Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 56
After the spring returned to the land, the hundreds of villagers began to get busy.

Lantian asked Li Yang to harvest all the green manure on the farm in advance, and buried it in the field during the spring plowing to increase the fertility of the land, and completed the sowing during the spring rain.

One advantage of militarized farming is that it is relatively harder to work. Although the common people were very uncomfortable at first, because human inertia often appeared in the work, but after getting used to it, it became extremely easy.

The good ones are rewarded, the bad ones are punished, the strong ones are praised, and the weak ones are supported.

Good or bad work will be notified and recorded in the book. Lantian will reward or punish these people in kind at the end of each season. For those people who are born with poorer nature, they will also arrange one-on-one assistance and guidance for those who are born poor.

The thinning of the seedlings in May has ended, and the millet plants in the field have grown up, and the entire field is so green.

Gao Shun asked these villagers to start training in turn. Previously, Li Yang and Mr. Deng were doing the work. Most of these ordinary people understood Lantian's intentions.

Men all have a competitive heart, even these farmers who work in the fields all day long are no exception, so the participants in the training are very motivated.

Practice your skills not for others, but only to protect your own homeland and the food you have worked so hard to grow.

After starting farming in Dengjiazhuang, Lantian not only went to the field to guide production from time to time, but also cultivated and improved new grains, fruits and vegetables by himself, so he simply moved to live in the village with Lu Lingqi.

Liu Bei had nothing to do recently, and came to Dengjiazhuang with Guan, Zhang, and Zhao Yun.

Hearing shouts from Zhuangyou from a distance, Zhang Fei looked puzzled, "What tricks is this Lan Ziyu doing?"

"Let's go, take a look." Liu Bei raised his whip and said.

When everyone came to the village, they found that the plateau was training the queue, and the trainees were farmers with different clothes.

Gao Shun nodded when he saw Liu Bei clasped his fists. Liu Bei asked puzzledly, "General Gao, what are you?"

"Mr. Ziyu arranged this." Gao Shun didn't say much.

"Lan Ziyu is really training? It's interesting. Where is he? My old Zhang came to drink with him." Zhang Fei asked with a smile.

"I'll take you there." Gao Shun led the way after finishing speaking.

Lan Tian lived in the home of old landlord Deng, and happened to be door-to-door neighbors with Li Yang.

Liu Bei and others walked to the door of Mr. Deng's house, just in time to meet Lan Tian walking back with a straw hat on his shoulders and a hoe on his shoulders.

Several people were standing still waiting for him to come, Lan Tian was surprised: "Brother-in-law, why are you here?"

"There is nothing to do in Xinye today, so I came to see the situation of your farming. I think the seedlings are growing well." Liu Bei smiled.

"Lan Ziyu, you, Captain Diannong, went to the field in person?" Zhang Fei was incredulous.

"Go ahead and rest in the courtyard. I'll come after I wash my feet. General Gao, please greet me first."

At this time, Lan Tian was wearing a straw hat, his trouser legs were rolled up high, his legs were stained with mud, and he was still barefoot. He looked like an old farmer in the country.

"Wei." Gao Shun clasped his hands together and led Liu Bei into the courtyard.

Lu Lingqi was more vigilant, she heard someone talking outside the door, she went to the courtyard first, and found that it was Liu Bei and others, so she greeted and saluted one by one.

In the house, the old landlord Deng heard Lu Lingqi greeting the guests, so he guessed that the nobleman must have come to find out.

His little grandson thought it was Lan Tian's return, so he ran out and ran directly on Liu Bei's legs, yelling, "Lanlan.lan."

At this time, the child was rough, and little Deng Fan's snot almost rubbed against Liu Bei's hem, making Liu Bei not know what to say.

Zhang Fei asked softly beside him, "Brother, isn't this the child Lan Ziyu gave birth to in Xuzhou?"

Liu Bei turned his head and saw Lu Lingqi looking at them, so he whispered, "Third Brother, don't talk nonsense."

Seeing that little Deng Fan didn't let go, Liu Bei asked awkwardly, "Old man, whose child is this?"

"This is the grandson of my Deng family, the country boy is a little naughty, Fan Er, you have misunderstood him." The old master Deng had bad legs and could only call out not far away.

Little Deng Fan looked up. This guy had big ears, but he was much older than Lan Tian, ​​so he stepped back and said, "You, you. It's not Lan."

"How old is this child?" Seeing that the child was stuttering, Zhang Fei asked puzzledly.

The old master Deng held the little Deng Fan in his arms, and said kindly: "It's more than three years old."

"Already three years old? Is it so difficult to speak?" Zhang Fei asked in surprise.

"Third brother." Liu Bei (Guan Yu) scolded at the same time.

Zhang Fei knew that he had said the wrong thing, and explained: "I don't mean anything else. I don't have any children now. I don't know what to do when I am three years old."

The old landlord Deng sighed: "In this age of war and chaos, it is good to be able to live in peace. Fan'er was born with an illness and failed to seek medical treatment in time. However, Mr. Lan once said: Those who know don't speak, and those who speak I don’t know, Fan’er may become a great weapon.”

Zhang Fei learned how to be smart and didn't answer, thinking that this was Lan Tian's comforting words, old man, you still believe it.

At this time, Lan Tian just walked into the yard, and he added: "Although this child is only three years old, he has the character of tenacity and willingness to learn. I have been farming in the farm during this time, and he often came to watch nearby, and seemed to understand. We said the same thing."

"Lan Lan. Lan." Little Deng Fan broke free from the old master Deng, and then threw himself into Lan Tian's arms.

Lan Tian held Xiao Deng Fan in his arms, pointed to Liu Bei and the others and said, "Little Deng Zi, this is General Liu, and this is General Guan."

The name Xiao Dengzi was given by Li Yang, because he was called Xiao Lizi in Lantian, Ganjiazhuang. This guy finally became an elder, so he decisively exercised his privilege.

After everyone exchanged greetings, Mr. Deng got up to leave.

Lu Lingqi and Gao Shun entered the house and brought melons and fruits to treat guests, and Lu Lingqi tried to be virtuous and virtuous in front of outsiders.

Several people sat together, Liu Bei took the lead and said, "I see that Zhuang Shang is practicing the formation, but what is Ziyu's plan?"

"The time for spring plowing is over now, and the fields don't need too many people. I thought there was nothing wrong with me, so I asked General Gao to train them. In case of war, maybe I can help transport grain and grass." Lan Tian explained .

"It's overkill for Boping to train them," Liu Bei shook his head.

Lan Tian said: "It is easy to train the strong in the strong, and it is difficult to train the strong in the weak. If we can really train this group of farmers into elite soldiers, then we will be able to demonstrate General Gao's ability."

"This matter is quite difficult, I will do my best." Gao Shun said concisely.

"Every time I talk to Ziyu, I see the sun through the clouds. You have a completely different answer to the same thing." Liu Bei sighed.

"Ziyu has a good mouth, but he is not as good as my old Zhang when drinking." Zhang Fei interjected.

Lan Tian smiled and said, "Looking at it horizontally, it looks like mountains and peaks, and you can see different scenery just by changing the direction."

Liu Bei nodded and said: "Ziyu's words are very kind, and Bei has something to ask for advice here today."

"Brother-in-law, but it's okay."

"Yuan Benchu ​​was defeated at Guandu last year. I heard that Cao Cao sent troops to Xudu again last month. What does Ziyu think about the situation in Hebei? What will happen to us in Xinye?" Liu Bei worried.
