"In the next ......" Xun Yu thought for a long time, and wanted to speak truthfully several times, but as soon as he looked up and saw Zhang Han's concerned eyes, a wave of anger rose, and he didn't want to speak much.

After hesitating for a long time, he made up his mind and sighed: "After hearing about the law of Ming Gong, I thought about it for a long time before I made a decision. ”

Sure enough, he made a decision that went against his ancestors.

"In the future, it was decided to promote Xun's protégé and Yingchuan adviser for the Ming Duke, and use the Xun's stored grain, people and canggu to reinforce the army, thinking that the Ming Duke would set Yanzhou's plan."

Xun Yu's words were sincere, he had been thinking about this decision in his heart for a long time, and he didn't really say it until today.

And he also understands that it doesn't matter how many times he thinks about it in his heart, but once he says it, there is absolutely no room for regret.

After Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't calm down for a long time, and his expression was moved for a while, and his heart must have been moved, but he had always been used to it, and rarely showed such traces.

Xun's money and grain are very sufficient, stored in the warehouse for many years, the annual harvest of land can be at least 10,000 stones, how solid the collection is for several years, plus several generations of family property saved for officials and merchants, the capital is by no means less than the family property sold by his family.

Since Xun Yu arrived in Hebei, Cao Cao has never mentioned this matter, and he is unwilling to sting Xun Yu's innocence to the Han and show his talent to turn the tide, and fall into the reputation of a strong and virtuous minister.

Unexpectedly, today he took the initiative to mention it.

"Wen Ruo, if that's the case, I'll leave Juancheng to you."

Cao Cao came slowly and held Xun Yu's hand tightly.

This kind of self-sacrifice is certainly worth entrusting.

"Ming Gong, please rest assured," Xun Yu took half a step back, folded his hands into his wide sleeves, and bowed down, "I originally thought that the main thing was to benefit the people with benevolence and righteousness, but I could calm the people, but today I heard that Ming Gong was the only one, and I suddenly understood where the pattern was." ”

He looked slightly excited, "The Yuan family, the Yang family, etc., there are all the corporal people in the world to follow, but in the past hundred years, the Han family has gradually declined, and it is still blocked to enter the Shi court, which has proved that this method will definitely not work!" And a large number of people with lofty ideals have no way in the wilderness! ”

"When the Han Dynasty is in danger, Ming Gong can not only recruit talents with meritocracy, but also gather talents under his command! And then the scholars followed one after another, so they gathered people's hearts! ”

"At this time, Yu can no longer hesitate, so that Ming Gong's plan is stalled."

Although the scholars will not stand behind Cao Cao, these scholars from humble families and Baiding will definitely be thirsty and flock to them.

Who is talented, what kind of talent, can be Cao Gong has the final say, the road to Yanzhou's official career can be controlled in his hands, all the talents of the Xun family, if they are introduced, also have talent and virtue, and they will definitely become nobles in the future.

If they are not introduced, it will be difficult for these people to return to them in the future, so they can only part ways with the Xun family.

Rather than fall into such a situation, it is better to introduce them under the command of the Cao family, Yingchuan has many scholars, and it is a place of reputation for decades or even a hundred years, and there is no need to be much worse than the land of Qinghe in Jizhou, Xiangyang in Jingzhou, and Jiangzuo.

How many talented people can do a lot, and they can't be buried like this, or have nowhere to go.

Xun Yu knew that by doing this, Cao Cao could almost change the current form of employment, and the Cao family would no longer rely on the scholars as officials from now on.

Not only did Zhang Miao not control the local officials, but his Xun clan's greatest achievement was gone.

"Hahaha," Cao Cao laughed with relief, walked over, and put his hands on Xun Yu's shoulders, "Wen Ruo, with your words, it is better than 100,000 male soldiers." ”

"Not only Yanzhou has entrusted it to you, but I will also follow your words for this year's money, food, and talent appointments, and the appointment of officials in various places should be under your jurisdiction, so that they can also be used according to their aptitude."

Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu and Zhang Han with satisfaction, and for some reason, he always felt that the military under his command was getting stronger and stronger, and the burden on his shoulders was much lighter.

At least compared to the time when I only relied on family help to start a business, it is much better, the road of 10,000 steps is difficult, and now it is just that the pace is becoming more and more stable.

Xun Yu was deeply touched, arched his hands down, and said loudly: "Thank you Ming Gong." ”

"Eh~" Cao Cao approached, slowly approached Xun Yu's side, lowered his voice and said slowly: "Jun, if you can call me a lord one day, how good it would be." ”

Xun Yu, my heart is still too fond of the Han room.

