Chapter 449 Reporting work [Chapter 2]

It was snowing heavily, and three thousand snowmen appeared in Jiyangting. Seeing the heavy horse hooves appearing in front of you, the fat man as if the stars were holding the moon was unhappy.

"snort!"

Listening to his cold snorting, the generals all showed bitterness. The middle-aged man hesitated on crutches in the crowd, but hesitated, but he still stepped forward and bowed his body lowered.

"Father, the child goes to welcome the tiger baby..."

"snort!"

Just when Dong Zhuo was dissatisfied and snorted coldly, three thousand and three heavy armored cavalry had already rumbling outside the pavilion. Who is the armored general in the lead who is not Dong Hu?

"snort!"

Although his head and face were covered with tightness, Dong Zhuo could see who was the first person to come at a glance, and snorted coldly again, as if he was very dissatisfied with Dong Hu who had not seen him for several years.

"Bang bang..."

The heavy sound of stepping on the snow came to Dong Zhuo. Dong Hu took off the mask on his face and solemnly knelt on one knee and gave a chest-beating salute.

"My nephew has met his uncle."

It seemed very dissatisfied. Dong Zhuo glared and bowed his head and counted breaths. Then he walked closer with a gloomy face. Lu Bu wanted to follow closely but was waved back by impatiently waving his arm.

"Dangdang..."

Dong Zhuo turned around Dong Hu who was kneeling on one knee twice, and knocked the horse whip in his hand at times, "dangdang" a few times on his helmet...

"I charged forward, but you kid earned benefits behind us. Not only did you swallow the three servants of Guanzhong and Hedong County, but you dare to swallow my troops?"

"We're going to beat you, are you convinced?"

Dong Hu lowered his head and said, "Just as we did, if we were replaced by others, it would be great if we didn't chop our heads down, and we wouldn't even let us be the Sili School Captain and hold Jinwu..."

"when."

Dong Zhuo raised his hand and knocked Dong Hu on the head again.

"Get up."

"promise!"

Dong Hu stood up and followed Dong Zhuo with his head down. Not to mention others, even Dong Min was a little weird and puzzled. Dong Zhuo snorted so much along the way. He was angry with what Dong Hu did in Guanzhong these days, but after meeting him, why... he didn't hurt or itch a few times?

The generals under Dong Zhuo and the brothers under Dong Hu were all puzzled. Dong Mao seemed to know why his father was like this, and he also smiled bitterly on his face...

"Thuwa, do you know about Hanoi County?"

"Um."

...

"The general died in a hundred battles, and the moment he put on his armor, he was already a dead person. There is no need for the eldest son to worry too much about Huang Shao's death. If he can fight to death three thousand Huns, Huang Shao is worth his death."

After a few breaths of silence, Dong Hu sighed and spoke. He helped Dong Mao into the pavilion. Dong Hu met with a group of generals again. He naturally knew Lu Bu, but he just nodded slightly and fisted, but was quite interested in Gao Shun, the general under Lu Bu.

Anyone who is familiar with "Three Kingdoms" knows that Gao Shun has a camp in his hand. Dong Hu has never seen it with his own eyes. I don't know if the camp is a heavy armored soldier. Some people in later generations have said this, and he is somewhat suspicious about this. In fact, the armored soldiers of the Han army are very high, which has a lot to do with the fact that the Han Dynasty was martial and lasted for hundreds of years. It cannot be simply determined that it is a heavy armored soldier based on the name of "Captained Camp". But at least it is the elite among the elites in the army, which is almost the same as the reserve soldiers of Dong Buyi from the army. It is an absolute elite who can be used on the blade at any time, but this is not important. What is important is that Gao Shun followed Lu Bu to death without saying a word.

The generals greeted each other and said some simple words without any pain. In front of so many people, some things were impossible even if they wanted to go deeper. When Dong Mao climbed onto the strange-tongued old donkey, he looked back at Gao Shun, who was not very sociable, and signaled Dong Hu to take a look.

"Interested in that Gao Shun?"

"Um."

Grilled

Dong Hu said "yes", then patted the old mule again, and said with a smile: "This mule is old, and we will send another one in a few days."

As he said that, Dong Hu looked back at Gao Shun and then said, "Gao Shun seems a little introverted and unsociable. Most of the generals with this kind of temperament are relatively calm, good at defending, and able to fight tough battles. The people of Liangzhou are prone to chaos. There are many brave and good at attacking, but few are good at defending."

Dong Mao nodded silently and shook his head and said, "Gao Shun is a general under Lu Bu's name. His father also loves Lu Bu very much. You probably don't have much chance."

"Haha..." Dong Hu smiled and said indifferently: "I am lucky to get it, but I am lucky to lose it. If the generals of the world are like crucian carp trees crossing the river, why should you and my brothers care too much?"

Hearing such words, Dong Mao couldn't help but smile. He was the chief general of Dongbu Yicong. He knew how many brave generals Dongbu Yicong had. There was no need to care too much about a general who could not be recruited. But he didn't know the regret in his brother's heart.

The lieutenant general of "Three Kingdoms" is not many generals who can make Dong Hu regret it. Dian Wei, Pang De, and Gao Shun are generals who make him sigh. However, as Dong Mao said, if Lu Bu is hostile to him, he can naturally try to win over Gao Shun. But if he comes into the same camp, although he is very clear about the character of "Lu Bu Buxian" in his heart and knows more clearly what Lu Bu will do, he also knows that Lu Bu is the "bone" head that Dong Zhuo bought bones for his daughter. For such an iconic character, the more hostile Dong Zhuo is, the more he needs to do it for outsiders to see.

