The child was so hungry that he could hear him in half of the village.

Poor women who don’t have milk babies in the village went to the neighboring village to find someone to feed them once, but they did not agree to long-term feeding and could only help once occasionally.

Giving birth to a fat boy was originally a happy event, but now it has become a worry, and it can only be sent to someone or starved to death.

Ma Ersao cried and cried. At this time, the newly appointed female official came, carrying four packs of milk powder and a set of bottles.

Ma Ersao couldn't understand what she was doing.

“What is this for?”

"This is milk powder, which is for feeding children. The government sends it for free. Please give it to the child first. You must eat it for emergency treatment. 70% sure you can feed the child to grow up, so you can feed it as soon as possible."

The family was worried, so they fed it once according to the female official's method. The steps were quite troublesome, and the water had to be warmed up. Moreover, the milk in the bottle could not be fed for more than an hour.

After feeding it once, the child actually ate no drop left.

Ma Ersan wanted to feed her, but the female official quickly stopped her. She had to feed her children in small quantities many times. The newborn child had a very small stomach.

The female official not only needs to pay the bill, but also has to record the child's growth and health status. There are quite a lot of things to do.

In less than half a month, six hundred households were distributed throughout Xuzhou, and more than six hundred children were able to grow up.

Chen Gong’s plan was amazing. Every year, Xuzhou could survive 15,000 more children because of milk powder, which would be 150,000 in ten years. In addition, the huge benefits brought by increasing grain production can cause Xuzhou’s population to erupt in the short term. Manpower is the key to the princes fighting for hegemony.

Why Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are strong? That is because these two places are densely populated and have rich human resources. In the era of underdeveloped productivity, the amount of manpower determines the strength, population, population, and population are major dividends.

Chen Gong walked around the government office excitedly and asked, "The king is bo, go and get a bag of milk powder. I want to try it."

Wang Min hesitated a little: "This is for babies. Will adults have diarrhea after drinking it?"

"Stop talking nonsense. It's okay for babies to drink it. How can adults have diarrhea after drinking it?"

Soon, the king took a bag and Chen Gong took a porcelain cup and cut a few spoons, drank some, and said, "The taste is a bit light, a milky smell, nothing special."

"There is nothing, but the baby has a good reaction after drinking it. There are more than 600 children. No one has any adverse reactions for the time being. Children who drink milk powder should drink more water to prevent getting angry."

Chen Gong was thinking about whether he would have a few more babies, so he would save money from hiring a nurse.

As soon as the milk powder was released, Lu Bu's prestige increased several levels. Think about it, this child has been eating the things provided by the government since he was born. Can he not support Lu Bu when he grows up in the future?

The reputation of the Xuzhou government in the people has also been greatly improved, even surpassing the Tao Qian period.

You should know that Tao Qian has a high prestige in Xuzhou, which was the result of more than ten years of hard work. Now that Lu Bu and Chen Gong have only been in power in Xuzhou for only one year, it is very rare to have such a reputation.

The weather gradually became colder, and all Xuzhou soldiers changed into winter clothes.

Teng's 20,000 new recruits are no longer recruits. They have been training for six months, so how can they still be called new recruits?

Gao Shun commanded more than 24,000 troops to guard Teng Kingdom. He strictly prevented Cao Cao from attacking eastward. Lu Bu seemed to have forgotten Teng Kingdom recently and had not come to Teng Kingdom recently.

Gao Shun worked diligently, and almost every time he had been mobilized 20,000 soldiers, he usually had the trap camp and 4,000 infantry in the headquarters. In order to deal with safety, he arranged one thousand soldiers and horses in Sishui just in case.

As a result, something really happened. To the west of Sishui, there were a new group of chaos on Cao Cao's territory, with about three or four thousand people entrenched in Rencheng, collecting grain on the spot and occupying the treasury. It seemed that he wanted to go south to Teng Kingdom.

Gao Shun sent a detailed investigation and clearly. Who is this? Lu Qian, a bandit in Taishan County. Like Zang Ba, Lu Qian is a very famous person in Taishan County, but their reputation is not good, so he is called Taishan Bandit.

It turned out that during this period, Lu Qian would not go too far and do things randomly.

I don’t know what happened, but Cao Cao’s temperament has changed drastically recently. He sent three elite soldiers from Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, and three elite soldiers to encircle him. Lu Qian actually planned to surrender to Cao Cao, but he wanted to win the battle first. He would be faced after going through it. Unfortunately, this matter was not easy to deal with. The three elite soldiers of Cao’s army attacked fiercely.

Lu Qian ran to the junction of Xuzhou and Cao Cao, intending to return to Taishan County at any time, but Sishui was blocking the way forward.

Gao Shun touched and wanted to call his troops in his headquarters without any problem and could win, but in this way, Teng Kingdom would no longer have the guards.

What's more, Lu Qian has a special identity. Lu Qian is similar to Zang Ba, and he is considered a hero. Whether to suppress or capture it or not depends on Lu Bu.

When Lu Bu received the news, he did not dare to neglect. He immediately clicked on the 1,500 cavalry of Xuzhou, Feng Xiong, Hua Ji, and Cao Ping. He also called Zang Ba and Sun Guan's 500 people, including 2,000 cavalrymen, and he did not even take the baggage to set off north all night, and arrived at the post station to rest in the middle of the night.

I walked quickly and walked more than a hundred miles before I settled down at the inn to rest.

"Lord, what's the matter? You're so anxious. Could it be that Cao Cao came to attack Teng Kingdom?" Zang Ba asked Lu Bu.

Lu Bu shook his head: "Cao Cao didn't come, but Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Xiahou Yuan had already arrived in Rencheng. One or two hundred miles away from our Sishui River, Gao Shun transferred all the troops and horses from his headquarters. There was also a Lu Qian who came with more than 4,000 people. I don't know what it means. You have an old relationship with him. Then come over and talk to see if you can reach an agreement."

Lu Qian, the relationship was really good, after all, they were all bandits of Mount Tai at that time.

Zang Ba was not afraid of facing Cao Cao's three famous generals. After all, the Xuzhou army was also strong and powerful. Gao Shun was trapped in the camp. He was the elite of the Xuzhou army, the Xuzhou iron cavalry, and hundreds of cavalry from Zang Ba's army also had a chance of winning against Cao Cao's three main forces.

The inn was really built right at the beginning. I didn’t need to bring horse materials when commuting troops. The well water and firewood were prepared.

The light cavalry marched quickly, and reached the Teng Kingdom's new recruits camp the next afternoon.

Zang Ba was shocked that there was such a large barracks hidden here.

"All these are actually Tun Ding. Just use weapons to scare Cao's army."

Zang Baxin said that this lord had hidden deep enough, and there were no such strong garrisons. However, garrisons were also real garrisons. It was not easy to raise soldiers these days, and they would farm when they were not trained, otherwise food and drink would be a problem.
