Three Kingdoms: A marriage certificate, the father-in-law is actually Lu Bu

Chapter 29 Withdrawing the troops to Xiapi, Lu Bu speaks amazingly!
Chen Gong, Zhang Liao and others withdrew from Xiapi City faster than Chuck expected.

Before evening, just at dusk when the sun was slanting westward, the defenders from all over the city had already withdrawn from the city and lined up at the south gate of Xiapi City.

Looking at Xuanjiaqi, Bingzhou wolfriders, trapped camps and other defenders, Chuck roughly estimated that the number of troops should be around [-].

"Twenty thousand!"

Chuck was a little worried, knowing that eating horse chews for 2 people in the evacuation was not a small burden.

Even if Chuck intends to borrow food from Liu Biao in Jingzhou in a "friendly" way, the premise is that he has to reach the boundary of Jingzhou.

With a big head, when Chuck's eyes saw the 2 people behind a car full of grain, and the wooden flatbed carts with mules and horses in front, a trace of surprise flashed in Chuck's eyes.

"This……"

Chen Gong, who had been waiting outside the city for a long time, saw Chuck's reaction, and he explained softly: "Young Master, were you worried about food just now?"

"So that the young master knows that Xiapi is one of the most important military towns in Xuzhou. There are not many other things, except that there is no shortage of food. Otherwise..."

When Chen Gong was speaking, his right hand was lightly twirling the long beard on his chin, and he said confidently: "When the Junhou was defeated, Gong would not advise him to guard Xiapi."

"The most important thing for the palace is that the city of Xiapi is high and the food is sufficient."

A word to wake up the dreamer.

Chen Gong's words reminded Chuck all of a sudden, making him suddenly remember that Cao Jun in history had fought fiercely under the city for several months before submerging Xiapi with the help of the flood.

During the period, there was no record in the history books that Xiapi City was short of food, so it was announced that it broke through.

Feeling slightly settled, Chuck pointed to the rows of grain carts in the distance and asked, "Sir, how much grain did you bring on this trip?"

Facing Chuck's inquiry, Chen Gong stretched out five fingers, "Return to the young master."

"Fifty thousand dendrobium."

"There are still more than 1 hu grains left in the city, but Gong Nian thought that our army was mainly withdrawing quickly during this trip. If we brought too much, it would affect the speed of the march. We didn't bring all of it, and gave all of it to the people in the city."

"Hehe, unless Cao Cao has the audacity to search all the grain from the people's homes in vain, he won't be able to get even a grain of grain."

Chen Gong's answer was not what Chuck expected. Looking at the more than a hundred flatbed trucks pulling grain, the amount Chen Gong said roughly matched his estimate.

However, Chen Gong's answer further verified his guess.

Dendrobium is equivalent to stone.

Unlike Shi, which is mostly used in officials, Dendrobium is a common name among common people in the market.

"Fifty thousand stones, enough!"

Chuck remembers an article that he read before crossing. In the post-Three Kingdoms era, Deng Ai, the general of Cao Wei who was famous for "Turning the fields for a long time, should make great achievements", had this description when he was in the field: "In six or seven years, you can Accumulate 3000 million dendrobium in the Huai River, and this will feed a hundred thousand people for five years."

After conversion, the average annual average per capita is roughly [-] hu.

After further conversion, it is five dendrobium per capita per month.

but.

Don't forget one thing.

Deng Ai said these situations have a premise: wartime.

There are many things included in wartime, not only the feed for war horses, but also the consumption of humans and animals during consignment and transportation.By analogy, food consumption should be reduced by at least half on this basis during non-wartimes.

As we all know, in ancient wars, not much food was actually used on the front line, and more was transport loss.

Therefore, Chuck said that [-] hu was enough food.

After all, he has only 2 soldiers and horses under his command now. In addition, he is temporarily evacuated. Naturally, there is no loss of materials along the way. It can be said that he can use it as he wants.

Moreover……

Even if he couldn't figure it out, could it be that Chen Gong, the top counselor in the late Han Dynasty, couldn't figure it out.

He didn't expect to use ninety-nine multiplication tables or something to show off his sense of superiority like a mentally retarded person in ancient times.

Ha ha.

The ninety-nine multiplication table only speeds up some simple calculations, but it is not the reason why all the traversers underestimated the ancients.

If you meet a great sage at the end of the Han Dynasty who is proficient in nine chapters of arithmetic, you can use concepts such as "square field", "decline", "equal" and "sufficiency of surplus" to propose that if the traveler has not won a mathematics olympiad before the time travel, he will Just don't come out and make a fool of yourself.

If you have a junior high school education, bury yourself as soon as possible, if you have a high school education...

Bury half of it.

Mental arithmetic is another thing, just after communicating with them, it is not difficult to find that they have already involved in the fields of approximation, general fraction, four arithmetic operations, Pythagorean algebra, etc. in counting.

The only difference between them and later generations is that they are called differently.

As far as Chuck himself is concerned.

At least he thought he was against Zhang Cang, a master of nine-chapter arithmetic in the late Qin and early Han Dynasties, and he himself had no confidence in himself.

No other.

In the fields he is not proficient in, he will never underestimate the wisdom of the ancients.

……

"Dingling-dingling-dingling-!"

"Jingle Bell!"

A crisp ringtone came, which attracted the attention of Chuck and Chen Gong.

In front of each army formation, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zang Ba and others riding on horseback also looked towards the passageway at the gate of the city.

Chuck turned back.

Lu Bu held Fang Tian's painting halberd and rode his horse in front, followed by two luxurious carriages made of mahogany.

On the side of the carriage, the girl Lu Lingqi changed the way Chuck first saw her not long ago.

Now she is wearing light female armor and a red cloak behind her, looking heroic and heroic, like a female girl.

He is riding a handsome young bay red horse, with red clothes, red armour, and red cloak, which is really eye-catching.

"Good horse!"

With a sigh, Chuck hurried up to meet him.

"Your Majesty!"

Although Lu Bu's father-in-law had been called over before, Chuck still called Lu Bu as a prince under the eyes of everyone.

then.

Chuck said in the direction of the carriage: "My nephew thanked my aunt and the two aunts for their understanding."

What responded to Chuck was a humming sound in the carriage ahead, and Chuck immediately understood that his aunt Yan and the two aunts were all crowded in a carriage.

This moved him involuntarily. If he guessed correctly...

In order not to hinder the formation of the army, Aunt Yan and the others did not bring much belongings, they just used a carriage to bring some of their clothes and belongings, and the three of them squeezed into a carriage compartment "to save trouble".

With this in mind, Chuck gave a fist to the carriage they were riding in to show his gratitude.

Lu Bu saw Chuck's behavior in his eyes, and he didn't stop him.

"Zimou, since you are the one who proposed the withdrawal, then you should be responsible for the entire withdrawal."

Lu Bu spoke amazingly.

Under Chen Gong's surprised eyes, he directly chose to delegate power.

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zang Ba, Wei Xu, Hou Cheng and others also looked at Chuck in disbelief.

Although they had the mental preparation that Chuck would succeed his family in the future, they never thought that this day would come so soon anyway.
