In this battle, Zhou Yu ended in a crushing defeat.

Cao Cao took the great Jingzhou at a very small cost of losing more than 100,000 Jingzhou troops in battle, and then collected 30,000 prisoners from Jiangdong, which can be described as a great victory.

Of course, the original number of prisoners was 70,000.

Just considering the wounded soldiers and some problems of old and young, all 40,000 prisoners were scattered to various counties in Jingzhou and served for three years.

In Cao Cao's view, three years is enough to calm the entire world.

For the captured generals, Cao Cao also showed a clear demeanor.

He did not kill a single person, but Zhang Hao was responsible for escorting him back to Xuchang and making plans again.

And other generals, basically rewarded for merit and deeds, and officials were promoted to one level.

The acting skills of Cai Yao and Xiahou Wei when they burned the Lianzhou were greatly appreciated by Cao Cao, and Xiahou Wei was directly promoted to the rank of general of Pingdong, and the official worshiped the third pin.

And Cai Yao also held the position of the governor of the Jingzhou Admiralty.

The next thing is to solve the problem of Jingzhou's internal affairs.

Xun Yu is not there, and this piece can only be temporarily coordinated by Yang Xiu.

Considering that there have been a lot of fighting in Jingzhou this year, the people are not living on the problem.

Guo Yun directly proposed to exempt Jingzhou from taxes for one year.

For this reason, Cao Cao almost exploded on the spot.

"Xuan Xian, do you know that the household registration in Jingzhou is full of 900,000 households, and each household pays taxes equivalent to half a tael of gold, and the tax paid by the entire Jingzhou in a year is more than 400,000 taels of gold, you let me pay taxes?"

Cao Cao blew his beard and glared, a little angry and corrupted: "Four hundred thousand taels, that's gold, not copper money!"

Guo Yun dared to mention this.

Change someone else, and still don't drag it out and pick dozens of military sticks ?!

All the Yipin masters add up to less than 400,000 taels in their lifetime, and you exempt me from it?!

"Lord, this Jingzhou is newly determined, and everything is in ruins!"

Guo Yun bitterly persuaded: "If you can't adopt some preferential policies, how can you calm the people's hearts, and what kind of chaos will be caused by the departure of the army?!"

"Is there another battle of Chibi?!"

"Then you have to burn eight million taels of gold again!"

Cao Cao: "(⊙ω⊙)"

Xun Yu: "O__O..."

Guo Jia: "(⊙o⊙)..."

Cheng Yu: "╮(╯_╰)╭"

Everyone: "..."

Burn the ship, burn the ship!

What gold to burn ?!

Now the deliberations are directly converted into gold?!

Then the loss of more than 100,000 people is not a soldier?!

Everyone trembled, and their eyes slowly looked at Cao Cao.

They did not dare to express any opinion on this.

Of course, Cao Cao also understood the truth.

But when it comes to the loss of a considerable amount of wealth, he cannot control his inner collapse.

Cao Cao took a deep breath and hesitated a little.

"Lord Lord!"

"Lord Jia Xujia asks for a meeting!"

A guard ran in.

Hearing this, Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he immediately showed joy and said, "Pass it quickly!"

Throw everything aside.

Lao Jia must have brought good news.

Not long after, Jia Xu, who had a turtle face, walked in and saluted Cao Cao: "Congratulations to the Lord for taking Jingzhou, the Yangtze River is determined, and the world is unified, just around the corner..."

"These high-sounding flattery are exempted. "

Cao Cao waved his hand, and in the past few days, his ears were almost hearing the flowers: "Tell me, how is Luoyang's gain?!"

"Equivalent to gold, about three million taels. "

Jia Xu took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Cao Cao: "Lord, when Zhang Liao and Li Dian pretended to be Western Liang troops to conquer Luoyang, several families responded to the Western Liang cavalry..."

"The subordinates had the audacity to uproot it just in case. "

Saying that, Jia Xu secretly glanced at Cao Cao, and saw that Cao Cao's face sank, and he snorted coldly: "Dare to respond to the Western Liang troops?

"Lord Xie is considerate. "

Jia Xu hurriedly thanked him, and then retreated to Guo Yun's side, and heard Xu Chu muttering, almost not scared Jia Xu half to death.

"Could it be a personal vendetta?!"

Jia Xu: "o((⊙_⊙))o."

Big brother, can you not make trouble?!

