Under the joint discussion of everyone, the talent of governing the county was effectively resolved, and Lu Bu decided to go to Cai's mansion to visit Cai Yong immediately after the dissolution of the military council, and persuaded Cai Yong to help him no matter what.

Now that the problem of talent has been solved, the next thing is the problem of food, now there are hundreds of thousands of people with armor under Lu Bu's account, and the daily food and salary spent is an astronomical amount, if it cannot be effectively solved, except for the 50,000 old soldiers he brought, those new troops and Qiang soldiers in various counties may not want to help him fight, so Lu Bu must solve this problem now, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

Thinking of grain, Lu Bu thought of the tuntian system used by Cao Cao when he settled in Yanzhou, the so-called tuntian system is to use soldiers and farmers to reclaim wasteland in order to obtain army support and tax grain, and its system is divided into military tun, min tun and shang tun, Shang tun is also known as salt tun, is the Ming salt merchant in order to facilitate the border area to pay grain for salt and run the tun, and the Min tun and the military tun are the narrow sense of the tuntian.

During the reign of Emperor Wen, the minister Chao Cuo had suggested that "the people should be migrated to the real border", when Emperor Wu, the minister Zhao Chongguo suggested that Tuntian should be in the border defense, garrison and reclamation and cultivation, from Dunhuang west to Yanze often set up the pavilion, and the wheel platform and the canal plough have hundreds of field soldiers, this method is intended to solve the problem of self-reliance under the inconvenient transportation of the long distance, and can make the troops not spend manpower in vain when defending, it is the idea of killing two birds with one stone, but in the past two hundred years, All the ideas and implementation of the tuntian were limited to avoiding the long-distance transportation of food from other places and solving the needs of the border garrison army, and were not vigorously implemented.

It was not until Cao Cao suppressed the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Guanhai that his advisor Zao Yi became very interested in the practice of fighting and farming, and the integration of soldiers and farmers, and after Cao Cao defeated the Yellow Turban Army in Runan, Yingchuan, he captured a large number of ploughing cattle, farm tools and homeless people. Zao only suggested that Cao Cao use these agricultural tools to reclaim land in the Xuchang area and implement tuntian to solve the food problem.

Cao Cao took his advice and appointed him as the Governor of Tuntian, with full responsibility for Tuntian's affairs. Zao only first returned the barren ownerless farmland to the imperial court, and recruited a large number of displaced people into groups according to the establishment of the army, and the imperial court provided land, seeds, ploughing cattle and farm tools, which were cultivated by them, and the harvest was divided proportionally between the state and the farmers of Tuntian. Later, he accepted Zao's suggestion. The army was ordered to tuntian, and the tuntian system was widely implemented.

After Lu Bu captured Wudu, he also adopted this method, his original intention at that time was to try if this method was not feasible in Xiliang, if it was feasible, he would vigorously implement it in the four counties of Longxi, but if it didn't work, he thought of other ways, but now it is not with him. There was no chance to drag it out, so he told Cao Cao's staff about the Tuntian system in Xudu.

Lu Bu is a language. The strategists under the tent and the generals who knew a lot about the civil system all looked at Lu Bu in astonishment, and they all thought in their hearts at the same time, is this still their lord? Is this still the Lu Bu they know? It is really unexpected to be able to come up with the method of the tuntian system, is this the legendary sound is a blockbuster, and if it does not fly, it has soared into the sky?

Lu Bu frowned. Unhappily, he glanced at the civil and military under the tent: "I said everyone, what do you mean?" Why are you looking at me like this, can't I say it in enough detail?"

Logically speaking, although Xiliang is a poor land, the mountains and rivers have given birth to a lot of fertile land. This tuntian system is just the right thing to do, although it may not be as good as Cao Cao's tuntian ideals in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, but it is a really good suggestion.

