It is already the winter wheat cultivation season. Nanpi City is only a hundred miles away from Lecheng County. Dong Hu is like a tourist in Nanpi City, but he has not seen any echoes from Gongsun Zan for several days, and his face is getting darker and darker...

"The black cow immediately sent ploughs, rakes, and trunks day and night, and immediately dispatched chief envoys at all levels to each county to sort out the fields. All the people and dead families were transferred to the Magistrate's Mansion."

"Tell the people of all counties that the fields cultivated this year will belong to whoever plant them, and the summer grain will not be taxed in the coming year."

Sun Niu was excited. He knew that after the lord said such words, it meant that Bohai County was the one who could have it from now on. He was about to agree...

"Immediately send Dong Gu to come quickly."

"promise!"

Sun Niu didn't drag it down, and then clasped his fists and left with great strides. Dong Hu looked silently towards Lecheng County...

"snort!"

"The mud that can't be supported on the wall!"

August and September are the season for winter wheat cultivation. As this season approaches, he has lost some patience. As for the safety of his children... he is not very worried. If Gongsun Zan dares to threaten him with Bai'er, he doesn't mind killing him now!

Dong Hu was extremely confident, and confidence that only ten thousand elite infantrymen were enough to defeat Gongsun Zan's 30,000 soldiers.

After the military order was conveyed, Dong Hu did not go around, but instead started digging the ground with a shirtless engineer shovel. There were more than 10,000 soldiers like him, even the heavy armored cavalry soldiers.

There were very advanced farm tools in this era, including single-slash ploughs, rakes, and even hand-crank blowers for blowing wheat skins. However, ordinary people cannot afford these. Most people use wooden farm tools, even if they are slashed, they are wooden shovels and wooden forks, and their work efficiency is very low.

Dong Hu was trained according to the methods of elite soldiers of the Roman Empire. He not only had the ability to fight, but also had the ability to build camps in the wild, and could build bridges in the mountains and water, especially when there were only tens of thousands of people in each county on average.

On average, there are only tens of thousands of people in each county. It is difficult for such a small number of people to provide accommodation for tens of thousands of troops. The soldiers must build temporary camps themselves, so each combat battalion must carry a considerable number of engineer shovels, iron forks, crowbars, axes, saws... so that the army can set up camps anytime and anywhere. After he taught some craftsmen to cast the pressed well heads, the army was equipped with some, but they were unable to get rubber. They could only use armor and leather to replace the most important water absorption gaskets for pressed well heads.

The army was equipped with some engineer shovels, especially infantrymen. The cavalry ran fast and found that they were not properly jumping on the war horse and fled without a trace. However, the slower infantry was different. Once during the battle, whether it was attacking or retreating, if the defensive camp could not be built in the shortest time, the soldiers would face great danger. Moreover, the shorter the time to build the camp, the longer the rest time they obtained. For this reason, in Lian County and Shangdang County, the higher the ratio of the engineer shovels in the army, the higher the ratio of at least half of the people had to carry the engineer shovels. Anyway, it was not very heavy. If the sword was broken when fighting, the engineer shovels could still cut the heads in half.

Dong Hu suffered a great loss in the winter of the first year of Zhongping. At that time, he was still poor and could not get more cast iron, so he frozen to death by nearly 10,000 people. It was also the beginning of that time. In addition to the necessary swords, guns, swords and arrows, he would instinctively pay attention to the ability to build the military in the field.

In addition to the army itself, Dong Hu's troops basically continue the tradition of self-cultivation and self-eating. No matter where he goes, the first thing is to enclose a piece of land to do military farming. As long as it is farming season, soldiers must first plant grain. Do not care whether there is time to harvest the harvest season. After all, the army must go to the battlefield at any time, and no one knows whether the harvest season will fight, but this is not important. The important thing is to plant grain first. If you really don't have time to harvest, then open it up and let the people harvest and share the accounts with the people.

As the wheat seed season was about to be approaching, Dong Hu made the final decision. More than 10,000 people went to the ground to dig the ground. He had no plan to occupy Bohai County in advance and no farming plan. Naturally, he would not carry a lot of plows, rakes, croakers, etc. He could only use engineers to shovel the ground, then splash the grain seeds with his hands, and then use rakes to rake the surface a few times. This yield would definitely not be too high, but he didn't care about these.

Although no farming plan was formulated in advance, only engineers could use shovels to dig the ground, the efficiency of the army was not comparable to ordinary people. They were all strong men who were trained all year round. The engineers shovels were not wood shovels used by the people. One acre of land a day is 10,000 mu of land a day, and ten days is 10,000 mu of land. Even if the yield of a mu of land is a little worse, the yield per mu of two stones per mu, and even if one person eats 100 kilograms of grain a month, 100,000 mu of land is enough to eat ten thousand soldiers and horses in one year.

This person is quite strange. When Yuan Shao was the prefect, he recruited tens of thousands of soldiers in Bohai County, but he became Dong Hu's prisoner. However, this did not cause much harm to Bohai County. However, when Gongsun Fan became the prefect, Bohai County was in great trouble. The people were also extremely disgusted and afraid of smashing the soldiers at other people's doors. Even if Dong Ju, Dong Fang and Sun Niu had never harassed ordinary people, the people would hide when they saw it, which was similar to hiding from the plague. But when Dong Hu brought over ten thousand men and farmed shirtlessly, men and women ran to the place to watch the fun...

I'm not afraid of Dong Buyi's follower.

