My father is Yuan Shu?But I want to be a Cao thief

Chapter 242 If He Doesn’t Beg For Peace, Then Fight Until He Begs

Xiangyang, Liu Mansion.

Kuai Liang's face was somewhat anxious, and he came quickly after the announcement, and said to Liu Biao who was feeding the birds: "My lord, it's a disaster!"

"Chu Feng is here?" Liu Biao stopped his movements and asked anxiously.

"Forget it, it doesn't count!" Kuai Liang nodded: "Except for the cities near Xiangyang, the new coins introduced by Chu Feng have flooded the cities in other places."

"At first they snapped up food in our territory and raised the price very high, and now they sell food, cloth and other things that the people need at very low prices,"

"Although the price of goods has been stabilized, the premise must be exchanged for new currency to buy. Now most of the people in the territory have owned it, and even many aristocratic families have profited from it!"

Kuai Liang frowned, this move was too cruel.

Although it didn't have much impact on them at first glance, and even helped to stabilize the market price, it is extremely dangerous for the economic lifeline to be controlled by Chu Feng now!

Liu Biao's brows gradually darkened.

"My lord, the promotion of the new currency has been going on for so long, but no one has reported it. Obviously... someone below has joined forces with Chu Feng and accepted bribes!"

Kuai Liang clasped his fists, which is extremely harmful to his control of the Jingzhou regime, so I have to mention it.

"Snapped!"

The bird food in his hand fell directly to the ground, Liu Biao frowned, and his brows were fierce. He didn't expect that Chu Feng's soldiers didn't come, but a wave of bribes came first!
Moreover, the promotion of the new currency is like pinching his throat. If a war really starts, Chu Feng will directly draw his salary from the bottom of the pot, and the people in the territory will inevitably boil.

"Zirou, in your opinion, what should we do?" Liu Biao said in a low voice with his arms behind his back. Obviously, he was also thinking about how to deal with it.

"Stop the loss in time, the economic lifeline can never be grasped by Chu Feng, the subordinates think that they should immediately check the new currency exchange and open the grain shops,"

Kuai Liang said with a frown.

"But you also said that most of the people own it. Wouldn't this arouse public resentment?" Liu Biao was a little worried, and he was also thinking, what would happen if food prices skyrocketed again after containment!
After all, although Chu Feng coins are used now, the price of food is stable. To put it bluntly, as long as there are enough new coins in Jingzhou, he can also approve this thing.

As long as his subordinate grain merchants also recognize it, the new coins will still be in circulation, which is also a good thing.

"My lord, at this moment, cut through the mess with a sharp knife and expel it directly to prevent further penetration, otherwise Jingzhou will be in danger," Kuai Liang said solemnly, clasping his fists.

"Zi Rou, don't worry!" Liu Biao raised his hand, he knew the Kuai family's control over Jingzhou, and it would be good if he used Chu Feng to play Kuai Liang.

Bending down to pick up some bird food, he fed the parrot two more mouthfuls, and asked, "Zirou, you said that if we exchange a lot of new currency, so that all of us can replace the new currency, how about it?"

"My lord, don't do it. Isn't this leading wolves into the house? Once Chu Feng moves, wouldn't it be..." Kuai Liang said anxiously.

"No, no, the five baht coin market is chaotic, and it should have been eliminated long ago. As long as we have enough new coins, merchants will recognize the new coins at that time, and we can completely get rid of Chu Feng's control, right?"

"In this way, on the one hand, we can balance prices and public grievances, and on the other hand, we can also reduce the impact of the five baht money on our Jingzhou. You must know that the princes from all over the world have used the five baht money to collect a lot of our food, grass and military equipment!"

Liu Biao's face was somewhat exhausted. Before that, Jingzhou was stable, and the princes from all walks of life were using five baht to collect money in Jingzhou. This also made him extremely distressed.
So many people don't trust five baht money anymore.

Now Chu Feng's move may not be a bad thing for him!

"But my lord, even if it is exchanged for new coins, although other princes cannot harm us, Chu Feng can still print more coins to harm us in Jingzhou!"

"This is definitely treating the symptoms but not the root cause! Besides, Chu Feng is eyeing Jingzhou covetously, absolutely not." Kuai Liang hastily advised.

"Hehe, isn't using five baht coins a cure for the symptoms rather than the root cause? Chu Feng Yangzhou replaced the countless five baht coins with new coins. These money can also loot the entire Jingzhou just like before."

"Nowadays, when replacing the new currency, at most only Chu Feng will loot it alone. Isn't that a good thing? What's more, Chu Feng has invested a lot in order to stabilize the domestic price,"

"If he rashly invests a large amount of new coins in our Jingzhou, it will only damage his own reputation. We can also use the new coins to harvest in Yangzhou. This relationship will be damaged."

The corners of Liu Biao's mouth curled up, and he smiled lightly.

In his opinion, this seems to be very good news.

