Three Kingdoms: I, the Emperor of Wei, am loyal and honest!

"Lord, I have something to say. Please listen carefully, Lord.……"

An old and heavy voice broke the silence of Shouchun Hall.

Immediately, he attracted the attention of all the civil and military personnel of the Zhong family present.

Even Yuan Shu's dull eyes suddenly moved and moved towards the person who spoke.

As expected, it was still Yan Xiang.

That upright and stubborn Yan Xiang.

Only this time, Yan Xiang no longer called Yuan Shu your majesty, but instead called him lord.

Seeing that Yuan Shu's eyes were finally brighter, Yan Xiang didn't care whether Yuan Shu let him speak or not, and said directly:"Zhang Xun and other 80,000 soldiers and horses were defeated by Cao Ang along with Lu Bu.

Now we, Huainan and Runan There are only 70,000 troops and horses available in various parts of Lujiang.

Before Cao Ang sends his troops south to attack Shouchun, if Sun Ce of Jiangdong gets the news, he will definitely not let go of this opportunity to annex the lord. Although there is no one to challenge him, he is not popular with the princes.

Now that the lord has been defeated twice and hundreds of thousands of troops have been lost, he can hardly protect himself.

Then those princes who used to wait and see may also raise their heads to rebel. Flag, take advantage of the lord's defeat to divide the lord's territory"

"At this time, my lord is on the verge of life and death. I sincerely request my lord to resign as emperor and dedicate the imperial seal to my lord's brother Yuan Shao, asking him to send troops to help.

Only in this way can Cao Cao, Cao Ang and his son be restrained from going south.

And Liu Biao of Jingzhou was a wise man. Even if he knew that his lord was defeated, he would not do anything to make him lose his temper.

What's more, after the lord resigned from the imperial title, he resumed his status as a Han minister, and Liu Biao could also help the lord openly.

Moreover, Liu Biao and Jiangdong Sun Ce had a grudge against their father, and the two families often fought against each other.

If the lord gives Liu Biao food, grass, money and silk, then he will cede half of Runan County bordering Cao's Chen County to Liu Biao.

Liu Biao ordered Huang Zu, who stayed behind in Jiangxia, to lead Jiangxia troops to contain Sun Ce from Jiangdong.

Furthermore, Liu Yao from Yuzhang County and Liu Yao's subordinates occupied Jingxian County, Danyang County. Taishi Ci, who claimed to be the governor of Danyang, Shanyuequ Shuaizulang, Wang Lang, the governor of Kuaiji County, and Yan Baihu, the bandit from Wucheng Mountain, etc., were all fighting against the separatist forces in Jiangdong County. Sun Ce.

The lord then sent envoys to make good friends with these forces, so that they could harass Sun Ce's hinterland.

Then Sun Ce can be weakened and the situation in Huainan stabilized."

"In this way, the lord used half of Yangzhou's Huainan County and Lujiang County to recuperate, appease the people, and recruit troops for farming.

Then he recruited Qu Shuai 27, Han Siam and Yang Feng, who were stationed in the mountains between Xu and Yang.

In less than a year, some strength will be restored, and there will be an army of hundreds of thousands more.

At that time, we can ally with the lord's brother Yuan Shao in the north and Liu Biao in Jingzhou in the west. We will first destroy Sun Ce and regain Jiangdong, occupying half of the southeastern half of the country.

Then he sent his army north to attack Cao Cao and his son with Yuan Shao and Liu Biao.

In this way, the three families can share most of the world.

Even if Liu Zhang of Yizhou is added, it only accounts for a quarter of the world.

If the Lord is good at practicing virtuous government, the people under his rule will be rich and the army will be strong, and the government will be harmonious and harmonious.

Then, as the legitimate son of the lord Yuan family, he can recruit the Yuan family's disciples from the old capital to join him. Then the lord's power may be better than that of other families and dominate the world.

It will not be too late to restore the imperial title at that time"

"Even if he takes a step back to divide the world into four parts, the lord can still rely on the natural dangers of Jianghuai to dominate the southeast and form his own country, just like the overlord Wu Yue during the Warring States Period.……"

Yan Xiang's policy and discussion can be said to be every word, and it resounds throughout the Shouchun Hall.

No less than Zhuge Liang's Longzhong pair.

Of course, Zhuge Liang is only sixteen years old now, has not yet come out of the mountain, and has not yet had his rightful wife in the world.

