Chapter 11: Feeding War with War
Han Hao heard Han Xuan say the three words of Tuntian system, nodded and praised: "Tuntian system, this name is good." Xuan'er, just listen to you, we will call it the tuntian system. ”
Han Hao took Han Xuan and them into a large dock fort, which had halls, pavilions, kitchens, and toilets in it, and the soldiers and doormen inside put down their work to salute Han Hao when they saw Han Hao coming, and Han Hao waved his hand to signal them to continue working.
Han Hao entered a warehouse, found a doorman in charge of the granary and asked, "How long is the grain and grass in the dock fort enough?" The doorman said, "Until February next year at most." After hearing this, Han Hao couldn't help frowning, and said, "You first distribute the surplus grain reasonably, and when I return to my hometown, I will send someone to withdraw gold and silver to buy grain and grass in various places." ”
Han Hao was still worried in his heart, it was a great drought in the north, the harvest in the fields was not good, there were hungry people everywhere, and the price of grain had risen to sky-high prices.
Han Xuan's face was solemn when he saw Han Hao coming out, and he chased after Han Hao to ask the reason. Han Haocai said: "This year's grain is not enough for the people of Wubao to consume, and the surplus grain is enough when the harvest is good in previous years." In the past two years, there have been more and more thieves in the territory, and I have no choice but to recruit a lot of soldiers, and this person will consume food faster. ”
After hearing this, Han Xuan also fell into hard thought, millet is grown in the north, and it is ripe every year. Han Xuan wanted to build a vegetable greenhouse, but in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, where to get plastic film.
Dong Wan comforted Han Xuan and said, "Brother Xuan, don't worry, I'll tell my father when I go back and ask him to send food to your family." ”
Han Hao was naturally very happy when he heard it, but Han Xuan was thinking of other countermeasures, there were many bandits in Wude County, and they often came to harass him. Passive defense will only make them more rampant, but Han Hao's thousands of people dare not take the initiative to attack, it seems that his brother is still a little conservative.
So Han Xuan suggested to Han Hao: "It's better to take the initiative to defend passively, it's better to exterminate the big and small bandits in the county, and you will definitely get a lot of money and food by capturing the cottage." In fact, in this way, it can also reduce the number of soldiers and reduce food consumption, which is the method of feeding war with war.
Han Hao said: "I led my troops to attack the cottage, who will guard the Wu Fort?" ”
Han Xuan said: "Little brother is willing to ask for help, eldest brother will give me a thousand soldiers, and I will level these cottages for my eldest brother!" "Han Xuan didn't dare to ask for less people, he had seen the power of bandits in Yamen Village before, Han Xuan had no experience in leading troops, and a thousand people was already a lot for him.
After hearing this, Han Hao immediately vetoed it and said, "You are still young, and you have never brought soldiers, so you can only be sent to death if you go." ”
Han Xuan still didn't give up, and Han Hao resolutely refused: "Xuan'er, I asked you to go to Changsha to contact your uncle before, but you encountered a thief, and my mother scolded me fiercely for this." Now you're going to lead troops to attack the bandits, and your mother won't agree. ”
Han Xuan thought that he still had to find a way to persuade Du Shi before Han Hao could agree to himself.
Dong Wan saw that Han Xuan was depressed, and said, "Brother Xuan, if you really want to lead the soldiers, I will ask my father to transfer some of the family soldiers to you." ”
Han Xuan was cute by her, this little girl always defends herself, and it seems that she has had a good relationship with the original owner of this body before. Han Xuan said to her: "Thank you, Sister Wan'er, but Brother Xuan is a man, and he can't always rely on girls to help." ”
Han Xuan continued to beg Han Hao: "That brother led the army to fight against the bandits, and I will help you defend the dock fort, so let's do it." ”
Han Hao still refused to agree: "Xuan'er, you said that you are just eleven years old this year, and you didn't practice martial arts and the art of war before. If you are in command of so many people, can you do it? ”
Han Xuan said: "Then from today on, ask my brother to teach me martial arts and the art of war." ”
Han Hao said helplessly: "Okay, but if you study halfway like before, I won't teach you, and you will serve my mother honestly at home." ”
Han Xuan agreed, so after taking Su Qiaoer and Dong Wan to visit the dock fort, everyone returned to the Han Mansion together.
