Bai Hui looked at the beans that had stopped putting beans into the stone mill, and shouted:

"Now, you can come up and try it for yourself. If you feel good, please say to the disciples of the Mo family who have worked hard for half a month, hard work. ”

Bai Qi walked off the high platform, and was the first to come to the Mo family disciples who were sweaty and dusty, and bowed: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

The disciples of the Mo family hurriedly returned the salute.

Bai Hui pulled Bai Qi to stand on the high platform, and asked in a low voice, "What I said last night, brother, you have it on your back." ”

"Yes."

"Now, speak. Press yesterday's recited speech. ”

Bai Qi doesn't have Bai Hui's eloquence, nor does he have that kind of incitement, Bai Qi has his own personality charm.

"I'm a soldier in vain, and I'm not very good at talking. But the five and a half cities in Hedong and Dingyang City in Hexi, I Bai Qi and my brother Bai Hui are both the head of Zuo, we manage these six cities and a half land, I Bai Qi said to all the villagers, I will only live better, have more food, thicker clothes. ”

No one responded from the people of Hedong, but several village elders stepped forward to give a salute.

Bai Qi said again: "It's good or not, we'll see at the end of the year." ”

Bai Hui stepped forward: "Fellow villagers, is there any better, the autumn harvest will be known." ”

Several villagers saluted again, and then led all the villagers to salute the disciples of the Mo family, and thousands of people shouted: "Hard work." ”

The disciples of the Mo family helped people defend the city, invented the machinery for attacking the city and fighting, and were scolded by the people of the world and the princes of the world.

Beiqucheng.

Bai Hui and Bai Qi sat in the same room, and Gongsun Long and others were reporting the specific details of the new decree.

"The two Zuo chiefs, we have checked, and there is no conflict with Qin Lu. There are also some details will be adjusted in the process of implementation, the current priority is to gather manpower to repair the canal, with the new style of people to step on the water wheel, then we can open up nearly 100,000 acres of terraced fields. ”

Bai Hui said: "I suddenly thought of developing animal husbandry. Then dig a deep pit with human and animal manure and hay and other materials to preserve it for use in the field, which helps to increase production. Don't ask me why, you can find some places to try, whether there is a higher yield than others, see for yourself. ”

"We believe."

Gongsun Long didn't believe it anymore, Bai Hui's knowledge level was obviously several levels higher than him.

Bai Hui said again: "I ask that 100,000 acres of millet must be guaranteed." ”

"No." Gongsun Long hurriedly got up and gave a big salute.

"Also, the plough of Chu State, each village guarantees three ploughing oxen, there is no difficulty to do, and there are difficulties to overcome difficulties."

"No!"

Millet is the name of the Warring States period, and later generations called sorghum.

After Gongsun Long retreated, Bai Qi asked Bai Hui: "What is planted is not planted, the yield of millet seems to be higher." ”

"Brother, have you ever thought about letting your war horse have green fodder to eat in winter? I've heard that sorghum is mixed with some grass and then mixed with cow dung and can be preserved until winter. I don't know the details, but let's find some people to try, try in different ways, and there will always be one that will actually survive into winter. ”

"If there is a way to do it, then there will be green fodder for the war horses next winter."

Bai Qi recognized this: "That's it, one year doesn't work for two years, you can always try it." ”

Bai Hui sighed heavily: "The king asked us to take half of Hedong County within two years, but Xianyang City does not have enough food and ordnance, and we are bitter." ”

Bai Qi said: "As you just said, there is no difficulty to do, and there are difficulties to overcome difficulties, this is the king's order, the king hopes to get half of Hedong County, then you and my brother only have to fight, and lay down Hedong to repay the king's trust." ”

What can Bai Hui say, Bai Qi has already expressed his position.

After thinking about it, Bai Hui said again: "There is also brother, I don't care about the military reclamation farm of the captive, brother, you have to worry about it." I promise to take our brother's head to take Hedong County within two years, and this matter still depends on my brother's ability. I estimate that there is a possibility of encountering more than 200,000 Wei troops. ”

Bai Qi was silent, this one was a tough battle.

After thinking about it for a long time, Bai Qi didn't think that he could deal with the 200,000 Wei army with his 70,000 soldiers and horses.

"Train first, wait for the opportunity." After thinking about it, there is really no way to do it at the moment.

Bai Hui's conspiracy cannot be used a second time, and the encirclement and reinforcement are also under the condition that there are enough troops, if the Wei army comes with more than 200,000 troops, the absolute power can ignore all tricks. So this trick doesn't work well either.

Bai Qi believes that training an incomparably powerful Qin army is the most basic.

For the rest, wait for the opportunity.

"Hui, Sun Tzu said in the Art of War that if you want to take the land east of the river by going to war, you will definitely not be able to rely on fighting. I thought about it again, and thought that we should stabilize these cities first, train the troops and store food, and when the opportunity arises, we can also create opportunities, just like if we attack Hedong this time, but we can't fight without soldiers and food. ”

"Brother is right, you are in charge of the soldiers, begging and grain, I will deal with the matter here, I want those Wei troops to really surrender, and then go to live in that half of the city for a few days."

"It's okay, but you have to bring enough soldiers to go to half of the city."

The short soldiers mentioned by Bai Qi are another name for the Qin people's personal soldiers.

Speaking of Xianyang City.

Wei Ran can be regarded as a great victory, and he got a map of five and a half cities for Daqin, and the first thing he did after returning to Xianyang was naturally to enter the Xianyang Palace first, whether it was to repay his sister or to the King of Qin, he had to enter the Qin Palace first.

As soon as he entered Xianyang Palace, Wei Ran was stupid.

I saw that King Qin was like a child who had been robbed of candy, sitting by the pond, turning over a roll of bamboo slips and throwing them into the water with hatred.

Seeing Wei Ran enter the palace, King Qin said in a low mood: "Uncle is back." ”

"Your Majesty, this trip to Fencheng made the minister very happy. Your Majesty, this is? Wei Ran didn't quite understand why King Qin's expression was much worse when he looked closer, it was much worse than the expression of being robbed of sugar.

King Qin said: "Uncle, tell me what happened in Fencheng to make my uncle so happy. ”

"Although we only got five and a half cities, we actually got much higher than five cities. Bai Hui returned to Xianyang after the war, but he had already made arrangements. Originally, the minister thought that he was just searching for a few talents in the remaining five cities, but who would have thought that he would scrape the ground three feet, and the four and a half cities that Wei Guo took back, not to mention that there was not even a single bronze artifact, even a complete pottery bowl could not find a few. ”

Hearing this, King Qin's face was shocked.

Without waiting for King Qin to speak, Wei Ran continued excitedly: "This is okay, the door frame, door panel, and even the bricks are all pried up and transported to Beiqu. Among the nine cities, all those who know words, none of them are bad, that is, they are tied to Beiqu City. Wei Xiang was bitter in his heart, but he couldn't say it, after all, we have returned the city. ”

King Qin finally became angry: "He also scraped the widow's Xianyang City to the ground." ”
