Chapter 218: We Can't Talk Nonsense
Shiyi was in the southern part of Hebei Province.
Today, it is one of the frontline cities of Han Fu's army against the Montenegrin army.
At this moment, Jizhou was occupied by three forces, Gongsun Chan had a heavy army at the boundary bridge in the east of Guangzong, and Zhang Yan was stationed in Xindu in the north of Guangzong.
Ten miles north of Shiyi City, there are two barracks. One was huge, almost 30,000 people. One is small, and it looks like it's five thousand.
The barracks is the barracks of Han Fujun's army, and the commander of the army is Zhang He.
The small barracks were the barracks of the Qin Ye Army.
Qin Ye's recruitment work here was very smooth, which came from the fact that after suffering from the war in Montenegro, there were a lot of people who fled. Among these people, there are many men whose wives are separated and their families are ruined.
The scale of 5,000 people is the limit set by Han Fu for Qin Ye.
After Qin Ye began to purchase grain and grass.
Large and small vehicles kept entering and leaving the Qin army camp.
It can be seen with the naked eye that the camp of the Qin army is constantly expanding. The number of warehouses in the central area has increased dramatically.
The grain carts were pulled in, and when they came out, the grain on the grain carts was gone, and they had turned into gold, silver, and jewelry.
Hundreds or thousands of family soldiers escorted their master's wealth home.
There are constantly the meticulous works of the Black Mountain Army, the meticulous works of Gongsun Zhan, and the meticulous works of Liu Beijun.
Crazy news has spread throughout the Northlands.
People were shocked by Qin Ye's wealth, and even more shocked by Qin Ye's lack of soul.
The princes of all walks of life coveted Qin Ye's wealth, but no one said anything about the wealth of Yiwu, after all, people had ten thousand reasons to wait. And whoever speaks out appears to be incompetent.
In order to suck Qin Ye's blood, and for fear that Qin Ye would suddenly repent, the merchants were all transporting grain non-stop, day and night.
Therefore, in two days, all the transactions were completed. The grain that has not been put into storage is also on the way.
What the? No one builds a warehouse, it's okay, we'll build it for you.
No wood?
What is this, we sent the wood.
In order to let Qin Ye stock up on grain as soon as possible, the merchants also spared no effort to promote the gifts.
In an instant, Qin Ye sucked 400,000 loads of grain, and what he paid was Dong Zhuo's life savings.
On this day, Qin Ye returned to Yecheng Station.
In the hall, Xun You and the others were all worried, all of them were like mourners, and they looked like they had drunk the red arsenic on the top of the crane.
After receiving so much grain, Qin Ye's military food reserves have jumped to the top of the princes in the world. If Qin Ye prides himself on being a gate valve, it is the gate valve with the most grain.
It stands to reason that subordinates should be happy.
But five times the price of the acquisition, can not be happy.
Could have done more with the money.
Don't look at Qin Ye now that he has no foundation, but with this money, he must take off.
And now? It looks like it's flying, but it's actually landed, and there's no follow-up.
But at this point, the money has been spent, and the grain has been harvested, what else can be said?
But if they could really say anything, they really wanted to scold the lord.
Qin Ye knew what his subordinates were thinking, and he couldn't tell the Supreme Dharma Eye about it. Fortunately, the locust plague will come in a few days, and I believe that Xun You will understand, which is more powerful than any explanation.
Qin Ye said: "I need to go to Han Fu's place." ”
Zhuge Liang complained, "What else is the eldest brother going to do with Han Fu?" Han Fu's grain has already been sold to us, squeezing out our last money. ”
Sima Yi said, "Nowadays, people are counting money at home, waiting for a bumper harvest to harvest grain." ”
Qin Ye sighed, "I went to Han Fu because of the bumper harvest. ”
"Lord, we have no money, and we can't harvest food for a bumper harvest. The lord is still ready to prepare, so let's go to encircle and suppress the Black Mountain Army. After Xun You finished speaking, he said seriously: "In the background of the bumper harvest, Han Fu and the others are all focused on harvesting grain. The subordinates expected that the Montenegrin army would definitely compete for food. ”
"The big war between Montenegro Zhang Yan, Gongsun Zhan, and Han Fu is about to break out. If our army can take the opportunity to take Xindu, it will have a foothold. ”
Qin Ye motioned to Xun You to listen to himself first, "There are tens of thousands of Montenegrin troops entrenched near Xindu, and Zhang Yan's more than 100,000 troops are nearby, so if you say support, you can support it." Under such circumstances, it will be difficult for our army to make a breakthrough in Sindu. ”
Everyone was immediately disheartened, and they couldn't recruit enough soldiers and horses under such a fence. Attacking Xindu is a risky move. But for the sake of the ideal, everyone also fought hard.
"But when the locust plague breaks out, everyone will be short of food. That's when it was completely different. ”
After Qin Ye purchased all the grain, he was ready to announce this matter.
Locusts.......
With the power of ancient science and technology, there is really nothing to prepare for the locust plague.
Therefore, before the locust plague comes, as long as the people get ready on the ground, they are already prepared to the extreme.
The rest is left to fate.
Therefore, Qin Ye is not unthinking about the people, as long as he says it before the locust plague comes, it is the same as saying it in advance. It's just that he said in advance that Qin Ye would definitely not be able to harvest food, so he said it now.
He was going to tell Han Fu about this matter, and through Han Fu's spread all over Jizhou, he didn't care about the people of the Gate Lords clan, and the people could keep some food.
"It's about to be a catastrophe." Qin Ye knew very well that even in modern times, he could not retreat in the face of locust plagues, let alone ancient times.
The crowd's eyes widened.
And said!
It's okay not to say this, but if you say it, everyone's anger will rub off. If it were in modern times, everyone would have sent Qin Ye, the president without a country, to a psychiatric hospital.
This is a disease that needs to be cured.
"I ...... I....... Xun You gasped, his face was red, and he couldn't speak anymore.
Qin Ye's Supreme Law eyes flashed, "It's not a disease, it's not a big problem, send the military division down to take a shower and relax." ”
Xun Yu pumped over.
Jizhou Prefecture Pastoral Mansion.
Han Fu warmly received Qin Ye, and he invited Qin Ye to take a seat, "Now that the general has food and the soldiers and horses have been recruited, when will he go to crusade against the Black Mountain Army?" ”
Han Fu really wanted to see Qin Ye enter the combat area and become a barrier between him and Gongsun Zhan and Zhang Yan of Montenegro.
Qin Ye said: "The soldiers still need three months of recruit training, and I plan to enter the army to encircle and suppress Montenegro in the spring of next year." ”
Han Fu's eyes were full of ridicule, you said that you are a young man, you can't do anything to yourself, you have 5,000 soldiers and horses, and you still encircle and suppress more than 100,000 Black Mountain troops?
"It's fine." Han Fu also sold the military rations at five times the price, and he got the money softly, Qin Ye was so knowledgeable, it didn't hurt to stay for a while.
"Then why is the general here?" Han Fu drank the tea ceremony.
"There is a plague of locusts." Qin Ye is very concise.
Burst~
Han Fu was frightened.
The men, women, servants and soldiers in the hall were all shocked.
The Yellow River is most afraid of floods, and the inland is most afraid of locust plagues.
"How do you know?" After Han Fu was shocked, he was puzzled. Where is the locust plague in the blue sky and white day? Boy, you can't talk nonsense.
