Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 366: Cao Cao moved to Xiacheng
Latest URL: "General, the enemy has retreated!"
Beijing State, Zhou Yafu, who was attacked by Zhao Gongzi, insisted, and abruptly delayed Zhao Gongzi in Beihai Guoju County. Zhao Gongzi knew that Cao Cao had been annexed and that the situation was over, so he ordered a retreat.
Taishan County, Li Guang, Yang Ye, Du Ruhui defended the city and repelled the invading Tian Ji and Tian Dan. Seeing the withdrawal of the army of Tian Qi, the governor of Qingzhou, the defenders of Taishan County breathed a sigh of relief.
Chutian's sphere of influence has almost no enemy troops, and the surrounding princes shrink their forces.
Chutian dispatched Du Ruhui to Puyang to govern Yanzhou. At the same time, he used a group of Yanzhou nobility, Cheng Yu, Man Chong, Xue Ti and others, to ensure the interests of Yanzhou aristocratic families. As a non-local family, Du Rumei is not prone to bias in managing the Yanzhou family. If a Xuzhou family is airborne, it is estimated that there will be another battle between Yanzhou and Xuzhou.
"Yanzhou has ten counties, Dongjun, Chenliu, Jiyin, Shanyang, Renchengguo, Dongpingguo, Luguo, Taishan County, and Jibeiguo... Among them, half of Chenliu County was occupied by Tang, and also That is to say, the lord has nine and a half counties. Rencheng, Dongping, Lu, Jibei and other counties have a small area. Yanzhou is said to be ten counties, and the area is almost the same as the five counties in Xuzhou. In addition, the war in Yanzhou For many years, I am afraid that the population is not as good as that of Xuzhou... Dongjun and Chenliu have only a population of more than four million."
On behalf of Yanzhou officials, Cheng Yu explained the situation in Yanzhou to Chutian and submitted the population account books of Dongjun and Chenliu. Obviously, Cao Cao conducted household registration statistics at the suggestion of Yiren's disciples.
Yanzhou's successive wars caused the population of the two major counties, Dongjun and Chenliu, to drop sharply, and many people fled to Xuzhou. Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou have a large number of people pouring into Xuzhou. Therefore, Cheng Yu believes that the population of Xuzhou is more than that of Yanzhou, which is not false.
Chutian looked through the two account books: "There should be a lot of people hiding in the docks, mountains, and manors because of the war, so the county magistrates in various places will include these refugees in the account books."
Chutian suspects that hundreds of thousands or millions of people have been hidden. This is also very common. For example, in the Wubao of Xu Chu's family, there are tens of thousands of refugees, and they do not pay taxes. For the hidden population, Chutian will try to bring them into the jurisdiction of the government.
Cheng Yu said: "Let me take orders."
Cheng Yu is one of Cao Cao's most important advisers and has made a lot of contributions to Cao Cao.
[Name]: Cheng Yu
[Commander]: 74 [Force]: 49 [Intelligence]: 95 [Politics]: 84 [Charm]: 56
【Appearance】: stubborn
[Characteristic 1]: Ming in military strategy (S-level trait, when joining the army, the probability of providing military proposals increases, and the success probability of inciting and suspecting soldiers increases)
[Characteristic 2]: Brave Benyu (S-rank trait, when joining the army, troop morale +20% during temporary battles, the number of bonuses is related to your own commander, and does not conflict with the main general's trait)
[Feature 3]: Hope of Yanzhou (S-level characteristic, Yanzhou family's satisfaction with power +5%, Yanzhou family's satisfaction with power +20%; when the disciples of Yanzhou family are used as officials, improve administrative efficiency; It is not easy for the people of the county to decline)
Cheng Yu was inconspicuous in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but he was actually a strategist who made great contributions to Cao Cao's forces. If there was no Cheng Yu to guard Yanzhou, Cao Cao's Yanzhou would be completely occupied by Lv Bu, and there would be no later Emperor Wei Wu.
Currently, Chutian's advisors include Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Xun You, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Lu Su, Cao Ji and others. Such a lineup is quite impressive.
"Du Ruhui will come to Dongjun from Mount Tai, and you will help him govern Yanzhou."
Chutian sees that Cheng Yu has the characteristic of "the hope of Yanzhou", which can be used to appease the people of Yanzhou.
Du Ruhui was an outsider to the Yanzhou nobility.
Chutian made Wei Qing the governor of Yanzhou military, Du Ruhui as the chief history, Cheng Yu as the prefect of Dongjun, Man Chong as the prefect of Chenliu, Gongziwen as the prefect of Jiyin, and jointly defend the Shuotang of Yuzhou.
At the same time, Wei Qing's Yulin Corps occupied Xingyang and Hulao, while Pang Juan's Martial Army Corps occupied Fengqiu and defended together with Man Chong. The military army is the main army, while the full favorite is the ordinary defensive army.
Cao Cao's troops were disrupted by Chutian, and they were incorporated into various main armies to prevent the mutiny of Yanzhou soldiers.
