[Three Kingdoms] After crossing, I opened the sick and weak main road line

The black mountain bandits in the Taihang Mountains invaded counties and counties. Jizhou sent two generals, Lu Bu and Qu Yi, to wipe out the bandits. The bandits ran out of food and grass and were unstable. When Zhang Yan broke the boat and was about to fight to the death, Qu Yi led his troops into the bandit base camp and went directly from the bandits. The rear copied their hometown.

The bandits lacked food and drink, and their morale was seriously low. Zhang Yan took away all the bandits who could fight, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled in the mountains.

General Qu Yi and Qu lead an army like a god, wherever he goes, they can find out the thieves no matter how well they hide, and kill them all the way to Zhang Yan's lair. In the entire Taihang Mountains, before they could start charging, the bandits who stayed behind disarmed and surrendered.

All the black bandits were captured without a fight, and the Jizhou army won a complete victory.

The above is the version passed to the ears of the people.

In fact, as soon as Zhang Yan took away the young men who could fight, Tai Shici began to spread the news among the bandits who stayed behind. He and Sun Ce only brought together more than 3000 people, and these 3000 people were distributed in the Taihang Mountains. It's not a problem at all to spread the news.

Zhang Yan didn't have much food and grass in his hands, and everything was tied to his cronies. The other bandits tightened their belts to live, and they had long been dissatisfied with this kind of life without enough food and clothing. Kou joined the black bandits to beg for a living in order to fill their stomachs. Now bandits can't get enough to eat, so why would they continue to work for Zhang Yan at the risk of being wiped out by the court.

When being a refugee, they might be able to ask for disaster relief food from the government. When they are bandits, let alone begging for disaster relief food, they run fast if they are not caught and beheaded by officers and soldiers.

I heard that the counties and counties in Jizhou treat the refugees very well. Not only do they take care of food and housing, but they also distribute fertile land for them to cultivate. No local ruffian would dare to grab the fertile land allocated to them by the government.

Although half of the annual harvest has to be handed over to the government, but they will not be able to survive, let alone give half to the government, as long as they control food and housing, even if all the harvest in the field is handed over, it will not be a problem.

The world is in such chaos, if they can survive, they will not leave their hometowns and become bandits. Isn't it because they have land and can't fill their stomachs, and they become refugees in order to survive.

Since bandits also have nothing to eat, why don't they try to seek refuge in the government? When the eldest son of his second uncle's cousin's aunt fled to Jizhou, he signed up for naturalization in Jizhou. Like them, he had nothing to lose Ordinary people with strength, I heard that now they not only have land and houses, but also married a wife and gave birth to a fat boy.

Who doesn't want a stable life for their daughter-in-law and children, and it's nothing if they can't keep things in their hands. The imperial court taxes are so heavy. When they are in their hometown, they can't even save things in their hands. Even eating is a problem. There is still food to eat, and as for marrying a daughter-in-law, it is not easy for them to support themselves, so they don't want to marry a wife and have children.

I just don't know if the government is willing to accept them.

They have turned into bandits, and the government's attitude towards bandits has always been to kill bandits without mercy. If they ran out rashly, what should they do if they were regarded as bandits who harassed the counties?

Well, they seem to be bandits who are invading counties.

Zhang Yan took the main force away to fight, and those who stayed in the mountains had nothing to do. All kinds of gossip spread quickly. In just a few days, everyone was eager to abandon evil and turn to good.

They are not the leader's confidantes, and it may not be of any benefit to them if the leader takes down Changshan County. Anyway, it doesn't matter where they go, why not choose a place where they can eat their stomachs and work hard?

Tai Shici is always keeping an eye on the conditions of the cottages. There must be [-] different cottages in the [-]-mile Taihang Mountains, and most of them are not good enough. If you report the location of the cottages to the army outside the mountain, you can easily level the cottages. .

Lu Bu fought against Zhang Yan's main force, and Qu Yi followed the information provided by Tai Shici to clean up the cottage.

The Taihang Mountain stretches for [-] miles, and it is not easy to complete it in half a month. It stands to reason that it is impossible to complete the entire Taihang Mountain while clearing out bandits. After successfully recruiting security, things began to get out of hand.

