Chapter 1052 Black Nest?

Ren Jun, the general of Cao Jun, was busy with the grain and fodder of Yuan Shao's army escorted by Wei County and Yangping County. This is a huge income. Dozens of large barns are piled with golden rice, grass baskets with meat and fish vinegar rolling everywhere, and two or three hundred pigs and chickens and ducks are screaming, and other heavy military resources are countless. In the eyes of the hungry Cao Jun, these things are more attractive than the women with bare breasts.

Ren Jun and more than a dozen accountants, holding brushes and account books, shouted loudly in the excited and chaotic crowd, trying to record these gains one by one.

However, compared with the jubilant look of those officials, Ren Jun's face was rarely gloomy and anxious: although there were a lot of food and fodder collected this time, it was not enough to spread it into the 200,000 army. Moreover, Cao Gong also transferred troops to the front line, resulting in another obstruction to the grain storage work in Yanzhou. I'm afraid there will be another discount for this year's harvest. I'm afraid that those scholar officials who oppose Tuntian's great plan will take this opportunity to attack and shout again.

Ren Jun, courtesy name Boda, is from Zhongmu County, Henan Province. When Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, Ren Jun persuaded Zhong Mouling Yang Yuan to govern Henan and resist*. When Cao Cao rose up, Ren Jun recruited hundreds of clan guests to attach to Cao Cao. After that, every time Cao Cao went on an expedition, Ren Jun usually replenished the army in the rear. Later, when there was a famine, Zaoji suggested the implementation of the farmland. Ren Jun was appointed as the general of the peasants and recruited people to the farmland under Xuxia. As a result, there was a bumper harvest year after year, and the grain was enough to fill all the granaries. In the battle of Guandu, Ren Jun presided over the transportation of armaments and grain. The enemy tried to cut off the grain road, but under Ren Jun's protection, the enemy could not succeed. Cao Cao also knew that Ren Jun had worked hard and made great achievements, and appointed him as a captain of Changshui and became the Marquis of Duting. Ren Jun often helps others, and his faith is well known. In 2004, Cao Cao cried for a long time.

Ren Jun's achievements in history are very magnificent. Zaozhi and Ren Jun, two rare figures in history books, have made many more contributions to Cao Cao's career. Unfortunately, under the dazzling eyes of the gathering of heroes and famous generals and ghosts, most people in the world only see the figure of famous generals galloping and ghosts all over the sky, and intentionally or unintentionally ignore the behind-the-scenes heroes who laid the foundation for famous generals and ghosts, which is really a kind of sadness.

And now, it may be a coincidence or a necessity of history. Ren Jun in this time and space is still the general of the peasant under Cao Cao. Just as he was worried about Cao Jun's food and fodder, his deputy Zheng Wan suddenly grabbed his sleeve and told him that Cao Gong summoned him to go back immediately.

Ren Jun was a little surprised. Coincidentally, a frightened horse rushed over with a big car full of turnips, and then roared. The horse and car rolled sideways into the muddy puddle, splashing countless mud ideas, and everyone around him shouted. Ren Jun listened to Zheng Wan's words and couldn't dodge. He was also splashed all over, like an ape with moss.

When he raised his eyes again, Ren Jun saw that it was not only him, but also Mao Wei, the two officials in charge of urging Qianliang, walked to him with a confused face: "Boda, what did Cao Gong call me for?"

Ren Jun shook his head. Although he was Cao Cao's in-law, Cao Cao has always done things impartially. Ren Jun knows nothing more than Mao Wei. Mao Ji looked at Ren Jun's expression and understood Ren Jun's meaning. He immediately pulled Ren Jun and said, "Let's go quickly. Don't let Cao Gong wait anxious."

Ren Jun reacted and immediately put down the account book, didn't care about wiping the mud on his clothes, explained a few words to the group of dizzy subordinates, and then hurried back to the Yecheng Hall.

As soon as they entered the hall, Ren Jun and Mao Jie found that the atmosphere in the hall was very solemn. In addition to the generals who were defending the city, all the powerful generals under Cao Cao were all together. Moreover, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Liu Ye and Jiang Ji, the newly favored counselor, stood aside: In such a situation, there is only one solution. Shi, Cao Gong wants to solve or announce an extremely important matter.

