341 Inspecting the disaster 1

In the next few days, Gu Yong led government officials to discuss internal affairs. Sima Lang led legal officials to discuss various laws, while Lu Ning and Guo Jia, Lu Su, Tian Feng, Tian Chou and all the generals studied the issue of conquest next year.

Tian Chou first said: "Lord, the Three Koreans have not yet formed the concept of a country. Now all tribes are independent. However, there are a few tribes with a little more strength and cannot form much climate for the time being. I suggest that our army first deal with Goguryeo, Woju, Yiluo, and Fuyu first. These places are plains and large, which is conducive to our army's combat, and we can quickly eliminate them. The geographical landscape of the Three Koreans is not very conducive to our cavalry fighting, so we can put them in the subsequent conquest."

Taishici said: "Brother, I also think that I should first attack Goguryeo. He has a population of more than 500,000, but there are only tens of thousands of people in Goguryeo City, and there are not many soldiers guarding the city, less than 20,000. The rest are distributed in various places. As for Woju, it is a small tribe. Although Yiluo and Fuyu each have 50,000 or 60,000 households, and each have more than 500,000 people, their city walls are surrounded by wooden fences, which is easy for our army to handle. Moreover, there are not many soldiers in the royal city, all of which are only 10,000. The rest are also distributed in various places. The place they occupy is too large and they cannot gather together at once. This is the best thing for our army's attack."

Tian Chou thought for a while and said, "Lord, our army only needs to keep 20,000 infantry soldiers in the Taofang. Lelang looked at the three Hans. I don't know that he would dare to act rashly. To eliminate Goguryeo, Yilou, Fuyu and other places, there is enough 80,000 troops. It is just that General Tuo Yi in Zhaoyun City will block their escape route. Then where can they escape? Are they all the prey of our army?"

After hearing this, Lu Ning thought that there were not many records in the history of the Three Kingdoms. He only knew that the Liaodong area has always been a border trouble for various dynasties in later generations. Tartars often dispatched iron cavalry to invade our Central Plains. If there would be no major war in the past few years, it would be a choice to deal with it first. "Then do what you said, but in the conquest, the Three Lights policy must be firmly implemented. If there are tribes who want to surrender voluntarily, they must be moved all their leaders and patriarchs to Bingzhou to live. The people of their tribe must be dispersed and resettled, otherwise they will not accept surrender."

After several days of research, Guo Jia issued an order: First, General Gao Shun was the main general and Han Meng was the deputy general, leading 10,000 flying bear army, and brought 10,000 chariots to Zhangliao City to clear the area within 2,000 kilometers around Zhangliao City, and completely resolve the addictions around Zhangliao City; Second, General Zhangliao led Hao Zhao to lead 20,000 troops to seize Guandu, and built Guandu into a urn, which was the main battlefield of Lu Ning's army in the future; Third, Ergou transferred to the north to lead 10,000 troops to guard to prevent the

The invasion of Ma Teng in Xiliang; at the same time, General Li You from Puban should pay close attention to the dynamics of Chang'an; General Zhang Yan from Shuofang should also pay close attention to Ma Teng's actions; 4. General Tuo Yi in Zhaoyun City cooperated with Tian Chou and his conquest in the northeast to block the retreat of the barbarians; 5. General Gao Lan transferred to Liaodong to participate in the war; 6. Sha Er returned to Jinyang to guard; 7. Lu Su went to Changdao to preside over the work of the Navy and Marine Corps. The specific conquest locations are three Han and Japanese islands. The time of the conquest is up to you to decide.

After the Chinese New Year, Lu Ning and Dian Wei brought 500 "Night Eyes" to the road. Along the way, Lu Ning saw many locusts jumping around, and he kept thinking in his heart that according to history, this year was a major disaster. There was a locust disaster in the north, and basically no harvest of particles, while there was a plague in the south. Large-scale locust disaster caused people to eat in most parts of the north. It was said that Cao Cao's army had no food to eat, and when there was no way, they cooked human flesh for soldiers to eat to satisfy their hunger. Lu Bu even slaughtered the maids and servants in his mansion to eat. The people even ate all the barks, and finally the phenomenon of people eating people.

It is conceivable how serious the disaster was at that time and what was the situation. The plagues in Xuzhou, Jingzhou and Jiangnan in the south were unscrupulous and spread everywhere. More than half of the deaths in some cities, and the plague spread most of the world. Due to the attacks of the two major disasters of locust plague and plague, the number of deaths among our Han people was estimated to reach tens of millions. In addition, the wars and chaos, the monarchs fought and the people were even more miserable. Since this year, the pattern of monarchs competing for power was officially opened. The prestige, appeal and control of the Han court was basically ignored.

