Destiny Only Han

Chapter 200 Ginger is still an old rua!

"Stop, don't run, run and let the dog go..."

Liu Ying led, or rather was dragged forward by two big black dogs, and not far in front of him were Xia Houzao and Lu Tai who were running around with their heads in their arms.

The origin of the story is very simple. After Liu Bang gained a firm foothold in Guanzhong, the heroes who followed him to conquer the world also took their family to Liyang one after another.

And those brats who are used to being wild in the countryside naturally didn't stop for a moment.

These days, as the corn planted by Liu Ying was gradually bearing ears, the prodigal man waved his hand and rewarded his old brothers with the green corn that Liu Ying kept for himself.

Although there are not many, each person is divided into one or two spikes.

But, I can't stand the rarity of this thing!

So, after those bear children couldn't ask for it from their own fathers, they missed the cornfields on the outskirts of the city.

How could the farmers who were in charge of taking care of the corn fields dare to obstruct these guys? They just hurriedly sent someone to send the news of someone stealing corn to Liu Ying's East Palace...

Well, the so-called East Palace is actually a small courtyard next to the Hanwang Palace. Lu Zhi asked someone to build a small gate in the backyard, connected by corridors, so that he could control Liu Ying's every move at any time.

For this reason, Liu Ying used her study as an excuse to stay at Zhang Liang's house...

On this day, after receiving the news from the farmer, he and Zhang Buyi went to Fan Kuai's house to borrow two hounds, and began to sit on the sidelines.

When Fan Kuai was in Pei County, his family kept many dogs.

After all, meat is a relatively expensive resource, and during this period, there were no good fresh-keeping methods, so most butchers collected some livestock from ordinary people's homes to raise them at home, slaughtered and sold them while fattening them.

But today is different from the past, Fan Kuai no longer needs to be a dog butcher. There are only two kinds of dogs at home. One is a hound for hunting and guarding, and the other is a meat dog for eating.

Well, in fact, there is no boundary between the two...

At this moment, not only Liu Ying, who was dragged forward by the two big dogs, panicked, but also Xia Houzao and Lu Tai who were running ahead were the same.

Especially Xia Houzao, he is an honest man, but he couldn't resist Lu Tai's instigation, so he came with him.

He swears, this is really his first time to steal corn!
Moreover, as soon as they appeared sneakily, they were spotted by hounds squatting in the shade, panting with their tongues out...

So, there was a scene where Liu Ying was passively chasing after them, and they ran desperately in front.

Zhang Buyi followed behind Liu Ying, laughing as he ran.

At that time, he and Liu Ying were squatting behind a tree, and Liu Ying used her arm as a mold to show him several knot-tying techniques she had just learned.

So, this is the feeling of flying...

"Run, keep running!"

Panting, Liu Ying stood still, looking at Xia Houzao, who was blushing, and Lu Tai, who was faceless.

Well, Lu Zhi has some attributes of 'Voldemort', and has always treated Lu Ze's sons as his own. The way he treats them is similar to Liu Fei and Liu Ruyi.

As for the two big black dogs that Liu Ying was leading, they were lying on Xia Houzao's lap at the moment, jumping and jumping to show their intimacy, the kind that almost broke their waists!

As a child of the Peixian Group, Xia Houzao often followed Xia Houying to Fan Kuai's place to eat and drink, so these watchdogs were not much different from each other and Liu Ying in terms of familiarity.

It's a pity that these hounds who 'surrender to the enemy' don't know that people's hearts are sinister, and they don't realize the one black, two white, three flowers and four yellow...

Liu Ying untied the rope tied around her wrist, and rubbed the scarred area: "Tell me, how many times is this?"

Lu Tai smiled obsequiously: "Brother, this is really the first time, you have to trust brother..."

I believe you ghost!I shouldn't have asked this question... Liu Ying stretched out her hand and pulled Lu Tai away, looking directly at Xia Houzao, the eldest son of Xia Houying: "If you want to eat, just tell me no. Listen to me, and don't talk to me from now on." This kind of people are mixed together!"

Lu Tai laughed awkwardly at the side, but he was not angry, after all, these were real relatives, and they had played together since childhood, with deep feelings.

Xia Houzao looked at Lu Tai, who was fooling around, and at Liu Ying, who was a head shorter than him, nodded slightly, and took half a step diagonally in Liu Ying's direction.

Seeing him abandoning the dark and turning to the bright, Liu Ying was overjoyed, she tried her best to stretch her arms around the other's shoulders, and dragged her towards the small farmyard in the distance.

"When I came, my eldest brother had just caught two broods of voles and went to eat roast voles and roast corn..."

In the other direction they left, a man with a high nose bridge and a beard, with a few sneaky figures, slowly got out of the green gauze tent without making a sound. From the arms of each of them, it seemed They are all bulging, obviously they have gained a lot!
The leading man glanced back at Liu Ying, who was walking away with his shoulders hooked, raised his head and smiled silently.

Today, he was teaching his little boy a lesson.

What, called ginger or old rua!

Until, he saw Taigong Liu with a cane in his hand and a sneer on his face.

