Chapter 2, 2, 3, I will also treat the emperor in the future (two in one)
"Zilong, continue talking."
After Liu Cheng heard what Zhao Yun said, he spoke to Zhao Yun with a smile on his face and motioned for Zhao Yun to continue.
Seeing this, Zhao Yun spoke again: "...I think it is a pity that so many soldiers and horses are idle here now. There are so many unowned wastelands around. It is better to mobilize these soldiers and horses and let them be here.
Open up wasteland, cultivate land, and sow food. After a while, you can get a lot of military rations..."
"But if this is really the case and all the troops are allowed to farm, then when there is a war in the future, who will fight?
Wouldn’t it greatly weaken the army’s combat effectiveness?”
After Zhao Yun said something, Li Su, who had returned with Liu Cheng, couldn't help but ask.
His worries are not unreasonable. After all, he is a soldier, and what he relies on most is his soldiers and horses.
And what happened during these days clearly sent a message to everyone.
The news is that those with strong soldiers and horses are respected. Strong soldiers and horses are the foundation of everything!
Without power in his hands, even the emperor will be useless!
At this time, when he heard that Zhao Yun actually said that he wanted the army to imitate the common people to farm fields, his first feeling was that this was nonsense!
The army has gone to fight, so who will fight in the future?
This is simply sacrificing the basics for the sake of the last!
After Li Su spoke, the rest of the people also turned their attention to Zhao Yun, waiting for Zhao Yun to explain.
There is no doubt that what Li Su just said is something they both worry about and puzzle over.
Seeing this, Zhao Yun spoke again: "There is no need to worry about the army's combat strength.
After so many battles, the emperor's uncle and the captains captured and absorbed a large number of prisoners of war.
This greatly increased the number of soldiers and horses available to the emperor's uncle. This was a good thing, but it also resulted in uneven distribution of soldiers and horses in the emperor's hands.
At this time, you can just make a selection.
The old and weak among the generals were selected.
During the busy farming season and when there is no war, strong troops can be used to reclaim the land and help with sowing and harvesting.
During the off-farm time, watering and weeding can be left to these old and weak people to take care of.
A strong army can fight or conduct drills during the leisure time...
Moreover, this has another advantage, that is, when the time comes for soldiers to withdraw from the army due to age or injury, there will be a place to resettle them.
We will not leave them helpless and lonely..."
Following Zhao Yun's explanation, everyone present was silent. They were all thinking about Zhao Yun's words to see if what Zhao Yun said could be accomplished.
After some thinking, Xu Huang, Hua Xiong and others discovered that what Zhao Yun said can really be implemented!
After this is really promoted, the combat effectiveness of the army will not be affected, but will decline.
You can also get a lot of food!
More importantly, through such things, we can also solve the problem of placement of disabled, old and weak soldiers that is a headache for many people, and can provide a good future for the soldiers.
He won't let his soldiers bleed and then shed tears.
Juntun can be said to be one of the best in one fell swoop!
Faced with such a good solution, even Li Su, a picky person who values the military very seriously, had to admit that this was indeed a very good solution.
Seeing that none of his important generals had any objections to this matter, Liu Cheng couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that everyone agrees with Zilong's proposal. This method is indeed good. Once implemented, it will have many benefits.
At this time, don’t be dissatisfied with having too much food. The more food you have in your hand, the better. You will be tough in everything you do!
Zilong, you made a good suggestion this time!"
Liu Cheng turned to Zhao Yun and said with a smile.
Zhao Yun raised his hands to Liu Cheng and said: "I also saw the method of civilian settlement promoted by your uncle, and was inspired by it, so I remembered these things.
With the law of Mintun promoted by Uncle Huang in front, even if Zhao Yun did not say anything, Uncle Huang and several captains would still link the army with the method of Mintun.
It's a matter of time.
It's just a fluke that Zhao Yun thought of it first."
Zhao Yun's words and the attitude he showed made Liu Cheng, Xu Huang, Li Su and others present feel very comfortable.
