Tang's dining table

"Are all Wuman people stupid?" Ziqi Aguo asked in confusion.

Di Guangsi said: "No, it's just that they have lived in the jungle for many, many years. They don't know that the outside world has changed a lot. When they encounter problems, they can think of ways to solve them. The only solution is the one found in the jungle.

The most obvious principle of the law of the jungle is that the weak eat the strong.

Therefore, as long as they avoid the strengths of the Wuman people and exclusively exploit and attack their weaknesses, they will not know how to deal with new problems.

Cuan people, the reason why the Bai barbarians can live relatively richly in the southwest and have been squeezing the Wu barbarians is that you have close contacts with the Tang Dynasty, and you have suffered a lot in the process of dealing with the Tang people. , and then slowly became wiser.

After you became smart, you immediately began to suppress, exploit, and even massacre the relatively stupid Wuman people.

Now, it's the Wuman people's turn to learn to be smart. "

Zi Qi Aguo looked at Di Guangsi's thick-browed face and pointed at the piles of black barbarian corpses in the distance and said, "Is this the price they pay for learning to be clever from you?"

Di Guangsi nodded and said, "That's right."

Zi Qi Aguo said: "What if they can't learn the tricks of the Tang Dynasty?"

Di Guangsi said: "Since the beginning of the Yellow Emperor, many powerful peoples on this land have disappeared without a trace. If the Wuman people cannot learn, it means that they are not qualified to continue living in this forest.

Even if we don't do this, the Cuan people and even the Bai barbarians will do this to them.

In contrast, the Tang people were the best group of people to them. "

As he spoke, Di Guangsi pointed to Chahei, who was yelling at a large group of Wuman people not far away, and said: "There is already a very smart Wuman man there. If he is the leader of the Wuman people, what will you do?" Don't think about enslaving, selling, and killing Uman people anymore.

And this kind of wisdom will definitely be passed down from generation to generation among the Wuman people and become the collective memory of their race.

Therefore, Cuan people and white barbarians, wait for the final judgment of the powerful Wuman people! "

"You are a group of devils!" Ziqi Aguo shouted with a pale face after hearing this.

Di Guangsi smiled, pointed to the few people coming out of the city gate and said to Ziqi Aguo: "Look, they sent people out of the city to negotiate. It is estimated that our 150,000 Wu barbarians have food to eat. "

Zi Qi Aguo remained silent, but was unwilling to leave. She hid in a dark corner and watched the envoy sent by Cuansheng arguing with Shi Bao. He watched as the envoy Cuansheng continued to report the amount of food. When Xiang Gaoli was promoted, Cuansheng's envoy promised to give 200,000 jins of grain today, another 200,000 jins tomorrow, and 100,000 jins the day after tomorrow, in exchange for the Wuman people's promise not to continue attacking Shicheng.

Zi Qi Aguo wanted to cry, but there was not a single tear in her eyes.

That night, the Wuman people ate the rice they had not eaten for a long, long time...

Early the next morning, the Wuman people began to ask for the remaining 300,000 kilograms of rice in front of the city. If they didn't give it, they would attack the city!

"The rice here in the southwest tastes really good. Even if it doesn't come with side dishes, it's still good to eat it with white rice."

After Wen Huan ate a bowl of light green rice, he felt it tasted very good.

Yun Jin looked at the crystal clear rice and said, "This kind of rice is slightly sweet. It is indeed a rare good rice. Mother, Aunt Naha, Yun Jin, and Sisi all like to eat rice, so they should like it."

Ziqi Aguo, who was also eating with a rice bowl, said: "Burn the trees at the foot of the mountain and dig out the tree roots. The elephants first trample the mountainous terrain into steps, and then the mountain people use hoes to open up the steps into fields and draw the clear spring water on the mountainside. After entering the field, the mud in the field is trampled into mud, and then rice is sown into the field. The rice seedlings grow out, and the thick areas are transplanted to sparse areas.

During the day, beware of birds harming the seedlings, and at night, beware of wild beasts harming the rice seedlings. Whenever there are weeds in the fields, they must be pulled out immediately. If the water in the rice fields is low, add water, and if there is too much water, drain the water. If there are insects, remove them and if there are diseases. The seedlings need to be cleared of diseases.

If there is a flood, there will be no harvest. If there is a drought, there will be no harvest. The same is true if there are herds of animals coming out of the mountains.

After a hundred days of this, the rice will mature. The mountain people use knives to cut the ears of rice. The rice produced in one field is less than 200 jins. The mountain people are reluctant to eat it themselves, but you have brought in half a million jins in one go. "

Wen Huan thought for a while and said to Ziqi Aguo: "Why don't they dig a pool at a high place? Then they don't have to worry about drought. If they build drainage channels, they don't have to worry about too much rain. Why don't they wait until the rice matures?" When the time comes, we organize manpower to guard the rice fields. In this way, we don’t have to worry about encountering a tide of beasts.

A field can produce two hundred kilograms of rice, which is not much. Why don't they learn to cultivate seeds?

Also, why do they scatter the seeds in the fields, but don’t know how to cultivate the rice seedlings in advance and then insert them into the fields?

The crops are just a flower, and they all rely on dung. They just plant the seedlings and just ignore them, right?

