"Seven at once?"
Guo Yun looked at Xu Chu with wide eyes. She did not expect Boss Cao to love his employees so much.
However, thinking about it, one could foresee how poor the population was.
The ratio of men to women was severely imbalanced.
Xu Chu was a rough man who did not understand the love between men and women.
The reason why he was depressed was that he felt that his position in Cao Cao's heart was gradually declining.
As Yuan Shao's army pressed down on the border, all the civil officials and generals had their own duties.
Cao Cao actually wanted him to get married quickly. Wasn't this mocking him?
"Isn't that how it is?"
"Everyone is preparing for Yuan Shao to go south, but what about me?" Xu Chu wondered.”
"Sigh, let's not talk about it."
Xu Chu had a loveless expression on his face.
He couldn't be blamed for this. He had always been Cao Cao's love, and his status could be said to have surpassed all the civil and military officials.
But now, he suddenly felt as if he had lost favor with a harem beauty who had been thrown into the cold palace.
I'm a mighty general, and you want me to be a pig?
Wasn't this too much?
"Old Xu, it's precisely because you're powerful that the lord hopes to quickly carry on the family line. Think about it, only the descendants of a fierce general like you have a better chance of becoming a fierce general, right?”
Guo Yun thought for a moment and said,"Moreover, the lord should be troubled by the population problem now. As the number one fierce general under the lord, you naturally have to set an example.”
Xu Chu was stunned when he heard Guo Yun's words.
"Really?"
"Of course, this can directly show how important your position in the lord's heart is!”
"Old Xu, think about it. How much credit did I have when I defeated Xu Prefecture?" Guo Yun said righteously. However, the lord only bestowed me with two madams, while you have seven at once. Can't you see the difference?”
Xu Chu,"Delta (0 × 0)."||| )︴”
Boom!
Guo Yun's words were like a clap of thunder that exploded in Xu Chu's mind.
He was instantly shocked!
Unexpectedly!
Was that what happened?
My status is higher than Brother Guo?
Guo Yun looked at Xu Chu's ever-changing expression and chuckled."As the saying goes, it is easy to obtain a thousand troops, but difficult to obtain a general. My lord is planning for the future. Can Yuan Shao stop my lord from unifying the world?”
"Of course not."
Xu Chu replied without thinking," After defeating Yuan Shao, we can send our troops south. Liu Zhang, Liu Biao, and the others are useless. We don't need any descendants to fight. We'll unify the world in ten years at most."”
"Old Xu, you're too narrow-minded.”
"This is the Han Dynasty ruling the world. What about the Xianbei? Where's Qiang Hu?"
Guo Yun had considered this question before.
In history, it was because of the continuous wars during the Three Kingdoms Era that caused the population to decrease drastically. In addition, the natural disasters in the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasties had severely slowed down the development of the population, which laid a fatal cause for the invasion of foreign enemies.
However, he couldn't consider this at the moment.
However, from Cao Cao's request for Xu Chu to marry more women, it could be seen that Boss Cao actually had plans in this regard.
After all, the development of Jiangdong plows and corn had greatly increased the grain harvest.
In this era, the population was the core of the army, and food was the guarantee of the population.
Xu Chu was stunned when he heard that." Those foreign girls are smelly. I don't want them."”
Guo Yun was speechless.
Wait, where did our chat go?
What happened to conquering the world?
How did she become an exotic girl?
Don't you know that your car is about to enter the highway?
"You don't believe me?"
Xu Chu looked at Guo Yun's dumbfounded expression and whispered,"When we defeated the Western Liang army, we captured a few foreign girls. Do you know what the Lord said?”
" What?!"
"It's delicious! Strong enough!"
Guo Yun was speechless.
Zhao Yun was speechless.
" Let's not talk about it anymore. After listening to my brother's words, I completely understand. Marrying a wife is for the lord, for the country…Come, come, let's drink, let's drink…"
Guo Yun couldn't help but laugh.
Xu Chu's heart was really big.
While the three of them were drinking happily, Cao Pi arrived with a carriage of takeout.
"Ziheng? Why are you here again?"
Xu Chu put down the wine pot. He was a little puzzled. This kid had been coming here a little frequently recently."Are you determined to train in the military camp?”
Cao Pi smiled brightly." Uncle Xu, don't laugh at Ziheng. How can I enter the military camp with my body? Don't I want to learn some strategies to defeat the enemy from my future brother-in-law?"”
"Alright, you guys chat. I'll go to the military camp for a walk.”
Xu Chu replied casually and pulled Zhao Yun out of the camp.
Out of Boss Cao's three sons, Cao Pi was the only one he liked.
Cao Zhang might be born with great strength, but he was unruly and unruly in his bones, and Xu Chu did not like him.
"I say, second brother, what kind of difficult illness did you encounter this time?”
Guo Yun invited Cao Pi to sit down and teased him.
From Cao Pi's attitude, he could roughly guess that his brother-in-law had already developed thoughts about the future throne.
According to the course of history, Cao Pi would be the one to succeed the throne. Guo Yun did not mind giving him a hand and building a good relationship with him in advance.
After all, he was only eighteen this year, while Boss Cao was already forty-four years old.
"It's like this…"
Cao Pi explained his problem in detail.
Just as Guo Yun had thought, there was a huge problem with recruiting soldiers.
The total number of new soldiers in the three provinces and six regions did not exceed 100, and most of them were men over the age of 25. Even some men in their thirties wanted to make a living.
Not only would this not increase their combat strength, but it would even drag down the army.
"It's necessary to promote childbirth, but it can't solve the urgent problem.”
"Needless to say, this method was thought of by Xun Yu." Guo Yun raised his eyebrows. Xun Yu is looking at the long term, but he can't get immediate results. Let me tell you, if you want to change this situation as soon as possible, the best way is to poach people!”
"Poach people?"
