Ever since the passionate kiss on Jijili's day, Yu Xiaocao found that Zhu Junyang has become more and more clingy.
The firearms battalion of the Xishan camp has begun to take shape. With the emperor, a firearms enthusiast from his previous life, there, whether it is the production of muskets or the development of red-clothed cannons, is proceeding in an orderly manner. The Xishan Firearms Battalion under King Yangjun can basically equip each person with a musket and every thousand households with a cannon.
After handing over the target shooting training of the firearms battalion to Dong Dali, who had just shown his temperament as a sharpshooter, Zhu Junyang became the shopkeeper and took on the task of escorting the young daughter-in-law to various royal breeding farms. It was a wonderful life.
At this time, both the Royal Breeding Farm in the Gyeonggi area and the Yu Family Farm in Tanggu had already started to formalize. The breeding farm in the Gyeonggi area is divided into four large farms, supervised by the cronies sent by the emperor in the past. It has been two years of experimentation. The breeding farm has been familiar with the cultivation process from top to bottom. The farm sent her carefully "cultivated" seeds, and checked the wells of each farm along the way, basically nothing happened.
The management of the farm found that the seeds sent by Mr. Yu were not much different from the seeds produced by the farm itself. So he tried to set aside a single piece of land and cultivate it with the seeds produced by himself. When it comes to harvest, there is not much difference in yield, though.
But after the seeds in this field were sold, the following year the local government received complaints from the people, saying that a certain seed shop was selling fake and shoddy seeds. One or two hundred catties of grain is more important to ordinary people than their lives. Isn't it harmful to sell fake seeds
There is such a difference in the yield of the grain seeds bought in the same government-run seed store, which has to make some people question it. After inspection, it was found that the seeds with reduced yields were grown from seeds that had not passed Master Yu's hands.
A so-called "informed person" reported that Mr. Yu would use a self-made potion every time he breeds, which not only increases the yield but also prevents diseases and insect pests. As a result, some caring people thought about forcing Yu Xiaocao to hand over the secret recipe of the potion, and the "lawsuit" even reached the emperor.
The emperor knew Xiaocao's details very well, so he found an excuse and blocked Xiaocao's back. However, it's not always a problem if it goes on like this. After all, Xiaobutianshi will return to its space. At that time, won't the grain output have to "return to before liberation" again
In private, the emperor asked Xiaocao to try more to cultivate real high-yield grains, and also asked the Ministry of Industry to conduct research on farming equipment. Examples include seeders, harvesters, and threshers.
When I learned from Xiaobutianshi that after its mana returned to its peak, it would help her improve the genes of the seeds and breed wheat with a real yield of more than a thousand catties per mu. With its guarantee, Yu Xiaocao is not in a hurry. After all, she is not a real farming expert, nor can she be a character like Yuan Longping. All she can rely on is the cheating device of the Little Butian Stone.
"Girl, the autumn corn has been harvested, and the winter wheat has also been planted. Shouldn't it be time for you to fulfill your promise to help the Lord tame the good horses?" his cavalry battalion.
The cavalry is flexible and has strong impact. In Zhu Junyang's view, it is imperative for Daming to build its own cavalry battalion. The mobility of the cavalry can ensure the army's rapid pursuit, encirclement, surprise attack and rush to rescue. The impact of the cavalry can effectively deal with the infantry phalanx with relatively simple equipment. Because the cavalry rushes into the enemy camp at the speed of the horses, it can effectively destroy the enemy's formation, and its momentum when galloping can also collapse the morale of the enemy. Cavalry is a nightmare for infantry.
The nomads in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty were extremely sturdy, and they were all good at cavalry. When fighting on the vast grasslands, the advantages of cavalry were obvious. The Ming army suffered from the enemy's cavalry more than once or twice. Especially after winter, for the sake of food and supplies, the enemy cavalry used guerrilla warfare, burned, killed and looted a place, and then quickly retreated. After Daming's army rushed over, there were only ruins and corpses left in the village . The border troops hated the opponent's cavalry to the bone.
There are also generals who want to build a cavalry team of their own, but where do the cavalry horses come from? People outside the pass would definitely not sell good horses to the Ming army and let them deal with them. In some horse farms in the pass, the horses are mixed, and they cannot be compared with those horse nomads. If the cavalry is forcibly established, it will also have to follow the opponent to eat ashes because of the horse.
Zhu Junyang has long been envious of Xiaocao's beloved horse, Xiaohong. He specially invited people who are good at horses to check Xiaohong's breed, but the results were inconclusive. Many horse masters said that Xiaohong's breed should be a very common hybrid breed in the customs, commonly known as bad horses, which are generally used to pull carts and transport goods. But I don't know how the owner raised it, forcibly raising a bad horse to the state of being comparable to a good horse. If it weren't for the fact that he was the king of Yangjun, those horse masters would definitely chase after him and ask what kind of feed the horses were raised with.
