"What about the other than that?"

It's rare to hear a person speak praises so freshly, and the rise of Xi Yu is listening, but Zang Ba has stopped describing.

After a pause for a few seconds, seeing that the other party was no longer speechless, he spoke decisively.

Ever since the floodgates were opened and the flood flooded East County, he had had plenty of time, and now he had time to listen to the praise.

Anyway, the river is flooding, and Cao Pi just wants to restore it as soon as possible, and it is difficult to do it in a short period of time.

Large-scale flooding has already occurred, and the entire Dongjun County is afraid that there will be no harvest this year.

Not only that, but in the next few years, I am afraid that the grain production of Dongjun County, which has been flooded, will not be able to go up.

If fertile land is to be fertile and grain is to be full, it will take years to recover, to say the least.

After this flooding, I am afraid that the people of Dongjun will migrate on a large scale.

After all, no one wants to live in a place where there is no security.

As a result, the place of Dongjun is about to be deserted.

At the very least, in recent years, not too many people have settled here.

"Besides these?"

Zang Ba's eyes widened, he thought for a long time, then scratched the back of his head, smiled innocently, and asked, "Is it still ······ What else? Lord? ”

"How? Can't you see that? ”

Xi Yu glanced at him, then shook his head, and sighed: "I originally thought that with your intelligence, I would be able to see the deep meaning, so that I could appoint you as the Taishou of Dongjun to be more open, but who would have thought that you wouldn't be able to see it, how should this be good?" ”

"East County ······"

Higashijun Taishou?

Although Dongjun has become a vast ocean now, this place is much bigger than the place where I used to be!

Zang Ba was stunned, he didn't expect Xi Yu to have such a plan at all.

He looked at him and said decisively: "In addition to Qingxu Erdi, the biggest advantage of the lord is the Son of Heaven, with the Son of Heaven as the leader, use the eloquence of the literati and Confucian scholars in Qingxu Erdi as a sword, and lash down the ministers of the two places, and denounce Cao Wei of Yanzhou!" ”

"While Cao Wei is unable to gain a foothold in the Han Dynasty, he should also be ordered by the Son of Heaven to recruit the people in Yanzhou, especially the people affected by the disaster in Dongjun, to appease and have mercy."

"If we can persuade them to settle down in our territory, to recuperate, and to allow them to have a good land and a good life, I am afraid that no one in this world will blame us for the mention of this flood."

"At the same time, it can also extinguish all kinds of 'slander' and accusations against us by Cao Wei and others because of this incident!"

"All in all, since we have won this battle, we must win beautifully, and we must not bear the slightest infamy, let alone damage your image in the eyes of the people of the world!"

“······”

It was a matter of his own interests, Zang Ba did not hesitate at all, and said all the true thoughts in his heart.

It's just that he never stood up.

He was particularly uneasy as he was crawling on the ground.

If he could, he would never say it in front of people.

Because the flood has already occurred, I am somewhat unpleasant to say this.

If the other party cares too much, he is afraid that he will be punished in anger, and he is afraid that he will want to cry without tears and be speechless, and he will annoy the other party.

But Xi Yu was not as calculating as he thought.

Not only that, but he also glanced at Guo Jia, who was standing at the entrance of the tent, and then looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha, okay!" ”

Zang Ba raised his head and looked at the other party with a confused expression.

The lord's laughter is somewhat too heroic.

The surging momentum and surging aura look like a generation of heroes!

But with the laughter of this unique posture, it makes people feel happy and empathetic.

"Lord······ Why is the lord laughing? “

Zang Ba felt that he couldn't understand what was going on anymore.

He couldn't understand the unfathomable drama, and turned to look at Guo Jia, trying to find an answer.

At this moment, Xi Yu spoke.

"In fact, long before I went to Mount Tai, Guo Jia recommended you to me, he said that you seem rude, like a reckless man, but in fact you are a delicate person."

