In the evening, the generals came one after another and walked into the county guard's mansion.

Wine and meat had already been laid out in the hall, and in the middle was a whole golden roasted whole sheep.

"Haha, the general is back, Yun Chang misses it very much", the first to arrive was Guan Yu.

Lu Bu stood up and greeted him, his hands crossed with Guan Yu's arms, "I haven't seen you for a few months, Yun Chang is a little burly and strong."

"In the past few months, I have followed Wen Yuan to train soldiers every day, smelling chickens and dancing to practice swordsmanship, my body has indeed grown a little stronger, and the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in my hand has become even more hungry and thirsty", Guan Yu said.

"If you want to say that you are hungry and thirsty, I'm afraid no one is more hungry and thirsty than me", the two people who came to the door were Zhou Cang and Zhang Liao.

Dian Wei stood up with his chest straight, "If you are really hungry and thirsty, I am willing to learn from you."

Zhou Cang glanced at Dian Wei's increasingly vigorous body, and quickly retreated behind Zhang Liao, "This hunger and thirst are unbearable, you guy will definitely not understand, hurry up and play."

Everyone looked at each other and laughed.

Not long after, Yue Fei, Luo family father and son, Li Guang, Guo Prison, Xi Zhicai, Wang Ping and others walked into the hall one after another.

"Everyone, please sit down, I won't see you for a few months, everyone will be fine," Lu Bu said.

"Haha, General Tuo's Hongfu, everything is normal in Wuyuan County, nothing special happened", Xi Zhicai said.

"Yes, the general is out of the house, and he is not accompanied by my brothers, which makes everyone very worried", Zhang Liao said.

Zhou Cang couldn't wait to take a sip of wine, and said preemptively, "Yes, Wen Yuan and I originally planned to go to Luoyang City to find the general."

"Let the brothers worry, come, let's all have a drink together, have a good drink tonight, and talk about business tomorrow", Lu Bu said happily.

It is rare for everyone to get together, and Lu Bu is naturally very happy when he returns.

But the little guy at the door was busy, and one jar after another of wine kept moving into the hall.

It wasn't until late at night that the generals dispersed.

Lu Bu led Chen Gong and Guo Jia to sit in the small garden, Guo Jia was holding a pot of hot tea in his hand, and said in a concerned tone, "The general has just drunk a lot, drink some hot tea to warm up."

"Thank you Fengxiao, let me introduce, this is Brother Gongtai, a native of Dongwuyang, Dongjun, studying in Yingchuan, I passed through Yingchuan and hit it off with Brother Gongtai, and specially invited him to come to Wuyuan County to help me", Lu Budao.

Guo Jia's face was slightly happy, "Presumably you are Chen Gong Chen Gongtai, who has admired the name for a long time."

Chen Gong's face was a little excited, and he hurriedly greeted him, "Where, where, Guo Fengxiao's name is like thunder, Gongtai has always wanted to get to know Brother Fengxian, but he didn't have the opportunity to meet, I didn't expect to see it here today, and I was very happy in my heart."

Both of them are from Yingchuan, and they couldn't help but chat for a while when they saw it.

Then Lu Bu continued, "During my absence, what is the situation in Wuyuan County."

Guo Jia said with a smile, "All the generals are very cooperative, and with the assistance of aspiring talents, everything is very smooth."

"When I entered the land of Bingzhou, I heard that several counties in Bingzhou had suffered drought and locust plagues, and there was no harvest, and the people were miserable because of the rampant expropriation of Dong thieves, and I don't know what the situation in Wuyuan County was," Lu Bu said.

Guo Jia sat down and said, "During the drought, Zhicai personally went to the fields and asked General Wenyuan to lead the soldiers to help the people dredge the ditches and divert water to irrigate the fields. ”

Lu Bu nodded with a relieved face, "It is really reassuring to hand over the internal affairs to Fengxiao." It is not easy for the people, and in the year of many disasters, we should be more considerate of the people, but it is a waste of manpower to divert water for irrigation, and we can build waterwheels, which can save a lot of manpower, and the extra people can be put into other production."

"Water wheels? I don't know what the waterwheel the general said looked like".

Lu Bu said, "This waterwheel, also called the sky crane, is three feet high, and is supported by an axle with 24 wooden spokes, which spread out in a radial shape. Each spoke is topped with a scraper and bucket.

The scraper scrapes the water, and the bucket fills the water. The river rushed, slowly turning the spokes with the inertia of the movement of the water potential, and one by one the buckets filled with river water were lifted up step by step. At the top, the bucket is naturally tilted, injecting water into the aqueduct and flowing into the irrigated farmland, so that you don't have to waste a lot of manpower to irrigate the farmland, and tomorrow I can draw a drawing, and you can send someone to build it, try it out first, make sure there are no problems, and then put it into production and use in large quantities."

Chen Gong said, "The general is really well-informed, such things can be created, if this is the case, we can indeed save a lot of manpower."

Guo Jia continued, "There is indeed a tricky thing to tell the general at the moment, when the general left, he told me to recruit a large number of soldiers, and I have recruited 20,000 soldiers according to the general's orders, with Zhang Liao and Zhou Cang leading 6,000 troops to form an infantry battalion, General Luo Yi and General Luo Song leading 6,000 troops to form a spear battalion, and General Li Guang and General Guo Prison leading 4,000 troops to form an archery battalion.

General Yue Fei led 2,000 troops to form the Yuejia Army.

Due to the high cost of war horses, General Guan Yu led 2,000 troops to form a cavalry battalion, of which the Golden Fire Cavalry was temporarily led by General Guan Yu, Wei Wushu, and the White Robe Army was divided into General Li Guang for management."

Lu Bu was overjoyed in his heart, "This is very good, Feng Xiaozhen is a god, and in just a few months, he helped me form an army of 20,000."

"Although the army is there, but the daily expenses of 20,000 soldiers are also frighteningly large, in just a few months, our granary has been empty, some time ago I spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy hundreds of carts of grain, and now there is not much left. In addition, the soldiers had not eaten meat for many days, and there were many complaints in their hearts, and when they trained the soldiers, they were not as powerful as before.

Although the generals did not say anything, they could also see that they were dissatisfied in their hearts."

Lu Bu nodded with a deep face, "That's true, it's easy to recruit soldiers and it's hard to raise soldiers, in the past, when we were a few hundred people, we really didn't need much food, but now there are more than 20,000 mouths, which is enough to eat a poor county."

"The general doesn't need to worry, we can implement the tuntian system in the army," Chen Gong began.

Tuntian system?

Lu Bu vaguely remembered that there was something about it in the history books, but he didn't know how to make this tuntian system.

Looking at Lu Bu and Guo Jia's puzzled expressions, Chen Gong continued, "The tuntian system, generally speaking, is to connect soldiers and peasants, fight wars in wartime, tuntian in leisure time, reclaim wasteland, and solve the problems of military food and military salary. We can take the barren and ownerless farmland into the possession of the state, and organize the large number of displaced people recruited into groups according to the establishment of the army, and the state will provide the land, seeds, cattle and farming tools, and they will cultivate the land, and the harvest will be divided between the state and the peasants in the fields in proportion."

Lu Bu instantly opened his mouth.

In his previous life, he was born as a special soldier, and there was also such a situation in the barracks, gathering those soldiers who did not participate in the battle, camping in the fields in their spare time, fighting in wartime, and solving the problem of military rations by themselves.
