Chapter 110

Zhou Yafu was in the east of the river. Every three to five, Zhou Yafu captured a village and town.

Chu Tian is inspecting the harvest this year.

According to Li Zhen's report, the town is likely to have a good harvest this summer.

A good harvest means a big increase in grain production.

Most of this is due to Li's careful management of the farmland.

Li Kai has been managing agriculture and public security in a low-key way, and without having to worry about Chu Tian, he can arrange these things in an orderly way.

Chutian's decisions on agriculture are mainly land ownership, division of land use rights, tax rate, agricultural budget, and the promulgation of some agricultural policies.

The details of soil fertility restoration, seed screening, and excavation of drainage channels are not things Chu Tian wants to do personally.

Chu Tian said to Li Ying, who has been hard-working, he said: "I'm sorry to trouble you about Diannong. After this year's harvest, I'll raise my husband's salary."

Chu Tian was unable to officially confer official titles, but he still gave priority to salary increase.

Li Kai did not refuse, but said: "it is the great benevolence and righteousness of the Lord that we can cultivate people in troubled times."

"You have to arrange for the June harvest. If you have enough food, you can attack Langya city. "

"Is the Lord really going to besiege Langya city with thousands of troops?"

"It must be a fight, it depends on how."

Considering that the harvest rate of this summer town is likely to be high, coupled with Li's SS characteristics of "making the most of the land", the farmland yield of Xiazhen will increase by 30%, and the grain harvested this year will be enough for Xiazhen to harvest next year.

Food is the most important thing for the people. Only when they have enough food can they go to war.

"General Zhou Yafu has captured two villages in the past seven days."

A cavalry returned to Xiazhen to report.

Chu Tian said to himself, "how did he slow down his attack on the city and pull out the stronghold?"

If Zhou Yafu hears Chu Tian's complaint, he must feel that he died unjustly.

He took the five hundred willow camp, but he could attack the village and town one after another.

Fang Xuanling, who was next to Chu Tian, said, "maybe Zhou Yafu has encountered some difficulties."

The cavalry quickly replied, "general Zhou Yafu expanded his territory in Hedong. The Lords around him were afraid of him, so they joined forces to form a coalition against general Zhou Yafu's front, so it was difficult to win quickly."

It seems that other lords are also smart people. They know that they can't compete with Zhou Yafu by their own strength, so they choose to form an alliance.

The existence of the alliance allows the small and medium-sized lords to have the ability to resist the big Lords. For example, the anti Dong Zhuo alliance in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Xinchang encirclement network in the Japanese District, and the anti French Alliance in Europe.

"How many towns does the other side have and how many soldiers and horses there are?"

"There are six town allied forces in Hedong, with more than 3000 troops, including 300 cavalry, on the defensive. General Zhou Yafu assembled 1200 soldiers from the three towns and joined forces with Xiliu camp to be on the offensive. "

No wonder Zhou Yafu's attack was blocked. There were many troops on the opposite side. Zhou Yafu did not feel ashamed of the title of a famous general of the Western Han Dynasty.

"Let Liu sanjao lead 500 Xuzhou archers and 100 light cavalry to assist in the battle and seize the land of Hedong as soon as possible."

There are nine towns in Hedong of Yihe River, which is called "nine towns of Hedong" by Chutian, corresponding to "seven towns in the north".

In Chutian, Xia Town, Lingyan Town, Yunlai Town, shangbi town and Liangshan town are called "Hexi five towns" by Chutian himself. As for why there are fewer towns in Hexi than in Hedong This has something to do with the dominance of Xiazhen family.

These three places, together with the territory controlled by the wolf guild, firmly surrounded Langya City, realizing the strategy of surrounding the city by villages and towns.

Cities are far more difficult to attack than villages and towns. Even small cities need to think twice.

This is why Chu Tian sent Zhou Yafu to attack nine towns in Hedong.

If we do not seize the nine towns of Hedong as soon as possible, once a town is upgraded to a city, it will be more difficult to fight in the future.

Chu Tian's order soon arrived at Liu Sandao, a general of bow system. Liu san dao led 500 archers and 100 light cavalry to Hedong to reinforce Zhou Yafu in fishing boats and sentinel boats.

As for the training of new recruits, the task is given to the Bowman's deputy.

Hua Mulan found that the summer cool, which she reported to Chu Tian from time to time, seemed to have evaporated from the human world recently, so she asked, "where is Miss Xia?"

Chu Tian casually replied, "she goes to Langya city to do business."

"Langya city?"

Hua Mulan and Chu Tian look at each other, some doubts.

I don't understand Chu Tian's plan to send xialiang to Langya city.

"You have no right to know about it."

"Yes..."

Hua Mulan quickly lowered his head, as if he could not look directly at the boss.

Chu Tian sees Hua Mulan and subconsciously checks the attributes of Hua Mulan. Hua Mulan's current level is 50 and her force is 91 points. She is approaching the peak. She is one of the top military generals in Xuzhou.Of the nine towns in Hedong, six of them were still tenaciously resisting Zhou Yafu's military front.

Zhou Yafu encircles a village and wants to ambush the other side's reinforcements, but the six towns have no plan, or they really don't want to go out of the city to meet Zhou Yafu.

Zhou Yafu's Xiliu camp caused a lot of casualties to them in a small-scale battle not long ago. At that time, 500 soldiers and less than 1000 soldiers of Xiliu camp joined the army and were surrounded by 3000 people from the six towns. Instead, the six town coalition army retreated and left with more than 100 corpses.

The timid six town allied forces then only dare to hide in the town, relying on rammed earth walls to delay Zhou Yafu's progress, hoping that Zhou Yafu could not conquer the town and chose to leave.

The existence of the city wall made countless famous generals bow down for it. Zhou Yafu did not attack their town easily.

"He claims to be the third most prosperous Lord in the Eastern Han Dynasty. I just want to do a good job in farming." do you think he talks about it

"It's mostly true. If he is not a historical general, how could we have been beaten so badly before? "

"If we surrender, we will lose our present position, and if we can't fight, it's depressing."

The mayor of the six towns gathered in the town surrounded by Zhou Yafu, with a sad face.

With 3000 people surrounded by less than 2000 people from each other, shame

Just when the six towns united forces did not give up their territory and tried to win a chance, Liu Sandao, who was sent by Chutian to support Zhou Yafu, arrived and joined Zhou Yafu smoothly.

"It's not wise to attack by force. You lead your troops to attack other towns where the troops are empty, and make this town an isolated town."

Zhou Yafu gave Liu Sandao five hundred servants from the army and asked him to lead 500 infantry and 500 archers to attack other towns.

Liu san dao saw that there were only a few people left under Zhou Yafu's tent: "you only have a thousand people. Can you continue to surround them? What if they come out of town to attack? "

Zhou Yafu waved his hand calmly: "a thousand people are enough to block them in."
