Actually, it wasn't just Zhuo County!
After the news of Liu Xuan distributing food to the people of Zhuo County spread, the mayors of Shanggu County, Youbei County, and Yuyang County rushed over to find Liu Xuan.
One by one, they began to cry in front of Liu Xuan. They said that the granaries in the county were about to be emptied and that the commoners were homeless. They did not have enough to eat or sleep. They hoped that Liu Xuan would be kind and help them.
Regarding this.
Liu Xuan readily agreed.
Everyone was overjoyed.
Even if they didn't come looking for him, Liu Xuan was already secretly plotting this matter.
People's hearts and prestige!
He wanted to win the hearts of the people in Youzhou Province as much as possible before Liu Hong deposed Shi Limu and improve his reputation in Youzhou Province as much as possible.
In this way.
After he became the Prefecture Overseer of Youzhou, the decrees he issued would be easily accepted and executed by the people.
When Liu Yu found out about this, he looked for Liu Xuan with an embarrassed expression. He secretly hoped that Liu Xuan could distribute food to the people of Guangyang County.
Liu Xuan also gladly agreed.
Liu Yu was so happy that she danced around.
Shanggu County, Zhuo County, Guangyang County, Yuyang County, and Youbeiping County had a total population of about one million.
If each person was given 50 catties of grain, that would be 50 million catties of grain.
50 million sounded like a huge number.
However, if it was converted to stones, it would only be about 410,000 stones.
410,000 stones was indeed not affordable for the officials of these counties, but it was a drop in the ocean for Liu Xuan.
One had to know.
After four years of development, Dai County's granary currently stored more than 40 million dan of grain.
Although most of the 40 million dans of grain were potatoes and the types of grain were relatively simple, it was already good enough for the people of this era to be able to eat their fill. Why would they care so much?
Other than that.
These few counties also established their own Construction Divisions and recruited commoners to begin the basic construction of their counties.
Building roads, expanding cities, rebuilding city walls, and so on…
From the looks of it, the progress was pretty good.
Because…
Liu Xuandu sent 2,000 skilled workers to the Construction Division of each prefecture.
Under the leadership of these 2,000 people.
When the other provinces were in a stalemate, Youzhou Province launched a vigorous infrastructure construction.
……
Si Li County, Luoyang.
In the Imperial Palace.
In the morning court.
"Trash! Trash! Trash! You're all a bunch of trash!"
Liu Hong's furious roar resounded throughout the entire court assembly hall.
He had not heard any good news since the Yellow Turban rebellion in February!
It was either some county that was captured by the Yellow Turban bandits, or the rebel army that suppressed the rebellion was beaten back by the Yellow Turban bandits.
Liu Hong could still tolerate the above.
However, the battle report that came today made him really unable to endure it.
Mid-April.
Three days ago.
The rebel army led by Zhu Rong had been defeated by the 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers led by Yellow Turban Marshal Bo Cai and had no choice but to retreat. At present, they were surrounded by Bo Cai and another Yellow Turban Marshal, together with Huangfu Song, and a total of 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers.
On the same day.
The rebel army led by Zhao Qian, the prefect of Shaoling, was defeated by the Runan Yellow Turban Army, and Shaoling fell.
Chu Gong, the governor of Nanyang, was killed by Zhang Mancheng, the commander of the Yellow Turban Canal, and Nanyang fell.
In just a short day, so many major events had happened!
Moreover, these major events were all caused by the Imperial Court's failure.
How could Liu Hong not be angry?
For a moment.
The entire court was silent.
At this moment.
"Report-!"
A loud and anxious shout came from outside the court.
Immediately after.
A soldier rushed in and shouted at Liu Hong,""Your Majesty, urgent report from Youzhou!"
"Urgent report, urgent report again!"
Before the soldier could finish, Liu Hong interrupted him with a roar.
"Don't tell me that I, a great man, can't deal with those Yellow Turban rebels?”
"What are the provincial governors of Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Yu, as well as the county governors and prefects of various places doing!”
"Does the Imperial Court only raise a bunch of trash?”
"Zhen doesn't want to hear the news of defeat. Zhen wants to hear good news. Do you understand?”
"…(Omit a thousand cursing words here)…"
After a round of scolding.
Gradually, the anger in Liu Hong's heart calmed down.
He glanced at the soldiers kneeling below.
"Sigh…"
He sighed helplessly and said,""Speak! What happened in Youzhou Province?"
"Your, Your Majesty, you, you have won a great victory!”The soldier carefully said.
"Boom!"
"I knew it!"
Liu Hong slammed the chopping board and stood up. He roared out of habit,""We lost again! He lost again! What use do I have you? You can't even deal with a group of rebels…!!”
Liu Hong's angry roar stopped.
Immediately after.
He widened his eyes and looked at the soldier with excitement. He asked,"What did you just say? A great victory? A great victory in Youzhou!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The soldier nodded. Under everyone's bright gazes, he said," Youzhou Governor Liu Yu sent a battle report. In the middle of March, the Yellow Turban General Cheng Zhiyuan led 50,000 troops to attack Youzhou. Fortunately, the county governor Liu Xuan stepped forward and captured the bandits and the leader. He killed the rebel general Deng Mao and the rebel leader Cheng Zhiyuan one after another, leaving the 50,000 Yellow Turban bandits without a leader. Later, he personally led 1,000 cavalry to kill the 50,000 Yellow Turban bandits, capturing 6,000 and killing 10,000. Youzhou is now in danger!”
