Farming Beneath the Changbai Mountains

In a blink of an eye, it is spring, and everything is revived. In April, the weather in the north has become much warmer. Farmers are working hard in the fields, and cattle and sheep are eating grass comfortably on the grassland.

The war between Da Qi and Bei Yuan has been going on for four months. Since Mingyu and Yunfei led troops to rescue and defeated the Bei Yuan army, Da Qi's army has been chasing Bei Yuan's army. Now the Bei Yuan army has been driven back to their country, and Da Qi has also captured many places in Bei Yuan.

Ziwen and Wenxuan have always been with Mingyu and Yunfei. After these few months of experience, the two people's ability to lead troops to fight has improved by leaps and bounds, which is amazing. Even Yunfei said that these two people are like natural generals.

Now that the foreign enemies have been driven away, Zixuan will lead the people from all over the country to do spring ploughing together. Whether there is a war or not, we must ensure that we have enough food to eat, so farmers everywhere actively started spring ploughing and planting.

The war between the two countries is still going on, but it is already eight or nine hundred miles away from Xizhou. Such a distance is enough to ensure the safety of Xizhou, so everyone's face showed a long-lost smile. Those old farmers, when bending over to plant the land, occasionally looked up, and the deep wrinkles on their faces were full of hopeful smiles. "The rainfall is good this year. You can see that it has rained several times in the early spring. If there is no drought in the early spring, the crops in the fields will grow better. In the fall, we can also harvest more food."

The people around also laughed and agreed, "Yes, God still loves us. He can't always let us suffer, right? We farmers are looking forward to good weather and good harvests, right? Speaking of which, it is also our luck. If the Northern Yuan Kingdom has not been driven away, let alone farming, we don't know what will happen at this time. Whether we can save our lives is another matter." Some people sighed.

"It's still our Lord Lin who is amazing. He led us and resisted the 200,000-strong army of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. Just thinking about it makes me feel excited." A young man over there said proudly.

During the spring plowing season, these young and strong laborers naturally did not follow the army to fight, but returned home to farm. They were not formal soldiers, and Zixuan could not bear to let all of them go to the front line to fight, leaving only the old, weak, women and children at home to farm. Besides, Xizhou City also needed to be garrisoned. So he left the young and strong behind, some of them to garrison the city, and the other part to go back to farm. After the spring plowing was over, these people still had to garrison in the city.

"You kid, you are so proud of just fighting for a few days. Then after the farming is over, you might as well follow the army to attack Beiyuan." The father of the young man next to him laughed and rebuked.

The young man scratched his head, and then said, "Forget it, on this battlefield, everyone is fighting with their heads raised. I still want to marry a wife and have a son, so I'd better not go."

After saying this, everyone laughed. "It's right to marry a wife and have a son, but if Beiyuan attacks again, we still have to do our part. This is our home, the home where we have grown up for generations, but we don't allow those Tartars from Beiyuan to destroy it." The young man's father said.

"Remember, we are from Daqi. The court of Daqi treats us a hundred times better than the previous Northern Yuan. Lord Lin not only made us rich, but also set up a school so that children can study without spending money. Our children will have a promising future. These are great favors. As a human being, you can't be ungrateful, otherwise you will be worse than animals." These words directly resonated with many people around, and many people talked about it.

Jinghan was standing not far from these people, wearing a coarse cloth and a floral scarf on her head. She brought people to work in the farm outside the city. In such a good time, she always stayed in the city. Wouldn't it be boring? Qingning was taken away by Xingjia a few days ago. Although Jinghan was a little reluctant, she thought that the border was not stable now. If the war had a recurrence, Xizhou would still be very dangerous, so she could only bear the pain and let them take the child away. Fortunately, Qingning can already eat some rice paste and other things, and she doesn't need to drink milk.

Listening to the words of these farmers, Jinghan was also very happy, not because of their praise for Zixuan, but because of the sense of belonging in these people's hearts. These people originally belonged to the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but now, they can classify themselves as the people of Daqi, which is the greatest achievement. It is not difficult to change the economic situation of a region, but it is a bit difficult to change people's ideology and make them feel a sense of belonging to the court. Fortunately, the efforts of the couple were not in vain, and these people have already recognized the court from the heart.

"Madam, let's go." Chuncao said in a low voice.

Jinghan nodded and continued to move forward with the people.

After more than ten days of spring plowing, Jinghan's originally fair face was tanned again. Jinghan didn't care, anyway, she could recover in winter. After all the land in the farm was planted, Jinghan took people back to the city.