"I also said that you have done research on the people's livelihood, military, and even topography in Yanzhou, and you are the best candidate to guard Yanzhou.

"Huh?"

Zang Ba was a little confused by the second battle monk, and looked at Guo Jia in surprise, I don't know why the other party moved?

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and thought of the night he had been drinking.

"Lord, Lord Fengxiao went to Mount Tai to escort grain and grass before, and it was ······ to drink with me."

"It was I who instructed him, and he treated him sincerely!"

Xi Yu understood what he was talking about, nodded, and continued: "Drinking is to give you a clean sweep and celebrate your arrival, but I told him in advance to let me know when I drink, so that I can show up at the right time." ”

"Next······ Then you will know. ”

"I have this move, one is to see your loyalty, and the other is to see your strategic offense and defense in leading the troops to fight, I have to say that I am very satisfied with what you have done in Dongjun."

"So, after Yanzhou is defeated, you will have to worry a lot."

Yan ······ Yanzhou?

Didn't you just say Dongjun? How did it suddenly become Yanzhou?

Zang Ba blinked, a little unable to come back to his senses.

At this point, he was indeed at a loss.

Yanzhou is vast, and Dongjun is insignificant compared to it, not to mention the small places such as Taishan, where Zang Ba was located before.

But right now, Xi Yu actually let him come out of a place as small as Mount Tai and rule over the entire Yanzhou, which ······ It's not a dream, is it?

Seeing Zang Ba's disbelief, Xi Yu smiled and said lightly: "You should have heard that he was one of the most important ministers under Yuan Shao, and he had already surrendered to me, and I handed him over to you to manage." ”

"At the same time, if you can be trusted, you can hand over all four sons to me to cultivate, if you can, I plan to train two of them as generals to take charge of military power, and the other two as officials to deal with local internal affairs, I don't know, what do you think?"

"The last general will all be arranged by the lord!"

Zang Ba didn't know what to say.

He never dreamed that his four sons would have such glory, and the lord personally cultivated them, even if they wanted to be disabled, it was impossible for them to be disabled!

Isn't it a bit too little to say that he only has four sons?

If there are a few more, it will be cultivated by the lord······ The blessings of the entire family are really profound, maybe the ancestral grave can smoke green!

Hey, hey, hey!!

Of course, he only enjoyed this idea silently in his heart.

After all, Xi Yu didn't specialize in taking care of children, and he didn't have the courage to make such a request.

The main thing is that no one knows if he will have a son next.

So don't gamble on the future of yourself and your family with uncertainties.

But even so, he has four sons who have entered Taixue, which can be regarded as a glorious lintel, which is worth congratulating.

Also, it is said that in order to keep up with the internal affairs and local governance of Qingxu Erdi, the lord has already arranged for him to enter Taixue.

If his four children also entered Taixue, wouldn't they be classmates with the Son of Heaven?

What a glory this is!

"Thank you for the help, the end will be nothing to repay, this body is set for you to saddle the horse and the horse, the horse leather shroud!"

"It doesn't have to be that way!"

Xi Yu waved his hand, sighed deeply, and said: "My actions are also to comfort you, after all, there are not a few brothers who died in this war, and I should show some of them." ”

"You must also remember that you must give the families of the soldiers who died this time enough pensions, and you must not have half of them privately, in addition, I will posthumously crown them as martyrs and bury them in the cemetery for future generations to pay respect."

"The last general obeys!"

"Also, in a few days, someone will send a large number of military supplies and necessary materials into Taishan County, you need to develop and expand Taishan County as quickly as possible, as for the battle on the front line, I have my own arrangements!"

"No!"

It was only at this time that Zang Ba was completely relieved, and he no longer had any worries.

I have to say that following the lord is peace of mind.

Not only were the soldiers he cared about the most rewarded, but even the most troublesome wars were taken over.

At the moment, apart from managing Taishan County and waiting for Yanzhou to take over after it is brought together, he doesn't need to worry about anything at all.

