Chapter Thirty-two, but as Sima, I may have two requests
Fang Guang called Dian Wei, and in front of everyone in Cao's camp, he shot his halberd through the wine jar within 20 steps. There was no miss, which made Cao Cao very happy, and he promised to be the captain of Wu Meng on the spot.
, awarded Dian Wei.
Cao Mengde looked at Fang Guang, touched his beard and pondered.
"Datong, my expedition to the east has been hasty. Although I asked you to supervise the affairs of the east county, you still hold the position of captain of the guard army. It is really unfair with your talents!"
There was a hint of self-blame in Cao Cao's words. Fang Guang quickly waved his hand and said that he was a new official and his official position was not too small.
At the same time, I knew in my heart that he was an outlier in Cao Ying. His literary skills were not of the Yingchuan lineage, and his military skills were not a close relative of Wei Wu. He was a martial artist in Qiao County.
The official promotion is fast, but there will be obstacles in doing things. When he entered Cao Ying, he was supported by the spirit of destroying the big ears. Fang Guang really didn't care whether he was a big official or a small official.
Cao Cao took it seriously and waved his hand to tell Fang Guang not to be humble.
"Datong, you have the talent to rule the country in literature and the courage to conquer the city in military affairs. You have some ideas about how to arrange your arrangements for me!"
"I am the shepherd of Yanzhou, and I can be entrusted with the position of Sima in other departments. The Sima will manage the army on horseback, and the people on horseback. The most important thing is talent and virtue!"
"In my tent, there is only one Sima from other departments, Wen Ruo. From today on, you are also the Sima of Yanzhou. Sima Fang is not something that a warrior like Bian Xi dares to ignore!"
Cao Cao thought so carefully for Fang Guang that Fang Guang couldn't help but be secretly grateful.
"Then thank you very much, Duke Ming, but I will help Sima Ding assist Duke Ming and stabilize the world!"
Fang Guang bowed modestly, and the generals who followed Cao Cao back here also congratulated him.
"Datong, you are still young. When you reach my age, Duke Ming will be the mainstay of the imperial court. It is not impossible for the Third Duke to think of you!"
Cheng Yu, who had always admired Fang Guang, couldn't help but blush.
In the thatched cottage, Xia Houyuan's face was full of regret and he was mumbling.
"Lord, I think Datong is the most suitable to lead the army. If you are a Sima, wouldn't it be better to be promoted to a lieutenant general and help me conquer the Quartet?"
Xia Houyuan wanted to say more, but Cao Cao glared at him, and then he shrank his neck and said nothing.
Among the generals, Yu Jinyan couldn't help but flash his eyes when he saw that Fang Guang had been granted the title of Sima.
The position of Sima from other departments is already above that of his own captain.
Xun Yu remained calm, thinking to himself that he came to his lord the year before last, and it took two years for him to become Sima.
Fang Guang was born in the Yellow Turban, but within a month he was already on par with him. This son was so lucky to be in this position, and it seemed that Ming Gong favored Bai Ding from a humble family, which seemed to have deep meaning.
Fang Guang was granted the title of Sima, so tea was naturally not enough to keep him entertained. Jun Jian had already brought drinks.
Cao Cao felt very fond of it today. After several bowls of wine, his face was already flushed.
"My lord, since you are already a Sima, Fang Guang has a few unkind requests, please kindly grant me your lordship!"
"I'm sorry, but you want to tie Liu Xuande to the tent? Datong can rest assured that Liu Xuande is not worth mentioning. One day Datong will get his wish!"
Cao Cao was drunk and dazed, but Fang Guang shook his head seriously.
"My lord, that's not right. Liu Xuande has a sinister heart and will be punished by heaven and earth. There are two things I want!"
"First, my lord, please transfer Lieutenant Han Hao, who is under the command of General Xiahou of Juancheng, to come to Cangtingjin and work with Zaozhuan, the commander of Dongjun, to take care of the farming affairs!"
The Han Hao mentioned by Fang Guang was the master of farming in history.
