Xiangyang.

Liu Biao's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened to the news brought back by Kuai Yue, "According to Yidu, Achu wants to run the Wulingman business well..."

"Yes." Kuai Yue stroked his beard and smiled, "If it can be managed well, it will not only bring peace to the place, but also bring the benefit of salt, and most importantly... bring a fighting force."

He now also knows the news that Cai Mao was beaten wildly by Sun Ce.

The combat effectiveness of the Jingzhou soldiers' land soldiers really needs to be strengthened.

"Hey... Thirty thousand people from De Gui couldn't defeat that Jiangdong Pi'er!" Thinking of this, Liu Biao felt a toothache. The military advantage was on their side!

"Yes, if it hadn't been for A Chu this time, the 30,000 soldiers I humbly brought... I'm afraid they would have been defeated." Kuai Yue shook his head, "In the last battle, the barbarians had nearly 30,000 soldiers available...

"

The ground combat effectiveness of Jingzhou soldiers is really incomparable to that of the barbarians.

If it weren't for the mysterious construction of the camp, he would have been in trouble this time.

"What do you think of Huo Jun?" Liu Biao asked, remembering Huo Jun's performance.

"It is extremely brave to dare to lead an army of a thousand men and kill barbarians ten times your own." Kuai Yue sighed, "Our Jingzhou army needs just such a general."

Liu Biao nodded, stroked his beard, and agreed, "I will reward him when he returns to Xiangyang. Did Zhang Qian make any mistakes this time?"

"Captain Zhang acts prudently and never makes any rash advances. He also has the air of a general." Kuai Yue praised with a smile.

Liu Biao expressed that he felt relieved.

For now, he plans to slowly disperse the military power of the Jingzhou soldiers.

It is true that Cai Mao was a military advisor, and he was quite good at commanding the naval force, but his combat effectiveness came ashore...it was really a bit embarrassing.

Then he looked at Kuai Yue with a sigh and said,

"I am now nearly sixty years old. I wanted to protect Jingzhou safely, but the world situation is changing so fast.

There are rebellions and thieves everywhere, and the Han Dynasty is in ruins, but after all, I am a member of the Han Dynasty, and I cannot bear to see this..."

"So, God sent Layman and Achu here..." Kuai Yue said, remembering the news he knew, and said, "Builder... seems to have passed away."

"What?" Liu Biao's eyes widened, "Where's the news?"

"This time during the Ping Barbarian War, some people said they wanted to see lay people. A Chu said... these people who are alive cannot be seen. Those who have not survived may have a chance." Kuai Yue was silent and replied.

Liu Biao listened and sighed, "No wonder I asked Achu several times...Achu always refused on behalf of the layman. It must be that the layman is in poor health, but now he has passed away. It is a pity that he could not meet the layman."

"It's a pity." Kuai Yue nodded, "But, because of this, the lord should value A Chucai more."

Liu Biao smiled bitterly, "That's true...but Achu is fourteen now...she is my wife's sister's daughter after all."

Kuai Yue was silent, and then said with a smile, "Achu has his own idea. Come to think of it... we won't get married in the short term, and... if we want to get married, what kind of talent should we match?"

Liu Biao also laughed, "Yes, if you want to choose a son-in-law for A Chu, it will take a lot of effort. Let Chengyan Gong and the others take the headache, hahaha."

Kuai Yue also nodded, "It's the salt made by A Chu..."

"I think Ah Chu will have some sense of proportion." Liu Biao stroked his beard and smiled nonchalantly.

"Over there, A Chu is sensible, but my lord knows that the salt made by A Chu... is the best green salt." Kuai Yue had no choice but to take out a small bag from his waist and handed it over.

Liu Biao was surprised, "I looked at Xiandu's last report, but..."

After opening the small cloth bag, Liu Biao's words were stuck, and then he laughed, "It's said in the alien world, not the salt power of the South Barbarians."

"Yes." Kuai Yue smiled.

This kind of green salt is the best salt no matter where it is placed, and can cost hundreds of dollars per pound.

Although Jingzhou is rich, if it wants to survive in these troubled times in the future, of course it must save money and food to train elite soldiers. Among the original veterans of Jingzhou, except Wenpin, they have not yet fought against Jiangdong...

Cai Mao and Huang Zu were both defeated.

