Chapter 402
"No notification is allowed, I'll just check it out and leave."
“Yes, yes.”
Xu Shu went in and found that this place turned out to be a horse farm for raising mules.
Among the herd of thousands of mares, there were dozens of strong black donkeys.
Not far away, there are hundreds of mules about two years old who are undergoing training, pulling carts, arable land, etc.
Xu Shu didn't understand how others managed it, and he couldn't give any suggestions.
After walking around inside, I found that this place is really good. Moreover, grazing and feeding are combined. In order to make the horses run more, the forage will be scattered on different racks.
Adopt the pattern of grazing in groups, a group of foals, a group of foals, and a group of pregnant women.
The little mule was basically grown up at about two years old, and she was tall and stout, far taller than their mother, Hun Horse.
Cao Cao has very few mules on the territory, and it is still very rare to see so many mules.
Xu Shu asked the supervisor in charge of finding mules: "What are the advantages of this mule compared to horses and donkeys? Is it accurate?"
The supervisor was a little angry: "This is promoted by General Lu, and it must be accurate. The male donkey and the mare are called horse mules. Horse mules have many advantages. They are better than horses. You should know that horses have irritable personalities and often kick to death and hurt people. Horses and mules cannot be as fast as horses, but they are stronger than horses, and are especially good at ploughing land and pulling carts. Two mules can cultivate seven or eight acres of land a day. The main thing is that they eat less than horses, and they are more attached to the countryside."
Xu Shu didn't know much about mules, he only had to be obedient.
Not far away, a hundred people lined up to apply for mule installment with their household registration books.
Large animals like mules are good at working. If the official farm pays 30% of the money, the mules will be taken home for use and the final payment will be paid within three years.
Xu Shu was extremely supportive of this policy, which could restore productivity as soon as possible.
Seeing the inventory of large animals, pigs and sheep in Xuzhou, Xu Shu now believes that Xuzhou has solved the problem of food and clothing.
Xu Shu was very happy and set up to go back.
A man was sitting on the roadside wiping tears, and a woman next to him was carrying a big package.
Xu Shu stopped and asked, "Man, why are you crying? Is there anything difficult?"
"My family has accumulated six stagnant money in two years. I queued up early this morning and wanted to buy a mule to go back. But the government reviewed it and said it was unqualified?"
Xu Shu turned over and got off the horse and asked, "Why don't you sell it to you?"
"Hey, I fell my legs and feet when I was a kid and I didn't walk very well."
It turned out that this man was a little lame.
"This is unreasonable, I'll go find him."
Xu Shu took the couple back to the mule farm and found the master: "This man has bad legs and feet, isn't he more in need of animals? Why not sell it to him?"
"Sir, I am also doing things according to the rules. If I have poor legs and feet, I cannot apply for mules or horses if I have a disabled person. Although mules are gentle and are fine most of the time, they are unavoidable to lose their temper occasionally. If I have a bad legs and feet, I will not act smoothly. If I get hit, my life may be gone. I have absolutely no favoritism for this matter. You can report it truthfully."
Xu Shu thought about it again and said that he was right.
Such a big mule, if you really get angry, you can't hold it back.
The Lord Bo said again: "He has six or seven stagnant coins on him, so he can go to the market to buy a small donkey. The small donkey is small and although it is not good for cultivated land, he can also do some farm work. The most important thing is to be easy to use."
Xu Shu patted the man on the shoulder: "It makes sense for the government to make such arrangements. You and your wife can buy a small donkey, and they can pull a cart or a mill. The mule is too big and sometimes it is difficult to control."
"Okay sir." The couple turned around and left.
Xu Shu went west and arrived near Teng Kingdom. He left the mountains and saw the prosperity of Xuzhou.
There are four lanes in both directions of the road, and two carriages gallop across the opposite direction without slowing down. Next to the avenue are pear trees, persimmon trees, etc. planted with tall trunks.
There are carriages, horse riders, and walking on the road. Pedestrians walk on both sides of the road, and cars and horses walk in the middle of the road.
Business and travelers all have good expressions, and most of them are full of confidence.
There was also a young man who was fifteen or sixteen who galloped on the river beach.
Moreover, I learned along the way that Xuzhou has birth subsidies and distributing milk powder to children without milk has caused a large number of children in Xuzhou.
There are as many as 300,000 children every year.
This speed is quite fast, and the population can be repeated in more than ten years.
Xu Shu returned to Xuzhou, and Lu Bu was practicing recruits. This time it was considered a big recruit, recruiting 30,000 recruits from Xuzhou.
"Yuanzhi is back. How can he experience this along the way? Can Xuzhou solve the problem of food and clothing?"
"Xuzhou has already solved the problem of food and clothing, and eating and drinking is not a problem. However, the gap between the rich and the poor is still strong, with large households still large households, and farmers still farmers. However, by eating and drinking, the Marquis of Wen is enough to laugh at the princes."
"When Xuzhou is employed, Yuan Zhi is willing to stay and help me."
Xu Shu also inspected the inspection, and it was not appropriate to be arrogant.
Immediately lifted my clothes and said, "Xu Shu pays homage to the lord."
"I am so arrogant that I am like a tiger with wings. I just don't know if you are willing to stay in the military plane of the Central Army, or are you willing to go to the local area to be an official?"
"After this visit, I found that many of my thoughts were wrong in the past. The most important thing is that people eat, wear warm clothes, and live a good life. I am willing to be an official in the local area and benefit the people."
