The Three Kingdoms: Summoned generals at the beginning, shocking Cao Cao

Chapter 207 Disaster Relief, Mobei Xianbei

Zhang Juzheng and others reported again.

"Your Majesty, drought has covered the northern land this year, and many large rivers in the north even stopped flowing due to drought." Zhang Juzheng said.

This year's cession of land suddenly suffered a huge drought, and the world's great men were shaken.

The ministers who supervised the country tried their best to rescue the disaster and barely survived.

"Your Majesty, fortunately, the drought resistance in various places has achieved very good results. If it is the most, the production will not be reduced by [-]%."

Shangshu Pushe and Hubu Shangshu Yu Qian said respectfully.

"Pass down my edict to exempt from all taxation in the disaster-stricken areas, and let the parity storehouses sell grain. We must ensure the peace of mind of the people." Liu Bian ordered.

After killing Lao Cao in Yecheng, Liu Bian ordered that at least one huge cheap warehouse be built in various states and counties to stockpile food and grass for disaster relief.

Now it is finally possible to play a powerful reserve grain.

"Your Majesty, there are still a few places that were severely affected..." Zhang Juzheng said immediately.

With a wave of his hand, Liu Bian simply got the point.

"These places are all exempted from taxation, and then order the public warehouses of the states to release cheap food to stabilize the people's hearts!"

He thought for a while and said again.

"Let Yushitai send people to supervise and act in various places, and all rich and wealthy businessmen who dare to hoard will be dealt with by military law!"

Wei Zheng of Yushitai must be selfless and selfless to handle this matter, so Wei Zheng was given this power.

"Bo Wenqing, your Ministry of Industry has also immediately formulated a plan for labor relief. Make sure that the victims of the disaster have a bite to eat, not only this time, but also for the big men in the future."

Liu Bian gave instructions to Liu Bowen.

"Relief with labor?"

Liu Bowen savored it carefully, and then he was convinced with admiration.

Now that the natural disaster has come, although many places can dig wells to fight the drought, many people have no harvest this year.

Even with all kinds of relief, the next year or so will be very difficult.

"Your Majesty, what kind of construction should the relief recipients be asked to do?" Liu Bowen asked.

"Since Emperor Huanling, the world has been prone to disasters, and I'm afraid it will last for a long time."

The trend of history is very terrible. The tragic chaos of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties was mainly due to the frequent occurrence of natural disasters, which made the so-called Wuhu ancestors unable to survive, and all of them migrated desperately to the Central Plains.

The Wuhuluanhua in Luchen in the Central Plains, as well as the later Southern and Northern Dynasties, can be said to be caused by natural disasters.

"We should take precautions. All states and counties use labor as relief. Taking advantage of the lack of water in winter, we can replenish water conservancy, dredge rivers, and prevent future floods and waterlogging!"

Liu Bianyu said earnestly.

"Your Majesty is wise, I will definitely formulate this 'work-for-relief' strategy to save the world!" Liu Bowen said with great excitement.

Liu Bian then explained the coping strategies for all the famines one by one.

Yan Baihu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, finally raised a problem whose severity was comparable to the trouble of a great famine.

"Your Majesty, there are reports on the frontier fortresses, and the Xianbei, Qiang and Hu tribes in the Mobei grasslands also gather and migrate. There are thousands of nomadic tribes who go south from Mobei every day!"

Yan Baihu said with a worried face.

"Thousands every day?" Liu Bian was also a little surprised.

Ever since Duan Rilu's family members wiped out Wuhuan, they did not expect that the Xianbei people in Mobei would soon go south to fight for the grassland.

Although they are very afraid of the big man, but when they are hungry, those Xianbei barbarians in Mobei may make trouble and invade at some point.

"Your Majesty, it can be said that there are more and more Xianbei ministries going south from Mobei. No matter what you do, the Monan Xianbei ministries that were attached just now will also become chaotic." Yan Baihu said.

