Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 439: Countermeasures

"After Wei Gong returned, he posted a notice saying that when buying rice grain from the people of Bingzhou, the price must be fair, and the people should not be forced. All businessmen who secretly raised the price of grain should be arrested. Merchants sell rice grains to other prefectures and counties." Lv Bu said, merchants seek profit, and at such times, they can't guarantee that they will not make desperate things, hoarding rice grains and raising the price of grains are also their usual tactics.

"My lord, if the salaries of the lieutenant generals and soldiers are stopped and the three meals are replaced by two meals, I am afraid that the soldiers will be dissatisfied." Guo Jia worried.

Lu Bu nodded slightly, how could he not know about this, but he has confidence in Jinyang's army, no matter whether it succeeds or not, he has to try it.

After making some rough arrangements, Lu Bu rushed to the army. After the generals in the army received the order, they had already gathered.

Lu Bu slowly walked up to the high platform and glanced around at everyone. Those who can gather here are at least military lords and above.

"Many of you are ordinary people. Step by step, you have reached this point through your own efforts. This Marquis is very pleased, but now Bingzhou is at a critical moment." Lu Bulang said.

The generals in the army were puzzled. They didn't get the news of the war. Besides, when faced with the war, why did the Bingzhou army ever fear others? Except when the Xianbei invaded the border, the Jizhou army attacked Huguan, and Bingzhou was in danger. Could it be the Xianbei people? Making a comeback? Or did the Jizhou army attack Hanoi?

"What this lord said was not a war. Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, and Sili suffered a severe drought and locust plague. Many people had no crops and had nowhere to go. They went to Bingzhou one after another. They entered Bingzhou?"

From the eyes of the generals, Lu Bu had already obtained the answer. Many of them were ordinary people and had deep feelings for ordinary people. It was Bingzhou's generosity towards the people that made them feel at ease every time they fought. They knew that even if they died on the battlefield, the Marquis of Jin would not treat their families badly, and even if they were injured, they would not worry about life when they returned to Bingzhou.

"Benhou's decision is to let the people enter Bingzhou." Lu Bu said firmly.

The following generals heard the words and shouted in unison: "The general is mighty, the general is mighty!"

Lu Bu stretched out his hand to stop the commotion below, "But Bingzhou is short of money and food, but there are 30,000 refugees outside Huguan, and more refugees will come. From now on, the salaries of lieutenants and generals will be temporarily suspended, and soldiers will have three meals a day. , temporarily changed to two meals, the salary of the officials in the city is halved, and the generals who have opinions take a step forward."

Most of the generals stood still, they just turned their attention to Lu Bu.

Some generals were talking in a low voice, and their expressions were naturally a little dissatisfied. Not only did they lose their military salaries, but they even had to deduct their meals. After returning, it was not easy to explain to their soldiers.

"This Marquis knows the concerns of many soldiers. This is also a critical moment in Bingzhou. After Bingzhou is stabilized, all the unpaid military salaries will be made up. I hope that you can give the soldiers a good explanation after you go back. If you have any questions, feel free to When I go to the prefecture and shepherd's house, this marquis will handle it personally." Lv Bu said.

The generals who had doubts were relieved to face Lu Bu's words. In their minds, the Marquis of Jin had always kept his word. Frying the pot, deducting military pay, but a taboo in the military, only the Marquis of Jin has such courage.

"If you have no objection, this matter will be settled for the time being, and the people outside Huguan will thank you." Lu Bu bowed deeply.

The generals in the field hurriedly returned the salute. Some of them even had red eyes. Some of them followed Lv Bu from Luoyang to Bingzhou. They had a deeper understanding of the difficulties of the people in the troubled times. If it wasn't for Lu Bu's attack on Dong Zhuo, they would have barely arrived. After Chang'an, I'm afraid there will be no way to survive. They still know what the situation of the people of Chang'an is now. From time to time, there will be people who flee from Chang'an to Bingzhou.

Today's Chang'an can be said to be in trouble for the people, and what Lu Bu did for the people strengthened their determination to follow Lu Bu.

After Lu Bu left, the generals in the army also talked a lot, and this incident had a great impact on them.

"General Zhao, what's wrong with you?"

General Zhao said with red eyes: "You are from Bingzhou, so naturally you don't understand the difficulties of those people. At the beginning, they were rescued by the Marquis of Jin. On the way, the people had no food. At that time, the Marquis of Jin ordered the soldiers in the army to send the food to the people. Three ingredients are given to the common people. Although each commoner only has a few mouthfuls, they are very satisfied. More people rely on the bark and grass roots along the way to feed their hunger. Every time they go to a place, the bark and grass roots are the most precious. Finally, under the leadership of the Marquis of Jin, they arrived in Bingzhou, and the refugees outside Huguan now remind me of the past."

Many generals fell silent.

"Most of us are from ordinary people, and the Marquis of Jin can treat the people like this. What else can I hesitate? Besides, the army's salaries will be supplemented in the future. What about two meals a day? In the past, two meals a day were used in the army. , I haven't seen anyone starve to death." A general shouted.

With these generals going back to appease the soldiers, coupled with the promise of the Marquis of Jin, it did not cause much shock. Many soldiers heard the words and even took out the accumulated military salaries to donate to the state shepherd's house.

After learning about this, Lu Bu was relieved. As for the salaries of the soldiers in the army, he would not ask for them. It was exchanged by the soldiers with blood on the battlefield. After the people are stabilized in Bingzhou, military salaries will be distributed.

Many people outside Huguan could not help shedding tears when they ate the hot porridge. They came from Yuzhou, Yanzhou, or Sili. Driven away, they can only helplessly go to Bingzhou.

I thought that I would face the same treatment, after all, there are too many people outside Huguan.

But when the porridge sheds were built outside the pot, they were more grateful than drooling.

An old man with gray hair fell to his knees with a thud, crying.

More and more people felt something in their hearts, and they couldn't stop choking. Having this bowl of porridge has made them completely identify with Bingzhou in their hearts.

Among the refugees, there are many detailed works of princes. They came to inquire about the situation of Bingzhou’s treatment of refugees. The surrounding scenes also infected them. They couldn’t help thinking of their relatives at home. If the same situation happened in other states, What kind of scenario will it be.
