Beast King Three Kingdoms

Chapter 041 Cao Cao rises, Yuan Shu also gains

() The battle of Qingzhou can be said to be the battle of Cao Cao's rise.

In this battle, Cao Cao defeated a million Yellow Turbans, almost all of them surrendered, and selected their elites to form an army called the Qingzhou Army.

Afterwards, Cao Cao successively wiped out bandits from all walks of life, his strength greatly increased, and his power shocked the land of Shandong.

Li Jue and Guo Si from Chang'an finally realized what Jia Xu said about "commanding the princes of the world", and they were very happy. They were excited and appointed Cao Cao as the general of Zhendong.

Since then, Cao Cao has risen completely and is out of control.

In Yanzhou, Cao Cao's strength is getting stronger and stronger, but at this time he also encountered the problem that Yuan Shu encountered before, that is, there are few talents under his command.

Just when Cao Cao was in trouble, a Wang Zuozhi came to serve him. This person was Xun Yu, whom Yuan Shu had dreamed of.

It turned out that Xun Yu voted for Yuan Shao before Jizhou, but it was a pity that Yuan Shao couldn't help him, which made Xun Yu very disappointed.

It wasn't until this time that Xun Yu felt regretful. If he had known this, he might as well have chosen Yuan Shu, especially when he saw Xun You's prosperity under Yuan Shu's command.

However, Xun Yu also had arrogance, so it was impossible for him to turn around and vote for Yuan Shu.

After picking and choosing, Xun Yu finally decided to join Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was the initiator of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, and he was also the only one who went to pursue Dong Zhuo with Yuan Shu when the princes stagnated in Luoyang.

Of course, this is the opinion of the world, the real situation is that Yuan Shu followed Cao Cao to pursue Dong Zhuo.

Xun Yu is worthy of being a top-notch sage who combines strategy and political talents. Seeing Cao Cao defeating Qingzhou, he immediately realized that Cao Cao would rise, so Xingye came to join him.

After Cao Cao and Xun Yu had a deep talk, they were overjoyed and said, "This is my son's house!"

With the addition of Xun Yu, Cao Cao's rule gradually stabilized, there was no shortage of food, grass, and weapons, and people's livelihood was restored.

Since Xun Yu voted for Cao Cao, he naturally wanted to think about him.

Xun Yu was very satisfied with Cao Cao's army, but he was a little dissatisfied with Cao Cao's counselors, and only Xi Zhong and Xi Zhi were worthy of use.

Yes, it is Xi Zhong.

After discussing with Xun You and Guo Jia in the previous round, Xun You voted for Yuan Shu soon after, while Guo Jia traveled northward.

Xi Zhong was so tickled by the two of them that he looked around the princes and finally chose Cao Cao. In his words, after a poor peasant and an eunuch, they were a perfect match.

In the battle of Qingzhou, it was precisely because of Xizhong's conspiracy that Cao Cao was able to break through a million yellow scarves so easily, and his strength increased greatly.

Although there is loyalty in the play, Xun Yu is still a little dissatisfied. No matter how strong one person is, it will be limited after all. Only by working together can we last long.

Therefore, Xun Yu recommended to Cao Cao: "My lord! There are many talents in Yanzhou, why don't you take them, my lord?"

"Oh? But I don't know who this person is?" Cao Cao asked.

Xun Yu replied, "He is from Dong'a, Dongjun. His surname is Cheng, his first name is Yu, and his style name is Zhongde."

Cao Cao said happily: "I have also been famous for a long time."

Order people to search in the village, and finally meet each other.

Cheng Yu was satisfied with Cao Cao, and more importantly, Xun Yu was optimistic about Cao Cao's appointment.

Guo Jia was also a little curious about Cao Cao, so he came here happily.

After chatting with Cao Cao, Guo Jia was deeply attracted by Cao Cao's demeanor. At the same time, the two had similar personalities, both a bit bohemian, and they had a great intention of hating each other until later.

In this way, Guo Jia also voted for Cao Cao.

Guo Jia originally wanted to recommend Liu Ye, a descendant of Guangwu's direct lineage, from Huainan Chengde, to Cao Cao.