Xu Huang, Li Su, Hua Xiong and others will not have any opinions or be dissatisfied with Zhao Yun because Zhao Yun just made a suggestion that Liu Huangshu greatly appreciated.
This is human character and wisdom in dealing with the world.
If this feeling were placed on Xu You, Hua Xiong, Li Su and others, they would never be so calm. I am afraid that the most important thing in their minds is to chop this guy to death with a knife!
A smile appeared on Liu Cheng's face, and the more he looked at Zhao Yun, the more satisfied he became...
Everyone came to Liu Cheng's camp, and then discussed the specific implementation method of this matter, striving to perfect it.
After some discussion, all the details were finalized.
At this point in the meeting, it could have ended, but these guys stayed here and refused to leave.
"Uncle Emperor, I haven't tasted your craftsmanship for how many days. It tastes so bland in my mouth. Uncle Emperor...hehehehe..."
Hua Xiong had a shy face full of beards. He stopped talking midway through his words and just looked at Liu Cheng who couldn't help but smile.
On the side, they were either pretending to look at a map, or staring at the corner of the table, meditating without saying a word, or looking up at the sky, as if they were recalling the insights of the emperor's uncle, Li Jin, Li Su, and Xu Huang.
Liao Hua and others, when Hua Xiong said this and laughed at Liu Cheng, they also walked out of the seal state they had created for themselves, accompanied Hua Xiong, and looked at Liu Cheng
Into a hehehe smile.
Such a scene immediately stunned Zhao Yun, who had only been following Liu Cheng for a short time.
However, when he ate the noodles personally ordered by the uncle who was laughing and scolding him, all the doubts and confusions in his heart disappeared in an instant!
tasty!
Supremely delicious!
I really didn't expect that the emperor's uncle, who had amazing martial arts skills and was very good at leading troops in battle, could actually have such a skill!
No wonder Hua Xiong and the others didn't leave. They all looked at the emperor's uncle with shy faces and kept saying hey hey hey!
Zhao Yun, who was holding a bowl the size of a human head and kept scooping ramen into his mouth, felt that after tasting the emperor's uncle's craftsmanship, he might join the ranks of having fun with the emperor in the future...
…
At this time, Dong Zhuo, who was leading the people in Chang'an, was not in such a happy mood.
Originally he was in a very good mood.
The matter of moving the capital was successfully completed according to his wishes without any problems.
Although Yuan Shao and those guys also wanted to take advantage of his retreat to take a bite of his flesh, but with his good grandson-in-law Ked around, these people's treacherous plot failed.
Not only did they not bite off the meat from their bodies, but those guys who tried to take the opportunity to bite off some meat from their bodies were caught and beaten hard by their good grandson-in-law, until the shit came out!
As long as he thinks about this matter in his heart, Dong Zhuo will feel comfortable in his heart!
During this trip to move the capital, he took the opportunity to excavate Liu's mausoleum and slaughter many fat pigs in Luoyang and around Luoyang. Along the way, the money and food in his hands not only did not decrease, but also increased.
A big increase.
And Han Sui, Ma Teng and others who wanted to seize the opportunity to capture Chang'an and cause trouble behind their backs, after being blocked by the stupid cow for a while, learned that they had led a large number of troops and moved the capital, and they also acted like themselves.
As expected before, they curled up their minions and retreated to Xiliang...
These things were all carried out according to his original expectations. Dong Zhuo could say that his wishes came true.
But Dong Zhuo is not very happy now.
Because, after recovering from the excitement of the first few days, he discovered that some things did not go according to his original expectations.
This matter is the resettlement of these people, as well as the construction of things like the palace and his own residence, which is far more troublesome than he thought before!
Dong Zhuo was a man who led troops all year round. What he was best at was fighting, destroying, not constructing.
He is very skilled in destroying systems and many things, but when it comes to construction, this involves his shortcomings.
In fact, it is not just him, but also the shortcomings of his talents.
After all, he relied on the army to get his start, and to this day, he still relies on the army to maintain his rule.
The people under him are basically inclined to fight.
