    In the autumn of the 10th year of Jian'an, on the second day of October, the weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly. The rice on both sides of the Han River was ripe and exuded the fragrance of rice - drifting in the wind and refreshing!

    At dawn, the east turned white, and the people of Xiangyang City walked out of their homes one after another. There were young and strong men, old and weak women and children, all dressed in coarse cloth, holding bags, ropes, poles and gathered near the city gate!

    "Eat and drink enough, and work energetically. How much harvest you can get this time depends on everyone's ability. The diligent ones have enough food and clothing, and the lazy ones deserve the northwest wind!"

    ¡°Each person has one tool, and they must line up and receive it in order. Then Li Zheng and the pavilion chief will lead the way to the designated place. No one is allowed to fight over it!¡±

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Inside the four gates of Xiangyang City, a huge formation was set up. On one side were the "fully armed" fire-headed troops, handing out rice cakes, dried vegetables, and meat soup It tasted salty and greasy. Although it was not a delicacy, it was suitable for heavy work.  People enjoy it, so the people devour it and eat it extremely sweet.

    On the other side are the Mohist disciples, handing out newly made sickles to the well-fed people. There are also large parts next to them, such as saw teeth, blades, levers, rotating shafts I don¡¯t know what they are used for?

    China is a farming nation. As early as the primitive society period, there were various tools such as shovels, rakes, hoes, knives, and sickles. Because the technology was relatively backward, the tools were all made of wood, bone, and stone, which were laborious and laborious to use.  And easy to break!

    Bronze farm tools appeared in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, including adzes, axes, shovels, plows, sickles, and plows In the Qin and Han Dynasties, the iron smelting industry began to rise, and iron farm tools gradually replaced the heavy and heavy bronze farm tools!

    However, the smelting technology in the Han Dynasty was immature and the iron produced was very limited. In addition, the feudal princes fought for hegemony and wars were frequent. Most of the iron was used to make armors and weapons, and very little was used for agriculture, which could not meet the demand at all!

    In desperation, the people could only resort to the next best thing, using "iron blades and wooden heart" farm tools to work hard in the fields. In those remote mountain villages, there are still people who use bronze and wooden farm tools. War is higher than production.  How miserable is mankind!

    The sickles issued to the Mohist disciples are all made of pure iron, and they are full of fire and have excellent blades. Not to mention harvesting rice, they can even cut off human heads!

    The style has also been adjusted. The body of the sickle is like a crescent, the straight blade has been changed into a curved blade, and the rear part has been increased in weight. Coupled with a light wooden handle, it is very easy to use!

    "This old man has been farming all his life and has never used such a convenient farm tool. Who invented this? It is a great kindness to the people of Li!"

    ¡°Luozu raised silkworms, Cangyoshi made characters, Cai Lun made paper Those who can improve farm tools are definitely not ordinary people. Just ask these Mohist students!¡±

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    Before Xiao Yi traveled through time, he grew up in a rural area. Although he did not know how to do farm work (people were too lazy to go to the fields, so he studied hard, but unfortunately he failed), he had seen his parents working hard and knew them.  There are few farm tools!

    In addition to improving the sickle, he also drew a lot of drawings and asked the Mohist disciples to make them, including a rake for breaking the soil, a flail for threshing and a millstone rotating by water power, which was very useful to the people who grew rice.  Say, it is simply a technological revolution!

    Ephesus had no children.  When he was emperor, Wu Minxin, You Jie You Zhi, Zhen Zhen Zai Su.

    After getting ready, under the leadership of Wenpin, the prefect of Xiangyang, the people knelt on the ground, chanted "The Book of Songs - People's Livelihood", praised Houji, the ancestor of farming, and prayed for a bumper harvest and full warehouses!

    Hou Ji was the son of Emperor Ku. He was an extraordinary person with little ambition. He liked to collect wild plant seeds. He also figured out a method of sowing seeds at the right time according to local conditions and taught them to the tribesmen. Therefore, he was revered as the 'ancestor of farming!  ¡¯

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out???

    ¡°Grab the food!¡ªGrab the grain!¡ªGrab the grain!¡±

    With three shouts, the city gates opened wide, and hundreds of thousands of people in Xiangyang City rushed out like a flood, rushing towards the rice fields on both sides of the Han River. Under the command of Li Zheng, pavilion chiefs, and officials at all levels, they divided the city into districts.  Harvest!

    I saw sickles flying, sweat splashing, and rice falling piece by piece, and then tied into pieces.The lumps are neatly stacked on the bullock cart and transported back to Xiangyang City for threshing, shelling, drying, and bagging and finally turn into crystal clear rice!

    Hundreds of thousands of people are working together, so it should be very lively. Adults talk and laugh, children run and jump around, and farmers with good voices will sing a few work chants, which is both entertainment and encouragement!

