Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

There are also weak and disabled people, who may be a burden when fleeing, but An Ran is asking them to help out and escort the food back. She will recruit people to transport food, and they can just watch over it. They can still help with this small amount of work. Yes, so I naturally agreed.

Mainly because An Ran told them that although there was a natural danger on the Yongjiang River, the enemy was on the other side. They still had to take some precautions in Lijia Village (where they were staying temporarily). After all, they had to store enough food and set up at the entrance of the village. Even if you don't guard against the rebel army, you must guard against nearby bandits coming to plunder. (It's a good thing that the rebels here didn't come. It's a good thing that there's no war, but at the same time, there's no one to wipe out the bandits, so bandits sometimes appear.), so as not to Finally, they found a place to stay. Every once in a while, people came to grab things. They always had nothing to eat or drink, and they couldn't survive. She brought them out because she wanted to save their lives as much as possible. They couldn't die the same way. , then there is no point in bringing them here.

They also think this is the case. Anyway, they were robbed of all their food and money by the bandit army. If it weren't for An Ran, they would have been dead at that time. Now that An Ran spent money to bring them, number 50, out of death, even if they were dead, To repay her kindness, they had to listen to her, not to mention her analysis was correct, so they naturally followed An Ran to do things.

An Ran took a few people to go south to a large grain-producing mansion about a hundred miles away. She had already inquired about it and found that the price of food there was pretty good. So An Ran took advantage of the fact that the price of food was still good and prepared to stock up on more. food.

The world is about to be in chaos. It can be compared to the end of the world. What is the most important thing in the end of the world is to store various supplies, so An Ran naturally buys some food to save before the war is everywhere.

A young man named Zhang Tiezhu who was traveling with him was speechless when he saw An Ran take out a thousand taels of silver notes and buy a thousand shi of grain as soon as An Ran made a move. You know, he had never seen so much money in his life. He thought that he would be cured. The benefactor of my illness is really rich.

An Ran explained: "I treated those wealthy families, and the medical fees were high, so I saved some money."

In fact, of course not, all her money for the time being comes from the generous "donations" of the rich and unkind wealthy people. However, after the Yi Zhuang stabilizes, she will indeed make more money to stock up on food by treating diseases of the wealthy families.

Zhang Tiezhu couldn't help but nod when he thought of An Ran's miraculous medical skills - with such medical skills, it would be easy to make money.

At that moment, An Ran, Zhang Tiezhu and others returned to Lijiacun with the thousand stones of grain. Fortunately, they did not encounter any bandits on the way. Of course, they might have encountered bandits, but the bandits saw that they were outnumbered, so it was possible that they did not dare to show up. , you know, as far as An Ran knows, there are no large bandit villages nearby, only some small groups of bandits. As long as it is not a large bandit village with hundreds or thousands of people, small groups of bandits will not dare to raise their hands when they see dozens of people passing by. .

Seeing that a thousand stones of grain had been put into the warehouse, An Ran felt reassured.

In this era, one stone of grain weighs about one hundred and twenty kilograms. If one thousand stone of grain is used sparingly, it can probably last one thousand people for about one hundred days. However, this is obviously not enough, so Enron will continue to store supplies.

At this time, An Ran especially missed the little secret realm in the cultivation mission. If there was such a thing, she could go to places with lower food prices and buy a large amount of food to store in it without anyone escorting it. She could carry it by herself. Come to this place, rent a warehouse, put things in it, take them out when needed, and say that you prepared them before. How great. It’s not like now without a storage ring, and you have to worry about getting some food when you come back. People are thinking about it.

But before that happens, Enron will make money.

Fortunately, based on the original memory and her observations on the other side, the rebels should not be able to cross the river within a few months. Without him, since Zhang Wentian would send his men to each village to collect food on the spot, what does this mean? It means that Zhang Wentian has a food problem. If he can't solve this problem for a while, he will not try to cross the river. After all, if he crosses the river and fails to attack the neighboring mansion for a while (An Ran feels that the opponent should be in the narrow area upstream of Yunyang Mansion). It’s not practical to cross the river in such a wide and dangerous place in our country), so how can they hold on?

Don't cross the river. An Ran felt that if Zhang Wentian didn't solve the food problem, it would be questionable whether he could attack Dingxi Mansion after she left. After all, she had heard that in order to contain the rebel army, the imperial court invested in Dingxi Mansion. A large number of troops and famous generals were sent to respond to the enemy.

She eavesdropped in the Yunyang Mansion several times. Both the prefect and the garrison felt that the famous generals of the imperial court might not be able to defeat the cavalry aliens in the north, but could they still be unable to defeat their own people who had no cavalry at all?

An Ran didn't know how capable Zhang Wentian was, whether he could defeat that famous general, but she knew that before the three armies moved, food and grass would go first. If Zhang Wentian's food and grass were at the bottom, unless he was very powerful and defeated Dingxi Mansion, go to We need to find food in the mansion, otherwise, let alone crossing the river, we probably won’t even be able to reach Dingxi mansion. We can only go back to the base camp to recuperate, and then make plans after the summer harvest and food.

After having such speculation, An Ran led people to arrange the entrance of Lijia Village while spreading the reputation of the miracle doctor.

There was a reason why An Ran chose Yunyang Mansion, a small village on the outskirts of the city close to the river, to settle down. The main reason was that the village had a good terrain and was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Since the river in Yunyang Prefecture is steep, the terrain near the river naturally becomes steeper. And this Lijia Village is like this, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only one entrance to the village, and it is the only wide place.

Therefore, as long as this place is well managed, once someone comes to attack, only a small number of troops will be sent to patrol the area surrounded by mountains on three sides. Most of the troops can be placed at the entrance of the village to snipe the enemy. In this way, her troops will not count when the time comes. Very little. As long as there is enough food, the enemy can't do anything to her for a while, so choosing this place to stay is very cost-effective, which is why An Ran chose this place.

"Let's set up the pass here." An Ran took Zhang Tiezhu and others to a place some distance away from Lijia Village, which should actually be considered another village, and said.

The entrance of Lijia Village is flat and open, not a good place to set up a pass. Fortunately, there is a narrow place not far from Lijia Village. It is said to be the junction of the two villages. Strictly speaking, it is within the scope of the neighboring village, but the neighboring village The people have almost run away, so they want to set up checkpoints here. Unlike usual, some people will jump out to object, saying that this is their village, why can people from Lijia Village come here to do things?

"The front is narrow, making it easy to set up checkpoints and attacks; the back is wide, and if there are enemies looking for trouble in the future, we can place weapons or our rotating escorts there, which is very convenient." An Ran said.

As for how to set up checkpoints, An Ran had spent time in the military during that apocalyptic mission, so he naturally knew something about these.
