Just after the third round of the wine feast, suddenly a doorman from the Mi family came from Xuzhou to report the news. "Top" point "small" said, www.

Seeing the appearance of the doorman who was spitting and spitting and wanting to speak, Mi Zhu in order to show the Son of Heaven that he would never hide his selfishness, loudly instructed the doorman to directly bring the information: "Everyone here is the humerus of the imperial court, and there are no outsiders, so it doesn't hurt to say it directly!" ”

The doorman gave up his hand: "The second master went to Pengchengguo to serve as the minister of state seven or eight days ago......"

"I've learned about this, what's wrong?" Mi Zhu put down the bamboo chopsticks in his hand and asked Gujing Bubo.

After Mi Fang was appointed, he sent someone to quickly inform Mi Zhu, who was transporting grain and grass, and asked his brother for his opinion. Mi Zhu guessed that this was probably a countermeasure discussed by Tao Qian and Chen Qi's father and son, intending to rise and secretly descend to seize Mi Fang's military power.

The 40,000 Xuzhou soldiers stationed in Xiapi, including the team managed by Mi Fang, have been managed by Tao Qian for many years, and the core backbone is composed of Tao Qian's descendant Danyang soldiers, so Mi Fang is nominally in charge of this team, leading the encirclement and suppression of the bandits, and quelling a rebellion.

Such military power is chicken ribs in the hand, and it is not a pity to lose it. In this case, it is better to let Mi Fang go to Pengcheng to serve as the state minister, the emperor is far away, and slowly turn Pengcheng into the Mi family's private territory, and then unite with his hometown Donghai County, then the Mi family's strength will be greatly improved.

The second advantage is that one day when Liu Wei and Tao Qian go to war, Mi Fang can open the door and surrender. Dedicate the entire Pengcheng country to seek wealth for yourself. In the future, both brothers will be officials in the court. You can have a response!

After weighing it, Mi Zhu believes that the advantages of this matter outweigh the disadvantages. So I wrote a letter back to Mi Fang, "You can go to work, you must be careful in everything". It was because he had analyzed the matter thoroughly before, so now that he listened to the doorman's report, Mi Zhu was not surprised.

But the next words of the doorman made Mi Zhu panic, "After the second master arrived, Peng Chengguo's troops were empty, and there were only 3,000 defenders left, and the Yellow Turban of Pei County invaded the territory with 40,000 strong after learning about it. The second master was in a hurry and planned to transfer 5,000 guests from Xiapi to Pengcheng for defense! ”

"Confused, how can this work? This is obviously Tao Qian dug a pit and let our Mi family jump inward! ”

Mi Zhu is a smart man. At a glance, he knew that this was Tao Qian's plan to kill people with a knife, and he couldn't help but shoot the case.

The reason why Tao Qian has been so respectful to himself over the years is not because he has more than 10,000 private soldiers in his hands, if he folds it in half in Pengcheng, the Mi clan will be in danger in the future!

"Give me a quick horse to return to Xiapi, and none of the remaining doormen are allowed to move! Sue sΓΉ Zifang, give up Peng Cheng! ”

In Mi Zhu's eyes, it was obvious that this was a family matter, so he did not ask for the opinions of Liu Wei and others present. Instructions were given directly to the doorman.

Liu Wei laughed and said: "Mr. Zizhong doesn't have to worry, when he receives the favor of others, he should be reciprocated by a spring, and Qin Qiong's army is stationed in Fan County, which is only more than two hundred miles away from Pengcheng. I wrote a letter to Qin Qiong, and Qin Qiong divided one of the men and horses to go to Pengcheng to relieve the siege! ”

To be honest, for Mi Fang, a traitor who ate inside and out, led Guan Yu to death. Liu Wei was very disgusted, and even hated Wu Jiwu. Even with Mi Zhen, he didn't have much of a good impression of him. The reason why Qin Qiong decided to send troops was to thank Mi Zhu for sending charcoal in the snow. secondly, it is also to strive for their own interests; As long as the Mi clan defected, then the two counties of Pengcheng and Donghai were at their fingertips, so Liu Biaocai decided to let Qin Qiong send troops to relieve the siege of Pengcheng.

