Cao Thief

Chapter 666 How To Forget This Person (33)

Three shifts for five consecutive days.

Tomorrow we are going on a long trip, so there are only two more.

After returning, resume the third watch.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
It's late summer, and the weather is getting sweltering.

Cao Peng stood by the Yushui River with his hands behind his back.The river bank was bare, not even shade from the sun.Although the sunlight is not particularly violent, it makes people feel very uncomfortable.There was no wind on the river.Yushui was flowing slowly, looking weak.

"Young master, looking at the weather, it seems that something is not normal."

Lu Hao looked up at the sky, and then said softly: "It's so sweltering, there is a sign of heavy rain. I checked before, and the waterway on the side of Sunset Gathering is very narrow and seems to be not smooth. If there is a flood, there will definitely be a flood." The embankment phenomenon. The terrain to the west of Sunset Gathering is relatively low, and there are more than [-] households... Once the embankment bursts, the consequences will be unimaginable. If it is not done well, the hundred miles of good farmland west of Sunset Gathering will be submerged in flood.”

Cao Peng's heart skipped a beat.

"Is there a countermeasure?"

"Either dredging the river, or building dams, or relocating the people.

However, whether dredging the river or building dams, it is too late now, and it is not appropriate.The best way is to evacuate the [-] households west of Xiyangju and choose a place to arrange them.After winter enters the slack season, staff will be organized to dredge and repair. "

To be the prefect of one place, one has to do more than just fight Liu Bei.

Cao Peng also has to take care of the people's livelihood in Nanyang County, which has a population of nearly one million, all of whom are the people of his Cao Youxue.More than 1 households, that is, more than [-] people... It sounds like it is out of proportion to the million people.But that is also Cao Peng's responsibility, there is no shirk.

"Aside from gathering at sunset, where else is there any danger?"

Lu Mao smiled wryly and said: "It's hard to say. According to An Xian's review of Nanyang County's files, since Chuping, the rivers under the jurisdiction of Nanyang County have never been dredged. Years of wars have caused broken embankments in many places... Fortunately, there have been no large-scale disasters in the past few years, so all is well. In the second year of Jian'an, there was a dangerous situation in Rang County, but fortunately the magistrate of Rang County discovered it in time and the disaster was avoided. In this case , if you don’t pay attention, big disasters will happen.”

When Cao Peng heard this, he gasped.

"Where is Chief Wen stationed?"

"General Wei, there is no danger.

He is on a relatively high ground, even if a dangerous situation occurs, there will be no danger. "

"I mean, did Chief Wen ever know about this?"

"Well...it's not very clear."

Cao Peng thought for a while and said to Lu Mao, "Zizhang immediately went to Xiyangju to inform Chief Wen.

Let him closely monitor the flow of the Xiyangju River, and if there is a danger, even if it is forced to evacuate, the two thousand households must be evacuated. "

"But what about Liu Bei?"

"Liu Bei!"

After Cao Peng pondered for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "I will order the Yuande soldiers to enter Shiwuli and set up camp.

Once Liu Bei makes any changes, Yuande can respond quickly to contain Liu Bei's troops.Tell Lu Chang to keep an eye on Yuliangji for me.Although Chen Dao's reputation is not very prominent, he can't be defenseless.After the conscription with Wuyin is over, I will let Yangzilu camp on Yuliang Trail, which is enough to withstand Liu Bei's attack... By the way, I will send someone to inform Zijia to publish an article on Nanyang Truth, pay attention Floods occur.It is best to list some past floods and post-disaster losses to remind all places to pay attention to this matter...be prepared first, and it would be best if there is nothing wrong with it.If danger does occur, it can be prevented in advance. "

The main target of Nanyang Pravda is the powerful people from all over Nanyang County.

These people generally have high prestige, and it is relatively easy to do things.

After Cao Peng arranged the matter, he walked down the embankment.

"Remember, in the spring of the coming year, trees will be planted along both sides of the river.

Being in the fucking sun is really too uncomfortable...By the way, Zizhang, is the climate in Jiangdong worse than this? "

Lu Mao smiled and said, "It's not so hot, but it's uncomfortable."

"Ok!"

Cao Peng nodded, "Go back and write about the customs of Jiangdong, as well as the climate and geography of mountains and rivers. How about I print a book for you?"

"what?"

Lu Mao was taken aback, unable to react.

But immediately, he understood the meaning of Cao Peng's words.

Once Cao Cao unifies the north, sooner or later he will use troops against Jiangdong.The so-called customs are actually to introduce to the generals under Cao Cao's account, so that they can have a general understanding.

Lu Mao thought for a while, "This is not a problem.

But I alone may not be enough... I heard people say that my wife is a talented person, and she lives in Jiangxia.Can I ask her to help?I don't know much about the six counties in Jiangdong, so I'm afraid I won't be able to do it. "

"Is that so..."

Cao Peng scratched his head, "I'm afraid Yueying may not have time.

Moreover, she is not a person known for her talent and learning like Sister Cai, so even if she writes it out, no one may pay attention to it.In this way, I will write a letter back, and you will send it to Yingchuan Academy.My father-in-law is well-informed and has traveled all over the country.With him coming forward to compile it, it can also attract more attention and attract the attention of others.Well, after Nanyang stabilizes, you can accompany me to Lumen Mountain again.If you can invite Pang Gong out of the mountain, maybe it will be more useful... That's it, you write it down, and remind me when the time comes. "

"Here!"

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
When Cao Peng returned to Nanshan Daying, he took off his cicada clothes and put on casual clothes.

Sitting down on the handsome chair, he was about to read the official letter sent by Yang Qi, but when he heard a commotion outside the big tent, he saw a dental soldier running in and knelt down on one knee, "Master Qi, Hu Yangliu Baili hastened, and ordered people to come to deliver the letter... Zhangling Liu Hu, sent troops to capture Tangzi Township."

