Chapter 171: The "Mouth" is Coming

In the month since the retrieval of Feicheng, most of Huainan has returned to the control of the Cheqi General's Mansion to the north near Shouchun, southwest to the vicinity of Shucheng, and east to the vicinity of Zhongli.

However, at this time, Bai Tu received a message that was difficult to define whether it was "good news" or "bad news......

The news came from the area where Gao Shun was stationed in Luling County, which was formerly in the southern part of Yuzhang County, and was now in charge of Gao Shun.

After Gao Shun took office, he did his best to the "Huaiyue" matter and achieved a lot of results.

After the battle armor was promoted to Jinyu, Gao Shun, who had been stuck in the "eight hundred" trap camp commander, also began to improve steadily again.

If there is no "White Rabbit Effect", Gao Shun is afraid that before he is promoted to Jinyu, he will be executed by Cao Cao after Lu Bu's defeat in Xuzhou.

And now Gao Shun has trapped the camp and reached unprecedented new heights.

Originally, the southern part of Yuzhang, for the Han Dynasty, was "the territory on the map", and the actual control was very weak, the Han people were sparse, and the county branches were evacuated......

Zhou Shang's Luling Taishou was just used by Bai Tu to express his attitude, and he did not actually take office, Gao Shun, the "Huaiyue Zhonglang General", was basically in charge of all Luling affairs - although the area is not small, but because of the sparse population, there is actually nothing to do at ordinary times.

The main responsibility is to "Huaiyue", and to put it bluntly, it is to beware of the chaos of Shanyue!

In other parts of Jiangdong, most of the Shanyue are Han people who evade taxes, and even if they have the blood of the ancient Yue people, they have been sinicized for a long time, just because some of them lived in the mountains several generations ago, and they are more ordinary people...... It's just a little more wild.

In addition, in the mountains of the Soochow region, copper and iron ore are easy to obtain, so Shanyue usually casts his own armor to fight against the imperial court, govern the world for the people, and become a bandit if there is chaos.

The Shanyue of Luling is really of ancient Yue blood, and the degree of isolation from the Han people is also the highest, and it is the most unruly and untamable.

Historically, during the Three Kingdoms period, when Shanyue in other parts of Eastern Wu was almost suppressed, Luling still set up a separate "Luling Southern Governor" to be in charge of Pingyue affairs, which can be described as the most stubborn part.

After Gao Shun came to Luling County, he first devoted himself to military training, and increased the number of trapped camps to 1,600 people - it seems that the number is not much, but you must know ...... This 1,600 trapped camp doesn't need a second living person to command!

Moreover, Gao Shun also specially communicated with the local mountain people to train the ability to fight in the mountains and forests, even if all the people in Shanyue were soldiers, except for the only few villages that built the "Guyue City" in the mountains, no village could defeat Gao Shun alone.

After all, the "all the people are soldiers" of ordinary Shanyue are just "the old people and children dare to take knives into battle even if they are in a hurry", although because they have more fishing and hunting than agricultural civilization, so they are rich in force, but they are essentially different from the "all people are soldiers" of the nomadic people who were strong for a while in history.

Only the southernmost Guyue cities, the so-called "holy cities" in Shanyue, can be regarded as the real "all the people are soldiers".

In the eyes of Bai Tu, Lu Su and others, the so-called Guyue City is just a super-large cottage with "Yue Ji".

It's just that Yue Ji, like the nomads in the north, has the ability to "turn into barbarians" - corresponding to the "training" of Cheng Ji.

Cheng Ji is to extract manpower and synthesize Ji to make soldiers, and Yue Ji, as well as several different Ji in the north, can directly make people "turn barbarians" into barbarian soldiers, and the real whole people are soldiers.

From the perspective of war, these barbarians are better at it than the castle girls who extract part of the manpower, but ...... The clansmen who become barbarians will also eat more, and even reach the point where they cannot support themselves by farming independently, and then fall into a vicious circle of "the stronger the more they can grab resources", "the stronger they are, the greater the consumption", and "the greater the consumption, the more they want to rob resources".

doesn't have the stability of the Chengji civilization, but it always uses the Chengji civilization as a pre-collapse damage......

Of course, Shanyue is much weaker than several tribes in the north, and the internal is not unified, most of Shanyue, with a high degree of sinicization, are a combination of fishing and hunting and farming, and are not barbarians of the whole people.

The leader of the ordinary Shanyue is generally called "handsome" or "handsome", and usually the cottage of "handsome" is larger.

Only the leaders of the cottages with Yue Ji are called "Zong Shuai", this kind of cottage is the strongest, and it is also the farthest away from the Han people's settlements, and Gao Shun will not be easily provoked until he makes up his mind and prepares to exterminate it.

After getting familiar with the mountain and forest tactics, Gao Shun took a few of the most popular cottages that he usually danced to open the knife.

The morale is absolutely stable, absolutely obedient to orders, and he is better at trapping the camp of small-scale mountain and forest conflicts than Shanyue, which teaches Shanyue's commanders a lesson.

Let the Shanyue people realize that the new Huaiyue Zhonglang will not be easy to mess with, and then Luling County has also been stable for a few days - at least there is no Shanyue who dares to impact the county seat on the bright side.

However, in the spring and summer of this year, I don't know if it was because Shanyue had a small harvest, or if he simply wanted to take advantage of the conflict between Jiangdong and Huainan to fight the autumn wind, and the activities gradually became active.

