Three Kingdoms: I Have a Showdown, I Am Cao Cao

"Zixiao, we are in big trouble this time!"

"Huh? Big trouble?" Cao Ren was slightly taken aback, "Meng De, let's hear it..."

Cao Ren walked to Cao Cao's side and seemed to share the burden for Cao Cao...

"This...forget it!" Cao Cao waved his hand, and one more person knew that it was nothing more than more troubles, and it didn't help, so Cao Cao simply didn't talk about so many troubles.

"By the way, Zixiao." Cao Cao changed the subject. "You're here this time? What's the matter?"

"Oh..." Cao Ren then remembered that he had something to report, or something that Cao Cao was very concerned about...

"Meng De..." Cao Ren raised his voice, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and his expression seemed very happy. "Brother Yi has already arrived at Youjian Villa outside Xuchang City..."

Cao Ren said half of what he said...

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao slapped the case all of a sudden.

"Arrived? Has it arrived yet?"

Seeing Cao Cao's appearance a little excited, Cao Ren scratched his head and hurriedly replied: "I've already arrived, I arrived this morning, and now I'm busy cleaning up in the wine shop in the villa, I'm afraid that the wine shop, the medical office, and the blacksmith shop will be ready in the next few days. Open!"

"Open..."

Cao Cao murmured these two words, and then, his eyes flashed, and a gleam of light suddenly appeared.

"Open well, open well!"

As he spoke, Cao Cao grabbed Cao Ren and walked quickly outside the General's Mansion...

"Meng De? You... Where are you going? In such a hurry?" Cao Ren felt a little pain in his arrest.

"Go to Youjian Villa! Brother Yi is here this time, and it's wonderful. He is a divine soldier who has come to solve my urgent needs here!"

When Cao Cao said these words, there was light in his eyes...

This time, he really regarded Yi Xiaotian as a savior!

Chapter [-] The icing on the cake Winter wheat

Thirty miles from the suburb of Xudu, there is a villa.

At this moment, it is noon.

The sky in September was already a bit biting, and the successive light rains added a bit of cold to the unpredictable ghost weather in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. In the ice crystals, it seems extraordinarily peaceful.

The hooves of "Da Da Da" resounded, and two vigorous and fast horses were galloping on the official road outside Xudu City.

One of the horses is snow-white and has four golden hooves. It looks noble and arrogant. This is Cao Cao's newly purchased mount - Claw Yellow Flying Electric!

Beside it, Cao Ren raised his whip and ridiculed.

"Meng De, I know it, the military resources are so tight, but you insist on cultivating the official way. It turns out that this is the reason!"

"Haha..." It was Cao Cao who was galloping on the Huang Fei Electric Claw.

At this moment, he laughed loudly, "Zixiao, it is said that if you want to be rich, you must build roads first. If Xuducheng wants to develop, why not build official roads? Do you need me to explain this principle?"

Ha ha…

Cao Ren said "hehe"!

He shook his head, thinking about it with his toes, he knew, where did Cao Cao build roads to develop Xudu?

What's more, there are four roads in the south, south, north and west outside Xudu City, why is the only one built in the south, not for the Youjian Villa [-] miles south of the city, for that brother Yi, who is thinking about it?

"Meng De, you just want to see Brother Yi as soon as possible, it's not ashamed, why are you making other excuses..." Cao Ren waved his hand and simply pointed it out.

Well…

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed "haha", finally telling the truth. "If this official road to Youjian Villa is not repaired, I feel uneasy and can't sleep!"

Cao Ren is silent...

Relocating restaurants, repairing official roads, and building private schools, isn't everything the eldest brother Cao Cao does for the sake of Brother Yi!

Today, Brother Yi's status in the heart of the elder brother is afraid that it is getting higher and higher.

After some sighs, the two stopped talking and quickly drove into Youjian Villa...

……

……

Cao Cao and Cao Ren just entered the gate of Youjian Villa. Under the rows of peach groves, they saw Yi Xiaotian with a lot of buddies busy in a clearing in the peach grove.

It seems that with a hoe and a few oxen, it looks like they are plowing the land!

Brother Yi, is this?

Cao Cao's eyes rolled and turned, pondering, how strange is Brother Yi?How could he plough Longtian?

No, it's weird!

This is by no means simply farming, Brother Yi must be tinkering with something new.

A few guys noticed the arrival of Cao Cao and Cao Ren, and whispered a reminder in Yi Xiaotian's ear.

Yi Xiaotian hurriedly patted the soil on his body, turned his eyes to Cao Cao's side, and extended his hand to greet him... "Brother lie, long time no see, much younger!"

After all, he is the big gold lord, the big fat sheep, the big leek, and Yi Xiaotian is still very polite to Cao Cao.

Yao remembered the old days, but if he concealed his brother and came to the wine shop, he would slash the money bag with a knife. It was sour, very authentic!

"Brother Yi, are you still getting used to this villa?"

Cao Cao got off his horse and asked while rushing towards Yi Xiaotian.

"Habit, habit!" Yi Xiaotian replied, but then waved his long sleeves and pointed to the villa behind him. "There are also things that I'm not used to, that is, it's big, so big, it takes a long time to walk around..."