The attack on Yanzhou this time has won too many good generals, and Chutian needs to spend time reorganizing the army.
Every county has a defensive corps. In fact, many counties have no need to set up a defensive corps. For example, Pengcheng Kingdom, which is surrounded by Chutian territory, can completely cut off the local defense corps, and the saved military salaries can be used to increase the number of soldiers in the main army.
As for the reorganization of the legion, Chu Tian will return to the lord's mansion and consider it in detail.
He needs to know the annual financial revenue from Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Yuzhou, Yangzhou and other places, as well as the inventory of war horses and equipment, in order to re-plan the army.
There are about 60,000 or 70,000 soldiers who surrendered in the Dongjun and Chenliu areas. With these people, one or two corps can be expanded.
After leaving some people to defend Yanzhou, Chu Tian brought Cao Cao and many generals back to Xiacheng, and placed their families in Xiacheng for surveillance. If the clan of the Cao and Xiahou clans betrayed, all the Cao and Xiahou clans in Qiaoxian County would be killed.
Cao Song had a good life in Xuzhou. Although he also knew that he was being watched by Xuzhou Mu, Cao Song had no restrictions except that he could not leave Xiacheng. In addition, there has been no war in Langya for a long time, and the people are peaceful. Cao Song brought a lot of gold and silver treasures and lived a prosperous life, so Cao Song did not complain.
Recently, Cao Song is also obsessed with frying land.
Xiacheng is about to be upgraded to a large city, and the price of land is getting higher and higher. If you buy residential houses in advance, you can make a lot of money. The control of the land by the lord's mansion has also caused the price of land in Xiacheng to skyrocket. Using real estate to obtain additional financial income and support Chutian to wage war, this is what Xia Xia Liang has been doing.
Although it is immoral for the common people to raise land prices in various counties, it can indeed bring a lot of financial revenue.
When Cao Song and Cao Cao's younger brother Cao De saw Cao Cao, they were shocked, and then told their parents that they were short-lived, and they all sighed.
"I've already said, don't raise troops, don't raise troops, what are you capable of? Can your achievements be higher than your father who was the captain? This is good, you and your father are both prisoners. The Cao family is unfortunate. , the Xiahou family is unfortunate."
When Cao Song saw Cao Cao, he immediately put on a stance of respect and blamed Cao Cao.
Cao Song fled to Xuzhou not only because of the chaos in Qiao County, but also because he was worried that his son Cao Cao would fail in raising his troops and become a prisoner.
Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "Dad, what you said is that if you knew that an unfilial son would not be a soldier. In the end, it's still someone else's clothes."
"Your father, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. Don't mess with it next time."
Cao Song saw Cao Cao admit his mistake, so he was happy.
He didn't realize that without Chu Tian's efforts to suppress Cao Cao, Cao Cao's territory would not have been so small, and it would have been impossible for him to be defeated so easily.
Cao De said: "Brother, Xuzhou Shepherd manages Xuzhou well, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, chickens and dogs know each other, and you don't pick up things on the road, why do you want to be an enemy of Xuzhou Shepherd? Xuzhou Shepherd is attacking you with a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, how can you Undefeated? If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself.”
Cao Song replied: "What your brother said is extremely, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself. Mengde, this time you come to Xiacheng, you must do more good deeds, and stop fighting and killing. Look at you. Is that the material?"
“…”
Cao Cao was speechless. There is a normal struggle for hegemony among the princes. In the end, only one force can survive. How could Cao Cao become an unjust party?
It seems that Cao Song and Cao De have integrated into the country of Langya and regard themselves as spiritual Xuzhou people.
I originally thought that Cao Song would be a prisoner in Xiacheng, but Cao Cao was completely wrong. Because Cao Song participated in the high land price, he became a wealthy businessman in Langya, and Cao De helped Cao Song manage his business.
In terms of influence in Xiacheng, Cao Cao was inferior to his younger brother Cao De.
Cao Cao, Ding, Bian, Cao Ang and others were helped by Cao Song and Cao De and lived in Xiacheng.
Cao Cao heard that Lu Zhi, Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong and other great scholars lived in Xiacheng, so he came to visit. In front of Lu Zhi and others, Cao Cao was still a junior.
"Xuzhou Mu has the ambition to pacify the world. How many years can we old men live? We will rely on you to pacify the troubled world in the future."
Lu Zhi saw Cao Cao and told Cao Cao, but Cao Cao agreed. The reputation of the other party was too high, and Cao Cao served as a nominal prefect of Yanzhou for another year. Compared with Lu Zhi and others, he was far behind.
Aristocratic families, big families, and wealthy merchants in Xuzhou know that Cao Cao and a group of generals live in Xiacheng.
The generals of the Cao clan and Xiahou clan are also temporarily living in Xiacheng, waiting for appointment.
Cao Cao and others are being monitored for their every move.
Chu Tian returned to the lord's mansion to consider reorganizing the army.
The current Xuzhou forces have three Guard Corps, the Fifth School of the Northern Army, the Women's Army, the Scouting Corps, and the special Hu Ben Army and the Servant Corps.