"This benefit... let's let Xiandu handle it. Think about it, did you discuss it with Achu before the class teacher Xiandu?"

"Yes. A Chu said that Jingzhou is rich in money and food, but if you really want to train elite soldiers, it will still cost a lot." Kuai Yue nodded, then smiled bitterly, "The way we are now... the common people are poor and the aristocratic families are extravagant. These salts can help

My lord has taken out a lot of money from aristocratic families."

"It's embarrassing for Ah Chu." Liu Biao felt warm in his heart, thinking of Qu Yuanli's contribution this year, and said with a smile,

"It is already July, and there is a good harvest of corn and rice everywhere, and the barns are full.

Nowadays, there are curved shaft plows, which saves the people a lot of effort, so... I want to encourage the people to open up wasteland, and then register and create a book. No taxes will be collected for the first five years.

Thinking about it, after these years, the people of Jingzhou will be better off.

Think of it as a layman...accumulating more immortal virtues."

"My lord is wise." Kuai Yue praised him sincerely and sighed for the layman who planted flowers. It was a pity.

"We will make plans for military training after A Chu comes back." Liu Biao then made up his mind and asked, "When will A Chu come back?"

I have never thought about these things in the past because my mind was full but my strength was not enough.

Now that you have the ability to do these things, you should make plans as soon as possible.

"I'm afraid it will take three or two months." Kuai Yue estimated.

"It's autumn and winter again..." Liu Biao was helpless and then laughed, "Speaking of which, over at Chu An, Yang Shuo went to the memorial..."

"oh?"

"Achu tried planting wheat last year and had a good harvest, and then planted rice... Now the rice is growing well, and it is expected to be harvested in September or October. After the harvest... we can plant wheat in rotation again." Liu Biao

Sighing.

"Two crops a year?" Kuai Yue's eyes widened, "Is what my lord said true?"

"Of course." Liu Biao then found one of his documents and handed it to Kuai Yue.

This document was sent from Chu'an by Yang Shuo at the "active" suggestion of Pang Shanmin after the rice was sure to grow.

If two crops can be harvested a year, it will be of great benefit to people all over the world, regardless of whether this method will spread.

And in such a war, it is estimated that it will only be promoted in Jingzhou at most.

Kuai Yue read it and marveled again and again, "A Chu is really thoughtful in his work, and he is also right... About food, you can only convince others when you have planted it! If so..."

"Yes, if so, it will be a blessing from heaven!"

"This method should also be taught by lay people..."

"That's how it should be."

"No wonder the Lord ordered the people to open up wasteland and not pay taxes for five years."

"I am a prefecture shepherd, and I will shepherd and guard the people of a prefecture for the emperor. Naturally... I also hope that the people will be better." Liu Biao sighed with a smile, "This matter will be done next year after Achu has confirmed a good harvest.

change."

"yes."

"As for Zhu Shao," Liu Biao laughed, "let Zhongxuan be sent as envoy to Jiangdong again. As for that letter... let it be circulated."

"promise."

…

Yuzhang County.

Liu Qi looked at the folding paper on the desk, feeling helpless.

He originally thought that being a prefect... wouldn't be too difficult, but he didn't expect that it would be a bunch of miscellaneous little things.

Although I know that this is the prefect's responsibility, I still feel helpless in my heart.

Speaking of which, it has been ten days since Gan Juncheng sent out troops, and I don't know what the situation is.

The Jiangdong thieves, despite being defeated by Jiangxia last time, actually provoked the barbarian rebellion this time, which is really abominable.

This time, he should avenge this grudge for the people of Jingzhou and vent this evil anger on his father.

Lest any princes think that Jingzhou can be bullied by others.

…

Chaisang.

Gan Ning led hundreds of large and small ships and displayed them outside Chaisang County.

Chaisang was captured by Sun Ce when he attacked Yuan Shu and then captured Jiujiang.

However, Chaisang’s geographical location is... quite special.

To the west is Jiangxia, to the north is Lujiang River, and to the south is Yuzhang. It is like a small dot, half covered by Jiangxia and Yuzhang.

With Chaisang here, Jiangdong can travel to Jingzhou by water at any time.

Therefore, this time, Gan Ning wanted to take Chaisang back and cut off the road from Jiangdong to Jingzhou.
