"Hehe, I'm bored over there, and when I see you here, I'll come and take a look."

Mu Qingli smiled, a little unsure of what to say, this handsome young man seems to be a little obsessed with her, wouldn't it be ...... Mu Qingli shuddered and silently moved to the side.

Zhao Ziyang didn't notice Mu Qingli's abnormality at all, and he asked, "By the way, I'm going to Pingcheng tomorrow, do you want to go together?" ”

Mu Qingliqi said: "What is this Pingcheng?" ”

"Pingcheng is the largest granary of our Zhendong Army, although the fields of the entire Weizhou and Yucheng are military fields, but the output of Pingcheng alone accounts for sixty percent of the military grain of our Zhendong Army, and it is the food vein of our Zhendong Army." Zhao Ziyang replied proudly.

Hearing Zhao Ziyang say this, Mu Qingli's heart moved: "I want to go, but my leg is ......."

Zhao Ziyang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I'll take you on a horse." ”

Mu Qingli nodded and said, "It's okay, then I'll go for it." She won't admit that she is tired of being in this cold gate.

"Why do you dance for a while, Ziyang, you are going to abduct our battalion commander?" Shi Nian, who was sweating profusely, returned to Mu Qingli and sat down, raising his eyebrows.

Zhao Ziyang poked Shi Nian angrily: "You don't pretend, you have to go to Pingcheng to collect grain at this time of year, Mu Qing is the commander of the reserve battalion, so naturally he has to go." ”

Shi Nian laughed and teased: "Forget it, this Mu Qing is also a battalion commander for nothing, if you don't have to do everything, you can go, anyway, it won't help you in this way." ”

Mu Qingli picked up the chopsticks and knocked the back of Shi Nian's hand hard, rolling his eyes: "I don't know what to say." ”

"Yes, yes, I don't know." Zhao Ziyang raised his eyebrows as Shi Nian learned, and responded.

The Mid-Autumn Festival bonfire party gradually came to an end in the noise of the Zhendong Army.

Early the next morning, Mu Qingli was woken up by Zhao Ziyang and went to Pingcheng.

As he gradually moved away from Hanmen Pass and stepped into the boundary of Pingcheng, Mu Qingli finally understood why Pingcheng was known as the land of grain for the Zhendong Army.

Hanmen Pass is arid, and affected by the salt lake, there are few large areas of farmland, and Pingcheng is a plain, at a glance, you can see patchwork fields everywhere, and Mu Qingli's original memory, those overgrown and deserted land is very different.

This is the difference between turbulent times and stability. Mu Qingli sighed.

In the endless field, only a short crop of wheat stalks remains, indicating that the harvest has been completed.

"How much grain will you be able to harvest this year?" Mu Qingli sat behind Zhao Ziyang and asked curiously.

Zhao Ziyang's face showed a rare solemnity, he pondered for a while, and replied, "It is estimated that thirteen million catties." ”

Mu Qingli quickly calculated that according to the daily consumption of about two catties of grain per person, the Zhendong Army has 100,000 people, and the daily consumption of 200,000 catties is 6 million catties a month, and if the output value of Pingcheng accounts for 60% of the total, the grain that can be collected this year is about 21 million catties, which is just enough for the Zhendong Army to eat for more than three months.

Mu Qingli was stunned after calculating the results, "Is the grain we harvested this time half a year or a year?" ”

Zhao Ziyang smiled bitterly: "Naturally, it is a year." ”

Mu Qingli's breath stagnated. She knows that the entire grain stock of the Zhendong Army is now three months' amount, plus this harvest, they can only support it for half a year, and at most by February next year, they will face a food shortage crisis!

Zhao Ziyang looked into the distance, his eyes were heavy: "This year's wind and rain are smooth, the harvest has been calculated, the drought of the previous year, the locust plague last year, the total amount of grain harvested in those two years is not as much as this year, if it were not for this, the grain stock of our Zhendong Army would not be less and less." ”
