Chapter 36 Dian Wei: What do you want to do? (Thanks to [Jing Chu Feilong] brother 3 times
In October of the third year of Chuping,
Cao Cao defeated the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, successfully took over Yanzhou, and temporarily assumed the post of governor of Yanzhou (the imperial appointment has not yet been announced).
After taking over Yanzhou,
The first thing Boss Cao did was to rectify the state affairs and appease the people.
Then the second thing is to reward according to merit,
After the war was over and such a large territory was captured, naturally the brothers under my command should also be promoted and those who should be sealed should be sealed.
The eight counties of Yanzhou are now in Cao Cao's hands.
Previously, his position as governor of Dongjun was given to Xiahou Dun, who performed most outstandingly in the Battle of Yanzhou.
Not only was Xiahou Dun his clan brother, but his abilities and achievements were all there, and no one had any objections.
Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jibei, was an old teammate of the princes when they were fighting against Dong, and he was one of the few men who understood the righteousness and could cherish each other with Cao Cao.
This time it was Bao Xin who initiated the initiative to welcome Cao Cao into Yanzhou, so in terms of credit, he should actually be the one with the greatest credit.
Bao Xin was still the Prime Minister of Jibei, and also served as the governor of the country, helping Cao Cao handle Yanzhou affairs.
Xun Yu was promoted to Yanzhou Biejia and became the true second-in-command under Cao Cao.
Xi Zhong repeatedly made clever plans to help Cao Jun defeat the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans. He accumulated meritorious service and was appointed as Military Advisor Zhonglang General.
Then there are Zhao Yun, Xia Houyuan, Le Jin and others, all of whom have been promoted to varying degrees, so I won't go into details here.
Yanzhou is full of wastes waiting to be revitalized.
Referring to the successful model of Chenliu County, Cao Cao began to vigorously promote farming and build water conservancy projects.
He appointed Zaozhi, a famous scholar from Yingchuan, as the magistrate of Dong'e County.
Military and civilian settlements began to be implemented in Dong'e County and surrounding areas.
Soon afterwards, Cao Cao recruited Man Chong as an employee to assist Zaozhi in farming affairs.
After all the appointments were made, Cao Cao found that the number of talents under his command was still too few.
In the past, when the territory was not large, I felt a little stretched.
Now that we have an entire state and eight counties, the talent gap is so huge that it’s almost too big...
From this, Cao Cao remembered the recruitment order he had issued when he was in Chenliu County.
So this time, he repeated his old tricks and began to issue recruitment orders throughout Yanzhou, and specifically proposed "recruiting talents only."
In the hope that more talents will come to serve him.
However, the meritocracy order to seek talents has shaken the interests of the aristocratic families and caused some dissatisfaction among the Yanzhou gentry.
only,
When a series of transfers, appointments and deployments in the state capital are completed,
Only Chenliu County,
But still looking quiet,
seem,
Both it and them have been forgotten by Boss Cao.
Of course this is not the case, let alone that Boss Cao has really forgotten a group of good brothers in Chenliu County.
Cao Cao had his own considerations in doing this.
He didn't want to make any big moves to irritate Zhang Miao.
Even if Zhang Miao is destined to rebel, Cao Cao hopes to delay it for a little longer and give himself and Lu Yan more time to prepare.
At the same time, it was precisely because Boss Cao already knew that Chen Liujun was secretly accumulating strength under the leadership of Lu Yan.
So now he is deliberately downplaying the existence of Chenliu County to the outside world.
So that some careerists will not notice Chenliu County, thus making Chenliu County the strongest trump card in Cao Cao's hand.
What no one expected was that,
Before Lu Yan and Boss Cao waited for Zhang Miao's rebellion and the arrival of Lu Bu and Chen Gong,
Instead, he first seduced the other hungry wolf that had been dormant for a long time and was already coveting Yanzhou...
...
The end of September means that the autumn harvest is almost complete.
This year, Chenliu County has an additional working population of nearly 200,000 people, and more than 100,000 hectares of fertile land have been newly cultivated.
In addition, the civilian and military villages improved and implemented by Lu Yan improved the efficiency of farming.
So this autumn, Chenliu County ushered in a great harvest.
The existing granaries in Chenliu County are bursting at the seams!
There is also the first pile of food, and there is no place to put it!
"Too much, damn, I've never seen so much food before!"
"Zhenniang, Cui'er... If you can hold on until Chen Liu, we won't have to be separated forever... Wuwuwu..."
"All this was brought by Cao Gong and Lu Zhonglang. Because of them, we can have food to eat."
"Thank you Mr. Cao, thank you Lu Zhonglang, we must work hard and repay them..."
...
In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the people and increase the cohesion of people's hearts,
Lu Yanxiao used some methods from later generations, which are common to everyone, with rhythm...
In fact, you don’t have to do it deliberately. People have these things open in their hearts, but if you know it, you still have to say it, right?
How do others know that you think the same thing as him?
How do others know that you are actually wearing the same pair of pants?
So sometimes a little guidance is necessary...
Today, the sky is bright and clear, Lu Yan and Guo Jia are skipping work...
And at this time,
A strong man with a fierce appearance and two heavy iron halberds on his back slowly walked to the gate of Chenliu City.
The soldiers guarding the gate saw the burly appearance,
A big man with a fierce face,
Plus the two large iron halberds he carried on his back,
Suddenly, they felt like they were facing a formidable enemy, and they all spontaneously gathered together.
"Gudong..." The captain of this group of soldiers couldn't help but swallowed, and then asked:
"Come... who is coming?
Come to Chenliucheng, why...what...what's the matter?"
"I am Chen Liuji, my surname is Dian and my name is Wei. I heard that Duke Cao was a man of merit, so I came here to serve him!"
This big man is Chen Liuji and I am Dianwei.
The fierce man who was called the evil from ancient times by Boss Cao,
Because he had killed someone to avenge a friend in the early years, he temporarily left Chenliu and went to another place to avoid the limelight.
Recently, after Dian Wei learned about Cao Cao's new round of "recruiting talents only" order issued by Yanzhou,
He then set out to return to Chenliu, preparing to join Cao Cao in his career.
With Dian Wei's body, appearance, and these two thick and hard weapons,
Along the way, he was always thought of as a ruthless person who blocked roads, killed people and drank blood. He was used to it.
So at this moment, facing the soldiers of Cao who were waiting for him, but who were so nervous that they began to sweat, he could still bear the patience to explain.
Without waiting for the guard captain’s reply,
Yu Jin heard that a fierce bandit was coming at the gate of the city. After the soldiers informed him, he led a squad of 100 people and arrived just in time.
When he arrived, he happened to hear Dian Wei's reply announcing his home address.
Yu Jin couldn't help but asked again in surprise:
"This strong man, what was your name just now?"
"My surname is Dian, my given name is Wei, and I am Chen Liuji."
Dian Wei replied angrily, his tone gradually becoming more vigilant, and he thought to himself:
"Looking at this general's reaction, could it be that he has heard my name?
Is it possible that you still remember the time when I killed someone to take revenge?”
After Yu Jin heard that it was indeed Dian Wei,
He couldn't help but look up and down, and then suddenly laughed and said: "Hahaha! God is really helping me!"
Dian Wei gradually narrowed his eyes: "What do you want to do?"
