Chapter 53 Seedlings have grown

"Chief Wu, what is the reputation of this Lin Governor's Mansion?"

Chen Xiong thought of Lin Guozhong's father and son, and the knowledge and cultivation of the two were naturally not bad, but they didn't know what their character was.

"Word of mouth is mixed, but it's not a human sin. There is no big evil in the Lin family, and some small mistakes are inevitable. "Wu Jiu also admires Governor Lin, although he is also greedy, but he is not so ugly.

Chen Xiong nodded reassuringly: "Elder Zhao, you are all Confucian scholars, you go and try their tone." There is also a taxi in Dengzhou, as long as the character is passable, the literary style does not need to be too much. ”

Zhao Lao was full of smiles: "Don't worry, lord, leave it all to me." ”

"Even if Governor Lin is unwilling to follow us back to the south, Dengzhou Civil still let him take care of it first, and you will also watch."

"It's the lord."

It has been a month since the birth of the first rank of the Grass and Wood Soldiers, and after replenishing the energy of the Grass and Wood Soldiers this time, they have also undergone great changes.

The expression on Mu's face became more and more, and now he smiled when he felt the change in his body.

"Kiichi, how's that?" Seeing that Mu woke up, Chen Xiong hurriedly asked.

"My lord, I can eat. I felt like all the organs in my body were formed, but I was saturated with energy. ”

"What, can you eat?" Chen Xiong immediately rejoiced.

Seeing the ten wooden figures nodding one after another, Chen Xiong couldn't help but smile: "Haha, good, great." ”

The grass and wood soldiers rely on his energy alone, and in the end, they can only reach about 10,000 people at most. 10,000 elites can protect themselves at most, but it is difficult to compete with the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Now the first wooden people and dozens of scarecrows have evolved a digestive system, which means that they will no longer need to replenish their energy every day after a month. It also means that there will be more and more grass soldiers.

"It seems that it should be a good life for a few years, and then it will be more certain." After the first battle of the Goryeo army, let him know that the number of Han troops was a huge shortcoming. This is also the reason why he recruited a large number of troops as soon as he arrived in Dengzhou, and the era of cold weapons still relied on crowd tactics after all.

Now the prefect of Lin has returned to the throne, and both father and son have agreed to join the Han army. In troubled times, he doesn't want to make his family small anymore, and he will be affected by himself in the future.

"The salt of the main sea is enough for hundreds of thousands of people for half a year, and the surrounding farmland has also been sorted out 300,000 mu." Wu Jiu didn't know why the main guild wanted them to open up the land, but he still completed it quickly, and he couldn't let the farmers be too idle anyway.

"Well, that's good, Haiyan first! Let them make rainproof tents and so on, by the way, how many flax and cotton seeds are there? ”

Wu Jiu was still full of doubts: "The Lord announced that there are enough hemp seeds for 30,000 mu, but there are not many cotton, only enough for 7,000 mu of land. ”

"This?" Zhao Lao and Lin Guozhong were very puzzled, it was impossible to plant at this time!

"Okay, Wu Jiu planted all the hemp, cotton and wheat seeds, by the way, I will cultivate the seedlings first, and I will make my own arrangements in the afternoon when the seeds are planted."

"Yes, my lord, I'll go right away."

Wu Jiu left, and when he saw that Zhao Lao wanted to stop talking, Chen Xiong immediately said: "Don't worry, Zhao Lao, I have my own arrangements, this batch of seeds can be harvested within ten days, and we will leave after harvesting." ”

"This!" Zhao Lao smiled bitterly and said no more, he would know everything in a few days, and he didn't have to doubt the lord now.

Zhang Shou thought strangely, could it be that there are so many of those magic medicines, and hundreds of thousands of acres of land can be arranged.

Seeing that the lord stopped, Chen Chang immediately reported: "Lord, tens of thousands of people have joined the headquarters in the past few days, and four thousand of the sturdy ones have been selected, plus the guards selected before, for a total of more than 6,000 people. ”

Chen Xiong nodded lightly: "All the six thousand people belong to the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Armies, and you have all trained well with General Lin during this time." ”

"It's the lord."

Although Lin Hu is not a famous general, he is also a regular general of the Ming army. It's better than the commanders of these peasant soldiers, so Lin Hu was also appointed as the deputy head of the Han army. Although Lin Hu has no real power, he is now the actual head of the Han Five, Han, Han and Seventh Army.

"My lord, these displaced people are coming to vote one after another, and there will be tens of thousands of displaced people in the direction of Qingzhou." Lin Guozhong, the new deputy chief of the Han army, still does not want to recruit too many displaced people.

