Chapter 268: Surrendering General

Except for a thousand scouts, almost everyone was engaged in work.

With the iron farm tools and livestock, the efficiency was greatly increased. In more than ten days, 7788 acres of Si River were cultivated, and Li Yue had 9700 acres of high-quality farmland under his account.

After finishing their work in the Sishui Plain, Li Yue led his scouts to clean up the Huju River.

With fewer people, there are more wild animals, and Linchuan has more primitive characteristics.

We didn't see any tigers, but we did see a lot of wild deer and wild sheep, group by group. Looking deeper, we found a herd of wild donkeys with a size of a thousand.

Looking at the wild beasts all over the Sichuan, Li Yue's heart moved, "There is no need to cultivate this place, it will be our pasture!"

To the north of Jijiabao, there is still a lot of wasteland in the upper reaches of Sishui River. The same goes for reclamation there.

Without oil and water, the consumption of food would be too great.

It is rare that there is such a treasured land near Heiyun Mountain. It has been completely bulldozed and converted into farmland, which is a waste of natural resources.

There were originally many wild animals near Heiyun Mountain, but they were over-hunted and all of them fled into the mountains.

Li Yue learned his lesson and the water flowed steadily.

"General, Fangtou has sent a thousand pairs of swords, spears, bows and arrows, Chen Liu has sent ten sharp knives, Zheng and Wang each have sent five armors and ten horses in return." Scouts came from the north.

Li Yue asked: "Guangzong didn't respond?"

"Not yet."

Favors come and go.

Li Yue's original intention was to join the begging army, but Guangzong didn't make any move, which made Li Yue a little unsure of what they meant.

You can only ask Bo Wu for advice on this kind of thing.

Li Yuesui led the people back to the fort on foot.

I feel that it is inconvenient to have no horses. It is troublesome to go back and forth, and the scouts' delivery of messages is also affected. Now that we have the food in Jijiabao, raising dozens of horses is not a big problem, but dozens of horses cannot meet the requirements.

Thinking of the herds of wild donkeys in the Sichuan, Li Yue's heart moved and he tamed them so that he could use them reluctantly.

Compared with horses, donkeys have many advantages. They are not so delicate. They start eating grass fifty days after birth, making them easy to feed. They can also mate with horses and give birth to mules.

Thinking about it this way, it's not impossible to get a team of mule and donkey cavalry to make ends meet...

The Central Plains is located in the plains and requires a mobile cavalry.

Back at Heiyun Mountain, Li Yue's straw sandals were worn to pieces, so he changed his clothes before going to find Bo Wu.

In later generations, this place was a famous scenic spot, suitable for retirement. Li Yue was busy fighting life and death at the foot of the mountain, while Bo Wu was leisurely wandering around and gained a lot of weight.

"Ordinarily Mr. Li won't care about us." Bo Wu said, stroking his double chin.

Li Yue thought for a while and said: "Is it possible that when we attack Jijiabao, the noise is too great and Guangzong is dissatisfied? In order to avoid suspicion, they stay away from us?"

Although they are both beggars, their styles are very different.

Those north of the Yellow River had long surrendered to Jie Zhao and were truly beggars. Those south of the Yellow River were those who had refused to surrender and fled from Hebei.

Chen Wu, the beggar commander of Chen Liu, was defeated by Shi Le in Hanoi and fled to Chen Liu. Before his death, he left the last words "Don't do anything reckless".

Bo Wudao: "In addition to making too much noise, he also walked too close to the Di people."

Li Yue was stunned. Didn't he say that Fu Hong had a good relationship with Li Nong?

Bo Wu leisurely said: "Fu Hong was deeply suspected by Shi Hu. His sons and nephews were brutally killed on various charges. Everyone in Di was in danger. In order not to be implicated, the court naturally stayed away from them, lest they also be suspected by Shi Hu. Fang Tou

They didn't have any good intentions in dragging us to attack Jijiabao, they just wanted to provoke Shi Xuan and Li Gong to break the muddy waters against us Han people."