"My lord, even so, how can we exchange enough new coins?" Kuai Liang frowned, seeing that Liu Biao was obviously very interested in Chu Feng's new coins.

"Hehe, I'm happy to see it succeed. Aren't they promoting price stability now? Then let them continue, but the authorities don't come forward for the time being, so as not to startle the snake."

Liu Biao raised his hand, obviously thinking a lot.

"But."

"Okay, don't talk too much, step back quickly!" Liu Biao waved his hand.

"No!" Kuai Liang had no choice but to back down.

----

Jian'an four years, summer, May.

Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao worshiped the world and comforted the ancestors, and even asked Chen Lin to write an appeal against thieves and spread it all over the world.

A total of 110,000 troops, known as an army of one million, marched southward, and the sword pointed directly at Xuchang.

He even threatened to end the war before winter, to restore peace to the big man, and to restore peace to the emperor.

As for the civil and military affairs of his subordinates, he ordered Ju to be in charge of the military, Guo Tufengji, Xun You, Tian Feng and others assisted in strategy, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were the vanguard generals, and Zhang He, Gao Lan, Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong and other generals were under his command.

It can be said that there are thousands of warriors!
However, before setting out, Tian Feng was thrown into a dungeon by Yuan Shao because of his disobedience, and Tian Feng's strategy was protracted war, internal military training, and external contact with heroes.

And use the elite to compete with the banks of the Yellow River, and at the same time divide the army to attack the left and then attack the right. In short, it is to avoid and not fight, but Cao Cao has to fight.

Facts have proved that there is indeed a shortage of food in Cao Cao's army.

If Tian Feng's plan is followed, once Cao Cao is short of food, the three armies will be defeated. At that time, with Yuan Shao's fame and background, he can quickly invade Yan, Yu, Xu, and Si.

In this way, who in the world can defeat Yuan Shao?

Of course, having said that, even if Cao Cao is defeated and Yuan Shao occupies eight states, it is still difficult for the Yuan family to dominate the world. One is that Yuan Shao is not capable enough.

One is that the struggle between the heirs is too fierce, and he is bound to become Qin II.

In this battle, Yuan Shao personally conquered and marched into Liyang. At the same time, he sent Wen Chou to lead his troops to seize the Baima main road along the Yellow River, and marched to besiege Liu Yan, the general appointed by Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao was stuck in Yanjin,

So far, the chapter of the famous "Battle of Guandu" in history has officially opened.

The difference is that Cao Cao didn't have Liu Bei's backstab in Xuzhou, Guan Yu's Wanjun and Yan Liang, and not so many generals to assist him, but without Xuzhou's loss,

There are more Sun Ce and his subordinates.

Compared with the same period, there are more troops, more food, more stable rule, slightly fewer generals, and much stronger enemies.

From a positive point of view, Cao Cao is not weaker than the same period but stronger.

Overall, this battle is still difficult for Cao Cao.

----

Jian'an four years, mid-May.

Yuan Shao's general Wen Chou led a partial army to besiege Baima, and Liu Yan was in emergency many times.

In the end, Cao Cao asked his troops to stay at the Yanjin camp, led Kuaiqi to separate the white horses, and tried to break the siege of the white horses. All of these are somewhat similar to those in history.

However, after all, the wheel trajectory still affects a lot.

-

At this time,
Yangzhou, Hefei.

In May, the weather was neither cold nor hot, and the high-altitude sun was not so annoying. Many farmers weeded weeds in the fields, shedding drops of sweat.

And in Hefei, a big city, many markets are full of traffic and crowds. There are aristocratic families from all over the world, and wanderers who come here admiringly.
There are also merchants from the north and the south, and most of them are ordinary people with some spending power.

Because bridges and roads are being built across the country, in short, countless jobs have been created to increase the income of ordinary people, which also allows ordinary people to have more money.

In fact, Chu Feng was making money by spending money for the common people, and only by boosting the economy would he be able to flow more and more coins into the market in the future.

Stimulating domestic demand is the most needed right now.

Of course, agriculture is also a priority, but he has all kinds of vegetable seeds, and potatoes that have been cultivated for several generations.

Although the potatoes were abandoned, they multiplied very quickly. Judging from the current doubling, in a few years, there should be no shortage of food in the territory.

Great achievements!

In the general's mansion, there are countless documents.

On the first place, Chu Feng corrected the documents very quickly. In the past six months, Chu Feng had already mastered all kinds of internal affairs, and in the village with Lu Su and Er Zhang, he was handy.

And Yangzhou is now in the stage of rapid development!
"My lord, a letter from Jingzhou!"

At this moment, a ministry will come from outside the mansion.

Chu Feng took the letter. The letter looked very ordinary, including the words written on it, and it was signed by someone personally, which had nothing to do with military affairs.

Especially when the envelope was opened, it was all friends reminiscing about the past, and the content of the story was ordinary, but each word was marked with a pinyin character,
The combination of these pinyin characters is the content.

