Chapter 308 Very Busy

While Sima Fan was wielding Fang Qiu to kill everyone, Li Rui and Bei Gongjing were doing very inconspicuous work.

Bei Gongjing is training the army.

Now most of the armies commanded by Nanyang Xiaoting are veterans with rich practical experience. Basically, there is no need to teach techniques and tactics. All she has to do is to arrest the generals and fight to the death with every sergeant.

If he refused to retreat, he would be forced to react with a muscular response that was more afraid of military discipline than death.

Her solution is to hunt.

Funiu Mountain has high mountains and lush forests, and there are many venomous snakes and ferocious beasts. It is autumn again. Black bears, wild boars and other ferocious beasts frequently come down the mountain, and injuries occur from time to time. Bei Gongjing's target is these ferocious beasts. Every day, she will select the forest with the most ferocious beasts and command

Thousands of infantrymen surrounded the entire mountain, and then gradually narrowed the encirclement to force out the hungry beasts. When the hunt begins, no matter how ferocious beasts they encounter, every sergeant must nail him to death.

From your position, no matter whether it is a wild boar or a black bear charging towards you, you are not allowed to take a step back. The only thing you are allowed to do is to pick up the weapon in your hand and fight with it. If the beast escapes from your position

, then you will be out of luck!

Similarly, if the beast escapes from the defense zone of any group of people, that group of people, from officers to ordinary sergeants, will all be severely punished.

This method of military training is undoubtedly cruel and unfair. In the mountains and forests, the terrain is complex and wild beasts roam freely. There will always be some sergeants who have tried their best but still let the wild beasts escape. If we punish these sergeants severely at this time,

It was unkind. But Bei Gongjing couldn't help it. She had fought bloody battles with the Hu people in Luoyang for almost three years. She knew very well what the Jin army was like. There were many who fought bravely to kill the enemy. There were countless people who tried their best to escape.

If you can't cultivate iron-like military discipline and face the cavalry coming from the wild, everyone will use other methods to escape. Even if you give them sophisticated weapons and equipment, they will lose in the end!

In this world, people's hearts have long been in chaos. Everyone has hundreds of thoughts. It is impossible to use gentle methods to train them into an iron army that will not hesitate to follow orders and prohibitions. It is impossible. There is no choice.

This method can be used.

Facts have proved that although this training method is cruel, it is very effective. The enemies who fought her later found out in despair that no matter how strong your soldiers and horses are, if you are targeted by her, you will die!

Li Rui...

He is even more hopeless and is currently squatting in the fields of Jiyang.

At this time, the whole north was in chaos. After Liu Cong razed Luoyang to the ground, he rushed to Guanzhong and beat up Sima Mo. Shi Le first made a surprise attack on Mengcheng and captured Gou Xi, who was indulging in pleasure and dreaming, and then lost his heart.

He turned around and went north to beat the beggar army until he begged for mercy. Finally, he pointed the bloody knife at his former good friend Wang Mi. Cao Yi from Shandong was busy cleaning up those who disobeyed him in Qingzhou.

Big and small forces, Bingzhou Liu Kun was busy causing trouble for the Xiongnu and Han Dynasty. Duan Wuwuchen, the good son-in-law of Wang Jun of Youzhou, died after being crowned king. As a result, the relationship between Wang Jun and Duan Xianbei underwent subtle changes. This man

The illegitimate son who holds the most powerful Northern Cavalry in the Jin Dynasty doesn't care about this and is busy preparing to claim the title of emperor... Yes, he doesn't care about the Nanyang court.

Is there anyone under his command who doesn’t support his claim to be emperor?

It's simple, just kill him and leave only those who agree. Doesn't that mean everyone agrees with him becoming emperor? He, the king, is very democratic!

The world is so chaotic, but Li Rui's side is peaceful and peaceful.

He was inspecting his experimental field with Zhuge Hui.

This experimental field is three acres long, and all crops grown in it are millet.

It can be seen from the growth rate that the millet in this field is slower than that in the surrounding fields. This is normal. He planted it in mid-April. He planted it after the wheat harvest, which was almost two months late.

Month, can't it be a lot slower? The reason why I chose to plant wheat after harvesting is mainly to break two stereotypes.

First: There is no way to grow two crops of food in one year;

Second: Grain cannot be planted in the wheat fields immediately after harvesting. You have to rest for half a year.

There is no way, people in this era have not tried two crops a year, or they have tried, but failed, and no one dares to continue trying. At this time, the planting area of ​​winter wheat in the north is very limited, and it will not be until the second harvest after the autumn harvest.

The few months before Grain Rain are completely wasted. Many people have thought about making use of this time. Everyone still adheres to the tradition and grows food one season a year. Whether it is a good harvest or a bad harvest, it is completely up to God.

.

As for the stereotype that a field that has been planted with wheat cannot continue to grow food, where does it come from...

It’s thanks to wheat’s strong ability to absorb water and fertilizer. High crop yields often mean more water and fertilizer. After all, plants have to abide by the law of energy conservation. The fertilizers available in ancient times were really limited, and the fertility in the soil was naturally limited.

