On September 25, the sea surface of the stormy sea finally calmed down after half a month, and three consecutive torrential rains brought enough moisture to the dry land along the coast, and the sky became blue and clean again, and the sun brought life to the earth.

In the auspicious morning, a fleet of six 300-ton ships and two 300-ton warships, loaded with exquisite goods and military equipment produced in Zhushan, sailed out to sea with the help of the south wind blown by hunting in the last few days, and headed east along the coastline of the Jiaodong Peninsula.

The fleet will sail directly to Sanhan, thousands of miles to the east, according to unfamiliar charts, Sinan and sextants, and make short stops to establish contacts and try to trade, and then take most of the goods and the official letter of the Langya Kingdom north to Liaodong.

Liu Cun and Wang Qi and others, who rushed to see them off, stood on the dock and waved goodbye to Lu Jiu, the caravan manager on the battleship, Bao Ji, the captain of the navy, Liu Ye, Guan Ning, Xu Ci, and Mi Feng, a doctor of Langya Academy, and Mi Feng of the Mijia Firm.

Wang Qi looked at the fleet that could no longer see the outline clearly, and said to Liu Cun with a sigh that he didn't expect another year to pass in a blink of an eye.

Qin Yi and Xu Sheng were deeply curious about the armor and weapons and equipment of the navy, which were very different from the infantry cavalry, and found the navy also very attractive for the first time.

On the way back to Xiahe City, Liu Cun dismounted twice and entered the field, chatting with the villagers who were farming, asking them how the harvest was. How's life going? Every time the villagers recognized him, they were so excited that they knelt down and saluted, frequently thanking the Lord for his kindness and care, and crying like tears and nagging vigorously, no matter how they pulled it, Liu Cun no longer dared to get off the horse.

Wang Qi and his guards were deeply moved, but Liu Cun lamented for the peasants' stubborn and backward farming concepts, and the slow progress in land improvement, sowing of improved seeds, and the promotion of various kinds of cultivation once again became a difficult problem that Liu Cun had to face.

This year's harvest of more than 200,000 mu of late rice did not meet Liu Cun's expectations, but the average yield of 250 catties per mu of newly opened fields still brought great joy to more than 50,000 people, hearing that the township Qiangfu, township Zuo and the village were reading out Liu Cun's edict to exempt grain payment, tens of thousands of people were so happy that they danced with their hands, and every household burned incense and knelt down to pray to the heavens and the gods for the benevolent lord Liu Cun, and then put greater enthusiasm into the labor of fertilizing the land and grabbing winter wheat.

Liu Cun no longer worries about the hunger of nearly 60,000 people, with the late rice harvest and the sideline assistance of raising chickens, ducks, fishing, and shrimp, and with land, farm tools, and housing, his father and fellow villagers have survived the difficulties and no longer need his relief.

It can be said that Liu Cun's bold plan for the resettlement of displaced people is basically a success, and when the city is completed next month, the hundreds of thousands of acres of newly reclaimed land in the surrounding areas will be planted with winter wheat for the last season, and the 60,000 people who have gathered inside and outside the city will have hope, and Liu Cun's burden will be greatly reduced, and by this time next year, he will be able to accept the displaced people again as planned, and finally achieve the first phase of the goal of "reaching 150,000 people in Zhushan, Tongcheng, and Huangdao within two years" set by Liu Cun and his henchmen Wenwu.

The reason why Liu Cun recalled Wang Qi, who was sitting in Dongguan, was because the expansion of the army needed to be presided over by Wang Qi, who had rich experience, and the total number of conscripts was 5,000, including one cavalry and four infantry, and training would begin immediately after the full force was full.

The 6,000 cavalry cavalry, which had been training in the northern military camp of Xiahe for nearly five months, had already left for Dongguan and Dong'an counties five days ago, where they joined up with the 9,000 officers and men stationed in Dongguan and Dong'an counties, and were organized into two cavalry units and 12,000 infantry.

