"Speed!"

With Jiang Chen's shout, the Qingzhou army accelerated through the reckless mountains and forests, and there was only one goal, that is, to kill Xin Longzi, the dog thief who turned his back on the allies!

Walk like a galloping horse, swift as the wind.

Thousands of Qingzhou soldiers took steady steps and spent three days finally breaking out of the range of Chaoquan Mountain and entering the border of Jiugu County.

But what makes people confused is that many farmlands outside the county have been abandoned on a large scale and no one cultivates them.

In many village wells, there are also livestock carcasses floating in them, making them undrinkable.

Jiang Chen frowned and ordered:

"Zhang Shan, you take Xiao Wu and Gongsun Hu and grab two tongues and come back."

"Obedience!"

Jiang Chen and the Qingzhou Army did not know anything about the current situation of Jiuquan County.

The top priority at the moment is to quickly obtain information about Jiuquan County and even the huge Liangzhou.

Only by knowing yourself and knowing your opponent can you win all battles!

So—

Jiang Chen immediately ordered the school captain Zhang Shan, and he led Xiao Wu and Gongsun Hu to a team of 500 people and quickly broke into Jiugu County.

Soon.

The local magistrate and his wife, as well as the master who was most familiar with the local situation, were all sent to the general's tent.

Jiang Chen's expression was indifferent, and his eyes were slightly cold:

"Where is your Thorn General, Xin Longzi?"

The magistrate of Jiugu County is a Xiliang iron horseman, and he was also a warrior with strong muscles and never leaving the saddle.

The best thing in my life is not martial arts, but marrying the powerful and powerful in those places, drinking wine and eating meat, and discussing how to eat the fields of the poor ghosts in the disaster year?

This fang has only been the prince of Jiugu County for three years, and he has added a full 10,000 acres of fields under his name, and there are hundreds of slaves and maids in the family.

But now, in the face of the ferocity of the Qingzhou soldiers, what is the use of the power, wealth and farm house he has accumulated?

In this world, after all, it still relies on strength to speak!

Fist is the right!

The magistrate of Shichatani touched the meat on his thigh, which was fat and loose, and he couldn't help but cry:

"This official used to follow General Xin Longzi to fight in the south and the north, for nearly ten years, his body has not left the saddle for a long time, and the flesh on his thighs is strong and strong."

"After coming here, it was three years in a flash, and I lived in idleness and comfort, I didn't need to ride a horse, and the flesh on my hips grew, fat and loose."

"Now, I can't even lead the soldiers to resist the rebels......"

The county magistrate of Jiugu sighed, raised his head, cast a hateful gaze at Jiang Chen, his face was full of loyalty, and said in a deep voice:

"Trying to extract information from this official is just a fool's dream."

Jiang Chen sneered and exclaimed:

"What a loyal man."

He turned his head and said to Xiao Wu:

"Keep beating the man until he gives in."

"Obedience."

Bang!

A heavy punch slammed into the face of the county magistrate of Jiugu, knocking out several of his teeth in just one stroke, and blood was dripping from his mouth.

And yet—

Although this guy has been revived, he is also very hard, even if he is hammered into a blue nose and swollen face, he has never revealed half a word of information.

It's a pity that his master has never been so tough.

After being punched by Xiao Wu three or four times, the master poured out the information known about Jiugu County, Jiuquan County, and even the huge Liangzhou like beans poured out in a bamboo tube:

"There are 15 counties in Jiuquan County, and each county has 120 soldiers, including 10 cavalry soldiers, 40 infantry soldiers, and 70 militia soldiers."

"But these soldiers have all been mobilized into the county town, plus the county soldiers, it is estimated that there are 4,000 people."

"And most of the grain was also urgently transported and sent to the county seat."

"Even some of the well water outside the city has been dumped with the remains of livestock, and even if it is cleaned, it will take half a month before it can be drunk."

"The people in the county were released out of the city in large numbers to make a living."

After Jiang Chen carefully understood the situation, he immediately understood the entire territory of Jiuquan County and Xin Longzi's plan.

Word:

Solid wall clear!

The Qingzhou army is a guest army, and the food and water it carries are really rare, and Xin Longzi's move can be said to be seven inches!

Even though the Qingzhou army galloped hundreds of miles in the starry night and arrived at Jiuquan County, it was also in the state of a tired army and hungry soldiers to attack a majestic city.

And the thousands of soldiers led by Xin Longzi are waiting for work.

Jiang Chen frowned and asked:

"Are there no other rivers in Jiuquan County?"

The master smiled bitterly:

"Only the Suganhu Basin near the county seat has a river with melting snow and ice, and the other dozen or so counties are similar to the Western Regions, with well water as the main source of water."

In fact.

Although Jiuquan has the word "wine", the climate is dry and cold, the summer is hot and dry and short, the winter is cold and long, the gravel desert and the Gobi are widely spread, and the place where wheat millet can be planted is part of the basin area.

