Zhi Xuan

The historian's move is naturally extraordinary.

Lin Zu was so strong before, he didn't even open his mouth when the whip was discounted.This failed for half an hour, and the method on the silk was not used halfway, and each of them couldn't stand it anymore, and started crying and howling, vying to ask for a confession.

Doctor Zhong signaled to Zuwu, and the latter put down the wooden frames in batches and untied the ropes on the frames.Lin Zu was put on the ground, breathed a sigh of relief, and was taken aside for questioning.

"Say."

In order to prevent Lin Zu from colluding, the two Chinese doctors recorded separately.Afterwards, I checked the recorded statements carefully, and after confirming that there were no problems, I put them together and sent them to the big tent in person.

Zhao Hao had just released the carrier pigeon, and watched the round gray shadow disappear behind the clouds.

Doctor Zhong came hand in hand, and happened to meet Zhao Hao returning to his account.

The three of them entered the big tent, and the doctor bowed his hands to salute, and delivered the prepared confession.

"To live up to the son's life."

Under the torture, Lin Zu almost collapsed.Not wanting to continue to be tortured, they all confessed honestly and answered whatever they asked. No one dared to continue to be stubborn, let alone cover up and make up.

Asking about Lin Zu's military position, the doctor focused on recording the defenses of the cities ahead and each city.

Lin Zuo is an elite of the three armies, and he knows all the cities in Nanyou Kingdom like the back of his hand.Especially in the cities of the big clans, there are people who lurk in them, and they are very clear about the size of the city, the troops stationed in the city, and the material reserves.

Lin Zu also knew a lot about Nandu City.

According to several people, this is the secret order of the clan that controls the army, requiring them to disperse everywhere to collect information, especially the big clans, must grasp it clearly, and there must be no omissions.

What is the use of this information, Lin Zu has some guesses, but he can't announce it.I don't want to give up my wealth and status, and I don't want my whole family to be punished, so I have to obey orders honestly, suppress my curiosity, and complete every order given by Qing.

Lin Zu became a prisoner, confessed all under torture, and the information fell into the hands of Zhao Hao.

Qing, who is in charge of the army, has worked hard for many years, relying on Lin Zu to collect a lot of information, but has not put it to practical use, and made wedding dresses for the Bei'an army.

"After crossing the river, there is a large private field a hundred miles ahead, which belongs to three clans and can grow rice three seasons a year."

The army's expedition should focus on city defense, but the Chinese doctor was a little bit off track. Apart from the military situation, he mentioned the grain production of Nanyou Kingdom several times, and his tone was full of envy.

Before that, they never thought that grain could be grown for three seasons, let alone that the yield per mu could exceed [-] catties.

The inconvenient transportation between the north and the south leads to poor information. In addition, Nanyou country deliberately conceals and strictly prohibits the export of grain seeds. The world only knows that rice is grown in the south, and the yield per mu is relatively abundant.

No wonder Nanyouhou and his clan dared to act at will, creating a miasma in the country.Owning a unique geographical location, holding three seasons of high yields, and a solid foundation beyond imagination, it is natural to have no scruples in fabrication, and it is confident from top to bottom.

Doctor Zhong was very envious.

If Bei'an has similar conditions, the number of the three armies can be doubled, and the number of private armies will also increase sharply.Clans don't need to worry about not being able to support the army, and the people of the country can be completely out of production, so they can go to the battlefield to have fun on the battlefield and go wandering on the grassland.On the other hand, Nanyou Country, holding the wealth code in hand, did not expect to open up to the outside world. It has been nested and noisy, and the rich resources were wasted in vain.

Doctor Zhong was really angry, he wished that the army would go out immediately and teach this group of incompetent people a lesson.

About the three-season rice, Zhao Hao once heard Zhixuan mention it.

When he was in Grassland New City, Zhi Xuan saw the progress of land reclamation and lamented more than once that growing grain was not easy.

He tried a variety of methods, from improving farm tools to deep plowing and composting, to improving grain seeds, designed to increase food production.