When Zixuan saw Jinghan, he couldn't help but grumble at her again, "Look at you, you're tanned again, right? You really don't know how to take care of yourself."

Jinghan smiled and didn't refute. "How's the war going on in the front? Are Mingyu and the others all okay?"

"Mingyu and the others have forced Beiyuan's army to a place called Yelangpo. It seems that this time it is going to be a decisive battle. Beiyuan has increased its troops again, and the number has reached 300,000. Our troops here, There are about 2.78 million. This time, it seems that the two sides are going to have a showdown. Mingyu and Yunfei are really extraordinary. They are also capable and have used tricks several times. How many Beiyuan soldiers do you know?" Zixuan had just returned to Xizhou after delivering food and grass to the army.

"That General Mo, didn't Mingyu use him?" For some reason, Jinghan always looked at that Mo Hongfan with displeasure.

"Well, he has always been responsible for preparing food and supplies. Of course, he is not transporting food and grass from us, but from Hanzhou. Before I came back, I met him. It seems that he had just escorted the food and grass there, right?" Xuan didn't like this person either.

"I always feel like there's something wrong with this person named Mo, but I can't tell exactly what's wrong." Jinghan said a little confused.

"Don't think about that. Now all the people under him are under Mingyu's jurisdiction. He can't do any tricks." Zixuan didn't care, "I'm hungry, madam, let's get some food to eat." ”

Jinghan quickly asked someone to prepare the food, and the couple went to eat talking and laughing.

On April 29, Daqi's army set up an ambush in Yelang Valley, twenty miles away from Yelangpo, and burned Beiyuan's 200,000 troops. This time, Beiyuan suffered heavy losses.

On the fourth day of May, a troop of about 50,000 people came from outside Xizhou City. The leader was Mo Hongfan. Saying that the army was victorious, Mingyu led his troops to continue chasing Prince Qige of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and asked Mo Hongfan to lead his troops back to Xizhou to garrison in case the rebel army of the Northern Yuan Dynasty played another trick.

After hearing the news, Zixuan always felt a little awkward, but he couldn't explain why. So Jinghan was called in, and the couple discussed it.

"I also feel something is wrong. If the army comes back victorious, it should be Mingyu who comes back, and Yunfei and the others should pursue Qige. Even if this is not the case, there should be Ziwen or Wenxuan leading the army. How could it be this Mo Hongfan? "In this case, let's not let the army enter the city, let them station outside the city, and then send people to Mingyu to find out." Jinghan thought for a while and then said. "In this way, the army will be stationed outside the city. I'll have someone prepare some delicious food in the afternoon. You can take someone to deliver it as a reward to the three armies. Then we'll see if we can find out anything."

Zixuan nodded, "That's fine. We have to be more careful now. If we misunderstand someone, we'll just have to apologize later."

So Zixuan sent people out of the city to negotiate with Mo Hongfan to prevent the army from entering the city. Mo Hongfan had no choice but to lead his men to station outside the city.

At dusk, Zixuan took the people from the state government and some young men in the city and brought out a lot of delicious food and fine wine. Jinghan dressed up as a man and secretly followed the team. She wanted to find out the details of the team.

When everyone came to the military camp, Mo Hongfan was very happy when he saw all these things and hurriedly distributed them. Jinghan mingled among these people and helped deliver things.

"Lord Lao Lin, the 50,000-strong army will cost a lot of money. It will cost Lord Lin a lot of money." Mo Hongfan was very happy. You know, there is a lot of meat delivered today. It looked like at least a hundred pigs had to be killed. In addition, there were mutton, beef, etc., and even a dozen roasted and fragrant whole sheep were delivered. Of course, these were given to these generals to enjoy.

"General, you have worked hard all the way. It is a blessing for the imperial court to return victoriously. I should naturally reward the army." Zixuan smiled and spoke while looking at the camp carefully from the corner of his eyes.

"Master Lin, please join us. Let's all drink and celebrate together." Mo Hongfan happily invited Zixuan.

"Okay, then I will have something to eat with General Mo. The victory of this army will be a great thing for everyone to celebrate." Zixuan naturally agreed happily.

So everyone set up a banquet in the Chinese army's tent. Mo Hongfan brought several generals, and Zixuan also brought two state magistrates. They all chatted together, drinking and eating, and the conversation was quite interesting.

"Come on, General Mo, try this roasted lamb. This is roasted by my wife herself. Even the women on the grassland can't match her skill." Zixuan enthusiastically let everyone eat the roasted lamb.
