The Three Kingdoms: Farmers of the Wei Dynasty, planting mountains and rivers for Emperor Wu

Chapter 0079: [Brother Split] Decisive Battle in Yecheng!!!

Jizhou.

Liyangjin.

The evening breeze is blowing, and the setting sun reflects the sky.

“Report!”

“Hedong Dajie!”

The messenger rode on a war horse and passed on the information.

He came to Cao Cao and presented the war report.

Dian Wei took it, carefully examined it, and then handed it to Cao Cao.

“Jing Jun broke the rebels, captured Gao Gan, beheaded the Xiongnu Shan Yuchuquan, and guarded Guo Yuan in Hedong County.”

“He also hunted down the Xiongnu, attacked the tribes, and captured millions of cattle and sheep.”

Cao Cao looked at the merits on the war report and felt incredible.

It’s invincible, no one can stop it!

“I’m afraid that this last million head of cattle and sheep is the reason why Jing Jun fought heroically, Guo Jia spoke Qingyu’s heart.”

To develop the breeding industry, how can it be done without cattle and sheep?

Previously, the Central Plains could not even feed people, so naturally they would not have such thoughts.

Now the situation is different!

The people have plenty of food and clothing, and the diversification of food has become their pursuit.

Meat is in short supply!

Now with these cattle and sheep, it may be possible to make up for the gap in meat in the Central Plains.

It’s just a pity that these cattle are not ploughed cattle, but beef cattle.

What’s the gap?

Not all livestock will plow the land!

Cultivating cattle and horses are cultivated from an early age, and when they are small, the farmer will train them.

It is equivalent to farming is a unique skill, just like training a dog.

When cattle are born, they will not plow the land, but they will be cultivated to let them learn.

The character of the cow should also be docile, otherwise it is easy to hurt people.

The cattle raised by the Huns can only be regarded as beef cattle.

Trained adult cattle, easy to be counter-injured.

“I already knew that Jing Jun should not be allowed to leave, otherwise our army would have taken Liyang long ago,” Cao Cao sighed.

Letting go of Xiangrui, He Chen was refreshed.

What can he do?

Continue to attack Liyangjin? The losses were a bit heavy.

Cao Cao was considerate of his subordinates and naturally unwilling to storm.

“It is estimated that Jing Jun will return to Xuchang this time to study his breeding business.”

Guo Jia guessed.

Sure enough.

Qingyu’s letter was quickly delivered, and he wanted to settle his cattle and sheep first.

A million cattle and sheep, just eating and drinking, can gnaw a mountain bald, and it is unrealistic to pull them all to Yingchuan.

So it must be distributed for farming.

This is a supplement to the individual farming of the people.

Wait until the imperial court has pacified Union Prefecture and Youzhou, and then arrange official pastures.

Perfect!

Qing Yu has already planned it.

It’s just that he pities Cao Cao, and for now, he can only choose to trust Guo Jia.

Retire for now!

The Cao army attacked Liyang for a long time and led his people to retreat.

Yuan Tan was overjoyed when he received the news.

With his own strength, he saved Hebei! Is this a big feat?

It was enough to crush Yuan Shang.

Fueled by Guo Jia, various rumors spread in Hebei.

“Yuan Tan’s eldest son was called Little Yuan Shao by Cao Gong, inheriting the talent and ambition of the ancestor!”

“Yes, Cao Gong attacked Liyang, saw that the Liyang defenders were in order, and the banner fluttered, exclaimed: Yuan Xiansi is here, Hebei cannot be taken.”

Who listens to this and is not confused? Yuan Tan is like in the clouds.

Get carried away.

“Congratulations Gongzi, He Xi Gongzi.”

Guo Tu immediately posted it to pay tribute to Yuan Tan.

He knows people’s hearts best, and Yuan Shao’s father and son were all killed by him.

“Thanks to Mr. Help, otherwise Tan would not have had this merit.”

Yuan Tan said humbly.

His character is much better than Yuan Shang.

Otherwise there would not have been so many people, bet on him.

It’s just that Guo Tu, Xin Ping and others didn’t expect that Yuan Shao didn’t choose Yuan Tan.

That’s embarrassing.

Now their old rival Fengji has supported Yuan Shang and inherited Yuan Shao’s great cause.

How could Guo Tu sit still!

“Gongzi.”

“Under Fengji, there are still 20,000 troops.”

“This is a force to be reckoned with!”