"Father, listen to my explanation, a father who steals his son is not considered a thief..."

"It hurts, it hurts... Dad, when did you change your crutches to iron ones!"

…………

Sanchuan County, Luoyang.

The autumn and August of the second year of the Han Dynasty, converted to the time of later generations, should roughly be the golden autumn and October.

At this time, the corn and rice sown in spring begin to mature. On the field, the wind blows the rice waves, and the frogs sing. There are farmers wearing bamboo hats and shirtless harvesting crops in the fields everywhere.

Well, actually, in some places, people start harvesting at night, by moonlight.

There is no way, limited by productivity, clothes are a valuable consumer product, and a good set of clothes is mostly treated as an inheritance, which is precious and valued to be passed on to children and grandchildren.

Therefore, when the moon and stars are thin, married and childbearing women who huddle at home during the day to wash and cook in order to harvest grains need to start working in the farmland shirtless, just like men.

On the road next to the farmland, Liu Ying raised the curtains on the carriage and observed the straight road in front of her.

Due to insufficient cement production capacity, his previous plan to pave Chidao all over again has only been completed less than half.

Only for the army or the first emperor to travel, the middle part of the road was paved with a layer of cement, and the roads on both sides for civilian officials were still the original dirt roads.

Moreover, the grains began to mature gradually this month. Except for the Metallurgical Workshop, many places that needed labor had been shut down.

At this time, it is the highest priority to go all out to collect grain and ensure that the grains are returned to the warehouse.

After all, when the grain of the Han State is ripe, the grain of the Chu State must also be ripe.

Next, we have to face Xichu's real attack with all his strength!

To be honest, facing the Chu army whose combat power has soared to the highest state, even Han Xin at this stage is not sure of victory.

In his plan, it is impossible to go out of the city to fight in the field, and it is the best policy to defend the city.

In the era of cold weapons, a conscripted farmer had to receive at least three years of military training before he could become a qualified soldier.

Then, you need to fight one or two more big battles to become a good fighter.

To become an elite, you need to crawl out of the dead once or twice at least.

Among the Han army, there are not many such soldiers.

But the Chu army, which has been repeatedly entangled with the Qin army since the Chen Sheng Wu Guang uprising, and has been defeated and destroyed several times, such soldiers abound.

Not to mention, Xiang Yu used the power of the whole country to raise the tens of thousands of elite cavalry.

Once the other party recharges their batteries, the supply of food and grass will be sufficient.

In the field battle, the Han army has no chance of winning!

Even in the face of a siege battle, the Han army needs to show complete determination to keep the city from being breached by the Chu army.

And this is why Liu Bang himself led the army to the front line of Xingyang.

In his plan, Zhou Bo was responsible for guarding Ao Cang and building tunnels to ensure the supply of grain and grass in Xingyang City.

And Fan Kuai, the number one general in the Han army, was responsible for guarding Guangwu and protecting the flanks of the entire army, so as not to be outflanked by Xiang Yu and attack from the side and rear of the Han army.

For the purpose of ensuring the safety of his back, Liu Bang let go of his pride once again, and sent Li Shiqi to persuade Wei Bao. As long as the opponent could surrender, he was willing to ignore the past and still guarantee the opponent's kingship.

For this reason, he even promised Li Shiqi that as long as he can successfully persuade Wei Bao to surrender, he can make Li Shiqi the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!
While Liu Bang was anxiously waiting for the good news from the north, Liu Ying's carriage turned south and separated from the large army.

The place Liu Ying is going to is Luoyang's official warehouse.

The initial scale here is actually not much smaller than Ao Cang.

After all, this place used to be King Ji of Zhou. As the Zhou Dynasty that attached great importance to farming, they were actually paranoid about building granaries.

It's a pity that with the decline of the Zhou royal family, especially when the last emperor Zhou Nan came to power, the small Zhou Wangji was divided into three parts.

In the middle is the territory directly under the jurisdiction of Emperor Zhou, and on both sides are the two vassal states of Western Zhou Kingdom and Eastern Zhou Kingdom...

Zhou Tianzi, who is wealthy in the world in name, actually controls a territory that is almost the same as a town.

The so-called emperor is just a mayor!
As for the surrounding Qin, Wei and Han, except for South Korea, which has stretched a little bit, which one does not have the territory of one or several provinces!
After King Nan of Zhou went bankrupt completely and left behind the idiom of high debts, the huge Luoyang warehouse naturally had no maintenance fees. When Qin unified the world, most of them were unusable.

However, the reason why Qin State abandoned Luoyang City and rebuilt Ao Cang was that Ao Cang was close to the chasm, so it was convenient to transport grain with water.

If the grain is still stored in the Luoyang warehouse, it means that the collected grain tax needs to be transported westward.

After coming and going again and again, the accumulation of less becomes more, and the loss in it is actually an astronomical sum.

But now, Liu Ying has no choice.

Although Ao Cang is good, it is on the front line of the war. Once it is breached by the Chu army and the Han army runs out of food, the tragedy in history will repeat itself.

Without Ji Xin's willingness to die, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Liu Bang to escape.

And Zhou Ke will also be cooked alive after the city is broken!