Deep plowing and composting are quite effective, and the promotion of farm tools across the country has played a big role.There has been no progress in improving grain varieties, and the witch doctor has tried many times, but with little success.

At this time, Zhi Xuan would think of rice in the south.

"Double-cropping rice and three-cropping rice, the minimum yield per mu is two to three hundred catties."

In the eyes of later generations, such a yield per mu is not enough.But for the northern countries whose yield per mu is less than [-] catties, this kind of output is enough to make the eyes of the monarchs and clans red.

The temptation of food was too great, Zhao Hao rarely felt curious and asked very carefully.

Zhixuan didn't hide anything, and talked a lot, starting with improving grain seeds, and mentioned that Nanyou country forbids the export of grain seeds. He sent people to search south and found nothing. He happened to know that Nanyou country had three crops of rice, and his envy was beyond words.

"The grain production is so abundant!"

Zhao Hao was shocked at that moment.If he didn't know that Zhi Xuan would not lie, let alone aim at nothing, he would probably think that the other party was joking.Seeing the doctor's reaction now, Zhao Hao recalled that day, and could still clearly remember the accelerated heartbeat and the buzzing in his ears.

If he has such a grain, if Bei'an has such a grain production, if...

Various ideas flashed through his mind, and from that day on, Zhao Hao strengthened his determination to send his troops south.

Nanyou country provoked several times, and the people of Bei'an country were furious, and it was only a matter of time before they sent troops.

What God does not take, is to be blamed.

In the Nanyou country court, he still wanted to pretend to be an ostrich, thinking that he could procrastinate for a while, and when he was so whimsical that he thought that the Bei'an Congress would be tempered, Gong Zihao was already gearing up and preparing to move south.

Doctor Zhong walked out of the big tent, and several senior doctors were walking towards him.

"How?" asked a senior doctor.

"Knowing that the fifteenth city will be fortified, the young master intends to move out in three days." The doctor Zhong had a happy expression on his face, he knew what the other party wanted to ask, and he didn't hide anything, and there was no need to hide it.

Hearing this, Doctor Shang stopped in his tracks.Thinking of reaping the military exploits soon, he couldn't help but smile, and his eyes were shining brightly.

The rain has been falling non-stop, and the water level of the river has skyrocketed day after day, and it seems that it will not cross the river bank.

The servants and slaves rushed to work in the rain, tied up bamboo rafts under the organization of craftsmen, and threw them into Hanoi in large numbers.

In just a few days, bamboo rafts of similar length and width filled the middle of the river, densely arranged, like a pontoon on water.

Rows of wooden stakes were laid on the river bank, used to tie horses, but now they are wrapped with ropes, and the other end of the rope is connected to the bamboo raft.The three strands of the rope are twisted together and taut in the rain to ensure that the bamboo raft will not be washed away by the current.

A bamboo raft was pushed into the water, splashing a large amount of water.

The craftsman wiped the rain off his face and said loudly, "Continue!"

The servants and slaves were shirtless, their feet and calves were covered with mud, and they uttered loud chants, overwhelming the thunder above their heads.

boom!

When the two bamboo rafts entered the water, the bows of the boats sank first, then rose high, and fell to the water surface for the second time, smashing white waves and creating layers of ripples.

A school of fish went upstream, their bodies came out of the water, and they hit the bamboo raft one after another, making dull noises.

When a school of fish is found, the craftsman immediately blows the wooden whistle.

The servant and the slave cooperated tacitly, quickly untied the rope on the stake, and started to drag it together.

Bamboo rafts floated on the river surface, undulating with the current, stretching across the river one after another, forming a series of dams.

The school of fish was blocked and jumped out of the water one after another, trying to jump from above.

The servants and soldiers jumped onto the bamboo raft, some raised their harpoons, and some let go of their fishing nets.The big fish came out of the water one after another, each with the length of an arm and great strength.After being thrown onto the river bank, the fish kept swinging its body and flicking its tail.

The harvest was huge, and everyone was smiling.