It's a pity that Liu Ye didn't want to serve Cao, but planned to serve Yuan Shu.

Man Chong and Lu Qian had no objection to this, and they invited another person, Mao Jie from Pingqiu, Chenliu, named Xiaoxian.

Although he lost several talents, Cao Cao's rising trend has not changed.

Not long after, another general led hundreds of people to vote for Cao Cao, who was exactly the general Jin Yuan Shu wanted to get in the past.

Yu Jin may not be the strongest in martial arts, but he is definitely a good fighter in training.

With many civil servants and generals, Cao Cao's power continued to grow, and no one in Yanzhou could surpass him. <Cheng, Yuan Shu followed Liu Ye, Man Chong, Lu Qian, and Mao Jie, and couldn't hide the joy on his face.

Among the four, Lu Qian and Mao Jie are the most mediocre. They are not very strong in martial arts and military training, but they are better than average. They can lead troops in battle and guard one side.

Liu Ye's proficiency in tricks counts. In history, he created the catapult, a powerful siege weapon. At the same time, Liu Ye has a strong strategy and can be called an all-rounder.

Man Chong has deep research on criminal law, and he is upright and upright. Yuan Shu wanted him to specialize in criminal law matters.

Not only that, there is also good news from Jiangdong, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, Dong Xi, and He Qi will vote.

Now Yuan Shu's subordinates have completely overcome the plight of scarcity of talents.

Although all of them were rare talents, Yuan Shu did not immediately arrange for them to do things.

After being named General Pingnan, Yuan Shu already had the right to open the government, so he planned to reform the official system, re-divide power, refine official responsibilities, and eliminate those useless official positions.

In fact, this is not a big deal. During the Three Kingdoms period in history, countless official positions were added, such as joining the army, General Si Jin Zhonglang, Dongxi Cao's subordinates, etc., countless.

During this period, reform did not mean rebellion, so Yuan Shu was not worried.

Reforming the official system is not a trivial matter, and it is now the end of the year, so Yuan Shu plans to implement it at the beginning of next year.

Seeing that the third year of Chuping was about to end, Feng Ji, who was in Jiangdong, suddenly sent a letter to Yuan Shu, saying that more than 20 mountains had come out of the mountains, please ask for the arrangement as mentioned before?

Apparently, Yuan Shu's method has worked. Turning the fields inside, fortifying the walls and clearing the fields, at the same time sending the army into the mountains.

In this way, Shanyue's food source will be completely cut off. Without food, Shanyue can't survive, so he can only go out of the mountain and surrender.

Yuan Shu immediately sent an order to Fengji, according to the previous agreement, demoted Shanyue to slaves, and every hundred people were divided into one village, and they were placed in various parts of Jiangdong to reclaim wasteland. It was stipulated that as long as five years (full) of reclamation, they could be converted into Han people and no longer be slaves. .

At the same time, Yuan Shu adopted a high-pressure policy. As long as one person rebelled, the remaining [-] people in the village where he lived would all sit together.

Such a policy cannot be regarded as harsh. Like the alien races in the north, it is difficult for slaves to turn over for a lifetime.

"I'm still very kind!" In fact, Yuan Shu's kindness also varies from person to person.

Since ancient times, the harm of alien races in the south has been very small, while the danger in the north has been a serious problem. If Yuan Shu was facing Xianbei, Xiongnu and other northern alien races at this time, I am afraid that his methods would never be so gentle.

"According to this progress, within two years, Shanyue should be able to calm down. At that time, it is time to attack Jingzhou, completely occupy the south of the Yangtze River, and then go north to fight for the hegemony of the Central Plains!" Thinking of his pride, Yuan Shu couldn't help but salivate. If no one sees it, otherwise his "famous name" will definitely be ruined like this.

The 'extreme plan' against Yamakoshi has already worked, as long as you persist. <.

Chuping three years finally passed. <, and then discussed with Gu Yong, Xun You, Zhang Hong, Liu Ye, Man Chong and others.

After more than a month, everything was finally settled.
