Chen Wenzhao is not unfounded. On the contrary, as a magistrate with no direct experience in dealing with plague epidemics, he should be quite able and good to have such an intuitive reaction. Because he had never seen the horrific scene of corpses scattered all over the field and unburied in Jeolla Province outside of Gyeongsang-do and Naju.

For this reason, An Daoquan had already turned on the red light with Wang Lun and raised the alarm that the plague might be prevalent.

As a person of later generations, Wang Lun still has a deep understanding of similar local or national infectious diseases. As soon as he heard that there was a possibility of an outbreak of the plague, Wang Lun immediately discussed with An Daoquan and others to come up with a set of rules for the whole army. Among them, several articles proposed by Wang Lun were built, and several new imperial doctors were not able to fall shortly, so I believed in the unruly legend: Wang Lun, who guided An Daoquan to perform laparotomy, was not a layman.

Professional things are still done by professional talents. Wang Lun is still 10,000 at ease about An Daoquan and his Huitianying (there are too few people in charge of the scene, and they have not been expanded for the time being). At this time, what made him concentrate was another question.

Let me ask, what kind of problem can be called a fundamental problem that affects the survival and development of a country (group)? The answer is: food, or food.

At this time, on the Hunan Plain outside the city of Quanzhou, Wang Lun, who had put down his military affairs, was taking Zhu Wu, a staff officer with the army, to inspect this fertile land that had been in his pocket.

For Liangshanbo, which has never obtained a stable grain production base above the designated size. This must be a day to write about. If you still have a bad impression at this time, let's compare it to Jeju Island.

After nearly two years of reclamation on Jeju Island, the harvest at the end of last year was not bad. For the first time, the total grain harvest exceeded 1 million stones, reaching a record-breaking 1.17 million stones. That's a remarkable number for a newly cultivated grain-producing area.

However, to keep up with the current speed of development in Yangsan, one Jeju Island is obviously far from satisfying. Now, not to mention anything else, Liangshan's average daily distribution of military rations, rations, and relief grains has exceeded 10,000 stones. The huge surprise at the beginning of the opening of Beijing was put at today's consumption level. The whole cottage is to save money, and at most it can barely last for a year.

It turns out. "Grabbing" can't solve the problem, and Liangshan still has to have its own hematopoietic function. At this time, it is like a sleepy person meeting a pillow, and the Hunan Plain in front of him fundamentally provides Wang Lun with "do it yourself." abundant food and clothing".

Judging from the numbers, the cultivated land area of Jeju Island has exceeded 900,000 songs, reaching more than 500 square kilometers. But the entire Jeolla Province, the Honam Plain near Jeonju alone, has the same size area! In other words, the hundreds of square kilometers of land around Jeonju alone give the Yangsan Group an extra Jeju Island, not to mention the entire Jeolla Province, with a total area of 20,000 square kilometers.

Although the area of a single plain is small, only equivalent to the level of a county in the Central Plains, no one stipulates it. It can only be cultivated on the plains to produce grain. What's more, in the vicinity of Gwangju and Naju, there are also many plains with a large area. Count inside and out. With the development of this Shinban County, the urgent problem faced by Yangsan will be solved.

"If we had come a year earlier, we wouldn't have to spend a tael of our 10 million taels of silver!" Zhu Wu sighed in his heart, he and Wang Lun had almost communicated with each other about the prospect of this place, and both of them were equally excited. At this time, he was distressed that the cottage had spent half a year on the purchase of grain: a full 10 million! Because of the premium factor. In the end, he was able to buy less than 5 million stone of grain and grass.

"This year, 10 million yuan was spent on buying grain, of which only 1 million yuan was spent on our own people. This percentage is too small. I hope that next year's food procurement will be done in our own land! ”

According to the immigration policy set by Yangsan, the residents of Jeju Island have been exempt from tax in recent years, except for forced labor, there is no tax in kind or currency, and the immigrants of Jeju Island are grateful from the bottom of their hearts for the new life given to them by the cottage, and many villages have said that they will give to Yangsan for free except for the food they keep and the food they will sow in the next year.

After Wang Lun learned of this, he said, "The will of the people can be used, but it cannot be abused." We have an okay environment now, so we will follow the rules. When we really encounter difficulties in the future, we will be in the same boat with the people! ”

At that time, this matter was handled by hatred. As a buyer on behalf of the Yamen, he has never done the work of persuading the seller to raise the price, and the business was finally done so that both the buyer and the seller were very emotional, and finally the people of the whole island sold a total of 1060,000 stone of grain to the Xushi County Ya at a uniform ultra-low price of one stone.

"None of the herdsmen officials arranged by my brother in this Zhenban County are simple characters. I believe that it won't be long before this place will become my big granary in Liangshanbo! At that time, there will be no need to be made by those grain merchants and landlords! ”

Zhu Wu is still relatively optimistic about the future of Zhenfan County, so how about Wang Lun? People like Lou Minzhong and Zu Shiyuan, those are all the materials of the central minister, if they can't do a small county order, then they can only say that Fang La is really clumsy.

