Chapter 30

The plan of a day is in the morning, and the plan of a year is in the spring.

Among the four seasons of the year, spring is the most important, because spring ploughing is needed in this season. If the spring ploughing is delayed, there will be no food for the whole year, and we will live on hunger. In troubled times, when there are so many people who have been killed, why are the living people still short of food? It was because of the war that they missed the spring ploughing, so they were faced with the plight of lack of food.

Among the Three Kingdoms, many princes were worried about food. For example, Cao Cao, the hero of the Central Plains, had suffered from wars and droughts, and there was no food and grass under his rule, so that his counselor Cheng Yu proposed the so-called "human breast", that is, eating dead human flesh. Because of the shortage of grain, Cao Cao was the first one among the Three Kingdoms to promote the cultivation of farmland.

In the famous battle of Guandu, although Cao Cao sent people to kill Yan Liang and kill the literati and clowns, Yuan Shao's spirit was frustrated, but the real turning point was to burn the black nest. Without food, Yuan Shao's whole army was defeated. After the fourth generation of Sangong, he only took more than 700 horses and fled back to Yecheng.

Although there are still thousands of stone grain and grass in Licheng, more and more people can't stand to throw themselves into Licheng. Liu Ye doesn't want his army to starve to death after defeating the Yellow turban bandits. Therefore, spring ploughing is absolutely necessary.

Liu Ye immediately put up an order that all the residents in the city could go out of the city to farm, and two thirds of what he got was his own, and one third to the Treasury. Nowadays, there is no yellow turban around the city. Therefore, the residents who were still afraid of hiding in the city dare to go out of the city. Anyway, with these invincible defenders, what should the yellow scarf thieves be afraid of?

Seeing that most of the people are willing to cooperate, Liu Ye can't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If these people don't cooperate, he must be able to let them go out of the city to cultivate land. After all, there is no good thing in the sky. After all, he accepted the protection of Liu Ye, but he only knew how to eat but not to plant land. How could there be such a good thing in the world?

The people restored the temporary production order in Licheng. They went out to plant the land during the day and returned to the city to rest at night. When they saw the seeds sprouting, they came out of the fields. A touch of green moistened the vitality of all things. Liu Ye was relieved at last.

However, although the spring ploughing is important, the impact will be a few months later. Liu Ye is even more worried about the impending event.

He is a team leader.

Liu Ye has more than 1000 elite soldiers under his command, and more than 30000 residents have taken refuge in his command. Although it is said that he is in a hurry to exercise power, it is not a proper name and a wrong word.

When Liu Bei started his army, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the commander-in-chief of Liu Bei, who had ten thousand enemies under his command, why was he so bumpy that he failed to build a great cause? It was not because the official position was too small, but the big broken yellow scarf robber only granted a Wenxi County captain. Later, he simply whipped du you and gave up.

Later, the eighteen route princes formed an alliance, and Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, asked him to sit down. He also specifically said, "I let you sit down, not because you are the magistrate of the plain county, but because you are a Han family member.".

When he met the emperor in Xuchang, he was named general Zuo and recognized as uncle Liu. Later, Liu Bei ruled Jingzhou and occupied Bashu, which made a great achievement. Therefore, Cao Cao held the emperor in his hands, and all the princes came to ask him for an official. This is the importance of the position.

Liu Ye doesn't want to be a general, even if he gives it to a military Marquis or other divisions.

"Wude, you lead 20 horses to Jinan City. You must hand this book to the Minister of state, you know?" Liu Ye solemnly hands over the bamboo slips to Wude.

Wu De's face was awe inspiring, and he clasped his fist and said, "elder brother, you have a destiny. You can't help but follow Wu De's will." After that, he walked out of the County Yamen in a big stride. After 20 rides, they all drove out of the city gate.

Originally, after the emperor unified the six states, he changed the country into a prefecture and county system. However, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, enfeoffed all the kings of the Liu family name to protect the world. In the Han Dynasty, in order to weaken the kings, he allowed the kings to grant land to their children, which was called liehou.

By the time of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the state had actually become a county-level administrative region. Although the names were different, the chief executive was the Minister of state or the governor of the prefecture, but in fact they were all under the jurisdiction of the governor of the state, just as today's county-level cities and counties are essentially county-level administrative regions.

The destination of Wude's trip is Jinan City, and the person to give is the Minister of Jinan. Today, neither the county magistrate song he nor the county captain Sun Chang survive. The Minister of Jinan will definitely not be indifferent to Liu Ye. How can he give Liu Ye three melons and two dates.

Liu Ye sits down, frowning and thinking. His thoughts are disturbed by the sound of his feet.

A guard trotted in all the way, kneeling on one knee before five steps from Liu Ye: "big brother! More than a dozen miles away, nearly a thousand yellow turban thieves surrounded a wave of people who came to our city. Brother Xu didn't dare to act rashly, so he came to ask him for advice. "

Liu Ye didn't have time to think about it. He stood up and said, "order Xu Zang to lead the cavalry to gather and go for help first. A certain rate of 500 soldiers will arrive later."

The guard says "here", turns around and goes. Liu Ye is served by his own soldiers, wears helmets and armor, and comes out with a long letter in his hand.

After getting Liu Ye's order, Xu Zang, without saying a word, led more than 200 riders out (Wude sent a letter to take away 20 horses), and ran out in the direction of the Yellow turban thief.At this time, more than ten miles north of Licheng.

"Close together! Young and strong in the front, old and weak women and children in the rear. "

"Don't be afraid of thieves. We will be wives and children behind us. How can we retreat?"

We can see that more than 1000 yellow turban thieves are besieging the people. The number of people is about the same as that of the Yellow turban thieves. However, they bring their families and support the old and the young. There are no more than 400 young and strong villagers. They have a variety of weapons and knives picked up from the road, and some are hoes and harrows for farming.

However, these 400 odd people looked disheartened, but they gathered in a dense formation, all in the periphery, protecting the old and the weak in the middle. These old and weak are their parents, wives and children. Therefore, although the Yellow turban thieves are powerful, they still bite their teeth and fight hard.

"Hold on! This place is only ten miles away from Licheng, and Liu Yuqing's elite soldiers will arrive in an instant. When that time comes, it will be easy to break a thief. "

In the people's array, there were several shouts from afar, and it turned out that there was a man commanding in the middle. It seems that this simple round array was formed under the command of this man.

But the yellow scarf thief cannot attack for a long time, can't help but get impatient.

"It's not far from Licheng, so Liu Yuqing is not easy to be provoked!"
