Chapter 91 Promotion
Both sweet potatoes and corn are drought-tolerant plants. These drought-tolerant crops actually entered China during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, but until the first year of Chongzhen, they were not promoted on a large scale for decades.

Because if you eat too much sweet potatoes, you will experience flatulence, pantothenic acidity, and corn is astringent and difficult to swallow. Unless you really have nothing to eat, few people will plant these things in normal and non-disaster years. The people are not very enthusiastic, and the emperor is not. Pay attention to people's promotion of planting without artificial intervention.

Therefore, although corn and sweet potatoes were planted early in the Ming Dynasty, they were still cultivated in some provinces. During the Chongzhen period, when there was a severe drought, the people had no food to eat, many died of starvation, and uprisings began, even if Emperor Chongzhen had the intention to promote it, This condition is not met, not to mention that Chongzhen still did not pay attention to these drought-resistant plants.

These crops are very suitable for getting through this disaster year. Sweet potatoes can sprout roots in just one day when the weather is around [-] degrees Celsius. They have strong fertilizer absorption ability and are resistant to barrenness. Even if you want high yields, you still need to irrigate and fertilize. But there is no need for its high output at the moment, ordinary output is enough.

Liu Zhenhua looked through the mall and saw that there were sweet potato seedlings in there. Although the price was not cheap, they could be planted after being taken out. If the environment was suitable, they would be ready to eat in three or four months.

The roots are edible, and the leaves are also delicious when steamed.

Sweet potatoes are expensive, but sweet potato seedlings are cheaper. Two reputation points are equivalent to one plant. This is a good deal. You can plant sweet potato seedlings in an acre of land in exchange for one and a half days.

"Plant it and promote it tomorrow," Liu Zhenhua decided.

There are three families in Yanchuan County. On weekdays, these three families are the first to be arrested in Yurou Township. The rest of the landowners and wise people will hand over their land deeds. Those who dare to resist will become militiamen. The soul of the dead under the knife.

There is a family in the city, the Gao family, who usually opens warehouses to help the people. They are called Gao Shanren. However, if you look closely, you will find that they still annex land and charge high rents, but they are just lower than ordinary landlords. Using the money earned from harsh criticism, he went to help the people, gaining a reputation as a good person and gaining his own peace of mind.

None of these landowners dare to say that their land is clean.

When the Gao family was being raided, the common people who originally interceded for the Gao family landlord were also very aggrieved. They even cursed the Stove King and killed people indiscriminately. He was simply a villain and dared to call himself the Stove King.

After Yang Lichao and the surrounding soldiers heard this, they almost killed the Gao family landlord directly. However, due to military discipline, they could not do this. Yang Lichao directly explained the nature of the Gao family landlord's good deeds.

After Yang Lichao revealed his essence and told the people the Kitchen King's requirements for the people, everyone was furious and no one spoke for the landlord of the Gao family.

The people around him wanted to drink his blood and eat his bones. Such a person was worthy of scolding the Stove King.

to evening.

within the county government.

Liu Zhenhua was sitting in front of the hall, with a group of cadres standing below him.

"Today we fought with the army defending the city. Wang Long opened the city gate. We lined up on the main street and advanced step by step. The militia captain Wang Jiachang asked the deputy team to lead a large group of militiamen to assist the heavenly soldiers and lead a small group of militiamen around. Then block the way back and let the defenders surrender who have lost their fighting spirit."

"From morning to night, from fighting with the defenders to fighting with the servants, a total of 330 people have been promoted to heavenly soldiers."

Yang Lichao reported below.

Liu Zhenhua heard what he heard. First of all, of the more than 300 heavenly soldiers, one hundred were militiamen led by Wang Long who broke over the wall.

Of the remaining 230 people, half were servants killed when the landlords were surrendered, and the other half were militiamen who surrounded the city and went up the city wall to surrender.

Then, there is the issue of promotion.

He looked at Wang Jiachang, Yang Lichao, Wang Long and others. He only gave two strategies for this battle. One was to enter the city in the dark and open the door. The second was to use the heavenly soldiers as the main force and supplemented by the militia to advance frontally, under the command of Yang Lichao. When the heavenly soldiers fight, the militia captain organizes the militia to assist the heavenly soldiers in fighting.

The commander-in-chief of the militia and the heavenly soldiers was Liu Zhenhua. After Wang Jiachang completed the main combat mission, he also knew that he could get better results by going around later.Among these mud-legged guys, he stands out. This guy also performs very well during training.

At present, military talents are scarce, and Yang Lichao is appointed as Hongli. Although both of them are platoon leaders, they have not shown outstanding command skills. On the other hand, Wang Jiachang, with 2000 people under his command and the deputy captain of the militia, the militiamen did not cause trouble. He was still able to The deployment of militiamen to carry out bypass operations shows that they have some military ability.

"Zhao Shitong."

"Subordinates are here!"

"I appoint you as the commander of the third company."

There are many more heavenly soldiers in this battle, and some capable people will naturally be promoted.

"Thank you, Kitchen King!"

Zhao Shitong knelt on the ground excitedly. He wanted to tell his brother and sister that he was successful, and his parents would be relieved after Tian Youling saw it.

"Wang Jiachang," Liu Zhenhua looked at Wang Jiachang.

The latter's expression became serious, he cupped his hands and said: "My subordinate is here!"

"I appoint you as the commander of the fourth company of the Heavenly Soldiers," Liu Zhenhua's voice fell.

"Thank you Stove King!" Wang Jiachang's face was full of ecstasy. He knelt down on the ground and grabbed the ground with his head. He originally thought that this time he could be promoted to a heavenly soldier and become a squad leader. Who knew that Liu Zhenhua actually let him He was the company commander.

This is almost a step up to heaven, enjoying the same treatment as Yang Lichao and Ren Hongli.

"Get up," Liu Zhenhua said calmly, "Wang Long, I appoint you as the commander of the fifth company of the heavenly soldiers."

"Thank you, Kitchen King!"

Originally, Wang Long was very worried when he heard that Wang Jiachang had reached the top in one step. He didn't know what kind of position he could get. Now that Liu Zhenhua's voice sounded, he knelt down almost at the same time.

Company commander, he has become a company commander, and he is considered a high-ranking official. Sure enough, he was right. Entering the Stove King's field of vision, as long as he does his job well, it is easy to rise to the top.

At present, the more than 400 heavenly soldiers are not enough to be called a regiment, so we will not appoint a regiment leader for the time being.

Later, Ren Heitu was promoted to platoon leader and took over Zhao Shitong's position.

Zhang Tianze, deputy captain of the militia, was promoted to captain of the militia.

At present, the large number of militiamen is a problem. It is said that it is a militia team, which can almost be called a militia group. Liu Zhenhua decided to solve it after executing the tomorrow landlord.

The militia's promotion speed is also a bit slow. The most important thing is that the recent wars have not been frequent. After the Li family's landlord battle, there has been no war to exterminate the landlords in Jiaokou Town. Now that they have entered Yanchuan County, there are not many resistance forces. , it can almost be regarded as surrender without a fight. If Liu Zhenhua hadn't asked Wang Long to take a hundred people to carry out special tasks, the number of people who would be promoted to heavenly soldiers in this battle would probably be even less.

 Thanks to Dashuai Cong for the reward of 1500 starting coins, thank you, big man!Thousands of zeros!Thanks for the reward of 100 starting coins for fried banana and peppercorns, thank you boss!

  It will be released the day after tomorrow. I will post a review and update the rules tomorrow. I’m excited!