"He doesn't have to say anything, the key is to compete with God for time! There is a saying: people are wrong for a while, and people are wrong for a year! Wang Lun sighed, and at this moment, a voice came from not far away: "Report!" General Shi Wengong's front line emergency! ”

Wang Lun and Zhu Wu looked back, and it turned out that it was the nearby pro-soldier who was in charge of guarding the army and led a messenger from the Han camp of the Fanluo Army to ask for a meeting.

"Marshal! Our army has already conquered Chungju, an important town in Yangguang Province, a few days ago! Cheongju Castle was also handed over to Hwadutong the day before yesterday. Now that our army is stationed in the city of Chungju, Shi Dutong asks the marshal, can the whole army rest for three days? ”

Zhu Wu saw Shi Wengong asking for a break for the first time, and couldn't help but wonder, "What do you say?" This iron general can't bear it either!? ”

"This ......" The messenger didn't know how to answer for a while, after all, although Zhu Wu didn't have much of a fight, he was also one of the most powerful people in the cottage, and the two main generals of the army were not popular in the middle and upper echelons of Liangshan, and this time he was too popular, so he was a little unsure of the meaning of the military advisor's words at this time.

The person who came must be Shi Wengong's henchmen, but in Wang Lun's opinion, whose henchmen are all his soldiers, not to mention that these ordinary benefactors are all his Wang Lun's henchmen.

Seeing the sergeant's tired expression at this time, Wang Lun knew that this time Shi Wengong was really desperate, if he didn't really can't walk, it is estimated that this guy will have to slam forward in one go.

The credit for conquering the entire territory of Jeolla Province this time was basically accounted for by him, the vanguard. And Yang Guangdao also opened the door to the Yangsan army after this guy successively captured the two important gateways of Cheongju and Chungju.

Who would have imagined that an army composed of the main force of the former Beijing army of Goryeo would be escorted to another fresh army of 10,000 troops, and it would be rampaging on the peninsula all the way, Wang Lun didn't know whether it was said that Shi Wengong was stupid and bold (the Fanluo army without infantry actually conquered four cities after persuading one city to surrender), or whether the powerful private soldiers from all over the country were really basically lost in the meat grinder-like southern second siege battle.

"Marshal, before the villain left, Shi Dutong repeatedly instructed about the pardon order for the surrender of troops outside Luozhou City......" Seeing that Zhu Wu didn't speak again, the messenger hurriedly got down to business.

If you want a horse to run, you have to feed some grass. It seems that Shi Wengong is well versed in this truth, and I don't know what kind of soup he poured into these 10,000 people, and he actually cooperated without any rustiness. But there is one thing that Wang Lun knows very well, this waist, he wants to support Shi Wengong.

"Got it, my military order will be conveyed to General Shi by pro-army scouts! You go down and have a good meal, get some more sleep, and leave tomorrow! ”

The messenger was overjoyed when he heard this, and it was no exaggeration to say that he could fall asleep lying on the ground at this time, and the whole person was really overdrawn.

"Shi Wengong's courage is really too big, for the disposal of such a large Goryeo army, he dares to cut first and then play!"

In general, Zhu Wu still admires Shi Wengong very much, and he has basically never stopped saying good things about this person in front of Wang Lun on weekdays, but when it is time to tell the truth, Shi Wengong has really done a bit out of line this time. Although he was bent on making miraculous deeds, he had never thought about it, if he committed the taboo of the person who decided his fate, what was the use of his great merits?

"So you draft a military order for me, and scold this guy first!" Wang Lun suddenly said something that startled Zhu Wu, but after he and Wang Lun glanced at each other, they immediately laughed, and then Wang Lun spoke again:

"You tell Shi Wengong again, the whole army will rest in Quanzhou for five days with peace of mind. As for his proposal for the surrender of troops, I generally agree, but there is one point, I do not agree to disband on the spot, first unify and organize into a servant army, and let him take charge of it, and then discuss it when the war on the peninsula is over. ”

Shi Wengong's construction is good in many aspects, but the disbandment of the surrendered troops on the spot shows his naivety in politics. If his method is followed, it will not only put many people at risk of joining the opponent's camp again, but will also bring endless trouble to the newly established local government in Yangsan, and these people will be outlaws with their lives in their hands, and it may be difficult to learn to become a submissive citizen, but as long as they make trouble, they are afraid that it will involve a lot of energy in the new government.

"Speaking of Shi Wengong, there are more than 10,000 people under his command, and there are currently more than 30,000 people concentrated in the prisoner camp in Obifang County (former Gwangju), and countless other guys from other places have surrendered troops! How is my brother going to place these soldiers? "The three strange regimes that had existed on the peninsula before were eager to make all the men on the peninsula into soldiers, and as a result, the number of people who ate the severed head meal skyrocketed.

"I just have a rough idea now, and I'll see when the time comes! Ordered all localities to unify and concentrate the surrendered troops in Zhenfanshou County (formerly Quanzhou), isn't Tao Zongwang already landing, he has no shortage of people under his hands, and while he ensures the construction of various facilities in Xia County, he has to show me these surrendered troops! (To be continued)