"My lord, my good lord, you really solved this big problem, but there is a question below, is this really what the lord came up with?" Zheng Hun, as Lu Bu's chief civil officer, of course knew the benefits of this tuntian system, and in doing so, it was enough to double the annual grain ration, and there was no longer any need to worry about running out of food.

Chen Gong stroked his beard and laughed: "From now on, I will re-understand the lord, although there has been a saying of Tuntian since ancient times, but it has not been implemented, why?" They are all worried that the effect will not be good, but it will cost the people and money, but the tuntian system proposed by the lord today is enough to go down in history and be passed down for thousands of years! ”

Jia Xu sighed: "If you succeed, you can harvest millions of Hu a year, so that there will be no shortage of military rations. ”

Even if Lu Bu was thick-skinned, even if Lu Bu killed nearly 10,000 enemies, he couldn't help but blush at this time, and coughed dryly twice: "This is all what Ben will think about in his spare time, and there is nothing." ”

"The idea is good, but how do you implement it? If it doesn't work out, what do we do? Cheng Yu still poked at the key point with a word, and the plan to make up for the knife made it incisive.

Lu Bu seemed to know that he would ask such a question, and slowly explained: "We provide the land, and the harvested grain is divided proportionally, and those who use official cattle are six officials and four private; Those who do not use official cattle and divide the official and private sectors, so that the effect of accumulating grain for the army can be achieved, although the people suffer losses, but they can have a stable environment, they are already very satisfied, this is the "art of dividing the field"

Lu Bu paused, and then said: "Duke Wen, you can select the talents of Tuntian in the four counties, and the county will set up a general of the farmer, and the small county will set up a lieutenant of the farmer, and give the sergeants who do not have to fight, let them cultivate and produce the food needed for the march by themselves, with sixty people as a battalion, and the tenants and guards, and the soldiers need to pay a share of the land rent, and cultivate and defend as appropriate. ”

Cheng Yu thought for a while, and after feeling perfect, he exclaimed: "Lord, Zhongde worships, if this system is implemented, this is the blessing of the people of the four counties of Longxi, and the merit of the lord is enough to leave a name in history."

Wen Wu nodded in agreement, expressing his agreement with Cheng Yu's statement, Lu Bu's Tuntian system is really a great achievement.

Lu Bu was not used to being praised by them like this, so he hurriedly changed the topic: "The problem of talent and food has been solved, and now there is only the problem of military salary, so how should this problem be solved?" ”

Although Lu Bu does not worry about food or clothing, he is not very rich, although he still loves money, but after learning the lessons of his previous life, he did not do anything to deduct the soldiers' salaries. The year before last, there was a captain who was greedy for the salary of the soldiers, and after being found by Lu Bu, he was personally beheaded in Yuanmen to set an example, and since then, there has been no such thing in the Bingzhou army, not that they don't want to. But Lu Bu has placed a lot of "fine works" in the army, and once discovered, he will never be spared.

Although this has a certain effect, after a long time, it will also "make a mistake" and join the list of greedy ink, so Lu Bu thought of a new way, those soldiers who have been deducted from their salaries can go to the generals to complain, once verified, "fine work" and the captain will be beheaded together. After killing another group of people, there has been no such incident in the state army since then.

But this still can't solve the problem, the main problem is that the money is not enough, some soldiers are more brave, a battle down to harvest more than a dozen good heads, a head half hanging five baht, not to mention those captains and generals, for money. It's all very tight.

When it comes to money, except for a few people. Many generals hurriedly rubbed their hands and cheeks and stretched out their ears, for fear of missing every detail.

Gao Shun stood up and suggested: "My lord, we can send soldiers to find minerals to mint money, and then collect them and store them in the treasury, in case of lack of military pay." You can mint money by yourself!! ”

Zheng Hun raised his eyebrows: "What General Peping said is very true, so you don't have to worry about the issue of military salaries, the more enemies you kill, the more rewards, and if you run out of money, we will make it ourselves." That's a great way to do it. ”

Lu Bu pursed his lips and nodded, his eyes on Jia Xu and the others, wanting to hear their opinions.

