Chapter 193 Rumors arise

Yicheng.

This is the only way to Xiangyang from Jiangling, and it is also the key to the throat between the two places. Therefore, Xiahou Dun stationed his army here, hunting down Liu Bei's army on the one hand, gathering the people on the other hand, and then sending the people back to Xinye.

at this time.

Baggage camp.

Su Chen is fighting against Xu Chu and Zhao Yang.

Since he designed to alienate Zhao Yun and Liu Bei a few days ago, he has been idle.

Fortunately, I made a deck of cards directly, and took Zhao Yang and Xu Chu to play with him for a few games to pass the time.

This is not.

In just half an hour, Zhao Yang and Xu Chu lost only their underwear. They were holding the cards in a bitter way, intending to win back all the losses.

Typical gambler psychology.

"I won again with four two-leaning two-leaning kings."

"You don't have to pay any debts for what you owe me. I've turned back to Xuchang and remember to send it to me."

Su Chen began to shuffle the cards and looked at the two of them, "Are you still playing?"

Xu Chu waved his hands repeatedly: "If you don't play anymore, don't play anymore. If you continue playing, I will lose all my money."

Zhao Yang also shook his head.

In just a moment, his half-month salary was gone.

I want to cry but no tears.

"Military advisor, why are you so happy?"

At this time, Cao Cao walked in from outside the account with a laugh and asked with a laugh.

"Master."

The three of them quickly got up and shouted.

Zhao Yang withdrew with tactfully.

"A gadget that passes the time, do you want to play with your lord?" Su Chen asked at Cao Cao.

Xu Chu, who was standing beside him, wanted to speak but stopped.

He was afraid of losing, and was worried that Cao Cao would also be told by Su Chen.

Of course, he was even more worried that Cao Cao would let him accompany him.

You know, he can't come out to play with anything now.

"I won't play anymore."

"I'm here to find a military advisor, there's something important to talk about."

Cao Cao waved his hand and sat down, feeling quite energetic.

Su Chen smiled and did not ask. He was waiting for Cao Cao to speak.

"Military advisor, since you followed your plan a few days ago, you have recovered more than 110,000 people in total. I have asked someone to recast the roster, but it is difficult to resettle these more than 100,000 people."

"Shino has become a deserted city, so it's so difficult to rebuild it."

Cao Cao was in pain and happiness.

More than one hundred million people are not a small amount.

The people can not only provide taxes, food and grass, but also provide logistics support, but also recruit soldiers and strengthen their own strength.

He was so happy to more than 100,000 people.

But the problem is that relocating so many people is not an easy task.

The daily amount of food, clothing and consumption is a considerable number.

He had asked Chen Qun in advance.

Chen Qun's methods are the same, distributing land and reducing taxes cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

That's why he thought about it and simply came to ask Su Chen.

After all, Su Chen finally gave him a surprise.

"Lord, it's not difficult to resettle more than 100,000 people. The difficult thing is how to make these people live steadily."

"I have some ways here, and my lord can take it to take a look."

Su Chen stood up and took out the method he had already written.

Handed it to Cao Cao.

In fact, when he planned to recover the people, he had already written the method of resettlement, but he was not in a hurry to hand it over to Cao Cao.

"I'll take a look first."

Cao Cao quickly checked.

“Work-for-relief?”

Seeing these four new words, he felt a little new.

So I continued to read.

"Build water conservancy and transform agricultural tools."

"There is only half a tax on reclaiming wasteland."

The more you look at it, the more shocked Cao Cao becomes.

If this method is followed, not only can the construction of Xinye City be quickly built, but also save a lot of financial resources.

The best of both worlds.

As long as the city and the houses are built.

When the people have a place to live, these more than 100,000 people can stabilize in an instant.

After all, the fertile fields near Xinye have not been affected much, and people can start farming at any time, as long as they can survive this year.

After reading it, Cao Cao took a deep breath, closed the book, and then looked at Su Chen with a smile on his face: "The military advisor has really helped me solve a big problem."

"I finally believe that the military advisor practiced agriculture under Mr. Shuijing's name, otherwise how could he know so much about farming?"

"However, what makes me curious is that the military advisor is studying agronomy, but he is so good at all aspects. Even the Wolong Zhuge Liang is not the opponent of the military advisor."

Su Chen also smiled: "Prime Minister, but what good news has he received?"

"The military advisor guessed correctly. Liu Bei did order Guan Yu to cooperate with Liu Qi to take Jiang Xia. Fortunately, the military advisor made an advance arrangement, so Jiang Xia did not fall into Liu Bei's hands, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."

Cao Cao said with a smile.

With Liu Bei's reputation and the food and grass stored in Jiangxia, coupled with Zhuge Liang's wisdom, he could train 100,000 elite soldiers in less than a year.

At that time, it will be even more difficult to solve Liu Bei.

Seeing Cao Cao so excited, Su Chen shook his head and poured a basin of cold water on it.

"Prime Minister, don't be too happy too early. Liu Bei, who has been defeated repeatedly and lost a Jiangxia, is just to temporarily restrain his edge. Once he finds an opportunity, he will immediately rise up and bite the Prime Minister hard."

"What's more, now that Liu Bei and Liu Qi have joined forces with Jiangling, there are 50,000 or 60,000 troops. It's not that easy for the Prime Minister to take down Jiangling."

"And don't forget the Prime Minister. Jiangdong has not responded yet. Isn't the Prime Minister afraid of the alliance between Sun and Liu?"

Um?

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao was shocked.

Liu Bei made him feel a headache. If it were Sun and Liu, it would be a bit tricky.

Cao Cao frowned and thought for a moment, but in a short period of time, there was no good idea.

Then he raised his head and looked at Su Chen.

"Can the military advisor have a way to stop the Sun-Liu alliance?"

Su Chen shook his head.

"With cooperation, both benefits, and I can't stop it."

The Sun-Liu alliance is inevitable, and it is difficult to stop it.

After all, it is related to life and death. Sun Quan and Liu Bei faced Cao Cao at the same time. Only by joining forces can they be the most beneficial to them.

Neither Sun Quan nor Liu Bei were fools, so he could see the situation clearly.

“This is troublesome.”

"There are 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers in Jiangling, including Liu Qi's 30,000 Jingzhou Navy, and the Jiangdong Navy is the best in the world, with at least 100,000 people, and there are at least 150,000 Navy."

"In addition, Liu Bei, as the emperor's uncle of the Han emperor, has a very high reputation. When the time comes, there will definitely be many people in the world who will respond."
