The fact was just as Cao Ang expected.
Before the army arrived in Chengyang County, they encountered Xiahou Dun, who was leading two thousand troops and escorting countless carts of food.
Both sides meet.
The crisis was immediately resolved.
Not only did the Cao family's regular army increase in number, they were able to more effectively control prisoners.
At the same time these grains arrived.
It also ensures that no one will starve to death along the way.
The tens of thousands of surrendered troops accompanying the army saw their eyes shining brightly after seeing the carts of food. They became more and more honest and determined to follow General Cao.
After all, after the surrender.
For so many days in a row, they were able to eat hot food every day. Even if they were not full, it was much better than the hard days of running around with the Yellow Turban Army and not having the next meal.
Of course, this is not without its thorns.
The thugs and thugs who just wanted to gather a group of people, forcibly snatch the food, and then escape, have become fertilizer for the flowers and trees along the way.
It has made great contributions to Yanzhou’s green plant industry.
But after the vast majority of people firmly believed that they would continue to work with the Cao family, and after seeing the grain truck, they felt motivated.
The mental numbness is relieved.
The marching speed of the army finally increased, and the refugees no longer moved away bit by bit.
Plus Cao Ang is here these days.
Every day when he had nothing to do, he would bring a group of people and wander around in the team.
Pointing to the grain carts filled with grain.
Various painted cakes.
“When you arrive at your destination, you won’t have to worry about food and drink.”
"Follow me, you will marry a wife and have children in one year, buy land in three years, and your family will be prosperous in ten years!"
"There are so many fields in Yanzhou that no one is cultivating them. I plan to allocate fields to those who perform well."
Words like this.
Cao Ang can change his style every day and speak ten sentences without repeating the same thing.
Inspired by this spirit.
Can the army still move like flying?
The second half of the journey, which originally took more than ten days, was reduced by more than half.
On the sixth day, we arrived in Dingtao County.
…………
Jiyin County Prefect’s Mansion.
Cao Ang leaned on the soft cushion with his hands and feet, and collapsed there without any image. He was not at all as elegant as he had shown when he entered the city.
"Squeak~"
There was the sound of the door being pushed open.
Cao Cao stepped in.
When he saw his son looking like this, he quickly closed the door and then laughed out loud.
He was used to seeing Cao Ang's maturity that was far beyond ordinary people. He always had pearls of wisdom in his grasp and had everything in mind, as if nothing could be kept in his mind.
Hence the current scene.
It really made him laugh a little.
"My son, could it be that you are a little tired from going to the city for the rites and music that your father arranged for you earlier?"
When Cao Ang led his army to Dingtao County.
Cao Cao directly led the crowd to greet him outside the city, and arranged many rituals and music along the way, and even people lined the streets to welcome him.
However, it is not clear whether these common people spontaneously gathered pots of milk to welcome the king's master, or whether they were ordered by the government and forced to come.
In short, Cao Ang received a warm welcome.
Lao Cao gave him a very high honor.
…
And after hearing what my father said.
Cao Ang turned over on the spot and still collapsed on the ground, but now he was facing Cao Cao.
The whole person said lazily.
"Father, my son has led thousands of people and fought fiercely with tens of thousands of enemy troops for many days. The string in his mind has been tense. He is so nervous that he doesn't dare to slack off at all. Not to mention how uncomfortable it is. .”
"It's just that in front of the generals of the three armed forces, as the commander of the army, I must maintain my dignity, so I dare not reveal the slightest clue."
"Only in this small cabin of yours, when father and son are here, can I relax a little and lie down comfortably here."
The words just fell.
The smile on Cao Cao's face faded instantly.
It gets a little more complicated.
The uncontrollable expression in his eyes showed his distress for Cao Ang and his concern for his son as a father.
yes!
No matter how mature and calm Zixiu behaves on weekdays, he is still a young man after all.
This time, I led my troops to the front line. Facing an enemy with more than ten times our own strength, I kept thinking about strategies day and night, and was under tremendous pressure all the time.
Carrying the heavy responsibility of strengthening the Cao family's foundation on his shoulders, he gritted his teeth and did not dare to show any flaws.
This burden is really too much!
Cao Cao was filled with emotion for a while.
He couldn't help but take a few steps forward, sat down next to Cao Ang, and then patted Cao Ang's shoulder with his hand.
"Ang'er, thank you for your hard work!"
…
After a moment of silence in the room.
Cao Ang finally recovered from his slack posture, turned over, and sat cross-legged next to Cao Cao.
Then he pointed outside with his finger.
"Father, have you properly arranged the Yellow Turban soldiers who surrendered to our army?"
I heard about serious business.
Cao Cao's expression suddenly became serious and he nodded solemnly.
"Don't worry, my son, this matter happens to be what my father is good at. Tens of thousands of people have already been placed in multiple places. We only need to wait for the next few days to properly deal with them one by one."
Speaking of which.
Cao Cao turned around and asked.
"Ang'er, do you have any plans for these young men who have been escorted back?"
Such a large team is involved.
How to arrange it must be discussed with several counselors, but Cao Cao still wants to hear Cao Ang's opinion as a reference.
And Cao Ang heard this.
He took a blank bamboo slip from the table beside him and spread it out in front of him.
While holding a brush, he wrote on it.
While describing it to Cao Cao.
…
"Father, according to the child's idea, this group of people should be divided into three parts."
"Those who are the strongest, strongest, and have spent the longest time in the army, we will directly integrate them into our own army."
"This group of people should not be too large. The number should be controlled within 10,000. After all, there are only about this number of people who meet the requirements. If there are more people, we cannot afford to support them."
Cao Cao nodded slightly.
There is no doubt about this.
In troubled times, the military is the priority.
After obtaining an effective force, the best parts of it must be selected first to supplement the force and expand the Cao family's combat power.
To be continued...
