Jiang Xinyan is not worried about the increase in population at all now, and if tens of thousands of people come, the couple can afford to raise them.

The couple walked side by side on the muddy road, looking around to see the fruits of their labor, and stood on the top of a hill full of potatoes.

As far as the eye can see, there is a vast expanse of verdant, colorful flowers, flowering potatoes, nori moss flowers......

The stream flows down from a high place, flowing around the mountains, and anyone who sees it must praise the natural scenery.

But all the people here know that when they arrived, it was snowy and desolate.

Only those who came down from the cave knew that there had always been visible poverty here.

They grew up here as teenagers, and they have lived here for more than 12 years in old age and middle age.

In the mountain villages of this era, there were few people who were not bitter, and they were even more exiled.

It is an unselectable fate for people in the countryside to face the loess and turn their backs to the sky, especially in this bitter cold land, where all crops do not grow well.

Therefore, it is poorer and more miserable than the mountain villages in other places.

However, Master Chu and his wife told all of them that no matter how dark it was, the stars would be bright.

As long as they don't give up, as long as they keep moving forward, they will definitely see the light, and now they have seen the light, maybe even earlier.

When eating, everyone will also joke together, and most people like to learn from Jiang Xinyan's words.

Hao Baorong lost to Song Lao when he pulled the seedlings, and when he looked at Song Lao unpleasantly during the meal, he learned what Jiang Xinyan usually taught the children.

"You see when you eat meat, you say that the meat is fragrant, and when you wash the dishes, you think the dishes are stolen."

Everyone knew that Doctor Hao lost to Song Lao, and he was unconvinced and wanted to find fault, but Song Lao was still biting the ribs with relish, and they made everyone at the next table laugh out loud.

Song Lao, who was eating meat happily, saw everyone laughing, but he didn't react to what everyone was laughing at, and continued to work hard to fight with braised pork ribs.

Hao Baorong was embarrassed to say anything more, so he could only continue to eat potato stewed pork belly.

This kind of conversation is also going on at other tables, all of them are playing with people close to each other, and everyone is only watching a joke, and everyone is fighting and having fun.

Soon he entered a state of heavy eating, laughed and laughed when he was full, and went out to work after taking a break from tea.

Because, the paddy fields are still a little cold, and Jiang Xinyan gives the soldiers half a catty of grain soju every day to drive away the cold.

Children and women drank snow lotus juice and occasionally a bowl of peach juice, and life was very pleasant.

They were full of joy in the castle, and although they worked every day, they ate and drank well and were full of energy.

The king of Zhenbei, who was far away at the border pass, was in a bad mood, and the person who came to trade with Beiyue this time was not the third prince Uliger.

This time the person who came was the second son of the queen, the second prince Wuli Green, and the second brother of the sixth princess Wuli Gaoyu.

The brother and sister came with 10,000 horses, 10,000 cows, and 10,000 sheep to trade sincerely.

But when the sixth princess Wuli Gaoyu didn't see Chu Lixuan, she lost her temper and refused to trade.

The second prince is also the lord of a favorite sister, since Gao Yu refuses to trade, he also does not agree to negotiate a deal with the king of Zhenbei.

King Zhenbei saw that Beiyue was full of sincerity this time, so he could only send Bingluo to send a letter to Chu Lixuan quickly.

Why do you say you are sincere? How many war horses are there in Dongchengguo? There were less than 10,000 horses in total.

Not to mention that Dongchen's war horses are compared with North Vietnam, which is rich in horses, even Western Chu, which is also a farming country, the lack of Dongchen war horses is even greater than that of Western Chu.

Years ago, the Zhenbei army of the king of Zhenbei, with more than 500,000 and 2,000 people, had less than 10,000 war horses, and at most there were only 15,000 war horses.

This was the best equipped unit of Dongchen War Horses, because its garrison was close to North Vietnam, which was rich in horses.

It had the advantage of being close to the water, but by the end of last year, after suffering a defeat, it had been reduced to only 5,000 horses.

Years later, the king of Zhenbei led the soldiers to take away more than 1,000 horses to join Chu Lixuan, and the war horses left in Youzhou City were slaughtered and eaten by He Jianjun.

Now, there are more than a thousand war horses left in the Zhenbei Army!

From the number of horses and the cost of war horses every year, it can be seen how difficult it is for the cavalry of Dongchen Kingdom to win battles.

War horses occupy a very important position in ancient military equipment, and their expenditure accounts for a large proportion of military expenditure.

Chu Lixuan is quite accomplished in Dongchen military science, because he has won the most battles, and his 500,000 Chu family army has only 10,000 war horses at most.

He summed up the sixteen advantages of cavalry and spoke highly of the cavalry's ability to maneuver in war, and cavalry played a very important role in warfare at that time.

In addition to being equipped with cavalry as war horses, military horses can also be transported, and orders and information cannot be delivered.

Therefore, the ancients said: "The first military is as good as the horse government", "The horse cannot win the emergency by galloping", and said: "The horse is the foundation of the soldier." "You can't use a soldier without a horse."

War horses were so important in the war, but very few were produced in the ruling area of Dongchen, on the contrary, North Vietnam, which confronted Dongchen.

Animal husbandry is relatively developed, the source of war horses is sufficient, the source of Dongchen war horses is insufficient, and the number of equipment is often insufficient.

Although each battle is very hard, the Dongchen generals are brave and good at fighting, and they have not lost territory before this year.

Third Uncle Cheng didn't expect that it would be disadvantageous, so he sat in the dilapidated courtyard of Dahe Town and asked the two people beside him: "Sixth Prince Chu, Brother Ping, what do you think?" ”

Cheng Sanshu's two sons, the eldest son Cheng Xianping is eighteen years old, he has been smart and clever since he was a child, but he was born at the wrong time and has been buried in this mountain.

The youngest son, Cheng Xian'an, is sixteen, who does not like to study literature but loves to practice martial arts, and was recommended to Zhao Yu by Wang Ergou, and now he is very liked by Zhao Yu.

"Third Uncle Cheng, just call me Sixth Brother! The princess of the North Vietnamese deliberately made things difficult for us, but we don't have to worry, their horses, cattle and sheep also have to graze, so let them take care of the North Vietnamese. ”

Chu Liu'er was originally a smart person, and following Chu Lixuan and his wife, both in force and intelligence, had increased a lot.

Cheng Xianping also thought so, "Dad, Chu Ye will definitely not blame us, what we have is food to eat, just sit here and wait, and don't beg them." ”

Third Uncle Cheng was able to be favored by Li Futai at a glance, naturally he was outstanding, he was bold, and his experience was better than that of Cheng Xianping and Chu Liu'er.

When he asked, he had a plan in his heart, and he just wanted to test the two of them, since everyone agreed.

Then don't blame them, they also know that it is the people of the Snow Wolf Team who escort the food, and the legend is that it can reach a hundred, so they are not afraid of being robbed.

Third Uncle Cheng asked people to send a message to the second prince of North Vietnam: "It doesn't matter if North Vietnam refuses to trade, they have to wait, anyway, they have food to eat, and if they don't trade for a day, they will eat and trade grain, and go back after eating." ”