Almost every year, Liangzhou needs to use caravans to transport a large amount of grain from Jingzhou in the south, and for hundreds of years, all the troops in Liangzhou must have a good relationship with the merchants, otherwise, the soldiers will have no food to eat.

Lack of food!

Lack of water!

This is the current situation faced by the Qingzhou Army.

Even if you have money and soldiers, you can't buy food or water...... Oh, by the way, due to the withdrawal of merchants, even the procurement of medicinal herbs is extremely difficult.

Jiang Chen was silent for a while before raising his head and asking:

"How many criminals are there in the county prison?"

The master recalled for a while and replied:

"About thirty or forty people."

"How many barbarian people are there in the city?"

"A few days ago, Hu Shang in the Western Regions brought more than 100 Kunlun slaves, who are still in the human market and have not yet been sold."

Hearing this, Zhang Baisui's eyes were slightly cold:

"You want Tuntian?"

It is now the 14th day of the second month of the leap year of the Lunar New Year, and there are still 156 days before the "solar terms: Gu Yu".

Although some of the farmland outside the city has been abandoned due to the invasion of the war and bandits, there are still some fields that are lush with wheat seedlings growing tenaciously.

If a group of civilians are forcibly requisitioned, weeds are pulled, fertilizer is applied slightly, and then the legion martial art - Tuntian is activated, a large amount of grain will definitely be harvested.

Jiang Chen's expression was indifferent:

"Compassion is not in charge of soldiers, and righteousness is not financed."

"Since you are my soldier, if you can't even eat enough, then it's better to disband as soon as possible!"

Zhang Baisui was silent for a moment, frowned and said:

"This technique is vicious and evil, contrary to the harmony of heaven, even criminals and barbarian people are destined to be hated by the heavens, General Wu, please be careful."

"Shanren has their own clever plan, Captain Zhang doesn't need to worry."

Jiang Chen's expression became more and more majestic, and when he ordered the master to serve as the leading party, he quickly ran to the human market, which is the so-called slave market.

In such a chaotic year, ordinary merchants have already fled Liangzhou to a safer place to run their family property, and only the most fierce slave traders dare to stay and take risks!

…………

Slave City.

From the outside, it is just a small stone courtyard surrounded by a low wall, but inside the courtyard, it is full of hundreds of people, and it is very crowded.

Most of the clans had the habit of keeping slaves.

Many peasants could not survive, so they voluntarily sold themselves into slavery, and even in the southern zone, peasants wanted to be slaves but could not.

If you become a slave of the family and are treated well, your children can give birth to children for the family, and if you are lucky, you can even give a name and become a concubine, and your children and grandchildren will make a career from then on.

But now, Liangzhou has already entered the troubled times one step ahead of other states, and this human life is cheaper than millet, cheaper than rice, cheaper than cloth, cheaper than chariots and horses......

It's not worth the money!

One foot of tulle is worth ten lives!

This is the truest portrayal of troubled times, and human life is even less valuable than gauze.

Jiang Chen looked at the courtyard full of Han slaves, was silent for a long time, gave up the idea of letting these people go to the field, and then said coldly:

"Let the city clerk come to me."

Soon.

A lean and sturdy man, dressed in a tiger skin, walked out of the small courtyard with a smile on his face.

He is a well-known Hu merchant in Liangzhou, called a slave, but in the face of the strong Wuhou, he is also humble as dust, bent his waist, and said in a very respectful tone:

"The subordinates missed the distance, but they didn't know that it was General Wu who came, and asked the general...... What's the point? ”

Jiang Chen said calmly:

"I heard that you have a batch of Kunlun slaves in your hands, and this general wants it."

Nuge smiled and said:

"The general is really a good vision, these Kunlun slaves, all born in the Little Anglerfish clan, in our Central Plains official dialect, is the Little Mermaid Tribe, both men and women, are handsome and enchanting, I wanted to ship it to Yujing City to sell at a high price, twenty taels per person, but the grain in the hands of the villain, all the rats, had to be sold cheaply, if you want, one or two silver, you can exchange for a Kunlun slave."

"Beauty?"

Jiang Chen was slightly surprised.

"You'll know when you see it."

Nuge was very excited, and immediately waved his hand, and asked the two soldiers to come from another small courtyard made of stones, and greeted the Kunlun Nu No. 1670.

These more than 100 people, all as strong as oxen, black as the bottom of a pot, at first glance, look like they have disappeared into the night, but a mouth, revealing snow-white teeth.

The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth twitched, do you call this thing The Little Mermaid?

It's obviously a black fish into a spirit!

Nuge excitedly introduced:

"Their favorite food is melon and chicken."

"General, when you bring them back, just let them eat for a meal, and they will be loyal to you forever."

