Outside Xingyang, spring ploughing has begun.

On both sides of the river, there are busy crowds everywhere.

There are several red flags planted in the fields, and whether they are under the jurisdiction of Heiyun Mountain or not, they all have the word "Heiyun" written on them.

The beggars who passed by were all respectful, and no one trampled on the fields.

The Black Cloud soldiers looked at the red flags on this side, and couldn't help but look proud.

Occasionally, a farmer raised his head and shouted at the soldiers: "Be careful, we are all people from Heiyun Mountain, beware of my Heiyun Mountain's military law!" ”

The soldiers burst into laughter, baffling the busy peasants in the fields.

But after laughing, they all became more cautious, and every step was taken very carefully, as if they were afraid of stepping on the field.

Military discipline is mutual, the Black Cloud Army has the trust of the people, and the people are at peace.

Accustomed to seeing the bloody battlefield, I suddenly encountered this full of peace, and I had the illusion of a paradise.

In troubled times, it is quite rare to see this scenery.

Passing through Jingxian, I saw that the city was also full of red flags, and the word "black cloud" was written on the largest side.

In the past, Han Xu twisted and pinched, and after participating in the Liangli War, Heiyun Mountain proved that he was capable of protecting the water and soil.

In the spring ploughing season, Han Xu didn't have time to entertain, so he was busy in the fields all day long.

Li Yue didn't bother, the Black Cloud Army didn't even enter the city, rested under the city wall for one night, and continued to hurry the next day.

When he arrived at the Heiyun Mountain realm, Li Yue's heart was relieved.

As far as the eye can see, the plains are fertile, the ditches are winding, the adults are working in the fields, and the children are running on the ridges.

When he saw the Black Cloud Army, he shouted: "I'm back!" ”

Then there were cries of "coming back" all over the field.

Zhou Lian rode his horse covered in mud, with an apologetic face, "Spring ploughing is urgent, and recently displaced people from all over the country have come one after another, everything is complicated, and the subordinates have missed the distance, and the general forgives the sin." ”

Looking at his emaciated and dark face, Li Yue felt for a while, "There is no need for this between you and me. ”

Zhou Lian wiped the sweat on his face, but his hands were full of mud, but the more he wiped it, the dirtier it became, but he couldn't hide the excitement on his face, "Since the general showed his might, people from near and far have come to vote, and in ten days, there are as many as 20,000 people!" ”

This is to be expected.

When the families of the begging soldiers from all over Yuzhou are delivered, the population will be even larger.

"General, who do you think this is?" Zhou pointed to a person behind him.

Li Yue's eyes lit up, "Tian Leopard? ”

Tian Leopard stepped forward with a little embarrassment, "The villain has seen the general. ”

After a year or two, it feels a lot calmer, probably having a hard time outside, and the thieves are also very involuted these years.

Wei Shan stepped forward and punched him in the shoulder, "Haha, how can you kid do it now?" ”

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!" The reunion of the old people, Li Yue is naturally happy, although they are thieves, but thieves also have a way, when they say goodbye, they will share all his armor behind.

Li Yue still remembers this feeling.

"In the future, I will wait for my brother to go to the battlefield to kill Kahu!" Wei Shan was quite excited.

Unexpectedly, Tian Leopard's interest was not high, and he bowed his hand to Li Yue, "It's not a secret, the villain has been wandering outside for two years, and the brothers around him have scattered one by one, and he is disheartened, and it is enough to have a piece ......of land to cultivate in peace."

That's a big change.

At the beginning, Tian Leopard took the thieves and carried an axe to fight the Gaoli Guards with Wei Shan, but he didn't expect that in the past two years, he would become like this.

But it's normal to think about it, where do thieves come from? Aren't farmers who can't survive gathering in the mountains and forests?

Li Yuewen said: "If you want to farm in the future, you can farm, and in two days, I will find a woman for you and set up your home first!" ”

"General......" Tian Leopard choked.

Seeing him like this, Li Yue felt a sense of loss in his heart, and he didn't know where Meng Kai went, and for such a long time, no news came back.

The army returned to the mountain, except for the scouts, and rested.

However, the soldiers could not be idle, took off their armor, and immediately busied themselves in their fields.

