Relying on the mountains and mountains, relying on everyone to run.

In these years, it is impossible to take a shortcut, and the scholars attach great importance to their origins, and they will not intermarry ordinary people at all.

What's more, Li Yue is still a bandit leader.

So he could only rely on himself and find coal and iron mines, which brought Li Yue a trace of confidence.

There is no endless road, and when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, there will always be a way to live.

With iron, the mountains could be massively expanded and war-capable, and soldiers no longer had to carry sticks and forks as weapons, and simple armor could be crafted.

With coal, this winter won't be so hard.

Both Yuzhou and Bingzhou are resource-rich lands, and it is not surprising to find these two deposits.

Li Yue hurriedly led people to check, hidden in the ravine, covered by thick fallen leaves.

Among them, the iron ore has been mined, there is a shallow mine hole, obliquely down more than 20 zhang, the stone wall is hung with moss and vines, wrapped around more than a dozen dry bones on the ground.

Li Yue checked the degree of bone decay, and the age was relatively old.

The scale of iron ore is not large, and it is definitely enough for Heiyun Mountain, and it is also accompanied by some other minerals, dark yellow color, which seems to be copper or gold.

Although it is not much, it is also a great wealth for Heiyun Mountain.

In this era, there were primeval forests everywhere, and the big trees had grown for many years, dense like walls, and the shrubs were overgrown with thorns, and it was difficult to walk empty-handed, let alone transport them out.

There is a more difficult problem, this place is close to Xuanyuan Mountain and far away from Heiyun Mountain.

The movement is too big, once it is discovered by Xuanyuan Mountain, will they be indifferent?

It's not just Heiyun Mountain that is poor and crazy these days.

On the day of the confrontation in Weishui, Li Yue felt that Xuanyuan Mountain was poorer than Heiyun Mountain......

Although there is a tacit understanding of allies on both sides, they are not real allies, and people die for money, birds die for food, even if they are real allies, what can they do?

Xuanyuan Mountain once walked in front of Li Yue.

It is like a hurdle, the more you pass, the sky is high and the sea is wide, and the more you can't pass, you can only be locked in a hundred miles near Heiyun Mountain.

Li Yue looked to the south, and the shadow of the verdant mountains could be faintly seen.

Zu Ti led more than 100 troops to the north, and after expanding to 2,000 people, he also faced the same problem, which was blocked by Zhang Ping and Fan Ya in Qiaocheng, and the army was hungry and stationed in Taiqiu.

However, Zu Ti had the name of General Fenwei and Yuzhou Thorn on his head, and he used a divisive plan to get rid of Zhang Ping and persuade Fan Ya, so that he had a place to stay.

"Build a dock village here first, and these days the scout camp is keeping an eye on Xuanyuan Mountain." Li Yue decided to try Xuanyuan Mountain's reaction.

I am not afraid of the field battle in Xuanyuan Mountain, but I am afraid of their continuous attacks.

"Obey." Zhang Shengye gave up.

The coal mine is very close to Heiyun Mountain, so there is no need to worry about the surrounding forces.

Li Yuesui led people to mine, and the quality of coal in Yuzhou's territory is quite good, which can fully meet the needs of heating.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty monopolized salt and iron, which greatly improved the smelting technology, and coal was used in smelting on a large scale.

There is a blast furnace left over from the Han Dynasty in Xingyang City, and to this day, it is still making weapons and armor for Zhao Zhao.

The Wei and Jin Shi people made a kind of fragrant briquette, pounded the coal into powder, sifted it carefully with a light squeeze, mixed with pear, jujube juice and other spices, made into various shapes such as plum blossoms and phoenixes, and placed them in the incense burner, which can emit bursts of fragrance when burning.

The strange fragrance is divided into fine mist, and the charcoal is pounded lightly.

Coal is coal.

Briquettes are no longer an uncommon thing.

Truckloads of coal were pulled back to Heiyun Mountain, some yellow mud was added, and briquettes were made into briquettes, which were placed in the soil pits, which could burn slowly all night, and the whole house was warm.

The only hidden danger was poisoning, Li Yue strictly ordered that every room must be ventilated, and also asked the women's battalion to inspect day and night, and found that those who closed the door to burn coal were all whipped twenty in public.

The heating problem of Heiyun Mountain has been solved.

Li Yue was not the only one who used his brains on the mountain, and the ingenious women made a kind of grass coat out of dried autumn grass.

Li Yue tried it, and there was no need to think about the beauty, it could meet the daily travel, keep warm, and prevent rain, but it was a little prickly, and it was very uncomfortable to wear.

However, on the mountain, there is a poor way to do this, and many of the new refugees are still bare-bottomed and footed.

When they were given straw clothes and straw sandals, they immediately smiled.

In addition to straw clothing, there are also leather clothing, animal skins, bird feathers, chickens, ducks, and goose feathers are all collected and made into clothes.

Li Yue was given a leopard fur and a wolf fur hakama.

The winter of the Wei and Jin dynasties was much colder than that of later generations, and after the autumn harvest, the north wind swept across the land, becoming colder day by day.

The children on the mountain are bare-legged, dragging their snots and can run all over the mountains.

At the age of six or seven, he can chase rabbits and birds, work in the fields, and at the age of eleven or twelve, bend bows and arrows, and hold knives and spears......

The harsh living environment makes everyone's will strong.

Even Li Yue felt that he had become tenacious.

The entire Black Cloud Mountain is like a mountain city, with wooden and stone houses stretching from the mountainside to the top of the mountain, and everyone is doing their best.

Labor also calms the hearts of the homeless.

The wisdom of the people is unlimited, and the power of the people is infinite.

As long as they are provided with a stable environment, great difficulties will not stop them.

The new displaced people went south intermittently, and unlike the previous large-scale of 20,000 people, all of them came with 3,500 people.

Heiyun Mountain has long formed a set of processes, selecting, isolating, cleaning, boiling medicine, and cooking porridge......

There is no need for Li Yue to take action, and the people in the women's camp and the medical camp will handle it properly.

A team of more than 500 people could survive three or four hundred people, many of whom had already run out of oil on the way south, and even if there was no plague, people would have died long ago.

It is not only Heiyun Mountain that has been infected, but also a large-scale plague has broken out in the nearby Jing County.

The scouts reported that more than four or five hundred corpses were thrown into the moat every day.

The people of Gongxian County, who bore the brunt of the north, were all dead.

The Men to the west closed the gates early and escaped this fate.

"General, there is a big epidemic in Jingxian County, and the county order Han Xu sent someone to ask for help." Xin Cang arched his hand.

Heiyun Mountain is under the jurisdiction of Jing County, so it naturally knows what is happening on the mountain.

Li Yue has a good impression of Jingxian County, and the "protection fee" that should be paid is not less.

"Why not take this opportunity to take Jingxian?" Wei Shan's eyes widened.

The population on the mountain has increased dramatically, and the cultivated fields around Bishui Fort are not enough, and there are still many fields in the north, but they have all been washed away by the Yellow River, and in addition, the north is too close to Xingyang City, and Li Yue does not dare to develop there for the time being.

"How can a gentleman take advantage of others' danger?" Xin Cang's mouth was dumbfounded.

Wei Shan sneered: "Who said that we are gentlemen? We are bandits and outcasts! It's this bowl of rice that you eat, why do you have to work thanklessly to save Jing County? There are not so many belongings in Heiyun Mountain! ”

Most of the other generals were also in favor of eating Jingxian.

It's a place to stay.

Xin Cang was originally from Jingxian County, so he naturally missed his homeland, and bowed his hand to Li Yue, begging: "General......"