Guo Tu mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, which made Yuan Tan feel cold.

Although Cao Cao retreated, the situation facing Yuan Tan did not improve.

He was only a border army general, a feudal official, who was passed on by Yuan Shao to his clan brother.

It is to pave the way for Yuan Shang!

This also led to Yuan Tan’s power, which was inferior to Yuan Shang.

The position of the great general should belong to Yuan Tan!

“Now that the siege of Liyang has been solved, if Fengji takes the opportunity to make chaos, then Gongzi will be in danger!”

Guo Tu got as close as possible and lowered his voice.

Give Yuan Tan a sense of urgency!

After the reduction of the number of Liyang defenders, it was already less than 20,000.

This is Yuan Tan’s sore foot!

He made sacrifices for Hebei, but what did he get? Nothing.

Yuan Tan still needed to wag his tail and beg for mercy before he exchanged 20,000 reinforcements for his younger brother Yuan Shang.

He hates it!

Why did Cangtian treat him unfairly?

Why did his father treat him like this?

Cao Cao, Guo Jia’s praise, and Yuan Tan’s loss at the moment, the contrast is too great.

He couldn’t accept it.

Guo Tu knew that the time was ripe, his eyes showed murderous intent, and he said in a deep voice: “Gongzi.” ”

“It’s better to entertain Fengji at the banquet and arrange a knife and axe hand in the banquet.”

“Get rid of Fengji and control the army.”

Fengji is one of Guo Tu’s sworn enemies.

Now that Fengji is sent to the door, how can Guo Tu let it go? Kill early, clean early!

Yuan Tan also coveted these 20,000 soldiers.

You know, his military talent far exceeds Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang!

These 20,000 troops are in his hands, and they can exert the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.

How can it be sent back to Yuan Shang?

This time guarding Liyang, Yuan Shang stayed in Yecheng to watch the play, and there was no talent or virtue in any contribution.

Why sit back and enjoy it?

What’s more, Fengji tampered with Yuan Shao’s last life.

Touched Yuan Tan’s anti-scale!

If you don’t kill now, you won’t have a chance later.

Therefore, Yuan Tan set up a Hongmen banquet according to Guo Tu’s orders.

If it is just a simple celebration banquet, then Fengji will definitely not be easy to attend.

But who is Guo Tu?

Extremely smart, first-class intelligence.

He has to calculate people, and he cannot tolerate a single amount of omission.

Guo Tu asked Xin Ping to invite Fengji.

Fengji is still vigilant, and he is preparing to refuse.

Xin Ping said the conditions that Fengji could not refuse!

“After this battle, Gongzi knew the inadequacy of his ability.”

“Only when brothers work together can we keep the inheritance left by Xianzhuang!”

Fengji understood Xin’s implications.

Yuan Tan is about to soften.

He wasn’t going to just go down.

So please be an intermediary and say peace about it.

Even if Fengji is cautious to this point, he still can’t help the temptation.

He went to the feast.

As soon as Yuan Tan led the cup, Guo Tu came out with a knife and axe hand and surrounded Fengji Tuan.

“You guys… You guys…”

Fengji was sad and indignant, and he didn’t think of it.

Such a humble Yuan Tan would have such a despicable means!

“As long as my husband is willing to give up my third brother to assist me, I can let my husband have a way of life.”

Yuan Tan loved talent.

After all, Fengji is an old man who follows Yuan Shao! Even Yuan Shao was full of praise for his talent.

Guo Tu saw that Feng Ji was about to speak, worried that he was clever and really saved

How will he live in the future?

In the town of the knife and axe hand, Fengji’s head flew up, and he was killed!

Although Yuan Tan felt a pity, he did not turn his face with his First Army Division.

After all, Guo Tu is also for Yuan Tan’s good.

Yuan Tan killed Fengji and collected Yuan Shang’s 20,000 troops.

He had considerable prestige in the army and did not face much opposition.

Yuan Tan’s forces increased, and he had the prestige of breaking the Cao again.

How can Yuan Shang, a great general, be willing? He wept bitterly and cried for Fengji.

Then raise troops to fight Yuan Tan!

The two sides fought outside Ye City, and the fight was bloody and embarrassing.

Yuan Shang narrowly defeated Yuan Tan.

After all, Yecheng armor is very sufficient!

Yuan Tan led the remnants of the army to defeat and retreated to the plain area.

The more he thought about it, the more resentful he became.

Yuan Shang’s sneer, the old night echoed in his ears.