Yan Xiang's Shouchun confrontation made all the civil and military personnel present couldn't help but nod their heads, and even showed surprise in their eyes.

I am so impressed!

Yan Xiang first persuaded the Yuan family to resign as emperor, thus losing a big burden and not being enemies with the princes.

He can also use the jade seal to reconcile with Yuan Shao's brothers and contain Cao Cao and Cao Ang's father and son.

Immediately afterwards, Runan County was used as a bargaining chip and ceded to Liu Biao. Liu Biao could not only use Jiangxia garrison to contain Sun Ce, but also throw away the territory bordering Cao's Chen County. There was no need to send troops to defend Cao Cao and his son, thus shrinking the defense line and saving troops. horse.

It can be said that the hot potato has been moved.

Then recruit Han Siam, Yang Feng and other Yellow Turban remnants of the White Wave Army, which can strengthen Huainan's military strength and give them time to recuperate and farm to raise troops.

They also formed alliances with Liu Yao, Taishi Ci, Wang Lang, Yan Baihu, etc. to harass Sun Ce's inner circle and weaken Sun Ce's strength.

These consecutive actions can not only save Yuan Shu's current critical situation, but also weaken the threatening enemies around him, allowing him time to recuperate.

It can be said to be a great plan for governing the country!

Among the ministers present, there were many who were disappointed with Yuan Shu and were thinking of finding another big tree to seek refuge with.

However, there are also some disciples of the Yuan family who are loyal to Yuan Shu because they remember their past friendship.

But just now, when they learned that 80,000 Yuan's troops had been wiped out in Xuzhou, these Yuan family diehards all felt that the Zhong family's court was in dire straits and there was no hope of a comeback, so they were depressed and despairing.

But now, after Yan Xiang's analysis and suggestions, they really saw the hope of reviving Huainan's momentum, and dividing the world into four quarters or even unifying the world!

"My lord, Mr. Yan Xiang’s words are actually good words of gold and jade, and they are also a plan of heaven and man!

Please adopt Yan Xiang's strategy, regroup, and work hard to become stronger.

In a few years, the weather in Huainan will be even stronger than when it was at its peak.……"

Yang Hong also stood up and echoed Yan Xiang's policy eloquently.

Like Yan Xiang, he no longer called Yuan Shu your majesty, but instead called him lord.

"Seconded!"

"I also second the motion!"

All of a sudden, those old civil and military veterans who were still loyal to Yuan Shu in the main hall also agreed one after another.

Even some people who had thought that Yuan Shu was going to die and were planning to find another big tree to hug him now also felt that Yan Xiang of���With some planning, there is much to be done.

If this plan is followed, Yuan Shu has a great chance of making a comeback.

Some guys who wanted to betray others have also changed their minds.

Even those who are not optimistic about this and are determined to vote for someone else can only second the proposal in this case.

This uniform voice is quite powerful.

Coupled with the beautiful blueprint Yan Xiang planned for him, Yuan Shu couldn't help but feel a little excited, and the look in his eyes gradually returned.

He picked up the honey water on the dragon table in front of him and took a big sip to moisten his throat. Yuan Shu seemed to be resurrected with full blood.

First, he reluctantly touched the imperial seal in his hand, and then gritted his teeth and said:"Okay! I... I will tell the world that I will retire from the imperial title and resume my status as a Hanchen."

I made this difficult decision. Later, Yuan Shu ordered people to install the jade seal passed down to the country, and sent an elder from the Yuan clan as an envoy to go north to deliver the jade seal to Yuan Shao, asking his brother to send troops to help.

At the same time, Yan Xiang, Yang Hong and others were asked to write letters, which were sent to Han Xian, the commander of the Baibo Army, Yang Feng, Liu Yao, the prefect of Yuzhang, Wang Lang, the prefect of Kuaiji, Taishi Ci, Yan Baihu and others.

As for Liu Biao, Yuan Shu sent Yang Hong to personally bring the map of Runan County, household registration, seals and other tokens to Liu Biao's army as an envoy.

After doing all this, Yuan Shu seemed to have thought of something, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes:"Zhang Xun was defeated and captured, and I will not hold him responsible for the defeat.

But Leju Liang Gang and other generals, who are leading the main force of the army, Surrendering to Cao Ang without a fight betrays my trust.