You can obviously put so much effort into growing rice, but you don't. No wonder it takes a large field to grow two hundred kilograms of rice. "

Ziqi Aguo looked at Wen Huan angrily, and she even felt that Wen Huan might have misunderstood what she just said. "

Li Chengxiu said: "Farming is never easy. This is true for the mountain people in the southwest and the farmers of the Tang Dynasty. However, since it is a way to make a living, no one should complain.

Sisi wrote such a sad poem after seeing the appearance of those weaver girls in Jinguan City some time ago. So, instead of lamenting the difficulty of people making a living here, it is better to lower oneself and look for ways to make the land more productive. Food method. "

Yun Jin looked at Zi Qi Aguo and said: "After the stone city is destroyed, there will be many, many women and children around you, and you will be responsible for their future lives. Therefore, at that time, as a leader, you must be more Find ways to complain less.

We must actively lead them to organize production as soon as possible, make the business in Shicheng prosper as soon as possible, and try to change the living habits and quality of women and children as much as possible.

Complaining blindly is not a good leader. "

Zi Qi Aguo looked at Di Guangsi in confusion.

Di Guangsi sighed and said: "Don't worry, as long as you carry the women and children here through the most difficult month, a large number of Tang troops will come over later to build new villages for you and distribute blankets and iron Pots, and food, from now on, my soldiers from the Tang Dynasty will be guarding the surrounding area, no evil people or wild beasts can harm those women and children."

Ziqi Aguo felt that her mind was so messed up... She didn't even believe that people from the Tang Dynasty had such kind hearts.

After all, Yun Jin and the others failed to get the 300,000 kilograms of rice, so the war broke out again.

Under the watchful eyes of Cha Hei, the Wuman people at the east gate once again launched a fierce attack. There were already many huge cracks in the tall city wall of Shicheng. As long as the big guys put more effort, the wall would collapse.

Although the attack at the east gate was very fierce, the powerful Shi Bao was not here.

He's on the west side.

There were fierce attacks from the east gate, south gate, and north gate. Only the west side had only one path and there were swamps on both sides, so the Cuan people who were defending the west side had been mobilized.

Wen Huan looked at the underwater bamboo bridge and said to Shi Bao: "I know you want to be a hero. Today, I will give you the opportunity to be a hero. If you can lead them to attack the city wall today and help us capture Shicheng, the city We will not harm the women and children here, we will leave them all to you and Ziqi Aguo."

Shi Bao looked at Wen Huan and said, "I will take them back to Shibao Village. From now on, Shibao Village will be a big village."

Wen Huan smiled and said, "As long as they are willing, it's up to you."

Shi Bao didn't say much and looked directly at Zi Qi Aguo.

While Zi Qi Aguo was arranging her clothes, she said to Shi Bao: "Don't show mercy, our goal is to strengthen Shi Bao Village."

Wen Huan said in surprise: "Isn't your father a Cuan?"

Ziqi Aguo said: "I am not from Cuan, I don't even know who I am, I only know that I was rescued from the leopard's den by Aye, you can say that I am a Southwester.

You Tang people are not good people, Cuan people are not good people, and Baiman is not a good person. The women and children here can only live well in Shibaozhai.

If you insist on classifying me into a group of people, I, Ziqi Aguo, can only be a Shibaozhai native. "

Wen Huan laughed and said: "I like your understanding of self-division. Hahaha, I leave this to you. In just one more stick of incense, the three sides of the southeast and north will launch attacks at the same time. Whether they can break the city depends on It’s yours.”

Zi Qi Aguo said loudly: "I just hope you can keep your promise."

Wen Huan said: "If you like your Shibaozhai, you can naturally stay. If you don't like your Shibaozhai, I hope you can let them go."

Zi Qi Aguo said to Wen Huan's back: "A gentleman's words."

Wen Huan waved his hand casually and said, "Hurry up and whip your horse."

Seeing Wen Huan leave in a hurry, Zi Qi Aguo took out the long bow and held it in his hand and said to Shi Bao: "You lead people to attack the city, and I will cover you under the city."

Shi Bao smiled and said: "This time, our Shi Bao Village will no longer be short of women and children. We will become the largest village near Shi City."

A hint of gloom flashed in Ziqi Aguo's eyes, and she wanted to say something. Seeing Shi Bao's cheerful look, she stopped talking and just stared at Shi Xiang in a daze as she was about to burn out.

Heavy drums sounded from the other three directions of Shicheng. This was the sound of bronze drums commonly used by the Wuman people. Their ancestors once used the vibrations of the bronze drums to drive away wild beasts and worship gods. Now, those Tang people used bronze drums to encourage the Wuman people to launch attacks. war.

The wind blew away the last bit of fire on Shi Xiang. Shi Bao picked up a bamboo ladder and stepped into the swamp with a shout. Behind him, there were countless excited Wuman people holding bamboo ladders and wading into Shicheng.

Ziqi Aguo rolled up her skirt, revealing a pair of white calves, and jumped into the swamp equally bravely. She didn't even need to look at the bamboo bridge under her feet, her big black and white eyes were staring at the city head. Only by breaking through the stone city and getting the Those women and children, only by getting those women and children can Shibaozhai become stronger and the people of the Southwest have hope.
