Farmer of Shu Han

"Feng Guanshi, no, it's my sister-in-law's belly that finally wins."

Although it was inappropriate to talk about his elder brother's Xijun behind his back, this matter had a lot to do with everyone, so Deng Liang didn't pay that much attention.

Anyway, Xu Xun couldn't say it.

Xu Xun nodded, "Brother is really picky about women."

The main room is pregnant with a child, and the concubine's room continues to work hard, and it is the right time. It's a pity that the elder brother's eyes are too picky, and the sister-in-law is too fierce, what can I do, what can I do?

As he spoke, he took off his down jacket.

It was really hot in the room, and after sitting for a while, my body started to sweat.

After taking off his coat, he took the water glass on the table again and drank it dry in one gulp.

Deng Liang nodded at the side, and said in agreement, "Yuan De's words are very true. Otherwise, depending on the brothers of our Xinghan Society, you can help find what kind of girl your brother wants."

It's a pity that everyone has been following my brother for so long, and they don't even seem to know what his taste is.

Speaking of this topic, Xu Xun couldn't help thinking of the second mother who was sent to Nanxiang a few years ago.

He sighed even more in his heart, at first he thought his elder brother was a good one, but he didn't expect Er Niang to be put into the field to grow vegetables.

It's really disappointing!

Even if you can't be your brother's concubine, it's not bad to be a concubine.

Look at Miss Mu...

Thinking of Mrs. Mu, Xu Xun suddenly woke up from his dream.

"By the way, Wei Zhe, before leaving, Mrs. Mu told me one thing."

"What is it?"

"Ms. Mu said that my brother has opened up the relationship with the prime minister. This year, we can freely brew wine in Nanzhong."

"Great!" Deng Liang couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard two happy events in succession, "Sure enough, brother has a solution!"

"However, brother also said that at least half of the brewed wine will be turned into spirits, and all will be sent to Longyou."

After hearing this request, Deng Liang felt a little strange, "Why do you want so much spirits, brother?"

The initially brewed sugarcane wine, oh, has now been officially named honey wine by the sister-in-law. Compared with the previous turbid wine, it is many times better.

The aroma of the wine is strong, the taste is soft, and the taste is mellow, which makes people unable to release the cup.

After drinking honey wine, drinking those turbid wines feels like drinking vinegar, who can swallow it?

As the person in charge of Jincheng, the general transfer station, Deng Liang naturally knew that the cane wine produced in Nanzhong included a kind of spirits besides honey wine.

After drinking this kind of strong wine, from the throat to the stomach, it was like a fire burning all the way, but he didn't like to drink it.

Not only does he not like it, most people don't like it either.

"Could it be that brother Cheng likes to drink strong alcohol?"

Xu Xun is also guessing the same question.

Deng Liang nodded, "It's possible. I heard from Zhao Erlang that when my brother went to Nanzhong, he brewed three jars of spirits and brought them with him to Nanzhong. Presumably, my brother has a fondness for spirits."

"Besides, most of the soldiers in the army are rough people. Giving them strong alcohol will make them more courageous."

Xu Xun nodded when he heard the words, agreed with Deng Liang's words, and then sighed again, "It's a pity that this wine can't be sold after brewing, and can only be kept for oneself to drink."

"Otherwise, just because you don't need grain to make wine, you don't know how much grain you can earn."

"That's enough." Deng Liang shook his head and said, "With the sugar cane garden in Nanzhong, we can't make much wine."

He sits in Jincheng and dispatches various places, and he knows the situation in Nanzhong better than Xu Xun.

"What's more, because of the Northern Expedition, everyone is fully supporting the front. Nanzhong has not opened a new garden at all this year."

"Brother needs to brew half of the spirits again. I'm afraid the remaining honey wine is enough for everyone to share. How can there be any extra to sell?"

"After staying for two years, the sugarcane garden in Nanzhong will be almost open. At that time, we will ask my brother to see if we can find a way to let the imperial court lift the prohibition on alcohol."

When Deng Liang talked about "getting the court to let go of the prohibition on alcohol", he understated it, as if it was a very simple matter.

Xu Xun actually agreed, nodded and said, "That's the only way."

The source of their confidence in saying this is naturally their elder brother.

Now that the prime minister can agree to let them make wine, isn't that proof?

As long as Xinghan will show enough sincerity, as long as the big man has enough food, he is still somewhat sure.

