MTL - Hot Farmer’s Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm-Chapter 320 320 Settled six thousand people

   Chapter 320 320 Settling Six Thousand People

  Emperor Yan of course wanted to expel the people of the Chiwu Army in the territory of Yan State, thereby cutting off the supply of food and salaries for the Chiwu Army and forcing the Chiwu Army to submit.

  Unfortunately, it's not that easy.

   Lin Xiaoyue's heart moved.

   "Now, how is the situation with the Chiwu Army?" Chong Lixiao asked.

   "Not good." Li Xiao sighed.

   "Emperor Yan investigated and punished the property of the Nangong family. Although most of the Chiwu Army in charge of the property escaped, too many properties were damaged. The remaining properties can no longer support the consumption of the border."

   "The consumption of nearly 6,000 troops and horses at the border is not small even if the army is not paid."

   Fortunately, the Chiwu Army does not go out of the city to fight, but only sticks to the gate.

  The loss of weapons and armor is small, and the biggest expenditure is only on the daily food of humans and horses.

   But even so, he couldn't hold it any longer.

  Emperor Yan is now seeing that the Chiwu Army has no support and is almost out of food, so he sits and watches the Chiwu Army continue to exist.

   is looking for an opportunity to incorporate the Chiwu Army, or force the Chiwu Army to rebel, and then completely destroy the Nangong family.

   Right now, the Chiwu Army has actually fallen into a predicament.

  Lin Xiaoyue frowned.

   Raising an army of 6,000 people is indeed a lot of consumption.

   Not including military salaries, one person and one horse, adding up to a month, even if it only costs one tael of silver, six thousand people will get six thousand taels.

  The border is bitterly cold, and now the season has entered winter.

   It hasn't snowed yet in Dashi Village. If it was at the border, the snow might have already fallen.

  It's been a while since the accident at Nangong's house. This year, the Chiwu Army's winter clothes are probably not ready.

   "It's not a good thing for the Chiwu Army to stay at the border." Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao.

  6,000 Chiwu Army, living under the supervision of Emperor Yan.

   Their food, clothing, housing, and transportation are under guard at any time.

   If someone delivered a large amount of food and salaries to the Chiwu Army, it was very likely that Emperor Yan would be caught.

   Then follow the clues, catch the hidden people, and even implicate them.

   But if you don't care, then 6,000 people will be miserable.

   Either compromise and surrender to Emperor Yan. Either rebel and be slaughtered by Emperor Yan.

  Li Xiao nodded.

   "With tens of thousands of people, it is not easy to evacuate. In addition, it is difficult to arrange the evacuation of soldiers."

   He was thinking about this before, but he never made up his mind.

   Once the Chiwu Army withdraws, Emperor Yan will surely pursue him. If the follow-up is not arranged in advance, it is very likely to be encircled and suppressed.

  Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

   "Most of the people in the Chiwu Army are orphans, and the information on the soldiers has not been recorded in the imperial army book, but there is no need to worry about implicated family members." Chong Lin Xiaoyue said.

  So, the most difficult thing is actually how to settle the 6,000 people who have withdrawn.

   Six thousand people, no matter where they are arranged, the target is too big.

  Lin Xiaoyue's eyes moved.

   "Maybe, I can arrange it." Then, he said solemnly.

  Li Xiao was shocked.

  Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

   "My three villagers are short of manpower."

   The surprise in Li Xiao's eyes quickly returned to dullness.

   "It's not impossible to arrange some people to go to Zhuangzi to help farm the land. But how many people can a Zhuangzi arrange?" Three hundred people can be overwhelming.

  6,000 people, at least 20 big Zhuangzi can hold it.

  Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

   "Each village has 400 people. Responsible for land reclamation, farming, farming and workshops."

  Li Xiao looked suspicious.

  Lin Xiaoyue ignored it and continued: "After we go, we may not need so many people in the early stage, but when the first season of Chili comes out, these people will probably not want to relax."

   "You have also seen the chili we planted in our family this year. With less than an acre of land, when it was time to pick chili peppers, Aunt Jiang and Xiao Hua were barely able to handle the red chili peppers in the field."

   "There are three villages in our family, and the total land of each village is close to 300 acres. When the pepper production season comes, 400 people will join the battle, which is almost enough to cope."

   "In addition to picking the peppers from the ground, you also need someone to dry the peppers. Also, when the peppers are collected, some people will be allocated to make the peppers into pepper powder, and then arrange to send them back to the Dashi Village workshop."

   "After that, when the peppers in the field were collected, things seemed to be less. But Zhuangzi will be full of peppers when he arrives. These are all waiting for them to grind slowly. No worries."

   "In addition to the work of processing chili powder, the sweet potato vines in the field had come out at that time, and the piglets had already entered the pigpen. The pig farm had to be looked after."

   "Also, we have to take care of the sweet potato vines and weeding in the ground. In the next month, new pepper seedlings will be planted in the ground."

