Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 792 Letter from Jiangdong
Time passes gradually in the blink of an eye, and winter also passes slowly.

People are ushering in a new year.

During this period, Yuan Tan also received a letter from Ma Teng, in which Ma Teng also agreed to Yuan Tan's marriage proposal.

Therefore, Yuan Tan was also very happy and held a wedding for Zhao Yun and Ma Yunlu.

Ma Yunlu also got his wish and married Zhao Yun, and his mood was also very good.

Zhao Yun didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

But out of trust in Yuan Tan, he did not make any resistance.

The two also became husband and wife.

It also added some joy to the whole Yecheng.

At the same time, the whole country also received Yuan Tan's orders.

Actively prepare for the attack on Shu.

Because in the past few years, Xun Yu promoted Yuan Tan's agricultural governance in Xuzhou, and now all places in the north are also following it.

Now the population under Yuan's rule has also broken through the historical limit as a whole.

People not only have enough food and clothing, but also have surplus food in every family.

A scene of prosperity unfolded before everyone's eyes.

Yuan Tan was also pleased with this.

And the people in this Han area are not all stupid people, but they know who is the one who gave them this stability.

Everyone is also grateful to Yuan Tan.

So far, when Yuan Tan heard that Yuan Tan was recruiting soldiers, even the people who have now lived and worked in peace and contentment, they all actively participated.

I just want to dedicate my strength to it.

Some hesitant adults were driven out of the house with crutches by their old fathers. Because they were ungrateful, they angrily reprimanded them for being unfilial.

Therefore, Yuan Tan's road to conscription was extremely smooth.

The number of Yuan's army also increased exponentially.

In just a few months, it has reached more than 40.

It is still increasing now, which is somewhat beyond Yuan Tan's expectation.

After all, during this time of war, it was a matter of ten deaths and nine lives.

If it weren't for the lack of food, how many people would be willing to join the army.

But the current situation is also far beyond Yuan Tan's expectations.

Looking at the growing military strength, he was at a loss for a while.

For this reason, I am also somewhat worried that if I bring these young and strong people to the battlefield, whether it will affect the development of the current counties and counties.

Therefore, when discussing matters, there is always worry in my heart.

Jia Xu knows people's hearts very well, and immediately sensed Yuan Tan's abnormality.

So after discussing today's trivial matters, after everyone dispersed, he stepped forward and asked, "What worries does King Qi have now? Can you tell me and let Xu clear it up?"

Seeing that Jia Xu could see his worries, Yuan Tan said with a wry smile: "Wenhe is careful, but I am a little worried. I am worried that all the young and strong people will be taken away by me, so the counties will start to sow seeds in spring." Will it be affected?"

When Jia Xu heard that Yuan Tan was worried about this matter, he smiled and said, "King Qi is worried about this matter, if so, King Qi is worrying too much."

Yuan Tan was a little confused and asked, "What does Wen He mean by this?"

Jia Xu then said: "I have to thank King Yu Qi for this matter. The policy you implemented to govern the people in Xuzhou that day also promoted the use of new farming tools, which has greatly improved the farming ability of the people now. By informing my subordinates of these things, Xu thinks that this can be promoted throughout the country, so that all counties can follow suit, and after several years of hard work, the grain supply of the entire Han region has also doubled."

Yuan Tan nodded and said, "I also know about this, but what does it have to do with being young?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Isn't King Qi confused? Since people have enough food, the natural population will increase accordingly. However, the number of people joining the army is only one-tenth of the current number in Han, so even if King Qi sends troops Double the amount, and the people will be able to cope with the sowing of spring this year."

Yuan Tan was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Han Dynasty had changed so much in recent years.

I have been on the battlefield for a long time, but I didn't pay attention.

If it was as Jia Xu said, then the attack on Shu would go a bit smoother.

This made Yuan Tan couldn't help but lament the power of God's help.

It was at this time that Xu Shu also ran in with a face full of joy.

Seeing it, Jia Xu was also shocked.

This is not known how many times he saw Xu Shu lose his composure in front of Yuan Tan again.

After all, the cold-faced head of the school affairs office put too much pressure on them.

Seeing Xu Shu smiling now also made him feel particularly uncomfortable.

Yuan Tan saw Xu Shu running towards him like a child again.

It is also a bit of a headache, after all, Xu Shu is also holding an important position now, and his current status is only inferior to his own.

Its wings of power are also full, and even if it is to go out and form an independent faction at this moment, it is understandable.

However, Xu Shu still looks like he followed Yuan Tan for the first time before.

Although a little out of place, it also shows that Xu Shu has not forgotten his original intention.

Therefore, Yuan Tan didn't blame this, but asked: "Yuan Zhi is so happy, but what happy event do you have to report?"

Seeing that Yuan Tan guessed it right away, Xu Shu was a little surprised and said, "The teacher is really good, he guessed it right away."

Yuan Tan was also a little embarrassed at the moment, you came here with a happy face, even a fool could see that you came with good news.

Jia Xu on the side also couldn't stand Xu Shu's ignorant flattery, so she lowered her embarrassing head at this moment to avoid being looked down upon.

However, the person involved, Xu Shu, was a little disapproving. After all, when he came to see Yuan Tan, he lost control of his expression.

I didn't think too much about it for a while.

Yuan Tan coughed twice to ease the embarrassment, and then asked: "If you have any good news about Yuan Zhi, just tell it directly. As for other compliments, it is inconvenient to say it."

Xu Shu followed what Yuan Tan said and immediately said: "Such a master, Jiangdong came to report that Zhou Yu's illness has been cured."

As soon as Xu Shu finished speaking, Yuan Tan's face was also full of joy.

He himself had worked hard to save Zhou Yu. If the barbarians hadn't entered the country, Yuan Tan would have had no choice but to leave.

I must wait until Zhou Yu recovers before leaving.

It would not be until now that Zhou Yu recovered from his serious illness.

But it's not too late to get this news now.

Yuan Tan was also very happy about this, and said: "Gongjin has recovered from his serious illness, and this can indeed be regarded as a happy event. Even so, I can entrust the land of Jiangdong to someone."

But Xu Shu shook his head and said, "Teacher, I'm afraid this matter will be a bit difficult."

Yuan Tan was a little surprised when he heard this: "What did Yuan Zhi say?"

Xu Shu explained: "Although General Zhou Yu recovered from his illness, news spread that he would retire and no longer participate in military affairs."

"Ah?" Yuan Tan was also shocked, who knew that Zhou Yu had made such a decision.
