Chapter 1,101 A desperate plan

The hedgehog's residence was very well done, even the small chairs were made by Suyou.

There were tiles on the Zhuangzi, so Su You and the children carved out a small piece of land behind the Zhuangzi, pulled up the thread, and together they dug a square pit.

Then lay tiles on the bottom of the square pit, insert tiles on the sides, surround it with soil, and then fill the pit with soil to create a regular breeding tank.

The next step is to restore the ecological environment in the breeding pond, lay turf, plant melon seedlings, water them, and put in all the insects, earthworms, and bird eggs collected from the melon field.

After finishing the work, a ditch was dug around the breeding pond, wooden stakes were nailed, and a rainproof shed was built.

Finally, the caught hedgehog was put in.

The colander also ran back and forth, and then he suddenly said: "Zoo."

Su You wanted to reach out and touch the head of the colander, only to find that his hands were full of mud. Looking at this ecological breeding tank, he was very proud and said with a smile: "I have been busy all morning, and I can barely see it. Let's go, wash your hands and eat!"

The breakfast at Zhongmou Zhuangzi is very popular among children.

Because there is a lot of milk, I make cakes, bread, nut pies, milk sago and other foods on Tuesday.

Sweets are always a child's favorite.

After finishing the meal, which they didn't know whether to count as breakfast or dinner, Su You and the other children began to feel sleepy.

So when Hachiko came back from his work, he found that everyone, both adults and children, had slipped onto the bed and fell asleep in all directions.

Hachiko shook his head and quietly exited the bedroom.

He slept until night, when Su You was awakened by the bustle outside Zhuangzi.

When I went out, I saw that the hunting party had returned.

There was a lot of prey, mainly wild boar, deer, deer, and muntjac. Even the princesses of Shu and Wei had a few pheasants and hares hanging in front of their saddles.

Su You smiled and said: "Yeah, you two are hiding something secret from me..."

Princess Wei said: "Don't make fun of me, Shaobao. It turns out that it is quite easy to learn how to operate a hunting gun."

The princess of Shu smiled and said: "My sister and I just want to test the power of firearms because of our desire to hunt. We want to know how Cao Anmin got his reputation as a powerful person in the South China Sea."

Su You said: "In fact, that battle was quite dangerous. Fighting at night was inherently disadvantageous to the new army. Cao Anmin was able to make a decisive decision and fight with hundreds of people against tens of thousands. He is definitely worthy of the title of general."

"The most important thing that determines the outcome of a war is people. Why are you talking about all this? The weather is quite hot. Get off your horse and take a rest. The herbal tea is ready."

Everyone dismounted one after another, and Shi Wei asked: "Where are Bian Gu and the others?"

Su You said: "They are still asleep. We have built a small garden for the hedgehogs. Hachiko is watching there with a colander. This muntjac is quite fat. We will eat it tonight! We have to pick up the rest.

, go down to the ice cellar."

Green beans are in season right now, so that night’s main dishes are braised muntjac with green beans and stewed pheasant with mushrooms.

After dinner was over, the younger sister came up with a watermelon in her hands: "Brother, come and find out the answer to the mystery."

Zhang Dunli said: "Isn't this just a watermelon? What's so magical about it?"

Su You touched the green skin of the melon: "I think we should start a bet. Let's talk about whether there are any seeds in this watermelon?"

Zhang Dunli said with a smile: "Mingrun's statement is strange. It is said that the melons have continuous seeds and the seeds are abundant. If this watermelon has no seeds, wouldn't it be a joke?"

Su You smiled and asked several ladies: "What do you think?"

Princess Wei said: "You have a lot of weird things going on in Sujiazhuang. Maybe you can get a seedless melon. I choose seedless."

The princess of Shu said: "That is too unbelievable, I still choose to have seeds."

Su You asked Shi Wei: "Weier, what do you choose?"

Shi Wei smiled and said: "Whatever Brother Xiaoyou chooses, I will choose."

Su You said: "Then I choose seedless."

The girl said: "I think there is a high probability that there are still seeds, but the seeds are extremely immature and will be far different from the maturity of the watermelon itself."

Su You picked up the knife and said, "Let's reveal the answer now!"

With one cut of the knife, the watermelon was split into two halves, but the flesh on both sides was bright red without a single watermelon seed!

Zhang Dunli was shocked: "What's going on?! If this kind of watermelon has no seeds, what kind of seeds is this melon grown from?"

