Chapter 109: Giving Sweet Potatoes

"What are you talking about?"

The team leader immediately put down Han Dang with some doubts.

I saw that the other party hurriedly pulled over the road map, then pointed to his head and waved his hand again and again, and then drew a real road map to Chang'an City.

After doing this, Han Dang hurriedly knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy.

The team leader, who learned that he had been deceived, was even more angry and knocked Han Dang to the ground with the butt of a gun.

The latter still just kept kneeling and kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Hey."

The team leader said suddenly.

The eerie tone made Han Dang's whole body stiff.

He looked up slowly.

However, what was seen was the black muzzle of the musket.

The next moment.

Suddenly there was a burst of gunfire.

Han Dang only felt a pain in his chest, and then fell to the ground with convulsions.

Seeing this, the team leader and the others immediately left with the road map.

However, not long after the first team left.

The patrol soldiers, who finally sensed that something was wrong, immediately ascended to the small second floor.

Immediately, they saw several generals who were beaten into a sieve, and Han Dang, who was lying on the ground and constantly struggling to get up.

The projectile just now turned out to be impartially stuck in Han Dang's ribs.

Only then did the other party pick up a life.

"Lead the army for me... Pursue... The path to the northwest..."

Han Dang said intermittently.

Immediately, a patrol soldier informed the rest of the town guards and the other generals.

As soon as the latter heard that Han Dang had been attacked, he hurriedly led his army to chase in the direction that Han Dang said.

The team leader and the others didn't know at this time that the danger behind them was gradually approaching.

Five days later.

The five-day time limit arranged by Liu Hong has arrived.

In the past five days, he has almost received nearly forty people from all sides.

In particular, Pan Feng, the general of Jizhou Mu Hanfu, looked for Liu Hong five times in one go.

Every time I came, I wanted to discuss with him and wanted to change the musket.

However, this request was rejected by Liu Hong.

Although the musket was very powerful, the structure was much more complex than that of the crossbow arrows of the Three Kingdoms period.

However, as long as there are skilled craftsmen, they can reproduce the rough way in which the musket was made.

Therefore, the musket is simply the foundation of Liu Hong's life.

However, Liu Hong was a little regretful about the departure of Liu Guanzhang and the others.

Otherwise, he wanted to see what wonderful performances Guan Yu and Pan Feng would have when they faced each other.

Outside the city of Chang'an.

Liu Hong personally went out of the city to bid farewell to Yuan Shang.

"General Yuan Shang, let's say goodbye, and when we meet again next time, I don't know if we are friends or enemies..."

Liu Hong said with some emotion.

Hearing this, Yuan Shang also shook his head with some regret.

chatting with each other for these days also made Yuan Shang realize Liu Hong's lofty ambitions.

The other party's gaze was not limited to the acre and three points of land in Dahan at all.

Liu Hong's breadth of knowledge made Yuan Shang ashamed of himself.

Including the species, race, and so on between different continents, it is simply a treasure.

"Your Majesty, the last general will retire first."

Yuan Shang spoke, and then left with thousands of elite soldiers and gifts from Liu Hong.

A few hours later.

Yuan Shang's army rested in place near a forest.

Immediately, he walked towards the gift that Liu Hong left him with some curiosity.

The emperor of the dignified Han must be very generous, right?

A group of generals also came over with great curiosity.

However, when Yuan Shang opened it and took a look, everyone was dumbfounded.

I saw that the whole car was full of strange-looking plants.

Yuan Shang casually took out a long sword and cut one, and suddenly a fragrance came to his face.

Yuan Shang tried to cut off a small piece of the plant and put it in his mouth and tasted it.

It's also a little sweet.

Seeing this, the generals couldn't help but pout.

"Cut, what else is the emperor, these things are not worth a night pearl sent out by the lord."

"This Liu Hong is inevitably a little too stingy, you must know that without us, there would be no Chang'an City."

"Yes, I thought this guy was such a righteous gentleman, but I didn't expect him to be just a cautious emperor."

Listening to everyone's complaints, Yuan Shang frowned slightly.

With his understanding of Liu Hong, the other party absolutely disdains to do this kind of thing.

It's just that... What exactly is this car?

Just when Yuan Shang was puzzled.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the parchment scroll hidden in the corner.

Yuan Shang hurriedly opened the parchment roll.

When he saw the words written on the parchment, his body suddenly stiffened in place.

Immediately, Yuan Shang looked at the cart of sweet potatoes in front of him with a shocked expression.

He couldn't believe that this was given to him by Liu Hong.

Glancing back at the generals who were still complaining, Yuan Shang hurriedly stopped the other party's behavior.

"Do you know what this is?"

Yuan Shang pointed to the sweet potato in his hand, looking extremely excited.

"This is called sweet potato, a mysterious plant that Liu Hong brought back from the distant sea, which can not only be eaten by humans, but also much better than what we eat."

"The most important thing is that as long as this sweet potato is taken care of, the yield per mu can reach 1,500 catties!"

What?

Fifteen hundred pounds?

This number instantly frightened the generals present.

Everyone looked at the strange sweet potatoes with a look of disbelief.

This thing has such a high yield per mu?

How is this possible?

For a moment, the crowd couldn't believe their ears.

But Yuan Shang would never deceive them.

This also means:

As long as this car of things in front of you is planted, you can harvest 1,500 catties per acre?

"Lord, are the planting conditions for this thing very harsh?"

Immediately, some people think that the planting conditions of such a high-yield crop are also very high, right?

Hearing this, Yuan Shang shook his head slightly.

He said in an incredulous tone: "This thing doesn't need to be taken care of by people, and it can reach a yield of more than 800 catties per mu." ”

"And sweet potatoes don't have any requirements for where they are grown, they can be grown anywhere."

Speaking of which.

Even Yuan Shang couldn't believe it.

Liu Hong would give him such a precious thing?

You must know that food is simply the lifeblood of the people of the world, and the supply of grain and grass for the army is even more so.

If we want to feed a military with strong combat effectiveness, the supply of grain and grass is naturally indispensable.

Yuan Shang is now worried about feeding the food of the 300,000 army.

I didn't expect the sleepiness to send a pillow.

Now sweet potatoes can easily solve Yuan Shang's appeal.

And not only is it productive, it doesn't have any requirements for where it grows.

"My lord... Is this really what Liu Hong gave us? ”

The general who had just slandered Liu Hong only felt that his face was hot at the moment.

Who would have thought that Liu Hong would be so generous that he could give him everything that the army would live in?

But because of this, Yuan Shang was even more puzzled and curious about what Liu Hong would do next.

After all, his food problem has been solved by sweet potatoes, and it is only a matter of time before the army of 300,000 expands to 400,000.

Liu Hongman's full battle is only 100,000 defenders of Chang'an City.
