Liu Bian and other ministers came to Taicang.
Taicang was located in the right corner of the north side of the Imperial City. The building was huge. After all, it was a place to store grain and grass. It was extremely standard for precautions such as damp and open fires.
The factory guards had already surrounded the surroundings, and the defense was tight. Under Liu Bian's instructions, Shen Lian personally went to open the door of Taicang.
With a creaking sound, the huge hall door opened. Liu Bian didn't even need to step in to see the empty Taicang!
It was so empty that even rats wouldn't come to visit!
This was the capital's granary, and it was empty, causing Liu Bian's expression to darken.
With such an empty space, let alone the future, how were they going to solve their food problem today?
How would the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the Eastern and Western Factories, and the Snowy Dragon Cavalry deal with the food for a total of more than a hundred thousand soldiers?
How was the capital's original Imperial Guards going to solve their food problem?
Should he let Liu Bian learn from Dong Zhuo and rob the rich? Or did he learn from Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, to sell official posts and titles?!
"Your Majesty, according to this lowly subject's investigations, Taicang originally had some grain reserves that could supply the capital for at least half a month. However, Dong Zhuo had moved them to the military base.”
Shen Lian looked at Liu Bian's gloomy face and explained,"
"During this period of time, Dong Zhuo allowed his subordinates to plunder the rich and commoners.
"However, as long as we surround the Western Liang cavalry and find the rations from their army, there shouldn't be too much of a problem in the short term!”
Liu Bian did not respond!
There shouldn't be too much of a problem in the short term? Wasn't that just half a month's worth of consumption?
No!
Before Liu Bian signed in the 100,000 Snow Dragon Cavalry, the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and the tens of thousands of soldiers from the East and West Factories, he could sustain half a month's worth of consumption!
However, with the addition of these 100,000 soldiers, it would take at most a few days!
Several days of consumption!
Then, Liu Bian would have to worry about the food crisis!
Even if they were to send the Snowy Dragon Cavalry to a place, not to mention the inconvenience of the ancient roads, even if they were to fight, they would still need food and supplies to stabilize the morale of the army!
How should all of this be resolved?
In fact, there was one thing that Liu Bian had not calculated. The Snowy Dragon Cavalry were the elite of the elite. The soldiers were all one general and two horses, or even three horses!
100,000 Snowy Dragon Cavalry was equivalent to 200,000 Ferghana Horses!
The amount of grain consumed was almost a sea of them!
The scene was deathly silent!
Liu Bian stood still, his face dark. The officials around him were also as quiet as cicadas in winter, not daring to say anything to anger the dragon!
"Your Majesty, this servant does have a plan that might be able to alleviate the problem of rations in a short period of time.”At this moment, Cao Zhengchun offered a flattering suggestion.
Liu Bian turned his head and looked over.
Many of the officials also looked at this harmless but powerful and ruthless Supervisor Cao!
"Your Majesty, the East Chamber has received news that many of the great clans in the capital have vast reserves of grain. Some of them were even rotting away. We can just confiscate the house." Cao Zhengchun said darkly.
The surrounding ministers instantly felt a little frightened!
Even if Liu Bian had defeated the Yuan and Yang Families, the ministers present were still part of the other aristocratic families!
This was the current state of the court at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
This was also the reason why when Emperor Ling of Han set up the Hongdu School to train his own scholars and officials to compete with the Imperial College controlled by the aristocratic families, it ended up with nothing!
Because all the officials in the court were aristocratic families, they would not allow Emperor Han Ling to shake their foundations and attack their social class!
If it was in the past, these ministers would probably impeach Cao Zhengchun to death.
However, facing the current Emperor of Han, Liu Bian, the surrounding ministers were speechless and did not dare to remonstrate for the sake of the family's interests!
Because the blood in Chong De Hall had not dried up yet!
Because they didn't want to follow in the footsteps of the Yuan Family!!
