What's more, when the war comes, Ben Gongzi will at least have a small base, and the food produced by the people will at least ensure that Ben Gongzi's troops and family soldiers will not starve.

The people take food as the sky, and when the war is in turmoil, I am afraid that the food will inevitably become a scarce thing, and even a living thing, and now the abundance of food in the Great Sui Dynasty is enough to supply the food of the world for several years. This is also the reason why the Sui Dynasty is now big and blind in terms of prohibiting alcohol.

And when it came to the troubled times, several groups of rebels relied on the warehouses set up by the Sui Dynasty to recruit soldiers and horses, such as after the Wagang army occupied Luokoucang, they immediately opened the warehouse to release grain and provide relief to the hungry, and the ranks of the Wagang army also developed rapidly, soaring to hundreds of thousands in a short period of time. Li Mi also ordered the construction of Xingluo City, which was surrounded by forty miles, and expanded Luokoucang several times. The Wagang army established a peasant regime here, and Li Mi established himself as the Duke of Wei.

As one of the four major granaries of the Sui Dynasty, Luokou Warehouse has a total of 3,000 cellars, each cellar stores 8,000 quintals of grain, and thousands of officers and soldiers are set up to defend the granary. According to this record, Luokoucang could hold about 24 million quintals of grain, making it the largest granary in the country at that time.

On the edge of Luoyang, there is still a Hanjia warehouse, which has more than 400 kilns and a grain storage capacity of more than 5.8 million stones

The four warehouses have a total reserve of more than 50 million stones, and these granaries were eventually owned by those warlords as their capital to recruit soldiers and horses.

Ben Gongzi has never done the grain business, but he knows a little bit, since those rebel leaders in history relied on food to recruit troops and horses, then Ben Gongzi can also do this?

When this son becomes the lord of a county, he will buy a large amount of grain, and make a warehouse to prevent disasters in the name of a disaster, which can actually lay the foundation for his future recruitment.

The more I thought about it, the more proud I became, and I was so excited that I almost couldn't sleep, so I quickly spread out the paper, picked up the short bamboo tube that filled the ink, shook it, and began to write down my ideas and goals with a quill pen. Because, Yang Xuangan didn't have half a year, and he was afraid that he was about to rebel

When the time comes, my uncle will be degraded to Jiaozhi, if this son is stopped by a way, he can ask his uncle to look for Champa rice in Jiaozhi, this kind of thing is definitely a high-yield goods, with food, there is everything. Wow ha......

That night, in the sleep of this son, there was a field with a yield of 10,000 catties per mu, and this son happily rolled on the rice ears on those heavy cushions, and rolled until he got up in the morning, so that Lao Tzu didn't sleep well all night, and his whole body rolled painfully

Well, this son has to calculate carefully, Yang Xiong's old guy has returned to Chang'an, find a time, talk to this old man, and probe his tone by the way.

Two months, two months have passed, and the cold wind has become so weak, and the snow has shown signs of melting. On the martial arts training ground, those soldiers who were full of energy were lining up in a neat line for queue practice.

Two months have passed, and the behavior of these fellows has become more and more present, whether it is left or right or backward, and there is no longer the same chaos as at the beginning.

The five-kilometer weight training every morning has reached the maximum weight, and after running 20 laps, it is no longer like the first few days, lying on the ground like a pack of dead dogs panting.

"Childe, look at these torturers, after two months of polishing, they have faded away from the ruffians and laziness of the past few years, and finally have the appearance of a family soldier." Li Yan stood beside me, his tall and burly body was a head taller than me, and at this moment, his face with two knife marks showed a faint look of relief.

"Well, in your opinion, what is the difference between these family soldiers and the family soldiers of the past?" I smiled with satisfaction, looked at the soldiers who were in the queue, and asked in a low voice.

"The old man also served as a soldier in the Sixteen Guards, Gongzi, your training method is really very different from the past......" Li Yan thought about it, and still said his opinion, these family soldiers, although their personal strength value is good, they are all strong masters, but since my father was sick, he has never been on the battlefield, so he is naturally lazy.

In addition, my two brothers are two people who eat and wait for death, and they don't want to make progress, except for the people who usually take this guy out of the gang to hug each other, they don't care whether they usually practice or not, and even the martial arts in their hands are neglected to practice.

No wonder I saw this guy that day, with two big shoulders and a round waist, who seemed to be less than exercising, and eating obese, and now, two months later, the fat on these guys has been lost, and the difference in body shape is really big compared to that time.

The important thing is that they have to train every day, squeeze all their energy every day, and let them read and write, now, many of these guys will hang two classical Chinese, listen to Ben Gongzi's teeth are sore, secretly hate themselves for not teaching, prefer to teach them "Analects", fortunately Ben Gongzi took out his father's "Thirty-six Strategies" to educate these guys, this is a military book with a large number of war examples, very reading value and reference value, at least than teaching these guys with "Analects" is much better.

The guy who saves this vote to go into battle and kill the ground is the one who opens his mouth, don't say that he is an enemy, even if he is a comrade-in-arms, he will go crazy.

And the long-term team training, as well as the combat training, have greatly enhanced their martial arts skills, as well as obedience, for this point, Li Yan attaches the most importance to it, thinking that the elite trained according to the law of this son, even if it is an old soldier, he has never seen that team, there is the elite of the current family soldiers of the Duke of Qi.

Hearing this, my son narrowed his eyes, well, I'm very happy, after all, the achievements I made have been affirmed by this old soldier. "Don't praise the old housekeeper too much, this method of training soldiers sorted out by my son from many military books, if there is any omission, if you think there is any deficiency, please tell us bluntly and fill in the gaps."

"Don't worry, son, if there is something, the old man will definitely tell the child." Li Yan replied with a smile on his face.

After the queue drill is completed, they began to put on their armor and practice the skills of fighting, every group of two, holding a wooden knife, catching and fighting, these soldiers wearing leather armor and leather helmets, the wooden knife dance in their hands brings the sound of the wind, every time the knife collides, there will be a crisp sound, and the blood is boiling.

The wooden knives are stained with lime, but whoever is struck in the fortress or poked at the vital point will naturally be regarded as losing, at this time, Li Yan, the leader of the pro-soldiers, will step forward and guide the loser, so to guard against the opponent's attack, how to counterattack.

Although he is over forty years old, once he picks up the knife, Li Yan seems to be twenty years younger, even if he has only one hand, in the face of a strong young man, he is still as agile as a cheetah, fierce as a wolf, and the opponent pounces on him like a vicious tiger, but he is lightly avoided, and he kicks the guy on a horse.

Then he motioned for the guy to continue, and the soldier who was hit by a flying leg in his ass seemed much more cautious, but he was still not the opponent of the cunning and cunning, but experienced and powerful. After three or five strokes, he cleaned up this guy and lay on the ground, and he was unwilling to get up again to fight against the old guy Li Yan. There were bursts of applause and laughter.

"Torturers, give Lao Tzu a good practice, don't lose the face of the old man, don't lose the face of the son?" Li Yan, whose face did not change, slapped the wooden knife in his hand into the arms of a stunned soldier next to him, and shouted loudly.

"Promise" hundreds of family soldiers, in unison to make a promise, actually makes people feel a kind of tragedy on the battlefield. Raising his hand, he found that his forehead was already oozing sweat, well, I was too nervous just now, even if it was just a wooden knife, but the fierce and unparalleled fight still looked so thrilling.

"I can't imagine that the old butler is old and strong, these young people are not your opponents." Seeing Li Yan walking towards this side, I praised happily.
