I win the lottery in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 27 Ma Jun
Chapter 27 Ma Jun
The time when Cao Cao arrived in Luoyang was more than half a year earlier, which made Meng Chen feel a little flustered.

From this moment on, the history that Meng Chen is familiar with has shifted, and he, a little butterfly, has already caused huge waves.

It stands to reason that at this point, Cao Cao should have been fighting Lu Bu.

And when Cao Cao arrived in Luoyang at this time, it can only show that Lu Bu has been defeated, and the entire Yanzhou has fallen into the hands of Cao Cao.

But all of this has nothing to do with Mengchen directly. After all, he is not the one who threatens Cao Cao the most.

Mengchen's current situation can be said to be surviving in the cracks, with the Xiongnu in the north and the [-] troops of Li Jue, Guo Si, and Zhang Ji in the south.

Not only that, none of Ma Teng, Han Sui, and the many Qiang tribes in Xiliang is a soft persimmon.

Meng Chen wants to pacify Xiliang, it is not as easy as talking about it!
With [-] back-to-back troops, [-] Xuanjia iron cavalry, plus the young and strong recruited civilians, Meng Chen only has about [-] troops in his hands.

Relying on these more than [-] people, wanting to take down Xiliang and stabilize the situation is completely a daydream.

Meng Chen, who had returned to Linjing County, was not idle for a moment. The war was not only about military strength, but also comprehensive factors such as economy and agriculture.

Before soldiers and horses moved, food and grass went first, and food was the most important thing for the people. Therefore, Meng Chen, the governor of Xiliang, issued the first decree to vigorously develop agriculture.

Only by increasing food production can more troops be fed. Before Liu Bowen brought up the matter of military settlements, Meng Chen had already started to arrange them.

"The lord is far-sighted, I worship you!"

"A military adviser will also flatter others? This is not a good sign."

Although Meng Chen said this on his mouth, he couldn't mention how happy he was. It was really rare to be praised by Liu Bowen.

"The governor knows a thing or two about farming. It is difficult to increase the yield with the existing farming methods."

The current grain output of the Dahan is about three deniers per mu of land in a month, which is equivalent to about 59.2KG in later generations.

"What does my lord mean, is there a way to increase food production?"

Meng Chen nodded, just now, he had asked the system to deploy Ma Jun.

But the system also reminded that Ma Jun is not a general or a counselor, and whether he can serve against Meng Chen depends entirely on Meng Chen's personal charm.

In other words, even if this kind of talent is drawn, it is not necessarily 100% owned by Mengchen.

If, with the addition of this great inventor, combined with the "Steel Filling Method" produced by the system, combined with the knowledge of Meng Chen's later generations, it would not be difficult to increase grain production.

"Brother Shan, pass on an order. If you find a man with the surname Ma Mingjun who has a slight stutter, bring him to see me right away."

"promise."

In the last expedition, Meng Shan was left behind and hasn't seen him for a few months. Meng Shan's behavior has become much more stable.

"Brother Rengui, young and strong, hurry up and train, maybe when it snows, the Huns will go south again."

"Zhijie, the safety of the Governor's Mansion is in your hands!"

"Military division, brother Cunxiao, please leave the recruitment to the two of you. The governor needs to retreat for a few days and think about how to increase food production."

After arranging everything, Meng Chen entered the study.There are three ways to increase the yield of crops.

First, transform farming implements.

Second, improve planting methods.

Third, build water conservancy and irrigate farmland.

Compared with the land in Kanto, the land in Xiliang is relatively poor. The main reason is the lack of water, and the first thing Mengchen has to do is to draw the blueprint of the overturned car.

The overturned cart, also known as the keel waterwheel, is a keel waterwheel used by Chinese folks to irrigate farmland!Driven by hand, foot, cow, water or wind.

The keel leaf plate is used as a chain, lying in a rectangular long groove, the body is inclined to the river, the lower sprocket and a part of the body are submerged in the water, and when the sprocket is driven, the leaf plate wipes up along the groove and sends water out to the upper end of the long groove.

Such a continuous cycle transports the water to where it is needed, and the continuous water intake greatly improves the efficacy. It is easy to operate and carry, and can also transfer the water intake point in time. It is perfect for the cultivated land in Xiliang that is short of water.

As for the overturned car, it was in the hands of Ma Jun that it was improved in history, and then it began to be put into use on a large scale.

With overturned irrigation, this is not enough to guarantee an increase in grain production.The second blueprint Meng Chen drew was Qu Yuanli!
In the Han Dynasty, the plow was basically fixed, and the long straight shaft plow was used. When plowing the land, it was not flexible enough to turn back and turn, and the soil was laborious and not very efficient.

The Quyuan plow not only reduces the weight, but also increases the plow weight, plow construction and flexibility.

When plowing the land, the arrow of the plow can be made downward, and the plowshare can go deep into the soil.If you lift the plow, make the plow arrow upward, and the plowshare will enter the soil shallowly.

It can adapt to the different requirements of deep or shallow plowing, and can standardize the adjustment of the depth of cultivated land, which is convenient for intensive cultivation.

The plow wall of the curved plow can not only break up the soil, but also push the plowed soil to one side, reducing the resistance of the plow to advance.

The entire Quyuan plow has a complete structure, is light and labor-saving, and can greatly improve the efficiency of farming.

As for improving the planting method, Meng Chen doesn't know much about it, but Meng Chen is still clear about pigs running away and watering the ground with dung water before eating pork.

For a non-agricultural professional, being able to draw a crooked sketch is already an excellent task.

Three days later, when Chen Yaojin appeared in front of Meng Chen with a weak man with a yellow complexion, Meng Chen was so angry that he almost vomited three liters of blood.

"You are Ma Jun, Ma Deheng?"

"If you go back to the governor, Cao... Cao... Caomin is... Ma... Ma... Deheng!"

"Fufeng man?"

"exactly!"

All the conditions are right, Meng Chen no longer doubts, after all, he doesn't know what Ma Jun looks like, whether it is a mule or a horse, he only knows when he pulls it out for a while.

"Ma Deheng, do you like strange tricks?"

Ma Jun nodded, he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the young Xiliang governor in front of him, and he looked very nervous.

"Look at these two pictures, and then you will know the intention of this governor."

While talking, Meng Chen handed over the blueprint in his hand.

After a long while, Ma Jun's eyes lit up, and his hands holding the blueprint trembled involuntarily.

"If I let you do it, when will the sample be released?"

"It's easy to overturn a cart, but this plow requires high-quality iron."

Ma Jun suddenly became articulate, his eyes were fixed on the blueprint in his hand, and he didn't want to leave for a moment.

"What if you add this?"

While talking, Meng Chen handed over a roll of bamboo slips.If it wasn't for the fact that the paper hasn't been improved yet, Meng Chen wished he could even produce movable type printing.

"Guanggang Method", this kind of purely technical guidance book, in the eyes of craftsmen of this era, is definitely the existence of Tianshuban.

"prick……."

"What kind of thorn, are you willing to work for this assassin?"

After a pause, before Ma Jun could make a sound, Meng Chen continued: "Nod or shake your head! As for shaking your head, the consequence is naturally that you can't get out of this room."

Meng Chen's words were full of threats, for Ma Jun, there was no other option at all!
