Volume 10 Wind and Rain Mandala Chapter 779 Economic Raiders
The sudden flames of war in Langtian City extinguished Hu Wei's enthusiasm for blind dates for the soldiers in the arsenal, and he handed over this matter to Ouyang Shuixian and Weiwei and Ximen Xue to get it, and locked himself in the study.
Over and over again, Hu Wei kept analyzing Qin Ming's intentions on the military map. The shape on the military map was already familiar to Hu Wei, but Qin Ming's intentions, Hu Wei couldn't see it clearly.
"Qin Ming, what do you want to do?" Hu Wei dropped the pen in his hand with some frustration. On the military map, there are already too many lines laid horizontally and vertically, and if you continue to draw them, you will not be able to see them.
Momiji knocked on the door a few times, then pushed the door and walked in.
"Xianggong, it's time to eat. Momiji said softly.
Worry pushed away the military map at hand.
"I still think about Qin Ming. Momiji hugged one of Hu Wei's arms and snuggled up.
"I don't want to. Hu Wei smiled: "Let's eat first." β
Momiji smiled, "It's time to eat well." In the past few days, you have always locked yourself in the study, and the girl is a little unhappy. β
"That stinky girl. Hu Wei scolded with a smile, thinking of Yaya's cuteness, his mood suddenly improved a lot.
"After eating, I'll accompany you to analyze it again. "Hongye knows Hu Wei too well, and knows that he can't let go of Qin Ming's matter so quickly. If he doesn't figure it out, he will definitely continue to analyze it.
When Hu Chen came out, the family was already seated. Hu Wei sat on the main seat, with red leaves on the left hand side and Yaya on the right hand. Yaya, this girl, must sit next to Hu Wei when eating, she has been this habit since she was a child, and they also spoil her with red leaves.
Hu Wei sat down and waited, seeing the little girl pouting, he couldn't help but wonder: "Yaya, what's wrong, who bullied you?"
"Daddy, you see, there are no greens. Yaya replied.
A question mark rose in Hu Wei's head, and he glanced at the dishes on the table, a small plate of boiled beef, fried huΔsheng, pickles...... There are really no greens.
Yaya is not a picky eater, but every time she eats, she likes to eat some green vegetables, but there is no one at this table. Yaya didn't mention it, Hu Wei really didn't notice that he hadn't eaten vegetables in the past few days.
"Bing'er, why is that?" Hu Wei looked at Ouyang Hanbing. Now the affairs of the house are all in her charge.
Ouyang Hanbing glanced at everyone, shook his head and said, "I asked the next person, and they said they couldn't buy it." β
"Can't buy it?, such a big imperial capital, there are no vegetables to sell?" Hu Wei couldn't believe it.
"Not only vegetables, but also meat, eggs, brother food, etc. Except for the staple food, almost everything else has been cut off. As far as the boiled beef on our table is concerned, "it's all air-dried." Ouyang Hanbing replied.
"Jin Feng?" Hu Wei looked at Jin Jinfeng: "Is the supply of elder brother food in the imperial capital already nervous to this point?"
Huang Jinfeng nodded and said, "I wanted to tell you about this after eating." Since this morning, all the towns around the imperial capital have imposed an embargo on us, and the products of this city are not allowed to be sold to the imperial capital. β
"Embargo?" Hu Wei felt a little big, the imperial capital is a consumable city. The imperial capital itself does not produce any agricultural products. On weekdays, all the farmer's production Lei Er has to rely on the surrounding towns for supply. With this embargo, there will be nothing left in the imperial capital. Fortunately, the grain is transported by water, and it is not produced by the surrounding towns, otherwise the imperial capital is afraid that he will not even be able to eat rice.
"What are they trying to play!" Hu You's anger rose sharply. Dare to play this hand for him" is too much.
Ximen Yufeng said in one sentence: "They are afraid of us and want to suppress our development economically."