The thieves in the mountains were all watching the actions of the officers and soldiers, and found that they really did not kill the thieves without mercy. They immediately dragged their families and led the brothers to rush out. The number of people was so large and the speed was so fast. Tai Shici was seen going deep into the enemy's rear The detailed work is shocking.

He only knew that there were many thieves in the mountains, but he never expected that there would be such a large number of people. No wonder Zhang Yan refused to distribute food to the thieves other than his cronies. With so many people, it is impossible to satisfy everyone if you give it to anyone. It is better not to give it to anyone.

Tai Shici and Qu Yi cooperated internally and externally, and quickly gathered the bandits who had volunteered to join them. They didn't stay too long after the news of Zhang Yan's execution came from Lu Bu's side, and quickly packed up their things and left Taihang Mountain with the captured prisoners.

There are too many thieves hiding in the mountains. They only brought a few thousand soldiers and horses, and few of them can handle military affairs. God knows how busy they will be when they are registered and registered.

Qu Yi and the others brought hundreds of thousands of bandit captives, and the speed was much slower than that of Lu Bu. When they returned to Yecheng, Xun Yu had already arranged manpower to settle the refugees who had been hiding in the mountains for an unknown amount of time. .

Most of the people who hid in the mountains were young and strong women. The bandit leader was not so kind. The real old and weak women and children were abandoned when they fled.

The place of origin, age, number of people in the family and other things of all people have to be counted. Since they have arrived in Jizhou, they must obey the government's arrangement. Before the world is peaceful, they must not run around like before.

In fact, there is no need to emphasize this. Those bandits who are rushing to be prisoners will not run around. If they have food to eat, they can do whatever they are asked to do.

Tens of thousands of people gathered around the city of Ye, and the soldiers in charge of the city defense were worried, for fear that those people would suddenly launch troubles. Xun Yu Jushou didn't expect that there would be so many people. The Wanliu civilian captives were scattered and distributed to the counties and counties for centralized management. Otherwise, so many people would all gather outside Yecheng, and those who didn't know would think that Yecheng was under siege.

The weather is dry and hot, and Yecheng is bustling and bustling, with chariots, horses, merchants and merchants thronging each other, and only in the evening after the sun sets can we get some shade.

In the mansion of the State Shepherd, the vegetation is carefully pruned and hidden among the pavilions, and the servants and maids shuttle through it calmly and calmly, making the mansion even more elegant and graceful.

Qu Yi and Tai Shici walked through the quiet corridor for a long time, and walked outside the spacious courtyard. They straightened their armor and braced themselves to step over the threshold, and followed the servants who led the way to the study.

Seats are ready for them in the spacious room, and the gentle and handsome young man sat leisurely behind the desk, raised his eyes and smiled after hearing the movement, "Sit down."

The two sat down in a respectful salute, with their backs straightened and ready to answer.

"Wentai and Ziyi have worked hard in suppressing the bandits, and the summer is hot. It just so happened to come back this time to take a good rest." Yuan Huan said in a warm voice, and briefly praised him, before asking, "How many bandits have you gathered this time?"

Qu Yi replied excitedly, "There are 35 people. The specific situation will not be known until Mr. Wen Ruo counts them. However, most of the captives are young and strong. It would be a waste to let them farm the fields. We should not underestimate the number of soldiers."

There are 35 captives, and there must be 30 who can be organized into soldiers. It would be a waste of so many people to be sent to farm. Anyway, the Lord has many generals, so it is better to divide tens of thousands of people.

Tai Shici saw that his words were getting more and more outrageous, so he quickly poked him twice to calm him down, and it was fine to say some things in private, how could he talk nonsense in front of the lord.

Qu Yi was in a state of excitement, completely ignoring Tai Shici's reminder, and eloquently talked about the benefits of letting those bandits serve as soldiers, then looked eagerly at their lord, hoping to give him some soldiers.

He is much easier to dispatch than Lu Fengxian. His soldiers don't need horses. Horses are so expensive.

Being a soldier and being a bandit are two different feelings. Although he has never been a bandit, he is well-informed and knows what those bandits are like. Anyway, no matter what his status is, filling his stomach is the most important thing.

