It has been promoted from a second-level village to a third-level village, and the area has expanded a lot compared to the second-level village. At the same time, the various effects of this village have also increased by 1%, which means that the conscription effect has increased from 2% to 1%. Three percent, taxes, and grain collection are the same.
When Wei Xiaobei was busy until lunch time today, he saw Zhuge Jun coming again.
And Zhuge Jun came here this time to collect taxes and food.
To be precise, it is food requisition.
Because this village has no commercial activities at all, that is, there is no tax to be collected. As for the grain, Wei Xiaobei felt a little bit pained seeing Zhuge Jun finally let the soldiers carry the small sack of grain to Liuma.
Just such a small bag of grain is also called grain requisition
"Let them get used to it first, the village doesn't have much food."
Zhuge Jun didn't feel that his trip was in vain. In his opinion, this was just a habit for the villagers at first.
Hearing this, Wei Xiaobei looked at Zhuge Jun with admiration.
Based on this point of view alone, Zhuge Jun may be regarded as a powerful figure in the real commercial society.
But having said that, it seems that Zhao Yunjun's food is not enough.
With 9,000 horses and people eating horse chews, they need a lot of food in a day. At Fengtou Mountain, there was not much food in the original. In a short time it will be destroyed by hordes of monsters.
As a result, Zhao Yunjun could only live on the corpse of the monster.
Now we are outside the Tiewei Mountain, in terms of overall security. Compared with Fengtou Mountain, it is undoubtedly much safer.
But the food problem also appeared.
The monsters in Tiewei Mountain are all made of iron and stone, and their corpses are good raw materials for forging in furnaces, but if they are used as food, hehe, I don't know how good an appetite is to be able to swallow them.
There are some wild animals in the forest on the left and the hills on the right, but the problem is that no matter how many these wild animals are, they cannot be divided by the multiple of 9,000 people.
However, no matter how fast the crops grow in the grain storage fields on the plain, it will take at least twenty days to mature.
fine. When the food military meeting was held, Zhao Yun did not forget Wei Xiaobei.
When Wei Xiaobei came to the tent of the Chinese army and learned that the army was short of food, he couldn't help laughing.
"Why is Captain Yi Cong riding laughing?"
At this time, Zhao Yun was wearing a silver-gilt helmet, a tiger-swallowing armor, and a white cloak. He was sitting on the commander's seat. Seeing Wei Xiaobei smiling and confident, he was a little curious. Maybe my second brother still has some ideas.
"General, the army is short of food, why not go fishing along the coast? It can also solve the problem of salt."
It should be said that Wei Xiaobei's storage ring still has some refined gray fertilizer. But at most it can only cut the crop growth time in half.
Of course, the most troublesome thing is that Zhao Yunjun has cultivated a lot of fields, and his own gray fertilizer may not be enough.
It would be better to let Zhao Yunjun go fishing on the beach, which not only solves the food problem, but also can obtain salt, and maybe even train a navy. Well, the last point. For the time being, it can only be regarded as Wei Xiaobei's delusion.
In addition, although Wei Xiaobei can bring a large amount of food from reality with the storage ring, it is better to teach a person to fish than to give him a fish. Wei Xiaobei still understands this truth.
Besides, if I go out by myself, the food in the botanical garden won't last long, and I won't be able to enter the gray world for a short time. Wei Xiaobei also didn't want to shuttle back and forth for nothing, it was too troublesome.
Hearing what Wei Xiaobei said, Zhao Yun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, his eyes sparkled a little.
At this time, the rest of the generals also ignored the majesty in the big tent of the Chinese army, and started talking in low voices.
Many of them will agree. Although a small number of generals objected, the main point of their consideration was that Zhao Yunjun never went to sea at all. The soldiers in the army are basically from the Shu region. Even if they can swim, they can swim in rivers. The sea and rivers are not the same concept at all.
It's as if flat-bottomed boats in rivers are not suitable for sailing on the sea at all.
"Can you have confidence?!"
Zhao Yun looked at Wei Xiaobei and asked.
"I'm fully confident, just ask the general to deploy some sergeants and wandering horses."
Wei Xiaobei laughed. When he got to the beach, even if he went to fish by himself, he still had to catch the fish. He had already said that. If he said that he was not sure, it would be embarrassing.
"Then leave this matter to Captain Yi Congqi, and you can contact the master for the rest of the matter."
Then Zhao Yun immediately threw a token to Wei Xiaobei.
After Wei Xiaobei caught the token, he looked at it with the knowledge of everything, and couldn't help being a little speechless.
The tokens of Zhao Yun's army are divided into four classes.
The lowest first-class token, which allows the holder to leave the camp to perform tasks and accompany hundreds of people.
The second-class token allows the holder to mobilize thousands of soldiers.
