Destiny Only Han

Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The shelling continued throughout the night.

Zhou Yafu stood on the shore, smiling from ear to ear.

In front of him were fishing boats borrowed from neighboring counties.

At this moment, these fishing boats are plying back and forth on the water, occasionally using hooks or fishing nets to fish out trophies from the water.

Such as pigs and sheep.

But most of them are sacks of grain floating down the river.

Jia Yi yawned and walked out of the military camp. His eyes widened suddenly, and he ran to Zhou Yafu and asked, "Where did all this come from?"

"It came from the flood!" Zhou Yafu smiled broadly and pointed forward: "Listen, something good will float down later!"

Jia Yi tilted his head and heard a rumbling sound.

"Huh? Thunder?"

"What's the thunder? That's the sound of cannon!"

Liu Yingke came from the other side and said with a smile: "That was the Royal Navy's attack on the Sunga people!"

Jia Yi became more and more confused: "Are you talking about the Marine Corps?"

Liu Yingke asked: "You really don't know?"

Jia Yi shook his head.

Zhou Yafu explained with a smile: "Military information is top secret. Even I only found out last night..."

Only then did Liu Yingke suddenly realize.

Although Jia Yi was born into a noble family and was an official attendant of the emperor, he came ashore in the "National Examination" and was naturally opposed to the nobles.

Therefore, although Chen Bi asked him to participate in the war against Xunjia, that was all.

If you know the secret, don’t even think about it!
However, at this time, the two sides had already started a war, so naturally there was no secret at all.

Liu Yingke explained: "At this time, it was not the Marine Corps that shelled the Sunga barracks, but the Royal Navy."

"They took a private cargo ship that was recruited, carried naval guns upstream, and continued to fire at the Sunga military camp in the middle of the river..."

Jia Yi nodded first, then asked: "Then why don't you see dead people?"

He was a scholarly scholar and not deeply involved in the world. He had no doubts about what Liu Ying said in his poem, "One general can make thousands of bones dry up".

The Han army is invincible, and the ones with withered bones are naturally the Xunjia people!
"This is indeed the plan." Zhou Yafu explained: "Then after the naval fleet sailed upstream, the water surface was filled with supply ships from the Xunjia Kingdom..."

"so……"

"Look, a new batch of loot is floating down!"

Jia Yi looked in the direction of Zhou Yafu's finger, and the first thing he saw was a thick layer of broken wood.

It was obvious that the wood was part of the ship.

Then, among the pieces of wood, there are pigs and sheep floating in the water with their heads held high, as well as sacks filled with grain that rise and fall.

Those who rested on the shore and happily recruited militiamen immediately rowed out again.

The smile on Zhou Yafu's face never stopped.

Liu Yingke was a little curious: "What are you laughing at? That's the work of the Royal Navy! What does it have to do with you?"

Zhou Yafu said nothing.

Jia Yi thought for a while, his face full of understanding.

Liu Yingke cast his gaze over again: "What is he laughing at?"

Jia Yi replied: "Do you still remember that the Mengzhou Duhufu has a task of collecting 80 tons of rice this year?"

Liu Yingke nodded.

"Aren't those his tasks?" Jia Yi pointed to the Ganges River: "There is no owner of the things flowing down the river. Whoever salvages them belongs to whomever!"

Liu Yingke suddenly realized.

He gave a thumbs up: "Treacherous!"

Zhou Yafu suddenly felt aggrieved: "I'm being driven crazy too!"

"You remember Xu Wang, right? I thought he would help me see immediate benefits?"

"But do you know what he said?"

Liu Yingke shook his head.

"He said this year was a waste!" Zhou Yafu was about to cry but had no tears: "The old man said that the whole year's plan lies in spring. When we sown in spring, we missed the farming season. As a result, the branches that grew out when the rice tillered were ineffective tillers. Not only did it not work. The growth of rice ears will also take away the nutrients from the roots..."

"So, after this season's harvest, we need to wait for a while and adjust the farming season before sowing again..."

"In other words, this year there are only two crops per year."

“Moreover, the first crop failed!”

Liu Yingke frowned: "What is a tiller? Also, what is an ineffective tiller?"

Liu Jiao was already the King of Chu when he was born. Although he followed Taigong Liu and ran to the fields to play when he was a child, he did it purely for fun and only knew how to better catch grasshoppers and dig vole holes. Don't remember anything else...

Zhou Yafu is almost the same.

He hesitated for a long time without saying anything.

Well, when he was born, Zhou Bo had already jumped from a musician in the county opera troupe to a shareholder of the Han Empire...

Jia Yi smiled and said:

"Tillers are new branches that grow from the roots of rice or wheat seedlings."

"Ineffective tillers are those branches that cannot grow ears of grain. There are many reasons for this result, and I don't understand them." "I have only heard people say that theoretically, every tiller will grow an ear of grain." …”

"The more tillers, the more grain, the more harvest..."

Liu Yingke nodded: "I understand, it's like having a woman! The more women you have, the more sons you will have!"

Jia Yi was confused.

Zhou Yafu laughed.

Jia Yi sighed and made a pun: "Yes, it will depend on whether you can bear it or not..."