They are full of food here, and this alone can prevent most soldiers from finding a reason to go home. After all, looking at the whole big man, food can be compared with their Jizhou army is rare.

The captives brought back this time have been bandits and refugees, and it is much easier to train than recruits. As long as they can train a little bit, their combat effectiveness will be stronger than other troops after going to the battlefield. These can be said to be made out of the dead. As long as they can be cultivated, their combat effectiveness in Jizhou must be at least doubled.

In troubled times, the more soldiers the better, it is rare to have soldiers sent to your door, wouldn't it be worthwhile to let them farm the land.

Yuan Huan sat upright, thinking that people like to flock together. This is what Lu Bu said first after he came back. Select some of the captives to enroll in the army, so that the common people don't have to worry about serving in the army. It just kills two birds with one stone.

Jizhou has plenty of money and food, and it's not that they can't afford to support so many soldiers, so they assigned those captives to serve as soldiers.

It is true that Jizhou has enough money and food, but it is not possible to increase so many soldiers suddenly. At most [-] elites will be selected and distributed to the generals.

Qu Yi heard that most of the [-] elites were selected, and he couldn't help but smile. One hundred thousand is fine, he is not too small. With so many generals in Jizhou, Qu Wentai can firmly occupy the top three even if he is not ranked first. [-] elite The carefully selected soldiers can be divided into [-] for him no matter what.

With an army of [-], plus the thousands of soldiers and horses he currently has in his hand, there are many cards to bring out.

Hey, Qu Wentai is also a general who can command tens of thousands of troops.

These days, the number of soldiers and horses reported when going out is exaggerated. If there are more than 2 people, if it is a little exaggerated, he must have more than [-] troops.

As for whether the remaining bandits were farming or digging ditches to build roads, it had nothing to do with him. He was not Zhang Wenyuan, the guy who liked to lead soldiers to do corvée, and his soldiers would go to battle to kill the enemy just like him.

Tai Shici: ...

Alas, one or two are unreliable.

Yuan Huan was thinking about rewards for these generals, but he didn't show it on the surface. He just listened to the two people report the situation in the Taihang Mountains. After half an hour, Tai Shici and Qu Yi left the study together. He took out a few sheets of paper from the dark compartment and picked up a pen to write on.

With the unremitting efforts of the craftsmen, the workshop has finally figured out cheap and mass-produced paper that can also be used for writing. Although these papers look ugly and even ugly, the mere fact that they can be used for writing is enough to make the world The scholars were pleasantly surprised.

Paper is easier to carry than bamboo slips. There are so many books in the library in Yecheng for people to read. It is much easier to copy with paper. A shop specializing in the sale of paper made in the workshop, at a price that most scholars can afford. First make the paper, and then let the craftsmen study how to print the entire book.

There were seals hundreds of thousands of years ago. The principle of seals is similar to that of printing. The folks have not researched the printing technology. It is not that the craftsmen can't research it, but that there is no paper for them to print a large number of characters.

Now is just the beginning, when Yecheng Academy starts to enroll students officially, then the real tough battle will be fought.

No bloodshed and no swords, but it doesn't mean that people can't die. Once the conflict between the aristocratic family and the common people breaks out, it will not be less relaxed than the conflict between the court and the common people that aroused the civil uprising.

It just depends on who of them is better.

Qu Yi left the state mansion and looked up at the sky. At this time, he would not be able to go back to the barracks in time for dinner, so he might as well find a place to eat. Lu Fengxian lives next to him. They went to visit General Lu just after they returned to Yecheng. That guy must be He will not be so stingy that he is reluctant to invite them to eat a meal.

After going out to fight for a few days, what he was most unaccustomed to was the food in the army. He was not picky about food before, but after eating in the government office for a while, he always felt that the taste was not right when he went to the military camp.

He had inquired before that the cooks in the official office and the master's mansion were all brought by the master from Zhongshan. Not only these two places, but also the cooks around Mr. Wen Ruo, Mr. Feng Xiao, and Lu Fengxian were all from Zhongshan. I didn't know Lu Fengxian well before, so I was too embarrassed to speak up. Now that they have fought side by side, it shouldn't be a big deal to give him a cook.

