Chapter 505: Sending troops to Jiangdong

The crowd is also very curious, since it is Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and others, they are all seeing this thing for the first time!

Everybody has something to do! Follow Zhang Jie to dig!

The soil in Luoyang is very fertile and soft! Pull it out in one go!

The first tree bore three fruits, adding up to more than two catties! (Note, Han Dynasty, Jun, 0 jin, 6 taels, 4 baht.) That is to say, one catty in the Qin Dynasty was equal to 252.8 grams today. The Han Dynasty was similar, one pound in the Han Dynasty was equal to 248 grams in later generations! Two catties is equal to one catty for future generations! Each stone is about 120 catties. That is, about 62 catties in later generations!

Hahahaha! Zhang Jie laughed!

Wait until the final digging. The final weighing, a total of 800 catties, (400 catties in later generations)

Zhang Jie knows that this is mainly because the varieties have not been improved, otherwise there are more than that!

And just like that, everyone was shocked!

Xu Shu said: Five hundred plants are 800 catties! If you plant 5,000 plants in an acre of land, that's 8,000 catties! The yield per mu is more than 60 stones!

Oh, my God! I'm not dreaming! (Note: In ancient times, many dynasties counted acres according to 100 steps, and the Han Dynasty did not find a specific number of them, so it was calculated according to later generations!) )

Zhang Jiedao: Yuan Zhi's calculation is not wrong, but planting 5,000 beads per acre of land is a bit dense. In addition, the fertility of the land is also different, and the yield of large-scale crops may not be so high, but even if it is cut in half, it will be 30 stones!

Everyone felt incredible! I can't believe it!

Zhang Jie said: Now that I have this batch of seeds, it will be popularized in the future, and the poor people will be able to live.

Zhuge Liang said: But if it is promoted, I am afraid that the streets will be full of food in the future!

Your Majesty, if you think about it, you can calculate it according to the yield of 30 stone per mu (62 catties per stone in ancient times), and in the future, the Guanzhong area alone will be able to feed all the people of the entire Great Wei. If this continues, people will starve to death, but the land will definitely be worthless!

Anyone who makes wine, raises horses, feeds livestock, etc., may use this grain! Then the problem of cheap grain hurting peasants will also appear! At that time, there may be so much food that it cannot be sold, and it is a pity to throw it away. Thousands of grains have been planted with hard work. In the end, I couldn't sell a few copper plates. That's a big problem!

Zhang Jie didn't think so far, this Zhuge Liang is a cow, he can see so far at once! Even later generations knew that if the grain was cheap, it would hurt the peasants.

Zhang Jie said: It's to guard against this, but Wei Shu is a high-yield grain after all, and it is impossible not to plant it! It is also imperative to promote, and the problem of grain cheapness hurting farmers can be slowly solved, and although the grain is high-yielding, the taste is not very good. Eating too much is boring.

There were a few that were broken just now. Let's just pick a few and cook them! Look at what this grain tastes like!

Come on, take these bad fruits and cook them! I want to share it with all Aiqing!

Promise!

It didn't take long to cook, and it looked like five or six catties. Zhang Jie took a broken one. Take a bite first!

Dao: It tastes good! Zhu Aiqing also try!

Since there are many people, only a little bit is eaten per person!

Tian Fengdao: This is better than wheat! Powdery, glutinous. I think I can eat every meal!

Everyone thought it was delicious!

Zhang Jie thought to himself, you are a turtle. You can stand sweet potatoes for dinner.

Zhang Jiedao: Okay! These are all seeds, and if you want to eat them, you will have to wait until next year! I'll give you a full meal next year. When the time comes, you must remember today's words!

After the winter, Zhang Jie ordered Zhuge Liang to send troops from Jingzhou to Chaisang, and ordered Xu Shu to send troops from Xuzhou to Huainan.

Zhuge Liang led Jingzhou's 60,000 troops to fight the Yangtze River with Zhou Yu! In the Chibi, Ulin area of the continuous battle!

And Xu Shu's army of 70,000 swept through Huainan! Shouchun's Lu Bu also doesn't know where to go!