Jia Xu thought for a while and felt that this method was feasible, and then agreed, Chen Gong and Cheng Yu also felt that Gao Shun's method was a superior strategy and could be implemented.

Seeing that the strategists agreed with this opinion, Lu Bu did not delay, and immediately ordered Gao Shun to be fully responsible for this matter, and Lu Bu also repaired the book and sent it to the three counties of Jincheng, Longxi, and Wudu, and asked Gan Ning, Zhang Liao, and Wei Yan to send soldiers to the deep mountains and old forests to find coinage minerals.

The matter was completely resolved, Lu Bu felt relieved for a while, and immediately announced the dissolution of the military council, he should go to the garrison when he should return to the station, and he should go to train the troops.

"Hansheng, you stay for a while, I have something important to discuss." After the dissolution of the military council, Lü Bu left Jiang Xu and Huang Zhong alone.

After waiting for the Chinese Wu to walk cleanly, Lü Bu grinned: "Han Shengna, Die'er is about to get married, which means that she can get married, I mean, that Die'er and Bo Yi's Jiang Weilang concubine, do you know what I mean?" ”

Huang Zhong is now in his fifties, there are a lot of gray hairs mixed with gray sideburns, and the wrinkles on his face are also looming, after listening to Lu Bu's suggestion, Huang Zhong stroked his hair and smiled: "In the battle of Wudu, Jiang Wei killed one general and blocked one general, and his performance was good, but he was just ......"

Lu Bu hurriedly said, "Just what? ”

"Lord, Jiang Wei is not Bo Yi's parent, can he call the shots?" Huang Zhong immediately said the problem in his heart.

It turned out that Jiang Wei was not Jiang Xu's biological son, but the son of Jiang Xu's brother Jiang Xu, Jiang Wei died in battle when he followed Duan Ying to pacify the Qianghu Rebellion, leaving his wife and son to be raised by his second brother Jiang Xu, since ancient times, all men and women marry in the name of their parents, although Jiang Wei's father is not there, but his mother is still alive, although Jiang Xu is the nominal father, but has no right to decide Jiang Wei's marriage, unless Jiang Wei's mother dies.

Huang Zhong is a martial artist, and the Jiang family is a wealthy family in Hanyang, and the disparity between their identities is too great, which does not allow Huang Zhong not to worry.

Lu Bu gave Huang Zhong a reassuring smile: "Don't worry, that kid has been interested in Die'er since he was twelve years old, and now he hasn't given up after four years, which is enough to prove that he really likes Die'er, as for Jiang Wei's mother's side, Han Sheng can rest assured, if there is no approval from his mother, how dare he come to me to probe your mouth?" And I told Bo Yi, Bo Yi said that as long as Die'er marries into their Jiang family, his brother and sister-in-law will not only not object, but will treat them like daughters. ”

If his daughter can have a home, he has no objection to being a father, and the Jiang family is also a famous family, so it is beneficial and harmless to marry his daughter to his family, but he did not rush to agree, but hesitated: "Observe for a period of time before speaking, if Boyo is really good, he will marry."

Lu Bu also knew that he couldn't be in a hurry, so he nodded and said: "In the spring of next year, I will use troops against the Qiang people, and then I will transfer Boyi's father and son to come, that kid is a mule or a horse, and when the time comes, you will know when you pull it out!" ”

Huang Zhong laughed loudly: "Lord, don't just think about Die'er, think about the eldest lady, she is not small."

Lu Bu glared at Huang Zhong, snorted coldly, and then brushed his sleeves away, leaving Huang Zhong standing in the tent with an embarrassed face.

"Am I saying something wrong?" Huang Zhong asked himself a question, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't think of a reason, shrugged his shoulders at the moment, and walked towards his big tent. (To be continued......)