The main corps consists of three infantry and four cavalry corps. The infantry regiments are offensive, defensive, and martial, and the cavalry regiments are Baipao, Wudi, Xiliang, and Yulin.
After acquiring a group of generals from Cao Cao, Chutian can incorporate these generals into each main army, or set up a new army.
"The Xiliang Legion can be revoked, because Xu Rong is not a general of the Xiliang faction..."
Chutian is considering canceling the establishment of the Xiliang Corps, or giving it a new designation.
The reason why it used to be named the Xiliang Army was because Xu Rong and Hua Xiong were both generals captured by Chu Tian from Dong Zhuo, and they also had Xiliang cavalry. Now the Xiliang Legion needs to be reorganized.
Chu Tian originally planned to set up an army of five good generals and appoint Cao Cao as the commander, but he thought that Xu Huang and Zhang He were not in his hands, and Cao Cao's loyalty was not high enough, so he gave up.
"What is my husband thinking?"
Xia Xia Liang came to the door with his son to greet him, and had a grudge against Chutian going to Yanzhou to fight.
"The legions need to be reorganized, and I'm considering this."
When Chu Tian saw his son, he didn't look like he was wrinkled when he was born.
Xia Xia Liang said: "I have heard that Cao Cao is under house arrest in Xiacheng. Cao Cao is a hero, and few people can restrain him."
"This is exactly what I'm worried about. I can only use loyalty to judge whether Cao Cao is rebellious. In addition, let Cao Cao come back and report to me at all times. Once the loyalty drops, we will send Wei Qing to replace him. Cao Cao Don't dare to be presumptuous in front of Wei Qing."
Chutian has a way to monitor Cao Cao.
Chu Tian returned to the lord's mansion. The lord's mansion originally had a small number of maids, but in order to take care of the born young master, the lord's mansion now employs dozens of maids.
"Why is she in the backyard?"
Chutian frowned when she saw Joan of Arc came to visit.
"Only if she has something to worry about will she temporarily give up thinking about returning to France."
It makes sense when it's cold in summer.
"I plan to reorganize the army and then march into Qingzhou. Except for Pingyuan County to the north of the Yellow River, Jinan, Qi, and Le'an to the south of the Yellow River will all be captured. Then I will show the court, please be named General Zhendong, and then promote everyone individually. How about you as Xuzhou Shepherd?"
"Xuzhou Mu? How about you?"
Xia Xia Liang couldn't help but be surprised to see Chu Tian ceding the position of Xuzhou Shepherd to himself. You must know that Xuzhou is the core site of Chutian and has the largest population.
"I served as the shepherd of Yanzhou, and personally suppressed the family in Yanzhou. In the future, whether I fought against Yuzhou, Guanzhong or Hebei, the main army needed to be placed in Yanzhou, so I had to focus on Yanzhou."
Chutian believes that he needs to serve as the shepherd of Yanzhou, completely eliminate Cao Cao's influence in Yanzhou, and digest Yanzhou's territory. If most of the territory of Qingzhou is captured, a Qingzhou governor must be established. Chutian also has the personnel of the Qingzhou governor.
"Li Kui worked hard and made a lot of money, and could be the prefect of Qingzhou. Once Qingzhou is won, Qingzhou is less important than Yanzhou and Xuzhou, so there is no prefectural shepherd, and an army can be dispatched along the Yellow River to defend."
Chu Tian thinks of the low-key Li Kui.
As an imperial civil servant, Li Kui is naturally handy in governing Qingzhou.
Qingzhou suffered more damage than Xuzhou and Yanzhou. The Qingzhou Yellow Turban Catastrophe broke out successively, and there was a series of battles in which Chutian attacked Qingzhou.
"Are you going to Yanzhou to deal with internal affairs?"
Xia Tianliang sighed slightly. If Chutian was appointed as the shepherd of Yanzhou, he might be in Yanzhou for a long time.
"Who said that Yanzhou Mu must be in Yanzhou? There are Du Ruhui, Cheng Yu, Man Chong, Wei Qing and others in Yanzhou, so why bother. If they have urgent matters ~IndoMTL.com~ can also use the teleportation array to send them to the lord's mansion. I served as the shepherd of Yanzhou just to appease the local people. After all, I want the common people of Yanzhou to know that their state shepherd is my Chu Zimou.”
"In that case, I would also like to thank the existence of the teleportation array." Xia Xian Liang asked again, "But what should our son be named?"
When I heard the name, all the women who visited the lord's mansion came together.
Joan of Arc said solemnly: "I think it should be called, Henri de Chu of Langya."
Chu Tian directly ignored the serious Joan of Arc, which was not Dongfang's name at all.
"Chu Zheng? Chu Zhao?"
Mulan and Li Xiuning also intervened in the discussion.
Chu Tian felt a bit of a headache in the face of the naming issue. Chutian is not very particular about it.
Xia Tianliang knew Chutian's character and thought, maybe Chutian will give his son a random name.
