Chapter 199. The boss is not easy to be!
Jia Xu was not allowed to be heartbroken. In his opinion, Wang Hou was a waste of time. Why did Cao Cao launch an attack on the four prefectures of Hebei so enthusiastically? On the one hand, Yuan Shao was indeed his biggest enemy. On the other hand, the Central Plains experienced a huge catastrophe of the Yellow Turban Army, and Yanzhou and Yuzhou were also under large-scale destruction in the melee of Cao Cao and other warlords. Wang Hou of each prefecture passed by, and his Dongjun even fought no one, which shows that it was obvious.
But in Jizhou, the former Jizhou governor Han Fu, was a disciple of the Yuan family. Yuan Shao took Jizhou with almost no bloodshed. He had no war here, a population of millions, a fertile land and a developed economy. Although Youzhou in Bingzhou is a frontier, it is still peaceful, and it is a place of elite soldiers and horses. If you want to compete for the world, Cao Cao is bound to win the population and wealth here!
There is also Qingzhou, although it has experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it has the fertile and vast northern Shandong Plain and western Shandong Plain. Under the rule of peace in the hands of the Yuan family, it has also recovered.
If you want to gain a foothold in Qingzhou and do something, according to Jia Xu's strategy, the most important thing you should do is to take advantage of the empty opportunity of President Cao's fight with Yuan Shao's group in Cangting. Qingzhou went north to go out of Taishan County, seize Jinan, Jiyin and other places near the Yellow River, absorb the rich population resources of the Yellow River Plain in this area, and then rely on Ji in the north and face the Yellow River to confront Yuan Tan who returned from Jizhou.
This hand restrained the power of Qingzhou, and Cao Cao could not be satisfied with just one Cangting. After Cangting defeated Yuan’s army, he would continue to go north and then he would have to restrain some of Yuan Tan’s troops. At that time, it would be the opportunity for Wang Hou to continue to make progress. For Yuan, such a vicious cycle of tug-of-war, Yuan Tan would sooner or later be beaten out of Qingzhou within a few years.
Now time is equal to golden gold! Wang Hou actually wasted it in Taishan County, a place where the population is withered and birds do not poop or lay eggs, is simply a crime!
"Dongweng! Longmazhai iron ore, five thousand men and women are already making mistakes! No matter how many, it is a waste of manpower! Dongweng is good at smelting iron, and a winter opportunity is enough to build armies for tens of thousands of troops. Mount Tai is useless, so don't involve Dongwen's energy anymore!"
Besides, the house he built is so ugly! Seeing more than a dozen workers happily collaborating on the cement trough, Jia Xu felt that his aesthetic view was challenged.
However, after he said this, Wang Hou didn't listen to a word. He stood on the hillside and was still yelling and commanding. Seeing his soldiers rudely driving all the bandits who had just caught into the mine, Wang Hou turned around and hugged his arms.
"Mr. Wenhe, you are so anxious to move north because Jinan County is flat and has many fertile fields! Yes! Compared with Jinan County, not to mention Taishan County, the Donghai County, Ju County, which Zang Ba occupied by the People's Republic of China, was a desolate place by the sea. Not only me, he wanted to fight Jinan County!"
"Zang Ba was born into a bandit in Tai, without name and hopelessness, without virtue and righteousness. How can a noble family support him? He can only do things like robbers and dogs. Dongweng was born into the Wang family of Jinyang, and after Wang Jian, the same clan of Situ Wang Yun was highly respected! Compared with the Yuan family's rebellious actions, they will of course submit to Dongweng!"
"So, is the Jinan County that was captured by my Jinan Army, the Jinan County of the Prime Minister, or the Jinan County of the gentry?"
At first, Jia Xu was still angry, but after hearing this, he suddenly couldn't help but feel excited. However, before he lowered his head and thought about it, Wang Hou drew a big cake for him.
"If we could build some places like Taishan County and Ju County, which are more prosperous than Jinan County, Jibei County, Beihai Country, I would have to fight against Yuan Tan's superior troops in Ji's level to fight to the death? To be honest, I feel that I am not as good as Han Xin!"