There was even a situation where copycats formed alliances and stormed the county!

Of course...... This is not bad news.

According to the battle report, Gao Shun has played a "small wave of consecutive wins" - ten battles and ten victories.

After every battle, Gao Shun can get as few as thousands or as many as tens of thousands of "prisoners", after all, the young and strong who break through a cottage will also send the women and children of a village......

Treating Shanyue's captives, Bai Tu also instructed, or according to the "old rules", draw manpower on the spot, and extract ten times the overdraft at a time, you can basically break the effect of "turning barbarians", and then drive them to Luling Tuntian, but after overdrafting, the strength is relatively small, but the amount of food will also drop to a normal level.

Moreover, most of the Shanyue soldiers Gao Shun faced were purely manpower battles, and there were not many Shanyue soldiers who "turned into barbarians......

To treat these captives who did not "turn into barbarians", Bai Tu also instructed Gao Shun to be overdrafted according to five times.

Anyway, the land of Luling is vast and sparsely populated, and I don't worry that there is no wasteland, but it is relatively scattered, not easy to cultivate, and the harvest is poor.

However, before the harvest in the tuntian, the grain and grass can only be consumed to feed the ......

That's right, that's the bad news - now Bai Tu even wonders if these people are here to eat his food on purpose!

After a small wave of consecutive victories, Gao Shun has gained 100,000 people before and after.

In fact, this is also the secret that Sun Quan can always take out 100,000 people - if there is no shortage of soldiers, he will go to fight Shanyue, and then all the young and strong people he has obtained will be absorbed......

Especially just after the end of the Battle of Chibi, by the middle of the Three Kingdoms, Shanyue brought not only trouble to Soochow, but also a rich source of troops like a wild monster refresh point.

It's just that in the middle and late stages, only the bones that are hard to gnaw are left, and it is really uncomfortable.

However, for the current Bai Tu, I just want to ask those Shanyue sect commanders and marshals - you are sending people to eat my food, right?

100,000 people, still within the tolerance range of Baitu, although the grain in Luling is very small, but Yuzhang has grain, because the distance is far, Yuzhang did not let Yuzhang transfer grain to the north before.

It's just that...... If these 100,000 people are just the beginning, then the relief grain stored in Poyang County may have to be transferred south first!

In addition, Baitu's already tight grain is even worse, and there is even a danger that the "grain and grass chain" will break and directly "go bankrupt".

"Yamagoe...... It's really a problem for me! I shouldn't have been in such a hurry to get the fat back. Bai Tu rubbed his temples with a headache.

And Hefei Ji on the side turned his head to look at him expressionlessly.

If you are not in a hurry to get back the fertilizer, Bai Tu can let Yuan Shu continue to raise Hefei, instead of pulling all the grain and grass away, after all, Yuan Shu is also waiting for a few rains to come down, and Hefei will become that important military town.

In addition, before Bai Tu could even use the trade of the folk wealthy clan to continue to exchange rock sugar for food from Yuan Shuna!

Now that even the front line of Hefei has changed hands, Yuan Shu has also tightened the defensive line, and there is basically no chance to buy grain from Yuan Shu.

After Bai Tu struggled for a long time, he still "wrote" an email to Gan Ning, who was far away in Huiji Shipbuilding.

The above is the strategy of the "knocking" fishing method, for the time of knocking, the skills of pulling the net, there is a detailed description, as long as Gan Ning can go to sea, I believe...... It was very rewarding.

"Knocking" is a bad method of yellow croaker fishing, which began after the founding of the People's Republic of China, using the weakness of the yellow croaker otolith to a certain frequency of sound is extremely sensitive, the fishing boat will be underwater, beating a special wooden drum, and then you can easily catch a large number of yellow croaker under the net.

In just a few years, the price of yellow croaker fell below the price of rice, and poor people who could not afford to eat ate ate it ate fish.

However, the consequences are also very serious, even if the large mesh is used, the small yellow croaker will die because of the damage to the otolith, which can be said to be a real extinct fishing for the yellow croaker.

Therefore, soon after the appearance of "knocking", it was officially banned, only because of some natural and man-made disasters after that, repeatedly banned, until after the change, it was completely banned, but even after twenty or thirty years, the growth of the yellow croaker population has not fully recovered.

It is precisely because of this consideration that at the beginning, Bai Tu did not want to give a "knocking" strategy at all, and would rather delay himself for a few more years, slowly develop and hoard food.

But now that everyone is going to starve, Bai Tu has no choice but to grieve some yellow croakers first.

Yellow croaker, which is cheaper than rice, also lasted for more than ten or twenty years before it was caught and almost extinct......

"The salt works in Pangtong can also continue to be cultivated, and the fish from Ganning's side can be exchanged for grain with the people in the local area, but they can't be exchanged...... Salted fish is salted on the spot and transported to the mainland, and can also be used as an additional ingredient for relief grains. Bai Tu thought so, and also contacted Pang Tong again.

At this time, Pang Tong had already saved nearly two million stone sea salt, and the "magic" was about to begin, and then he could knock out some food from the hands of the wealthy families who wanted to act as official salt......

After cutting off a lot of his hair, Bai Tu felt that the amount of relief food should be able to "dynamically balance supply and demand", but his heart was even heavier - now Bai Tu is just "squeezing" out food with his hair broken, which is hard to imagine...... In the history without the White Rabbit Effect, how many people starved to death!