After the lord conquers Yanzhou, Dongjun will naturally be incorporated into his territory, and he will become the most powerful person in the entire Yanzhou.

"Thank you Lord for cultivating!"

"General Zang, I am here to congratulate you in advance, the promotion is imminent!"

Guo Jia smiled and arched his hand towards Zang Ba, his eyes were full of joy.

Obviously, he was happy for Zang Ba from the bottom of his heart.

But at the same time, his smile on the surface was just right, and he became more and more arrogant.

Indeed, with his intelligence and the relationship between Xi Yu, there is no need to be jealous or suppress a Zang Ba.

Moreover, he was the first to propose this plan.

It can be said that Zang Ba's honor today is inextricably linked to him Guo Jia.

······

Seven days later, the roar and howl from the heavens became more and more violent, and the clouds were thick, and the heavy rain continued for several days, causing the water levels of rivers and streams to rise sharply everywhere in the world.

Zhuge Liang watched the sky early and at night, and expected such a situation.

That's why Xi Yu ordered the floodgates to be opened seven days ago.

Now it seems that the effect is really extraordinary.

Xiahou Chun, who returned to Puyang City, didn't have time to take care of the internal government affairs of Dongjun at all, he himself was driven around by the flood, and he was embarrassed, where did he have time to take care of the people?

As a result, large numbers of people who have been left homeless and have had to flee upstream in search of a way out.

Although the flood water is coming down from the upstream, it is the huge sluices located upstream that really turn Dongjun into an ocean.

If all the sluices hadn't been opened at the same time, how could the downstream floods have been swallowed up by the flood and suffered heavy losses?

Therefore, the upstream is the safest place to vent, unlike the downstream, especially the towns around Pushui, which are more likely to be ravaged by floods.

Although the people also know that the place they are in and the upstream territory are not under the jurisdiction of the same person, but the matter has come to this point, it is good to be able to live, where is there so much effort?

Therefore, in just seven days, hundreds of thousands of refugees moved from Dongjun to Shouzhang and Dongping.

Some of the nobles who claim to be the most expensive are reluctant to leave their homeland and go to the upper reaches because they know some inside stories and because the two places are in different camps.

But they didn't leave, and the people around them left, what merchants, farmers, slaves······ Even a few officials abandoned their homeland and planned to relocate elsewhere.

In this way, if they stay here, they are afraid that even eating and drinking will become a problem.

But······ If you want to move, in addition to Shouchun upstream, only Xuchang below remains.

After all, only these two places are big enough to accommodate celebrities like them, and enough for them to live a stable life.

But in this way, where to live a better life has become the first question they discuss.

As we all know, Xuchang is far from being as prosperous as Shouchun.

Cao Pidu moved from Xuchang to Chang'an, and now Xuchang is only a lonely shell.

But Shouchun is different.

There are many high-rise buildings, street vendors come and go, there are a variety of goods, the people live a rich life, there are many celebrities, there are all kinds of eating, drinking and playing, and there are countless restaurants and teahouses.

Compared with the worry-free food and clothing in Xuchang, this place is obviously more desirable to everyone.

After all, as we all know, it is easy to go from simplicity to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to simplicity.

If you can live a chic and comfortable life, why bother to find a place with little character?

Of course, there are many people who think more long-term.

Since Shouchun is far more prosperous than Xuchang, how luxurious should Xiapi, which is the root of the development of literati and the gathering place of countless celebrities?

It is said that Taixue teaches students according to their aptitude, and what their students learn is based on their personal preferences, and the strange skills and left ways taught by the master are even more ignorant of geometry, which is quite a bit of the posture of a hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

In addition, agriculture, water conservancy, craftsmen ······ Even the way of doing business, as long as you are willing to learn, there will be a teacher who will teach you.

This is quite curious for many people.

Oh yes.

It is said that the trading houses in Xiapi often bought the students' strategies at low prices, and instead copied and compiled them on a large scale and sold them to more distant places.