The water waves in the river gradually calmed down, and the big fish were caught in sevens and eights. The servants and slaves stopped, dragged away the bamboo rafts one after another, and let the remaining small fish go.

After everyone returned to the camp, the cook had set up a large pot and poured clean water into it.

When the help cook saw the big fish brought back, his eyes lit up immediately, and instead of going to the river, he cleaned it up in the camp, chopped the fish into large pieces, and handed it to the cook for cooking.

After enjoying the fish soup at the Zhixuan banquet, the Bei'an Guo clan never forgot it, and it set off a trend of eating fish in the country.

What is good at the top must be implemented at the bottom.

Relying on the generosity of Marquis Nishihara, he didn't mind spreading the wonderful method to outsiders. The chefs in the army all mastered the method of cooking fish. The fish soup they made was very delicious, and the fish meat didn't have any fishy smell.

The water began to boil, and the fish rolled in the water, and soon became crystal white.

The chef puts the seasoning into the pot and stirs it slowly with a long-handled wooden spoon.The scent quickly dissipated, and the passing soldier Wu couldn't help sniffing, hoping that dinner time would come soon.

Tengman and Nanman were held in one place, guarded by more than a dozen strong slaves.When the army leaves, they will work with the slaves, mainly responsible for pushing carts.Anyone who dares to disobey or be lazy will be punished, the lightest is to be whipped.

The leader of the mountain barbarians is not there.

He defeated the vine barbarian leader and got the chance to lead the army.After the army set off, he would lead the way through the dense forest ahead, avoiding the most dangerous river sections.

From the moment he entered the camp, he was placed beside the guide.

Several of the guides were businessmen who had done business with Nanman, so they had no barriers to communicating with him, and they could tell a lot about the customs of the tribe.

Seeing that he was not rejected, the leader of the mountain barbarians was overjoyed, he was given a lot of useful information by the guide, and even sold out all the tribes he knew.

When the guide achieves his goal, he immediately reports to Chief Jia.Chief Jia then reported the news, step by step, and quickly sent it to Zhao Hao's desk.

Knowing that there are Nanman activities in the dense forest, and that the tribe is familiar with the waterway leading to the southern capital city, Zhao Hao thought for a moment and decided to raise the account to discuss the matter.

The number of bamboo rafts is sufficient, and the [-] army can set off at any time.Zhao Hao intends to leave the camp early, so he doesn't have to wait another three days.

The clans were all focused on gaining military exploits, and wished they could come to the southern capital immediately. They unanimously agreed with Zhao Hao's decision, and no one raised any objections.

"Tomorrow morning, I will bury the pot and make a meal, and I will leave immediately at dawn."

"promise!"

While the Bei'an army was sharpening their swords, the clans in the southern capital were anxiously waiting for news.

Hundreds of forest soldiers were taken down and all contact was cut off. The clans didn't know that the plan failed, let alone that the danger was coming. Nandu City was about to face disaster.

The situation was special, Nan Youhou did not return to the animal garden, but stayed in the monarch's mansion for the first time, and went to court on time every day.

The clans were arguing endlessly in the court hall, and no one paid attention to Nan Youhou.In their eyes, the monarch above is just a decoration, just show up on time every day, there is no need to discuss the military situation with him.

Nan Youhou acted contented with the status quo, and would sleep in the hall when he was tired of hearing it, which attracted the clan's attention, his expression was full of contempt.

Little did he know that after the early court ended, Nan Youhou returned to the apse, and immediately changed into another appearance.

An unremarkable servant walked into the hall, with an eagle standing on his shoulder, his ears and cheeks were bleeding from the eagle's claws, but he didn't dare to cry out in pain, let alone drive the eagle away.

"Your Majesty."

Nan Youhou turned around, rolled his long sleeves over his upper arms, caught the flying eagle, untied a piece of animal skin from the eagle's legs, glanced quickly, and sneered uncontrollably.

The laughter was sinister and treacherous, making one's scalp tingle.

The waiter didn't dare to lift his head, and kept lying on the ground, letting the blood and sweat slide down together, and smashed to pieces on the ground.
