"Ten catties of rice for one person, 10,000 catties for 1,000 people, 10,000 catties for 10,000 catties, so much every month, and so many soldiers to raise, where do we get so much food?"

In the past three days, this has been the more than how many times Yan Yan has asked Tang Ning this question.

This can't be blamed on her, she is a princess of the grassland, and she still has to worry about eating, but she can't imagine how far a country like Chen Guo, which can maintain for decades by relying only on grain reserves, has no shortage of food.

There are more than 40 states in the south of the Yangtze River, which can be called the granary of the world, not to mention Chen Guo, even if it is to feed Chen Chu at the same time, plus the grassland is more than enough.

After Tang Ning walked from Jiangnan, the two provinces in Jiangnan and nearly forty states were all under the control of the imperial court, and a little food was allocated to help them without any pressure.

As the marshal of this operation, Tang Ning still has this little authority.

As long as it can promote peace between the grassland and the Chen State, the wealthy Chen Huang doesn't care about these hundreds of thousands of catties of grain, if there is a war, the loss of the Chen State will be much more than this.

Tang Ning looked at Yan Yan and said, "If you believe me, let Ayina lead the brothers of the Wuyan tribe to go outside Fengzhou, a hundred miles north of Yinshan, where the grain is there." ”

Wan Yan Yan glanced at him and said, "Of course I believe you." ”

She walked outside the tent and whispered a few words to Aina, who nodded and said, "I'll go now." ”

After that, Yan Yan walked back, looked at Tang Ning, and asked, "What are we doing now?" ”

"What are you going to do...... Tang Ning stretched and asked, "What do you usually do?" ”

Wan Yan Yan thought for a while and said, "Most of the time I go hunting, will you go with me......"

"No, no." Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "I don't know how to ride a horse." ”

Wan Yan Yan thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she said, "I can teach you!" ”

After Yan Yan's riding skills, Tang Ning knew everyone, no one surpassed her in riding, and learning riding with her was indeed a rare opportunity, riding and shooting was his shortcoming, and he had long thought about making up for this shortcoming.

Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "Then you can teach me archery by the way......

"Okay!" Wan Yan Yan was very interested in being able to crush Tang Ning in some aspects, and when he was his teacher, he brought dozens of guards and left the camp with Tang Ning.

Aina and Xiao Jue connected, it took at least ten days to go back and forth, and during this time, Tang Ning had nothing to do, so he went out with Wan Yanyan to ride horses and shoot arrows.

Wan Yan Yan's martial arts are average, but his riding and archery are top-notch, and after a few days, Tang Ning can obviously feel his progress.

He and Wan Yan Yan were riding horses and shooting rabbits on the grassland, and when they were having fun, a hundred miles north of Yinshan, Xiao Jue rode on a horse, holding a steamed bun in one hand and a green onion in the other, and took a bite of the steamed bun with the green onion, looked at the vast grassland in front of him, and said in surprise: "When is it, why haven't you come yet?" ”

Lu Ya stood beside him, glanced at him, frowned, and said, "Can you stop eating this?" ”

Xiao Jue glanced at her and said, "What's wrong with green onions, green onions are a good thing, some people want to eat them yet, I was caught by them in those days, and I couldn't eat them if I wanted to......"

At this moment, a young general who was lying on the ground with his ears firmly attached to the ground suddenly got up, ran over quickly, and said quickly: "General, there are cavalry coming ten miles ahead, about 500 people......

Lu Ya looked at Xiao Jue and asked, "Are they here?" ”

"I don't know if it's them." Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "Let's take a look first." ”

Ten miles away, in an instant on the grassland, the ground under their feet shook, and a black line appeared in front of them.

The young general looked into the distance and said, "General, look at their banner, it should be someone from the Wuyan Department." ”

"Uyanbu, that's it." Xiao Jue had a smile on his face, turned the horse's head, and said, "Withdraw!" ”

The young general answered, and hundreds of knights jumped their horses' heads at the same time, and galloped forward, leaving only a hundred carriages in their place, and the bulging sacks on the carriages, which did not know what they contained.

At the same time, the cavalry of the Uyan Department had also discovered the men and horses in front, and the face of one of Aina's side changed greatly, and he was about to order the whole army to be on guard, but he found that the other party had simply turned around and fled.

On the grassland, they are the absolute kings, and when Chen Chu's army sees them, it is very likely that they will escape, but it is the first time he has seen them flee so simply.

The crowd drove forward and found that there were still more than 100 carriages left in the same place.

One looked at the direction in which Xiao Jue and the others were evacuating, looked at Aina, and asked, "Leader, do you want to catch up?" ”

Aina looked at him and said, "Let's see what it is." ”

The man jumped off his horse, came to the carriage, opened a bag, and looked stunned when he saw the white rice inside.

As if thinking of something, he opened a few more bags, and when he saw that these carriages were loaded with rice, his face was ecstatic, and he laughed and said, "Chief, these are grains, these are grains!" ”

……

The leader of Aina led the warriors of the Uyan tribe to plunder a grain transport team of the Chen state, seized a large amount of grain, and transported it back to the Uyan tribe an hour ago.

This can be described as a rare harvest, in order to celebrate, each household in the Wuyan Department has divided twenty catties of grain, and will hold a whole sheep banquet at night, in the Wuyan Department, singing and dancing.

Wan Yan Yan saw the grain, her eyes were shining, and the sweat was still like this, how happy the people under her were, naturally there was no need to say it.

On the second day, Wan Yan Yan transported the captured grain to various ministries according to the quota of conscription.

Uta Ministry.

Everyone watched the truckloads of grain come in, swallowing a mouthful of saliva from time to time.

One stood beside the cart full of grain and said loudly: "Kule, Ishbu, Uda's family, come and get food!" ”

Kule, Ishbu and Uda were all warriors who participated in the recruitment of the Four Princesses, watching their families take away the food, seeing that the food on the car was getting less and less, some people who were still watching finally couldn't help it.

What the fourth princess said is not empty words, this is real food, food that can save lives, one person joins the army, the whole family is not hungry, this kind of good thing, if you miss it, there will be no more.

"I'll go too!"

"Count me in!"

"I'm the first, you go to the back!"

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, come one by one, come one by one......"

……

For people who live on the grasslands and worry about their livelihoods every year, there is nothing more reassuring than food.

After the promise of the fourth princess was fulfilled, his tribes responded one by one, but anyone who had a strong man in the family did not hesitate to join her personal guard.

And for those orphans who do not have strong men in their families, the fourth princess will also provide them with some food to maintain their livelihood.

This is the first time that her clan has truly felt the benefits of being under the hands of the four princesses.

In the past few days, among the more than ten departments, many people have bowed down in the direction of the Wuyan Department and paid their highest respect to the four princesses.

Nipanggubu, Uta looked at the warriors of the clan who surrounded him, got up from the bed with difficulty, and said in disbelief: "Could it be that her food really fell from the sky?" ”
