Dominate Marvel
Chapter 25 Succession
"Hahaha..."
Cao Mengde stood in the wilderness with high spirits. The endless blue color made people feel comfortable. He even wrote a poem to express his feelings.
After all, Cao Mengde, a heroic figure, is still a bit of a literary youth.
"It's an eye-opener, it's an eye-opener!" Cao Mengde exclaimed and said excitedly: "If we follow Mr.'s plan, we only need to follow the example of the gourd and spread the model of Zhuangzi. In less than ten or eight years, the world will be prosperous. In this world, just thinking about it makes people feel restless and want to do something big right away."
"What my lord said is true." Cheng Yu was quite self-deprecating at the side: "I have always had a high self-esteem, but I just took one look at Zhao Zhuang and I was willing to be inferior!"
Zhao Yu couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Mengde, brother Zhongde, you two should stop flattering me, or else I will be blown away?"
Cao Mengde and Cheng Yu couldn't help laughing when they heard this.
This was a few days after Cao Mengde officially took charge of Dongjun.
Cao Mengde led his troops to defeat the rebels, because the armor provided by Zhao Yu was much more fierce than in the original history. Yu Du and Sui Gu were both killed by the formation. More than half of their bandits were killed or wounded, and the rest were surrendered. Yu Fuluo's troops were also led into a desperate situation by Cao Mengde, and they surrendered without fighting.
Originally, according to Zhao Yu's idea, all the Huns traitors were to be killed. But then I changed my mind and thought that this might still be useful to Fulo. As for the thousands of Huns cavalry, they could also be used as cannon fodder. It would be a pity to kill them directly.
Cao Mengde originally had this idea.
He has awakened his heroic heart early now, and his vision is no longer limited to one state or county, but to the whole world. Yu Fuluo was originally a Hun prince, directly related to the Luotang family. It would be more useful to save his life than to kill him.
Cao Mengde took charge of Dongjun. His position as governor was actually not justified. After all, he was not conferred by the imperial court, but by Yuan Benchu, a self-proclaimed general. But the people are determined, it's not him but him.
In Puyang City, in just a few days, all important military and political affairs were properly handled, and then he came to Zhaozhuang to meet Zhao Yu who was busy making paper.
As for Cheng Yu, it was Cao Mengde's adviser who came to join him in the past few days.
Regarding Cheng Yu, Zhao Yu certainly knew this person. He was one of the first counselors to defect to Cao Mengde, and one of several important counselors under Cao Mengde. He is the first among Cao Mengde's men for his strong character, and the second for his ruthlessness.
Of course, the second most ruthless person will only faintly fall to the second place after Jia Xu takes refuge. For the time being, he is still the first.
He dared to use human flesh as food for his army, and when it came to making decisions, ordinary counselors could not match him.
Cheng Yu is also a man of both civil and military skills. He is already quite old, but his behavior is almost the same as that of a military general. He is heroic and extraordinary.
Cheng Yu has a high vision and a good view of the overall situation. He is originally from Dongjun, and his hometown is Dong'a. Liu Dai had asked him for advice before and recruited him to serve as an official, but he was rejected. On the contrary, when he saw Cao Mengde taking control of Dongjun, he immediately came to join him, which shows Cheng Yu's vision.
In the past few days, with the help of Cheng Yuxiang, Cao Mengde was able to quickly sort out the government affairs of Dongjun and come to see Zhao Yu when he had time.
Of course, this is also related to Zhao Yu's many methods. Many joints in Puyang City have been opened up by Zhao Yu long ago. Otherwise, even with Cheng Yu's help, he may not be able to stabilize in three or two days.
As for Zhaozhuang, when Cao Mengde entered Dongjun before, he passed by the edge and saw some strange places, which already made him feel itchy. But when he entered the village and saw Zhao Yu narrating from the side, he was even more shocked.
I just feel that a great cause is in sight and everything is no longer a problem.
"Next time Chen Gongtai sees Mr. Chen, he will definitely admit defeat." Cao Mengde smiled and said, "I wonder what he will think when he sees everything in Zhaozhuang."
Chen Gong made a bet with Zhao Yu, but now it seems that he has lost.
"It's just a joke." Zhao Yuhun didn't care: "Chen Gongtai didn't do it deliberately, it was also for Meng De's good."
Cao Mengde smiled and said: "Sir, your mind is really admirable."
Zhao Yu took Cao Mengde and Cheng Yu to see many important places in the village one by one. Cao Mengde's eyes were protruding and difficult to recover, and Cheng Yu had several strands of beard under his chin broken. As for Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan and Cao Chun who were accompanying them, they were already speechless and choked.
Returning to the study room in the village, everyone took their seats.
Zhao Yucai said: "Brother Meng De has now taken the first step perfectly, and the second step is just around the corner."
He said: "The Yellow Turbans have repeatedly destroyed the county, and Liu Gongshan is afraid that he will not be able to hold on. I will ask you to take action soon. I predict that Liu Gongshan will die at the hands of the Yellow Turbans. If you defeat the Yellow Turbans again, all the places in Yanzhou will elect you as the governor." ..."
When Cao Mengde heard this, his expression became calm: "Sir, wait a minute. Liu Gongshan and I have been friends for many years. Now that Dongjun has been decided, I have already planned to send troops to help. As for the position of Yanzhou governor, there is no need to mention it."
Next to him, Cheng Yu disagreed and said: "Liu Gongshan has great ambition but little talent. If he becomes the governor, it will be a disaster for all the people. My lord, you will be the governor and lead Yanzhou. This is the general trend. Why should women be benevolent?"
Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong and others all agreed with Cheng Yu: "Brother, what Mr. Cheng said is very true."
"No need to say more." Cao Mengde rolled his sleeves and said, "I want to take Yanzhou, but I will not sit back and watch Liu Gongshan die at the hands of the Yellow Turban."
Zhao Yu and Cheng Yu looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, so they stopped dwelling on this topic.
Zhao Yu then said: "Now that we have high-yielding and improved varieties, we must step up the promotion of them. Along with water conservancy facilities, water trucks, canals, and road transportation, we must start to work on them. After all, Zhaozhuang is not big, so I am afraid it will be difficult to supply. Meng De It is necessary to build another workshop, recruit more craftsmen, burn cement, make waterwheels, and forge steel. Then it will be necessary to mine mineral deposits on a large scale. Everything has just begun, so we can't be careless."
"Everything is difficult at the beginning. Sir, I have made a good start here. If I, Cao Mengde, can't show off, won't I be a fool?" Cao Mengde was full of confidence: "As for setting up another factory, I don't think it is necessary. Everything here belongs to Mr.... ."
When Zhao Yu heard this, his expression straightened: "Meng De, listen to me first."
"Mengde knows who I am. This cement, good seeds, and steel waterwheels are nothing more than external possessions. I can feed myself and the whole family is not hungry, what else do I want to do? I have been waiting for you to come, and I will take care of this Zhuangzi Leave it to you, I don’t care about any nonsense.”
Cao Mengde stopped talking.
Zhao Yu flicked his sleeves and said: "Don't mention this kind of thing in the future. If you say one more thing, I will turn around and leave."
Cao Mengde immediately fell silent.
Everyone in the room had sighs in their eyes, Cheng Yu said: "Mr. Zhao is a real scholar, I am not as good as him!"
Zhao Yuhun didn't care: "Just don't treat me like a wooden fetus and offer me up. Everything else doesn't matter."
He said to Cao Mengde: "You can find someone to take over as soon as possible, and I will be happy and relaxed. Now that we have a high-yielding grain base, everything can be done easily. I have secretly let people spread the name of Zhaozhuang, and many people are very interested in it." Envy. There will be no obstacles in promoting good seeds."
Anything new always makes people uneasy. Especially for basic agriculture, new crops often require a long period of subtle cultivation before they can be popularized. Because the people cannot afford any losses, they would rather stay the same than accept new things.
Therefore, they must see the real benefits of new things, and after Zhao Yu was sure that Cao Mengde could take over Dongjun, he had already begun to promote it secretly.
The banker in the village is the main force. Only their words can be believed by other people who are also common people.
Nowadays, not only many people yearn for Zhaozhuang, but even the powerful people in the city find it difficult to restrain them. If Zhao Yu hadn't become what he used to be, and even the soldiers in the city were controlled by Zhao Yu, Zhao Zhuang would have been visited by 'thieves' countless times.
Now that Cao Mengde has arrived, these troublesome matters will be left to Cao Mengde. Zhao Yu is too lazy to fight with others. It's annoying.
After saying this, Zhao Yu added: "As for the leakage of good seeds, Meng De doesn't have to worry about it. The world must be unified after all. It doesn't matter who gets the good seeds, as long as the people know that they are Cao Gong's good seeds, it doesn't matter." Care about the issue of power. The people always remember your good deeds, and that is enough. Moreover, promoting improved seeds and using coercive means is not as effective as doing it on their own, which is more efficient. Therefore, during this period, those who secretly dug potatoes outside the farmland, I I don’t care.”
Hearing this, Cao Mengde and others burst out laughing: "What you said, sir, is exactly the truth."
Cheng Yu couldn't help but said: "Then this propaganda thing is the most important thing. My lord is for the people, and the good seeds will be spread all over the world. This benevolent and righteous act will surely make the talented people return to their hearts and be respected by the people."
"I'm afraid some people still think that I, Cao Mengde, am a fool." Cao Mengde nodded and smiled.
"That's just a short-sighted person, it's not a good thing." Cheng Yu said.
After talking about the foundation of fine seeds, Zhao Yu then talked about cement: "Cement has a wide range of uses. It is indispensable for building cities, building roads, and various public facilities. Mengde must recruit more craftsmen. The ones currently hoarded in the warehouse are afraid that It won’t be used a few times.”
Zhao Yu said: "Good seeds can be spread, but cement and fine steel must be kept secret. If they fall into the hands of others, it will be a big harm."
Cao Mengde thought so.
"I clearly distinguish the processes of steel refining and cement firing. I can maximize the efficiency with the fewest people and maintain confidentiality. Nowadays, money has glass and soap, and food has good varieties. For foundation, there is cement for infrastructure, and for soldiers and armor to be sharp and strong, there is fine steel..."
Zhao Yu's tireless instructions moved Cao Mengde: "Thanks to your hard work, sir, if I, Cao Mengde, don't achieve great success, I might as well commit suicide by drowning myself in the river."
Then Zhao Yu moved out of Zhaozhuang and returned to live in a small courtyard in the city. As for Wang Wang, Tian Bailishi and others, and even Dian Wei, they were all handed over to Cao Mengde. For a while, I was alone again.
As expected, Cao Mengde did not disappoint Zhao Yu. With Cheng Yu's assistance, the promotion of improved varieties, various public facilities, roads and canals, and city repairs all began in an orderly manner.
A few days later, Cao Mengde himself used Xiahou Yuan to guard Puyang, and he led Xiahou Dun and others to the east of Yanzhou to assist Liu Dai.
