Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 514
Huang Zhong rode his horse and passed the vanguard army that had stopped, and came to the local gentry and common people, and asked: "I am under the tent of the Hussar General of the current dynasty, and Huang Zhong is the General Yangwu. What grievances do you have? Come on."

After hearing Huang Zhong's self-report, someone immediately exclaimed: "Ah! It turned out that General Hussars came in person!"

"General Hussars has always loved the people like a son, we are saved now!"

"General Hussars, you have to decide for us! Those traitors have robbed us of all our winter food. This winter is really impossible!"

"Yeah yeah! Not only food, they also took everything of value."

Bandits pass like a comb, soldiers pass like a dog.
When this group of defenders fled, they actually treated the people so cruelly.After hearing this, Huang Zhong was filled with indignation, "Rebellious ministers and thieves are harming the common people. They act like this and want to occupy land and become king? They should be killed!"

After telling Lu Yan of the people's grievances, Huang Zhong begged for orders: "Sir, the last general is willing to be the vanguard, and must eradicate those bandits who have caused disasters in the village!"

But Lu Yan was a little silent, he was thinking about another thing, "This group of people robbed the food of the people, and it was clear that they wanted to use the people to slow down our march. If they ignore it, Cao Jun finally accumulated A good reputation will be ruined once; if you accept this group of people, how can you bring so much food to support these people?"

Lu Yan never thought that this group of people would be so vicious that they would not even leave a grain of food to the people of Anyi.But now that the two sides are facing each other on the battlefield, it is understandable for the enemy to use all means to deal with him.

After hesitating for a while, Lu Yan said firmly to Huang Zhong: "The order will be passed on, only three days of food will be kept, and the rest will be distributed to the people."

Huang Zhong asked worriedly when he heard the words: "We don't have much food. If we distribute most of it to the people, how will we fight the next battle?"

"The rebels are still attacking the Yi clan. As long as we break the siege of the Yi clan as soon as possible, the food and grass will naturally be replenished." Lu Yan explained to Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong thought for a while, and felt that although Lu Yan's choice was a bit risky, it was a good way to get the best of both worlds, so he clasped his fists and said, "Let's do it!"

After Huang Zhong left, Lu Yan ordered again: "Come here, go and invite the organizer who organized the people of Anyi to meet the army."

"Here!" The guard who was on standby at the door took the order and left.

Currently the largest family in Anyi is the Wei family, and Cai Yong was able to marry his daughter to Wei Zhongdao of the Wei family, which shows that the Wei family is a wealthy family that is right in line with the Cai family.

Wei Gu, who participated in the rebellion with Fan Xian, is the current head of the Wei family.

But Wei Gu's branch doesn't have much contact with Anyi Weike's branch, and even the two sides don't like each other a bit.

There are many branches of the aristocratic family, and there are not a few examples of each branch serving different forces.During the Three Kingdoms period, the Zhuge family represented by Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin, and Zhuge Dan who took refuge in Shu, Wei and Wu respectively, is the best example.

Wei Ke loves to study, matures early in his youth, is famous for his talent and learning, and his political vision is far-reaching, which is far beyond the comparison of Wei Gu, who brazenly launched a rebellion.

It was Wei Jiawei who organized the people outside Anyi City to welcome Lu Yan's army.

Before Cao Cao conscripted the guards, he worked from the county magistrate to the secretary and the censor.

Later, the old Cao ordered Wei to go to Yizhou as an envoy and asked Liu Zhang to send troops to contain Liu Biao, so as to prevent Liu Biao from sending troops to disturb the rear.

But when Wei Ke passed through Chang'an, he discovered that the road to Yizhou had been blocked, and he stayed in Guanzhong ever since.

Later, Wei Gu launched a rebellion, and Wei Ji saw that the rebellion of Wei Gu and others would fail, so he hurried back to Anyi to take charge of the overall situation because he was worried that his family would be implicated.

Not long after returning to the house outside the city of Anyi, news came that Cao Jun was about to arrive.