"what?"

Cao Peng was startled, and stood up abruptly.

"Where is the Huyang messenger?"

"Waiting outside the account."

"Let him in now."

While talking, Cao Peng bypassed Shuai's case.

At the same time, the dental soldier ran out of the big tent, and after a while, he brought in a small schoolboy.

"Liu Hu occupied Tangzi Township?"

"Exactly."

The courier looked dusty and dusty, and the color of his clothes could no longer be seen.

Perhaps he had been riding a horse for so long that he even had trouble walking... He walked in and barely stood up with the support of two dental soldiers.

"When did it happen?"

"On the night before yesterday, Liu Hu raided Tangzi Township.

Lieutenant Li was caught off guard and retreated in defeat.When the villain left Huyang, County Magistrate Kuai asked the villain to tell the prefect that General Pang had led his troops to attack and was preparing to recapture Tangzi Township.But County Magistrate Kuai thought that General Pang might not be able to succeed, so he asked the villain to remind the prefect. "

"Oh?"

Cao Peng was surprised when he heard this.

Pang De wants to regain Tangzi Township, but Kuai Zheng is not optimistic about it.

These two short sentences seem to contain many meanings: first, Kuai Zheng did not agree with Pound's dispatch of troops, and he attacked by force; .He at least knew that Pang De was Cao Peng's confidant.But he did not shy away from thinking that Pound might fail... This seemed to tell Cao Peng that his opponent might be stronger than Pound.

Cao Peng is very aware of Pound's ability.

An enemy that even Pound might not be an opponent?

In Jingzhou, there are such capable people!

Cao Peng was stunned for a moment...

Counting with fingers, it seems that there are not too many generals in Jingzhou who can stand on their own.

Wen Pin counts as one, and Wang Wei is not bad either.

Of these two people, one was met by Cao Peng, and the other was told by Deng Ji to Deng Zhi before Cao Peng set off.

However, Deng Ji's original words were that Wang Wei was his boss and was very capable.If this person is hostile to you, you have to be more careful... If possible, saving his life can be regarded as repaying the kindness of knowing me back then.In other words, Deng Ji believes that Wang Wei may not be Cao Peng's opponent.

But besides these two, who else?

Cai Mao Zhang Yun?

That is the general of the navy, and the land battle is scum...

Liu Pan?Should not be!
He is a son of Liu Biao's family, in terms of status, he is above Liu Hu, how can he be inferior to Liu Hu?It is even more impossible for Liu Hu, who is brave and intrepid, is not worth mentioning.

"Enemy general, who is it?"

"Magistrate Kuai said that the enemy general was named Huang Zhong.

The county magistrate reminded the prefect that Huang Zhong is old, but he should not be underestimated... During the Xiping period, this man was the confidant of the prefect Qin Jie.During the Taipingdao Rebellion, Zhang Man surrounded the city with millions of yellow scarves, but this man rushed into the rebellious army and almost lost his life.Although Huang Hansheng was older, he was still brave.General Pang is probably not Huang Zhong's opponent.If you attack Tangzi Township rashly, it is very likely that you will be defeated by this person..."

Obviously, the herald had a good memory, and it must be because of this that Kuai Zheng sent him here.

It's just that he was talking endlessly, but he didn't realize that Cao Peng was already stunned, and didn't hear what he just said at all.

Huang Zhong!

It was actually Huang Zhong, how could I have forgotten him?

Huang Zhong is from Nanyang, and he followed Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha in history.After Liu Bei seized the four counties in Jingnan, Huang Zhongcai defected to Liu Bei...

Huang Zhong, Huang Hansheng!

An old and strong general, one of the Five Tiger Generals of the Shu Han Dynasty.

After Cao Peng heard Huang Zhong's name, he never listened to the messenger's explanation.

It wasn't until Ya Bing called him that Cao Peng came to his senses, and said to the messenger, "I think you are very tired after traveling all the way.

Come, prepare a clean tent for him, let him rest well.Tell the fire head to prepare good food for him... You go down to rest first, I have my own opinion. "

The messenger led the order to retreat, and Cao Peng wandered in the army tent.

"Come here, order Lu to meet me."

After a while, I saw Lu Chang coming in a hurry.

"Ziheng, do you know Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng?"

Lu Chang is a native of Nanyang. Hearing Cao Peng's straightforward question, he was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Of course I know this person..."

"The night before, this person raided Tangzi Township."

"what?"

"I also know the name of this person, it is Lianpo in this world.

Although I ordered Pang De to go to support Huyang, I am afraid that with the ability of Lingming, I may not be able to deal with Huang Hansheng... The Huyang battle is coming, and the thing I am most worried about has happened.Liu Biao's dispatch of troops is bound to bring us great pressure.So, after much deliberation, I decided to go to Huyang to supervise the battle. "

"That Wancheng Liu Bei..."

"For the time being, Liu Bei is powerless to fight back.

He is short of food and grass, so he can only stick to it.I will hand over the military affairs here to Chief Wen.I also ask Ziheng to help a lot, and we must stabilize the situation. "

Lu Chang hesitated, "Since the prefect has made a decision, Chang will not refuse.

But, when is the prefect going to Huyang? "

"I have ordered someone to notify Wei Yan, and General Dianman will arrive shortly thereafter.

After the explanation, I will leave for Huyang.Except for the [-] soldiers and horses of my headquarters, the rest will be temporarily handed over to you to command, so I will spend more time thinking about going to Ziheng. "

"Chang, I will live up to the eunuch's entrustment."

Lu Chang bowed to his orders.

At this moment, I only heard the report from the dental soldiers outside the big tent: "Young master, General Yuande is here!"