Seeing the people standing on the ground and pointing fingers, the soldiers worked harder to farm...

Several old men have been standing in the field for more than ten days, from morning to noon, and from afternoon to sunset. Dong Hu didn't pay much attention at the beginning, but these old men watched the fun every day. While resting, they held the eldest teapot in one hand and a cloth towel in the other. While walking, they wiped the sweat beads on their faces and chests. They followed by a team of people holding bows and knives. They were neatly dressed and armored, and they did not participate in any farming.

Dong Hu came to the old men with a teapot, but they seemed to be fine.

"A few gentlemen are here every day, so why don't we be angry? I'll arrest them?"

Dong Hu sat on the ground without caring about it, and even delivered a large teapot to several old men, asking them to drink tea. Seeing the old men shaking their heads, he was no longer polite, and he drank a cow in front of the spout...

"More than ten years ago, I heard that the Lintao Huwa defeated the enemy with one thousand thousand and 10,500,000 Qiang people even forced the surrender... At first, I didn't believe it. Even if there was such a thing, it was Huangfu Yizhen's work. It was not until the first year of Zhongping that I believed it."

The thin and short old man spoke first. Dong Hu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled without caring.

"Sir, can't you want to scold us as a rebel thief?"

Dong Hu smiled at the old man again, but the old man looked at the soldiers who were still farming in the distance...

"hehe."

The old man showed some indescribable expressions.

"Who in the world is not a thief?"

Dong Hu smacked his lips several times, and had to admit that the old man was right, so he nodded and counted.

"What the sir said is that our Huwa is indeed a little rebel."

The old man was surprised that he would say such words and turned to look at Dong Hu.

"You're a weird doll."

Dong Hu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Whether you want to or not, you will become a prince with real power in his hands, and they are all rebels. They are either rebels or walking on the road of rebellion. The final result is no different. No matter how you quibble, you cannot change this fact."

"As the saying goes, a great hero can be true to his true nature, and a real celebrity is romantic. Although our tiger baby has nothing to do with the 'hero', it's still OK for us to 'real nature'."

As he said that, Dong Hu stood up with a teapot and walked towards the fields again. He could see the extraordinaryness of several old men. He guessed that it was the local tribe in Nanpi City. There was no problem chatting for a few words, but he was unwilling to let him interact further. But he was still wrong. These old men did live in Nanpi City, but they were not locals. They came from Wei County, Qinghe County, and Hejian Country. They came to Nanpi City a month or two ago.

Dong Hu naturally didn't know this. He just thought it was a chat during rest. He still held the engineer's shovel and scattered his butt. He watched him dig the ground quickly and slapped the soil. It seemed that he really often did such things. Several old men were still sitting on the ridge of the field. After a long time, no one spoke...

"Brother Yin, what do you think of this boy?"

The old man sitting at the edge suddenly spoke. The thin old man did not turn around and stared at Dong Hu who was digging the soil in the distance and slapped the soil. It seemed as if he had not heard anyone ask questions, until more than ten breaths passed...

"Didn't your Choi family have made a decision?"

Hearing these words, the old man on the edge was full of bitterness.

"Weikao (Cui Lie) was confused. If he had not gone to Xiangyang, with his talent as Zhouping (Cui Jun), he might have entered the cabinet at this time."

An old man frowned and said dissatisfied: "The world is in chaos, it's good that others can bet on the family. Your Cui family just married a daughter of Yuan, but at the same time he was in the court, Dong Xining, Yuan Benchu, and Yuan Gaolu. There are only these four families in the world who can compete in the Central Plains. What else do you want?"

Old Man Cui's beard blowing Lao Gao, and snorted coldly: "Zhang Laosi, your baby has temporarily taken office as the prefect before he has tied his hair. What else do you have to stay?"

"snort!"

"Yuan Benchu? Yuan Highway?"

"Dong Xining has already cultivated the fields here, and Yuan Benchu ​​is already a trapped beast in the cage. Then Yuan Highway is worse than Yuan Benchu, so how could he be Dong Xining's opponent? As for the court... you won't understand what the 'cabinet' means, right?"

"Just relying on one cabinet, and only the chief minister is Yan Zhong, how could Dong Xining be a usurper?"

Many people know that Dong Hu had built a cabinet, six ministries, and they did these when he was in Liangzhou. Others only thought that the six ministries were five officials, and the cabinet was just a different person, the chief envoy, and the gatherings were engaged in. No one cared too much about this matter, but the old people sitting on the ridge of the field were very clear-headed, especially some families in Ganling County, Qinghe County. These families took advantage of Liu Sheng's escape, and some family children also took the opportunity to enter Luoyang.

Dong Hu didn't want to see the lost orphan child die in vain. Whether it was a boy or a girl, he didn't want to see such a scene. Once he met, he would be admitted to the young army and would bring the intelligent children around him to train him. He would teach them when he had time. On weekdays, there were also teachers and teachers, and they were different. They were not only poetry, books, etiquette, etc., but also craftsmen, farmers, and doctors from the Medical Court... Following Dong Hu's battles in the south and north, every time he went to a place, Dong Hu would find some local old farmers to explain the local mountains, rivers and national customs to them...

Most intelligent children will be sent to him. One is to teach some knowledge that does not belong to this world, and the other is to let them see more of the world and experience more. Children from poor families are not as good as children of aristocratic families. They are not only lacking knowledge in books, but more of them are lack of knowledge.
