The battle with Yuan Shao is not trivial.
Naturally, troops cannot be sent in a hurry.
All kinds of pre-war preparations, certainly can not be less.
Money and food.
That is also the problem?
Lao Cao now has money and grain.
Terracotta.
Don’t worry about it.
Steel production skyrocketed.
The weapons, armor, weapons and other equipment were so strong that even Cao Cao was afraid when he saw it.
Soldiers, don’t worry about it.
Now when I am a soldier, I can not only eat enough, but also eat meat every day.
For military merit, there is money and grain, field rewards, and knighthood.
If you die in battle, you will receive a generous pension, and your relatives will also receive preferential care.
As soon as the conscription order was issued in the newspaper, people who signed up for the army gathered like clouds.
War horses, don’t worry about it.
Shen Xuan’s plan to exchange wine for war horses has already begun to bear fruit.
In just a few months, 6,000 good horses have been exchanged from foreign races.
All that is paid for is low-quality spirits with high alcohol content and violent violence.
The only thing that worried Cao Cao was the princes.
At war with Yuan Shao, Huainan Yuan Shu, Jingzhou Liu Biao, and Jiangdong Sun Ce would do something to stab him in the back at any time.
At that time, Cao Cao would have to face the dilemma of fighting on three sides.
Therefore, the pre-war integration must be in place.
After making sufficient preparations, it is necessary to quickly defeat Yuan Shao with the momentum of thunder, and then pacify the entire north.
Cao Cao’s Northern Expedition ordered.
The huge war machine quickly began to operate.
End of June.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the troops.
At this time, something happened that made Cao Cao’s brain hurt.
From the beginning of May, to the whole of June, the rain did not fall.
It is now in the Xiaoice period, and the climate is very abnormal.
Winters are terribly cold, but summers are extremely hot.
If it doesn’t rain in summer, it’s even worse.
A reduction in grain production is certainly inevitable.
However, sweet potatoes and potatoes have been widely promoted.
Even if there is a major drought, there will be no famine.
What’s more, there are drought-resistant artifacts such as the Water God Car.
What gave Cao Cao a headache was that I don’t know when it started, and rumors were everywhere.
said that because Cao Cao listened to the rumors of the demon people, he acted perversely and angered the heavens.
Therefore, it did not rain for two months in a row.
There are also rumors that it is even more vivid.
It is said that the Great Han Tianzi is a real dragon.
Now that the true dragon is trapped, it is naturally impossible to apply rain.
The rumors are absurd.
In this era, it is very marketable.
Not to mention the common people, the princes and nobles all believe in this.
For a while, rumors flew all over the world.
Cao Cao hurriedly summoned his advisers for consultation.
He is certainly not afraid of rumors.
But I’m afraid to shake the hearts of the army!
The great war has not yet begun, and the army’s heart is shaken, which is a taboo.
In a battle with Yuan Shao, no mistakes can be made.
The advisers couldn’t let it rain.
After deliberating for a long time, naturally there was no result in the discussion.
“Where is the National Master?”
At this time, Cao Cao remembered Shen Xuan.
During this time, Shen Xuan did not mix much with political affairs.
Cao Cao hadn’t seen him for more than half a month.
Mentioning the national teacher, Xun Yu said with a smile: “It is said that the national master built a large bathhouse in the mansion, and he has fun with beautiful people every day, beautiful, fast!” ”
“National Master, worthy of being a fairy man!”
Cao Cao and the others all showed envy.
“Go, go to the National Master’s Mansion, I’ll enjoy it later!”
Cao Cao waved his big hand, led all the counselors, and went straight to the National Master’s Mansion.
Come to the National Teacher’s Mansion.
The people below say that the national master is in the same pool as Cao Jie, Zhaoji, and Sable Cicada.
Do?
Swim?!
“National Master, what a blessing!”
Cao Cao’s expression became ambiguous.
Xun Yu, Guo Jia and the others felt a burst of contempt in their hearts.
Whoever is unscrupulous with the national teacher has your daughter.
You make that expression.
Is this the expression that a father should have?
Several people waited for a while.
Only then was he taken into the back house and came to a pool.
The beauties all shunned.
Only Shen Xuan was left alone, still soaking in the swimming pool.
Xun Yu walked around the swimming pool, and his mouth was amazed.
