"Your Highness, the baggage and food my soldiers brought with them will only last for half a month. Why hasn't Kyoto given us any news on the logistics unit yet?"
Walking in the military camp, Xu Deqing followed behind Zheng Yeheng. The poison Wang Yi had given him just now came on quickly and was cured quickly. Now, apart from the fishy smell of insects in his mouth, he was no longer dizzy.
In fact, this method of fighting poison with poison is good for his health. Vomiting a few times can clear out the toxins in his stomach and intestines. However, there is no need to mention such benefits.
Wang Yi consciously did good deeds without leaving his name, so they didn't need to be grateful to him.
"I will find a way."
What other options did he have? Selling his property in Qingdong City could only provide for a few days' supply.
There are only 100,000 taels of silver on hand now. A mere 100,000 taels is just a drop in the ocean in front of an army of 100,000.
Even in Qingdong City, it was difficult to buy enough food even if you had money.
The refugees from Yunze Country almost stripped the city walls bare. Mo Naihe was already overwhelmed. He and Zheng Yeheng were in the same boat. If Qingdong City was in trouble, the eldest prince and the second prince who were fighting fiercely in Kyoto would swallow up this only neutral city.
If their forces arrive, Zheng Yeheng will no longer be able to establish his own fiefdom.
He was the youngest prince. Even though the eldest and second princes knew that he had no hope of becoming emperor, they were still greedy because he held military power.
Zheng Yeheng had refused to follow anyone but the imperial party. He had clearly stated that he was solely loyal to the crown prince. He would hand over military power to whoever was elected crown prince.
These military supply difficulties were caused by Zheng Yeheng's determination to divorce and abandon the princess. How could he not be targeted?
Speaking of military supplies, he remembered what Wang Yi said last night about being able to exchange one pound of "food" for five pounds.
"Wait for me for two more days. Someone said she could get me food."
…
If someone else had called for sacrifice, the needle Wang Yi inserted would have been soaked in a basin of black soup.
However, she was deeply impressed by Xu Deqing in the original book. He was a good general who served the country and the people. When refugees in Jing State rebelled, he was the one who provided relief and suppressed the rebellion by force. He was a rare talent in Jing State.
Just play a prank on me.
It’s a pity that the loyal minister died because of his speculation and foul mouth, and was eventually killed by the second prince of Jingguo who later ascended the throne.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be one of Zheng Yeheng's subordinates.
He is a man who likes to say harsh words and act in a fierce tone, but in fact, he is the kind of person who can imitate the cat's meow with his little daughter at home.
Wang Yi walked around the yard, thinking about how to stew some meat for her family. She couldn't stand eating potatoes directly.
"Silly sister!" Wang Yi called out. Silly sister came back from the barracks, sweaty and not looking like a girl at all. But Wang Yi just liked her simple and honest nature.
"Go and ask the wives of the third and fourth sons to prepare a good dinner, as today is a good harvest."
"Okay, Auntie!"
"Wait, go tell Yinbao..."
Silly Sister looked up, her face full of surprise: "Ah? Auntie, this..."
"Go quickly and do whatever you are told to do."
When they arrived at the yard, Wang Yi took in two of the wild donkeys and the big cow in the pen.
As for how it disappeared, she could just say it was eaten by a wild beast. Anyway, the system could help her make up a reason.
Received in the space, in the future, there are plenty of cows and donkeys, no need to worry about eating. So, Wang Yi set his sights on another cow——
A whole mountain of fresh potatoes was piled on the ground, and Li Chenggen looked like he was floating today.
From two mu of land, we harvested nine thousand kilograms of potatoes, and from two mu of land, we harvested eight thousand nine hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes!
As for that acre of soybeans, they were not dry yet, so they were cut and dried.
However, it is estimated to be at least 200 kilograms or more.
The grain yield per mu is 4,000 kilograms!
This actually exists!
You know, when he used to farm, even when the harvest was good, he could only harvest 150 kilograms per acre.
He just stood there stupidly, not taking the tiring day seriously, staring at the pile of food in a daze.
My goodness, one pound of food is enough to fill a person’s stomach, which is enough to feed several cities.
If there was such a yield in Yeqingpo, they wouldn't have to drag their families to a place two days and one night away.
It was almost night and time for dinner at the farm.
Zheng Yeheng sat at a table outside that he had someone move in, with a bonfire in front of him.
He stared at the large pot of beef brisket stewed with potatoes and tomatoes on the table. He was silent for a long time and finally spoke:
"Where did you get the cow?"
Wang Yi and he were the only ones at the table. Wang Yi took out a spoon and began to spread the food. Without blushing, he said, "You don't know, a pack of wolves came this afternoon and dragged away three cows. I hurried over and sent Silly Sister to retrieve one, but unfortunately, I couldn't save it. I had to kill it while it was fresh and eat the meat."
Is this really the case?
Why does it feel like it's true when she says it?
Where my army of one hundred thousand is, could a pack of wolves dare to come in and steal cattle?
Zheng Yeheng suppressed his anger and continued to ask, "What else did you steal?"
"And there are two donkeys! Oh, these beasts are so cruel."
"You might as well just say the ox has caught a cold."
"Maybe he'll get it in a few days, there's no rush."
Can I choose a date for this?
It depends on whether you are greedy or not, right?
"Yier, oxen are the main force of your farming. How can you just kill them and eat their meat? Mo Naihe spent a lot of money in the city to buy these five oxen. It's not that I don't want to give them to you, but without the oxen, we will need manpower to farm." Zheng Yeheng persuaded her earnestly, how can you just kill the oxen for farming.
"Is that all? Don't worry, eat them. I'll be able to catch a few more in a few days."
"Catch a few?" Even the bark of the trees has been stripped off in the wild, how can we still catch cows?