"Thank you, if that's the case, Peng Cheng's surname is Liu Ye!"

Mi Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately got up to bow and thank him. It is also a very happy thing for Tao Qian to be able to lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.

While the city was drinking, the people outside the city were also feasting. The Son of Heaven has decreed that all the people should eat with open stomachs tonight, as long as they can eat, no matter how much!

After six or seven days of recuperation, the people's bodies have recovered a lot, and their complexions have become much more ruddy. In the early morning of the next day, Wang Meng began to divert the refugees, and each of them transferred 100,000 people to Donglai and Jiaodong, escorted by officers and soldiers along the way, and provided with food.

After arriving at the localities, the government issued plows and hoes and other agricultural tools, and under the leadership of the government, the wasteland was reclaimed in a unified manner, striving to sow crops as soon as possible and achieve self-sufficiency. As for the housing to live in, it is also up to the local government to help solve the problem.

The remaining 100,000 people remained in Beihai to replenish the local depreciated population, and the local government also arranged housing and land reclamation. All the people must obey the dispatch, exchange their labor for food, and strive to reclaim a good field as soon as possible, and no longer have to eat without food to satisfy their hunger with tree bark and grass roots!

The transfer of hundreds of thousands of people can be described as vast and cumbersome, but under Wang Meng's control, it is orderly and busy. The 300,000 men were divided into three groups, one group stayed in Beihai, and the other two groups migrated to Donglai and Jiaodong respectively under the escort of officers and soldiers.

With a stroke of his pen, Liu Wei allocated 50,000 stone of grain and 3 million coins to the governments of Jiaodong and Donglai, which were used to solve the food rations of the refugees and purchase agricultural tools for land reclamation. He also allocated 10 million copper coins to Zheng Chenggong at the port of Jiaoxian County, and ordered him to buy materials, build the port, and strive to improve the base camp of the Qingzhou Navy as soon as possible.

The 300,000 stone of grain is enough to last for more than three months, and then the support grain and grass from Jiangdong and Runan will be delivered one after another. In addition, Donglai's grain has not been damaged, and it is estimated that more than 100,000 stones can be harvested after entering August, which will be used to alleviate the food crisis and support the situation until the beginning of spring next year.

The situation in Qingzhou finally made Liu Wei let go of his hanging heart, and now the only thing he is concerned about is the Zhuge brothers, Yue Yun led the team to go for seven or eight days, why has there been no news so far? After thinking about it, he couldn't rest assured, and sent Wen Yang to lead more than 1,000 horsemen to respond separately, striving to take the Zhuge brothers to Juxian County as soon as possible.

After the delivery of the money and grain, Mi Zhu was concerned about the property of Xiapi, fearing that Tao Qian would have a black hand behind his back, so he bid farewell to the Son of Heaven as soon as possible and led his private soldiers to the south.

As the sun sets, a small river flows quietly.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the stream. It looks sparkling.

The Zhuge brothers and two guards stationed their horses by the stream, squatting by the stream and holding the clear stream water to wash the dust on their faces. One by one, the wolf bèi is unbearable. And the four mounts were also foaming at the mouth with tiredness, and their limbs were constantly twitching.

The scene just now still made them still feel uneasy. When they passed through Lanling County, they encountered a gang of robbers, seven or eight hundred people, shouting that they would leave their horses and heads.

Fortunately, most of the robbers were on foot, and Zhuge Jin and the others were fast, and they kept whipping their mounts along the way, and finally led the robbers behind without danger.

"I walked more than 1,400 miles from Xiangyang to Linyi, and the road was safe and sound, but I didn't expect to return to my hometown Langya, but I met a robber. It seems that my hometown is a little unwelcoming to me! Zhuge Liang laughed at himself while wiping the water droplets on his cheeks with a handkerchief.