The guard of Anyi knew he was invincible, so he ran away overnight after looting the city.

Because Wei's house was outside the city and guarded by guards, they escaped unharmed.But seeing that the people in his hometown were in such a catastrophe, Wei Ji still decided to call on the gentry and gentry who stayed behind to open granaries and release grain to help the people.It is also because of this that the people in Anyi have not fled in a short period of time.

Lu Yan arranged for Huang Zhong to distribute food, and he led the army into Anyi City.After so many days of hasty marching, Iron Man should take a break.

Sheriff's Mansion, in the meeting hall.

Wei Ji was summoned by Lu Yan, and at the moment he was standing respectfully in the center of the hall with his hands down, listening attentively.

Lu Yan looked at this scholastic with a refined and elegant temperament with great interest, and thought: "This person who can be compared with Zhong Yuanchang is actually only a sixth-rank official secretary at the moment."

Wei Ji had been waiting for Lu Yan to ask questions, but there was no movement after waiting for a long time.

In doubt, Wei Ji raised his head to look at Lu Yan, but saw that Lu Yan was looking at himself with a slightly curious look.

Wei Ji was overwhelmed by Lu Yan's eyes, and took a special look at himself, thinking: "There should be no dishonesty, right?"

"Bo Yu, what do you think of the Hedong rebellion?"

Lu Yan's sudden question made Wei Ke somewhat unresponsive.

Shouldn't he be asking about the matter of Anyi County? How did it suddenly rise to the point of view of the entire rebellion?

But Lu Yan was an official, he asked a question, and Wei Ji could only answer it along the way.

"Returning to Lu Huqi, the lower officials think that whether it is the rebellion of Hedong or Hongnong, it is just the last madness of some unwilling ambitious people. After all, they will bring their own destruction."

"Oh? Why did Bo Cui say that?"

"After the prime minister defeated Yuan Shao, the trend of sweeping the world has been achieved. Moreover, the prime minister has always attached great importance to people's livelihood with the strategy of Lu Hussars. The people have a very high degree of recognition for Prime Minister Cao. Given the popular will, these rebels have nothing to do Even without the support of the people, it is like a grass without roots.”

Indeed, whether it is a warlord or a family leader, one of the most important wealth is the population. Without the supplement of their population from the common people, this group of rebels is just sitting on the empty sky.

Wei Xie really has a very high level of accomplishment in politics, the corners of Lu Yan's mouth curled up slightly, and he said, "Bo Xie has a great talent!"

Faced with Lu Yan's compliment, Wei Ji was stunned for a moment, and then a long-lost emotion rose in his heart.This feeling instantly flowed all over Wei Ke's body, and even gave him goosebumps, "Lu Huanqi is too famous."

"It's a pity that there is already a prefect in Hedong." Lu Yan suddenly sighed again.

Wei Ji was a county magistrate before, and he is familiar with governing the local area, so Lu Yan had the idea of ​​promoting him to be the magistrate of a county.Moreover, the promotion of Wei Ke can also send a signal, which is to tell other families that he, Lu Yan and Cao Cao are not completely against the family.

Seeing that Lu Yan wanted to promote himself as the prefect of a county, Wei Ji was even more moved, but it was a pity that Du Ji, the prefect of Hedong County, was already there.

Just when a little regret floated in Wei Ji's heart, Lu Yan suddenly asked again: "When I came from Bingzhou, Shangdang County happened to be short of a prefect. Would Bo Cui be willing to go to Shangdang County to show his skills?"

Shangdang County?
Although the population and economy of Shangdang County cannot be compared with that of Hedong County, it is still a county.

The county guard is the highest chief executive in a county, responsible for governing the political affairs of a county, with a rank of two thousand stones.Becoming the governor of a county is a qualitative leap for Wei Ke compared to the current official who only holds a rank of [-] shi.

Wei Ji immediately cupped his hands, and said with a little excitement in his tone: "Thanks to Lu Hushi's attention, my subordinates will definitely do their best to benefit the prime minister and the great man and the common people!"