"Wei Xu from Xia Pi has been transferred to Hefei, and you will be appointed as the governor of Xia Pi and manage Xia Pi affairs. The various systems in Xia Pi are relatively mature, and government affairs are not that complicated."
Xu Shu was very happy and gave him the county magistrate as soon as he came. This was not a small position. Kong Rong was the county magistrate of Beihai. Xia Pi was the southern gateway of Xuzhou and was quite important. It was surrounded by plains and the sea in the east, and its products were also quite rich.
Xu Shu first went to the governor's office and studied the relevant regulations. Originally, the course arranged by Chen Gong was a ten-day course, but Xu Shu had memorized it in just two days, which shocked Chen Gong directly. Such a talent is too rare and he should be a good at handling government affairs in the future.
Xia Pi has 3,000 city defense troops, and there is no threat around it, so Xu Shu can handle government affairs with peace of mind.
Lu Bu also had a few days of leisure to handle some military affairs in the army and approve some important government affairs.
Early that morning, the six hundred miles of the post station arrived in a hurry, and the Youzhou war report was reported.
Lu Bu suddenly became nervous and didn't know what the situation was.
Last winter, Tadun attacked and killed Tadun Chanyu at Lulong formation, annihilated more than 40,000 main forces of the Chanyu.
There are more than 200,000 Wuhuan in Liaoxi County, which is always a huge threat.
However, as winter approaches, heavy snow is approaching, and Lu Bu returns to his army.
As soon as the spring of this year, the Xuzhou headquarters issued an order to advance.
With Hao Meng as the main general, Zhao Yun and Gao Lan as the deputy general, there were 15,000 cavalry, 10,000 infantry, and 10,000 strong men. They marched for more than 600 miles and arrived in Liaoxi County in early spring.
More than 6,000 remaining Wuhuan cavalry were annihilated and more than 5,000 prisoners were captured.
According to the established strategy, the Tadun tribe was divided into three, and more than 30,000 people arrived in Lulong with animals, cattle and sheep, and herded horses and sheep around Lulong, calling it Lulong Wuhuan.
The Wuhuan people who remained in western Liaoning were originally two tribes. At that time, it was gathered together due to the strong control of Tadun. Now the two tribes are separated, and the leader calls them the chiefs and are not allowed to use the title of Shanyu.
There were about 30,000 Han people in Liaoxi County, most of whom were descendants of the Han army back then.
Now let them separate and build Liaoxi City. Although it is a very small city, it is nailed here like a nail.
Hao Meng, Zhao Yun, Gao Lan, the bravery of the three armies completely conquered the Wuhuan people.
The three newly appointed chiefs and county magistrates must be at the same level and must be subject to the jurisdiction arrangements of Youzhou.
However, they were still very tolerant of them. Each tribe symbolically paid 20,000 sheepskins and 500 scalpers.
This tax rate is the same as no tax collection, and it will gradually build small towns for them to overwinter in winter.
Zhao Yun's troops built a small town in Liaoxi County, Gaolan's troops returned to Lu Long and Hao Meng returned to Youzhou.
After reading the battle report, Lu Bu was very satisfied. He killed more than 6,000 enemies, but he died less than 1,000 of them.
It can be regarded as a rare victory.
After reading it, Lu Bu handed the battle report to Chen Gong: "Public platform, how do you plan the next step?"
Chen Gong pondered for a moment: "In the past few times, Zhao Yun will not be simple, he can be both civil and military. He has a set of cavalry and can win over the morale of the army. He should be used seriously. He arranged for Zhao Yun to recruit Wuhuan cavalry and form a 15,000 Hu cavalry, return to Jizhou to train troops, and then arrange combat missions after training."
"How to arrange the Liaoxi City under construction? There are still 20,000 people from Central Plains here."
"Appoint Pu Feng as the governor of Liaoxi County, lead 3,000 troops, build cities, and supervise Wuhuan."
Lu Bu hesitated a little. This guy has been with him for five years and has learned well.
"It is difficult for them to stand out under the aura of their lords. They always have to go out and make a fuss. Each has its own destiny, so it is impossible for the lord to take them with them all the time."
"The public station wakes up the dreamer with one word. We need to enable young players and new players. After all, we are all people in our 40s. It's time to give young people a chance to stand out, otherwise the talent will be out of stock."
Lu Bu asked Xu Shitou to call Pu Feng: "Pu Feng, there is a dangerous job to you. Will you hurry up and do it?"
Pu Feng slapped his chest: "Working in a war, you can only play life and you are not afraid of any task."
"I plan to send you to the territory of the people in western Liaoning and Wuhuan to build a small town in a barren land, and be responsible for coordinating the surrounding nomadic tribes, combating horse thieves, and maintaining peace. Are you sure?"
"If I can't win, my head will be cut off by the enemy, so I must be able to complete the mission."
"Okay, now you are appointed as the governor of Liaoxi County. Go and take office in one month."
"Thank you lord."
Pu Feng was so happy that he had been with Lu Bu for many years. He had been a deputy general. He had fought more than a dozen times and thought that his martial arts skills were almost the same, but he had never had the chance to lead troops alone. This time he finally had a chance.
"Remember, force is just the last means. As a deterrent, you have to use your brain and think more often. The situation of the Liaoxi Army is complicated and it is difficult to be a county magistrate."
