Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Although it is still not as good as Yuan Shao's fierce generals and counselors like rain, at least Boss Cao's subordinates at this time are already full of talents.

On the left hand, Lu Yan was placed first by Cao Cao, even surpassing Xun Yu, Yanzhou's nominal second-in-command.

The military commander is Xiahou Dun who stands in the first place, not only because he is good at fighting, but also because he has a unique skill in governing the local area.

Almost no one would object to Lu Yan's ranking, because Boss Cao said not long ago, "Without Lu Yan, I, Cao Mengde, would have died countless times."

When Lu Bu entered Yanzhou and fought, Chenliu County turned the tide.

This event has left an indelible memory in the hearts of many people.

Lu Yan took advantage of the trend and became the most mysterious and unpredictable existence in their hearts.

While others were reporting various news, Lu Yan glanced back at Boss Cao's current team.

Needless to say those familiar faces, today, Lu Yan did see several unfamiliar faces that were relatively high in the rankings.

There are two more generals. I heard someone introduced them before. One of them is called Lu Qian and the other is called Shi Huan.

There are several more literati here, but there is only one relatively well-known figure named Dong Zhao.

Dong Zhao was promoted as Xiaolian when he was young, and later he served as Yuan Shao's tent and joined the army.

However, Dong Zhao offended Yuan Shao somehow, and had no choice but to leave Jizhou and join Cao Cao.

Dong Zhao was regarded as an important minister of Cao Wei and a founding father in history. Although his reputation is not as good as Xun Yu, Xun You and others, his credit and resume are not small at all.

Cao Cao looked at the hall full of people and felt more confident about his future.

After everyone finished their routine reports, Cao Cao said:

"According to the spies, Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu and occupied Youzhou;

Tao Qian died of illness and entrusted Xuzhou to Liu Bei;

Yuan Shu sent troops to occupy Shouchun and Hushi Jiangdong;

Lu Bu entered Qingzhou and formed an alliance with Yuan Shao's forces, which had already cornered Tian Kai.

Everyone, the general trend of the world has become clear, what should we do next?

You don't need to worry, you can speak freely! "

The war has subsided, and the household registration reform has also entered the final stage.

Now that the new year is just around the corner, Boss Cao summoned all the important civil and military officials in Yanzhou to gather in Juancheng for Cao's version of the "Five-Year Plan".

When it comes to strategy, Boss Cao's subordinates Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai are among the best.

However, after Lu Yan came to Juancheng and found that Xi Zhicai was not in good health, he strongly "suggested" Boss Cao to give Xi Zhicai a three-month vacation.

The amazing thing is that Xi Zhicai, who even Boss Cao couldn't dissuade, immediately compromised after seeing Lu Yan...

This made Boss Cao very emotional, and said: "Only Mr. Lu can truly restrain Xi Zhicai."

Xi Zhicai is on holiday, so only Xun Yu came to sing a one-man show in today's conference hall.

Taking a step outside, Xun Yu cupped his hands and said to Cao Cao, "My lord, Yu and Zhicai have discussed the trend of the world."

After Cao Cao stretched out his hand to ask, he said, "Wen Ruo, tell me!"

"Now the form of the princes from all walks of life has become clear.

In order to strengthen themselves and guard against their surroundings, the princes will enter a short period of peace.

The world will also usher in a precious respite from the chaos. "

"Mr. Lu, what do you think?" Cao Cao turned his head, looked at Lu Yan and asked.

Hearing Cao Cao calling him, Lu Yan quickly opened his heavy eyelids and replied, "Wen Ruo said so."

"..." Boss Cao's mouth twitched slightly, and he thought, "I'm afraid you didn't even hear what Xun Yu said..."

However, Boss Cao would not offend Lu Yan in front of everyone. He nodded and asked Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, according to your intention, we will also enter the rhythm of recuperation from now on?"

Xun Yu clasped his hands again and replied, "That's right, in the next two years, my lord should recharge his batteries, repair his armour, and train his elite."

This time, Lu Yan didn't lose his mind anymore. After Xun Yu finished speaking, Lu Yan also cupped his hands and said to Cao Cao:

"Mr. Cao, dormancy is necessary. When Yanzhou recovers from the reform, it is time for us to send troops to wipe out all the heroes in the world!"

Lu Yan's words were spoken so boldly that all the generals got goosebumps.

"I, Xiahoudun, would like to be the vanguard and send troops to wipe out the heroes for my elder brother!" Xiahoudun was the first to jump out, clasping his fists and shouting.

"And me, Cao Ren!"

"Xia Houyuan, willing to be the vanguard!"

"Father, my child is willing to be the uncle and lieutenant!"

......

Cao Cao looked at his brother and son with a smile, and after finishing his speech, he replied, "No hurry, there will be more opportunities in the future!"

After these people retreated, Cao Cao discussed many things with everyone again.

However, Lu Yan has been frowning since he answered a sentence just now, looking preoccupied.

There is indeed something very worrying in his heart, because: "In the first year of Xingping, there has been no rain since April. As for autumn and July, Gu Yihu is worth 50 yuan, and people in Chang'an eat each other!"

The first year of Xingping is the fifth year of Chuping!

It's just that it's still the beginning of the year, and the year name hasn't changed.

"A severe drought is coming... This year, the tragedies of cannibalism will be staged one after another..."

In the first year of Xingping, the biggest enemy of the Han people was not the Xiongnu, and the biggest enemy of the princes was not other princes.

What they have to face together is the wrath of heaven, natural disasters!

Seeing that Lu Yan remained silent for a long time, and kept frowning in thought, Cao Cao thumped in his heart, and asked, "Mr. Lu, I saw that you were frowning, but what did you think of?"