"Gone, that's right. Hu Wei let out a bad breath, regained his calm, and said, "Yaya, let's eat first, Daddy will definitely solve the problem of green vegetables." β
After dinner, Hu Wei called all the five ladies into the study, and before everyone could sit down, he said, "Look, how to solve this matter." β
Ximen Yufeng said: "If it doesn't work, we will use force." β
Momiji shook his head and said, "It's not a good way to use force. The surrounding towns are now apparently connected. Although we have a strong military, don't forget that all the towns in Zhongzhou are old military families. With our current strength, we can't wipe them all out in one fell swoop. β
"Momiji, what good do you have?" asked Hu Wei. Solving problems by force is not what he thinks. You can't use force when you encounter anything, and now you have to use your brains in this matter. ,
Momiji said: "When I received the news in the afternoon, I was thinking about it. I think we should be able to solve this problem ourselves. As long as we solve this problem ourselves, then on the other hand, it is those towns that are having a hard time. β
Hu Wei understood that many of the towns around the imperial capital relied on economic transactions with the imperial capital. The imperial capital has a population of 10 million, and in terms of food and clothing every day, the amount of things that huΔ costs is the amount of days. Even if everyone consciously saves consumption because of the war now, the necessary consumption is still indispensable.
If the things produced by those towns are not sold to the imperial capital, they will not be able to earn a return. They're playing with Ben now, and if your Ben is bigger than them, they'll be the other way around, subject to you.
"Go on!" Hu Wei seemed to hear hope from Momiji's words.
Hongye sorted out his thoughts in his mind and said, "Between the imperial capital and the Six Acropolises, there is a large amount of open space, and we can make full use of these open spaces to grow crops worth us." β
Ouyang Hanbing said: "But planting crops is not a matter of one or two days, we can wait so long to tame."
Hu Wei understood Momiji's train of thought, and said with a smile, "We don't need that long, we don't even need to grow things!"
Momiji nodded and said, "Yes, what we need is just a gesture." Surrounding towns,
Due to the influence of the imperial capital, the foundation is relatively thin, and they can't afford to play. β
Huang Jinfeng also understood at this time, and said, "It's not that you can't grow things." Like Yaya's favorite greens, there are many varieties, but it only takes seven or eight days to harvest. In addition, we can organize a convoy to bring the faint food from the southern region. Financially, I have set aside a sum of money for the difference in price. Those city lords "thought they had made a good move, and this time we will let them taste "what does it mean to steal chickens and rice!"
Hu Wei clapped his hands and said, "Jin Feng said it well, so do it." As for this open person, we don't need to look for someone else. Just pull the legionnaires up. Convert crops into military merits, and money in kind, so that soldiers can also take the opportunity to increase their income!"
"What about training?" Ximen Yufeng suddenly couldn't turn around.
Hu Wei laughed and said, "Isn't it also a good training to learn reengineering with the vast number of farmers." β
Just do it, and the next day, Hu Wei, as the supreme leader of the Immortal Bird Legion, issued a mobilization order. Let the soldiers learn the cultivation techniques from the vast number of farmers. At the same time, the arsenal was ordered to work overtime to "hit a batch of farm tools out."
Let the soldiers put down their swords and soldiers and play farm work, no one has ever done this in the Tianfeng Continent. Hu Wei caused a sensation again, and the city lords and town guards who were waiting for Hu Wei to bow to them all widened their eyes.
The initiative became passive in the blink of an eye, and these city lords and town guards who were ready to fight Hu Wei financially panicked one by one. What is grown is not sold, and they are under a lot of pressure.
On the other hand, in the imperial capital, although there is still a shortage of food, the people are full of hope. Isn't the Immortal Bird Legion already panicking, "It won't be long before fresh melons and vegetables will be produced." As long as there is food in the imperial capital, there is no need to be afraid.
Painting bread does not satisfy hunger, but it gives people hope and peace of mind.
Hu Wei can do this, because his reputation among the people has always been very high" Under the vigorous propaganda of the storyteller, Hu Wei has almost reached the point of omnipotence in people's hearts.
In addition, Hu Wei got the supply of staple food ahead of schedule. With the help of the three grain giants of Commissioner Liu, Hu Wei held the grain of the imperial capital in his hands. There is food in hand" naturally do not panic.
If you have food and keep the people safe, you will not die if you don't eat vegetables.
