Chapter 432 Relief for Work
……

Xu Fei returns to the village

Call everyone together, and then say to them: "I have accepted the surrender of Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian!"

After hearing this first sentence, the remnants of the Yellow Turban in front of me instantly became agitated.

"quiet!"

The powerful momentum in his body burst out, and a loud roar resounded in everyone's ears like thunder.

Everyone present fell silent again instantly.

"Xuzhou Mu has promised me to forgive our status as Yellow Turban Army. From now on, we will still be Xuzhou common people."

If we say that the quarrel just now was because they were afraid that Xu Fei, the general, would sell them out.

But after hearing this, everyone smiled in surprise.

"At the same time, Xuzhou Mu also promised to send some military rations!"

"I will distribute these military rations to you, and then you can go back to your places of origin!"

Hearing this, Ma Wu stood up first and said to Xu Fei: "General, I still want to follow you!"

"Yes, I want to follow the general too!" Another person stood up and said.

Then more people came forward and expressed their intention to follow Xu Fei.

In their minds, what would happen even if they got military rations and returned to their place of origin?It’s not just that we don’t have enough to eat and don’t have enough clothes to keep warm.

It is better to follow the general Xu Fei all the time, at least he can still eat a morsel of military rations in the future.

Even though Xu Fei persuaded them in every possible way, they still stubbornly wanted to stay.

"If you want to stay, I'll tell you in advance that you won't be able to eat military rations for long. When spring comes after winter, I will lead you to reclaim wasteland and grow food to be self-sufficient!"

Most people said they wanted to continue to follow Xu Fei, but only a small number of people couldn't leave their hometown and wanted to get food and return to their place of origin.

When Zang Ba escorted more than a dozen cars to the village.

Xu Fei gave them part of the army rations and then let them leave on their own.

As for other people who saw the food entering the village, they all had smiles on their faces.

"General Xu, I wonder when you plan to send troops to suppress the rebellion?"

Zang Ba, who entered the village with the military rations, asked Xu Fei.

"Send troops? When did I say I would send troops?"

Hearing Xu Fei's answer, Zang Ba said with a surprised look on his face: "Didn't you promise Tao Shijun that you would pacify all the Yellow Turbans in Xuzhou within three months?"

"Ha ha!"

Xu Fei chuckled twice, and then replied to him: "To pacify the Yellow Turban Army, we don't necessarily need to send troops!"

Zang Ba became even more confused about this. How could he suppress the rebellion without sending troops?
Xu Fei returned to his small square courtyard, with Zang Ba following closely behind.

At this time, Ma Wu was waiting for him in the courtyard.

"General, why did you ask me to come?"

"Ok!"

Xu Fei nodded and told him: "I have a task for you to complete."

"General please order!"

"I want you to spread the word."

"Let's just say that I, Xu Fei, accepted the surrender of Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian. I want money and food, and I will gather other Yellow Turban remnants here!"

"Everyone who comes to my place can get rid of their Yellow Turban status, have food, shelter, and land to farm, and become ordinary people in Xuzhou again!"

Hearing the news, Ma Wu was also shocked: "General, is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true, go spread the word!"

"Yes!"

Ma Wu left in a hurry.

Zang Ba on the side said doubtfully: "General Xu, is this how you plan to attract all the Yellow Turban Army and then annihilate them in one fell swoop?"

"Annihilation? Why annihilation?"

"If not, what should we do with the remnants of the Yellow Turbans you summoned?"

"There are so many people, and the military rations your commander gave you are simply not enough to feed them!" Xu Fei patted Zang Ba's shoulder with his hand.

"You don't have to worry about it, I have a clever plan!"

Now that food is available, Xu Fei has to solve the problem of housing.

He announced in front of everyone that since you choose to stay, you must listen to him.

You can eat if you want, but you have to work.

Just start with the simplest building of a house.

Whether it is built with wood, piles of stones, or built with earth and then poured with water and frozen...

Anyway, you can only eat if you work and build houses.

More work, more gain, less work, less gain!
As for those who are old, weak, sick and disabled, or who are injured and unable to work, Xu Fei can only provide thin soup every day to ensure that they do not starve to death.

In this way, the size of the originally abandoned small village became larger and larger.

But as the news of Ma Wu spread.

More and more Yellow Turban remnants are coming here.
It just so happened that Xu Fei built so many empty houses that they could live in them.

Just like those who came before, those who came later also had to work to have food to eat.

Just one month down.

This small village is almost as big as a small city, with a hundred thousand Yellow Turban remnants gathered together!
Fortunately, the military rations promised by Tao Qian continued to arrive, otherwise Xu Fei would not be able to feed them.

This is also because the remnants of the Yellow Turbans gathered here, and the rebellions in other parts of Xuzhou became less and less, so Tao Qian sent the follow-up military rations to Xu Fei.

But as the number of people increased, even if Tao Qian really gave Xu Fei all the military rations, it wouldn't be enough for him to last for long.

In addition, there are remnants of the Yellow Turban in some places, so Xu Fei doesn't come here at all.

This is what Xu Fei is looking forward to!
Those who do not come to his place to work in exchange for food are the real 'Yellow Turbans'!
Every day I know how to rob homes, harm people, and plunder money and food!
For this reason, Xu Fei asked Ma Wu to investigate the remaining information, and prepare to lead his troops to exterminate them all, and then obtain supplies.

But before sending troops, he had to meet Xuzhou Mu Taoqian.

Since leaving the task of suppressing the rebellion to Xu Fei, Tao Qian has lived in the Xuzhou Mufu in Tan County.

Tan County is not far from Xu Fei’s village.

Hurry up and get there in less than half a day.

In front of the Mu's Mansion, Xu Fei stood in front of the door, waiting for Tao Qian's summons after his servants finished reporting.

long after
A handsome young scholar walked out of the house

Seeing Xu Fei waiting at the door, he walked up to him with a smile and said, "This must be General Xu Fei and Xu!"

Xu Fei cupped his hands and said, "That's me. I wonder who you are?"

"Don't be a master of Xuzhou, Mi Zhu, whose courtesy name is Zizhong!"

Well-known, Xu Fei couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

The Mi family is a famous wealthy family in Xuzhou. In Donghai County, it is the Mi family that has the final say!

The Mi family has been in business for generations, with businesses all over the world and rich assets.

Especially in Mi Zhu's generation, the business is getting bigger and bigger. Not only is it second to none in Xuzhou, but it is also ranked among the top wealthy families in the entire Han Dynasty.

"It turns out it was Mi who did it, disrespectful!"

Mi Zhu replied with a smile: "I should be disrespectful!"

"I have long heard that General Xu is both wise and brave, and he also took the initiative to put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Xuzhou."

"Without sending a single soldier, nearly half of the Yellow Turban remnants in Xuzhou were gathered together in one place!"

"Work-for-relief! What I said is right!..."

Just when Mi Zhu wanted to continue talking to Xu Fei.

The servants in the mansion have come out to summon Xu Fei to enter!

"Mi Zhizheng, the envoy summoned me, I will go in first!"

After saying goodbye, Xu Fei entered the mansion and met Tao Qian under the leadership of his servants.

Mi Zhu was behind him, looking at his back meaningfully.