In the courtyard of the Han Mansion, Han Xuan practiced Zama step first under the guidance of Han Hao. Han Xuan was just an otaku in his previous life, and this body was also weak, where could he get two hours. I saw that Han Xuan's forehead was bruised, his face was flushed, and he couldn't hold on.
"Stand up for me! How to practice if the game is unstable, and I still want to go into battle to kill the enemy. Han Hao's scolding kept coming from his ears.
Han Xuan gritted his teeth, constantly thinking in his mind that in order to survive in this troubled world, he must practice kung fu. In this era, the strong are like clouds, and they don't seek to fight on the battlefield, just to have the power to protect themselves. Even if you run away, you have to have a strong body to run fast, hold on, what is this hardship!
Time passed little by little, the sun gradually set, and Han Xuan's physical strength was gradually lost. Su Qiao'er came over with a pot of roast chicken, shook it in front of Han Xuan, and asked, "Is it fragrant, do you want to eat it?" ”
Han Xuan swallowed his saliva and nodded, Su Qiao'er picked up a piece of chicken leg and handed it to Han Xuan's mouth, and immediately took it back and ate it by herself. Han Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "You, you ......"
At this time, Dong Wan also came over with a wooden box. When the wooden box was opened, there was a strong aroma of corn rice, which contained cakes, vegetables and mutton. Dong Wan smiled and said, "Brother Xuan, you're tired." Let's take a break, come, let's eat first. Han Xuan looked at Dong Wan's innocent smile, her whole body seemed to exude a holy brilliance, Han Xuan couldn't help but sigh, "Is this an angel?"
Du Shi finally came over, and when he saw that Han Xuan's strength was exhausted, he hurriedly said, "Xuan'er, stop and rest, eat some food and meat soup to replenish your body!" ”
Han Hao saw that his mother was also coming, so he asked Han Xuan to stop, and Han Xuan straightened up with the support of Dong Wan and the maid, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Han Xuan devoured the meal sent by Dong Wan, and stroked his full stomach, which was very satisfied. The maid had already boiled hot water, and Han Xuan bathed in the wooden barrel to wash off the sweat of his body, what a cool word!
Han Xuan insisted on practicing basic skills such as Zama step for a month, and finally Han Hao decided to teach him some martial arts. Several family members brought over a lot of weapons, such as knives, swords, halberds, guns, lances, etc., all of which were placed on the weapon rack, and Han Hao asked Han Xuan to pick one to take advantage of. Han Xuan thought about it for a while and chose the sword, although the sword was relatively short among these weapons, it was still more convenient to use for self-defense.
Han Hao nodded with satisfaction and said, "I am also good at making swords, a few years ago, I was fortunate to have a few moves from the Great Sword Master Wang Yue in Jingshi, and my swordsmanship has greatly improved. ”
Han Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard Wang Yue, this Wang Yue's swordsmanship dared to say the second in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and no one dared to say the first. Han Xuan couldn't help but smile and said, it seems that it is quite wise to choose a sword.
Han Xuan picked an iron sword, at this time the forging technique was already mature, and the sharpness of the iron sword was a little better than that of the copper sword. Han Xuan suddenly thought of the steel filling method, if he used it, he would definitely be able to create a tougher and sharper sword, now the main thing is to practice kung fu well, and those things will be talked about later.
Han Hao danced a set of swordsmanship in front of Han Xuan, and then asked Han Xuan to imitate it again, pointing out the problems with his moves. Later, Han Hao taught him how to exert his strength, how to match his body and so on. I studied this for more than a month.