Their families are unforgivable!

They captured all the family members of Lejiu Liang Gang and other traitorous generals, beheaded them all, and made them slaves. Become a camp prostitute!"

Seeing that Yuan Shu was beginning to hold the defeated army accountable, Yan Xiang did not persuade him this time.

After all, a general who surrenders without a fight is guilty.

Even those who had other ideas and wanted to keep Le Liang Gang's family and form a friendship did not dare to speak when they saw Yuan Shu's angry look.

But there are also a very small number of people who have an undetectable glint in their eyes.

Only they knew that the families of those generals were no longer in Shouchun.

Even their own important family members were secretly sent away...

Sure enough, not long after, the people Yuan Shu sent to capture the traitor general's family members came back empty-handed and reported to Yuan Shu the news that people had left the house empty.

Even the spies sent by Yuan Shu to monitor the families of the generals who were on the expedition were discovered to have either been killed or had fled Shouchun.

At this moment, how could Yuan Shu not understand that it was Cao Ang who had done a good deed by picking up the family members of the generals who had surrendered to him in advance... which made Yuan Shu furious again and scolded Cao Ang in the hall.……

……

"Negative energy from Yuan Shu +99"

"Negative energy from Yuan Shu +99"

"From Yuan Shu……"

In Pengcheng, Cao Ang was inspecting the newly minted five-baht coins sent by the craftsmen. Suddenly he noticed the negative energy that was constantly refreshing in his mind, and he immediately smiled.

It seems that Yuan Shu already knows that his 80,000-strong army is gone.

��However, even if you know it, what can you do?

After the Pengcheng matter was settled and the troops and horses were reorganized and drilled, he would send his troops south to attack Shouchun.

Even if Yuan Shu made some moves to protect himself, including scheming and attacking, he would probably be too late.

Because Cao Ang's use of troops will be faster than Yuan Shu's self-rescue!

After withdrawing his thoughts, Cao Ang looked at the newly minted five baht coins in front of him.

Different from the five-baht coins seen by later generations, which are full of vicissitudes of time, the five-baht coins in front of Cao Ang are not the light green color seen by later generations, but are in red, shining with light gold.

This is the characteristic of the newly minted five-baht coin, or the new copper coin.

It's just that the slight difference in the proportion of copper and lead used to make the coins makes the color and brightness of the red gold different.

The green copper coins seen in later generations are due to the oxidized patina of copper, so ancient bronze wares became bronze in later generations.

Cao Ang grabbed a handful of five-baht coins that still had a slight tempering smell, and felt that they were heavy and very weighty.

It is different from the various trimmed five-baht and worn-out five-baht that were previously circulated on the market. The materials used are extremely solid. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

This is because Cao Ang materialized all the bronze veins drawn by the system, and minted new money with the bronze rewarded by the system.

Previously, Cao Ang extracted hundreds of tons of copper veins from a gold blind box.

So in order to obtain more and have a higher probability, Cao Ang accumulated 1.1 million points of negative energy at one time and performed a stud in the past few days.

The results were quite satisfactory. Nine times, 100 tons of copper veins were drawn, and the other two were 100 tons of sweet potatoes and 100 tons of potatoes.

This time, there are finally two standard high-yielding crops for time travellers.

However, although one hundred tons of sweet potatoes and one hundred tons of potatoes seem to be a lot, they can only be planted on a few thousand acres as seed potatoes. If we want to popularize them so that the world will no longer be short of food, it will take at least several years of continuous cultivation. Repeat planting.

And with enough copper, you can directly mint money and buy grain and supplies directly from the people of the world.

This time, the 900 tons of copper ore, plus the initial 100 tons, is a thousand tons of copper ore, and the system produces high-purity copper ore, which can be used with almost no refining.

If this thousand tons of copper ore is cast according to the ratio of copper, seven and lead, two and one, it will produce a five-baht coin with a total weight of far more than one thousand tons.

Five baht is a unit of weight. Five baht is converted into grams, which is about 3.25 grams.

Some jerry-built five bahts may only have about one or two grams.

What Cao Ang cast must be a sufficient amount of money, and he even added some weight to make it about five grams.

Because Cao Ang added a few characters on top of the five baht, some weight needs to be added to ensure the stability after engraving.

Based on the calculation of five grams per coin, one kilogram is two hundred coins, and one ton and two thousand kilograms is four hundred thousand coins.