Because the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the East and West Factory Guards, as well as the Han Emperor Liu Bian's ruthlessness and ruthlessness, made these aristocratic families tremble in fear!!!
The entire place was silent, as quiet as a cicada in winter!
All eyes were on Liu Bian's face, but they couldn't see any clues or figure out the Holy Decree!
At this moment, Liu Bian made them feel that the Emperor's Heart was unpredictable and unpredictable!
In fact, Liu Bian was a little tempted!
He was very familiar with the routine of beating up the landlord and helping the poor!
If he really couldn't solve the problem of rations, he didn't mind killing a group of aristocratic families.
As for whether these ministers would grieve for the death of the hare and whether they would share a common enemy. Liu Bian believed that the 100,000 Snowy Dragon Cavalry would make them firmly believe that they would stand on the side of the imperial power.
This was also the reason why Liu Bian urgently needed a massacre to prove himself!
Not only would it shock the heroes of the world, but it would also shock the civil and military officials of the court and the aristocrats of the world!
Of course, this could only alleviate the urgent situation. Robbery could not happen again and again.
Liu Bian had to think of a way to solve the food crisis.
With this thought in mind, Liu Bian stepped into Taicang.
"Ding dong! Taicang Hall registration complete!"
"Ding dong! 100 million tons of sweet potatoes have been placed in the warehouse of Beimang Mountain!”
"Ding dong! 100 million tons of potatoes have been placed in the warehouse of Beimang Mountain!”
"Ding dong! 100 million tons of corn had been placed in the warehouse of Beimang Mountain!”
"Ding dong! 100 million tons of fertilizer had been placed in the warehouse of Beimang Mountain!”
"Ding dong! The information on the production method of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash fertilizer has been instilled into the host's mind!”
"Ding dong! [The information of the Curved Plow Forging Technique has been transferred into the host's mind!]”
"Ding dong! [The improved method of signing in to the waterwheel (tube-shaped cart) has been transferred into the host's mind!]”
"Ding dong! The information of the method of extracting refined salt has been transferred into the host's mind!”
"Ding dong…"
……
Liu Bian paused for a moment before a faint smile appeared on his face."Zhen has already thought of a countermeasure!"
Xun You and Xun Yu, who were about to offer advice to Liu Bian to prevent the aristocratic families from being slaughtered, were stunned. They looked at Liu Bian in confusion and suddenly felt a little worried about their gains and losses!
Could it be that…His Majesty was prepared to accept Cao Zhengchun's suggestion to raid the granaries of the aristocratic families?!
Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Rong looked at each other. In the end, Huangfu Song braced himself and asked,""Your Majesty, are we going to send troops to raid our homes?”
Cao Zhengchun was overjoyed and quickly pleaded,""Your Majesty! Let this old servant do it. This old servant is very familiar with the matter of seizing a house!”
The surrounding officials 'hearts thumped, and their expressions became somewhat uncertain!
Liu Bian chuckled. After solving the food crisis, his mood had improved a lot."What are you thinking about? I'm not going to raid the house. I have other countermeasures!”
"Ah? It's not a shakedown?" Cao Zhengchun was stunned and felt a little disappointed!
The surrounding officials were also shocked, but they could not help but sigh in relief. Following that, he became somewhat bewildered!
Not a shakedown? What kind of countermeasure was that?
The capital's military and food problems were measured in terms of a million people. This did not include the millions of people in circulation.
What solution does His Majesty have?!
Xun You and Xun Yu looked at each other. The uncle and nephew had made up their minds. No matter what His Majesty did, when they got home from work, they had to make the Xun family take the initiative to hand it over!
At this moment, the ministers were having their own thoughts. The White Tiger Protector of the Jinyiwei suddenly arrived and whispered something into Shen Lian's ear.
Shen Lian's expression changed. He did not dare to be negligent. He immediately approached Liu Bian and said,""Your Majesty, someone is robbing the execution ground!"
