Chapter 12: Dare to accept this, he dares so much!
The news that Cao's army had defeated 300,000 Qingxu Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou naturally spread all over the world as victory news.
On the same day, Xun Yu had already written a recital to go to Chang'an to ask the Son of Heaven for credit.
In order to stabilize the chaos, although Chang'an is very chaotic now, Li Dao Guo Yan, who has reoccupied the Son of Heaven, does not dare to be too antagonistic with the princes in order to stabilize it.
What's more, Cao Cao did have a meritorious role in quelling the rebellion, and with an edict, he determined Cao Cao's status as the pastor of Yanzhou and gave him the title.
These official positions are empty for Cao Cao, but they are enough to deter the scholars in the territory under his rule, and the status is high, and the scholars naturally dare not talk about it at will.
The people will also return to Cao Cao, knowing that he is a prince valued by the Son of Heaven and can be edicted to support the Han.
Therefore, it is announced to the world to promote the elimination of thieves, so that the thieves will be frightened.
This time, it can be regarded as the prestige of Cao Cao really spread, and the small princes who were extremely low in the Dong Alliance at the beginning were invited to join the Sour Jujube Alliance by virtue of the benefits of coming out of Luoyang.
Now he is the hero of the troubled times between the north and the south of the famous river.
Qingzhou.
In the Beihai, Tian Kai and Liu Bei naturally heard the news here.
They spent a great deal of experience when they were getting rid of the thieves, and when the thieves crossed the river, they surrounded and attacked, and they were able to win a great victory, and with the might of Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses, they killed more than 30,000 people.
drove the yellow scarves of Qingzhou to Xuzhou.
There was Tao Qian in Xuzhou who was shocked, or subdued or driven away.
In the end, they all rushed to Yanzhou.
When these princes heard the news, they were all mixed with joy.
Worry is regret, after Cao Cao's victory, he actually contained 300,000 soldiers.
You must know that this gang of yellow turban thieves is huge and numerous, although most of them use hoes, farm tools, and even wooden branches and fists to fight.
But they are really treacherous, crawling on the battlefield, very cunning, such veterans, once they have armaments, training in tactics, after a few years of training, they will be reborn, even more powerful than those recruits.
But the joy is also this containment thing, behind the 300,000 soldiers, there are still hundreds of thousands of people, a million people have entered Yanzhou, and it is not easy to settle down.
Gongsun Zhan, Liu Bei, Tao Qian and others were all driven away and did not dare to take them in.
Even Kong Rong, a benevolent and virtuous celebrity, refused to surrender on the grounds of hating the Yellow Turban when he was in power in Beihai, fearing that the grain and grass would be burdensome!
There are too many people, where are the millions of people, this is a million mouths to eat!
Cao Cao ate it at this time, I really don't know if it's stupid or what!
It will take at least a few years to stock up on food in order to satisfy the number of people in the territory who may starve to death at any time.
How stupid.
"How could Cao Cao make such a decision?"
In the main tent of the barracks, Liu Bei fell into confusion the moment he received the news.
He dealt with Cao Cao very early, as early as when he was in Luoyang, there was a rumor, and after many meetings, although he did not talk about it at night, but he also understood that this person was chic, casual, and adventurous.
This is a good character, but it often has both results and risks.
"Now that the rebels have a whereabouts, as far as we are concerned, we are no longer concerned, and Cao Mengde deserves how much benefit he has gained."
"Heh, hehe, hahaha!"
In the main tent, a scribe laughed back, and by the way, raised his hand and threw his Jinxian crown on the case.
"That's right, since Abei is so atmospheric, there is no need to worry about it."
"Naturally," Liu Bei lowered his head, his face was quite calm and calm, "Otherwise, what else?" ”
"Those million displaced people, I don't dare to guarantee that all of them will survive, if Cao Cao can, it will also be a blessing for the people."
"It's just Ah Bei, this Cao Cao has a million people, if he is really settled......
