Chapter 770
"hahaha ..."
Cao Mengde stands high-spirited and vigorous in the wilderness. This endless jade-green makes people feel refreshed. For this reason He also wrote a poem to express his feelings.
After all, Cao Mengde, an ambitious and ruthless character, is still a bit literary after all.
"Open your eyes, open your eyes!" Cao Mengde sighed and exhilarated: "If you follow Mr.'s plan, you only need to follow the existing pattern without modification, and you don't need to promote this Zhuangzi model. Ten years or eight years, the world will be in its heyday. Thinking about it, it makes people feel restless, and I can’t wait to do it right away."
"The lord said it was very true." Cheng Yu was quite self-deprecating on the side: "I have a very high opinion from my past, but I just look at this Zhao Zhuang, and I am willing to bow to the wind!"
Zhao Yu couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Meng De, Brother Zhong De, don't praise the two of you, or else I must not be blown up?"
Cao Mengde and Cheng Yu hearing this, couldn't help laughing heartily.
This is a few days after Cao Mengde officially entered the East County.
Cao Mengde led troops to defeat the thieves, because Zhao Yu's armor was much more fierce than in the original history. Yu Du and Suigu were all slashed by the battle, and more than half of the thieves were killed and injured, and the rest were killed. Cao Mengde also led Yufuluo's subordinate to Danger Land, and surrendered without fighting.
Originally, according to Zhao Yu's idea, these Xiongnu thieves would all be killed. However, after I changed my mind, I felt that this might also be useful for Fu Luo. 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 woke up early now with his heart of ambitious and ruthless character, his eyes are no longer limited to one state and one county, but to the whole world. Yu Fuluo was originally the Prince of the Xiongnu, and he was directly related to the Tuan family. It was more useful than killing.
Cao Mengde came to dominate the East County. His prefecture is not justified. After all, he is not canonized by the Imperial Court, but by Yuan Benchu, the Great General himself. However, the people's will is determined, it is not him or him anymore.
In the city of Puyang, it took only a few days to properly handle all important military and political affairs before coming to Zhaozhuang to meet Zhao Yu who was busy making paper.
As for Cheng Yu, it was just these few days that he came to Cao Mengde's counselor.
For Cheng Yu, Zhao Yu certainly knows this person. He was one of the earliest strategists who defected to Cao Mengde, and one of Cao Mengde's several important strategists. He is a strong man, ranked first in Cao Mengde's subordinates, and second in very ruthless.
Of course, very ruthless is second, and it is only after Jia Xu has taken refuge in it that he will faintly fall to second, and it is still first for the time being.
He dared to use human flesh as military rations. Wherever he decides, ordinary counsellors are inferior to him.
Cheng Yu is also a man of both civil and military skills. He is not young now, but his style of behavior is not much different from that of a general. He is heroic and extraordinary.
Cheng Yu has a lofty vision and a good view of the overall situation. He was originally from Dongjun, and his hometown is Dong'a. Before Liu Dai had asked him about his plan, he had also been recruited for official positions, but he was rejected. On the contrary, when Cao Mengde came to take charge of the East County, he immediately surrendered, showing Cheng Yu's eyes.
In the past few days, it was Cheng Yu’s assistance that Cao Mengde was able to quickly sort out the administrative affairs of the East County and come to see Zhao Yu in his spare time.
Of course, this is also related to Zhao Yu's many methods. Many joints in the city of Puyang have been opened up by Zhao Yu one after another. Otherwise, even with Cheng Yu's help, they will not be able to stabilize in three or two days.
For Zhao Zhuang, when Cao Mengde entered East County before, he passed by the edge and saw some strange places, which made his heart itch. And when he entered the village at this time, Zhao Yu said from the side, it made him even more shocked by Celestial.
I just feel that the great cause is in sight, and everything is not a problem.
"The next time Chen Gongtai sees Mr., he must surrender." Cao Mengde said with a smile: "I don't know what he will think when he sees everything in Zhaozhuang."
At the beginning, Chen Gong and Zhao Yu bet, but now it seems that they have lost.
"It's just a joke." Zhao Yu didn't care: "Chen Gongtai did it deliberately, but also for Meng De's good."
Cao Mengde said with a smile: "Mr. It’s really admirable."
Zhao Yu took Cao Mengde and Cheng Yu all the way to see many important places in the village one after another. Cao Mengde’s eyes were protruding and it was difficult to take it back. Cheng Yu took all the beards under his jaw. Several twisted and broken. As for the accompanying Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan and Cao Chun, they had already choked silently.
Return to the study in Zhuangzhong and take their seats.
Zhao Yu said: "Brother Meng De is now perfectly out of the 1st Step, and the Second Step is also right in front of him."
He said: "The yellow turban even broke the county seat. Liu Gongshan is afraid to support it. I live. I will invite you out soon. I expect Liu Gongshan will die by the hands of the Yellow Turban. When you break the Yellow Turban, all parts of Yanzhou will recommend you as the Provincial Governor..."
Cao Mengde hearing this , His expression changed: "Sir. Wait a minute. I have been good friends with Liugongshan for many years. Now the East County has been decided. I had planned to invite troops to help. As for the position of Yanzhou Provincial Governor, I will not mention it more."
Cheng Yu on the side disagreed, saying: "Liu Gongshan is very talented and talented. He is the Provincial Governor, which is a disaster for the people. Lord, you come to be the Provincial Governor and rule Yanzhou, which is the general trend. Why the excess tendency to clemency?"
Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong and the others, also simultaneously agree with Cheng Yu: "Brother, what Mr. Cheng said is very true."
"No need to say more." Cao Mengde said: "I want to take Yanzhou , But would not sit and watch Liu Gongshan die in the hands of the Yellow Turban."
Zhao Yu and Cheng Yu looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing simultaneously, so they didn't get entangled in this topic.
Zhao Yu said: “Now that high-yield varieties are in hand, we must step up promotion. With water conservancy facilities, waterwheels, canals, and road traffic, we must start to do it. After all, Zhaozhuang is not big. , I’m afraid it’s difficult to supply. Mengde has to build another workshop to recruit more artisans to make cement, make waterwheels, and forge steel. Then there will be large-scale mining of mines, and everything will start, not careless. ."
"Everything is difficult at the beginning, sir, here is a good start. If I, Cao Mengde, can’t make a fool of oneself, wouldn’t it make a fool of oneself?” Cao Mengde was confident: “As for the establishment of the workshop again , I don’t think it’s necessary, everything here is owned by Mr. Zhao..."
Zhao Yu hearing this, with a straight look: "Meng De first listen to me."
"I am who, Meng De knows. This cement, good seeds, or steel waterwheels are nothing more than things outside of the body. I am full of food and the whole family is not hungry, so what do I want to do? I have to wait for you to come, so I have to give this village to you, what a mess. I'm just disinclined to pay attention to."
Cao Mengde wanted to say something but stopped.
Zhao Yu flicked his sleeves and said again: "In the future, don't talk about this and other matters. If you say more, I will turn around and leave."
Cao Mengde said without saying a word.
But everyone in the room was sighing, Cheng Yu said: "Mr. Zhao is really a national scholar, I can't make it too!" Just treat it as a wood statue, don’t care about the others."
I said to Cao Mengde: "You can find someone to take over as soon as possible, I am happy and relaxed. Now there is a high-yield food base, what's the matter? All are easy to do. I have secretly spread the name of Zhaozhuang, and many commoners are very envious. There must be no hindrance to the promotion of improved varieties."
Anything new always makes people feel uneasy. . Especially with regard to basic agriculture, there are often new crops that require a long period of unnoticeable influence before they can be promoted. Because commoners can't afford any loss, they would rather stay the same than accept new things.
So they must be shown the tangible benefits of the new things, and after Zhao Yu confirmed that Cao Mengde can enter the East County, he has already begun to preach in secret.
The dealer in the dealership is the main force. Only their words can convince others who are also commoners.
Nowadays, not only many commoners yearn for Zhaozhuang, but even the heroes in the city can hardly be restrained. If not Zhao Yu is not what it used to be, even the soldiers in the city are under the control of Zhao Yu. I am afraid that Zhao Zhuang has been patronized by the'thief' how many times.
Now that Cao Mengde is here, I will leave these troubles to Cao Mengde. Zhao Yu doesn't bother to fight with others, it's annoying.
After finishing this sentence, Zhao Yu said again: "As for the exodus of elite species, Meng De doesn’t have to care. This world is going to be unified after all. It doesn’t matter who gets the elite species, as long as the commoners know this. It’s Duke Cao’s good breed, don’t care about influence. Commoners always remember your good, that’s enough. Moreover, promoting good breeds, using coercive means, is not as good as their own, and the efficiency is higher. Therefore, during this period of time, sneaking in I don’t care about digging potatoes in the outskirts of Zhuangtian."
Hearing this, Cao Mengde and the others laughed: "What Mr. said is the truth."
Cheng Yu Can’t help saying: “Then this matter of preaching is the most important thing. The lord is the commoners, and the good seeds are spread all over the world. This act of benevolence and righteousness will bring the talents to their hearts and the commoners’ admiration.”
“Fear There are some people who still think that I am a fool, Cao Mengde." Cao Mengde was nodded, laughed.
"That's a short-sighted person, it's not worth it." Cheng Yu said.
Speaking of the foundation of improved seeds, Zhao Yu said of cement: “Cement is widely used for building cities, roads, and various public facilities. Meng De must recruit more artisans. Today, what’s hoarded in the warehouse may not be used a few times."
Zhao Yu said: "Especial seeds can be spread, but cement and steel essence must be kept secret. If they fall into the hands of others, it’s impossible to say That's a big deal."
Cao Mengde deeply agrees.
"steel essence, I have a clear separation of the processes of refining and cement firing. I can increase the efficiency to the highest level with the least number of people, and also have considerable confidentiality capabilities. Now money has Colored glaze, soap, and grain have good seeds. The infrastructure has cement. The armor is sharp and strong, but there is steel essence..."
Zhao Yu's tireless instructions made Cao Mengde quite moved: "Mr. You After a lot of hard work, if Cao Mengde doesn't make a big career anymore, I can just go to the river and commit suicide."
Afterwards, Zhao Yu moved out of Zhaozhuang and returned to live in the small courtyard in the city. As for Zhangwang Wangtian Bailishi and the others, and even Yu Dianwei, 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 the assistance of Cheng Yu, the promotion of improved varieties, various public facilities, roads and canals, and city restoration started in an orderly manner.
And Cao Mengde himself, a few days later, guarded Puyang with Xiahouyuan, he took Xiahou Dun and the others, led troops all the way to the east of Yanzhou, and assisted Liu Dai.