Chen Xiong knew Lin Guozhong's worries, but he knew what kind of goods the Ming army in Jiangbei and Jiangnan was, so he didn't need to worry about it.

"Deputy Commander, there is no need to worry, our Han Army is sure, and there is no need to worry about the food problem. However, medicinal herbs used on other roads had to be purchased in large quantities. ”

Medicine! Lin Guozhong frowned: "My lord, medicinal materials are valuables, and a large number of medicinal materials in Shandong are in the hands of Jinan. Nowadays, we don't acquire a lot of acquisitions. ”

If there were no large quantities of typhoid fever and antipyretic herbs in the Great Migration, I am afraid that many old and weak people would have fallen down by then. There are also hemostatic drugs for the Han army, which also need a lot of them.

"We increased the amount of money to buy, is the governor of Jinan still unwilling?"

Lin Guozhong nodded and shook his head: "The lord is not as good as before, and now the real person in charge of Jinan is Liu Zeqing, the general soldier of Shandong." He wants to destroy us, so how can he trade with us. ”

Chen Xiong smiled coldly: "Hehe, okay, this traitor will kill him sooner or later." ”

Jinan Mansion is still hundreds of miles away, and it takes at least ten days to go back and forth, and now he has no time to go to Jinan.

In the afternoon, Chen Xiong took his guards out of the city and rushed to the breeding ground.

"Lord, the seeds have been planted, and this vacant land has a total of more than 2,000 acres, which is enough for 300,000 acres of land to raise seedlings. But can this really work, my lord? ”

Chen Xiong nodded and didn't explain to Wu Jiu, and walked through the three thousand acres of land step by step. Now his energy scattering range is a hundred meters, and more than two thousand acres of land will soon be covered.

"Okay, chief, let them drench more water, send someone to guard tonight, and mobilize everyone tomorrow to plant seedlings as soon as possible."

"It's the lord." Wu Jiu became more and more confused, but he didn't dare to say much about the lord's order. As for the sudden hot and humid weather, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Chen Xiong left after speaking, he was extremely weak now, and he just wanted to go back and sleep.

It's the day of dawn again~~

"Well, it's finally dawn, and I've stayed here all night."

"With you, eat and drink, what else do you want."

The farmer smiled: "Hehe, I'm not bored to say a few words." ”

"Hehe, okay, let's go and see if there are any mice and pheasants in the field, and I'll go back to eat in a while, and the chief said that we will eat with us today, until we can't eat it."

All the farmers were happy: "Okay, good, eat a big meal today, and it's time to celebrate the New Year in advance." ”

The sky was getting brighter, and the farmers also extinguished the torches.

"Hey, green."

"Hey, you saw that, too."

"This, it's really grown, how is it possible."

Hundreds of farmers in all corners soon noticed the changes in their fields, which had been empty and now turned into a sea of green.

"Hurry up, which of you has good legs, go back and report to the chief."

"Yes, report to the chief quickly and call someone to plant seedlings."

"Uncle, I'll go." The young peasant households ran away, and the lord did not lie to them, and the hundreds of thousands of acres of land they had worked so hard to cultivate would not be wasted.

When the peasants ran to the city gate, it was not yet time to open the gate.

"Who's coming?"

Facing the soldiers on the head of the city, the farmers did not panic: "Brother soldier, tell the chief quickly, the wheat seedlings have grown, they have really grown." ”

"You're from our Han Army headquarters, you wait."

The captain of the Fifth Army of the Han Dynasty hurriedly ran to the city tower, and at this time, Chen Chang, who was on night duty in the city tower, had also woken up.

"What's going on?"

When the captain saw the salute, he said: "The farmers in the headquarters under the Great Wall of the Army said that they want to tell the chief what wheat seedlings have grown!" ”

Mai Miao~ Chen Chang was stunned and immediately stood up: "What wheat seedlings have really grown, no, prepare the horse quickly, I will go over to confirm in person." ”

"It's the Commander."

Soon the cavalry on duty at night were assembled, and as soon as the city gate was opened, Chen Chang left with hundreds of cavalry.

Then the gates were no longer closed, and the peasants immediately ran into the city.

Woohoo~~

Seeing a large area of green, Chen Chang immediately jumped off the horse, and then rushed over to stroke the tender green seedling leaves.

"Really, really seedlings."

"Haha, the lord really won't do useless things."

Chen Xiong insisted on going his own way to open up nearly 100,000 people, and although everyone didn't dare to say much, they were all holding back their suspicions in their hearts. Chen Chang was even afraid that the lord didn't even have this bit of common sense!