After saying that, he laughed loudly, Wang Hou walked towards the mine with his hands behind his back and as if the big goose was on his back, leaving only Jia Xu with a heavy head and constantly lowering his head and thinking deeply.
…………
I have long seen that this old guy is not satisfied! However, one advantage of literati is also a disadvantage, that is, he is too sensible. The smarter the person, the more he thinks about things. To put it nicely, he is meticulous, but to put it nicely, he is called mother-in-law and mother. He is looking forward to it. If he wants to do something in Qingzhou, it is impossible without Jia Xu's help. And even though he is so hot about Dongweng, the old guy has also changed five bosses one after another. At first, Dong Zhuo, Guo Si, Yang Ji, and Zhang Xiu. Now he is serious and should be the minister of Boss Cao. If he doesn't let him go, the old guy will really be a slander for him.
Moreover, the boss is not that easy to be a boss. As soon as the team is big, there are too many things. Now Wang Hou knows how exhausted Zhuge Liang is! Senior executives of a company like Jia Xu have to take care of, and ordinary employees under him have to take care of it. This is just a army of 10,000 people, so there are so many troubles.
It was okay these days of war, but military discipline was stolen, but the nearby villages were all destroyed by coal fires, and conflicts within the army began to emerge one by one. First of all, what Wang Hou could not imagine was that the matter was actually on cement.
There were only a few stone mills in Longma Village. They brought back the stone mills from four or five other copycats, but there were only twenty pairs. They were all asked Wang Hou to grind the slag to make cement. The military rations brought out this time were mostly wheat. Without the stone mill, the soldiers would not eat flour and could only eat wheat rice. But that thing was not good to taste and was difficult to digest. Not to mention the new army, the nine hundred old subordinates who followed Wang Hou from Puyang were quite complaining.
This incident formed a fuse. The dissatisfaction spread. On the tenth day of the Longma Village stationed, Wang Hou had just gotten up early in the morning. What a mutiny for him. More than a thousand new recruits from Langya were yelling around his house in dissatisfaction.
The four Langya Wang family members, Qingyuan, Wenchengtang officers, and Xiao Li family members. These aristocratic families did have more ink than ordinary people, but at home they were in a high-rise courtyard and were used to being spoiled. As a result, Wang Hou came out, all of whom were sleeping openly and eating coarse wheat, which was a big deal.
Especially after the first ugly second-floor collective dormitory was built, Wang Hou actually gave the miners to live. These Wang and Xiao officers were immediately furious and actually took dozens of fellow villagers to protest in front of the temporary command center where Wang Hou lived. Then the terror of the aristocratic family appeared, and there were more than 1,400 people from the same tribe and fellow villagers who became riotous!
How did Wang Hou deal with this mighty mutiny?
Wang Hou was cowardly...
There was no trick, and the control over the troops was still very weak now. This attack only took more than 1,400 people, and there were more than three groups! He didn't want to get out of the crowd, so he could only persuade him with kind words. On that day, he ordered another twenty stone mills to be chiseled, and drove out the miners who lived in, and allocated the ugly second-floor dormitory building to them first.
But Wang Hou is Wang Hou, who is slim and willing to play tricks! A few days after this incident, Wang Hou summoned more than a dozen Wang clans and Xiao clan officers, and gave them dozens of boxes of cloth on the spot, "entrusted them with important tasks" and sent them out on the promise to return to Langya and then recruit troops! How many people can I recruit? Just five thousand!
"Several generals have a good journey!"
It was so hypocritical. He smiled and promised with confidence that when they recruited the troops, they would recommend them to the court as General of the Central Army. The other end would send them out. Standing on the second floor building in the center of Longma Village, watching them walk away, Wang Hou's old face showed a sinister smile.
"Save them to me and continue to demolish them! In a song, there must not be more than ten fellow villagers from a village at the same time. I will put my old subordinates in the first to sixth songs to you. I will train them to death. It is not enough to not peel them a layer of skin!"
What kind of boss and employee are? Now Zhao Yun is actually following Wang Houxue's dark-hearted smile on his face, and he clasped his fists heavily.
"I will obey the order!"
