After subduing Guan Hai, things had just begun.
Once a problem was solved, many other problems would follow. However, more problems would follow.
The Yellow Turban army was in disarray. Not only were their clothes and armor mottled, but their weapons were also varied. There were knives, spears, wooden sticks, hoes, and other random objects.
The same was true for the personnel allocation. The old, weak, sick, and disabled were mixed with the young and middle-aged, and their combat strength was mixed.
However, if they were carefully reorganized, selected elites, and reorganized, they could easily obtain a very powerful force.
Of course, he still had to appease them first. At the same time, he had to do a population count, food and accommodation, and a series of other tedious matters.
Liu Bei did not have any rules regarding this, but in his opinion, Xia Cheng could handle it well.
Moreover, Xia Cheng was originally the person who was sent to persuade Guan Hai. It was best for him to settle these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.
Hence, with a wave of his hand, he handed over full authority to Xia Cheng. He was only responsible for cooperating with him.
Under Xia Cheng's suggestion, they first opened a porridge stall.
It was not only to subdue the morale of these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, but also to express goodwill and give them hope!
Reality proved that this move was indeed effective.
For these hungry Yellow Turbans, nothing could make them feel more at ease than food.
Although they did not know what kind of fate awaited them in the future.
But now, at least he had a meal to eat. It was better to live than to die.
That was because, while some people had nothing to do with their family, and had no relatives or concerns, most people had to take care of their families.
Of course, although Liu Bei's food was still considered sufficient, it was impossible for 50,000 people to eat freely, so he could only give them gruel first.
Xia Cheng also arranged for the soldiers to dig up edible wild vegetables to make soup for everyone to fill their stomachs.
Even so, these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were grateful because they had once again mustered up the courage to live on tomorrow.
After the 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers received their food, Liu Bei personally appeared and gave them a speech to appease them. He expressed that as long as they behaved themselves, they could become the subjects of the Great Han Dynasty.
Xia Cheng and Liu Bei's combined fist technique immediately convinced the Yellow Turban Army led by Guan Hai. Many of these soldiers who had just surrendered had become his loyal fans.
Perhaps some people would find it strange. Since these Yellow Turban soldiers were already surrendered soldiers, they could just take them in. Why did they have to go through so much trouble?
This was related to the loyalty of the soldiers.
The loyalty of those who were directly recruited would definitely not be too high.
If they encountered a tough battle and could not win for a long time, these people might run away like deserters in order to save their lives. They were completely unreliable.
Liu Bei and the others had won over the hearts of the people.
Such soldiers would have a high degree of loyalty.
When a general was fighting, they would become fearless because of their loyalty.
In this era of cold weapons, it was very important to have a group of soldiers who were not afraid of death.
On the battlefield, an elite could easily fight ten soldiers who did not have much fighting spirit.
"This is the boldness of a Great Lord."
Xia Cheng could not help but feel emotional when he saw Liu Bei's speech and the scene of him winning the hearts of the Yellow Turban soldiers.
Only when they were in close contact with each other would they be able to understand how powerful Liu Bei was in this aspect.
He knew how to make good use of people. He could gather people with different personalities, different interests, and different abilities through his own courage, and maintain harmony and work together.
The people of the later generations might only remember Liu Bei's benevolence, but his most powerful skill was actually his ability to control. This ability was something that even the Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick or Xia Cheng, who had transmigrated, did not have.
Perhaps some people were destined to achieve great things.
What was laughable was that many people in the later generations really believed the analysis of some experts called beasts. They thought that Liu Bei's emperor relied on crying. They said that he was a complete hypocrite. Other than pretending, he had nothing else.
However, he didn't know to use his brain to think about it. Those who could become the founding emperor were all talented and bold. Which one of them was incompetent?
Fu Gan said to him: leniency and benevolence, can get people to die for him.
Chen Deng's evaluation of him was that he was outstanding and had the strategy to dominate the world.
Yuan Shao commented on him: Hongya has faith, Xuzhou is happy to support him, sincerely admire him.
Sun Sheng, Jia Xu commented that he was a hero.
Even Cao Cao himself acknowledged the heroes of the world, only the envoy and Cao Cao.
The heroes of this era were full of praise for him.
The later generations of experts called him a beast, but each of them scrambled to express their own "judgments", analyzing Liu Bei as a hypocrite.
But if he wasn't a person of this era, how could he judge the heroes of that era?
As the saying goes, scholars die for those who know themselves, and women die for those who like themselves.
If Liu Bei wasn't so outstanding, how could the elites of this era be willing to be the vanguard?
At the very least, the Liu Bei in Xia Cheng's eyes was real and three-dimensional.
