Three Kingdoms: The identity of the eldest son of the Great Wei was exposed by Dian Wei

Chapter 89 Cao Chen’s Big Stroke! A million Qingzhou troops returned to Cao!!

Xu He sat down unceremoniously, while Cao Chen lifted the wine altar and poured a glass of wine for Xu He and said.

“It’s not easy for Xu He to lead so many soldiers, come and taste my brewed bar!”

“Are you the military master of Cao Jun, you look a little young, young and promising!”

After Xu He finished speaking, he directly drank the cup, but he was not afraid of Cao Chen poisoning, and he didn’t need to be so troublesome if he wanted to kill him.

Cao Chen looked at Xu He’s open-minded appearance, his face was also solemn, and said loudly.

“I also have something to say directly, Xu He’s leader still has a lot of family members in the army, so it’s better to join me and wait!”

“General Xu He should have heard of the reputation of my family lord, who treats the people more leniently, and conscription is voluntary.”

“As long as you surrender, my side will help you distribute ploughs and grain for new crops, so as to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing.”

Listening to what Cao Chen said, Xu He couldn’t help frowning, he had heard of Cao Cao’s good name, building the imperial palace and paying wages to the people.

He also sold the new type of plough, the Quyuan plow, to the people at a cost price, but the conditions offered by Cao Chen made Xu He suspicious.

Xu He’s men have millions of yellow scarves, and the crop grain and land they need are even more numerous, let alone provide daily food in the early stage.

“Master Cao, shouldn’t you be fooling me about waiting, after all, I am waiting for so many people, and resettlement should be a big problem.”

Xu He said after thinking for a long time, Cao Chen smiled, took out a few boiled potatoes from the bag next to him, and said aloud.

“This is the military food of our army, and the yield is at least twenty stone per mu on normal land, do you think it can accommodate you and so on.”

“However, at present, this crop has not been promoted on a large scale, and a large number of seed grains have been reserved, and some of them have begun to be eaten in the army.”

After Cao Chen finished speaking, he first took one and ate it, Xu He hesitated for a moment and then also picked up the potatoes to taste, the mouth was soft and fragrant, and the feeling of fullness was strong.

It was not as unpalatable as Xu He imagined, but Xu He was still a little hesitant, after all, this output was amazing, which made people a little unbelievable.

After all, ordinary crops yield a few stones per acre, how can potatoes yield so high per acre, Cao Chen continued.

“Although it sounds a little strange, if it weren’t for this, how would I have raised so many soldiers.”

“After all, when I joined the army with my lord, I didn’t even occupy a county, and if I didn’t have potatoes as military food, how could I be successively felled.”

“Although under my plan, our army has not fought many real battles, but it has never been defeated, and Chief Xu should have heard how much normal grain and grass are needed to fight!”

Xu He nodded subconsciously, starting from the beginning of the army, the food of his soldiers was consumed very quickly, and most of the time they could not eat enough.

Now that Cao Chen said that he could provide them with the opportunity to have food and clothing, Xu He chose to believe after a moment of thought, and said loudly.

“Then how is the Cao Junshi going to arrange for me to wait, it shouldn’t be so easy to settle a million people, and do the generals and soldiers of our army need to continue the campaign?”

Xu He also wanted to only know what they needed to give, after all, there was no good thing to get for no reason, Cao Chen said with a slight groan.

“There are koji plows and potatoes, as long as there is enough land, it must be able to ensure a normal diet for you to wait, but you can’t gather in a county.”

“If you wait for the surrender, I will subdue the entire territory of Yanzhou, plus Yuzhou and half of Yangzhou, you can choose.”

“Due to the war, many borderless lands have no one to cultivate, this can be cultivated for you, if you have to gather, you can only reclaim the waste.”

Xu He could certainly understand, after all, millions of people pouring into a single state and county must not have enough land, Cao Chen continued.

“You wait for millions of people, first of all, you must have your own garrison, after all, you are in troubled times now, otherwise you will also worry.”

“In addition, 200,000 elite soldiers will be selected from you and other soldiers for strict training, which is the same as the treatment of our army’s generals.”

“If a soldier dies in battle, the pension being issued is enough for a normal family to live normally for more than ten years, and will not be treated differently.”

Hearing Cao Chen say this, Xu He was relieved, they now have four and a half million soldiers, and they have not all been transferred.

And instead of letting them go and send them to death, it can be considered that there is a good way out, Xu He was about to thank him, but Cao Chen did not stop speaking.

“My family lord does not value the family like other princes, and the Hanmen people can also be officials, valuing talent rather than family lineage.”

“After you have no worries about food and clothing, the Lord Guild and I will send someone to build a school in your residence, and ask Mr. to teach you and other knowledge.”

“Young and strong people may not have this opportunity, but children of the right age can enter school and only need to bring their own food.”

Cao Chen’s last words directly made Xu He have no worries, after all, reading is simply impossible for ordinary people.

“Cao Gong is righteous, I will persuade his subordinates to join him, hoping that Cao Junshi can keep his promise”

Xu Heyan finished the last bowl of wine, bowed to Cao Chen, and walked towards the tent with the bag of potatoes.

Dian Wei and Zhao Yun added a bit of respect to the eyes of Cao Chen, and Cao Chen just waved his hand and said.

“Get on the horse, go back to the camp!”