"Don't be afraid, there are thousands of barbarians every day, even tens of thousands of barbarians every day, as long as they dare to commit treasonous acts, let's kill them all immediately. Those are the military exploits of the soldiers!"

Suwei General Ran Min interjected indifferently.

In the dark, Ran Min was extremely excited about killing Hu.

Civil servants and military generals all agreed.

Now that the big man has no strong enemy, many soldiers are looking forward to killing the enemy and becoming a marquis.

Although this question came out of nowhere, Liu Bian already had an idea.

"Hundreds of years ago, when the Lin Hu Kou in Monan plundered the Zhao Kingdom, the barbarians on the grassland disappeared in one wave, and soon they reappeared into another group. It can be said that they have never disappeared."

Liu Bian turned around, pointed at the huge map of the world in the palace, and said to everyone.

"When Lin Hu was destroyed, the Xiongnu appeared. When the Xiongnu was finished, Wuhuan and Xianbei came to kill again."

"If Xianbei is in trouble now, even if all the Xianbei people are killed, I'm sure that the Dingling people in the north will continue to fill up the remaining grasslands in a short time."

"Even if Ding Lingren is defeated again, who knows what kind of barbarians will continue to appear."

After hearing Liu Bian's words, Zhang Juzheng and others fell silent collectively.

They are all military and political elites, so they can naturally know that Liu Bian is right.

"It's a pity. If the grassland is not suitable for the bitter cold, once the land can be planted, you only need to migrate [-] big men from the grassland to completely change the crops, and you won't be afraid of rebellion."

Zhang Juzheng said with some regret.

For the Central Plains Dynasty, the grassland was too difficult, and there was no benefit at all.

Once you spend your energy to fight a war, it must be a money-losing business. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty emptied his family back then.

"Your Majesty, do you intend to let all the Xianbei people be included? Back then, the Southern Huns were a group of white-eyed wolves in Bingzhou. Don't forget, Your Majesty!"

Ran Min, the general of Zhenguo Guards, said anxiously.

"The Southern Xiongnu and Wuhuan have just been dealt with, so naturally it is impossible to let these Xianbei people be attached!" Liu Bian shook his head and said.

When everyone heard the words, they felt a little bit more at ease, and they were all afraid that the emperor would do hypocrisy and hypocrisy.

"Your Majesty, there is already a solution?" Zhang Juzheng asked.

"Haha, you still understand me!" Liu Bian said with a smile.

"Ah, why didn't your majesty say it earlier!" Wei Zheng said.

"I just figured it out!" Liu Bian was very tolerant of his behavior.

This slightly disrespectful behavior just shows that Wei Zheng is stern and selfless, and can do a good job in Yushitai.

"If you want to restrain the barbarians forever and prevent them from going south to invade the Central Plains, the most important thing is to give them a way out in advance in times of catastrophe!" Liu Bian said.

"Could it be? Your Majesty plans to distribute food to the Xianbei people as well?" Ran Min asked with wide-eyed eyes.

"Hehe, how is that possible? It is absolutely impossible for the grain cultivated by the Han people to be given to the barbarians." Liu Bian shook his head in denial.

"The people of the Han Dynasty suffered a famine, and they could become refugees fleeing famine in order to survive. However, once the herdsmen in the south and north of the desert suffered a catastrophe, most of them would go south to attach themselves to the frontier fortress."

"I think that these grassland barbarians must understand that going south is definitely not the only way!"

Liu Bian slapped the map vigorously.

Pointing at the Protectorate of the Western Regions above, he said loudly.

"I plan to let the Xianbei tribes in Monan and Mobei migrate westward along the grassland, passing the Western Regions Protectorate all the way. Wei Qing is stationed there now, and then send Huo Qubing to follow up. It is absolutely guaranteed that nothing will go wrong!"

"Oh, now I understand. Your Majesty's move is called diverting trouble to the east! No, this should be to divert trouble to the west!" Ran Min said with a smile.
