Li Rui has been running around in Jiyang, Rangcheng, Duyang and other places these days, busy resettling prisoners, repairing houses, seizing his bodies, and fiddling with some good things at the same time.

The arable land area of ​​these three counties is firmly ranked among the top three in Nanyang County. The land is fertile and the grain output is quite high. Most importantly, the winter wheat planting area is quite large.

Wheat is really not very popular these days. It was mobilized by the government and persuaded the people to plant it. The people reluctantly planted it. Everyone knows that the yield of wheat is much higher than that of millet, but it is too unpalatable and doesn’t like to eat it...what? You said that milling into flour can be processed into various delicious pasta? Dear, you are so naive. Where does mills come from? Do you know that until the Sui and Tang Dynasties, opening mills was still a very profitable business. Even a very important industry under the name of a powerful figure like Yang Su is a large number of mills? I want to make a millstone? First, count how much money is in my pocket!

But famine forced the people to seek change. Under the double blow of natural disasters and war, it is normal for the people to wear clothes without covering their bodies and food. In this case, what everyone thinks is no longer whether they are good or not, but whether they can eat and whether they can eat enough! Therefore, in recent years, the planting area of ​​winter wheat has begun to increase significantly in Guanzhong, Henan, Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi and other regions. For example, Nanyang planted more than 300,000 acres in one breath.

It was growing quite well, but unfortunately, due to the war, the people who planted these winter wheat either died or fled, and these winter wheat almost became ownerless things.

Li Rui attaches great importance to these wheats, because if nothing unexpected happens, they have to rely on these wheats to survive the second half of the year.

However, the growth of these wheat is really not very good. In the eyes of people of this era, it is already very gratifying, but in his opinion, it is simply unreasonable. In modern times, if wheat from several counties grows like this in a good year, I am afraid that people from relevant departments will be cursed to the point of being scolded. He thought about it and probably caused by insufficient fertility in the land. In this era, the hands that supplement the land with fertility was very limited. One was the manure and manure accumulated in daily life, the other was the ash of grass and wood, and some such as pond mud, and then it disappeared. What's bad is that the wheat has a great demand for fertility. If the fertility cannot keep up, the yield will naturally not be much better.

There is no way, only a final remedy.

Fortunately, he grew up in Xinjiang and did not lack this knowledge. After all, he also had to go to school. When he was in school, he met many friends from major farms. From time to time, he was invited to play a farm in the Xinjiang Construction Corps farm. With his influence, he also learned a lot of farming techniques.

For example, how to make soil fertilizer.

He asked someone to collect a large amount of ripe plaster, mix it with fresh manure and soybean powder in proportion, put it in the manure tank to seal and ferment, and take it out and apply it three times after three days. This was taught by a white-haired veteran of the Construction Corps, saying that the fertilizers produced in this way are comparable to ammonia and carbon ammonia. In an era when the fertilizer industry was still backward, they all used this method to top-dress crops. Li Rui tried it and the effect was indeed good.

It was just a bit powerful, and the feces were smelling like a stinking when the manure tank was opened, almost fainting the old farmers watching.

Li Rui mobilized more than 400 manure tanks and used manure produced from the military horse farm and military camps, gypsum produced in the Nanyang gypsum mine, and used assembled a large amount of soil fertilizer. In just a few days, he made him produce 100,000 kilograms. This amount is really not worth mentioning compared to hundreds of thousands of acres of wheat, but he had no choice. The time is really too tight, and the time window for top dressing after the wheat is eared is only a little bit. In a hurry, it can't be made too much. He can only drive out this little bit, so he has to pick the wheat fields with the best growth and apply it. The yield can be increased as much as it can be increased.

Just when he was busy, someone came from Wancheng and asked him to go back quickly.

He mumbled, threw the work at his hands to his subordinates, and rushed back to Wancheng with a quick horse.

As soon as he entered Wancheng, he felt the atmosphere of horror and despair. He saw that many people were escaping from the city with their families. He wondered and grabbed a squire and asked, "What are you running away? What happened in the city?"

The gentry looked frightened: "Nothing happened in the city, but something big happened in Ku County, and the sky collapsed!"

Li Rui asked: "What's wrong?"

The squire said: "The army led by Wang Taiwei was attacked by Jiehu in Ku County, and the entire army was wiped out. Even Wang Taiwei was killed... The sky fell! Everyone said that the Hu people were going to fight to Nanyang next. They took advantage of the Hu people not yet killed, and they packed up Li Xing and took their families to flee to Jiangling!"

Li Rui was stunned and murmured to himself: "Ningping City...Ningping City..." He let go of the gentry's sleeves weakly, muttered this curse-like place name all the way, and came to Wancheng Nanyang Palace without hesitation.