Very well, wheat consumes 77,888 yuan in one season. If you plant millet again, the fertility will not be able to keep up, and you will also plant white seeds. Therefore, after planting wheat, the land cannot be used for growing grain. You have to plant some.

Crops that can nourish the soil, such as alfalfa, can restore soil fertility.

The excessive use of land resources may also be an important reason why wheat has not become a staple food in China.

None of these problems were a problem for Li Rui. He specially selected seeds that could mature in 120 days, used the method he learned from the Construction Corps to prepare soil fertilizers and applied them to crops, and also invited the most experienced farmers to help.

, the crops in these acres of land are taken care of so well. The plants are obviously taller and denser than those sown in the surrounding areas during the Grain Rain season. This once again proves that as long as there is enough fertilizer and scientific management, even

Very ordinary seeds can also produce good harvests.

Zhuge Hui looked at the few acres of millet, pulled up the leaves to compare his height, and said to Li Rui with a smile: "This millet is growing really well. I have never seen such a good crop before." Li Rui

, I didn’t expect you to know how to farm, it’s really amazing.”

Li Rui said: "I'm just talking about it. If I were asked to plant it, I would definitely not be able to grow it well. What's really remarkable is these husbands. Thanks to their careful care, these crops can be grown so well."

The old farmers who were working in the fields were flattered: "Sir, please stop saying this, you are offending the common people! Without the wonderful ideas of the Sheriff, how could the common people grow crops so well!"

Li Rui waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite. You are all good at growing crops. Without your help, I would definitely make a mess of these crops."

The old farmers didn't even dare to scream. Although they were quite proud of growing the crops well, the problem was that the crops in these few acres of land were growing so well that they would have been able to offer auspiciousness to the emperor in peacetime. How could they dare?

Greedy for this credit!

——Yes, in ancient times, growing crops well was also a kind of auspiciousness. Three millet plants grew in the yard of the Great Magister Liu Xiu’s house. Each plant was one foot taller than ordinary ones, and each plant had nine stems.

The ear is regarded as a symbol of auspiciousness and is called the "Auspiciousness of Jiahe". This matter has always been talked about by people in Nanyang. However, it seems that the auspiciousness of Jiahe is not very valuable now, because Li Rui's few acres of millet

Almost every plant meets the standards of Jiahe Zhirui!

Seriously disrupting the market order!

An old farmer asked: "Master Sheriff, you only sowed seeds in mid-June, do you really have time to harvest? Winter is not long now."

Li Rui said: "Don't worry, it will definitely come in time. Look, these ears of grain are about to start filling. There are only two months left before harvesting. There is no way it will start snowing in October."

?”

The old farmer smiled honestly: "That's impossible. Although this thief is making life more and more difficult for people, it's still not going to snow in October."

Li Rui said: "As long as it doesn't snow in October, it will be enough."

With that said, he took Zhuge Hui and ran to another experimental field.

This experimental field is planted with soybeans, and it covers several acres. Li Rui planted nothing else but wanted to get some soy sauce to eat. He had had enough of living without soy sauce. In addition, he was also growing in Xiang Nanyang

The common people set an example and used facts to prove to them that it is possible to achieve two crops a year in the Central Plains. If they are worried that winter will come before the millet is harvested, they can plant some soybeans after the wheat harvest. This growth cycle is shorter than that of millet.

, relatively safe.

No matter how unpalatable the beans and rice are, they are much better than bark and grass roots, right?

These soybeans also grew vigorously and produced plump pods. Zhuge Hui smiled and said: "These soybeans are also growing very well. One and a half, or even two, dendrobiums can be harvested from one acre."

Li Rui suddenly felt melancholy...

One dendrobium is sixty kilograms, one and a half to two dendrobiums. Doesn't it mean that he worked so hard that he could only harvest ninety to one hundred and twenty kilograms of soybeans from one acre of land?

My God, this harvest is so bad!

But think about it, the yield per mu of soybeans has always been low. Even in the 21st century, when genetically modified seeds with chemical fertilizers and pesticides have been introduced, the yield per mu has not exceeded 500 kilograms. In this world without chemical fertilizers and pesticides

Third, in an era without modern breeding technology, it is really no small miracle to be able to break through 100 pounds!

It’s all the result of soil fertilizers!

Zhuge Hui looked at him and smiled: "You really dare to think about planting two seasons of food in a year. Are you really not afraid of losing money and not even getting the seeds back?"

Li Rui said: "You have to give it a try, otherwise you will just watch the fields lie idle for half a year without planting anything?"

It’s not like we didn’t plant anything at all, otherwise some crops were planted in the wheat fields after harvesting, but they were not grains, but alfalfa.

Alfalfa is a good thing. It can be eaten by people and livestock. It can also increase the fertility of the soil. Some people in the north who have the conditions will plant alfalfa after harvesting wheat. Firstly, it can solve the demand for vegetables. Secondly, it can provide food for farmers.