Cao Cao's question made the lively hall suddenly quiet.

When Lu Yan saw that Cao Cao asked about it, it was difficult for him to directly tell about the possible severe drought this year.

After all, history has changed quite a bit now.

If the words are spoken, but the drought does not come, wouldn't the community die by then?

Thinking of this, Lu Yan said in a guessing tone:

"Cao Gong, the land of the Central Plains has experienced continuous vicious battles, and the people have already struggled to survive.

Yan is a little worried... If the weather is good this year, it will be fine, but if some natural disaster happens, the tragedy of cannibalism will probably happen again! "

"Changsheng, are you overly worried?" Xun Yu asked in a low voice behind Lu Yan.

This kind of pretentious worry is indeed a bit too much in the eyes of others.

"Maybe there will be a natural disaster this year?" Cao Cao, who knew Lu Yan's old background, was alarmed, "Since Mr. Lu said it, it should probably be almost..."

Just when everyone felt that Lu Yan's worries were outrageous, Cao Cao replied abruptly:

"Mr. Lu's concerns are justified.

In this way, all the governors and ministers of the state, after you go back, you should focus on preventing various possible natural disasters! "

"..."

Chapter 2 One Thing Drops One Thing

End of the meeting,

Although Lu Yan's last suggestion was a guess, Cao Cao's emphasis on it exceeded everyone's expectations.

Even Lu Yan himself was a little surprised, so he cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Cao, the natural disaster is only Yan's guess..."

Cao Cao didn't wait for Lu Yan to finish, and said, "It's okay, anyway, it's always right to plan ahead."

Now that Cao Cao has said so, everyone can only obey orders.

It's just that there was an extra expenditure of human and financial resources for no reason, which made some county guards feel a little headache, and even became a little dissatisfied with Lu Yan.

However, Lu Yan didn't care what these people thought.

After the meeting, he walked out of the chamber first.

"Sir, wait a minute, sir!" Man Chong caught up with Lu Yan from behind.

Lu Yan turned around and saw that Man Chong was calling him, so he stopped and said, "It's Bo Ning, long time no see!"

Man Chong came to Lu Yan, bowed his hands and said: "Chong, I have met Mr.!"

"When did you and I become so divided?" Lu Yan said with a smile, pulling up Man Chong.

Man Chong took two steps forward, came to Lu Yan's ear and asked, "Sir, I know you never target without purpose. You mentioned natural disasters just now, did you have a premonition?"

It has to be said that Man Chong still knows Lu Yan very well.

Thinking about him, Lu Yan usually wants to hand over everything in his hands, so how could he inexplicably put some big things on himself?

"Mister's words definitely mean something else..." Suddenly someone spoke behind them, and it turned out that not only Man Chong, but also Cao Ren chased after them.

Lu Yan glanced at Cao Ren and Man Chong, then looked at the pointers of the people around him, and said with a smile: "Let's talk when we go back, it's not convenient to talk here."

......

Back at the post house, Lu Yan explained in detail to Man Chong and Cao Ren that there will be a severe drought in April.

One of them is the prefect of Dongjun, and the other is the prefect of Yingchuan. Naturally, they also have to be responsible for the people under their rule.

Man Chong and Cao Ren looked at each other in disbelief. If it wasn't for the fact that the person in front of them was Lu Yan, who they trusted and respected from the bottom of their hearts,

But if it's another person, Man Chong's first reaction might be to let him have a whip first before talking...

The records of drought in ancient Chinese history are often shocking.

Even the most serious, it has reached the point where the Yellow River has stopped flowing, the land is withered, and people cannibalize each other.

What makes the people even more uncomfortable is that locust plagues often follow severe droughts, and the hardworking people already have nothing to eat, and this situation is even worse.

After the catastrophe, there will be another catastrophe. After this series of blows, the people obviously cannot survive.

What else can I do if I survive?All they can do is to rise up and fight for a way out by themselves!

The Eastern Han Dynasty came to the end of the year in this way, to the current situation where the building is about to collapse and the heroes stand side by side.

Under the control of Li Jue, Guo Si and others, the Han court has completely lost its majesty.

Although the princes still respect it on the surface, no one really takes it seriously when it comes to the orders issued by the Han court.

Yanzhou survived the most difficult period with great difficulty, but he didn't want to face another brilliant heaven...

"Sir, how to prevent this severe drought?" Man Chong asked Lu Yan.

From the moment he walked out of the Governor's Mansion, Lu Yan was racking his brains to recall the drought-resistant methods from later generations.

What people do their best is to build water conservancy.

Construct large, medium and small reservoirs, build ponds and dams, configure irrigation and drainage channels,

Digging wells and pools to achieve water storage, water conservation and rational use of water.

To be honest, Lu Yan also has a headache. After all, ancient times are no better than modern times, and it is almost impossible to completely prevent them.

"I need some time to sort out the countermeasures. You two should go back first. After I sort it out, I will send someone to give it to you."

"Here!" Seeing Lu Yan frowning, Cao Ren and Man Chong felt the horror of this crisis more and more.

After walking out of the room, Man Chong murmured: "When faced with thousands of troops, I have never seen Mr. frown so unmovingly..."

Cao Ren then said with emotion: "Yes! It seems that it will be very difficult to get through this calamity safely..."

"It's ridiculous that those short-sighted people still make irresponsible remarks to Mister."

"Hehe, it's okay if they took precautions according to the master's words. If they didn't, then they can ask for blessings."

After Cao Ren and Man Chong left,

Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, and Cheng Yu hurried over again.

These three people are the civil servants and advisors under Boss Cao who know Lu Yan best.

They also knew that it was impossible for Lu Yan to aimlessly and cause trouble for himself for no reason.
