Whether you can eat meat is related to the combat effectiveness and morale of the soldiers, so you should pay great attention to it.

Gao Shunjun’s pig farm is very scattered, with one farm for every 1,000 people, and dozens of pigs in each farm, both large and small. Since it is a newly built pig farm, it is still in its growth stage and has been transported from Teng Country to here in recent times.

Lu Bu and Gao Shun agreed to transfer someone to become the governor of Jinan County after a while.

Gao Shun still leads troops to be the main force.

After a few days of rest, I went south and went to Xuzhou and got better, and I quickly returned to Teng Country.

Zhang Liao, Lu Tong, Chen Lan and others led a large group of troops back to the Xuzhou camp.

Lu Bu, Feng Xiong, Hua Ji, Xu Shitou and others stayed in Teng Kingdom. Lu Bu wanted to go around Teng Kingdom and check whether all the work was in place.

There are still 10,000 new soldiers in the Teng Kingdom military camp, and they planted 40,000 acres of land.

The 10,000 acres of potatoes planted in early spring have been harvested, and the newly planted corn has reached its knees.

As for the spring corn, it has started to grow and harvest in no time.

Lu Bu pointed to the cornfield not far away: "The cornfield over there is so strange. Not only is there no grass in the field, but even the corn leaves at the lower part are gone. Go and see what's going on."

This is a corn field near the lake, about one thousand acres. Lu Bu looked at the grass in the field so clean that he could hardly see the grass.

Xu Shitou walked around the field a few times: "The weedings in this field are so clean."

Lu Bu deeply agreed that in the era without herbicides, weeds were a major harm to farmland.

When Lu Bu saw several children pulling carts, he called over: "Is this corn field Zhuzhubo managed?"

"Return to General, Zhu Zhubo is in charge. General later, I will call Zhubo."

After a while, Zhu Bin came over on a horse.

"My lord is doing a surprise inspection, but fortunately nothing happened and messed up, otherwise it would be certain that he would be scolded."

"I'll ask you, what's going on in this corn field? The weeds are gone and the corn leaves below are gone. How did you do it?"

Zhu Bin pointed to the big white goose swimming in the lake and said, "This was originally a goose activity venue. It was a pity to think that it was empty in spring, so he planted corn. There were many weeds in the corn field, and the goose ate weeds and ate the leaves on the lower part of the corn by the way."

"Can you put geese to weed? It's very troublesome to weed so many corn fields manually?" Lu Bu asked.

Zhu Bin shook his head: "No, the corn field is too large and dense, and it is easy to lose. This corn field is surrounded by a net to prevent loss. You should know that there are many wild animals in this season."

Zhu Bin’s proficiency in breeding is admirable. He is so good at raising pigs and raising geese. In his words, raising geese is just about exchanging grass for meat, which is very cost-effective.

The biggest problem with poultry farming is to prevent diseases, which require group feeding and consumption as soon as possible in the appropriate season.

Raising geese and ducks, in addition to meat and eggs, feathers also have important uses, such as keeping warm and arrow feathers. Lu Bu also invented the quill pen.

There are not many geese and ducks in Teng Kingdom. Datou manages it in Song Xian, Pengcheng. There are tens of thousands of duck eggs a day and thousands of goose eggs.

"These are all the credits of the lord. Without Wenhou rice, a high-yield crop like sweet potatoes cannot raise so many poultry and livestock. It's just that it's just a matter of time before it spreads out. The lord must make plans early."

"Okay, it has not been circulated on a large scale yet. The potatoes that Chen Deng stole last year have only been planted in Xiaopei for about one acre this year. They are at least three years ahead of the princes. If they still can't beat them up, then don't play."

Pig farms and horse farms are the top priority of Teng Country.

Why are there so many horse farms in Teng Country? It is because Teng Country has fertile land and a flat plain, which is most suitable for growing corn. To the east is the vast mountainous area of ​​Taishan County, where a large number of sweet potatoes and peanuts are planted in the mountainous areas.

Corn stalks, peanut seedlings and sweet potato seedlings are three kinds of excellent forages, so the horse farms in Teng Kingdom raise as many as 5,000 Hun horses.

There are three goals for directional cultivation of foals for breeding horses. The first is the best horse. As military horses, cavalry is the mainstream of the times, fast maneuvering and strong combat effectiveness. The second goal is to use horses to breed farmers and horses. The second generation of horses will be sold to the people and enter agricultural production. When the agricultural horses reach a certain number, they will have a breeding foundation. The third goal is to cultivate mules. Mules cannot reproduce and need to be cultivated based on horses and donkeys.

The habit of ox plowing has a long history in the Central Plains. There are very mature technical skills in raising cattle and training cattle. But the beef is so delicious. Whether it is the Yellow Turban Army's rioters or the princes' rioters, they will stew the cattle when they catch it, and even if they don't stew it, they will be pulled. Therefore, there are very few cattle in the Teng Kingdom area. Nowadays, cattle are trafficked from Langya and its eastern part of Langya.

The number is small and rare. The local big-name households with vision in Teng Country have set their sights on the breeding of cattle and started breeding. They will probably be able to plow large-scale cattle in a few years.

"The lord doesn't seem to care about ox plowing. There are official horse farms and donkey farms, but there are the fewest cattle farms."

"Yes, the resources for cattle are too few. Although cattle can plow the land, the speed of the land is far less than that of mules. I plan to focus on developing mules. It is not that plowing oxen is not undeveloped, but the government will not do this and leave business to the commercial bank. The second generation of grassland cattle breeding can breed land and pull carts, so these businesses will be handed over to the commercial bank."

"It's too hard to transport the cattle. It's a big deal to travel forty or fifty miles a day when driving the cattle. This trip is really not enough for less than a month."

The ox on the grassland cannot match the speed of a horse, but it is still OK for fifty or sixty miles a day. It is a great loss of weight when walking long distances, so try not to walk as much as possible every day, and go south a little bit.

But bulls are very popular, and there are always people doing profitable businesses.

When Lu Bu returned to Xuzhou, it was already midsummer. The weather was so hot that he could not wear armor at all. There was also a tacit understanding among the princes, and no war was launched at this time.

Lu Bu went home to see his wife and children, and his two sons could even sit down. He was so fat, wearing a small bellyband and was slapping there.

After Lu Bu calmed down for a while, Wang Heng actually came.

"Congratulations to the lord, three more."

Lu Bu was confused. Yan and Cao looked at Lu Bu straight, what was going on?

"The king is bo, why did you give birth to three more?"

"The son of Red Rabbit Horse, last spring, Red Rabbit Horse stayed with more than 20 good horses for a month. Now there are sixteen foals and three mule foals."

Yan couldn't help laughing beside him and said, "I thought it was the general's outer room that gave birth to it. It turned out to be the child of the Red Rabbit Horse."

This is a big deal for the children of the Red Rabbit Horse. It is easy to get a fortune, but it is hard to find a good horse.