Li Yue visited the families of the fallen soldiers one by one, and each family received 30 pieces of cloth, 10 stone of grain, a mule, two sheep, and 1 stone of grain every month.

The lonely old man was sent to live in Beishan, and the young son was sent to Shangwutang.

This is all that can be done with the current conditions of Heiyun Mountain, but Li Yue will not forget these people and engrave their names on the cliffs of Beishan one by one.

Respecting the fallen soldiers is respecting oneself.

Within two days, beggar soldiers from all over Yuzhou sent their families one after another.

Some small groups of beggars simply moved in.

The population of Black Cloud Mountain has swelled dramatically, and people are everywhere above and below the mountain.

In the past, I was always worried that others would attack, either Zhang Yu, the assassin of Yuzhou, or Liu Guo, the assassin of Luozhou, but now, it is not Heiyun Mountain that worries about them, but they are worried about Heiyun Mountain.

Both of them were very interested in shrinking their forces and giving up the Weishui Basin.

Li Yue also moved the population from the mountains to Bishui Fort and Weishui Fort at the foot of the mountain, as well as Jingxian, Gongxian, Chenggao and other places.

Roughly calculated, he has thirteen large and small city docks in his hands.

Except for Xingyang County, where the Zheng family is entrenched, the entire Xingyang County has actually belonged to Heiyun Mountain.

In addition, there are spark-like beggar enclaves everywhere.

For example, Jiaxian, Fucheng and Wuyang in Yingchuan County, Zhaoling, Shangcai and Canyang in Runan County, Mangxian, Fuyang and Xiaqiu in Peiguo, Mengxian, Yongxian and Jishi in Liangguo and so on.

Although the county seat was in the hands of the officials of Qianzhao, the outside of the city had long been the world of beggar soldiers.

Many county orders are also the same as Han Xu, the capital county order, and the black cloud banner is directly hung at the head of the city......

These areas are scattered and cannot be connected into a whole, making it extremely difficult to manage.

Xiangcheng, Xuchang, Mixian and other choke points are all pinched in the hands of Zhang Yu, the assassin of Yuzhou, and Zhang Yu has recently become closer to the south.

Li Yue stared at the sand table and pondered how to condense these scattered stars.

Attacking Zhang Yu is not feasible in the short term.

If his side moves, Xie Shang in Huainan will definitely support.

And the 30,000 or 40,000 Huns army of Yangcheng Liu will definitely not sit idly by.

This level of melee cannot be afforded by Heiyun Mountain, and the entire Heiyun Mountain has only five troops, plus Zhu Xu's two thousand Jingxiang troops.

Zhang Yu and Liu Guo were able to pull out a team of twenty or thirty thousand horses in an instant.

The top priority at the moment is to expand the army first, and now spring plowing is the priority, and other things must be postponed.

There was no one around to discuss, but it happened that Yueji came to visit, and when she saw Li Yue staring at the small red flags on the sand table, she smiled, "Since you can't summon the gathering, it's better to send someone over." ”

"How do you send someone?" Li Yue said with a smile.

Yueji is extremely intelligent, her knowledge and medical skills are excellent, and Heiyun Mountain was attacked by Gaoli's guards at the beginning, and she also contributed a lot of strength.

Li Yue asked her to take care of the medical camp and the women on the mountain, but she was only in order.

"The major affairs of the country are nothing more than farming and war, why don't my brother send Tuntian envoys to supervise his cultivation, and then send Heiyun to train soldiers for him?" Yueji spread her hands, looking delicate and lovely.

"Good strategy!" Li Yue was surprised in his heart, these two hands were equivalent to grasping the lifeblood of the beggar army in various places.

Tuntian will manage the grain and grass, and the black cloud will manage the army, and when the time comes, the army will be launched, and the spark will become a prairie fire!

No, it is not enough to manage the grain and grass and the army, and the ideological level should also be grasped.

Heiyun Mountain's mode of telling the story of the Qin and Han dynasties can be promoted, the trinity, even if the beggar leaders have other ideas, they can't shake the people below.

"If you have any ideas in the future, you can teach more as a brother!" Yueji is a good seedling, it is enough to be a staff member, the key is to be loyal, and Li Yueqing is the same brother and sister, Heiyun Mountain has no top mastermind for the time being, so she can only come alive.
