Speaking of this, Cao Cao's eyes are clear, if it is true what Mr. said, he can gain a reputation for justice in this matter.

From that day on, Cao Cao will have the trust of generals everywhere, recruiting troops and generals will get twice the result with half the effort, and even if he goes to war, he will be the voice of the people.

After figuring this out, Cao Cao re-examined the princes who participated in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. How many of them came to gain fame is unknown.

"and."

Gu Nan leaned against the side of the table, looking casual.

"I heard that the general and Yuan Gong are old friends?"

Hearing Gu Nan mention Yuan Shao, Cao Cao's face was rarely so serious, but smiled.

"Yes, I met Benchu ​​when we were young, like brothers and sisters."

Things in the world will change a person, it has always been like this, and now Cao Cao still doesn't know what he and Yuan Shaoyuan will be changed by this world.

What he still remembers are the two teenagers who were rangers together, got drunk together, and broke into other people's weddings together to make trouble.

"The four generations and three princes of the Yuan family have a reputation that is spread all over the place. In this alliance, Duke Yuan's position is not low, and he can even be the leader of the alliance."

It must be that the bamboo hat was tied a little loosely. Gu Nan tilted the hat slightly and continued to speak.

"The general can make meritorious deeds in the battle, and after that, he can be entrusted with Yuan Gong's land for his meritorious deeds. Gather troops and gather people to wait for the opportunity."

"This." Cao Cao's face was a little embarrassed.

After all, borrowing land from an old friend will inevitably make people feel a little bit embarrassing.

After thinking about it, he asked Gu Nan again: "Sir, when is the timing?"

Gu Nan looked at the map, and his finger landed on a place.

"I don't know if the general knows about Qingzhou yellow scarves?"

Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment, then looked at where Gu Nan's finger was pointing.

"Yellow Turban Army?"

Well, yesterday I saw a debate about Cao Cao. In fact, there is still a big difference between Cao Cao in history and Romance.Although there are also flaws in human beings, no one is perfect. For the evaluation of this historical figure, I am more inclined to Mr. Lu Xun's statement: Cao Cao is at least a hero.

Chapter 297: Always be serious when talking about business

"It's the Yellow Turban Army." Gu Nan nodded slightly.

"After the defeat of the Yellow Turbans, all of them went into exile and fled in separate groups, often causing chaos in various places. Several of them flowed to Heishan, Jizhou, which was the Black Mountain Army. The generals of this army were originally Zhang Yan from the Yellow Turbans. Later, they were recruited by the court. It was Zhang Yan, General Zhang Yan, who was in charge of alleviating the difficulties. He led the army as a group and ruled the mountains in the north of the country. Even so, the princes in the north have their own establishments, and all of them are restrained and unable to move. They want to find a way out."

Although the Yellow Turbans were mentioned in Qingzhou, what Gu Nan first mentioned was not in Qingzhou, but the Yellow Turban Army stationed in Jizhou in Heishan, which had become a regular army.

However, it is a pity that the situation of this regular army is not good. At the time of the Yellow Turban Uprising, this army said that there were millions of people, but in fact there were not so many people. Count 10 people.

However, the leader of this army, Zhang Yan, is different from Zhang Jiao. He is not a man who plots against the world, or his own ambitions are not lofty.

It must be said that this person is somewhat similar to Song Jiang among the heroes of Liangshan in later generations. He hoped to find a decent way out for his subordinates and himself, so he surrendered to the court.

Surrendering in this way, the rebels in the Black Mountain Army who did not want to accept the surrender left one after another, which caused a lot of damage to the power of the Black Mountain Army.

But even so, the number of the Black Mountain Army is still enough to make the princes of all walks of life in the north fearful, and they all plot against it, often hindering it.

And because of the large number of soldiers, most of the hundreds of people have soldiers' family members, so tens of thousands of people often have food and grass shortages, and it also makes it more difficult for the Montenegrin Army to survive.

After talking about the Black Mountain Army, Gu Nan turned to Qingzhou.

"The army of Qingzhou is different from Montenegro. Most of them were exiled from the Yellow Turbans and gathered here. Without a leader, they scattered in chaos. They were all from the green forest and the farmer. Although they are disorderly and disorderly, they cannot form an army."

"Even so, their numbers should not be underestimated."

"Qingzhou's governor is anxious and incompetent. Although Qingzhou has enough soldiers and food, he is not good at leading troops. He often prays to heaven and sacrifices, but he does not prepare for battle. Beihai Prime Minister Kong Rong is a celebrity who has no military affairs. He is not good at military affairs. It is difficult for him to fight."

Gu Nan looked at Qingzhou in the picture, with his palms slightly covered, revealing some hideous scars on the back of his hands.

"If the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou gather together, Qingzhou will be in chaos, and soldiers and horses cannot be regarded as suppression."

"This is the opportunity. When both armies are wounded, the general can take advantage of righteousness in the name, and raise troops to support Qingzhou under the pretext of suppressing bandits."

"With Qingzhou, you can face the world in the North Sea. Settle fields inside to calm the people, train troops and horses, build boats and oars outside, and control the river army. Make a strong army with plenty of food and security inside and outside, and do things on your own."

Qingzhou is located on the side of the world, facing the North Sea outside, where you can train your navy.

At this point, Cao Cao's heart is already moved. If it is true what Gu Nan said, he will have a foothold, and it will be a state with abundant military supplies.

To make his will in this troubled world, he must have his own base and soldiers, and Qingzhou can be the best choice.

But he was not in a hurry, he just stood up calmly, lowered his head thinking about something, and walked back and forth slowly in the hall.

Finally stopped, frowned and looked at Gu Nan, Qingzhou is chaotic, but how is Qingzhou chaotic?

"Sir, how did you know that the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou will gather a crowd?"

"And there are hundreds of thousands of yellow scarves in Qingzhou. If there is a chaos in Qingzhou and the army of one state is still invincible, how will Cao drive them away?"

Indeed, the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou were originally formed by the gathering of the Yellow Turbans from all over the country. Without a unified general, it is nothing to worry about that they are just a group of disorderly people and there is no order.

If their internal disharmony, separate divisions will not have a fundamental impact on Qingzhou.Qingzhou is not in chaos, so what's the matter with Cao Cao?

And the resurgence of the Yellow Turbans, the chaos in Qingzhou, and tens of thousands of people, how can he be sure that he can retreat from the enemy.

"General, the chaos in Qingzhou is the general trend."

Gu Nan said lightly, his eyes moved away from the map, and he looked back at Cao Cao.

"There are hundreds of thousands of people in Qingzhou, and they must have food. However, the army is all homeless people. There is no food supply, and there is no food for the army. If there is no food, they can only be looted. If you divide and don't gather, you will be defeated one by one, and you will perish. .If they get together, Qingzhou will be in chaos."

The disadvantage of the Yellow Turban Army lies in this. They are all disorderly people and have no land to cultivate, so there is no food supply at all. If they want food, they can only plunder everywhere.

Most of the Qingzhou Army were defeated and fled from various places. One or two groups of Qingzhou can still be controlled, but there are too many people, and it is impossible to be peaceful at all, so Qingzhou is bound to be chaotic.

Jiao He, governor of Qingzhou, knew this, but he had no choice but to pray for God's blessing every day.

"As for how to withdraw the Qingzhou Yellow Turban."

Gu Nan smiled slightly, she couldn't see her smile clearly under the bamboo hat, but she seemed to be able to hear a slight sigh from the sound.

"Does the general know how to fortify the wall and clear the field?"

To strengthen the walls and clear the fields means to fortify the walls and clear the countryside.

It is an effective method for the invasion of strong enemies.