The Nanyang Palace was built in the fifth year of Jian'an. At that time, Emperor Xian of Han appointed his son Liu Feng as the King of Nanyang. Boss Cao naturally wanted to build a royal palace. However, Emperor Xian of Han himself became a puppet, so what is his son? Boss Cao was just trying to build a royal palace when he built the Nanyang Palace. He was quite shabby. Anyway, he didn't plan to let Liu Feng leave Xuchang and become a vassal king. Why is that good to do? This very shabby palace has been destroyed several times in the past hundred years. Fortunately, the degree of destruction was not very large, and he could continue to live in it. So after taking down Wancheng, Sima Fan lived in and regarded it as the highest administrative institution in Nanyang.

In the meeting hall of the royal palace, a group of generals and main strategists had already taken their seats. They all looked solemn, some even turned pale, and were afraid and despaired. Only Beigong Chun was calm and leisurely eating the candy beans fried for him by Li Rui. Seeing Li Rui come in, Sima Fan quickly approached and shouted: "Person Li, you are back!"

Li Rui calmed down and said, "I'm back. I'm so anxious that I'm asking me to come back. What's wrong?"

Sima Fan's hands were trembling slightly: "Three days ago, in Ningping City, more than 100,000 troops led by Taiwei Wang Yan were surrounded by Shi Le. They were killed in just half a day. Even Taiwei Wang was killed, and the King of Donghai was even opened to burn his body..."

Li Rui sat down next to Beigong Chun, stretched out his claws and stuck out his bag of candy beans and grabbed a handful of candy beans hard, threw one into his mouth, and chewed it loudly: "That's all?"

Sima Fan was so anxious that he jumped straight: "What does this mean? Do you know how terrible this is? These tens of thousands of elite soldiers are the last main legion of the Great Jin Dynasty. Now that it is destroyed, the sky of the Great Jin Dynasty is about to collapse!"

Li Rui was still calm: "What does the sky in the Great Jin Dynasty mean that the sky in the Great Jin Dynasty is about to collapse? I'm so happy that the sky in the Great Jin Dynasty collapsed seven or eight years ago when Hu Ma entered the Central Plains!"

Sima Fan: “…”

Really, sooner or later he will make this guy angry to death, which is definitely not a joke!

Jia You looked tragic: "The army of the East China Sea is still there, and the Great Jin still has the power to fight. Now that the army is completely destroyed... The Great Jin is over, we are all over!"

Pei Wei said: "Now this bad news has spread in Wancheng. A large number of gentry and powerful people are terrified. They pack their luggage, help the elderly and children to flee to Jiangling. A large number of ordinary people also escaped. According to this momentum, at most three days, the entire Wancheng will become an empty city."

He looked depressed. It was obvious that the destruction of the main force of the Jin army had a great blow to him and almost defeated him.

Li Rui sighed: "His grandma, I finally took Nanyang and thought I could breathe a sigh of relief, but this happened again... I made you like internal fighting, and I told you to fight in the end! Now, I'm done, go to the underworld to fight slowly!"

He didn't think about saving that army, but firstly, there were so many troubles in Nanyang that people wanted to commit suicide. Secondly, the Wuhuan cavalry, as the main force, was very tired, and the war horses were even more exhausted and sick. He really couldn't take action to save the army that was three or four hundred miles away from him. The only thing he could do was pray that Wang Yan and others would be able to go online in time to avoid this catastrophe. However, the facts proved that this was too unrealistic. This terrible disaster still came as scheduled. At this point, the Western Jin Dynasty completely lost its ability to fight the Huns and Han countries, and there was only one to wait for death!

Beigong Chun said lightly: "We rescued ten thousand imperial guards."

Li Rui was stunned: "When did it happen?"

Sima Fan said: "The army in Donggui had conflicts a few days ago due to unfair distribution of food and grass. More than 10,000 people from the rear army, who had been able to get the minimum distribution of food and grass, left the Donggui team in anger, turned around and ran westward to Nanyang, and wanted to come and defect to us. As a result, in Shangcai, he was attacked by Jiehu Qingqi, and his food was cut off. He was about to fall into a desperate situation, so he had to send people to ask for help. When the king learned about it, he quickly sent General Beigong to lead a thousand Wuhuan cavalry to rescue, successfully annihilated Jiehu Qingqi, and rescued these ten thousand imperial guards."

Li Rui breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not annihilated... That's good, that's good!"

Sima Fan smiled bitterly: "Don't be too happy. These ten thousand imperial guards are among the imperial guards with weak combat power. It is unrealistic to expect them to block them!"

Li Rui widened his eyes: "What do you mean to expect them to block it? Are my three thousand Wuhuan cavalry dead? Are the newly recruited 6,000 Jingzhou soldiers not worthy of having their names? And the 40,000 to 50,000 people who escaped from Guanzhong, who are as deep as the Hu people, are all decorations? Or do you think hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in Nanyang are willing to be ignorant plants and trees, and let the captains cut their swords?"