Xu He returned to the tent and conveyed what Cao Chen said to his subordinates, and everyone was happy and agreed.

After all, now they are running east and west, marching south and going north, but many soldiers are hungry and cannot maintain a normal livelihood.

Now that there is an opportunity to settle down, everyone will surely cherish it, after all, most people are from the common people and forced to rebel.

The news quickly spread throughout the Yellow Turban camp, and millions of Yellow Turbans were shaken, and there were basically no opponents.

In order to express his sincerity, Cao Chen sent people to transport several truckloads of potatoes for the yellow towel to eat, and they were all cooked, fearing that they would be reluctant to eat them as seed food.

At the same time, Xiahou Tuan and Xiahou Yuan each led 20,000 cavalry and rushed towards all counties in Yanzhou, and all the counties they encountered surrendered.

Soon the entire territory of Yanzhou was occupied by Cao forces, and soldiers were stationed in the cities on the border of Yanzhou to prevent incoming enemies.

A few days later, Changyi County, Assassin Shifu.

Cao Chen led the generals to the council hall, and everyone’s faces became relaxed and slightly joyful, after all, it was quite easy to subdue the entire territory of Yanzhou.

After only one battle, it was still crushing, and the remaining million yellow turbans all surrendered, Cao Chen, who was sitting on the main seat, said loudly.

“This time, I have successfully conquered the entire territory of Yanzhou and collected one million Qingzhou yellow scarves at the same time, but I can’t slack off.”

“Now that our army borders the prefectures and counties under Yuan Benchu’s jurisdiction, then the border must be well guarded, and no one can reach our army’s territory.”

“While stationed in Yanzhou, we must place a million yellow scarves, this is the background of my waiting, and we must not discriminate.”

After hearing this, everyone nodded solemnly in response, and a little battle intent appeared on their faces, after all, many people had already learned why the Qingzhou Yellow Turban poured into Yanzhou.

Yuan Shao was wary, but now was not the time for war, and everyone was also suppressing their emotions, Cao Chen continued.

“Now Yanzhou is garrisoned by General Yuan Rang with 30,000 soldiers, and General Xu Rong as an adjutant general, leading more than 10,000 cavalry.”

“In addition, I have already written to the lord, and soon I will send a communication officer to help you wait and jointly govern Yanzhou.”

“After placing the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, we began to select the elites to start training and defend Yanzhou together.”

“No!”

Xia Hou Tian and Xu Rong led the way, and Cao Chen looked at the others, his face eased, and continued.

“The remaining people have arranged for their soldiers to return to Xudu with me tomorrow!”

Jizhou, Anping, Prefecture Pastoral Office, Council Hall.

Yuan Shaozheng on the main seat had a gloomy face, and the battle report in his hand was even more wrinkled by his caught, and Yuan Shao said with a long sigh of relief.

“Gong rule, what you proposed to drive the remnants of the yellow turban of Qingzhou to Yanzhou, and Liu Dai of Yanzhou Thorn Shi died in the war.”

“But now that the Cao army has subdued the entire territory of Yanzhou, and all the million yellow turbans have been surrendered, I will not continue to send troops later.”

Everyone had heard a hint of anger in Yuan Shao’s words, but Guo Tu frowned and stepped forward to say.

“Lord Qiyu, my previous plan was to contain Cao Jun, although the results are somewhat different now.”

“But the resettlement of a million yellow turbans consumes a lot of food, and Cao Jun must be in a state of trouble now.”

“I didn’t want to take down these thieves of the Yellow Turban Army before, isn’t it because it will drag down the development of me and others.”

Yuan Shao’s face eased slightly, after all, he couldn’t look at the yellow scarf rabble, and continued.

“Our army has now allocated grain, and the soldiers are ready to wait for it, whether they can continue to send troops to Youzhou.”

Guo Tu and the other Yingchuan factions fell silent, while Tian Feng and Frustrated Zhi were dazzled, and Tian Feng said loudly.

“Lord Qiyu, now that Cao Jun has newly obtained Yanzhou, he has collected a million yellow scarves, and it will take a lot of time to resettle and repair.”

“And I have been planning Youzhou for a long time, and now that the morale of the soldiers is high and the food and grass are sufficient, I agree to send troops.”

“If I miss this opportunity, when Cao Jun repairs it, I will still be restrained, and I will not wait!”

Tian Feng and the others knew that Yuan Shao wanted to send troops, and the inquiry was just a formality and a reason.

With Yuan Shao’s arrogance, he naturally couldn’t see that Cao Cao now controlled more prefectures and counties than himself, and annexing Youzhou was already in the plan.

“Lord Qi, a certain general is willing to lead an army to fight in Youzhou and behead Gongsun Zhan’s dog head to the Lord Duke.”

“Lord Qi, a certain general is willing to send troops to Youzhou, subdue all states and counties, and help the Lord Duke complete the great cause of unification!”

Yan Liang and Wen Qiu stepped forward and bowed their hands, and the two of them were Yuan Shao’s love generals, so they naturally understood Yuan Shao’s intentions.

Seeing this, the other Wen Chen military generals asked for battle one after another, and Yuan Shao looked at everyone’s enthusiastic request for battle, and the smile on his face was even greater, and he said loudly.

“Since you wait for such a suggestion, then I will send troops to Youzhou and unify the north to achieve a great cause!”