However, although the sugarcane garden in Nanzhong was planned long ago.

But in the past few years, he first supported his elder brother Ping Yuexuan, then opened the racecourse, and then went to the Northern Expedition.

If it weren't for the fact that the newly reclaimed fields in Hanzhong have stabilized grain production, everyone might not be able to produce so much grain.

The sugarcane gardens in Nanzhong were also affected, and the speed of reclamation was much slower.

It's just that brown sugar is already huge profits, the output is small, and the price is expensive, so everyone is not in a hurry.

As for selling wine, Xu Xun just thought about it, but didn't really say that he must violate this taboo. Now the income at hand is only a lot more than before.

As long as my brother doesn't fall down, and wait until the day when the production of honey wine is sufficient, and want to sell it, isn't that a simple matter?

But he thought of something else.

"The harvested sugar cane also has shares from those aristocratic families. We use bagasse to make wine. If they know about it and want to share, what should we do?"

Deng Liang smiled confidently, "Yuan De is wrong, we don't have the ability to brew wine from bagasse. We obviously brew it from sugar cane, this must be remembered, remember."

When Xu Xun heard Deng Liang's words, he first looked at Deng Liang in surprise, and when he saw the inscrutable smile on his face, he suddenly woke up.

There was a sudden look on his face, and he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, I misremembered."

After thinking about it for a while, he said again, "The share of brown sugar we gave them was not less than a penny, enough for us to use our own sugar cane to make wine, but not their sugar cane."

Deng Liang said, "So if those aristocratic families want to get the peerless wine from us, they can only reduce the quota of brown sugar. How to choose, I think they will be very embarrassed, right?"

After saying this, the two looked at each other and smiled, very much like love... Oh, no, basic love.

Jincheng sat idle, talking and laughing happily.

The city of Linjing was broken, and blood flowed across the oars.

The prefecture of Anding County is Linjing City, and the city gate is wide open.

The army of Wei suddenly approached the city, and the rebellious army who occupied the city for themselves failed to last even a day, and the city's surname Hu had already quietly sent someone to open the city gate.

Wei Jun rushed in and began to slaughter the city.

Xia Houba led the trilogy and walked on the streets of the city, watching every house close the city gates, and then was directly smashed by Wei Jun, and rushed in.

First there was a cry for help, and then another scream.

He frowned slightly, and tried not to look at what was going on inside as he passed the door.

This is the first time that Wei has quelled the chaos in Anding County after the defeat in Longyou.

Massacre the city as a warning to those who follow suit, this is the rule set by the general.

Even if Xia Houba, who was leading the army for the first time, was not used to this kind of practice, he was not qualified to say anything.

At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind, "General Xiahou!"

Xia Houba turned around, only to see Hu Zunzheng trotting over in a hurry, with an anxious expression on his face.

"General Xiahou, the army has been slaughtering the city for half a day, why don't you go find the general and let the soldiers stop here?"

Xia Houba nodded, "I also have the same intention."

Cao Zhen listened to the request of the two, but refused, "It is a military order to massacre the city for one day, and it cannot be changed without reason."

Then he looked at Hu Zun again, "General Hu, I know that the Hu family's foundation is in Linjing, and I have made great achievements in opening the city gate, so I have ordered the army not to hurt the Hu family members, so you can rest assured."

But it's not just the surname Hu who has a relationship with the Hu family in Linjing.

Hu Zun opened his mouth and finally sighed.

Obviously, the General did this on purpose.

There was great chaos in Anding County, and Linjing City was occupied by the rebels. Hu Zun would not believe that there were no traces of some wealthy families in it.

The Hu family in Linjing can also be regarded as a famous surname in Anding County. Hu Zun, who was born in the Hu family in Linjing, naturally knows the urine of the local wealthy families.

An Ding knew that the Shu people had invaded Longyou, and there were rebellious troops in many places, saying that they all responded to the Shu people sincerely, but Hu Zun was sure that this was impossible.

The so-called turmoil is nothing more than a trick of the local wealthy family, who want to prepare for betting.

Obviously, Linjing, as the prefecture of Anding County, has many wealthy families.

The general wanted to kill a hundred people, not only to take the opportunity to cleanse the Linjing nobles, but also to deter the rebellious army and the people behind the rebellious army in Anding County.

