The Three Kingdoms Began with the Abduction of Luoshen - Chapter 209
Jian’an ten years in June.
Wu County, Yangzhou.
Today, Sun Quan has not moved the capital to build a business, but this is the core, and it is also the key point of Yangzhou today.
Since the chaos in the world, Yangzhou, Jingzhou and other places have also been affected. However, on the contrary to the north, although there is war in Jingyang and Yangzhou, it has not been fully stimulated.
Just like the major warlords in the north, they are deadly when they fight. The first war was very determined, Yuan Shao fought Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao fought Yuan Shao, and even the next war.
All in all, it’s a real fight.
However, the South is different. Even if they have a war, it is not to the point where they cannot be eased.
At most, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses fought each other.
Strictly speaking, the battle of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses is not a small number, but compared to the north, the gap is really a bit big, or the contrast is extremely obvious.
It is precisely because the situation in Jingyang has stabilized very early, and the forces occupying the place are relatively fixed, so the people live in peace, and there are not as many chaotic battles in the north.
So many people went from the north to the south, became refugees, and poured into the prefectures and counties of Jingyang.
Actually, that’s not a bad thing.
After all, population was very important in ancient times, but sometimes, refugees are not necessarily a good thing.
Because the refugees are basically brought in with their families, and they have no wealth, let alone fields or anything.
Another influence of the stability of the South is that the power of the family has not been greatly weakened. Unlike the North, who was crushed madly, the family also killed and injured many people.
To put it another way, the land is basically controlled by the aristocratic family. Since there is no problem with the family, it is naturally impossible for the land to be distributed to the refugees, so they are still refugees here.
These unacceptable refugees, if they are lucky, they sign a contract, or they are real refugees.
Obviously, this approach is not good.
After all, refugees have no basis for survival, and in the absence of official arrangements, they are basically a dead end.
Although it is impossible for the locality to sit idly by, but due to limited resources and frequent wars, it is impossible to supply food and grass indefinitely, which makes the situation very troublesome.
Not to mention for now.
In general, the development of Jingyang and Yangzhou is not bad.
At this moment, in the Wujun Mansion.
A young man with purple beard and blue eyes stood beside him a middle-aged man who seemed to be very loyal.
The young man with purple beard and blue eyes looked a little dignified, and said solemnly:
“The news came just now that although Cao Cao in the north has stabilized recently, he is not really planning to recuperate. It seems that he is already planning to go south and prepare for the war.”
The loyal man was stunned, with a strange expression, and said in surprise:
“how can that be?
Wasn’t it just news that Cao Cao had been attacking the Yuan family one after another and sent troops north to attack the Wuhuan? Why was he thinking of attacking us now? “
Even so, the man hesitated:
“If Cao Cao really is so ruthless, it’s really the way to die.”
However, the young man with purple beard and blue eyes shook his head slightly and asked helplessly:
“Zijing, in your opinion, what is the most important thing about marching and fighting?”
Hearing the words, the loyal man replied without hesitation:
“Except for the elites of the army and the commanders, perhaps the most important thing is the supply of food and grass. Of course, the three armies have not moved, and the food and grass will go first. Naturally, there is a reason for it.”
Hearing this analysis from the loyal man, the young man with purple beard and blue eyes nodded:
“Yes, it is indeed food. If it is normal, Cao Mengde still wants to enter Jingyang, which is indeed no different from being a soldier. But what if there will be no problem with food and grass?”
The young man with purple beard and blue eyes looked at the loyal man with a very solemn tone.
The loyal man was stunned again, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he said:
“How is this possible? Although the Central Plains is very rich, but after so many wars, the people are already exhausted, and even if the food is planted, it cannot be fully guaranteed.”
The purple-bearded and blue-eyed youth was silent for a moment, and handed the secret report to the man.
The man looked at it hesitantly, and then his expression changed several times, obviously he could no longer remain calm.
The purple-bearded and blue-eyed youth shook his head and asked:
“Zi Jing, how can you do this?”
The loyal man took a deep breath and said helplessly:
“If what is said above is true, then we are really in trouble, Cao Cao’s army is very morale, very elite, and his commanders are like clouds, and his power is at its peak.
If I, Jiangdong, start a war with them now, I am afraid it will be difficult to win, and the final outcome is simply unimaginable. Although Jiangdong is also capable of fighting now, it is really too difficult to win. “
The purple-bearded and blue-eyed youth was sluggish.
He just wanted to ask, but he didn’t expect the honest man to speak so truthfully. Fang Cai’s words made him a little helpless, but when he thought about it, it seemed like the same thing.
However, how could he be willing to ask:
“In your opinion, Zijing, if Cao Cao really comes to attack, how should I choose?
Is it war… or is it down? “
It’s really hard to say that.
Just when the young man with purple beard and blue eyes hesitated, the eyes of the loyal man changed. I saw him say:
“If Cao Cao really leads the army, there will only be one battle!”
The purple-bearded and blue-eyed youth couldn’t help but wonder, and said curiously:
“Why is this, Zijing?”
…
Why did Cheng Yaojin find them?