It is also because of this that Dong Zhuo encountered difficulties when faced with the construction of Chang'an and the migration of so many people.
At the beginning, Dong Zhuo thought very simply. He thought that at the foot of the southern mountain of Duling, there were thousands of brick and tile kilns left by Emperor Wu of the previous dynasty, which could be used to bake the bricks and tiles needed to build palaces and houses. It was not difficult.
After arriving here, he realized that most of the brick kilns left by Emperor Wu had collapsed.
Even those that have not collapsed cannot be used directly and need to be repaired...
This is not what troubles Dong Zhuo the most.
What troubled him the most was the many people he had moved here.
At the beginning, he thought very simply, that is, these people all have hands and feet, and they can always settle down after migrating here.
Therefore, everyone was driven over by the army.
After coming here, Dong Zhuo discovered that the things he was least concerned about before were the most difficult things to do.
The resettlement of these people is not easy at all!
It’s much harder than marching to fight!
It would be easier if the number of people was smaller.
The key is that there are too many people!
Luoyang and the surrounding areas of Luoyang have a population of more than one million!
Everyone was brought over by him.
In addition to those who died on the road and the attrition in various circumstances, there are still one million people now!
Such a huge crowd is in urgent need of resettlement.
This is really difficult for Dong Zhuo and his people!
It makes them feel like a tiger eating a hedgehog and unable to eat it.
After being puzzled and using some methods, but with little effect, Dong Zhuo gradually became irritable.
"Wenyou, what do you think we should do about this matter?"
Dong Zhuo turned his head and looked at Li Ru next to him.
In fact, Dong Zhuo had already asked Li Ru this question a few days ago.
After Li Ru thought hard, he also came up with some solutions.
However, there are some things that are as separate as mountains. The method given by Li Ru, who is not good at this aspect, does not have any significant effect, and it even feels like the more he tries, the more chaotic he becomes.
At this time, Li Ru once again heard this fatal question from his father-in-law. For a moment, Li Ru felt that he had only one head and two heads...
When Dong Zhuo saw his son-in-law like this, he already knew that his question was in vain.
In other places, my son-in-law is very clever, but there is really not much he can do about this.
"That's it! Love to death, love to live, these people are hard-pressed!
Even if we don't care, they will never die!
Because of these bastards, I have been thinking about so many things these days! I don’t feel good sleeping, eating food doesn’t feel good, and I’ve all lost weight!”
After doing this for a while, Dong Zhuo vigorously shook his sleeves, touched his big belly, and said this aloud, looking particularly irritable.
He had completely lost his patience on this matter.
After making this decision in his heart and saying these words to Li Ru, Dong Zhuodun felt that his thoughts were clear and his whole mood improved a lot.
Sure enough, nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up...
Li Ru had no doubts about this. He himself was not a kind person, and if he really started to attack, his hands would be very dark.
Moreover, recently, in order to think about how to solve the problems of these idiots, he has not read much for several days in a row.
This made Li Ru feel a little irritated.
He felt that he had tried his best for these bastards.
I don't feel any guilt in my heart.
Therefore, the two people decided to let these migrating people fend for themselves. This style was really in favor of Dong Zhuo. It was typical of killing and burying people.
Of course, if we don't pay too much attention to these people's survival issues, we still have to use corvees that should be used...
Under the operation of Dong Zhuo and Li Ru, you can imagine how miserable and difficult the lives of these people who were forcibly moved from Luoyang were!
It was under such circumstances that he led the army to camp in Mianchi and quickly arranged many things. Now, Liu Cheng, who had gathered the rescued people to settle down, also took Zhao Yun and hundreds of cavalry from Mianchi. We set off from here and galloped all the way towards Chang'an in the west.
He has received the news from Liu Shui and Lu Yang. Chang'an is indeed a mess!
He needs to get there as quickly as possible!
With one man and two horses galloping, Liu Cheng and his party arrived at Huayin.
There are soldiers and horses stationed here, which is the second line of defense deployed by Dong Zhuo.
The person leading the troops to garrison here is Lu Bu!
