The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

Zhou Cheng is the overlord of one party and Yuan Yin's current lord.

Yuan Yin knew that it was already sunset for the Yuan family.

If you want to save your own life and preserve the continuation of your family, you need to rely on Zhou Cheng.

Yuan Yin could not resist Zhou Cheng's order.

Therefore, Yuan Yin could only take Zhou Cheng's words and go back to Yuan Yao, asking Yuan Yao to find a way to get the wealthy families in Yuzhou to support another batch of grain and grass to sustain this battle.

After Yuan Yin left, Guo Jia said to Zhou Cheng:"My lord, the people's livelihood in Yuzhou is in decline. If the war continues for a long time, this year may still be a year of disaster."

After the war, there will be disaster.

Although Ji Ling did not command many troops this time, he needed to eat a lot of food.

Moreover, recruiting so many young people will also delay production.

As long as the war lasts for two months, the number of hungry people in Yuzhou will increase sharply.

How could Zhou Cheng not know?

He was a member of the Yellow Turbans and understood the reasons for the rebellion.

As long as they can have food and clothing and not starve to death, who is willing to risk rebellion.

However, in Zhou Cheng's view, although Yuzhou will cause sacrifices, it can easily hold back Yangzhou and consume Yangzhou's resources.

In this way, even if Sun Ce occupied Yangzhou, there would be no obvious benefits except increasing the burden on the army.

Moreover, bandits are more likely to appear in bad years.

These bandits will also bring some trouble to the local wealthy families in Yuzhou.

After all, most of the land resources in Yuzhou are still in the hands of wealthy families.

In times of famine, aristocratic and wealthy families may have financial resources, but if they suffer long-term losses, there will always be times when they are exhausted.

If Zhou Cheng wants to control the Central Plains in the future, he must weaken the obstacles of the wealthy families to the greatest extent.

Otherwise, it will be troublesome for Zhou Chengdu

……

In Shouchun City, Sun Ce has been feeling very worried recently.

He doesn't know how expensive firewood and rice are when he is not a family member.

Now Sun Ce is the leader of one side. He not only fights the world, but also takes care of people's livelihood.

I thought that occupying Yangzhou would be conducive to development, and taking Yangzhou's money and food would strengthen itself.

It is true that Yangzhou used to be the richest in the world, but now Yangzhou has been greatly damaged due to the war.

Not only that, the aristocratic families in Yangzhou were not even half as dependent on Sun Ce as they were on Yuan Shu.

Of course, if they didn't hope that Sun Ce could stay and resist Zhou Cheng's move south, these wealthy families wouldn't even bother to pay attention to Sun Ce.

Sun Ce secretly hated them, but he couldn't eradicate these powerful families without a reason.

There must be means and excuses.

Just when Sun Ce was upset, Zhou Yu walked in.

Sun Ce didn't notice when Zhou Yu came in, so he saw the upset on Sun Ce's face.

Zhou Yu said:"Bo Fu, is it because of the food and grass issue?"

Sun Ce had nothing to hide in front of Zhou Yu, so he said:"Sun Yi has been attacking Ji Ling's camp for several days, but failed to succeed." exhaust.

If Sun Yi cannot attack for a long time, his morale will inevitably be low.

Moreover, Sun Yi and Pan Zhang's food and grass were raised from the nearest counties.

Nowadays, there is insufficient food and grass, and people have been sent many times to urge for food and grass.

It’s just difficult for Sun Ce.

He has not stopped fighting in these years. Although Jiangdong is a small corner, it cannot support the entire Yangzhou war.

Under Yuan Shu's exploitation, Yangzhou had countless hungry people and homeless people, who would gather to make trouble at any time.

If it is not managed, it will inevitably have a greater impact on the stability of Yangzhou.

However, it was all because of lack of food.

Sun Ce knew who had food, but those people refused to take it out.

At this time, Zhou Yu said:"I recommend someone who may be able to relieve the emergency.""

"who? Sun Ce asked hurriedly.

Zhou Yu said,"Lu Zijing.""

Lu Su is Sun Quan's adviser, but Sun Quan also recommended it to Sun Ce.

Now that Sun Ce is still alive, the family does not talk about the two families.

Naturally, Sun Quan also fully assists his brother.

And Lu Su was born in a noble family and had a high reputation. Historically, Zhou Yu once asked Lu Su to borrow food, and Lu Su borrowed it simply. The relationship between the two was very good.

Zhou Yu and Lu Su played for Soochow together, and now it was time to hire people, and he also hoped to Recommend Lu Su to Sun Ce.

Because Zhou Yu knows that Sun Ce trusts him too much.

Soochow cannot only have one Zhou Yu, but also needs more heroic assistants._Fei