    The reality is just the opposite. In the rice fields on both sides of the Han River, only busy figures can be seen, but there is no sound. People bite their lips and tense up. It is no longer harvesting rice, but more like grabbing rice!

    Even gray-haired old men and seven- or eight-year-old naughty boys were busy in the fields, doing whatever they could. Some even fell down or fainted from exhaustion. They rested for a while and continued to harvest. No one cried out during this period.  tired!

    Because before leaving the city, Xiao Yi issued an order: "All the rice outside Xiangyang City belongs to the people of Xiangyang. No matter how boldly you harvest it, half of it will be handed over to the public and half for private use. If anyone asks for it by force, they can be driven away with weapons and beaten to death."  He is not guilty!  ¡¯

    In other words, no matter who owns the rice fields on both sides of the Han River, as long as the farmers harvest them, half will be handed over to the army and the other half will be owned by individuals, and the more they work, the more they will get, without any restrictions!

    "If after harvesting the rice, the original landowner comes to ask for it, the people don't have to be afraid. They can beat him out with a stick. No matter how big the trouble is, Xiao Lang with a ghost face will make the decision for you!"

    Although Xiangyang City is prosperous, most of the people are poor. They have also suffered from wars and are almost starved of food. Now there are thousands of hectares of rice fields in front of us for people to harvest at will. Why don't they just enjoy the flowers and work hard?

    Therefore, people are very motivated and refuse to rest for a moment. According to this speed of harvesting, it is estimated that it will take three or four days to finish harvesting thousands of hectares of rice!

    The problem is that the common people are happy, but the nobles are crying. They are the landowners. Cutting off the rice fields outside the city is tantamount to cutting their heart. But the order was given by the Grand Sima. Who dares to oppose it?  Woolen cloth?

    So, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Kuai Tong, representing the gentry clan in Xiangyang, secretly asked to see Xiao Yi, hoping that Da Sima would take back his life and not harm the interests of the clan clan, or lose less!

    Of course, facing the murderous power of Ghost Face Xiao Lang, they did not dare to speak out against it. Instead, they knelt at the door of the tent, stamped their feet, beat their chests, and began to cry loudly, saying that all the food was gone and the whole family had no way to survive!

    "Don't underestimate the performance of the three people. This is the will of the noble clan in Xiangyang City. If it is not handled properly, it may cause a big turmoil. If you don't give others a way to survive, others will also cut off yours!"

    No one knows how Xiao Yi dealt with it. He summoned the three of them into the tent and whispered for more than an hour. When Cai Hao, Zhang Yun, and Kuai Tong came out, his attitude changed drastically!

    Not only did they not stop the people from grabbing food, they also persuaded a group of noble clansmen to send out their clansmen, servants, and servants to harvest the food together, and then donate it all to the army, leaving not a grain for themselves!

    The three major families of Cai, Zhang, and Kuai were the leaders of the Jingzhou gentry. They all cooperated so well. Who dared to stab others? They all obeyed orders and even brought out all the mules, horses, and vehicles at home to help.  They are transporting food together, so the harvest speed is faster!

    Someone asked afterward, but Xiao Yi smiled and didn't answer. He just took out a copper coin and threw it around. The noble clans were the most greedy. Only more and greater benefits can make them cooperate obediently!

    "Boom!¡ª¡ªBoom! Boom!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    While the people were working hard to grab food, Xiao Yi led the Xuanjia Army, the Feng camp, the Danyang soldiers, the Jingzhou soldiers a total of 100,000 troops, formed military formations, and rushed to the Jiangdong camp!

    The Jiangdong Army was stationed in the lower reaches of the Han River, posing a great threat to Xiangyang City, and even more eyeing the rice fields on both sides of the river. If he wanted to let the people harvest with confidence, Xiao Yi could only take the initiative and attack the Jiangdong Army camp, leaving them no time to worry about him.  !

    ??Every veteran on the battlefield knows that in order to win a tough battle, one must have at least three times more troops. Now that the two armies are evenly matched, the one taking the initiative to attack will inevitably suffer a loss, but Xiao Yi has another plan:

    First, this proactive attack is not to eliminate the Jiangdong Army, but to contain the Jiangdong Army. It only takes three or four days, so there is no need to fight to the death, and the tactics are much more flexible!

    Secondly, the Jiangdong Army has just changed its camp, and the barriers and trenches have not been repaired yet. The defense is weak at this time. Because of the Yin soldiers taking advantage of the way, people's hearts are also panicked, and their combat effectiveness has plummeted!

    Therefore, Xiao Yi repeatedly calculated that he had taken advantage of the favorable location and people, and had a seven-point chance of winning this battle. As for the remaining three points, who would God's will belong to?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