From Wang Kuang Yuan Shu's place, he came to Xiahou Dun's command, and now he is stationed in Juancheng as the Cavalry Commander.
Cao Cao didn't expect that Fang Guang's first request was to transfer someone. He was thinking about who Han Hao was, so he didn't answer for a while.
When Xun Yu saw this former Yellow Turban Colonel today, he was so excited that he felt a sigh of relief in his heart.
Now that Fang Guang was meddling in personnel affairs, in Xun Yu's view, it was somewhat over the line. The number one civil servant in Cao Cao's camp saw Cao Cao not replying, and stood up in silence.
"Lord, there must be a context for everything that happens in a state. Although Datong is smart, Han Hao is a captain who was trapped in the battle. Datong has never seen this person, so he rashly transferred him to the field. Isn't it a bit childish?"
"Even Zao Zhuan is the person I recommended. The Dongjun magistrate is in charge of prisons. I don't think it's appropriate to go farming now."
After Xun Yu finished speaking, he looked at Fang Guang and nodded with a smile.
Fang Guang looked at him and smiled brighter than Xun Yu, but he refused to give in at all.
"My lord, Zao Zhuan is a talented person who has brought great wealth to all the people in Cangtingjin. Everyone knows that he forgets to sleep and eat, and his bedding is in the fields. Such official duties lead to the state of forgetfulness. Isn't it the perfect combination of Taoism and Taoism in the sages' books?"
"Han Hao, I dare to say so. Rather than charging into battle, a loyal and respectful person is the most important person in charge of food and crops. My lord, in just one year, Zao and Han can save 300,000 dendrobium of rice for my lord!"
"
"Three hundred thousand dendrobium?"
Cao Cao, who was deep in thought, his eyelids twitched when he heard the numbers in Fang Guang's mouth.
Seeing that Xun Yu wanted to talk more, he waved his hand to indicate that the matter should not be discussed further.
"Okay, that's it. Let Han Haodong come to Cangtingjin. In addition to the Cavalry Captain, he will have the post of Tuntian Colonel. The same is true for Zao Zhuan. Datong, tomorrow you take me to meet this strange man in person!"
"If I really want my warehouse to be full of rice every year, I will still be granted a high official title!"
"Promise, Datong has the order!"
Cao Cao supported Fang Guang and made everyone in the tent look at each other.
No, in the past few years, my lord has always obeyed Xun Yu's advice, but this time it was different.
"My lord, the second thing is that Fang Guang also asked my lord to bring a lot of money and go south to Cangwu County and Nanhai County to look for rare treasures that can be used by my army!"
"Exotic treasure? What is that? But a fine sword and sharp blade?"
"No, if you are newly married in Datong, do you want coral pearls?"
In Cao's camp, the generals noticed Xun Yu's embarrassment, so they all speculated and changed the subject.
Cao Cao looked at Fang Guang with suspicion on his face and a thought flashed through his mind.
This kid won't take advantage of his own happiness and really want something flashy.
Seeing everyone's eyes sweeping over him, he shook his head and stood up.
"Lord, what I seek is not weapons and pearls, but Cangwu, the seed of rice and wheat in the far south of the South China Sea!"
"To be honest, everyone, I heard that there is a strange species in the world that can grow half the yield of rice and wheat. It can also change the farming season and pay equal attention to rice and wheat!"
"Rice cannot be grown in the land of Yanzhou. In the future, Ming Gong will go south to expand the soil. If he finds a strange plant, he can pay equal attention to rice and wheat. He can cooperate with the people to build an army and raise millions of soldiers. Who in the world can do it?"
Fang Guang's idea is to use material and food to oppress. He places such emphasis on this method because he knows that in history, Cao Cao relied on his own abundant food and fodder, and then intercepted other people's food and fodder, and repeatedly defeated the strong with the weak.
Sure enough, what Fang Guang said touched Meng De's heart, and Cao Cao, who had drunk too much, laughed and stood up.