On the other hand, Xia Houba, whose status is not as sensitive as Hu Zun, can say something, "General, Linjing is also the governor of Anding County, if the killing is too much, I'm afraid it will be difficult to govern in the future."

"Zhong Quan has a benevolent heart." Cao Zhen was kind to Xia Houba.

Although Xiahouba was leading the army for the first time in this battle, he was fearless in the face of swords and spears, and he was brave. It seemed that the Xiahou family was about to produce another general.

I only heard Xia Houba suggest, "General, why are the people in the city so innocent? Instead of killing people indiscriminately, let the army pick out those who supported the rebellious army in the city and punish them severely."

"In this way, we can not only achieve the purpose of serious Wei's decree, but also deter those who have evil intentions."

Cao Zhen followed Cao Cao for decades, and Cao Cao had a great influence on him, so he didn't think it was inappropriate to massacre the rebels.

Especially in the second year of Huangchu, Zhiyuanduo, Lu Shui, Fengshang and other Hu allied forces formed a rebellion in Hexi. Cao Zhen, the general of Zhenxi at that time, led the generals to attack the allied forces of Hu and Hu, and won a complete victory.

At that time, there were more than 50,000 levels of beheading alone.

At the same time, 100,000 livestock, 1.11 million sheep, and 80,000 cattle were obtained.

Where did these animals come from? Where did the tribes that lost their livestock go? The answer is self-evident.

However, Hu Zun, the representative of the Hu family in Linjing, opened his mouth. In addition, it has been half a day since the massacre of the city. Now that he heard Xia Houba put forward this proposal, Cao Zhen thought about it.

Then he nodded, "Forget it, General Hu, you are from the Hu family in Linjing, and you must have a way to catch the criminals in the city. How about leaving this matter to you?"

Hu Zun was overjoyed and said hastily, "The last general takes orders!"

After this incident, it seems that the Hu family in Linjing is the dominant surname, and it seems to be a foregone conclusion!

After Hu Zun went out, Cao Zhen said aggressively to Xiahou, "Although we have resettled Linjing, Xiaoguan in the northwest and Yuezhi City in the northeast are all in the hands of Shu captives."

"Especially in Yuezhi City this month, Yang Tiao, a man from Anding County, threatened the nearby officials to guard him and responded to the Shu captives. It is really abhorrent, and it is not enough to deter Xiao Xiao."

"Now that the cold winter is coming, I have already sent people to find out that most of the Shu people stationed at Xiaoguan are from Shu, and they are not willing to accept the severe cold in the north."

"As for the soldiers we brought this time, half are from Bingyou Prefecture, and half are from Guanzhong."

"Compared to the Shu captives, we have been prepared for a long time. When we operate in winter, the soldiers in the army are much better than them."

"This time, we should take advantage of the fact that the Shu captives at Xiaoguan don't know that Linjing City has been pacified, and quickly send a surprise army to Yuezhi City."

"The mobs of the Yuezhi, caught off guard, will definitely not have the intention to defend the city, and the Yuezhi will be destroyed in one blow."

"I want to send you as the vanguard, lead three thousand elite riders, and go to Yuezhi City immediately, and I will lead the army to follow, how about it?"

When Xia Houba heard that he was asked to lead the army first, he was overjoyed at first, and then said with some concern, "The general has the duty to guard the Guanzhong, and now he is personally leading the army to pacify Linjing, which is already a light departure from Chang'an."

"Fortunately, Linjing can go down the Jing River and reach Chang'an directly. But Yuezhi City is far away from the Jing River. What if there are police in the pass?"

Cao Zhen waved his hand, "It's okay, the general of Fuguo, Xian Yufu, led tens of thousands of people to guard the rear, and Chencang and Qianxian counties both have heavy troops."

"More importantly, the Shu captives certainly never thought that we would send troops in winter. When the news reaches Hanzhong, An Ding has already been pacified, so why worry?"

"Furthermore, the Shu captives and soldiers all came from the land of Shu, and when they got the land of Longyou, they suddenly couldn't get used to the severe cold. Even if they wanted to send troops, they could only do nothing."

Cao Zhen has been planning this matter for a long time, how could he not consider these things?

When Xiahouba heard this, he quickly cupped his fists and said, "The general sees it clearly, the last general is worrying too much."

On the second day, Xiahouba led three thousand fine riders, braved the cold wind, and swept towards Yuezhi City.
