Cao Ang learned the news about the refugees from Runan entering Chen State immediately.

After all, Ruyang is on the edge of Chen State, only a hundred miles away from Chen County, the seat of Chen State.

Even the farthest village under Ruyang County is only fifty miles away from the border of Chen County.

"Huh, first in the name of raising taxes, they sent some troops to rob the people of Runan of their money and food, and then drove these people of Runan to become refugees and go to Chen State.

Finally, he disguised himself and led the rest of the soldiers to sneak into the refugees.

This method of coercing refugees into an army is really the specialty of the Yellow Turban bandits.

Although Zhang Kai is a heinous fellow, he is somewhat clever.……"

Cao Ang sneered and was very disdainful of what Yuan Shu and Zhang Kai did.

It was even unbelievable that Yuan Shu could allow Zhang Kai to behave like this under his rule.

In order to get money and food from the Chen State, he would not hesitate to set up a trap to force his own people away. This kind of fishing was something that no normal person could do except for Yuan Shu, a weirdo with an abnormal brain circuit.

No wonder Yuan Shu is called the withered bones in the tomb by the world!

Although Cao Ang is in Ruyang, he has control over everything within a radius of two hundred miles.

Including what Zhang Kai did in Runan, as well as Zhang Kai leading more than a thousand soldiers to mix among the refugees and enter the Chen Kingdom.

In fact, many of Zhang Kai's direct subordinates were former Yellow Turban bandits, so Zhang Kai ordered him to start his own business and brought many of his soldiers' family members to join the refugees. It is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

If Cao Ang hadn't been on guard for a long time and made people watch what happened under Yuan Shu's rule, it would have been difficult for Cao Ang to take precautions without knowing it.

Cao Ang finally understood why in history Chen Wang Liu Chong was considered brave and Chen Prime Minister Luo Jun was considered wise, but Yuan Shu sent Zhang Kai to assassinate them.

When the enemy drags their families and mingles with the refugees, they are simply real refugees. In this case, how to prevent it?

As for refusing refugees to vote?

In this troubled world where everyone is competing for population and land, this move is tantamount to self-destruction.

You can refuse refugees to seek refuge, and then these refugees will seek refuge with others and become a source of taxes and troops for others.

Under the circumstances of this ebb and flow, sooner or later you will be destroyed by others.

Therefore, Cao Ang was sure that not to mention the Chen Wang Liu Chong who was so happy with his achievements, even the rigorous Chen Prime Minister Luo Jun could not resist the temptation of refugees...

Thinking of this, Cao Ang smiled slightly:"General Dian Wei, General Cao Hong.

Click. Raise your troops and horses and follow me to Chen Guo to ask for the ten thousand stones of food and grass!"

He said he was raising his troops and horses. In fact, Cao Ang had already prepared. He brought a thousand elite soldiers and a thousand defenders from Ruyang and set off immediately..

The thousand elite soldiers sent by Cao Cao to Cao Ang were already the elite of Cao's army. Many of them were warriors selected by Cao Cao from the 300,000 Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.

In addition, since Cao Ang obtained Han Xin's art of war, he also used the time when he was stationed in the field to subtly mobilize and practice the two thousand soldiers, and now he is able to implement orders and prohibitions as if they were in command.

These two thousand soldiers are Cao Ang's plan to intercept Hu, Yuan Shu, and Zhang Kai, and gain leverage from Chen!

……

In Chen County, Luo Jun had just finished processing a batch of official documents when he received a new official document from his subordinates. It was the statistics of refugees outside the city.

"Prime Minister, according to preliminary statistics, there are currently about 6,000 refugees outside the city, most of whom are old and weak, women and children, and the number of adults is about 2,000.

Moreover, new refugees are arriving sporadically, so this number is only temporary for now."

The official in charge of statistics reported to Luo Jun

"Understood, these refugees must be resettled and set an example for the people of the world, letting them know that only I, the State of Chen, can treat the people well.

This is an opportunity for Chen Guo to grow stronger!"

Luo Jun's eyes were bright and full of fighting spirit.

Six thousand refugees, including two thousand strong men, are a valuable asset for a force.