One thousand tons is 400 million yuan!

What's more, copper is one thousand tons, and if you add lead and other proportions, you can finally make about 500 million coins!

Wu���Compared with the circulation of the entire world, money may not be much, but it is not small either.

If it were a family or a force's wealth, it would be rich enough to be able to do a lot of things.

Cao Ang's cheap grandfather, Cao Song, was the adopted son of a eunuch. When Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was selling his official position, he wanted to buy the position of Taiwei to gild his fortune.

The Taiwei, the head of the three princes, could normally be bought for 30 million to 50 million. However, because Cao Song had a disgraceful background, he just spent 100 million and became a Taiwei for a period of time.[]

The fourth and third princes of Yuan Shao have always been proud of themselves.

Cao Song bought this kind of pride for a period of time with 100 million yuan.

It can be seen that the purchasing power of 100 million yuan is also very considerable.

Therefore, the current batch of copper in Cao Ang's hands can be used to make about 500 million plus five baht coins. It can be said that 810 is as rich as the enemy's country!

If it is minted according to the normal 3-gram five-baht coin, it can even be minted nearly one billion!

It's just that Cao Ang didn't take a fancy to those benefits. Casting more money and less money didn't hurt Cao Ang.

As long as he has more money than other princes and is better than other princes, it is enough.

Cao Ang's five baht increase was certainly not a good deed.

In order to distinguish it from the money cast by other people and times, Cao Ang ordered the craftsmen to engrave the four characters"Jian'an Five Baht" on the front when making the money model (money casting template).

Taking the Jian'an reign number of the current emperor Liu Xie as a record is like a certain Tongbao in later generations.

This is not the most important thing. After all, anyone can cast the Jian'an Five Baht reign name as long as they recognize the Han Dynasty.

What's important is that on the other side of the Jian'an Five Baht, there are four big characters: Chariot Cao Zhu!

Chariot Cao refers to Cao Ang, the chariot general!

Now that he has minted this weighted version of Conscience Five Baht, how can Cao Ang take advantage of others?

With these big characters on the front and back, as soon as the money comes out, everyone will know that it was cast by Cao Ang, the cavalry general!

Previously, when the world was short of money, Dong Zhuo cast small coins without characters, which were regarded as bad money.

There are also people who trim the edges of normal five baht and cast the cut copper into new coins to make a profit.

I don’t know how many people in the world have suffered because of this.

But with the conscientious five baht minted by Cao Ang, people in the world will naturally reject those five baht that cut corners and coins that are worth ten to a hundred.

Even if the people under the rule of other princes want to exchange some food, cloth, silk and other materials for money, they will give priority to Cao Ang's five baht!

As for other princes who want to make a mistake, secretly mint cut-rate money, and then mark it with Cao Ang's mark, fish in troubled waters, and slander Cao Ang's reputation?

Cao Ang will also have countermeasures to prevent him from losing the rice!

"The money minted by the young master is really conscientious.

This weight is so substantial that it may cost seven or eight baht. It should be more appropriately called eight baht money.

It's really a bit of a loss to call him five baht.……"

At this moment, Chen Deng, who was present, also grabbed a beautiful new coin, weighed it, and sighed.

Cao Ang smiled:"It doesn't matter, it's just because I just minted new money, and I was afraid that people in the world would not be used to it, so I named it five baht coins.

When everyone in the world knows about the hard money I, Cao Ang, made, then I will change the name to eight baht coins." , it’s not too late……"

Cao Ang actually didn't finish what he said. By then, I'm afraid it will be called Wei Tongbao, with Cao Ang's reign name added on the back...

Hearing this, Chen Deng immediately laughed and said:"I'm afraid that the people will not call it eight baht coins by then. You will ask Cao Lang for money!"

In this era, Lang Duo described men as beautiful, dignified, respected, and noble. Just like Zhou Yu was called Mei Zhoulang, Cao Ang is now called Cao Lang by many good people.

According to the habits of the world, most people will call Cao Langqian Shunkou.

From now on, people in the world will only know Cao Lang's money!

Just when Cao Ang inspected the newly minted five baht and asked the craftsmen to go back and cast a large number of them according to the template, the Qianli Falcon suddenly flew back and brought Cao Cao's reply.

After reading the reply, Cao Ang suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, and hurriedly asked someone to recover the money-casting craftsman.……
