The Three Kingdoms: Steamed Buns and Pickled Cabbage, I Became the Emperor

Chapter 58 Reputation Mall Upgrade
In just a few months.

The Han people were in a state of chaos.

Each of the princes had their own troops and ruled their own territories.

During the time Ye Chen was out.

Cheng Yu was not idle in Jiangdu County either.

He took many measures, including building city defenses, dredging rivers, organizing land reclamation, improving people's livelihood, and improving laws.

But his focus is still on expanding the army.

In such troubled times, strength is the only criterion for survival.

As long as you have weapons in your hands, you will not become someone else's fish on the chopping board.

Relying on the sufficient food left by Ye Chen, and the cooperation with Mi Fang.

Make money by selling cornmeal and earning the difference in grain prices.

With money and food, Cheng Yu gathered refugees from all directions during this period and recruited a lot of soldiers from the people of Jiangdu County.

In Jiangdu County today, there are as many as eight thousand soldiers and horses.

Compared to before Ye Chen left, it doubled.

"gentlemen!"

"Urgent report!"

A soldier anxiously entered the room and handed a secret report to Cheng Yu.

Open the secret report and take a look.

Cheng Yu was shocked.

The mayor of Guangling County personally led 10,000 soldiers to Jiangdu County to suppress the Yellow Turban Army.

"Where are they now, my lord?"

Cheng Yu hurriedly asked the soldiers.

"Sir, according to our latest news, Commander Qu and his men have gathered 50,000 refugees along the way. Their marching speed is slow, and they have just arrived in Huai'an County!"

Hearing the report from the soldiers below, Cheng Yu's mind flashed with the location of Huai'an and his brows couldn't help but frown.

"Huaian!"

This is a dangerous place!
Now the prefect of Guangling County has been selected.

It’s Zhang Chao.

If the lord does not handle things properly, he will come to war with Zhang Chao, the governor of Guangling County, in Huai'an.

but.

Now the mayor of Guangling County suddenly sent troops to attack Jiangdu County.

He would definitely not be able to send troops to rescue Ye Chen.

If Jiangdu County was really captured.

Then the Yellow Turban Army’s base camp would be gone.

There will be no place for Ye Chen in the world.

"It seems that this is not a coincidence!"

"This is a trap set up specifically for the Lord!"

"Why is this new Guangling County governor so obsessed with the lord?"

Cheng Yu pondered secretly for a while.

I couldn't figure it out.

Greet his soldiers.

He wrote down all his speculations in a secret report and sent it to Ye Chen immediately.

Then he ordered the entire army to prepare for battle and defend against the siege led by Zhang Jun, the prefect of Guangling County.

------

Xuzhou, Huai'an County.

At this moment, outside Huai'an County, simple tents were set up, and four or five thousand disaster victims gathered here.

So many disaster victims came over at once.

The small county town of Huai'an is simply unable to accommodate them.

Besides, they don't want to accept it at all.

As soon as the signs of disaster victims were seen, the four gates of Huai'an County were closed and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

"Sir, there are so many disaster victims entrenched outside the county town!"

"If this continues, I'm afraid something will change!"

"We have to find a way to evacuate them so they can go somewhere else!"

The county magistrate next to Huai'an County Magistrate Song Xuan said.

Song Xuan looked at his own county magistrate with a caring look for the mentally retarded.

How come you are so capable?
They also took the initiative to leave the county to evacuate the victims.

Aren’t you afraid that these unruly people will attack the county town and loot it?

Today, Huai'an County has only a thousand officers and soldiers.

What if the victims go crazy and attack the county town?

It’s hard to say whether we can defend the county with such a small number of people.

The city gates were opened to evacuate them.

Are you so fearless of death? ?
"Don't worry about them. As long as these disaster victims don't act rashly, they can flee and we can defend our city!"

"As long as Huai'an County is not conquered by the disaster victims, we will have accomplished a great feat!"

Song Xuan gave a reminder to his subordinates.

Just stand on the city wall and observe the movements of the victims.

In the tent on the other side.

"My Lord, there are more and more disaster victims following us now!"

"If this continues, I'm afraid something will change!"

Zhao Yun stood beside Ye Chen and said worriedly.

After leaving Qiao County.

They gathered disaster victims along the way.

In a short period of time, the number of disaster victims gathering around them increased from a few thousand at the beginning to a snowball.

It has become the current number of 40,000 to 50,000 people.

Once there are more than ten thousand people, there are no boundaries.

What’s more, there are 40,000 or 50,000 people.

These are 40,000 to 50,000 mouths to feed. Even if each person has a bowl of corn porridge and a white flour bun every day.

Even if there is more food.

I can't stand this kind of consumption!

By the time.

What will happen if there is no food?

Zhao Yun didn't dare to think about it at all.

and so.

He specifically reminded Ye Chen.

"It doesn't matter!"

"I'll take care of the disaster victims!"

"Zilong, just focus on training the newly recruited soldiers!"

Ye Chen was not worried at all about food.

Not to mention the 40,000 or 50,000 people in front of us.

Even if the number of people doubles, he can still feed them.

after all.

The reputation system is here.

Plus the passive of violence return.

This means that he can provide 150,000 servings of corn porridge and white flour steamed buns every day.

That's it.

Not counting other food.

If Ye Chen opened up to recruit disaster victims.

With the food he could provide.

It’s easy to feed 300,000 people without any pressure.

of course.

Those braised chicken legs, braised eggs, braised pork, etc.

These are for the soldiers under his command to eat.

He had no intention of providing these things to the victims.

On the way back.

Ye Chen communicated with Cheng Yu from time to time.

He also learned a piece of news from Cheng Yu.

Now the new prefect of Guangling County has been announced.

And after the eighteen princes ended their alliance.

He didn't believe it either.

The new Guangling County governor would allow a Yellow Turban bandit like him to continue occupying Jiangdu County.

It can be said.

After returning to Jiangdu County.

There might be a big war going on soon.

According to Ye Chen's estimation.

The new governor, Zhang Chao, can mobilize an army of at least 30,000 men.

now.

We just have to find a way.

Return to Jiangdu County as soon as possible.

after all.

He now carries so many refugees with him.

If Zhang Chao attacked himself at this time.

Then he would be in big trouble.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10 million reputation points! ]

[Do you want to upgrade the reputation mall? ]

I heard a cold mechanical sound in my mind.

Ye Chen was stunned.

He didn't expect to accumulate 10 million reputation points so quickly.

Since this time.

He gained a lot of reputation from the disaster victims.

Plus the reputation value provided by the people of Jiangdu County.

It is understandable that it can reach 10 million.

At least prove one thing.

During the time he was away, Cheng Yu managed Jiangdu County quite well.

Now that you can upgrade your reputation mall.

Then what is there to hesitate about?

"System, upgrade the reputation mall."

Ye Chen gave orders directly to the system in his mind.

Will it be possible to achieve great development in these troubled times?

He was counting on the reputation mall to bring him some good stuff.

after all.

The eighteen princes failed in their campaign against Dong Zhuo.

The future big man.

It can only get more chaotic.

【Ding! 】

【Reputation Mall Upgrade.】

[Congratulations to the host for successfully opening the Level 4 Reputation Mall! ]