Su You said: "This melon originally had seeds, but my Wei'er used magic to take away the watermelon seeds through the air..."

After speaking, he threw a handful of watermelon seeds on the table: "Look, they are all here."

Seeing that Zhang Dunli was almost stupid, the princess of Shu smiled and said: "Mr. Fish Kingdom is always witty. You obviously just grabbed these melon seeds from the plate at the back."

Zhang Dunli picked up a watermelon seed and knocked it, and couldn't help but laugh: "Mingrun, you must be evil! These are the five-flavored melon seeds that Hachigong fried a few days ago!"

The younger sister said: "Brother, please cut a few more times and divide the meat into pieces."

After a few cuts, it turns out that the melon still has seeds, but the seeds are small, white and tender, and have a completely different maturity than the pulp.

You can eat it with the melon without spitting out the seeds.

Everyone started eating melons. Not only was this melon bigger than ordinary melons, it was also sweet and fragrant. It was definitely a good thing.

The younger sister went to get another one and cut it open, but it was still the same. She invited Hachiko and the children to eat together.

Zhang Dunli felt itchy and unbearable: "County Lord, please tell me how this melon is grown. A chicken lays an egg and an egg lays a chicken. I just can't figure it out. What kind of seeds are used to grow a melon without seeds? This is not like that."

...Is it a contradiction?”

Hachiko was very satisfied with the quality of the melon: "It tastes good, and you don't have to spit out the seeds, which saves you a lot of trouble."

"I can't figure out how my little sister came up with this melon, but I think this must be the mule in the melon."

"The mule is also quite big and strong, but it just can't give birth to a mule."

Su You and his little sister clapped their hands together and exclaimed: "Exactly!"

Su You smiled and said: "Jiang is still very old, and he can tell the truth in one sentence! Jiayan, please tell me what I told you last night."

When Han Jiayan finished explaining the truth, Hachigong said with a smile: "My little sister is amazing. One step more than giving birth to a mule is to turn a donkey into a horse first! Who has seen this skill in the past, and who has thought about it?!"

…

After eating the melon, Zhang Dunli asked Su You to go for a walk under the moon as an excuse to eat.

The two of them each carried a lantern and walked toward a small lake outside Zhuangzi Woods.

Zhang Dunli hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Mingrun, I have a plan to overthrow the Liao Kingdom."

Su You said: "Tell me and listen."

Zhang Dunli said: "The method my little sister just used to cultivate seedless melons can also be used to cultivate rice and wheat seeds?"

Su You nodded: "Theoretically, it should be possible."

Zhang Dunli said: "If we cultivate some hybrid seeds and sell them to the Liao Kingdom..."

Su You stopped and said, "Then the Liao Kingdom will definitely achieve high yields in the first year. After the farmers benefit, they will definitely be overjoyed and leave the seeds to continue planting in the second year. The Liao Kingdom will also vigorously promote it."

"However, if such seeds are sown in the ground again, in the third year they will surely grow withered grains and no harvest. The Liao Kingdom will be starved to death and its power will decline greatly. Is this what you want to say?"

Zhang Dunli sighed and said: "It seems that you, Mingrun, have also thought of Fan Li's plan to destroy Wu. Who among today's farmers would know that there is a seed that can produce high yields in the first year and no harvest in the second year?"

Su You said: "If it is implemented, it will definitely succeed, at least on a local scale."

"But this plan is too vicious. Different from war, the dead will be children first, then the elderly, women, and finally the young adults. This is to attack the enemy's civilians, not the enemy's soldiers."

"Also, I am empty of Hebei. If the Liao people are subjected to this vicious trick, they will definitely find a way to get rid of it and take revenge. What will they do?"

"Although the new army has been partially formed, it is people, not weapons, that determine the army's combat effectiveness. The army needs to be tempered by war."

"The high-level military reports have come up. The three armies of Ganyi, Zhenguo, and Dingguo, military discipline, style, soldiers' cultural knowledge, and familiarity with drill codes are all higher than those of Dun'an and Kanghe armies. But in the latest actual battle

During the exercise, they were hoarded and the crane was completely defeated, leaving them unable to fight back."

"The reason is that for more than twenty years, the two armies of Dun'an and Konghe have been fighting for several months with almost no interruption. Every order and code of conduct they have is forged in the light of blood, fire and swords."

"Now that Gao Jiedu has been stationed in the He Controlling Army, he wants to come up with a truly useful new military drill as soon as possible and build a set of logistics, command, intelligence, and combat systems for theater wartime."