   "Then in just two months, the second season of peppers will be produced, followed by digging sweet potatoes."

   "When the time comes, it's really busy."

  The corners of Lin Xiaoyue's mouth raised, "The peppers from the first season have not been ground into powder yet, and the peppers from the second season are here again."

   "At that time, not only will I have to rush to collect the red peppers in the field, but I will also have to dig up the sweet potatoes when the peppers are taken back."

   "After this is done, there are sweet potatoes on Zhuangzi, so it's time to put in the chicks again. The chicken farm has to arrange for manpower."

  Li Xiao was shocked.

   "The chili and sweet potatoes are taken back, so that the workshops making chili powder in Zhuangzi can continue to increase their output."

   "At the same time, sweet potatoes come out. I also want to send some people out to make sweet potato flour and vermicelli."

   "In this way, I'm afraid there will not be enough manpower." Lin Xiaoyue said, her brows were already wrinkled.

   Then, he looked at Li Xiao, "According to my estimation, after the last season of peppers is produced, the dried red peppers and sweet potatoes left in Zhuangzi will be enough for the workshop on Zhuangzi to process the new season of peppers the next year."

   In other words, the whole winter, the people on Zhuangzi don’t want to be idle.

   There are 400 people in the district, which is more than the people in one village of Dashi Village. Of course, in the case of Dashi Village, the old and the young were not removed.

   She arranged a village, which was more than enough.

  Li Xiao listened to Lin Xiaoyue's analysis, knowing that she knew the production of peppers and sweet potatoes better than herself, and agreed with her statement.

   "One village houses four hundred people, and three houses only 1,200 people." Li Xiao frowned. The distance of 6,000 people is still a lot.

   But the look is better than before.

   "One village is naturally not enough." Lin Xiaoyue's eyes moved.

   "The First Prince recruited you to a large extent, and it should be for the Chiwu Army."

  Li Xiao was taken aback.

   nodded.

   The Chiwu Army, although it was damaged by a small half, is still far from the strength of other armies in the Yan Kingdom.

   Even if there are only 6,000 people left, the combat power is comparable to 60,000.

   This kind of army, not only Emperor Yan wanted to subdue, but the first prince naturally wanted to.

   "Then let the eldest prince send me some Zhuangzi." Lin Xiaoyue smiled brightly.

  Li Xiao was stunned.

   Let the eldest prince send Zhuangzi? This... doesn't seem to be impossible.

   A Chuang Tzu arranges 400 people. If there are 6,000 people, 15 Chuang Tzus are enough.

  Thinking of this, Li Xiao's expression became a little moved.

   made Lin Xiaoyue smile.

   "It's just that Zhuangzi who grows peppers needs a lot of people. Besides, Qingshi Town can't get so many Zhuangzi."

  Because the geographical location of Qingshi Town is really good, Zhuangzi is really expensive and hard to buy.

  Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue suspiciously.

   There are not so many Zhuangzi, how can that person arrange?

  Lin Xiaoyue continued: "If the eldest prince makes a move, there should be two or three more pepper-growing Zhuangzi around Qingshi Town. It shouldn't be a big problem. Try to get as many as six, so that 2,400 people can be arranged."

   "Besides, when people arrive, Zhuangzi is not the only place to go. My chain store also needs people."

  Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue again.

   "I'm talking about snack workshops." Lin Xiaoyue said.

   Naturally, it is impossible for Chiwujun to be a clerk and be seen by others.

  It is safest to let them work in the snack workshop and reduce going out.

   "A snack workshop that serves three snack bars requires at least one steward and accountant, two servants who deliver and buy goods together, and six people who prepare snacks, as well as wash dishes and do chores."

   "That is to say, a snack workshop must have at least nine people. This is still for the smallest snack workshop."

   "If there are many snack bars around the snack workshop, there will be more people in the workshop. For example, Nan'an County, if the place is too big, it will not be a problem to accommodate 30 or 40 people."

   "In this way, two or three hundred people can be arranged. Adding the people from the six villages, there are almost three thousand people."

The extra    can be distributed to Zhuangzi. Anyway, Zhuangzi has a lot of things to do, so he can arrange it.

  Li Xiao nodded.

  Three thousand people, such an arrangement has already solved half of the problem.

  Lin Xiaoyue continued, "I think it's too eye-catching to bring all 6,000 people to Qingshi Town."

   Even, three thousand people are already very eye-catching. But it can only be arranged that way.

  Fortunately, when they come, let them stay in Zhuangzi, which can reduce some risks.

   "However, Nan'an County is very big. In addition to Qingshi Town, there are actually many big towns. Among them, I am more optimistic about Taohua Town and Daxi Town next to us."

   "Although these two towns are not more prosperous than Qingshi Town, they are not small in size. The important thing is that the places are a little bit off and are not so noticeable."

   "Before, I asked my sister-in-law and brother Hei to help me and asked me to buy Zhuangzi. As a result, I found that the Zhuangzi in Qingshi Town is not easy to buy, but the Zhuangzi in Taohua Town is cheap and many people sell it."