Jia Xu glanced at Xu Chu with a faint gaze, and saw that the latter was pondering very seriously, so he had to ask Guo Yun for help.

The villain Jia Xu is also doing dirty work in Yanzhou.

At this time, Guo Yun was still very humane, and said to Xu Chu: "Old Xu, is Lord Jia such a person?!"

"Huh?!"

Xu Chu muttered thoughtfully.

Jia Xu: "(‵o) convex"

I traveled thousands of miles to deliver heads, didn't I?!

Fortunately, Cao Cao did not care.

Even if Jia Xu really declared a personal vendetta, for the sake of these three million taels of gold, he Cao Cao would turn a blind eye.

Anyway, the family on the Luoyang side will not deal with him.

"Lord, even Luoyang still has a family plotting against him, I'm afraid there are more problems in this Jingzhou!"

Guo Yun took advantage of the situation to promote the situation: "If you can exempt from taxation, it will not only win the hearts of the people, but also let people of insight in Jingzhou feel the benevolence and righteousness of the Lord for the society and the people." "

"To put it bluntly, just for that Zhuge Liang, right?!"

How could Cao Cao not understand Guo Yun's thoughts, and after a moment of entanglement, he said, "Xuan Immortal, will you think too highly of this Zhuge Liang?!"

116's internal affairs!

Boss, do you think you're joking?!

How to say it?!

Guo Yun pondered a few times and analyzed carefully: "Master, let's say so." "

"In terms of intelligence, he does not lose to the eldest brother. "

"In terms of strategy, he does not lose to Xun Shangshu. "

"On internal affairs, it is far above Lord Xun. "

"As for the ability to see people's hearts, I'm afraid it is also above Lord Jia!"

“......"

This kind of description cannot be described as heavy.

Cao Cao also rarely saw Guo Yun describe a person so seriously and carefully consider it.

On the side, Jia Xu and others were upset.

"Does this Zhuge Liang really have such abilities?!"

Jia Xuhu looked at Guo Yun suspiciously, "If this is the case, how could the battle of Chibi be lost so miserably?!"

Hearing this, several great strategists also nodded.

Without waiting for Guo Yun to complain about Jia Xu, Xu Chu took the lead in glaring at him and said contemptuously: "Jia Wenhe, if you change your command to lose, believe it or not?!"

"Didn't you see that there are Xuan Immortals and Zhongkang under the lord?!"

"Even if we don't make a move, won't there be Guo Drunkard and Xun Gongda?!"

"Can it not win big?!"

Jia Xu: "Σ(⊙▽⊙?!"

This cannot be refuted.

Refuted, how many people have to be offended ?!

Jia Xuan was silent.

After thinking about it, Cao Cao made up his mind and said, "Okay, at the celebration banquet in three days, if this Zhuge Kongming can win Zhongkang, then Jingzhou will be exempted from paying taxes for one year, and another order will be passed down to celebrate Jingzhou's great determination, and other states will reduce their taxes for one year!"

Hearing this, everyone shouted wisdom.

Thirty percent of the tax basically offset the gold harvested by Luoyang, and this decision cannot be described as ruthless.

"After years of war, the people are indeed miserable. "

Cao Cao sighed several times: "It was because of economic difficulties before, and now, it is time to recuperate." "

Cao Cao's words made Guo Yun also feel very emotional.

After winning such a big victory, and taking Jingzhou, in exchange for someone else, I am afraid that I can't wait to raise the sword again, and quickly take Yizhou, Liangzhou and Yangzhou.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, chose to reduce the taxes of the states at this moment and recuperate.

This is the Wise Lord who truly cares for the people!

"Lord Wise!"

Guo Yun sincerely saluted Cao Cao and said, "Lord rest assured, this tax loss, Xuan Immortal will definitely find a way to make up for it!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao smiled and shook his head:

"Xuan Xian, don't worry too much. "

"Ling'er is also going to have a bar mitzvah. "

"Go back to Xuchang, the lord will preside over the wedding for you, and it will also fulfill your wish!"

Saying that, Cao Cao paused slightly: "This, can Xiao Qiao still grab it?!"

Guo Yun: "Σ(△|||) ︴"

Guo Jia: "O(∩_∩)O~~"

Xun Yu: "[]~( ̄▽ ̄)~*"

Jia Xu: "(-*)"

Xu Chu: "φ( ゚▽ ゚*)"

Boss, why haven't you forgotten this stubble?!
