Chapter 1181

"Including Liu Bei leading the refugees to cross the river."

"And the main elite of the Qingzhou Huang Jin went first. All of this seems to have a detailed plan and preparation."

"The Lord received a million refugees in Jizhou at that time and prepared for such a long time."

"Although Taishan Commandery is adjacent to Langya State, only a few hundred miles away, if it were a random event, where would there be such a quick decision?"

"The refugees clearly didn't need to cross the river, they just needed to take a detour, but Liu Bei insisted on letting the refugees cross the river, causing hundreds of thousands of refugees to be buried in the Wu River."

"The blame for slaughtering the refugees fell on General Cao Ren and others, while Liu Bei obtained the most elite young men among the Qingzhou refugees."

"The subordinate thinks that these are all unreasonable."

"So... it is best to investigate before making a decision."

Listening to Jia Xu's words, Duan Yu gradually fell into deep thought.

In his mind, the Battle of Changban suddenly flashed, where Liu Bei carried the commoners to escape.

According to later analysis, Liu Bei's main purpose in carrying the commoners at that time was to delay the speed of Cao Cao's pursuit.

Using the scattered commoners to block Cao Cao's pursuers.

Of course, this is also a guess, because no one knows what Liu Bei was thinking.

Liu Bei never admitted this himself.

But this time leading the refugees to cross the river.

Duan Yu felt that there was no need for this at all.

The Qingzhou refugees were not familiar with the terrain and did not know that they could bypass the Wu River more than ten miles away.

But Liu Bei could not have not known.

What was his purpose in crossing the river?

Let's make a bold guess.

You will know when you see what Liu Bei obtained.

A million Qingzhou refugees, let alone Liu Bei couldn't afford to raise them.

Even he himself prepared for more than half a year before he dared to accept a million refugees.

Of course, it is not the same thing from Jizhou to Liangzhou and from Taishan Commandery to Langya State.

But in the final analysis, these people need to be raised.

If a million refugees were really poured into Langya State, it would inevitably destroy the ecological system of Langya State immediately, and even the entire Xuzhou.

Would the local clans of Langya State support Liu Bei?

Would Tao Qian support Liu Bei?

I'm afraid not.

A million refugees, most of them are burdens.

But if you remove the dregs among the million refugees, that is, the elderly, weak, women, and children, and only keep the twenty or thirty thousand young men.

That is another matter.

These twenty or thirty thousand people organized together are an army.

Of course, Liu Bei couldn't afford to raise them either.

But Yuan Kui intervened.

The Cao brothers were all stripped of their official positions and punished, which was a crime from Luoyang.

Yuan Kui, who was in Luoyang, intervened in this matter because of Liu Bei's memorial.

With Yuan Kui's support, that is another way of saying it.

"Order Liu Bai Tu to mobilize the Military Affairs Department, investigate!"

"Investigate to the end!"

Inside the capital of the Cheshi Kingdom, the King of Cheshi was sitting in the hall enjoying dinner.

Suddenly, a sound of rolling thunder roared in his ears.

Startled, the silver chopsticks in the King of Cheshi's hand fell directly to the ground. ===== CHAPTER 1183 =====
