Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 385: Farming and grazing are hard

Everyone in the whole city of Beicheng shouted while stomping their feet. The voice was like a roar of thousands of troops: "Hey, hey, Huo!"

The sergeants at the drum at the head of the city all put down their weapons at this time, picked up the drumsticks, learned Liu Yu, and knocked on them. The young child's voice is deafeningly mixed with this drum sound.

Along with these rhythmic drums, accompanied by the south wind, they rolled up the violent winds and hurried towards the Qin Junying camp to the north, and the voice of the Qin Jun's battle roar was instantly inaudible.

After Liu Yu knocked for more than ten rounds like this, he laughed and threw the drumstick to Zhiyan Zhi who was nearby. He immediately knocked on it. The Qin army camp opposite had gradually quieted down. Tsunami-like Hu Qi long hissing, Wan Jun Qi Ming's voice can no longer be heard, and occasionally a few sounds of gold ringing, between heaven and earth, only the "Hey, Hey, Huo" of Shouchun City Head The voice is still echoing.

Murong Nan's voice rang behind Liu Yu: "I really have you, this can remind you."

Liu Yu smiled slightly, turned around, and said to Xu Yuanlang on the side: "Master Xu, I will hand it over to you here. The morale of everyone is good. Keep this morale. We will certainly be able to keep Shouchun."

Xu Yuanlang laughed: "Dr. Liu, you really opened my eyes today. I must promote this method in all the cities in the future. Oh, yes, when are we going to wipe the mud?"

Liu Yu nodded: "The sooner the better, you can start now with those plasterers, paint the city head first, then the residential houses in the city, those are wooden houses, it is easy to catch fire, don't be careless."

A moment later, Liu Yu stood at the head of the secret urn city at the beginning, leaning against the battlements. His eyes fell to the distant Qin army camp with a calm look. Brothers Zhu Lingshi and Zhu Chaoshi were following Xu Yuanlang at the head of the city. Carrying a few barrels of silt at the bottom of the well, and following the plasterers, they put these cements on the wooden pillars. More than half of the wooden buildings in the city of Beicheng had become gray and muddy.

Murong Nan sighed softly: "Liu Yu, where did you learn these ways of fighting and defending? Look at your five big and three rough looks, you don't know a few big characters, how can you read so many soldier books?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly and straightened up: "The art of war does not need to know how many words to understand. Generals since ancient times will not be like those masters of classics and metaphysics, so it is mysterious, because the military book is written for the generals. How to lead a soldier to fight is often faced with a farmer who does n’t know one character. What he wants is simple and easy to understand. "

The light in Murongnan's eyes shone: "Where did you get these soldier books? It seems that you don't have any books at home."

Liu Yu smiled: "Why, have you been to my house?"

A trace of confusion flashed in Murongnan's eyes, and he shook his head: "I've never been to Jingkou, where have you been in your house. It's just the situation in your house that no one in the military knows, saying that it's too poor to open the pot, You, Liu Yu, are not the kind of poor scholars. You really need to have a book collection or something. It is estimated that it will have been exchanged for money. "

Liu Yu nodded: "Yeah, because he was too poor, he had to come out to fight a rich man. But to be honest, those soldiers' books are not from my family, but from Liu Fatian, and, since I joined the army, Xuan Shuai It also gave me a lot of war strategies from their collection, such as Liu Tao. They are very useful to me. "

Murong Nan smiled and said: "Are you just those, hey, hey, Huo, also recorded in the military book?"

Liu Yu shook his head: "That's not true, it was our Jingkou people who shouted in unison like this when they were fighting in groups, to be precise, it was the slogan we uniformly shouted when we farmed in Qili Township."

Murong Nan's eyes widened: "What, the horn of farming? Can I still shout like this?"

Liu Yu said with a smile: "That is, Murong Brothers, you haven't planted the land. I don't know how troublesome and painful it is to bend and plant seedlings in the paddy field. Those muddy fields are full of blood-sucking ants. Sometimes Once the leg is pulled out, ten or eight can be stung on it, bloody, I don't know how scary it is. "

He said that when he lifted his trouser legs and furry calves, he could see a lot of fine and numb mouths. He was shocked. Even Murong Nan, who had experienced countless fights, could not help seeing it.

Liu Yu sighed and said: "I just don't want to plant land, so I learned martial arts from an early age. Rather than stoop down and work all my life to **** blood to these frogs, it would be better to kill one on the battlefield. Brother Murong, you are here It ’s not so miserable to graze cattle on the grassland. "

Murong Nan sighed softly: "There are difficulties in the grassland above the grassland. Liu Yu, actually when I was born, our Murong family had already entered the Central Plains. My understanding of the grassland was still through my elders. They said that grazing cows and grazing sheep on the grassland is suffering from wind and rain. Mosquitoes and gadfly are as big as the little finger. There are many viper snakes in the grass. Beasts, sometimes the effort to disperse urine, will attack snakes and insects, and their lives ca n’t be saved. Therefore, even on the grassland, even children of three or four years old must learn to ride archery. ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ As for bows and knives, it is a weapon for self-defense and life-saving. "

Liu Yu said with a smile: "No wonder you have to live on horseback all your life. It turns out that because of these, it looks no more comfortable on the grassland than the Central Plains."

Murong Nan hooked the corner of his mouth: "It's more than that. Your Central Plains people did it at sunrise and died at sunset. Although it is hard work, it is not life-threatening and there is no need to watch the sky to eat. The pellets are not harvested. Even if there is a major disaster, there will be food stored in previous years that can be eaten and will not starve to death. "

"But above the grasslands, in the winter when there is a blizzard, hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep may freeze to death, and then the people in the tribe will die in batches, because the beef and mutton cannot be stored for more than a year. A large-scale epidemic between cattle and sheep may cause a tribe of hundreds of thousands to fall apart instantly. "

Liu Yu nodded: "So if I didn't eat or drink, if I didn't want to starve to death, I would just grab it? Is this the reason for your predatory nature?"

Murong nodded expressionlessly in the south: "It's a reason. The original rivers and rivers among you have never been a problem. On the grasslands, if you want to feed cattle and sheep, you have to have a beautiful pasture.