Of course, the premise is that your strategy is reasonable and feasible.

As for the content of the policy, it is naturally informal, such as internal affairs, water conservancy, and agricultural affairs······ As long as you have real talent and real learning, you can do it!

If you feel that you don't have any talent, you can also write a text denouncing Cao Wei and hand it over to the vendors, and you can get a lot of money, to say the least.

The more I thought about it, the more the celebrities in Dongjun felt that Xiapi was a good place to go.

After all, in the whole world, except for Xiapi, there are places where both people and speech are extremely free.

Therefore, after thinking about it carefully, many people have the idea of going to the nearest Dongping to settle down first.

After the family is stable, think about the method of surrendering to the Chengsheng Guogong, if you can take this opportunity to settle in Xiapi, it will be great.

With such a decision, they acted far faster than the people who had left earlier.

So, while the entire Dongjun fell into the ocean, the people who had lived in the Dongjun for many years carried their luggage and rushed to Xuzhou.

In this team, there are countless exiled people, but after the merchants, the rich families, the clansmen, and the famous families······ There are not a few.

Hearing this news, the people of Yanzhou were really anxious and foaming, but there was nothing they could do.

Xiahou Chuncai was lucky enough to pick up a life from the torrent, it is not easy to live, and where can he have the kung fu to manage the "homeless" people in Dongjun?

He felt that it would be good if he could stabilize the army under his command in a short period of time, and he couldn't control the large-scale loss of the people at all.

After more than ten days in a row, just as his army was about to stabilize somewhat, he suddenly found out······ It's too late for him to do anything now.

Right now, I'm afraid that he can't even stabilize the morale of the army!

Because ······ The grain and grass are about to be emptied!

The harvest had just begun, and it was swallowed up by the flood, and the only bit of grain he received in the eastern county was burned clean by a fire from Zang Ba.

Now only the grain and grass that was transported with the army remained.

But although this little grain and grass was not burned by Zang Ba, it was somewhat lost, and later coupled with the flood disaster, Dongjun did not harvest any grains.

To this day, the remaining little grain and grass is completely not enough for the army to eat, so what does he use to win people's hearts and gather the army?

When the flood struck, many soldiers became deserters, and if you want to gather them all today, you can't eat what you want in your mouth.

Otherwise, when you have no money to earn and no food to eat, who would be so stupid as to follow you faithfully, even if you are naked and hungry?

Besides, how can a general who has suffered several defeats in a row convince the soldiers?

Now that he has escaped, he naturally has no intention of going back, rather than following a general who will kill him at some point, it is better to return to his hometown as soon as possible, take his family away from home, and start anew.

If you can, it's not impossible to go to the enemy camp to surrender.

Anyway, in the enemy camp, both the treatment and the morale of the army are far from being comparable to Cao Wei's army.

With such an idea, how could Xiahou Chun win back the hearts of the army?

Don't talk about the heart of the army, he can't get the hearts of the people in the territory!

Even the clan class did not have the slightest desire to defend him, and the local officials who were loyal to Cao Wei before also had a lot of thoughts of continuing to work hard.

A man-made flood caused Xiahou Chun to lose more than half of his soldiers, the hearts of the people of Dongjun, and even fewer local officials who were bent on plotting for him.

In this case, there was nothing he could do but lose.

Soon, with the departure of the army, Dongjun was completely lost, and Puyang City became a precarious place.

The entire Dongjun was overshadowed by the drama, but this was only for the officials of the Dongjun County, as for the people, they shouted one by one to let them submit to the Son of Heaven, stay away from Cao Wei's rebels, and obey the mandate of heaven.

Just when Dongjun was in turmoil, a letter from the Son of Heaven made the scope and impact of this turmoil more and more extensive.

In the book of sin, Liu Xie wrote about the review of his own behavior, the helplessness, guilt and the reasons for the last resort of the flooding of Dongjun.