And the token that goes up is the one in Wei Xiaobei's hand, which can mobilize two thousand soldiers to carry out the mission, as for the highest-level token, there is only one token, and the holder of the token has the same power as Zhao Yun, and can mobilize the entire army.
Of course, if Zhao Yun hadn't left the camp for something, Zhao Yun would not have been able to bestow it if the camp needed people to sit in command.
Soon, the military meeting ended.
With this token, Wei Xiaobei ordered two thousand soldiers in the battalion, plus some leading generals, including some craftsmen, even Baima Yicong was dispatched by Wei Xiaobei for a hundred riders, as for Liuma and others. More than ten carriages were loaded with other materials.
This time, Wei Xiaobei is going to play big.
The desert extending around Aoyan, although not comparable to those big deserts in reality, has a diameter of more than 10,000 meters and a high temperature of 60 degrees all day long.
For ordinary people in reality, the difficulty of crossing such a desert is no easier than those of the real deserts.
But for the soldiers of Zhao Yunjun led by Wei Xiaobei, such a problem was not a problem at all.
The distance of more than ten kilometers was quickly crossed under the feet of the lowest two-star ordinary sergeant.
As the desert gradually crossed, the sea breeze with a hint of fishy smell suddenly made the soldiers feel clear-headed and cool all over their bodies.
This is the sea? ! !
The soldiers stepped on the junction of the desert and the beach, looking at the blue sea, the waves kept rushing to the beach, and then receded.
"Let everyone take a break first, just on the beach, pay attention, there are crabs on the beach."
Wei Xiaobei gave instructions to his personal soldier Zhao Xin.
Then Zhao Xin immediately raised his voice and shouted: "The master has orders! Everyone go to the beach to rest, watch out for crabs!"
It has to be said that the soldiers of Zhao Yun's army are strictly disciplined, even if Wei Xiaobei ordered them to rest, a few small teams of scouts were sent out to monitor the surrounding area of the army.
As for the rest of the soldiers, they marched towards the beach under the leadership of the general.
Since the chief general said to pay attention to crabs, those generals will not take it lightly.
The highest rank among the generals is a school lieutenant, Zhao Yun personally appointed Wei Xiaobei's deputy, whose main role is to help Wei Xiaobei check for omissions and fill vacancies.
After all, it was Wei Xiaobei's first time leading so many soldiers, so it was hard to say that there would be no problems.
Here you need the help of a veteran.
The captain was walking in the front right now. After stepping on the beach, he let out a soft drink, and his aura suddenly increased. Even Wei Xiaobei could see the aura outside his body turn into fiery red, continuously spreading towards the beach.
This piece of beach immediately exploded.
Densely packed crabs of various colors, red, black, yellow, cyan.....drilled out of the sand, rushing towards the waves.
For these crabs, the approaching soldiers are a huge delicacy, but the danger of a natural disaster made them choose to flee.
"Wow!"
Nearly 2,000 people exclaimed in unison, which is really surprising.
It's not that these soldiers are afraid of crabs, but it's the first time they've seen so many crabs.
As far as crabs are concerned, no one has ever seen them. There are sea crabs in river ditches and fields, but there are sea crabs that are more than the size of a palm, densely packed, and the number is uncountable. The soldiers on the ground have never seen it.
"What are you still doing in a daze! Grab it!"
Wei Xiaobei smiled at this moment and roared loudly.
Indeed, for soldiers, these crabs are a hearty meal.
It is not easy to eat this kind of seafood in normal times, even some dignitaries may not be able to enjoy it, after all, the sea is too far away from the inland.
boom!
As soon as Wei Xiaobei gave the order, the soldiers immediately dispersed and rushed forward, using various methods to catch crabs, some slapped them with knives and guns, some stretched out their hands to catch them, and some had already prepared net bags.
In short, the crabs were out of luck when they met these soldiers.
For those core disciples who have just entered the Gray Realm on Weijia Island, these crabs can take advantage of their numbers.
But the number of soldiers was close to two thousand! In addition, the lowest strength is a two-star average, and you can catch a lot of crabs with your hands and feet.
Although it is not a catastrophe, after 20 minutes, the crabs on the beach basically disappeared.
But when these soldiers were catching crabs, Wei Xiaobei went to the other side of the beach.
Over there, Zhao Yunjun's scouts met the core disciples led by Huang Kun.
If Wei Xiaobei hadn't discovered the confrontation between the two sides, I'm afraid there would be a big fight after a while, and in that case, it would really be flooding the Dragon King Temple.
"stop!"
Wei Xiaobei rushed over and screamed.
Huang Kun, who was about to lead people into a fight with the scouts, froze for a moment, seeing that it was Master coming, he hurriedly called out: "Master."
When the scouts saw Wei Xiaobei approaching, they immediately beat their chests and saluted: "See Captain Cavalry."
How is this going
It seems that these guys know Master
Huang Kun hasn't been able to straighten out the relationship here for a while. (to be continued~^~)
