In fact, this machine is a large pencil sharpener, which can quickly sharpen a sharpened birch rod into a straight arrow shaft.

The old craftsmen next to him were stunned, ordinary skilled craftsmen can make dozens of qualified arrow shafts a day, but this machine, with the cooperation of two people, is one in the blink of an eye. It's not a problem to make hundreds of them a day.

There is one kind of arrow used by cavalry archers, one is the bow and arrow, the shaft of the arrow is relatively long, and the tail feathers should be added, and the shooting range is long.

There is also a crossbow arrow for miniature repeaters, but the chopsticks are short.

Ma Jun's eyes lit up: "Lord, this machine is used to make chopsticks, and it is estimated that it will be very fast, right?" ”

"This is natural, it is easy to leak out as a civilian use, so don't consider it for the time being. With the increase of our war horses, the demand for bows and arrows and crossbow arrows will increase greatly, and now the arrow shaft can be produced quickly, which is really gratifying. Other participants in R&D are rewarded. ”

Ma Jun was embarrassed: "The villain is ashamed, and the drawings are all drawn by the lord." ”

"I'm just a rough direction, and you'll be up to you to do the details. However, we still have to continue to work hard, and the research and development of the three-bow ballista must be accelerated. ”

The golden autumn is cool, and in the rice fields renovated in the east of Jinan, the yellow, orange and orange rice is bent over.

The water in the rice fields is gradually shallow, and the palm-sized field fish swim around.

This is the rice field of Mintun, and a thousand tunding is in charge of 10,000 mu of paddy field and 10,000 mu of dry land.

In the dry land, sorghum is planted more than one person high, and the big red ears are very rare.

It's just that there are a lot of birds, and hundreds of wind-powered bird repellents scared the birds into not daring to fall.

"It's scythe."

With a shout from the chief, hundreds of people began to harvest with scythes.

The sorghum was cut down, and only the ears were taken, and the standard was only ten acres.

Drying, rolling, a few days later measured weight, mu yield 1,400 Han catties.

Each acre of land uses a pig's fertilizer, more than 3,000 catties. The consequences of sorghum harvesting will not be long, and wheat can be planted again, with two harvests a year, and an annual output of more than 3,000 catties of grain, which stunned the old farmers.

This is the role of fertilizer, Lu Bu also set up a separate breeding department, specifically to select excellent varieties, keep seeds, in order to improve the cause of the varieties.

The propaganda team traveled around the countryside to vigorously publicize the benefits of raising livestock.

The villages under Qingzhou soon restored the scene of chickens and dogs smelling each other.

In order to further encourage fertility and improve the survival rate of infants and young children, Lu Bu came to Chen Gong again to plan to take some ruthless work to promote population development.

"Gongtai, since the beginning of this year, has there been more births?"

"This is natural, because there is no major war, natural disasters have also been rescued in a timely manner, the data reported by the counties, the population has more than 50,000 people than in previous years, reaching an astonishing more than 300,000, and there are a lot of marriages this year, at this rate, as long as it takes six or seven years, the population of Qingzhou can double, reaching 8 million people, which is not counting the new place in Xuzhou."

"There are a lot of people, but more people don't dare to give birth, can't afford to give birth, or can't live after giving birth. I've thought about three ways to see if it works. ”

As soon as Chen Gong heard that Lu Bu had a new idea, since he followed Lu Bu, Lu Bu had not made a mistake.

Lu Bu put forward three opinions, the first is the birth subsidy, but if there is no land at home, or the land is less than 20 acres, each child will be subsidized with 100 catties of millet, and the Han catties are relatively light, and 100 catties is equivalent to more than 40 catties.

The second point is to create a custom called the full moon. But whenever the child is full moon, relatives and friends have to come to deliver things, eggs, old hens, etc. It is equivalent to a kind of folk mutual aid, and everyone comes to give gifts when my family gives birth, and these things can ensure the nutrition of the mother. When someone else gives birth to a child and returns it, everyone does not suffer.

The third point is to train a large number of barefoot men, and train and subsidize midwives to protect the safety of mothers and babies to the greatest extent.

After listening to Lu Bu's three opinions, Chen Gong didn't speak for a long time, and pondered for a while.

"My lord, all the princes in the world, I'm afraid only we will do this, and the other princes, it's good not to think about how to exploit them. Just according to this ratio, I am afraid that if you subsidize 400,000 children a year, the cost is very huge, millet, millet is very expensive, and it takes a lot of manpower to crush from millet to millet, it is better to change it to 100 catties of millet. The custom of the second full moon wine is very good, just guide it more, and don't compare it. ”

"Okay, then according to the meaning of the public station, replace millet with millet. The custom of passing the full moon cannot be compared, and it is done according to one's ability. ”

"The third article that the lord said, training barefoot langzhong, this is probably a long process, the most difficult thing in the world is to cure diseases, even simple diseases also require a long period of learning, mainly because most of the people don't know how to read, how to prescribe medicine?"

"The public station is reasonable, no matter how difficult it is, it must be done. A medical school was set up in Qingzhou, and the world-famous Langzhong was recruited as a master to train barefoot Langzhong in the countryside, not only to train internal medicine, but also to treat all kinds of external injuries. Barefoot, the level is not too high, just be able to deal with some daily minor diseases. ”

It is easy to say that the subsidy will be implemented very quickly, and it will take a long process to train barefoot langzhong, at least about three years.

In the blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the heat dissipated, Lu Bu had a large number of soldiers, and nothing else was brought, only 10,000 cavalry from the headquarters, Cao Xing was the vanguard, Lu Bu and Dian Wei were the rear army, Chen Gong was the military division, and the group rushed to Langya County.

Why do you start building roads in the summer and wait until the autumn to start building?

Because in summer, the weather is too hot, and it is easy to get heat stroke when marching in armor, so don't fight.

The army marched to Zou County, Huitong Guanhai, Guancheng 20,000 infantry, and 30,000 soldiers opened Langya City.

A few days later, the army arrived, and the cavalry and infantry could not be seen at a glance, waving flags and swords and guns. Xiao Jian's face changed at the head of the city: "Lu Bu, your grandmother." How many soldiers can I have in Langya County, and you bring so many soldiers here. ”

The flag was unfurled, the trumpet was in the sky, Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse, holding a Fang Tian halberd, and Chen Gong next to him was holding a feather fan. Dian Wei, Guan Hai, and Guan Cheng are lined up.

Lu Bu arched his hand: "Xiao Junshou, don't come unharmed." ”

Xiao Jian reluctantly returned the salute: "I've seen Wen Hou, I don't know why Wen Hou sent troops to my Langya." ”

"Presumably, Xiao Junshou has also heard that Xuzhou is now under the governance of the general. I hope that Xiao Junshou will be able to respond to the time and conform to the will of the people. This is a great good thing for the country and the people. ”

Xiao Sandao next to him couldn't help it, and shook the big knife in his hand: "Lu Bu, Hugh is rampant, do you dare to fight?" ”

"I can't ask for it."