Even a small county may only have such a population.

In one day, , the population of one county was increased, and the labor force was increased by two thousand people. Luo Jun was very happy.

"By the way, the Prime Minister, among the refugees, there were several village elders who wanted to express their gratitude to the King and the Prime Minister for their kindness in taking them in.

I wonder if you want to see the King and the Prime Minister?"

The official spoke again and conveyed the refugees' request.

Luo Jun subconsciously wanted to refuse, thinking that these refugees had just arrived and it would be inappropriate if there were Yuan Shu's spies among them.

At this time, he learned about the refugees King Chen Liu Chong, who came to deliver the news, strode into the official office:"Haha, the refugees want to express their gratitude, so naturally I want to meet with the Prime Minister!

In this way, these refugees can also know whose grace they have received, and who gave them a way to survive in this troubled world!

When I need their help in the future, they will be able to serve me well!"

Seeing King Chen speak, Luo Jun subconsciously blocked his mouth with words of rejection.

Thinking about it carefully, Luo Jun also felt that with Yuan Shu's behavior of burying dead bones in the grave and exploiting the people, these refugees should not be fake, so he also ordered He nodded:"Then I will go with the king to meet the refugees.

It can also attract people's hearts and demonstrate the king's virtues of accepting refugees and loving the people, so that he can attract more people's hearts in the future and strengthen our country, Chen."

So, Luo Jun put away his official documents, and together with Chen Wang Liu Chong, prepared to go to the south of the city to appease the refugees.

For safety reasons, Luo Jun also specially dispatched 500 soldiers to accompany him.

You know, on weekdays, Chen Wang Liu Chong only travels at most. He would only bring hundreds of soldiers to protect him.

Luo Jun's move was already considered cautious.

Just when Luo Jun and Chen Wang Liu Chong were about to leave the city from the south gate to meet the refugees in the south of the city, they suddenly received a report from Ximen's soldiers:"Report to King Qi, Prime Minister, we have received news from Ruyang. Young Master Cao Ang has repaired the warehouse in Ruyang and is here to collect the ten thousand stones of grain and grass.

The team collecting grain has now arrived thirty miles west of the city, so he sent someone to report the news first, and asked the Prime Minister to prepare grain and grass and hand it over five miles outside the city."

When Liu Chong and Luo Jun heard that Cao Ang was coming to get food and grass at this time, their expressions changed invariably.

When they heard that Cao Ang had agreed to hand over the goods five miles outside the city and would not enter the city, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Luo Jun also He praised Cao Ang:"The melon field does not accept the shoes, and the Li Xia does not have the right crown.

Young Master Cao Ang brought people to get food, but he made a five-mile agreement first to avoid suspicion.

What a gentleman!"

"Prime Minister, the distance of five miles is not that far. People with good eyesight can see five miles away.

If Cao Ang saw the refugees coming to take refuge, wouldn't it mean that Cao Sikong would be afraid of him?

This must not be seen!

If Cao Ang wants to recruit these refugees on the grounds of benevolence and righteousness, we can't stop him.

At least we have to wait until these refugees are accepted and digested first, so we don't have to worry about Cao Cao knowing about it."

Liu Chong had a look of worry on his face, like a dog guarding his food. He was worried that Cao Ang would compete with him to recruit refugees.

Luo Jun could only nod his head after hearing what Liu Chong said:"In that case, let the soldiers protect him. The king went to the south of the city to appease the refugees, and I immediately rushed to the fifteen miles west of the city to meet him, and blocked Cao Ang fifteen miles away for the king.

Another person was asked to quickly order 10,000 stones of food and grass and send them to the west of the city fifteen miles away for handover, so that the king could slowly recruit and resettle the refugees. Liu

Chong listened to Luo Jun's arrangement and said with a satisfied smile:"The Prime Minister considers it safe, so we will do it this way.""

So Liu Chong and Luo Jun immediately divided their troops into two groups.

Liu ChongHe went to the south of the city to appease the refugees and waited to receive their gratitude.

Luo Jun took only a few followers and rushed to the west of the city to meet Cao Ang who came to get food.