   "In Daxi Town, the situation should be similar."

   "So, as long as we have money in hand, let's buy more Zhuangzi, and we can arrange the rest."

  Li Xiao's heart moved.

   "In this way, it is not difficult to arrange these 6,000 people. The difficult thing is how to hide people's eyes and eyes and let them come back from the border."

  Li Xiao frowned.

  Yeah, 6,000 people poured into three towns so close to each other, it's too hard to be unnoticed.

   Lin Xiaoyue reached out and stroked Li Xiao's brow.

   "It must be arranged separately." Lin Xiaoyue said.

  Li Xiao's heart moved, his big hand grabbed Lin Xiaoyue's hand and brought the person into his arms.

   "You're right." Sighed.

   "General Manager Fang discussed with me before, and arranged for the soldiers to be withdrawn to Hanshan Town, and then scattered and evacuated back to the hinterland of Yan Kingdom."

   "Hanshan Town?" Lin Xiaoyue asked.

   "Yeah. Hanshan Town is the closest town to the border. Both land and water routes are smooth."

   Lin Xiaoyue's eyes brightened.

   "Is it next to the long river?" asked immediately.

   Qingshi Town is right by the long river.

  Li Xiao smiled and shook his head, "Mianjiang." He said.

  Lin Xiaoyue was instantly disappointed.

  Although she didn't know much about the geography of Yan Kingdom, she also knew that the Mianjiang River and the Changhe River were distributed in different regions.

  Li Xiao touched Lin Xiaoyue's head.

   "Although it is not a long river, you can board the ferry at Hanshan Town and take the waterway. It only takes half a day to reach Qingyuan County."

   "Afterwards, twenty miles west of Qingyuan County is Xiangshui Town, and Xiangshui Town is on the edge of the Changhe River."

  Lin Xiaoyue's eyes moved again.

   "After arriving at Xiangshui Town, you can take a boat to Qingshi Town!" said in surprise.

   "It's not that simple." Li Xiao's tone was still heavy.

   "Then what exactly did you plan?" Lin Xiaoyue stopped guessing, and was ready to express her opinion after listening to Li Xiao's plan.

  Li Xiao glanced at the person in his arms, and then continued: "Evacuate at night, and after arriving at Hanshan Town, arrange for the soldiers to retreat in three ways."

   "Three thousand people on the waterway, 1500 on each of the remaining two routes, and evacuated in two different directions, northwest and southeast."

   "As a result, the chasing troops will be dispersed, and the border gates cannot be guarded by heavy troops for a long time, and the chasing troops will most likely give up."

   "After that, people from the northwest and southeast will leave the team on their own in a planned way and hide in the private sector. Just find a way to avoid the government's search."

   "The only difficulty is the 3,000 people who walk by water." Li Xiao said solemnly.

"These 3,000 people have the biggest target and are the easiest to track. And according to the boat route, the government is very likely to guess that the destination of the waterway is in Qingyuan County. In this way, these 3,000 people are very likely to be in Qingyuan. The county is in an ambush."

   Lin Xiaoyue's heart tensed.

   "What then?"

  Li Xiao's eyes moved slightly, "Don't go to Qingyuan County."

   "Huh?" Lin Xiaoyue was stunned.

  Li Xiao hugged Lin Xiaoyue tightly, "These three thousand people will go ashore in Luoyan Town and Fengwei Town respectively above Qingyuan County."

   "Then, as before, hide in the people and escape."

  Lin Xiaoyue's eyes lit up.

   "So, the three thousand people in the waterway are just used to attract the attention of the pursuers?!"

  When it is found that the chasing targets are scattered and fled, and the targets in two directions are more difficult to chase.

   It's her, she will also stare at the one with the biggest target and the best chase!

  Li Xiao nodded.

   "Six thousand people are too many, and the goal is too big. Only in this way can it be broken down into zero."

  Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao, her eyes full of admiration.

   As expected of a general, this brain is really good.

   But soon, Lin Xiaoyue put away the expression on her face again.

   "According to this plan, people have fled the border. But how can we get everyone back together in the future?"

   With so many people running to one place, it's hard not to be noticed.

   "I didn't think about it before, but also to activate the Chiwu Army." Li Xiao said.

   Therefore, evacuation is actually dissolution.

  Lin Xiaoyue was taken aback.

   Thinking of something, his heart warmed, and he put his head on Li Xiao's chest.

   Yes, if she hadn't asked Liang Yu to meet before, Liang Yu wouldn't have found Li Xiao.

   And they may be able to live a peaceful life in Dashi Village.

  Why does Li Xiao need the Chiwu Army again?

  Li Xiao's heart was also warm, and he patted Lin Xiaoyue's back with his big hand.

   "However, since we decided to take revenge next, the plan has to be better arranged."

   "Yes." Lin Xiaoyue replied.