Of course, it may not be the Han family, it is confined to the Qing reputation, it is its own bottom line self-esteem, and it will not step out.

……

At the end of April, after Cao Cao settled the tuntian affairs in Dongjun and Jibei, he obtained countless fertile fields.

Everywhere you can see the scene of children grazing and cattle grazing, and the cloth-clothed people in the fields are either in full swing and sweating, or hurried and busy to the fields.

The territory of East County is thriving.

Cao Cao spent ten days and led his army to Chenliu'an camp to implement the Tuntian military system.

On the way to Chenliu, he visited Mao Yu, who lived in Luyang County, and Cheng Yu, who lived in seclusion in Dong'e County.

After chatting with Mao Jue, Cao Cao was more sure of the current situation in Yanzhou, and had new insights and ideas on the policy of governing the people.

After chatting with Cheng Yu, Cao Cao knew that this person was a military and political all-rounder, so he asked him to be the marching Sima and go to Chenliu with him.

During the march, Cao Cao's car was in the car, and he rarely called Zhang Han to ride with him, and chatted about some matters about Chen Liu's affairs in the car.

The march itself is quite boring, because the distance is long, and this time is not wasted to discuss important matters near and far.

In addition, Zhang Han has made a lot of meritorious contributions, and the two talents recommended are very much in line with Cao Cao's mind after talking at first sight, and they also have the meaning of intimacy.

"Hehe, Bo Chang...... Cao Cao took out a map and spread it out on the case, "This time I entered Chenliu, you said that the map near it needs to be depicted in detail, and I have sent scouts to do this." ”

"Ambushes, forests, rivers and mountains are all here, and if there is anything else you need to pay attention to, you can tell me."

"I will obey what I say."

Cao Cao smiled quite easily, looking at Zhang Han with eyes full of love, I thought he was just a brave general who charged into battle, but I didn't expect to have such a talent for internal governance!

It's a bit of a man from heaven.

Zhang Han sat on the other side, leaning against the wall of the car, his brows locked and thinking carefully, "When you come to Chen Liu, you should take this opportunity to take advantage of the location, talents, and baggage in the county." ”

"There is another thing, starting from entering Chenliu, you must not treat the people lightly, because with the ambition of the lord back then, clean up the filth, take the legal code as the standard, establish a clear authority of rewards and punishments, and do things that benefit the people with benevolence and virtue, especially those who rob the people in the army in the future, will be restrained by heavy punishments."

Zhang Han knew very well in his heart that Cao Cao was the kind of ruthless person who could write poems in memory of the deceased while slaughtering the city for himself.

belongs to the list of traitors and heroes, but when he still has the "Expedition to the West" in his heart, he has a wisp of heroism.

If there are sufficient grain and grass reserves, and there is money and grain support, we can save money and expand slowly.

Then you can avoid those massacres and looting, and you can even use food to appease after the siege, which will lead to another way of heroism.

Those who know but do not do are ordinary people.

Those who do not know are sages.

Those who are united in knowledge and action can be called people who are sages in their hearts, and those who can consciously unite knowledge and action throughout their lives, and who are oriented to the path of benevolence, do not avoid difficulties and take evil with self-interest, can be called sages.

This path is difficult, and the path of sages is the way to practice.

Cao Cao is the overlord, and he also needs to cultivate the path of sages, and he must try the sweetness of benevolence and righteousness, and the taste of being admired and loved by all the people.

At this time, Cao Cao was silent for a long time, he did not restrain this military order in the army, so Cao Ren and Cao Hong, these clansmen, would plunder every time they won a battle.

But from the beginning of the army to the present, they are all robbing the Xiliang thieves under the rule of Dong thieves, although the assets of these thieves are also looted from the people, but after all, they can be used as military rations and military funds.

Now Zhang Han's words are obviously well versed in the rules of the army after the city is broken, ordinary people from the scholar clan will not clearly investigate these things, while people from the army know but will not mention it.

"Bo Chang, what do you say...... Is it for the righteousness of your heart? ”

Only then did he suddenly feel that the young man in front of him was also a person who had the world in mind.

"No," Zhang Han blinked and smiled: "If the lord can be benevolent and righteous, the people will only follow him more, so won't the executive order be supported like an arm in the future?" You have two swords, one is green and the other is leaning to the sky. Why not see it as the way to be the master? One is called benevolence, and the other is called ba! ”

"What's the other one called?" Cao Cao's face was stunned and sluggish, and he asked unconsciously.

"Tyranny!"

"Hmm," Cao Cao nodded approvingly.

Zhang Han: "......"

it? Why do you suddenly feel so upset?!

You didn't even give your daughter! Why are you!?
