Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 530 It's All My Fault

After Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou and Yuzhou, he began to increase the population to Sili. Especially, he moved a large number of immigrants from Guanzhong to Luoyang, which made the ruined city of Luoyang somewhat popular. After occupying Jingzhou, he moved a large number of people to Yedu .From the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Dong Zhuo monopolized power, the princes crusade against Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and Guo Si made troubles in Guanzhong, and the Central Plains princes fought. The population of various places dropped sharply, dropping by nearly [-]%. In order to maintain enough troops, Cao Cao had to recruit young and strong soldiers. Therefore, no matter how he demolishes the east wall to make up for the west wall, he cannot conceal the indisputable fact that the population is underpopulated.

And all this seems to have turned into a vicious circle. The war caused the death of soldiers and the casualties of the people. The birth and reproduction of the people became a problem, so the population became smaller and smaller.Cao Cao and his advisers discovered this problem, so after losing the Battle of Chibi, they began to work hard to change this situation, trying not to recruit troops and grain within two or three years, so as to relieve the pressure on the people and restore national power. After Yang Xiu offered advice to Cao Cao, an important reason why Cao Cao did not send troops to the northwest for a long time.

However, neither Cao Cao nor his counselors expected that two small groups would quietly form in Yedu, one was a small group of literati composed of talented literati, and the other was the Jingzhou circle that moved north from Jingzhou.It's just that these two small groups don't attract attention because they have no power and power.

After Duanmuling entered the city, he found an inn to live in, and left three substitutes in the room. He and Ma Yunlu wandered the streets, and after walking around, they came to Ma Teng's Weiwei Mansion.Wei Wei's mansion looked very grand, it can be seen that Cao Cao gave Ma Teng a lot of treatment, but the gate of the mansion was closed, and it seemed extremely deserted. The two walked back and forth twice and no one came in or out.So, Duanmu Ling and Ma Yunlu walked around the mansion before returning to the inn.

After closing the door, Duanmu Ling said: "It seems that it is impossible to enter the mansion during the day, and the only way to escape the patrolling soldiers at night is to climb over the wall and enter."

"Then let's go tonight."

"No, let's explore the road first tonight to find out the patrol route and time of the soldiers."

The two of them had made a plan, they changed into night clothes at night, climbed the window and touched the vicinity of Weiwei's mansion, observed for three times before turning back.

"The inspection is not strict?" Ma Yunlu curled his lips.

"Miss, you didn't look carefully." Duanmuling smiled wryly, this is the gap between amateur and professional. "Did you really not notice that there is a dark whistle?"

"Ah?" Ma Yunlu was startled, why was there a secret whistle.

"Cao Cao is very careful about his father-in-law. I found at least three places. One is at the main entrance, facing someone's mansion. The windows of a room inside his wall are obviously higher than the top of the wall. The other is facing the street. On the other side, the door gap of that mansion is wider than other houses. There is also the backyard, don’t you think it’s not normal to find out that there is a beggar lying there strangely?”

"Then what should we do?" Ma Yunlu gritted his teeth anxiously.

"Cao Cao was watching so closely, it was difficult to rescue Yue Zhang, but no matter what, he had to go first. I didn't see the beggar during the day, which means he went after dark. I guess it should be at the second watch. Therefore, we have to come out before the second watch, in other words, we have to sneak in before the first watch is dark, that is to say, we only have one hour at most. Otherwise, we will have to live in the mansion for a day, but I I'm worried that Cao Cao has eyes and ears in the mansion."

"Then we'll come in and out as we go, at worst, we'll have to go again. Duanmuling, will you climb over the wall?"

"How many times have I told you that my name is Husband." Duanmu Ling corrected. "Speaking of climbing over the wall, will you?"

Ma Yunlu proudly took out Fei Lao from his bag. "With this object in hand, no matter how high the place is, I can go there."

"Miss, just put it away, aren't you afraid of making noise?" Duanmu Ling was very speechless. Flying claws are like flying claws, which can grab foreign objects, but they will inevitably make noise. "Let me teach you the arhat taught by the lord."

Duanmuling crossed his hands, and his body was not squatting on the lower abdomen. "Yun Lu, step on my hand with one foot and jump up, and I will use more force, so that you can climb up the wall and then pull me up. Don't look simple, this requires us to cooperate tacitly and grasp the strength. It's done in an instant."

"It's fun, how did Marquis Liao think of such a trick?"

"Don't ask me about that, tomorrow we will go out of the city and find a place to practice."

They didn't talk all night, and the next day the two found a private house with a yard outside the city, and gave the head of the house a large sum of money, saying that they would borrow half a day, let the house owner leave, and come back in the afternoon.That family is not rich, so they left happily after getting such a large amount of money, but they looked at Duanmuling and Ma Yunlu with weird eyes. Could it be that these two city people are using me to do something shameful? good thing?People in the city are rich and drink flower wine, but they can still think of such tricks.

Ma Yunlu was very puzzled by the owner's demeanor, and asked Duanmuling what was going on, but Duanmuling couldn't explain, so he had to urge to start practicing quickly, but Ma Yunlu put his first kick on Duanmuling's lower abdomen.

Duanmuling's face was pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. "Miss, you can't take it lightly, are you sure? You are going to step on my hand and use your strength to jump."

Ma Yunlu's face was full of embarrassment. He didn't know whether to rub Duanmuling's stomach or wipe off his sweat: "Isn't this the first time? I'll pay attention next time."

"Well, you follow my posture, and I will show you."

Duanmuling took two steps to run up, stepped on Ma Yunlu's hand with one foot, and immediately felt as if he was flying through the clouds, and fell into the courtyard with a bang.God, if I knew this was the case, I might as well bring those three substitutes here.Duanmuling is used to not asking their names, so as not to add to the sadness, especially the two newcomers in the independent camp.

"Duanmuling, are you okay, why are you so careless?"

Uh, did I accidentally?
"Yun Lu, let's switch."

"Look at you, you're upside down."

Uh, it's all my fault. "You see how I take off, you can try again later."

"It's because you didn't make it clear." Ma Yunlu pulled Duanmu Ling up.

The two start all over again.This time Ma Yunlu stepped on it accurately, with just the right amount of force.But what about people?

"Miss, you have to jump to the top of the wall first, and then stretch out your hand to pull me up. Why did you just jump in? Aren't you afraid of jumping in and flashing?"

"Hehe, I forgot about this." Ma Yunlu came out of the courtyard and said nonchalantly, "How could this flash, you underestimate me too much."

"But you can't leave me outside."

"Come again, come again. It's fun."

After more than ten times of practice, Ma Yunlu finally mastered the strength and went up the wall smoothly, then stretched out his hand, Duanmuling took off and grabbed his hand on the wall, and the two jumped into the courtyard again.

The two were tired and sweaty, lying side by side on the ground, Ma Yunlu leaned against Duanmu Ling, "It's okay now."