Not long ago, Lu Ning and his party arrived in Yecheng and saw Ju Su. Lu Ning said to him: "Zhengping, your Jizhou has many difficulties this year. It seems that this year is a major disaster year. You must be mentally prepared to open warehouses and release grain and help the people. You have been plundered by Yuan Shao in recent years. The people have basically no food in their hands. Once the grain is not harvested, the people will suffer. You must be mentally prepared and transfer food from Bingzhou as soon as possible to prepare for the danger. You must also move the victims who fled from other counties and prefectures to Zhaoyunzhou. I have already resettled a large amount of food and grass."

Ju Su thought that all the grains in Jizhou were stolen by you when you attacked Jizhou last year. The people still have food. Although you also sent a lot of grain to the people after taking over, there is no food left in the government office. But can you say this? Fortunately, you also know that Jizhou is in trouble, otherwise you really don’t know what to do when there is a disaster. "Don’t worry, lord, we mobilize the people to resist the disaster together. Besides, with the support of your lord, there will be no difficulties that cannot be solved. No outside calls us to work harder."

Lu Ning thought for a while and said, "Zhengping, what do I mean? We should open warehouses and release grain to help the people, but it is best to let the people do some volunteer work, do some road construction, water conservancy engineering construction, and public welfare facilities construction. In this way, the people obtain money and grain through labor, maintain their lives, and at the same time change the production and living conditions of the people. Those who should build roads this year will vigorously build them, and those who should build water conservancy projects will do them. This will benefit the people in the future. It will also let the people know that only through their own hands can they get money and grain, and only hard work can they have a good life; it is best not to give them for free, as this will cultivate the people's idea of ​​being lazy and getting something for nothing. Of course, for the elderly and children who are not labor-free, there is no need to provide free relief."

Ju Su thought, your idea is not bad, it can help the people and carry out infrastructure construction, which is indeed a good way. "Don't worry, lord, this year, Yuan Tan gave Jizhou greater financial support and held some building materials factories nearby in Jizhou. This is helpful for the construction of infrastructure. Of course, we have made arrangements for the confidentiality of some factories, especially the confidentiality of cement plants is basically the most stringent. We plan to do a good job in the construction of highways and water conservancy facilities in Jizhou this spring, but this has not been done for decades. I hope that through several years of hard work, the infrastructure in Jizhou can be built better and resist various natural disasters."

Lu Ning said: "Zhengping, Jizhou was one of the richest states in the world in the past. The natural geographical conditions are very good. I believe that through your efforts for a few years, Jizhou will develop as wealthy as Bingzhou, the production and life of the people will be greatly improved, the economy will grow rapidly, and the environment will be better managed."

Ju Shu said: "Don't worry, lord, Bingzhou can develop so well under your governance. I think Jizhou has received your strong support now. I think the situation will change in a few years."

I don’t know what Shen Pei is doing now. “Zhengping, what is Shen Pei doing now?”

Ju Shu said: "Lord, Shen Pei's family is also a big family in Jizhou, but he still supports our policies. He now reads and teaches a few students every day, looks like he lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and does not care about the world, and is indifferent to the world. Guo Tu died of illness before the New Year. He has done too many bad things and has no popularity. His family is also slaves, so I have someone buried him."

After hearing this, Lu Ning sighed and said, "Shen Pei is still capable and not bad-minded, but too stupid and loyal. Although we have different political views, I still admire his character. With this person's talent, if he can come out to do something for the people, he will do a good job. He is also very good at managing the place. Guo Tu is not good, it's not that I won't let this person go, but Guo Tu is too bad-minded and narrow-minded, and always thinks that he is the best talent in the world and does not regard others.

In my eyes, I love to set traps on my colleagues. In order to achieve my goal, he dares to do anything that is harmful to the law. Leaving him will bring us future troubles. I don’t have the energy to monitor his every move. He and Feng Ji are the most despicable and shameless people under Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao’s failure has a close relationship with them. If he hadn’t instigated Yuan Shao to attack me, I wouldn’t have dealt with Yuan Shao. If these two were still alive, they would have to instigate Yuan Shao to make trouble again."

Ju Su said, "Lord, Yuan Shao lives in Bohai now. After his family's wealth was confiscated, all his servants were also exposed. He is also plagued by illness now. This is mainly a heart disease. I always think that he is the third prince of the fourth generation, how can he perish? Who else in the world is stronger than him? He did not look for the reasons from himself. He always felt that he was only allowed to attack others. Others could not attack him. He was still the leader of the alliance. He should do whatever he did, and others could not do it. Now I heard that his concubine Liu had a bad relationship with him. I hope Yuan Shao could divorce her so that she could remarry others again."