Zhu Junyang is even more sure that Xiaocao must have a way to turn a bad horse into a good one. Of course, if Xiaocao is unwilling to reveal her secret, he will never force her. At worst, he took a team of elite soldiers from the Firearms Battalion and sneaked into the enemy camp to steal horses.
However, she really deserved to be the little girl he had his eyes on, he just mentioned a word to her, and the little girl readily agreed. However, Xiaocao emphasized that raising the horse is all thanks to him and the horse feeder he invited. Zhu Junyang was also willing to help the little girl cover, and specially selected two from the hidden guards who could raise horses, claiming that they were horse trainers hired from outside the customs with high salaries.
On this day, the sky is fine, the sun is beautiful and the wind is light. The king of Yangjun received the decree, and took two "masters" who were proficient in raising and taming horses, and went to the outside of the pass.
In the past two years, the Huoqi Battalion has participated in several missions to suppress bandits and aid the border, and they have all been completed very satisfactorily, and have achieved the feat of taking down three enemy cities without hurting a single soldier. It can be said that whether it is tactics or spear skills, the soldiers of the Firearms Battalion have played to the fullest. In the court, even the generals who did not deal with King Yang admired his military training skills.
When he impassionedly stated the advantages of cavalry in the court hall, and proposed to build a royal horse farm in the north, the court hall was silent. You know, is the racecourse so easy to build? Is it enough to just have an excellent horse breeder? Where do good stallions come from? Many people think that Yang Junwang's decision is too hasty, waiting to see his joke!
But the emperor is quite optimistic about him, because when Xiaocao entered the palace to greet the queen two days ago, he asked him for his will, saying that he would help Zhu Junyang build a horse farm outside the pass. With Xiaocao's gold finger, Zhu Junfan is quite looking forward to the construction of the racecourse.
If Daming had a team of well-equipped cavalry, equipped with muskets, it would definitely be invincible! Every man has the dream of making contributions, and every emperor hopes to make the country rich and the army strong. Zhu Junfan was overwhelmed with emotion, and immediately approved Xiaocao's accompanying, and also sent Chief Su Ran to be a supervisor.
Therefore, when they set off, there were many handsome men in the team who thought they were dressed in white and had a fairy appearance. Xiaocao is happy to have such an eye-catching person, but Zhu Junyang is not happy. Originally, even a man would not be happy if there was an extra light bulb that blinds people's eyes on the sweet journey of the two of them.
The emperor also dispatched a team from the Xishan Firearms Battalion to be responsible for guarding the racecourse. Although after a few big battles, some tribes outside the pass became more honest, but the horse farm was built at the border to prevent those guys who are not of my race from doing bad things.
Zhu Junyang's long-awaited trip for two has now become a mighty group of people. If there are too many lice, it will not itch, and if there are too many light bulbs, you will not worry. However, the way his little girl smiled like a flower at that beautiful dead eunuch made him extremely unhappy.
Do you want to fight that dead eunuch under the pretext of exchanging ideas? However, if he loses, what will the little girl think of him? well! Forget it, he endured it! When he was not sure enough to defeat Director Su, he had to practice ninjutsu to perfection!
"Mr. Su, try the flying dragon soup I made! I was lucky today. I caught a flying dragon. It is said that the dragon meat in the sky is the donkey meat in the ground. The soup made by the flying dragon is really delicious!" When sleeping in the mountains, Yu Xiao Cao filled a bowl of soup for Su Ran and delivered it to him, smiling and admiring the picture of a beautiful man having a meal, it's really pleasing to the eye!
"Cao'er, Master also wants to drink Feilong soup..." The stern and stern king of Yang Jun turned into a big dog begging for petting from his master, and begged Xiaocao for soup.
Yu Xiaocao didn't even give him a look, and said to him directly: "There are some in the pot, fill them up by yourself! Mr. Su, how does it taste? My craftsmanship is pretty good, right?"
Su Ran's handsome smile was a little warmer, and he nodded slightly: "The flying dragon meat is delicious, the cooking technique is just right, it complements each other, and the taste is excellent!"
The jealous jar in Zhu Junyang's heart was overturned, staring at Chief Su Ran's handsome face, he had to admit in his heart that this dead eunuch looks really good, especially when he has a gentle smile, it gives people a warm feeling. This is exactly the type that the little girl likes! At the same time, he shamelessly rejoiced that Su Ran was a eunuch, otherwise he wasn't sure that his little girl would not empathize with her.
"Girl, you treat it too differently, don't you? Grandpa hunted the dragon, plucked the hair, and set the fire... He didn't do anything, but sat back and enjoyed it. Grandpa wants to drink a bowl of soup, but he has to serve it himself! It's not fair!!" There was a trace of injury in Zhu Junyang's phoenix eyes, and a pitiful chirp appeared on Jun's face.
Su Ran glanced lightly at Zhu Junyang who was "begging to be appeased", and laughed so hard that his intestines almost knotted up. Every day watching the king of Yang County drink jealously, he could even eat two more bowls of rice!