The attack on Jijiabao was originally an internal matter within the beggar army, but now that Fangtou's people have gotten involved, the nature has changed.

Just attacking a dock, there are actually so many doorways inside.

It's no wonder that Fangtou's people are so polite to him. It turns out they have been taking advantage of him.

"Why didn't uncle warn my nephew earlier?" Li Yue was a little depressed.

Bo Wu burped, "I reminded you, why don't we attack Jijiabao?"

Indeed, Jijiabao and Heiyun Mountain are at odds with each other.

From the perspective of Heiyun Mountain, Fang Tou actively throws an olive branch to him, shouldn’t he accept it?

Guangzong has Guangzong’s position, and Heiyunshan has Heiyunshan’s interests.

"This is just my guess. No one knows what Guangzong thinks. Don't worry too much. They will do what they do, and we will do what we do. If Shihu really comes, they won't show mercy!" Bo Wumi!

Opened eyes.

Although people are drunk, their hearts are not.

As long as Shi Hu is alive, the begging army cannot come together.

"My nephew understands."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Li Yue resigned.

As Bo Wu said, what Guangzong thinks is Guangzong's business. The two sides have different positions. Although they have incestuous feelings, they don't have to follow their wishes in everything.

Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Fangtou is right in front of you. If people take the initiative to come to your door, should you just ignore them?

Although it is a use, it is also a win-win move.

After the reclamation of the Si River Plain was completed, Zhou Qian led people to replant short-term crops such as bean sprouts and other short-term crops, and then led people to reclaim the wasteland north of Si River.

Through hard work, the people of Jijiabao quickly integrated into Heiyun Mountain.

Jijia Fort has become a thing of the past, so Li Yue simply changed its name to Sishui Fort.

In addition to reclamation, four small forts were also built on Heiyun Mountain, two on the west mountain, one on the south mountain, and one on the east mountain, all of which guarded dangerous points.

The cliffs on Beishan Mountain are so steep that it is impossible to climb up unless you have wings. Moreover, there are beacons and observation towers on Beishan Mountain that are guarded day and night.

Various vegetables are grown along the streams on the mountain.

Almost everyone is doing their best to survive without any complaints.

Even Li Yue was tanned. He plowed in the morning, hunted in the afternoon, rode on horseback to patrol various outposts in the evening, and told the soldiers about the old events of the Qin and Han Dynasties in the evening to rebuild their national self-confidence.

At the same time, he did not forget to mix in some private goods. From the Gaoping Ling Incident to the regicide on the street, from the Eight Kings Rebellion to the Yongjia Disaster, he told the soldiers one by one the scandals of the Sima family.

The soldiers were filled with hatred, "I finally understand why the world is in such chaos!"

"The Sima family is so incompetent that we are reduced to mere servants!"

"Is there a more shameless family in the world than the Sima family?"

"That is, if we don't ask them to be as wise and powerful as the emperors of Qin and Han, they should at least be as good as the emperors of Cao and Wei..."

The soldiers were talking to each other one by one.

The great dynasties in history basically all had external troubles, such as the Xiongnu in Qin and Han Dynasties, the Rouran in Northern Wei, the Turks in Sui and Tang Dynasties, etc. However, the Jin Dynasty faced the disintegrated Xianbei, the Hanized Xiongnu, and the Wuhuan who were willing to be thugs.

, and the Qiang Di who farmed and paid rent honestly.

As long as the Sima family was decent, they wouldn't have been so miserable.

Even if the Sima family is miserable, the key is to drag the entire northern people into the water...

After telling the story to the soldiers, Li Yue had to study the art of war until late at night.

Wei Liaozi, Sima Fa and Wu Zi, every time you read it, you can deeply feel the wisdom of the predecessors.

Basically, all the difficulties encountered by Heiyun Mountain can be solved in the book.

Li Yue knew that he was not a genius in military warfare, so he worked extremely hard.

Although the days are busy, they are also extremely fulfilling.

Occasionally, when I was immersed in the bamboo slips, I would look up at the two big flags on the wall: Drive out the Jie slaves and restore our country.
