Three Kingdoms Super God Upgrade System

Chapter 205 Find a way to solve the problem

Wu Ming's brows gradually closed. It was indeed the same as what Xun Yu said. The 40 soldiers in Sili were recruited by Han Xing, and nearly 70 soldiers were recruited from Jingzhou, plus the 40 soldiers from Jiaozhou. Horse, the total has exceeded 150W.

Based on the calculation that 1 stone of grain and grass feeds one person for a week, to feed these 1 million people, nearly 150 million stone of grain and grass will be consumed in a year. This does not take into account the huge refugee population. The consumption every day is huge and incalculable.

Wu Ming frowned and said, "I can't let things go wrong in Yizhou. How about this? Is there a good way to provide me with some gold and silver?"

Xun Yu was taken aback, and said, "The general probably wants to buy grain, right? Now the gentry in Jingzhou are almost squeezed out, and the gentry in other states and counties will not sell us grain."

Wu Ming waved his hand and said, "As long as I can find a way to get gold and silver, I can get food and grass."

Xun Yu glanced at Wu Ming doubtfully, but still said: "Jingzhou's taxation is still very objective, and many nobles have been wiped out in the past two years, and they have a lot of background. I have them registered. The general needs If so, I’ll send someone to tally the numbers. I wonder how many are needed?”

Wu Ming thought for a while and said, "Based on 1 million stones of grain and grass, our current ratio is 100 gold to [-] stones of grain and grass."

Xun Yu hummed, and said, "So you need 200 million gold? How about this, if you can't get all the gold together, you will find a way to get the nobles to get it together."

Wu Ming shook his head and said: "You also said that the gentry in Jingzhou were severely suppressed by me, so don't make trouble for them. How about it, 100W of gold is enough."

100?Xun Yu frowned. Ten years ago, it would have been enough to buy a lot of grain and grass, but now grain and grass are as rare as gold. Even if you have money, no one is willing to sell it to you.

He sighed and said: "One million should be no problem. I will ask the people below to count it."

Wu Ming waved his hand and said: "Don't panic, let's discuss the matter in Yizhou first. After all, the food and grass matter cannot be solved overnight."

Xun Yu nodded, and then said: "Well, when it comes to Yizhou, I don't suggest that the general follow Bowen's policy."

"Um?!"

Not only Wu Ming was surprised, but even Liu Ji was stunned. The two of them cooperated very well in Jingzhou. It can be said that there were almost no differences. It was the first time that Liu Ji's plan was denied without thinking like this.

Xun Yu glanced at Liu Ji, and said: "Bowen's plan is too conservative, and he has to use the strategy of diverting disasters to the east because he considers that the general has been fighting all year round and lacks supplies. From Yu's point of view, the general is completely You can ask the emperor for an imperial decree, in the name of recovering the territory, to display the crimes committed by Liu Yan, and go directly to Yizhou."

Wu Ming frowned and said, "But you also said that our supplies..."

Xun Yu's eyes flashed: "But the general also said that the food and fodder problem can be properly solved."

Wu Ming stared at Xun Yu, one second two seconds, time passed silently.

He didn't know how long he had been here, but Wu Ming frowned and said: "If Bowen's plan is carried out, it will not only attack Liu Yan, but also consume the strength of Wuxi Man. It will have a more obvious effect on our army's recovery of the south of Yizhou. .”

Xun Yu heaved a sigh of relief and said, "So the general plans to use Bowen's plan?"

Wu Ming suddenly grinned and said, "No, I still decided to use your plan."

Xun Yu's heart sank. He originally wanted to test the general, but he didn't expect him to agree. Wu Ming...is he really going to betray the Han?

"However... I will arrange for Han Xing to tell Emperor Xian that Liu Yan sits in Yizhou, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. He disrespects his orders and has already become the emperor of the border. He is so rebellious and outrageous. As a general, I must punish him. But Wen Ruo can rest assured that I will not persecute Emperor Xian, on the contrary, I will return the rights to him."

Xun Yu was startled, staring at Wu Ming and said: "It was the general who proposed to take the emperor to make the princes, and return it to the emperor. Isn't the general afraid of making others cheaper?"

Wu Ming laughed and said: "For Wen Ruo to serve me wholeheartedly, I can just give up the place of Sili. It's just whether Emperor Xian can hold the power in his hand, and whether the surrounding princes will scramble to snatch it, I don't know." And I know."

Xun Yu took a deep breath. Sure enough, it was true. Wu Ming was indeed rebellious, and all of this was telling him that he, Wu Ming, had done his best to be benevolent and righteous. If he continued to be stubborn, this would not be what he should do. matter.

Sighing, he said, "Your Majesty, please give the order. This subordinate knows what to do."

Hearing that he finally called the lord, Wu Ming nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand and said: "After half a year, I will call Han Xing who has withdrawn from Sili as the commander-in-chief, lead 50 troops, and launch a fortified battle against Yizhou."

Xun Yu nodded, and said: "Siege the city and pull out the village, food and grass go first, and the general must solve the food and grass problem as soon as possible, otherwise everything will be empty talk."

Wu Ming hummed: "Of course I know, let's talk about Jiaozhou now."

Xun Yu and Liu Ji looked at each other, sat down in their respective seats, and signaled Wu Ming to continue.

"Jiaozhou has always disrespected teachings and is brutal and violent. It goes north to Shenzhou every year and kills innocent people. If it continues, it will definitely be endless. Therefore, we must solve the problem fundamentally."

Xun Yu sipped his tea and said, "The fundamental reason is that the land in Jiaozhou is barren, the people can't farm, and their livelihood is not guaranteed. In addition, their education is backward and they only know how to kill. China is also a state of etiquette. Their arrogance has been exposed, and they have made a living by burning, killing and looting many times."

Wu Ming nodded: "That's right, these are the problems we must overcome. The first step is to implement the trade regulations."

Liu Ji sighed: "Jiaozhou is too poor. Even if we are willing to trade with them, they can't give us anything in exchange."

Wu Ming said with a smile: "No, Jiaozhou is adjacent to the sea and has enough marine products. The most important thing is that their soil layer is thick, fertile and loose, with good water permeability and water retention. It can grow a large number of fruits that cannot be grown in China. , such as dragon fruit and grapes."

Xun Yu frowned and said, "This won't happen overnight. It's really hard to predict what changes will happen during this period."

Wu Ming said with a smile: "During this period, I will send soldiers to plant or teach me how to plant potatoes. Potatoes are easy to grow and grow twice a year. They are coarse grains..."

Xun Yu said, "Wait, what are potatoes?"

Wu Ming was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized that potatoes had not been introduced to China at this time, it seemed that they were introduced in the Wanli period in the 16th century.

However, this is not a problem for Wu Ming. He has 9 points of goodwill with Ming Shenzong, and if he gives a favorable comment, it can exceed 10 points. Some unimportant things can be transmitted, and Ming Shenzong will not refuse to order potatoes.