“Waste! Waste! ”

Yuan Tan woke up again and again, feeling that he could not continue to be decadent like this.

He wants to crush Yuan Shang.

Give back all the shame.

But with his strength, how can he be Huang Shang’s opponent? Yuan Shangke inherited Yecheng!

Yuan Tan thought left and right, and had not yet come up with a way.

Yuan Shang led the army to chase and kill over!

That’s right, he wants to kill them all.

Cornering Yuan Tan! Is this still a brother?

Since Yuan Shang is not benevolent, then he also blames Yuan Tan for being unrighteous.

He continued to hold the plain, and on the other side sent the messenger Simbi to the south.

Ask Cao Cao for reinforcements!

Two brothers in civil war, fought braincases buzzing.

That’s also a matter for two brothers!

It’s a pity that Yuan Tan was persecuted miserably.

What a face.

What a family business.

It doesn’t matter anymore!

Cao Cao received Xin Bi, admired Xin Bi’s talent, left him in the barracks and agreed to form an alliance with Yuan Tan!

Everything is going according to the script arranged by Guo Jia.

Cao Cao knew that the opportunity to regain Hebei had come.

Brothers attacking each other is the way to defeat!

In the seven years of Jian’an, Yezhong starved and killed – Hu 20,000 money.

The people of Jizhou were miserable and longed for Cao Cao to end the war.

They were eagerly awaiting, just waiting for the arrival of the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court!

Eight Years of Han Jian’an (203)

Cao Cao married Yuan Tan and sent a large army to Yecheng.

The army was in full swing and broke through Liyang.

Megatron Hebei!

At that time, Yuan Shang was attacking Yuan Tan, and he was directly dumbfounded when he received the news.

Liyang Jin was lost, which meant that Yecheng was difficult to protect.

Yuan Shang never thought that Yuan Tan, the old sixth, would ally with Cao Cao.

Don’t you want the glory of the Yuan clan in Runan?

He and Yuan Tan scolded each other all day long, greeting their respective ancestors.

Later, someone persuaded Yuan Shang to return to the division to rescue Yecheng.

But Yuan Shang is angry, where can he hear it?

“Wait a minute.”

“After fighting Yuan Tan, this rebel thief, it is not too late to save Yecheng. Yuan Shang has completely taken the top! ”

If he didn’t smash Yuan Tan’s corpse into ten thousand pieces, he couldn’t be angry.

Therefore, the Cao army marched into Yecheng and surrounded it.

Yuan Shang is still fighting with Yuan Tan.

This is a hard way to judge!

Jizhou was in a drought, and there was no food.

Yecheng is in dire straits and there is no rescue yet!

The immortals can’t keep it.

However, judging this person, the character is upright and strong.

No matter how much Cao Cao persuaded, he just wouldn’t surrender.

Cao Cao had to let Xin Bi give it a try.

Xin Bi came to the city to persuade the defenders, but he did not expect that the trial general Xin Ping’s family would all be killed and sacrificed.

Simbi cried and teared his heart down under the city.

Now it’s okay, the trial is iron-hearted to defend Yecheng.

As Yuan Shao’s base camp, Yecheng is solid and can be described as the world’s majestic city.

Cao Cao couldn’t attack for a while, and secretly hurt himself.

And as the army moved north to Jizhou, the supply lines became longer and longer.

Cao Cao had agreed to Xun Yu’s plan and was ready to recruit a large number of laborers to transport grain and grass.

Qing Yu was preparing for the big business of breeding, and it was hard to go down.

It hurts to transfer so much labor at this time.

“Isn’t there a fortune?”

Qingyu asked.

“Caoyun can’t reach Yecheng, and it will still be the same trouble at that time.”

Xun Yu said in a deep voice.

Qing Yu’s heart moved, and he took out the map and said, “You can build a canal from the Yellow River to Yecheng.” ”

Xun Yu was stunned, in this way, wouldn’t more labor be needed? After all, building a canal is not so simple!

Seeing that Xun Yu still had doubts, Qing Yu explained: “There is a river channel on the north bank of the Yellow River, which is Suxu, also known as Baigou. ”

“As long as this river is dredged, the transportation from the Yellow River to Yecheng can be completed.” Qing Yu pointed to Xun Yu, and after Xun Yu thought for a moment, he seemed to remember something. ”

“The flowing water in Baigou does not seem to be enough to withstand the transportation.”