Xu Shubing faces the Yangtze River and Jianye across the river. Chen Deng also built a lot of ships in Guangling! Get ready to cross the river and go straight to Jianye!

And the main forces of Jiangdong are in the hands of Zhou Yu! Jianye has less than 20,000 people!

At the beginning of December, tens of thousands of troops began to cross the river! And Zhang Jie ordered Xu Shu to connect the ship with iron cables in advance, just like aircraft carriers in later generations. But beware of fire. In fact, this is what Cao Cao used!

In ancient times, there was no gasoline, just cover the boat with wet towels. Wet grass mats, prepare several large buckets of water, and be ready to water the fire seedlings at any time. Not afraid of the other side to release rockets at all. As long as the army comes ashore, the other party will not be able to withstand it at all!

It only took one day for Xu Shu to cross the Yangtze River! Siege of the army!

When Xu Shu was about to attack the city, he saw a female general rushing over with hundreds of people and shouting: Zhang Shimin, you will come out for me!

Wei Yan shouted! Daring! Where's the little girl! No matter how unreasonable it is, Lao Tzu will kill you.

How do you know that this woman will fight when she comes up, Xu Shu seems to understand something! shouted, Chief Wen must not hurt her, otherwise Your Majesty will not spare you and me!

When Wei Yan heard Xu Shu say this, he didn't dare to make a dead move! I can only play with her!

Wei Yandao: You girl doll, don't fight, you are not my opponent, don't stop, don't blame me for being unkind!

Xu Shu was afraid that Wei Yan would play really, so he was in a hurry and said: Wen Chang, this is His Majesty's imperial concubine! It can't hurt!

Yes! Wei Yan exclaimed: Ah! Niangniang, don't fight, the minister doesn't dare to be rude to you! If you do this again, I'm afraid I'll hurt you!

Hum! I'm not a concubine! If you want to fight, you will fight, and don't talk nonsense!

Wei Yan, retreat with one move, and run away on horseback. Damn, Wei Yan is not stupid, the world will be unified immediately, and if he hurts the imperial concubine at this time, isn't that looking for death? If it was before, it would be better to say, after all, Zhang Jie wants to employ people, and it is impossible to smelt the crime! But now it's different! The unification of the world means that the swords and guns are put into storage, the horses are put in Nanshan, and there are many masters who kill heroes! Wouldn't it be stupid to make excuses for him again?

Sun Ren saw that Wei Yan ran away! If she didn't chase after her, she also understood that if Wei Yan hadn't released the water, she would have died a long time ago!

Xu Shu said: The minister has seen Niangniang, but the minister acted on orders, offended Niangniang, and hoped to forgive the sin. Now Niangniang should also understand that His Majesty's unstoppable domination of the world is unstoppable, for the sake of the people of Jiangdong, and ask Niangniang to persuade King Wu to give up resistance. Your Majesty will not blame him!

The minister will stop the army today! Come back tomorrow at noon! Please forgive me!

After speaking, Xu Shu led the troops to camp in the east of Jianye City!

Jianye, inside the palace of King Wu! King, now Xu Shu has come to the city. Let's go for it too! If you don't surrender again, it will only increase the number of casualties. Doesn't work anymore! Gu Yongdao!

Sun Quan was also a little anxious, and said: There are still 20,000 soldiers in the city. Why can't we fight again! Zibu, you talk about it!

Zhang Zhaodao: Hey! Now Xu Shu has 70,000 horses, just outside the city! I can't keep it for long. The lord and Zhang Jie have in-laws!

Princess Sun is Zhang Jie's concubine, and Zhang Jie will not treat the lord badly. Why didn't the lord surrender?

Even if it is held for a while, it will not last long, and the old minister is still worried that someone will open the city gate without permission! At that time, the lord will be even more passive!

Sun Quan was a little desperate, and glanced at Lu Su, at this time, Lu Su didn't know what to say, the fool understood that he couldn't keep it. Sun Quan actually understands that without the Yangtze River blocking, Jianye will not be able to hold it. It's just a little unwilling!