Now for Cao, what can be bigger than this besides cutting Yuan Shao?

"Boda, Xiaoxian, you are here." At this time, Cao was standing in front of a huge sand table. The mountains, rivers and lakes above were vivid. Ren Jun and Mao were surprised to see it.

"Weichen has something to delay, and I hope the lord will not be blamed." Ren Jun and Mao Yu saluted deeply and said nothing else. Because they all know that in the face of Cao Gong, they must not pretend to be smart, and they should not specify his thoughts - unless you are Guo Fengxiao.

Cao did not blame the two at all. Instead, he pulled them to the sand table simulation table and asked kindly, "What do you two think of this?"

Ren Jun saw that this was a detailed topographic map of Hebei and Yan prefectures. Compared with the cowhide square map, this simulation map is more intuitive and detailed. Ren Jun saw that there were a large number of dolls, horse dolls and car dolls in the wooden box on the right, and there were also many of these puppets around Wei County. He immediately understood the use of those puppets and sighed that this picture was really a masterpiece of ghosts and gods and a great achievement of the army.

The two praised, and Cao Cao also smiled with their eyes, but Ren Jun and Mao Wei did not ask who invented the picture - if Cao Gong wanted to say it, he didn't need to ask him to mention it; if he didn't want to say it, you'd better not ask too much.

"Boda and Xiaoxian, I called you two to come today. In fact, there is only one thing to ask." Cao Cao's greeting has been over, his face has become a little solemn, and his tone is also a little low: "Both of you are grain and fod logistics personnel, and you are the most familiar with military food. I want to know, if our army wants to station troops in this place, where is the safest place to store grain and grass? Cao Cao's fingers drew a circle on the Guandu Plain without touching Wei County and Yangping County, which he has occupied now.

"Hmm..." Ren Jun glanced at the simulation map and pondered for a moment before saying, "Yuan Shao's army is more than 200,000 people, with a huge expenditure, so the place where grain must be stored must be convenient, convenient for transportation, and the terrain should not be too dangerous; for confidentiality, the terrain should not be too flat, and it is best to be covered by mountains or concave areas; it must be close to the water to prevent fire; it must also be close to the forest for convenience. Logging and starting camp. North of Guandu, there are not many places that meet these characteristics, according to the opinions of subordinates..." Ren Jun pointed to a little map, "--this is the only place."

"Wu Nest?!" Cao Cao laughed when he saw the situation, obviously because what Ren Jun said was no different from what he thought.

But Mao Ji, who was beside him, objected: "Lord, Wuchao is indeed in line with the key points of grain storage. However, at the same time, the black nest is backed by Daze, with waterways and beaches, which is the so-called chaos of soldiers. Once you fall into an ambush, there is no way to ask for help and evacuate slowly. What's more..."

"What's more?" The smile on Cao Cao's face stopped, but he still listened to Mao Ji's explanation with great interest.

I heard that there are a lot of crows in the black nest, and there are no trees and no nests, which is called the black nest. This is an ominous place. After Mao Ji finished speaking, he saw Cao Cao's face move and couldn't help but say, "According to his subordinates, this Guandu is not the only place to store grain in Wuchao. To the north of Guandu, there are two main points in the east and west: Wuchao in the east and Yangwu in the west. Yangwu's terrain is open, suitable for soldiers, and also suitable for storing grain, and the terrain is much more convenient than Wuchao Daze. Why not? ...."

However, when Cao Cao heard the second half of Mao Ji's words, his eyes were obviously a little erratic. He didn't seem to hear Mao Ji's advice. Instead, he stared straight at the black nest and seemed to see the grand scene of a large number of grain and grass piled up there. Youyou said, "Wuchao, Wuchao... It's really an ominous place. However, if this is not our army's grain storage, but Yuan's grain storage. Naturally, it's not Cao's turn to be the ominous omen.

Ren Jun and Mao Wei were shocked when they heard the words. At the same time, they looked up and saw the light in Cao Cao's eyes jumping like a ghost fire. It seemed that they were plotting a great plan that could annihilate hundreds of thousands of lives in his eyes...