"Hahahaha..." Cao Cao laughed. "It's good to be big, it's good to be big, only this huge manor is worthy of Brother Yi!"

Cao Cao did not hesitate to praise Yi Xiaotian...

In the final analysis, this time, the westward march to Luoyang, to welcome the Son of Heaven, to make Xuchang the capital, and to conquer Yuzhou, are all thanks to Brother Yi.

There are too many links in the middle, and each link can determine the success or failure. If Yi Xiaotian had not expected the enemy to come first, Cao Cao would have made a response strategy early in the morning. I am afraid that this emperor, this Xudu, this Yuzhou, do not know who will kill the deer. Woolen cloth!

After a wistful laugh, Cao Cao noticed that Yi Xiaotian was really plowing the land. His body was covered in mud, and his hands were dingy.

only…

"Brother Yi? You have a lot of guys under your command now, so why bother to farm by yourself? Besides, don't you buy all the ingredients in a restaurant? Why do you need to go to the ground yourself..."

Cao Cao even noticed a special point - the season.

With this in mind, Cao Cao continued to add:

"What's more, winter is coming. Whether it's rice or wheat, it's not the season for planting. In winter, the seedlings will freeze to death. If there is no harvest next year, wouldn't it be futile."

Although Cao Cao didn't know much about agriculture, he still knew that farming in winter was no different than fishing with a rotten net - nothing!

Seeing that Brother Yi was working so hard with little success, Cao Cao felt that he was not worth it.

"Brother, don't worry..." Yi Xiaotian stretched out his finger to the soil that had just been opened behind him, "I just want to try how to grow wheat in winter."

what…

As soon as these words blurted out, not only Cao Cao, but also Cao Ren next to him was shocked.

You should know that in the Han Dynasty, the cultivation of wheat was mainly spring wheat, which was sown after the Spring Festival and harvested in August and September. This was due to its strong drought resistance and short growth period.

But?Winter wheat?

This is unheard and unseen. Wheat has strong drought resistance, but not necessarily strong cold resistance?Humans can't handle such cold weather?Can wheat survive it?This…

Seeing Cao Cao and Cao Ren's confused faces...

Yi Xiaotian shook his head, this thing can't be explained at all.

I can't tell them, I have a vast land in China, and my ancestors have long since researched the method of growing winter wheat.

It is too cold in the northeast, and wheat can only be planted when the temperature rises in spring;

But the North China and the Central Plains are different. The temperature here is much warmer than that of the Northeast. The seedlings of wheat can survive the winter, and once the winter comes, the seedlings divide quickly and grow fast, so the winter wheat is milled. The flour is even better!

Of course, this agricultural knowledge is very complicated to discuss...

Yi Xiaotian simply waved his hand. "Brother lie, brother Ren, let's do it, in April or May next year, I invite you to taste the taste of this winter wheat, you will be even more surprised by then!"

Happy to hear it...

Cao Cao is happy, and Cao Ren is also happy. If what Yi Xiaotian said is true, winter wheat can be planted and promoted on a large scale. With spring wheat, it can even be twice a year, double the yield, not to mention whether it is delicious or not. It's delicious. How many soldiers and how many people can you feed alone?

Cao Cao hopes that this winter wheat that Yi Xiaotian has been tinkering with can really be realized, that's amazing!

and many more…

When it came to feeding the soldiers and the common people, Cao Cao suddenly thought of the big problem he was facing now-the problem of food and grass supply.

Obviously, the winter wheat that Yi Xiaotian has been tinkering with can add to the icing on the cake, but it cannot fundamentally solve the problem of grain and grass, let alone provide charcoal in the snow.

Now facing Cao Cao is the problem that the wasteland has been reclaimed, and no one has cultivated or dared to cultivate.

Faced with this thorny problem, Cao Cao's curiosity about winter wheat disappeared all of a sudden, his face suddenly became very heavy, and his eyes were full of helplessness.

"Brother? Why did your face suddenly become so ugly?"

Naturally, Yi Xiaotian noticed Cao Cao's expression and asked curiously...

"Brother Yi, I have a big problem."

Cao Cao raised his eyes, and his eyes were full of helplessness. He let out a long sigh before explaining it in detail.

"Since Cao Cao used my strategy a few times, it was to welcome the emperor, and to take over Yuzhou. The territory became bigger and bigger, and there were more and more soldiers under his command, but now... If there is any problem, Cao Cao habitually runs away. Come ask me, I...I..."

It is also difficult for Cao Cao to make up such a big pass. The key is to justify it. This is not easy.

"Ugh…"

Cao Cao sighed again, his throat choked up, and after seven or eight breaths, he continued to speak, but there was a bit more grievance and helplessness in his tone.

"Brother Yi, others don't know about it, but you don't know yet? Give Cao Cao a second strategy, where is this my strategy? This is all thanks to you, Brother Yi. No, Cao Cao throws a series of questions over here. If I don’t answer, Bao Buqi will definitely be suspicious because of Cao Cao’s temperament, and I will investigate carefully, and maybe I will find Brother Yi, and then Brother Yi will not be able to be so quiet.”

Speaking of this, Cao Cao paused for a while, his big eyes became watery, "Brother Yi has no intention of being a temple, so, I am in a dilemma, so I can only ask Brother Yi for advice!"