The reason is simple.
Before Li Shimin ascended the throne, the four were already good friends.
In addition, they are all good wines, so we can work together at this moment.
Xu Maogong looked at Cheng Yaojin and couldn’t help laughing:
“In today’s Tang Dynasty, who else can cheat you, Cheng Heizi, it seems that this person’s identity is indeed not simple.”
Qin Qiong nodded and said in a deep voice:
“According to what you said, this person should not have a royal background, so it would be a little troublesome.”
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said:
“It’s not that, although there are some entanglements, it doesn’t necessarily affect my winemaking business.
The main thing is not to annoy him, and when I earn good wine, I can’t lose his benefits. “
Yu Chi Gong sighed and said with emotion:
“You Cheng Heizi, you look simple and honest, and you have such deep calculations in your heart.”
This remark is really annoying, Cheng Yaojin said seriously:
“Youchi Lao Hei, don’t talk nonsense, just say whether to do it or not.”
Here Yuchi Gong was stunned for a moment, and then affirmed:
“All that said, I, Yuchi Gong, have no reason to retreat. It’s too much to say.”
Qin Qiong and Xu Maogong also nodded and said yes.
Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin was quite satisfied and said:
“If it’s really a good brother, then I will not hide it. The background of this person is the current Taishanghuang.”
“Your Majesty?”
Yu Chi Gong was a little confused.
Xu Maogong and Qin Qiong also looked strange, this is a big pit!
…
Dark night.
After a busy day, Li Shimin came to the Daming Palace. This was the second time Li Yuan asked him by name.
In the pavilion in the courtyard, there is a wine jar on the table.
Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and pondered:
“Shimin, did you drink the lonely wine?”
Although it was just a simple sentence, it made Li Shimin of the Ninety-five Lord feel a little nervous, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, saying:
“My son was just curious for a while, so I asked someone to take a pot of wine. It’s really rude to not understand the father and the emperor.”
Who would have thought that Li Yuan just waved his hand and said:
“Since you like to drink this wine, let’s have two drinks with Gu today. It’s not too short of time to think about it.”
Inexplicably, Li Shimin nodded.
This is a kind of fatherly majesty that makes one surrender.
The former Li Shimin also forced Li Yuan from the throne.
At this moment, Li Shimin did not regard Li Yuan as an enemy. The father and son were alone here, and family affection naturally dominated.
Coming to the table, Li Yuan filled the two of them with a glass.
So silent, drinking in the moonlight.
After half an hour, the wine in the altar was exhausted.
Li Shimin had a good drink and was also drunk.
There is a strange feeling in my heart, but I don’t know how to speak, so I can only be silent.
With the help of the maid, Li Shimin returned to the bedroom.
There lives Li Shimin’s empress, the eldest grandson Wugou who can be called a model of virtuous virtue.
“Your Majesty, where have you been, why are you drinking so much wine?”
Seeing Li Shimin returning drunk, Changsun Wugou hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a concerned tone.
Seeing that it was the eldest grandson Wugou, Li Shimin relieved his heart and said with a sense of disappointment:
“Guanyin maid, you said that what I have done over the years is right or wrong, or that it cannot be changed after all…”
The eldest grandson Wugou pondered:
“Your Majesty is going to see the Emperor Taishang…
That’s it, don’t think too much about it. Rather than feel remorse and feel sad, it is better to seek a well-being for the people of the world and the people of the Tang Dynasty, which is far better than this. “
Li Shimin was a little more awake at this moment, slowly shook his head and said:
“I’m a little drunk, I understand.”
Changsun Wugou sighed again and said:
“Actually, His Majesty’s diligent government and love for the people, and his hard work day and night, has already been seen by the Supreme Emperor.
What happened back then was unavoidable, but today, the hatred in my heart has diminished a lot. “
Li Shimin was stunned, and then said:
“I understand, I will continue to do this, my Tang Dynasty has just begun.
One day, I want the Great Tang territory to extend far beyond the Great Wall, to deter the Rong and Di from daring to invade our territory. The people of the Tang Dynasty lived and worked in peace and contentment, with no worries about food and clothing, and their families were peaceful.
This heart, heaven and earth can learn, this oath, heaven and earth are proof. “
The words fell, and Li Shimin had fallen asleep.
Changsun Wugou gave a wry smile and hurriedly called someone to carry Li Shimin in and place him on the dragon bed.
…
The next morning.
Cheng Yaojin, who was ready for everything, rode his horse to Chen’s house early in the morning, ready to give Chen Jue a loving good morning.
At this moment, Chen Jue had just woken up when he heard the human voice:
“Master, the black servant who begged for wine yesterday is here again today, and he also said that he wants to discuss a big business with you.”
Chen Jue shook his head and wondered:
“Isn’t it regretting that you want to take things back, right?”
After thinking about it, Chen Jue said seriously:
“Forget it, I’d better let this young master go to meet this guy in person for a while, lest you all suffer.”
After a simple wash, Chen Jue came to the front of the hall.
At this moment, Cheng Yaojin was sitting here.
PS, don’t worry, I will modify it later.
