Chapter 465

They went out of the city, and a big fire broke out in the city.

However, Zhang Yu naturally had a sense of propriety and did not harm the ordinary people.

The fire didn't kill a person, but it had a huge impact.

Because the fire burned down the prefecture.

The pastoral capital of a state is like the capital of a country.

Zhang Yu and they stopped when they got out of the city.

Then Zhang Yu asked people to come forward and shout.

"Our Lord said that burning down the prefecture can only be regarded as interest. Tao Qian didn't believe what he said. When our Lord went back, he brought up a large army to fight against Tao Qian and divided Xuzhou equally with Cao Cao. " Cried the soldier.

After the soldiers finished, Zhang Yu left with his troops.

Naturally, someone in the city told Tao Qian the news.

However, Tao Qian had already fainted and was resting in a different courtyard in the city.

Liu Bei is also a gloomy face, Zhang Yu has told to burn the prefecture, and he began only when Zhang Yu is to hide.

I didn't expect that Zhang Yu really led the army to burn the prefecture.

When Zhang Yu went back, his trip was not long and lasted more than three months.

When he went south, he came with 30000 troops, and when he went back, he went back with nearly 50000 troops.

The most important thing is to train the recruits to become elite soldiers after several wars.

And Zhang Yu also made a lot of money.

Zhang Yu also made a lot of money from his previous military expenses and his 10 million dollars to help denounce Cao Cao.

Tao Qian still owes him a lot of money.

On the way back, Zhang Yu sent people around to publicize, and listed the bill.

He threatened that Tao Qian was dishonest and didn't give him money. Then he threatened Tao Qian and wanted to invite Cao Cao to attack Xuzhou and divide Xuzhou equally.

The change of Xuzhou shocked the whole world.

Cao Cao sighed again and again. He was so close that he could conquer Xuzhou himself. Finally, because of the lack of food and grass and the presence of Zhang Yu, Cao Cao failed to conquer Xuzhou.

Cao Cao assessed that if he joined hands with Zhang Yu, they could easily destroy Xuzhou.

Cao Cao called Cheng Yu and other counselors, and then asked, "how likely is it to join hands with Zhang Yu to destroy Xuzhou?"

Cheng Yu calculated silently and said: "Zhang Yu has always been unprofitable and can't get up early. He will definitely do what is beneficial. But last time it was obvious that if the two sides cooperated, we could win Xuzhou, but Zhang Yu refused to cooperate with us. "

Cheng Yu smoothed his beard, and then continued: "it can be seen that Zhang Yu is rational. At present, he can't eat Xuzhou, so he won't cooperate with us. He threatened to cooperate with us to win Xuzhou, but he just wanted to use us. "

Cheng Yu's analysis dispels the idea that Cao Cao wants to cooperate with Zhang Yu.

Obviously, Zhang Yu only used Cao Cao to intimidate Tao Qian.

However, Cao Cao could not make it clear that he would not attack Xuzhou.

Cao Cao has long regarded Xuzhou as his own territory, otherwise he would not attack Xuzhou without enough food and grass.

Tao Qian was angry and anxious when he received the news from Zhang Yu.

Tao Qian barely supported his weak body, and then called his staff.

"Xuzhou is in danger. Zhang Yu has threatened to destroy Xuzhou. What good strategies do you have?" Tao Qian said.

It's not easy to deal with the silence.

They did not dare to say more, so they were afraid to offend Zhang Yu.

Offending Zhang Yu doesn't come to a good end. Maybe the next time we attack Xuzhou, we'll find them.

At the beginning, several family members were killed by Zhang Yu because they had a conflict with his soldiers. Individual families were afraid and privately asked Zhang Yu to make amends.

Everyone was silent, but Mi Zhu stood up and said, "Lord, Zhang Yu's subordinates know him best. As long as he is given enough benefits, that is, the amount owed to him, he will not attack Xuzhou."

Mi Zhu hesitated for a moment and said, "my subordinates are willing to go to Yangzhou in person to persuade Zhang Yu. Although they are related by marriage, they will never betray the interests of Xuzhou."

Tao Qian didn't make a statement. He looked at the people and they were silent.

"Well, it's just that I owe Zhang Yu a lot in Xuzhou now. What money should I give him?" Tao Qian sighed.

Mi Zhu stood up again and said, "Mr. Zhou mu, there will always be some, and we can discuss with Zhang Yu to pay in other ways. My subordinates are willing to contribute three million yuan to gather together from other aristocratic families. It's better to stabilize Zhang Yu first. "

"OK, you will go to Yangzhou to discuss with Zhang Yu."

Tao Qian had no choice but to negotiate with Zhang Yu, even without bargaining chips.

Mi Zhu also said: "Mr. Zhou mu, if you don't have enough sincerity to go to Yangzhou, I'm afraid you will annoy Zhang Yu instead. Please ask Mr. Zhou mu for authorization. What conditions can you agree to?"

At this point, Tao Qian is a big head again.

Finally, after a while of discussion, Tao Qian had to promise to raise 30 million yuan to Zhang Yu within one month, and the rest would be replaced by other ways.

In this way, MI Zhu was ordered to negotiate.

When Zhang Yu just returned to Yangzhou, he did not return to Kuaiji county. Instead, he was stationed in Jiangdu on the North Bank of the Yangtze River.

In addition, Zhang Yu also arranged 50000 troops here, threatening Tao Qian with 100000 troops.

Whether it's acting or real fighting, you always have to show off.

Zhang Yu's previous news really threatened Tao Qian.

Zhang Yu understands that Xuzhou has long been targeted by Cao Cao. Once he takes Xuzhou, the battle line is very long and he can't keep it. So Zhang Yu didn't want Xuzhou at the beginning.

However, if Tao Qian doesn't comply, Zhang Yu will definitely attack, but he will not destroy Xuzhou, instead, he will attack one or two counties.

It is impossible to estimate the value of a county.

However, Zhang Yu is not in a hurry. Although his troops are stationed in Jiangdu, Zhang Yu mainly trains his troops.

Zhang Yu asks Dianwei and Gao Shun to train in Jiangdu, but he goes back to find his wife.

Several wives are separated for a long time.

Zhang Yu has been out for a year and a half.

Zhang Zhao did a good job and developed the whole Jiangdong well.

At this time, Jiangdong area was very prosperous.

Jiangdong area is the most prosperous place in later generations.

In ancient times, although the geographical conditions were superior, the population was sparse.

Now, the population is very large, so the development is very fast.

It is no exaggeration to say that at this time, the Jiangdong region is definitely the most economically active place on earth.

Over the Yangtze River, there are many merchant ships.

In particular, Zhang Yu did not pursue the rank of scholars, agriculture, industry and commerce, but all things were equal.

Rich businessmen do whatever they like as long as they don't break the law.

However, Zhang Yu also stipulates how much land a family can only own.

Land can never be merged.

Ancient China is a history of land annexation.

In the later period of the general Dynasty, the land annexation was serious and the people could not survive, so the dynasty collapsed.

For example, in the late Ming Dynasty, the land of a prince was as large as that of many provinces, which shows how serious the land annexation was.

And Zhang Yu is to avoid such things.