Jiyangting is very close to Henan County, and Henan County is now almost the military camp of Dongbu Yicong. Hu San's Shanzi Camp, Dong Fu, Dong Gu, Dong Fang, and Zhang Liao's 20,000 elite cavalry, and Sun Niu's 15,000 Po military camps are all stationed in Henan County. As for the original residents in the city... they have long been run away by Dong Zhuo's 5,000 cavalry.

Sun Niu led a total of 30,000 infantrymen, half of which were his headquarters and the other half were Luoyang locals who wiped out the Yellow Turban Army. After several years of operation, he had already become Dong Zhuo's direct line.

Originally, he was a native of Luoyang. Dong Zhuo attached much more importance to the 15,000 Luoyang camp than the Han soldiers in the Eighth Camp in Xiyuan. Like Dong Zhuo's headquarters, he was directly stationed in Luoyang City by Xu Rong, Hu Zhen and Fan Chou.

As troops and horses entered Luoyang, Dong Zhuo's voice in the court became increasingly strong. Although he had not fully controlled the Shangshutai, it was only a matter of time. Anyone with discerning eyes could see this.

Like in Lintao, Dong Hu followed Dong Zhuo with a strangely sarcastic horse and mule, talking to Dong Mao about the miscellaneous things about Liangzhou and Chang'an, and finally got into the naughtyness of a few children. The two brothers burst into laughter from time to time, and from time to time, Dong Zhuo in the carriage would lift the curtain and look at the two brothers...

"The adoptive father, it is quite inappropriate for the Luoyang camp to be the generals and commanders." Lu Bu finally couldn't help but speak out his worries again.

Dong Zhuo waved his hand without caring, and said, "Since entering Luoyang, Luoyang Camp has not disturbed the people, violated military orders, and made trouble with no trouble. Even if we want to change the general, we can't do anything."

Lu Bu's eyes flashed, and in the end he was silently accompanied by the carriage.

A month ago, Dong Zhuo knew about Dong Hu's treatment of tens of thousands of Han soldiers in Meiyang. He almost fainted that day, but for some reason, although he would mutter a few words every day for a month, his anger was constantly decreasing. After Sun Niu brought 30,000 troops into the imperial capital, Dong Zhuo ignored Luoyang Camp and allowed Dong Buyi to fill the generals with 10,000 troops, which also made all the generals lose their eyes.

The soldiers were dispersed and reorganized, and the original generals were fine. They were all replaced by Dong Buyi's generals. This was obviously a seizure of power, but why was Dong Zhuo not angry?

I don't understand, I can't figure it out, but everyone knows it. It must be the laughing boy who said something they don't know.

With heavy snow, Dong Zhuo took the lead in entering the city. Dong Hu led the mule behind him, and the three thousand heavy armored cavalry who silently kicked the war horse...

Eat and drink, but honestly report to the leaders...

"... Liang's total of 200,000 troops were soldiered, but the three counties of Danhanshan in the south of the Moon, the grassland in the north of the Moon, Hetao, and the current Liangzhou cannot be mobilized. Taiyuan County has 20,000 troops in the farmland, Shangdang County and 20,000 troops in Henei County. These 50,000 troops are military farming soldiers, and there is a big gap between the training of the main soldiers and auxiliary soldiers. At most, the village soldiers are strong and the people can protect themselves, and it is not possible to mobilize the battle."

"Although Liang Bing has 200,000 soldiers, only the only one who can use is the 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers and horses in his nephew's personal military camp, all of which are in Henan County."

He briefly reported to Dong Zhuo about the situation in Liangbing, and Dong Hu held his fists very seriously.

"The three servants in Chang'an have 500,000 people. In terms of a household of five, there are 100,000 households in Chang'an, with a household of five. If one is too old and one is too young, there are only three young and strong people, three young and strong women, that is, there are only two people who can cultivate."

“How much land can a person cultivate?”

"Effectively cultivate ten to twenty acres of grain, that is, thirty to sixty stones of grain, taxing one to two stones, that is, 500,000 households in the Sanfu of Chang'an tax of 200,000 to 400,000 stones of grain. According to the 21 stone of grain required for each soldier, he can only support 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers..."

Speaking of this, Dong Hu smiled bitterly.

"My uncle knows more than our tiger kids. He knows that although the people have thirty taxes and one tax on land, they don't seem to have much tax, but they need to pay tuition, calculate taxes, and even taxes. They need to pay tenant rent to wealthy families and worship county marquis like their uncle. In this way, there is no way to increase taxes."

"Since the first year of Zhongping, more than 100,000 Liangzhou thieves have been eyeing the three servants in Guanzhong. The three servants in Guanzhong have always maintained more than 60,000 Han soldiers. However, the existing population of Guanzhong Sanfu can only support 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers, and it is not included in the officials of the 38 cities of Sanfu and the salary required by the yamen runners."

"Because Guanzhong is unable to support at least 60,000 soldiers, the price of grain in Guanzhong has risen to twice or three times in previous years. But my uncle also knew that this was impossible. More than 100,000 thieves in Liangzhou are always lying at the entrance and exit of the Weishui Road. Guanzhong must maintain so many soldiers and horses. My nephew has driven away Han Sui, Ma Teng and other thieves, so... my nephew is thinking of reducing the burden and resting with the people."

"There are only 200,000 people who can truly cultivate them, and there are 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers in Meiyang camp. In addition to paying taxes, the 200,000 people need to pay at least half of their income to pay tenant rent, worship to the princes, and support the belly of the family of five. Apart from that, the people actually don't have much left."

"Unlike the people who rent other people's fields, soldiers do not have to pay tenant rent to farm, and do not need to worship the princes. One soldier cultivates twenty acres of land, and 50,000 soldiers can cultivate one million mu, and can obtain three million stones of grain. The soldiers can raise 150,000 soldiers with twenty-one stones of grain a year."