This is what Chu Feng cultivated over the past six months. Anbu is mainly responsible for intelligence and disguise. Now most of the operations in Jingzhou are merchants, but Anbu is interspersed.

Anbu's information is very common, but outsiders can't decipher it, or can't see the clues at all. Even if this kind of letter is robbed, nothing can be seen.

"My lord, what did the letter say?" Lu Su frowned.

"It's strange that Liu Biao actually indulged the development of the situation, and it seems that he has no intention of stopping it!" Chu Feng put the letter aside and frowned.

According to his understanding, Liu Biao will definitely not let it develop.

Do you think too much?
"My lord, maybe it's too late for Liu Biao to be happy! My lord, this coin can help him get rid of the shackles of five baht coins directly, and can stabilize the rule of the people,"

Lu Su chuckled, he mentioned it before,
"Hehe, it's interesting. Isn't he afraid that I will launch countless new coins to rob Jingzhou?" Chu Feng asked with a bit of curiosity with a chuckle.

"Master, there doesn't seem to be much difference between being robbed by five baht money and being robbed by new currency? What's more, the new currency binds us in Yangzhou, so he is naturally not worried."

"It's a big deal, just use the money we introduced to Yangzhou to exchange for supplies!" Zhang Zhao stroked his beard and analyzed carefully. At least he didn't see a big problem.

"Hehe, naive!"

"Then the money I introduced will be exchanged for supplies under my rule? Can't I send money to the people under my rule? As long as I want, I can cut off the price and money at will!"

Chu Feng squinted his eyes, this set of tricks is a skillful horse played by the old ugly.

Relying on being the currency boss, he cuts leeks around the world every day. Although it has an impact on the country, he can send money to the people by himself.

"This" the three of them pondered.

Thinking carefully, I am terrified, Chu Feng's layout is too deep.

"However, since Tao Qian obeyed, he should seize all parts of Jingbei as soon as possible, and increase the exchange ratio, and find a way to harvest other states and counties with the exchanged money. For example, Zhang Xian's territory in Jingnan."

Chu Feng arranged immediately.

"No!" Lu Su nodded: "My lord, don't you want to attack Jingzhou for the time being?"

"Don't worry, Zhang Xian will not die for a while, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will not be able to tell the winner for a while. Maximizing the benefits is what we need to do."

The corner of Chu Feng's mouth curled up, and he sneered.

"In this way, arrange for Zhang Xian's cronies to blow the wind, and let him send someone to ask for help as soon as possible, so as to make a fortune, otherwise it would be useless to fight directly."

"Remember, money is not a problem. Take a lot of bribes. What I want is the whole of Jingzhou, not to divide it with Zhang Xian. When Liu Biao is defeated, Zhang Xian has no need to live."

There was ruthlessness in Chu Feng's eyes.

"No!" Lu Su nodded,
I really respect and fear Chu Feng.

"Oh, by the way, what's going on with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao?" Chu Feng tried to ask as he took a sip of the teacup.

"Returning to my lord, Yuan Shao has assembled an army of 110,000, known as a million, and now he is gathering Liyang, ready to capture Yanjin and cross the river south."

"However, Yanjin is under the control of Cao Cao. Presumably he was worried that Cao Cao would attack him halfway across the river, so he sent Wen Chou to lead his troops to detour across the river to surprise the white horse and try to attack it."

"The specific situation of the battle is still unknown, but apart from the troops in Xuchang, Yecheng, Ruyin, etc., Cao Cao's frontal force is about [-], with [-] on the left wing, [-] on the right wing, and less than [-] in the front."

"In this battle, Yuan Shao's soldiers, horses, food, grass, armor and equipment are far beyond Cao Cao's comparison. I really don't know how Cao Cao can win this battle."

Lu Su got up and gestured to the map next to him.

Thirty thousand versus 110,000, a difference of nearly four times, and the food, grass, and military equipment are far inferior to the opposite side, and there are tens of thousands of cavalry on the opposite side. In the plains on the south bank of the Yellow River, iron cavalry is the weapon of the army.

With such a big gap in hard power, no one knows how Cao Cao won.

"It's all like this, and you haven't sent someone to ask me to make peace?" Chu Feng laughed playfully, even if he is facing Yuan Shao now, he is still at a disadvantage.

"Not yet. I'm afraid Cao Cao doesn't intend to invite peace. He asked Yu Jin to lead his troops to garrison Ruyin, obviously to guard against the lord." Zhang Hong said.

"Aren't you going to ask for peace? Hehe," Chu Feng chuckled, and then his expression was instantly gloomy, and he shouted loudly, "Then hit me until he asks for peace!"

"Do you really think I can't cure him? Hmph,"

"Decree, Taishici's Army, Lu Meng's Army, and our headquarters' Army, plus Gao Shun's camp, a total of 5000 people will follow me to the north!"

"If he doesn't beg for peace, then fight until he begs for peace!" Chu Feng's voice echoed throughout the general's mansion, and the hearts of several civil servants tensed up.