In the following days, Hu Wei temporarily put Qin Ming's problem aside and went all out to grasp agriculture personally. Much of the knowledge he learned in the previous world, in industry, is not used in this world, but agriculture is passable.
What is a tent of vegetables, what kind of soil is planted and what seedlings, Hu Wei has a lot of these things in his head. Only on the eighth day, the first batch of greens from the Immortal Bird Legion can be harvested.
Hu Chen ordered people to take the first batch of vegetables and pull them around the imperial capital, which further calmed the hearts of the people in the imperial capital. A crisis about faint food has been lifted.
The crisis in the imperial capital has been temporarily lifted, and the crisis in those towns around the imperial capital has just begun.
Due to the embargo, many vegetable farmers' vegetables are rotten in the vegetable fields. The anger of the common people is rising every day. Those city lords and guards began to lose their seats. ,
On this day, Hu Wei was studying how to transfer part of the wasteland to the hands of the common people, and Hongye came in to tell Hu Wei, and people from several surrounding towns came to talk to Hu Wei about the supply of food.
Hu Wei laughed after hearing this, he has only been playing for more than ten days, and he will stop playing?
Hu Wei waved his hand and asked Momiji to send those people away, without even meeting them. What he wants now is no longer a supply of food. He wants these people to obediently hand over all the towns!
............
Langtian, Qin Ming's attack became more and more fierce day by day, and Avril Lavril and Lin Zhengfeng were a little unable to withstand it. The Qin Ming army is really terrible, they almost don't die in battle, often the battle losses are only seventy percent, and they don't withdraw their troops. After more than ten days of fighting, all the soldiers who had fought with the Qin Ming army were all a little panicked.
Today, Qin Ming's rare military uniform appeared in front of the battle. Two miles away, is the fifth acropolis of Langtian, the acropolis that Hu Wei once built with great effort, and its defense is very strong.
Lin Zhengfeng's An Rong Army fought for more than a year, and Qin Ming also fought for more than half a month, but they failed to take down the Fifth Acropolis from the hands of the Wild Wolf Legion.
Time is getting less and less, and Qin Ming doesn't want to wait. Today, he wants to personally command the film and take the Fifth Acropolis.
In the military tent a mile away, Bai Xue looked at Qin Ming's handsome banner worriedly. She was the only one in the whole army who knew Qin Ming's body, and knew that it was very difficult for Qin Ming to get up this morning, but now, he was standing in front of the two armies.
The handsome flag moved, and Bai Xue knew what it meant even if he hadn't been on the battlefield. Now, she could only pray silently for Qin Ming......
The soldiers of the Qin Ming Legion, under the guidance of Shuai Qi, launched a war against the Fifth Acropolis"
The largest offensive. The soldiers in the front row fell, and the soldiers in the front row then rushed up. At this time, no one pays attention to life and death, and there is only one thought in their minds -- rush! rush! rush!
Langtian is fighting, but Hu Wei is growing vegetables in the imperial capital. Today, there are people from the surrounding towns again, and Hu Wei still hasn't seen them. He took the maid and ran to the vegetable field. The golden rape huΔ, which grows beautifully, attracts a lot of mΓ¬ bees.
"Think about it, which one do you want to eat, pick it yourself, go back and let Sister Fuchen fry it for you!" Hu Wei said angrily. It seems that there is not a vegetable field in front of him, but thousands of troops waiting for his inspection room.
"No, they're so bright, don't eat them." The girl pursed her lips.
She never knew that the dishes on the table in the past turned out to be like this.
They seem to be alive, and when the breeze blows, they let out bursts of laughter.
"Young marshal. Jebe came to Hu Wei's side and reported, "Qin Ming has taken the Fifth Acropolis and is now attacking the Langtian Main City. Lin Zhengfeng's troops have already begun to withdraw. β
Hu Wei was stunned and said, "In this way, Langtian will soon fall into Qin Ming's hands." β
, "Yes, I really didn't expect that Lin Zhengfeng didn't win more than one Dongdong, and Qin Ming was about to succeed in just two months." β
There is nothing more than this, and he thought about it: "Send more people and pay attention to the movement of the waves." If there is any news, report it to me immediately. β
Don't say yes, Xingshi left, and not long after, Chen Mengjie walked over.
