I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 74, the plight of the Yellow Turbans

This is actually really thanks to Xu Wei and the others. At the beginning, they wiped out hundreds of noble families in Jizhou and killed more than a hundred thousand powerful noble families. It can be said that the entire Jizhou noble family was wiped out by Xu Wei and the others. The rentier class killed everything, leaving tens of millions of acres of land free.

And now these lands have been incorporated into the country's land by Fu Bian in the name of the imperial court.He used these lands to resettle millions of refugees in Jizhou, and just like that, Fu Bian cut off the source of soldiers for the Yellow Turban Army!At the same time, he dispatched 5 troops to station in Zhongshan State, Zhao State, and Wei County to strictly control the expansion of the Yellow Turban Army to Jizhou. Under Fu Bian's tactics, the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army gradually declined.

Originally, Zhang Yan planned to take advantage of the autumn harvest to find a way to attack Jizhou, because he knew that half of Jizhou had no autumn seeds due to the war. Even if Fu Bian had captured food, it would not last long. Rebel again!

But Zhang Yan miscalculated!

Jizhou is worthy of being the granary of the great Han. Even though Zhang Niujiao and the others destroyed half of Jizhou, the spring plowing of the remaining half of Jizhou was not affected, and this autumn, the remaining half of Jizhou had a bumper harvest of grain, without the help of the elites and the like. Exploitation, the food in half of Jizhou is enough to feed the people of Jizhou.

Moreover, Fu Bian did what he said, and this year he really did not collect taxes from the people, so that the people could recuperate.With enough food in the hands of the common people, it is naturally impossible to follow the Yellow Turban Army to rebel. Jizhou, which has been in turmoil for several years, has seen a stable situation for the first time.Seeing that the family has enough food for two years, Jizhou now even looks a bit peaceful for the common people.

So the people sang: "The world is in chaos, the city is a ruin, the mother does not protect the child, the wife loses her husband, and the husband changes and lives in peace."

The common people have a good harvest of food, but it does not mean that he has no money and food. At the beginning, all the food Xu Wei planted in Weijun was cheaper. The grain on the land of the nobles and nobles, the entire Jizhou harvested tens of millions of grains this autumn, it can only be said that the nobles fell, Jizhou was full, and when a war came out, the nobles and nobles suffered, and everyone else benefited.

Fu Bian handed over 500 million shi of grain and 2 million yuan to the imperial court. After hearing the news, Emperor Ling, who was struggling with the war in Xiliang, said that Fu Bian was an unprecedented loyal minister in front of all civil and military officials. Fu Bian learning!
And Lingdi is a trustworthy businessman. Seeing that Fu Bian handed in grain equivalent to 5 million yuan and still has [-] million yuan, he continued to let him be the Jizhou herdsman, even if all the officials opposed him. In his opinion There are too few officials like Fu Bian who can lead troops to fight, guard one side, and make money. He hopes that there will be as many such officials as possible, so how could he dismiss Fu Bian.

After the autumn harvest, Fu Bian became famous in Jizhou, and the common people were willing to believe him!He believed that he was a good official for the people, which even affected the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who went up the mountain. He kept sending people up the mountain to persuade the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army to go down the mountain. The best land in Jizhou.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were willing to believe the words of Fu Bian, a good official, but at the same time, they couldn't stand the temptation of the fertile land, so they tried every means to escape down the mountain, but Zhang Yan couldn't stop them.

Even Fu Bian still sent people up the mountain to persuade Zhang Yan and the other leaders to go down the mountain, and let them forget about their past.

However, Zhang Yan himself and many generals of the Yellow Turban Army were a little moved. They felt that in the situation where there was no chance of winning, taking refuge in the imperial court might not be a way out!
Of course, there are those who want to join the imperial court, and those who do not agree to join the imperial court. The relatives and friends of these generals died in the hands of court officials.
Zhang Ning said angrily: "If you can't bear it, you can surrender. Did my father hide in the mountains and think about surrendering when the great virtuous teacher failed in the uprising?"

"He still has 10 people in his hands, so he wants to surrender!"

"Has Fu Bian come up the mountain?"

"He surrendered without a fight!"

"This is trying to use my father's blood to make him a Marquis and Prime Minister!"

Zhang Baiqi also said: "We don't want to take refuge in the imperial court, but everyone can't bear it anymore. More and more people are fleeing from the mountain, and those who stay on the mountain can't see hope. Everyone is arguing every day! Many Everyone left Montenegro in disappointment. Qi Gu and Yu Du took people to Mount Tai, Bai Rao, and Guo Daxian fled to Hexi. We heard that Qu Shuai was doing well in Mayi, and he defeated tens of thousands of horse thieves a while ago. So Dai took people and ran over to seek refuge with the Marshal, and asked the Marshal to take us in distress!"

After hearing what happened to Zhang Baiqi and the others, Xu Wei's people looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to say for a while.

Wang Lei even said angrily: "This Fu Bian didn't take away our credit. At the beginning, Wei County's food was planted by us with hard work, but now he took it all away, and it also helped his reputation. This is simply too deceitful!"

Huang Long on the side also smiled wryly: "The commander-in-chief didn't leave these grains, so our Yellow Turban Army wouldn't be in such a difficult situation!"

Xu Wei said solemnly: "But without these grains, how many people in Jizhou will die!"

Xu Wei's contribution is not only the millions of grains cultivated, but also the preservation of tens of millions of grains in the entire Wei County. It is precisely because of these grains that the food problem has not caused famine in Jizhou this year!

Xu Wei said: "Forget it, it doesn't make any sense to say these things now! Now Mayi is undergoing large-scale development and needs a lot of talents. I can't wait for everyone to come!"

Anyway, there is a sense of friendship, and Xu Wei really lacks talents here, so Xu Wei intends to accept them, but he still has to grasp the initiative.

He said: "But there are some things that need to be explained in advance. Since you have come to Mayi, you must obey our orders and abide by our rules here. If you break the rules here, don't say that I am not sympathetic! "

Zhang Baiqi said: "This is what should be done,"

Zhang Ning said: "As long as the commander-in-chief continues to fight against the imperial court, we are all willing to be your subordinates!"

Xu Wei said: "I offended Da Changqiu Zhao Zhong. He has a high position in the imperial court. I will not get good results if I rely on the imperial court. Don't worry about this, but you must pay attention to methods and methods when fighting the imperial court. Now our strength Weak, can only develop in a low-key manner, how to fight the court, you have to listen to me!"

Xu Wei also didn't want to be dragged by Zhang Ning and the others to start a war with the imperial court. In his opinion, the imperial court would only have a few years to live. After Lingdi died, everyone would be busy crusading Dong Zhuo, and taking the opportunity to occupy Bingzhou by himself would not be easy. !
