Three Kingdoms: Starting from the best little county magistrate

Listening to Xiao Yi's words, Lu Zhi was silent.

When he came out of the court, he knew that there were few officials who really served the country and the people. Even if there are such people, they will have their own little abacus in their hearts.

If there is chaos today, the binding force of the imperial court is reduced to a minimum.

In order to calm the judgment, the Son of Heaven asked local officials to recruit troops on their own to suppress the rebels. This has also directly led to the rise of many careerists, and the situation of separating the heroes has already taken shape.

"How's it going, where is the Yellow Turban Thief?"

Yat asked the scouts around him.

"Back to the lord, after the Yellow Turban Thief entered Zhuo County, he suddenly reduced the speed of his march, and his intention is still unknown. "

"Reduced marching speed?"

Xiao Yi and the others were puzzled.

It stands to reason that they waved 100,000 troops to kill them, shouldn't they be in one go?

Deliberately slowing down the march will not only reduce your morale, but also give the opponent plenty of time to prepare.

The bigwigs on the city wall were confused by the fan-like operation of the Yellow Turban Army.

Xiao Yi's gaze swept over Liu Ji, Xu Shu, Xun You, Lu Zhi and others, all of whom were confused.

now

Among the ranks of the Yellow Turbans,

Zhang Bao, who was in charge of the Chinese army, was also confused: how did the marching speed come down!

"What's going on, why is the team slowing down?"

He asked left and right.

Left and right hurriedly went to the front to investigate, and after a while, returned with shock.

"Doctor, go to the front and take a look, and you'll understand. "

At the place of the uprising, Zhang Jiao claimed to be a great sage and good teacher, while Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang both claimed to be great doctors.

That's what his cronies call him.

"Oh?"

Zhang Bao was puzzled, knowing that the guards would not deceive him, so he took a few generals and walked towards the front of the team.

Because their team is too large, he is still in the territory of Zhuo County at the moment in the Chinese army, and has not entered the territory of Zhuo County.

However, as he continued to go deeper into Zhuo County, Zhang Bao and the generals around him were all stunned.

Under the four fields, there are green grains everywhere, and on the hills, there are fruit tree saplings that they are familiar with. Patches and patches, apparently planted by someone.

"Doctor, this ......"

The generals under Zhang Bao didn't react for a while.

They are all farmers and have been farming all their lives, but they have never seen such good crops grow!

"I'm afraid there will be a lot of harvest on this acre of land. "

"What is that thing, which can transport water from a low place to a high place? With so many canals dug here, and the planning is very reasonable, it is no wonder that such a good crop can be harvested! This county order is really unusual. "

"What's in the land over there?"

After a while, they were attracted by the green, man-tall plant on the hillside.

Obviously, this kind of crop that appears in patches must be artificially cultivated.

However, the Yellow Turbans, who were farmers, did not know this crop.

"Zhou Cang, you go and have a look," Zhang Bao instructed his generals, and then admonished,

"Remember not to destroy these crops!"

For the peasants, it is a sin to destroy the crops. Moreover, the crops here are growing so well, like the works of art of the farmers, which is even more reluctant to destroy.

They know how fortunate it is to grow food.

Therefore, these traitors, who kill and set fires without blinking an eye, have never destroyed the crops in the fields.

"My subordinates know. "

Zhou Cang walked into the field, and soon, found the budding fruit on the stalk. He broke one down and returned to Zhang Bao.

"Doctor, what kind of crop is this?"

The great doctor is a disciple of the immortals, well-informed, and what they don't know, the great doctor must know.

However, seeing this thing that looked like an elongated water droplet, Zhang Bao was also a little dumbfounded.

I haven't seen it.

"Open it and see if it's edible. "

Zhang Bao peeled off the skin of the thing layer by layer, and after a while, a stick covered with small white particles appeared in front of them.

The small white particles are very tender, and when you pinch them gently, they break and come out with a fragrant juice.

Zhou Cang deducted two grains and tasted them,

"Well, there is sweetness in astringency, and if it grows ripe, it will definitely be very sweet and glutinous. For sure, this stuff is edible!"

"Oh my God!"

"Such a large piece, if you can eat it, how much food can you harvest!"

"And these grain fields, growing so well, one acre of land will definitely be able to produce three or four stones of grain!"

The reason why the Yellow Turban Army stopped was completely attracted by the crops in front of them.

They are reluctant to destroy these crops. Therefore, when walking, they deliberately avoid them and cannot bear to trample on them.

"Doctor, the soldiers have something on their minds, and their morale is relatively low at the moment, so let's retreat first. "

Zhou Cang took a look and saw that everyone was attracted by the crops, and they were eager to rush into the field to work, and they had no desire to fight at all.

As a general, Zhou Cang knew that this battle would definitely not be able to be fought.

"Well, first withdraw from Zhuo County and go down to the village in Qi County.

Zhou Cang, you can take a few people to ask what kind of grain is grown in this field. "

Zhang Bao waved his hand and led everyone to retreat to Qixian.

Zhou Cang pretended to be a farmer and returned to Zhuo County.

On the city wall, the scout suddenly came to report that the Yellow Turban Army had withdrawn, which made everyone a little confused.

"Withdrawn?"

"What do you mean? Are they just here to visit?"

Xiao Yi looked at the group of generals around him, but none of them could answer.

"Where they stopped, did they see something, tell me in detail what you saw. "

Liu Ji asked the scout.

Although the scout is far away, he has good eyesight and can see it roughly.

"It seems that one of the Yellow Turban thieves went into the cornfield, broke a corn cob and went back, and then it didn't take long for them to withdraw. "

"A cornfield can actually scare off an army of 100,000?

Xiao Yat thought it was ridiculous.

"Ming Gong, maybe there is such a possibility. "

This is, Xun You, who had not spoken, walked out with a smile and bowed to Xiao Yi, "Congratulations to Ming Gong, it is your benevolent government that surrenders without a fight." "

"What does this gentleman mean is that the Yellow Turban Thieves saw the upcoming bumper harvest in our Zhuo County, so they withdrew from the army?"

Liu Ji asked.

Xun You nodded, "That's true."

There is no second place in the world where there can be such fine crops. Most of the Yellow Turban Thieves are desperate farmers who have been growing crops for generations and are especially kind when they see them.

Perhaps they had never seen such a good crop, and they couldn't bear to destroy it, so they withdrew their troops.

Perhaps, they are very envious of the people of Zhuo County, who do not have to go hungry in the future and can live a rich and happy life. They want to live like this, too. "

Anyway, the Yellow Turbans retreated.

The literati breathed a sigh of relief, but the generals felt pity.
