Chapter 510 One day, one hundred thousand Shu robes will come out of Yuguan
After eating, Zhou Zun left. Si Hu obviously couldn't eat anymore and wanted to stuff it into his belly. In desperation, Xu Mu had no choice but to ask Sun Xun to come over and carry a few people back.
Touching the wooden box in his arms, it was like touching a treasure. Xu Mu turned his head to the sky and exhaled comfortably.
…
In the first ten days of the laurel month, the mountain breeze carries the fragrance of rice and blows into people's noses.
"The fragrance of rice flowers tells of a good harvest, and the sound of frogs sounds."
"My lord, what a beautiful poem."
Under the golden waves of rice, everywhere you look, there are good signs of a good harvest. Even though it is not yet the harvest time, many people are already gathering on the edge of the fields, eating and drinking, and celebrating non-stop.
"This season's rice in Shuzhong..." Jia Zhou's voice was excited. "Not only is it popular with the people, it has saved many people from famine in troubled times. Among them, Shuzhou's military strength should also be able to recruit 20,000 to 30,000 more people."
"Wenlong, it's still not enough." Xu Mu quickly calmed down while feeling happy.
"In the coming year of harvest, I want to use the rice from Shuzhong to feed the people of Shuzhou and Muyunzhou. There will be no disaster of hunger and no disaster of Yizi."
"My Lord is righteous."
After entering Sichuan, the most important thing Xu Mu paid close attention to was the rice in the nine counties in central Sichuan. For this reason, he put a lot of effort into fertilizing, digging rivers, and killing locust eggs... These methods were used in
Later generations may not be so great, but in today's Shuzhou, they have already made some good achievements.
When cotton, like rice, can be sown in large areas, the situation in the entire Erzhou area will probably be even worse.
But at the moment, whether it is Shuzhou or Muyun State, they still have to be cautious. To be honest, the land of the two states is completely sufficient to gain momentum. The prerequisite is that these two states must not allow any mistakes before Shuzhou takes off.
.
There are unpredictable weather conditions, and Xu Mu only hopes that the sky above Shuzhou and Muyunzhou will be clear for a while longer.
After looking at the rice fields, Xu Mu got on his carriage and settled down with something on his mind.
Behind him, countless people still knelt down and worshiped without stopping.
"My king, go slowly!"
"My king, I would like to send you my king——"
…
"My lord's benevolent rule should be an example for everything." In the carriage, Jia Zhou laughed.
"Wen Long, you and Bo Lie are starting to look more and more like Mr. Chen. By the way, is there anything going on with Bo Lie recently?"
When it came to military affairs, Jia Zhou stopped laughing and his tone was a bit solemn.
"No, but the information Bo Lie sent back said that Cangzhou's military strength seemed to have increased a lot. On the border of Chuzhou, two to three thousand bandits suddenly appeared, trying to rush into Cangzhou...
The defenders of Cangzhou were wiped out in one day."
Xu Mu was startled. He knew without thinking that there were no two or three thousand bandits. They were just sent by Zuo Shiren to test them out of fear of tarnishing his reputation.
"My lord, be careful of the daughter of the Su family in Cangzhou. Unfortunately, many things about her background have been cut off and cannot be found out at all."
"I just feel that a person who appears out of nowhere is a woman... no matter what, she will not be weak."
Xu Mu nodded.
Jia Zhou's analysis was not wrong. The identity of the daughter of the Su family was indeed a bit strange.
"Lord, there is good news." Jia Zhou, who had a solemn face at first, said in a soothing voice, "I just received information that the King of Yuzhou has captured Huzhou."
"Fighted?"
"Indeed, Yuzhou's black armored warriors are unstoppable, and coupled with the roundabout attack by the elite rice-selling army, the entire Huzhou has been captured by the king of Yuzhou. The alliance of the four kings of Hebei was defeated and had to temporarily abandon Huzhou.
Prefecture, gather troops in Yezhou, and continue to fight against the king of Yuzhou."
Xu Mu smiled and said, "As expected of Uncle Chang, the invincible Chang Silang. This time, Gongsunzu may have a headache."
"I think that after capturing Huzhou, the king of Yuzhou and the nine-fingered man will suspend the war and stabilize the situation in Huzhou."
"That's how it should be."
Tsuneshiro controls the entire world, the richest three inner city states, as well as the great gentry families that have survived for thousands of years. In addition, he is a rice merchant who is involved in the same industry... Whether it is his background or the right time and place, he has everything.
An immeasurable advantage.
All it takes is a suitable opportunity to really take the world by storm.
Jia Zhou paused and sighed, "My lord, there is another news. This news may be a bit scary."
"Wenlong, what's the news?"
"After the conquest of Huzhou, many aristocratic families in the inner city jointly submitted a letter asking the King of Yuzhou to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor."
"Damn it!" Xu Mu suddenly became angry.
"Wenlong, what happened next?"
"Liu Zhongde rushed over overnight and scolded the family who had bewitched and proclaimed himself emperor in front of the king of Yuzhou. I heard that he even beat people."
"Liu Zhongde is a man of great strategism." Xu Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
If Uncle Chang dares to proclaim himself emperor at this time, he will definitely make enemies with the thirty states in the world. Regardless of whether Ji Chao is present or not, this is actually a very simple truth. If the first bird is shot, Chang Shilang will win even if he has more soldiers.
, even under the current circumstances, it cannot be stopped.
Even if he had the jade seal in his hand, Yuan An would not die and the Imperial Court would still be there, but he would still be a false emperor after all.
Xu Mu only hopes that no matter what, Uncle Chang will not take this step first. Even if he does, he still needs half of the country as a source of confidence.
"The general trend of the world is changing. No matter how far away it is, even the land of the Lord's two states, there is only temporary peace. Liangzhou, Cangzhou, and even Zuo Shiren's side, under the current situation, will not
You need to be extremely careful if you sit back and watch your lord grow stronger."
"Wenlong, I know."
The current situation faced by Shuzhou is that one is backward in heritage, and the other is insufficient generals. Regarding the latter, Xu Mu has become the chief helmsman of Thirty States, and the situation has gradually improved.
After receiving the letter, many righteous hall masters gradually came to Shu and came to discuss with him after being introduced by Xiao Xiaoyao.
Of course, most of them are still cautious and do not fully trust him as the new chief helmsman of the Thirty States. However, Xu Mu is not worried. It will take some time for this matter to get on the right track.
.
"In half a month, the rice in Shu will be ready to be harvested." After Bing Shi finished speaking, he mentioned the rice matter again, and Jia Zhou's smile once again filled the carriage.
"Food is the most important thing for the people. Without famine, the lord's army can leave Shu and reopen the territory!"
"One day, our vast army in Shuzhou, led by my lord, will compete in thirty states and defeat the enemy seven thousand miles away!"
Listening, Xu Mu's heart was agitated for a long time. Suddenly he raised his head and looked out through the car window at the sunset. Things that were previously out of reach seemed to be getting closer and closer to him, and he could see them clearly.
"One day!"
"A hundred thousand Shu robes came out of Yuguan and conquered thirty states in the world!"