Xun Yu said: “Master, look at this pool, I don’t know what it is coated with, it is extremely hard, and the water in the pool is dripping without leakage!” ”
When Cao Cao and the others saw that this was indeed the case, they were all surprised.
Could it be that it is also an immortal law?
“This is not an immortal method!”
“It’s called cement, and it’s not complicated to make.”
“Use this object to build houses and pave roads, and in a few days it can solidify like rock, indestructible.”
Shen Xuan explained.
Hearing this, Cao Cao and the others all had burning eyes.
Xun Yu said: “If the national master presents this law to the imperial court, it will definitely benefit the country and the people, and benefit all generations!” ”
“This thing belongs to the Xiaoyao Chamber of Commerce, if the imperial court wants it, it will be bought with money!”
Political affairs have now been straightened out.
Shen Xuan didn’t want to mix the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce with the official mansion.
Brothers, you must also settle the account.
Cao Cao, Xun Yu and others no longer mentioned this matter.
Xiaoyao Chamber of Commerce, Lao Cao accounted for 30% of the shares.
Xun Yu lost more than one million money to Shen Xuan last time, but Shen Xuan finally forced it to get it.
However, this money was invested by Shen Xuan in the name of Xun Yu into the Chamber of Commerce.
Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, these advisers, under the pressure of Cao Cao, also invested money in the Chamber of Commerce.
Even Jia Xu voted a lot.
Now they are all on the same boat of the Xiaoyao Chamber of Commerce.
No matter how selfless the prince is, he can’t take his own money to subsidize the imperial court.
Besides, the imperial court will not be poor in money in the future.
Cao Cao and the others were all as hot as dogs.
Seeing Shen Xuan soaking in the water so pleasantly.
So all of them were polite, and they all took off their clothes and went into the water.
Shen Xuan was very annoyed.
Nima!
It’s all red striped groundwater.
People who are so big don’t know shame?
Look at the people Xiaocao Festival and Zhaoji and Sable Cicada.
They all wear tight clothes when they go into the water.
If only they were all like this…
Not crooked, all drooling.
Soaking their whole body in water, Cao Cao and the others all shouted with joy.
Enough is enough.
Only then did Cao Cao begin to ask about business.
“It’s nothing more than the decay of some foolish and loyal Han Family, and the powerful of the world, who are stirring up trouble!”
Shen Xuan saw the source of the rumor at a glance, and smiled indifferently.
Guo Jiadao: “Why didn’t the national master order Cao Zijian to write an article and refute it in the Dahan Daily?” ”
Shen Xuan shook his head.
“Rumors are this thing, the more you argue, the more fierce it will spread. There is no way to stop rumors! ”
Cao Cao was overjoyed: “Please teach me by the national teacher!” ”
Shen Xuan said lightly: “Next rain, the rumors are self-defeating!” ”
Xun Yu smiled bitterly: “What if it doesn’t rain all the time?” ”
Shen Xuan asked, “When is Meng De going to send troops?” ”
Cao Cao shook his head and said, “It’s undecided. ”
“That’s on the eighth day of July.”
“On the seventh day of the first month of July, Meng De set up an altar to pray for rain from the sky, and it only takes one heavy rain to eliminate all rumors and boost morale and people’s hearts!”
Cao Cao looked confused.
You’re not kidding?
Set up an altar for rain?
You think I’m Tiangong General Zhang Jiao?
Set up an altar, do a ritual, and the rain will come?
Cao Cao suspected that Shen Xuan was deliberately playing tricks on him.
There can be no evidence for the time being.
Xun Yu and the others were also stunned.
Shen Xuan said: “Meng De don’t worry, you are the destiny of heaven, you ask the heavens for rain, and the heavens will definitely agree.” ”
Cao Cao smiled bitterly: “If you can’t ask for rain, isn’t it even more rumor?” ”
Xun Yu and the others shook their heads.
If you can’t ask for rain at that time, why is it just a rumor?
Shen Xuan said resolutely: “If on the eighth day of the first month of July, Meng De can’t ask for rain, I will…”
Xun Yu hurriedly stopped: “National Master Shenyan!” ”
He thought that Shen Xuan wanted to establish a military order.
If Cao Cao did not ask for rain, he would die to apologize.
Behold.
Shen Xuan said lightly: “Meng De begged for rain, if the heavens did not respond, then I… Draw your sword and cut the sky! ”
The understated tone, but it is boundless domineering, and full of pressure.