"Impossible!"
Inside the tent, a strong man with a black face suddenly shouted loudly, shook the brush in his hand, and threw it on the table next to him.
He glanced at the calligraphy in front of him with satisfaction.
Then he looked up at them and said, "Millions! ”
"No prince in the north dares to eat it, even if you let them go to Guannei, it is absolutely impossible!"
"There are tens of millions of stones of grain in Taicang in Guannei, do you dare to use it for these people to eat?"
"There is a saying, a hungry thief is like a drowning person, and the rescuer is easy to die."
"Third brother, don't talk nonsense."
Liu Bei turned his head and glared, after many years of getting along, he knew that Zhang Fei was good at calligraphy, and his ability to read and hyphenate words was not bad.
It's temperament, fiery and direct, like the snake spear, straight and straight.
But I don't want to say that.
"Hahaha, or Yide speaks simply."
"Cao Mengde is like a burden on his body this time, and I am afraid that there will be no more development in a few years."
The person who dropped the crown of Jinxian, named Jian Yong, is a friend who has followed Liu Bei since he was a child.
is eloquent and arrogant, but the relationship with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu is not bad.
belonged to Liu Bei's loyal ministers and advisers in his early years, but he didn't plan much.
Jian Yong's ability is mainly on the basis of eloquence diplomacy, and he understands foreign affairs but not domestic affairs.
He has not ruled over any city or county.
"I remember that when I was in Sour Jujube, Cao Cao showed favor to Ah Bei in every possible way, and wanted to take us under his command, but fortunately, we followed Brother Gongsun......"
"Otherwise, hehe, hehe......"
Jian Yong shook his head greatly, and what he was going to say later was self-evident.
Millions of people, in his opinion, Cao Cao will inevitably suffer from it, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to support.
"There is no need to say it," Liu Bei stiffened his face, this is not decent, if it is spread in the future, it must not be criticized.
"Meng De took care of me in every way when he met the alliance, and I will not forget this, and I will ...... in the future Let's help again. ”
Although Liu Bei said so, his brows furrowed inadvertently.
For some reason, he always felt that Cao Cao's step was too big, and he was a little worried.
If he really settles down, then it will be done...... I will look very embarrassed at that time......
As soon as he had such a thought, Liu Bei's eyes immediately shook, if it weren't for someone here, he would have to give himself a few backhand slaps.
Phew! Absolutely impossible!
That's millions of people, how can this be eaten?
Impossible, impossible.
Cao Mengde, you are cocooning yourself this time, and your steps are so big, you are really a little greedy!
"Ah Bei," Jian Yong knew that Liu Bei didn't want to talk about Yanzhou anymore, so he quickly said another situation, "Right now, Brother Gongsun and Yuan Shao have fought many times, and Yuan Tan's soldiers and horses have entered Qingzhou again, so we have to withdraw." ”
Liu Bei sighed and said with a smile: "Yes, back to the plains, this place is a dispute between Bo Jue and Yuan Shao, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
In the words.
I wasn't lonely at all, but I felt a little emotional.
The world is big, where is the real place to live in the future.
Now running around is just looking for a place to live, recruit troops, and leave a reputation.
But in fact, it is also under the fence and sheltered.
I really envy Cao Mengde.
Now he has received an edict and has been appointed as a state minister.
The whole of Yanzhou is his.
It's just that it's too floating.
Millions of people, how difficult it is......
Liu Bei held back for a whole day, in a daze, and since he heard the news, he has been in a state of dazedness.
Until the evening, after saying goodbye to Jian Yong and others, going to sleep in the inner room, and covering the couch with a cool quilt.
Hiding under the covers, I finally couldn't help laughing.
Yanzhou is afraid that it will be more chaotic now, and there is a possibility of going anywhere in the future, and even ...... You can figure it out more.
……
Three days later.
Xun Xiao's letter has arrived again.