Liu Yingke chuckled and changed the subject: "So, you are eyeing the grain floating down the river?"

Zhou Yafu nodded.

While they were talking, another large piece of wood and other tattered things drifted down from the upper reaches.

But this time it was different from before. The water flow was light pink, and half-broken human limbs could be seen around the wood fragments!
Jia Yi ran to the shore and stared for a long time without saying anything.

This was his first experience of war.

At this moment, looking at the undulating intestines, arms and ferocious-looking heads on the water, he couldn't help but retching.

Liu Yingke wasn't much better either.

Zhou Yafu, however, looked not surprised.

After all, when he was still a little kid, he followed Liu Ying to conquer the Baima Di people. At that time, the army still fought with cold weapons, and the fighting was far more brutal than the scene on the water.

One of the militiamen asked hesitantly: "Daduhu, do you still want to salvage it?"

"Why not fish it out?" Zhou Yafu stared: "Although the grain has been soaked in blood, if you don't tell it, who will know? Anyway, after it is dried, it will be shipped back to the country for the people in the city to eat, not for you. !”

Jia Yi vomited more and more into a mess.

The county soldiers laughed loudly and quickly quickened their movements.

After all, the climate here is hot and humid. If the food has been soaked in water for a long time, I am afraid that it will still take root and sprout even if it is exposed to the sun...

By then, there will be no way to hand it over to the country!

..............................

The main camp of Xunjia Kingdom.

The cannons that rumbled all night showed no signs of stopping.

King Sunga was walking around like a headless fly.

The Brahmin gurus sat in the corner and chanted scriptures endlessly.

If you listen carefully, they are praying for Shiva to appear and overturn the ships of the Han army that make loud noises...

After all, they have no experience of 'study abroad' in Han, so naturally they don't know what the roaring noise is...

King Sunga looked at the masters and sighed.

If he guessed correctly, his military camp must be full of soldiers chanting and praying at this moment.

Such a cunning attack method by the Han army was beyond his expectation!

Well, he was not worried about being defeated by the muskets and artillery of Han soldiers on the frontal battlefield.

In this battle, the Sunda Kingdom mobilized 14 troops.

It can be said responsibly that this can be regarded as an all-out effort. Not only the standing army, but also many Brahmins sent out their own servants to protect the courtyard.

Therefore, when fighting the Han army, the Xunjia army could line up for dozens of miles!
It is no exaggeration to say that it is completely "people follow the herd" mode. The soldiers at the back of the queue can only see the backs of the heads of the soldiers in the front row, as well as the faces of the soldiers on the left, right and back rows.

In addition, they don't know where the enemy is coming from, nor where they are going to attack!
Therefore, as long as the micro management is done properly, even if the soldiers in the front row are dead, the soldiers in the back row will still move forward bravely without knowing anything!

At least before the advent of machine guns, this human sea tactic has always been miraculous.

In one of the few battles where Samurai Asan violently defeated the Big Lobster Soldiers, they used similar tactics!
Although King Xunjia did not know what was going to happen in the future, this kind of risk-taking assault, the tactical method of facing casualties and fighting the opponent face to face, had been around since humans started throwing stones to attack the opponent, so it was not unusual.

The only thing that worries him is actually Han's current attack method.

On the battlefield, the shouts of killing shook the sky, and the sound of cannons was not surprising.

It can be said that it was thunder...

But after the army set up camp, the camp was quiet, and anyone who shouted loudly would be punished. Therefore, how could the roar of cannons that lasted all night be deceived?

In particular, what was blown up was the food he had collected for a long time!

Hundreds of thousands of troops, tens of thousands of mouths, and tens of thousands of tons of rice eaten every day!
Now, half of it is gone!
The key issue is that the Han fleet is cruising along the river. How should he organize the transportation of grain to the rear?

How can we fight a war without food?
Therefore, we can only solve it quickly!
King Xunjia immediately loudly ordered the drums to be beaten to gather the generals.

This is a method he learned from the Han Dynasty, which is much more convenient than sending people to summon generals before!
Moreover, the sound of drums can also cover up the sound of cannons, and may also have the effect of stabilizing people's hearts.

The things from Han are good... King Xunjia nodded secretly, looked at the big boxes placed in his military tent, and became more and more confident.

Those were his imitation explosive packets. Although they were not as powerful as the explosive packets smuggled from Han, they were not as powerful as the explosive packets smuggled from Han, but one box of explosives could not blow open the walls of Han. Those ten boxes, one hundred boxes!
Anyway, he has mastered how to make it!
OneX, twoX, threeXX!

Except for the saltpeter, which requires a lot of work to scrape the toilet wall, there are a lot of other materials!

To this end, he has another plan.

After the war ended, or he forced Han to negotiate peace, he planned to build public toilets all over the country, forcing everyone to go to public toilets to relieve themselves, and then sell the feces to farmers to use as compost to increase food production, and by the way, he could scrape more. Saltpeter!
"What a pity. The emperor of Han should have been my good mentor..."

King Xunjia sighed silently.

He looked at the smoky statues, knelt down, and muttered words, praying for the gods' blessings.

ps: Bad harvest means that the crop yield is lower than the normal level; poor harvest means that the crops have not been completely harvested.
