Juyang, County Sheriff's Mansion.

Chen Yaotian is sitting at the top, and the civil servants and generals below are on both sides. A closer look shows that the team of generals has grown a lot. In addition to Dian Wei, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Gao Lan, Ju Yi, and Zhu Ling, there are also two new faces.

, these two people are: Yan Gang and Zhang He.

Yan Gang was Commander Yan who was captured by Ju Yi when he killed the rebellious family in Shanggu. After Chen Yaotian led his troops to defeat 30,000 Wuhuan and returned to the army, he heard that Ju Yi had captured a very brave general. He was eager for talents and ordered

The guards brought him up, and after careful questioning, they found out that his name was Yan Gang.

In history, Yan Gang was a general who took refuge with Gongsun Zan, a prince in the north. He was deeply loved by his subordinates. Gongsun Zan even handed over his top ace troops to Yan Gang's command, which shows how much he was valued. In the Battle of Jieqiao

At that time, Ju Yi led the dead soldiers to defeat the white horse Yicong led by Yan Gang, and Yan Gang himself was killed by Ju Yi's three moves. In Chen Yaotian's book, no one whose name was mentioned in the history books would be spared.

Principle, while secretly sighing that due to his arrival, the enemies Ju Yi and Yan Gang met early, while promising fame and fortune to lure him on board his ship.

Serving under Chen Yaotian, the prefect, was much better than being a private soldier commander in a broken family. Not to mention refusing to die, Yan Gang felt that he had not lived enough, so after some consideration, he agreed to join Chen Yaotian's camp.

Zhang He's defection was an unexpected blessing. The Talent Acquisition Department went to various places according to the list listed by Chen Yaotian to persuade them to join, but they were rejected many times. These people were all good people. Although Chen Yaotian had a small reputation, this could not impress them at all.

, some people are even angry that Chen Yaotian did not come to invite him in person. Only Zhang He was invited to come and join him. Of course, although the Talent Acquisition Department's invitation to the talents on the list is considered a failure, his role is not small.

China has a vast land and abundant resources, and there are many talents. Although top talents have not been discovered, many middle and low-level talents who are qualified to serve as centurions, county officials, etc. have been found. After Chen Yaotian personally tested them, he added them to each county according to civil and military skills.

and positions where the army is lacking.

"Yuan Chang, what is the population of our Shanggu now?" Zhong Yao was in charge of population statistics and refugee absorption. Chen Yaotian sat upright above and asked.

"Lord, according to detailed statistics a few days ago, the population of the entire Shanggu has exceeded one million, accounting for about one-third of Youzhou's population. The original population was 600,000. Last year, 300,000 refugees were absorbed by the former

Come, this year only 100,000 refugees have come to seek refuge." Zhong Yao came out and bowed in reply.

"Compared to last year, why are one-third less refugees coming this year? Is there something wrong with our policy?" There is no doubt about the role of the people. Chen Yaotian is well aware of this. After hearing Zhong Yao's answer, he habitually

frowned.

"Don't worry, my lord. There are two reasons for the decrease in refugees. One is that last year we defeated Yuyang Wuhuan, one of the culprits of burning, killing and looting. Now they are consumed by civil war and have no time to plunder the people as before. The second is that they are consumed by civil war and have no time to plunder the people as before.

Since there have been no natural disasters in various parts of the Han Dynasty this year, the people will naturally not leave their homeland as long as they have food in their hands."

"So that's the reason." Chen Yaotian breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and asked Jushou again, who was in charge of people's production: "Guangping, the autumn harvest season has just passed, how is the grain output in various places? How much grain do we have in the warehouse?".

"Thanks to my lord, the weather has been good in Shanggu since you took office, and the past two years have been bumper harvests. Last year's food was used to absorb the refugees and used as seeds for this year. There is not much left. This year there are fewer refugees coming to Shanggu.