Zhuge Jin said with a look of admiration: "The Runan and Huainan places we have walked all the way are under the rule of the Son of Heaven, Wu has Yue Pengju to guard, Wen has Xun Wenruo to govern, naturally Haiyan River is clear, and the road is not left behind!" And Langya is under the rule of Tao Qian, and the public security situation naturally cannot be the same as that under the rule of the Son of Heaven! ”

One of the accompanying guards was also from Langya, listened to the conversation between the Zhuge brothers, and interjected: "Alas...... Originally, Langya had been recovered by His Majesty. I didn't expect to be replaced by Tao Qian again, it's really a pity! ”

"Brother Tai doesn't have to worry, Liang believes that this is just an expedient measure of the Son of Heaven, and it will not take three years. Tao Qian will perish! Zhuge Liang tidied up his messy clothes and said confidently.

Zhuge Jin raised his eyes to look east, and muttered to himself: "Go more than a hundred miles forward and you will be the hometown of Yangdu." Three hundred miles further north is the drama county where His Majesty is located. I wonder if Yue Yun can arrive safe and sound with his brother and daughter-in-law alone? If there are three long and two short. How do you explain to Mr. Huang? ”

"Brother, don't worry, Brother Yingxiang is young. But the strength is a bit incredible, coupled with the skillful riding skills, I'm afraid that ordinary thieves can't help him, maybe they will have returned to the drama county at this moment! ”

Zhuge Liang patted his brother's shoulder and said calmly. Although he is six years younger than Zhuge Jin, his height is already in the middle of this brother's.

At this moment, another guard stomped his feet and shouted: "It's not good, I was chased by the bandits just now, and I lost my bag with dry food, it's really damned!" ”

At this point, it is useless to complain.

The four of them rested by the river for half an hour, let the mounts eat enough grass and drink enough water, and then turned over and got on their horses. He braved the night to find the village, hoping to beg for food and not go hungry for the night.

But what was disappointing was that I walked forward for more than ten miles until it was completely dark, and I didn't see a single house.

In addition to being disappointed, another guard kept complaining and complaining, although Zhuge Jin was also hungry and screamed, but he had no choice but to be a peacemaker and persuade: "Brother Zhang didn't mean it, after all, he fled in a hurry, don't blame Brother Zhao!" ”

Zhuge Liang rode his horse and walked in front, and with his keen eyesight, he found that there was a fire not far ahead, and he couldn't help cheering: "Don't quarrel with the two, there seems to be a fire in front, let's wait for some food in the past to deal with it all night, and it's not too late to do it tomorrow!" ”

The four of them rode forward, drove two miles, and gradually arrived at the place where the fire was.

When I got closer to the front, I saw that this was not a village, but a caravan camp camp, with more than 20 tents connected to each other in the wilderness, and at this moment more than 200 guests and men, women and children of the host's family were picnicking in front of the campfire. There were more than twenty wagons parked next to the tent, and dozens of sturdy men were carefully guarding them.

Seeing Zhuge Jin and his entourage riding horses, the doormen shot bows and arrows one after another, and warned loudly: "Who is coming?" If you dare to move forward again, the bow and arrow are ruthless! ”

Zhuge Jin arched his hand on the horse and said: "Don't dare to deceive, I met a robber on the way and lost dry food!" I couldn't find a village for a while, so I dared to beg for a ration to satisfy my hunger, and there were only four of us waiting for them, and there was absolutely no evil intention! ”

The doormen of the caravan raised their torches one after another, and saw clearly that there were indeed only four people who came, so they let them come to the front to talk.

The owner of the caravan was a man of nearly sixty, his body was slightly blessed, his skin was well maintained, and his speech and demeanor were very imposing, and he arched his hand towards Zhuge Jin and said, "Old man Cao Song, has been living in seclusion in Kaiyang. This time, I want to lead my family to Xuchang to join Wu'er Mengde, I don't know where a few handsome heroes want to go? (A pie-in-the-sky event, cool phones are waiting for you!)
