Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 51 Jia Xu's Transformation

Luoyang City is the center of the world. If Liu Yu wants to revive the glory of the Han Dynasty, he has to start by overthrowing Dong Zhuo and changing the center.

Now that everything in Hulao Pass has been properly arranged, it's time to go back to Luoyang and have a showdown with Dong Zhuo.

However, Dong Zhuo still has 20 Xiliang army guards under his command, and it is not a good strategy to confront him head-on.

Liu Yu would not assassinate Dong Zhuo like Cao Cao, although the success rate of the assassination is very high in terms of his force.

But after killing Dong Zhuo, there are still 20 Xiliang troops.

Let's not talk about how Liu Yu escaped after the assassination, but just say that the 20 Xiliang army will definitely become a fierce beast after Dong Zhuo's death.

Luoyang City and even the entire Central Plains will be plunged into endless smoke.

In history, this was also true after Dong Zhuo's death. 20 Xiliang troops rushed into Chang'an City, burned, killed and looted for a few days, and then started a civil war to fight for control of the emperor, resulting in no peace in Chang'an area for more than ten years.

If you want to get rid of the cancer, cut your wings first. If I can use the 20 Xiliang army for my use, it will not only solve Dong Zhuo's problem, but also make these Xiliang elites a great help in revitalizing the great man.

So Liu Yu decided to wait until he arrived in Luoyang and start by infiltrating the Xiliang army, and minimize Dong Zhuo's influence in the army by means of differentiation and overhead, so as to achieve his ultimate goal of overthrowing him.

Before leaving, Liu Yu once again clarified the division of labor and responsibilities of each general. Zhang Liao and Zhang Fei were responsible for commanding the troops and drills, while Jia Xu was in charge of management and infrastructure.

There is a large open space behind Hulao Pass, and not far away are the two tributaries of the Yellow River, Manshui and Sishui.

If a city is built here, it will not only improve the standard of living in Hulao Pass, but also increase the defense capability behind Hulao Pass.

With Chengmou County secretly providing support, the city's infrastructure construction should not be done.

But there are people who can be regarded as a city, and what can attract people to settle here is naturally land and food.

There is a lot of land on the back of Hulao Pass. If there are several particularly high-yielding crops produced here, it will definitely attract people from the surrounding counties to settle here.

So in the evening before leaving, Liu Yu decided to leave Jia Xu with two "magic objects" to help him attract more people.

"Ding, one hundred catties of potatoes, one hundred catties of sweet potatoes, a total of 1000 yuan and five elements."

Liu Yu bought two large bags of potatoes and sweet potatoes from the system supermarket.

He first picked out a few potatoes, cut them into small pieces, put them in a pot and stewed them with the meat, and then roasted the cleaned sweet potatoes on the fire.

Not long after, Jia Xu was invited to come here.

"Wen He came just in time, come and try to see if the potatoes are cooked."

Jia Xu had never heard of what a potato was, so she picked a piece out of curiosity.

Jia Xu took a bite and felt that it was soft and fragrant, and asked in amazement: "My lord's stew is very delicious. I don't know where I picked the wild vegetables!"

Liu Yu smiled mysteriously, "This is not a wild vegetable that can be picked at will, but a new crop that can produce a thousand catties per mu!"

Jia Xu was shocked from ear to ear when he heard the words, thinking that this thing is the yam that the lord mentioned before, but why the lord also calls it a potato!
Liu Yu saw his doubts and explained: "This thing is not yam, but a new species that is easier to cultivate and store than yam. The two bags are used as seeds."

At this time, Jia Xu was even more shocked. He looked at the two bags of new crops beside Liu Yu, and thought that these two bags of seeds would produce more seeds in a few years.

In a few years, maybe the whole world will be able to eat this delicious potato.

Apart from shock, Jia Xu was also very excited. He didn't dare to ask his lord where he got the new crop, and it was still in two big bags.

Because Jia Xu felt that this might be related to the secret of the banished immortal.

In fact, Liu Yu is not a banished immortal, and he has already thought about how to explain the origin of these two new species.

It was all pushed to the Hu merchants in the Western Regions.

It's just that Jia Xu didn't ask too much and didn't explain too much.

"Potatoes can be used as a dish or as a staple food. They can be eaten roasted or boiled just like sweet potatoes."

At this time, the sweet potatoes were also roasted, and Liu Yu motioned for him to pick up a piece to taste.

Seeing that the oil left on top gave off a fragrant and sweet smell under the heating of the flame, Jia Xu guessed that this sweet potato must not be ordinary.

Following Liu Yu's example, he broke open and took a bite. He felt that the sweet potato was soft and sweet, and after eating one, he felt full.

Jia Xu sighed in his heart, "If such a fetish can be spread all over the world, then no one will die of hunger in the world anymore."

Liu Yu saw that he had realized the magic of these two crops, so he handed the two bags beside him into his hands.

Liu Yu said: "After I went to Luoyang, you started to cultivate secretly. According to my method, these two kinds of crops can produce a thousand catties per mu.

"However, only a small amount of harvested fruits can be eaten, and most of them have to be preserved for seeds. When enough fruits can be produced, we will try to spread these two crops to the world. I don't think it will take a few years All the common people in Dahan can live a life of food and clothing.”

As Liu Yu's loyal subordinate, this is not the first time he has seen such a miraculous new thing.

The fine salt before, the map of Dongyi Island and the countries of the Western Regions mentioned by Liu Bei later, and today's potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Jia Xu feels that each of them is a product that transcends this era, and each of them can change the future pattern of this world.

Liu Yu held so many fetishes, but he didn't use them to strengthen his strength immediately, but thought about when to take them out to benefit the people of the world. Such a noble quality is much greater than those princes who only care about immediate interests.

Infected by Liu Yu's charismatic personality with a world in mind, Jia Xu, who used to be a "poison man" who only knew how to plot against others, also slowly changed.

He has become wider and wider, and he knows how to care about the people.

It is lucky to be Liu Yu's subordinate, and it is even more meaningful to witness and create miracles with him.

At this time, Jia Xu suddenly felt that the task on his shoulders was heavy, but it was worth it to be able to benefit the people all over the world.

So Jia Xu stood up and bowed respectfully, "Don't worry, my lord, this is a matter of Wanmin's subordinates, and I will do my best to complete it!"

"Ding, Jia Xu's internal affairs ability has been greatly improved, and the mental skill value has increased to 95. Do you want to empower this general with the Five Elements attribute?"

Empowerment?Five elements attribute!
It turns out that when the mental skill value of a character reaches 95 or more, there is a chance to increase the five elements attribute.

This discovery made Liu Yu very happy immediately, thinking that he would not have to worry about not being able to recruit generals with five elements attributes in the future, because he could train them by himself.

"Execute the empowerment immediately!"

"Ding, empowerment requires 2000 yuan of five-element coins, or the completion of tasks issued by the system!"

I have to spend five elements coins to empower.

Two thousand is too expensive, and Liu Yu only has 1500 five-element coins left at this time.

It seems that if you want to empower Jia Xu with the five elements attribute, you can only complete the task issued by the system.