Qing Yu smiled and said unimpressed: “As long as you curb the Qi water and inject it into the white ditch, then the luck will be successful.” ”

Xun Yu showed a sudden look!

Qishui is also a tributary of the Yellow River, but it is small.

Qing Yu wants to change the Qi water, inject it into Baigou, and make the huge project simple.

It is indeed convenient for transportation.

Xun Yu immediately sorted out the folds and sent people to Yecheng.

When Cao Cao saw it, he was shocked.

“Jing Jun is really a good talent for water management, so that boats can go from the Huai River area to Yecheng.”

“It’s incredible to think about!”

Guo Jia was also impressed.

For farming, Qing Yu really spared no effort!

“After the white ditch is dredged, the two sides of the strait can become good land again, maybe it will be tens of thousands or thousands of acres of business.”

“Jing Jun wakes up laughing in his dreams.”

Guo Jia teased a few words.

Unexpectedly, it caused Xun Yu to ponder!

“There is not enough water flow in Baigou, even with the infusion of Qi water, it is difficult to implement irrigation of the field?”

Guo Jia was stunned.

It seems to be such a truth! But not absolutely.

Why?

How could Qing Yu do a loss-making business.

This is absolutely impossible! Sure enough.

A few days later, Cao Cao received new drawings.

Qishui, Baigou water flow is insufficient.

There is a big river enough! Of course.

This is not the Yellow River.

Instead, it flows through the Zhangshui of Yecheng.

As long as another section of artificial canal is dug, then water can be diverted into the white ditch to replenish the water.

This canal is called ‘Licao Canal’.

In this way, the water transport that extends in all directions in Yecheng has been opened up by Qingyu! Cao Cao had a feeling of crying and laughing.

In order to transport the grain of Yecheng, open a canal?

This is not enough, another Licao canal to ripen the water transport in Baigou, and also irrigate fertile fields.

Cao Cao was confident enough to be able to take Yecheng and Hebi.

If Qing Yu’s ‘water control’ is completed, then Yecheng is expected to become the center of the world!

This is a hundred benefits and no harm to Cao Cao!

“Just let Jing Jun do it!, witness miracles! ”

Cao Cao waved his hand and agreed to Qing Yu’s plan.

Qing Yu continued to take 300,000 laborers, widen the white ditch, change Qishui, and so on.

Build a large-scale water conservancy project!

In a few years, Yecheng will definitely be able to become a grain production mecca after Yingchuan and Peipi.

Just because Qingyu and his army of servants came.

Cao Cao was responsible for the siege of the city, and Qingyu was responsible for building the basic measures.

The two cooperate with each other, and the sky is seamless!

Cao Cao wrote to the imperial court: “The great sisi Nong Qingyu is at ease in the subordinate camp, participates in the plan, and goes around the conquest. ”

“Every one is a master, a clever conspiracy, and all are decided. Big and small, poetry belly. ”

“It is advisable to enter the reward to persuade those who come later.”

Therefore, Qing Yu was made the Marquis of Wu’an for meritorious service

Cao Cao was generous and never skilful in rewards.

At the same time, Xun Yu is currently just a long live pavilion marquis!

After all, Qing Yu also has some military merits, and his promotion is relatively fast.

Liu Bang set a rule for the Han dynasty, non-members of the imperial family were not allowed to be crowned kings, and those who did not have military merit could not be made marquises.

It can be seen that the proportion of military merit occupies!

Qing Yu didn’t fight any big battles, and his promotion was relatively slow.

It is not like Lü Bu, who was able to hold the imperial court hostage at that time, and sealed it as much as he wanted.

Cao Cao promoted Qingyu all the way to the marquis of Ting, township, and county, in just a few years.

Soon after, Yuan Shangbu surrendered Lü Kuang and Lü Xiang to the imperial court.

Cao Cao completed the siege of Yecheng.

The documents for requesting help were reviewed and sent to Yuan Shang in smoke.

Yuan Shang also knew that he could not take Yuan Tan, so he had to choose to retreat, set up an ambush on the way to rescue Cao Cao in Yecheng, and broke Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shang ran for his life, lost all the banners of the silk seal, and barely saved his life, Cao Cao used Yuan Shang’s silk to persuade him to surrender the trial, but was rejected by the trial.

In a fit of rage, he flooded the city. The whole city is like Wang Yang.

Cao Cao dug the waterway in advance to besiege Yecheng.

It’s only a matter of time before the city is broken…
