Spring 192.
Cao Cao formed a troop and appointed Xu Zhen as the commander of the army. Xu Zhen was appointed as an important member of the army and was in charge of the affairs of the army in Yanzhou.
Set up an army from Qingzhou soldiers, a total of 4,000 people, under Xu Zhen and Zhao Yun.
By now, the local people had obtained a new method of farming. They knew that the main method was to enfeoff the land, contract it, and be responsible for their own profits and losses.
The citizens of Yanzhou were boiling.
Any registered family that obtained land did not need to be a tenant, so they were naturally taken care of. Furthermore, those who had strong men in the Qing Zhou army camp could also receive help from the army camp.
As a result, even if they had to hand over 60% of their harvest, they were still willing to farm. As such, the atmosphere became more and more intense. In the end, from February to April, the security was extremely good.
There was almost no chaos. The remnants of Qingxu and Huangjin spread word of mouth that the current Yanzhou Mu was a clean official in recent decades.
There were also people who said that the garrison commandant did not have the airs of an official and often brought soldiers to the fields to cultivate.
At this moment, even the Governor of Chen Liu, Zhang Miao, had received a lot of praise.
When Zhang Miao learned of this praise, he was extremely excited.
Back then, he had spent a lot of effort to get the title of Eight Chefs. He did not expect that a spring plowing would bring him so much profit.
At this point, Zhang Miao came to the government office to thank Cao Cao.
"Meng De! "Aiyo, my Prefecture Overseer actually gave me quite a reputation because of this. I'm really flattered." Zhang Miao was slightly plump. He wore a black robe and had an imposing aura. His eight-character goatee made him look quite dignified.
However, his eyes were round and gave off a simple and honest feeling.
He walked closer to Cao Cao with small steps, and his words of gratitude were not stingy.
Cao Cao raised his head and laughed.
"Meng Zhuo, you must have heard the rumors in the territory recently! Such a grand occasion of spring plowing was rarely seen in the past decade!”
"If there isn't a drought this year, the harvest should be good!”
Zhang Miao grabbed Cao Cao's hand, his joy was evident in his words, he couldn't help but say: "Now that I've retired and become the prefect under your command, I didn't expect my reputation to be even greater than before. I don't know how to be grateful!”
"This is not my plan, but Xu Zhen's.”Cao Cao patted the back of his hand.
"Bowen!"
Cao Cao called out proudly. Xu Zhen, who was third on the left, stood up and bowed deeply to Zhang Miao.
"Eh? Xu Zhen, isn't this that-"
Zhang Miao wanted to say that it was the warrior who saved his father, but he couldn't remember that Xu Zhen was ranked second from the bottom on the Heaven Ranking of Counselors.
However, it was somewhat disrespectful to mention the assassination attempt on Old Master Cao at this time.
Hence, she stopped.
He turned his head carefully to look at Xu Zhen and saw that his ponytail was casual. He did not wear a scarf or a crown. His black robe was a wide-sleeved robe and the jade belt around his waist was extremely noble.
He had a noble aura and couldn't help but feel happy.
"Xu Zhen…what a good name. He's able to give the hundreds of thousands of people in Yanzhou a place to live.”
"Your contribution is indispensable."
He said that he had contributed a lot, but it was actually from the bottom of his heart.
Back then, when Cao Mengde had taken in 300,000 Moth Bandits, he had felt uneasy. He had felt that Cao Mengde was going to suck his blood again to raise his army.
In the end, he was slapped in the face.
Not only did they not continue to ask for money and grain, but they even gave them a reputation. Most importantly, looking at the grain planted everywhere in Yanzhou, it was likely that this year's autumn harvest would be a great harvest!
If he could make achievements in the first year, this young man would be limitless.
Xu Zhen…
Was there such a person?
Zhang Miao had an idea. He planned to go back and communicate with the Heaven Ranking of Counselors in the dead of night to see if Xu Zhen's name was on it.
"Greetings, Lord Prefect."
Xu Zhen slowly came forward and bowed deeply.""I am only doing my part. It is mainly because of the good leadership of the lords.”
F * ck!
Zhang Miao's heart instantly warmed. For some reason, it felt so comfortable to talk like this.
Not only was this strategist talented, but he also spoke so nicely and was handsome.
He's really talented.
"Mister, Meng De will definitely reward you for such a great service. Hmm…but I also want to thank you personally. If Mister needs anything, I will try my best to find it for you.”
"Eh?"
Xu Zhen was suddenly surprised. Then, he suddenly thought of something and raised his head in surprise." Mayor, it's Zhang Miao, Zhang Mengzhuo, right?"”
"That's right."
What? Don't you know me? It was ridiculous! I thought you were being so respectful to me because you knew my reputation!
So you're pretending to be nice to me?
"In that case, can you please give me five people to be my guards? I'll go to your camp to choose.”
"This, is that all?" Zhang Miao blinked, not understanding what Xu Zhen meant.
This was too simple. It wasn't even a request.
"Yes, that's it."
"Alright, just choose as much as you can.”
"Thank you, Mayor!"
Xu Zhen bowed deeply, feeling happy in his heart.
It was now the third year of Chuping, if he remembered correctly.
Dian Wei was in his tent!
Moreover, he was completely unknown.