Qu Yi wanted to go to Lu Bu for a meal, but Tai Shici was too thin-skinned and embarrassed to mess around with him, and just wanted to go back to the barracks to deal with military affairs. They had just returned to Yecheng, and they had to check and hand over all matters, and there was no time for drinking and merrymaking.

The two couldn't reach an agreement, and Qu Yi refused to go to Lu Bu alone, relying on his height, strength, and strength, he dragged Tai Shici to prevent him from leaving. So you punch me and kick me at the intersection.

"What are you doing here?" On the wall not far away, two stones were thrown under Xiaoba Dynasty lying there with his face covered in bruises, "Fighting is strictly prohibited in the city, let alone near the lord's mansion. Fight for a while, and the patrolling soldiers will come and arrest you all."

If there is any dispute, you can't go out of the city to fight again. You have to do something at the door of the lord's house. Later, Lu Fengxian will be attracted, and the two of them can't bear it.

Qu Yi and Tai Shici stopped their movements, followed the voice to look over, the corners of their mouths twitched and fell silent.

After a long time, General Qu spoke with difficulty, "Who is this?"

Tai Shici frowned indescribably, "If I heard correctly, it should be Sun Bofu."

It's been a long time since they saw each other, how did this kid get beaten up like this?

Zhang Yan's soldiers can't resist Lu Bu's attack, and the two sides may indeed cause accidental injuries, but this bruised nose and swollen face don't look like they were left on the battlefield. When fighting, they always come in whatever way they want, and whoever faces them with bare hands beat?

Ordinary soldiers can't beat this guy, and those who can beat this guy don't look like people who care about him, so, how did this injury come about?

Xiaobawang was bored at home for several days, finally found an opportunity to sneak out, supported the wall and flew to the ground neatly, then clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Brother, it's been a long time since I saw you, why don't you know me, little brother?" ?”

They have been brothers in the den of thieves for so long, so they can't just forget it.

Hearing the familiar voice, Tai Shici turned his eyes away from that horrible face, sighed and said, "I heard it right, it's Sun Bofu."

Qu Yi scratched his head in shock, "Who beat him like this? Is it just for the face?"

"Hmph, these are just minor injuries. I've learned a lot from a fall, and I'll definitely be able to draw next time." Sun Ce raised his chin and didn't explain who beat him like this. This was after a few days of raising him. The situation was even worse when he was brought back by Lu Fengxian, even the lord was startled by him.

A good man bleeds, sweats and doesn't shed tears. This small injury is nothing. He is also a peerless fighter who can pass thirty, no, three hundred moves under Lu Fengxian's hands. After two years and grow taller, he will surely kill the Lu Bu people. .

Before that, he had to find a way to get a good horse, and the requirements were not high, just according to Chitu's specifications.

A flash of lightning flashed through Tai Shici's mind, and he looked at the arrogant young man and asked tiredly, "Did you really fight General Lu?"

The little overlord supported the wall with one hand, put on a fierce posture and replied with pride in his eyes, "Of course, there is no fear in the fight before the battle. When the two of us fought, the soldiers and bandits didn't dare to approach. The mountain is shaking, Lu Fengxian is only slightly better, if I don't think that there is Zhang Yan behind me, I can't say whether I will win or lose."

Qu Yi folded his arms and curled his lips, "No wonder Lu Fengxian beat him in the face, this kid really needs to be dealt with."

A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and he made things difficult for Lu Fengxian on the battlefield. That guy must have saved his life for Wu Chenghou's face, otherwise how could he have the opportunity to speak out here, "Ziyi, go to visit Lu Fengxian's mansion Visiting?"

Tai Shici nodded quietly, "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

The tiger cub was wearing a medal of honor. Seeing that the two of them not only ignored him, but also turned his head and left, he hurriedly followed and shouted, "Why are you leaving in such a hurry, let's go together."

Koji: ...

Tai Shici: ...

Do you still want to be beaten?

The eyes of the two people were so obvious that it was difficult for people to ignore them. Sun Ce strode forward and explained with the attitude of someone who had come here, "General Fengxian saw that the young master was better than him, so he did this cruel thing. Here is In Yecheng, the lord is nearby, if he dares to touch the handsome face of the young master, the young master will go to the lord to complain."

snort!
