chan provoked the war.
As for Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, Lu Bu and Chen Gongyi discussed and adopted the method of drawing salaries from the bottom of the kettle.
Do not occupy your Cao Cao's land, but steal your Cao Cao's population.
Due to the huge impact of locusts, floods and other disasters in Cao Cao's territory, there was a tragedy of cannibalism in some areas.
In the face of this tragedy, Cao Cao was powerless to rescue.
Over the past year, Lu Bu has been sneaking around and working piecemeal, recruiting more than 100,000 laborers from Yanzhou.
Because of the abundant food in Qingzhou at this time, and the convenience of fish and salt, the refugees must have stuttered when they come.
Moreover, Lu Bu recruited famous doctors in the world and had to train a large number of barefoot Langzhong. The current situation is that Qingzhou's money, food, medical care, and culture far exceed those of other states in Dahan.
There has always been a siphon effect, and the world's celebrities, the world's famous doctors, and the world's skilled craftsmen have been coming to Qingzhou in a steady stream.
So the way to deal with Cao Cao is to dig into his corner, it turns out that only male workers are recruited.
Now both male and female workers are recruited, and more than 10,000 people run from Cao Cao's territory to Lu Bu's territory every month.
If other princes had accepted such displaced people, the economy would have collapsed a long time ago, but Qingzhou was fine, because the family had a thick foundation, and fish, salt, rice, various workshops, and industrial mines needed a large number of people.
As for the 100,000 army of Ji Ling sent by Yuan Shu, Lu Bu didn't pay attention to it.
Although Ji Ling is a famous general, in front of Lu Bu, Ji Ling is not enough to see at all, so he can handle it casually.
Lu Bu got up and shook his arms and legs to look at the cold wind outside.
"Gongtai, now that the weather is cold, it is the time when there is nothing to do, the people are easy to make trouble when they are idle, and arrange for the counties to carry out a large militia exercise, so as to say that Cao Cao is entangled in the three-way army to attack us, we must be fully prepared."
"Okay lord, then conduct a three-day military training, then a ten-day official road maintenance, and then a ten-day river cleanup in various places."
With an order, Jinan County was the first to act.
More than 100,000 people gathered in the village and conducted simulated drills on the land outside the village.
The target is that the enemy is coming, the villagers quickly move, build temporary positions, assist the officials in the battle, and so on.
In the west of Jinan, tens of thousands of strong men are holding the banners of each village in the village, holding a variety of weapons one by one, shouting and killing, which still looks a little powerful.
Some people train hard, and some people are responsible for cooking, the big pot stove is boiling, and the sorghum nest can be made vigorously.
Not to mention the dishes, not only pickles, but also stewed sea fish, sea fish in large pots and cauldrons.
The strong men are happy as the New Year, although the training is intense, but the food is really powerful.
On this day, Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd, and took Dian Wei and other elite generals to inspect the strong men.
Chen Gong sent someone to report the news, saying that Hua Tuo was here to apply for the post of chief medical officer of Qingzhou Barefoot Langzhong.
In fact, there have been a lot of Langzhong recently, but all of them are medical officers, and this chief medical officer has been vacant.
Chen Gong suggested that Lu Bu should be in charge, because Lu Bu had several miracle medicines that he had come up with, one was amoxicillin to avoid suppuration of the wound, and the other was to take ibuprofen to reduce fever when he had a fever.
But Lu Bu knew that his catties and taels were all exchanged in the system, although it was said that this was an excellent medicine, but it was not something he researched after all.
Lu Bu came to the Thorn History Mansion and saw Hua Tuo, Hua Tuo was not old at this time, that is, he was in his forties, with a medium to thin figure, a little hunchbacked, two assistants by his side, carrying a big luggage package.
Chen Gong was talking to Hua Tuo, and when he saw Lu Bu coming, Chen Gong came over to report: "Lord, I plan to let Hua Tuo be the chief medical officer of our Qingzhou and train thousands of barefoot Langzhong." ”
However, Hua Tuo was very unimpressed with Lu Bu: "Master Assassin Shi, I am very dissatisfied with your proposal, barefoot Langzhong, which means two knives and half a bottle of water, how can you be so hasty in practicing medicine to save people." ”
"Doctor Huashen, you are from a family of medical Taoists, tell me, if you cultivate a good Langzhong, Langzhong who is proficient in everything, how many years will it take?"
"Generally, Langzhong began to study medicine at the age of ten, and he was barely able to practice medicine in his twenties. After more than ten years of experience, it can be said that he is a good man. ”
"That's it, a good man can't be found. If there is a patient a hundred miles away, his stomach hurts. He doesn't know where Dr. Hua is, but there is a barefoot Langzhong in the village, although his medical skills are not very good, but he is also reluctant, do you think the villagers are trying their best to find you, or to find this barefoot Langzhong? ”