"What, Empress Chen is also interested in rape," Hu Wei said with a smile.
"I'm here to say goodbye to you." Chen Mengjie replied.
"You want to go?" Hu Wei said strangely, "Isn't the imperial capital happy?"
Chen Mengjie shook her head and said: "The imperial capital is very good" but it is not my home. I received the news that there is a new change in the shape of the Lin Gui Empire and I want to go back. β
Hu Wei knew that Chen Mengjie had never been able to let go of the Lin Gui Empire. She was there, she had given too much, and now she was almost out of the house, how could she be willing.
"Alright then, when will I go, I'll see you off." Hu Wei thought for a while. He didn't have any reason to keep Chen Mengjie. They are only in a cooperative relationship, not a relationship between superiors and subordinates. Chen Mengjie wants to leave, which is her "freedom".
"No need to send it, send you a thousand miles, it's not a farewell." We're not like that, so we don't need to get into that much trouble. Let's have a meal together at noon, and tomorrow morning, I'll be gone. β
"Okay, so be it. Hu Wei didn't say anything more, whether to send or not to send is just a formality, the key is the mentality.
The lunch was made by Chen Mengjie herself, and it was not rich, only a fried rape and a fish.
The two drank wine and chatted about the past. ,
Before parting, Chen Mengjie gave Yaya a necklace and asked for a hug at Hu Wei's place.
Hu Chen and Chen Mengjie both knew that when they said goodbye this time, when they met again, they would probably be on the battlefield. The Tianfeng Continent has been in turmoil, and in this era, everyone can't help themselves.
If it's not the same party, it's probably the enemy.
A month later, the Qin Ming Legion took Langtian City, and the Wild Wolf Legion withdrew from Langtian gloomily. After the blows of the Qin Ming Legion, the Wild Wolf Legion suffered heavy losses, and it had fallen from the third largest military organization in Mandala to the level of an ordinary military group.
After Qin Ming took Langtian, he did not stop his military operations, he didn't even rest the troops, he frantically took Langtian as the center and launched an attack on all sides.
"Is Qin Ming crazy?" Hu Wei's brows furrowed tightly. Qin Ming doing this is tantamount to drinking to quench his thirst, and sooner or later he will make the legion collapse.
"Young Marshal, what do you say Qin Ming wants to do?" Hou San drank. Wine Course. Is there time today, he specially came to Hu Wei for a drink.
"Don't ask me, I don't understand. Hu Wei smiled bitterly: "Lao Ha, what do you think." β
Harrison was dressed in civilian clothes today, and he had a rare shaved beard. Before Hou Santi yì went to the Qinglou to sit, he refused to live or die. Since marrying Theresa, he's really changed a lot.
"I can't say it, but I always have a faint feeling that Qin Ming is arranging something. Harrison replied.
"Aren't you talking nonsense, if Qin Ming has no purpose, is he playing for fun?" Hou San said angrily: "What is his purpose now!"
"Then I don't know!" said Harrison, cheerfully.
Hu Wei thought for a while and said, "I agree with Lao Ha's statement, Qin Ming really seems to be arranging something, but we can't see it for the time being." β
"Forget it, don't talk about Qin Ming, Hou San, I heard that you are about to become a father." Hu Wei turned the topic to Hou San, it's rare that everyone has nothing to do today, and they can't talk about military affairs, these things have been talked about enough in meetings.
"Well, the next month, I was born." Hou San's face showed a hint of satisfaction. The feeling of being a top person, if you haven't experienced it, it's hard to experience.
"Oh Ha, it's coming soon. Hu Wei looked at Harrison with a smile. Harrison's love path,
It's not so smooth, but fortunately, now, it's complete.
Harrison blushed rarely, and whispered back, "I only planted it last month, and I don't know if it was successful." β
Hu Wei and Hou San both laughed. They all know that Theresa has never been willing to have children, and in the end, it was Ximen Yufeng who talked to Theresa in person, and Theresa agreed.
"Hahaha, a few more an, and you'll be successful." β@γ