For the 15,000 officers and soldiers who are about to go into battle, as well as the two young generals Yan Shen and Zhai Yue, Liu Cun has an ulterior goal in his heart, that is, to let the two young generals lead the 15,000 officers and soldiers who are equally young, and constantly temper them through actual combat, so as to fight a truly strong army with rich experience, even if half of them are left in the end, Liu Cun is also satisfied.

After the various units are assembled, Liu Cun will summon all the officers who participated in the battle at or above the level of the team to sum up the lessons and lessons, re-examine the gains and losses of each battle, and then continue to cross the border to attack the various Yellow Turbans entrenched in Taishan County in the form of round battles, so that the troops under his command can always bear the pressure of war, and obtain greater territory and political benefits through continuous suppression of bandits.

There is another point that Liu Cun can only do but can't say, through the unscrupulous and uninterrupted cross-border suppression of bandits, he shows his strength and determination from time to time, so that the powerful families and those dormant heroes in various places have scruples, and dare not easily damage his interests Liu Cun.

After arranging the work at hand, the early winter was quietly coming, Liu Cun was about to rush to Kaiyang Wangcheng to greet the envoy sent by the Son of Heaven to blackmail with the monarch Liu Xi, Mi Zhu and the monarch's letter arrived at the same time: the angel had arrived at Kaiyang Wangcheng and was on his way to Langya!

Liu Cun suddenly had a headache, the current Langya County Commander is Liu Ye, but Liu Ye has gone to Liaodong with the fleet, Liu Cun, as the Dongwu County Commander, cannot replace Liu Ye in front of the angel, otherwise it is obvious that the angel who came to extort once he grasps this handle, I don't know how much extra money he will have to pay to settle the matter.

Thinking about it, Liu Cun could only hope that Wang Qi, the governor of Langya County, and his colleagues in Langya County, who were in the past, couldn't care so much at the moment, and immediately found Guo Tang and Zhou Chong and others to discuss.

Guo Tang and Zhou Chong and others were very righteous, and took the initiative to put forward the reason that "Lord Ziyang was tired and sick, and temporarily took a boat to the East China Sea to seek treatment from the famous doctor Hua Tuo", Liu Cun was immediately overjoyed, and generously asked his colleagues if there was anything they needed him to serve?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Chong, a guy who has always adhered to principles and is quite stubborn, suddenly changed his temperament and unceremoniously made a request: "A box of five bottles of Langya jade liquid, five hundred pieces of writing paper, ten catties of toilet paper, plus a set of ink and white porcelain wine sets, a Langya scribe sword, and a pair of cow tendon sole deerskin hiking shoes!" ”

Liu Cun didn't care about agreeing after listening to it, who knew that the requirements put forward by Guo Tang and the other four people were exactly the same, Liu Cun listened to the big head, and counted with his fingers, the total price was as high as one hundred and twenty gold, and his heart hurt so much that he convulsed vigorously, and finally had to agree in a group of guys who took the opportunity to blackmail laughing.

On the afternoon of October 13, the honor guard of the angels came to the Wuli Pavilion in the west of Xiahe City, and more than 40 civil and military officials led by the newly promoted county Cheng Guo Tang and the county lieutenant Wang Qi greeted Wuli and bowed to the smiling middle-aged eunuchs under the honor guard of the Son of Heaven's envoy.

Except for the beardless angel Zhang Dun, who is no different from ordinary people, not only is not a little arrogant, but greets him gently, this famous eunuch who is favored by the emperor is very good-looking, burly, dignified, very talkative, he listened to Guo Tang's greetings and reports, and immediately stepped forward to help him with a pleasant face, and asked everyone to get up, and asked the emperor Liu Ye with concern if his condition was important.

Guo Tang hurriedly replied according to what Liu Cun taught: "Lord Liu Ziyang's head disease is still troublesome, it's okay if you don't make a pain, it's terrible to hurt!" ”

Cheng Bing, the chief bookkeeper of Langya Country, and Neishi Cangci also thanked Liu Ye on the side, Zhang Dun comforted him with a few words of concern, and then raised his head and looked around, and opened his mouth to startle everyone:

"Lord Liu Zijian is not there? The emperor has a decree! ”