Jiang Chen waved his hand and ordered Xiao Wu to send some gold and silver, but he lost interest.

He quickly took these Kunlun slaves and dozens of criminals, a total of 200 people, and quickly went to the deserted farmland outside the county.

"The well water that has been carcass of livestock can't be drunk, but it can still be used for irrigation, Xiao Wu, you take a group of people to fetch water, Gongsun Hu, you take a group of farmers to remove grass."

Soon.

About 3,000 acres of farmland have been irrigated with sewage, and weeds have been pulled out to avoid competition for nutrients.

Everything is ready to go.

Legion Martial Arts - Tuntian!

Open!

Jiang Chen held the hoe in his hand, and used the qi and blood of his body to merge into this most ordinary farm tool, and then, he dispersed into the blood of the Ten Dao Legions, and submerged into the bodies of ten Qingzhou fighters such as Xiaowu and Feng Lebin.

As a transit station, they quickly differentiated into thousands of blood-colored glimmers and submerged into the bodies of thousands of soldiers.

In the end, the majestic blood qi gathered and entered the bodies of those criminals and Kunlun slaves, sucking away the most precious things.

Longevity!

In an instant, the appearance of these Kunlun slaves, who were as strong as oxen, quickly changed.

In less than two or three breaths, the hair is gray, the teeth fall out, and the rapid transformation from youth to middle age, and then into old age, and finally even the skin and flesh are also weathered, leaving only the white bones of Sensen.

And the twenty or thirty criminals, Jiang Chen also cut off a relatively reasonable lifespan according to the crimes they committed, most of them were reduced to middle-aged and elderly people, and there were also a few murderers, who died directly.

It is quite reasonable to fight for life with life.

The remaining surviving criminals also lost the ability to do evil, so the Qingzhou Army paid them a little entanglement and allowed them to return to their hometowns.

Rumble!

The majestic blood that contains the longevity of life is submerged into the farmland in an instant, and in just a moment, the earth cracks and dries up.

Countless wheat seedlings suddenly sprouted and grew as if they had eaten height enhancement drugs, absorbing the nutrients in the soil.

Jiang Chen just blinked his eyes a few times, and Mai Miao's body size soared from about three or four inches all the way to more than one and a half feet.

Wheat is a self-pollinating plant, which usually completes pollination in just two to three days after the flowering stage.

And stimulated by the legion's martial arts-Tuntian, every breath of kung fu is like a day has passed, and the green and yellowish ears of wheat are gradually falling.

It is only a week or two away from maturity.

But—

The bloody blessings brought by nearly 200 human lives have also been exhausted.

Next.

It's the turn of the Qingzhou soldiers to make a move!

The strength of Qingzhou soldiers comes from natural plants and trees, and they also have extremely unique mystical skills - "planting", which can speed up the growth of plants to a certain extent, but most of them are used to plant medicinal materials and accelerate the growth of wheat seedlings, and basically cannot recover the cost.

But in the last week, it didn't matter, a group of Qingzhou soldiers took action one after another, prompting the wheat field to usher in the final transformation.

The spring breeze is passing through, and the wheat grain is fragrant.

Great harvest!

Three thousand acres of wheat fields are estimated to produce thousands of stone of grain, enough to supply six thousand Qingzhou soldiers, and eat them for about half a month.

I have food in my hand, and I don't panic!

Jiang Chen was happy in his heart, but he also frowned, feeling that the world around him was slightly alienated from him.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!

I don't even have the heart to bear the sins for the soldiers, so what kind of general is he going to be?

But what people didn't expect was that-

The next moment!

The attitude of the surrounding heaven and earth suddenly ushered in a 180-degree reversal, and it burst out with an extremely intimate attitude and atmosphere......

"Hmm!"

Jiang Chen snorted, only to feel that the heat in his body was surging, it was the personality possessed by [Tai Sui Canghou], on a large scale, extracting spiritual power from the outer heaven and earth, and ingesting it into the body of Wu Hou.

This is a sign of medicinal digestion!

At the Wuhou level, every time you digest the medicinal properties, it is not only a change in the body, but also a large-scale extraction of external spiritual power!

Rumble!

The blood and qi all over the body have suddenly increased by almost half of the amount of Wei Anguo!

The vast heaven and earth also descended bursts of golden light, all of which floated into Jiang Chen's index finger and condensed into a section of mystical texture.

Calling –

"Meteorite Fall!"

It can consume its own luck to attract out-of-bounds meteorites to enter the Kyushu boundary and crash into the designated location.

Plainly.

It's like the Great Magister, the son of Destiny, Emperor Guangwu of Han.

"There are meteors falling in the camp at night, clouds are like bad mountains during the day, and the camp falls, and the officials are tired of lying down" - the ultimate means of war!

Summon a meteorite!

Jiang Chen was half surprised and half overjoyed:

"It's broken, I'm Liu Xiu?"
