Western Hills.
Zhu Di was looking at the potatoes happily.
It’s not easy!
It’s not easy!
The potato finally grew!
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu were beside them, as well as Jin Zhong, Dao Yan and others.
Su Yang listened to Chu Xiong's report and gave some advice from time to time.
Compared to his half-full bucket of water, Chu Xiong's five hundred Forbidden Army soldiers are now expert farmers in growing potatoes.
After all, everyone is rooted in this greenhouse every day, and even meals are delivered by dedicated personnel, who record the growth data and conditions of potatoes at any time. It is simply not too professional.
After the last harvest, the potato grain problem was solved immediately. During this period, Chu Xiong and five hundred Forbidden Army soldiers also completed the task of selecting grain seeds. The next step is to plant these potato grain seeds and wait until The next round is harvested.
This is the benefit of a greenhouse.
The temperature inside can be maintained in a constant range, which is the most conducive range for the growth and maturity of potatoes. It is not like the outside world that is restricted by the alternation of spring, summer, autumn and winter.
"You guys did a great job!"
"The next task is to plant potatoes all over the Western Mountains!"
Chu Xiong nodded, his face full of joy.
After all, His Royal Highness King Yan summoned them privately yesterday, affirmed their outstanding achievements, gave them all the rewards they deserved, and also promised to become marquises and generals in the future!
Isn't this the military glory they have always longed for?
There is no need to fight life and death on the battlefield, you only need to cultivate potatoes here with peace of mind, and then you can become a prince and a general. What better job could there be than this?
Therefore, Chu Xiong and the other five hundred Forbidden Army soldiers now admire and respect Su Yang very much, and they no longer have any dissatisfaction in their hearts.
And after the last harvest, they also saw with their own eyes the terrifying yield of potatoes!
If potatoes can be promoted all over the world in the future, then people like them can be regarded as benefiting the people of the world. This is a good thing to accumulate evil deeds!
Zhu Di looked at it happily for a long time, then reluctantly got up.
"Su Yang, my virtuous son-in-law, these potatoes are grown all over the Western Mountains, can they really support our army's food supply?"
Zhu Di patted the dirt on his hands and asked the question he was most concerned about.
As the territory became larger and larger, and there were more and more soldiers and horses, the problem of food and grass became a stone weighing on Zhu Di's heart.
There is no way, the grain output in northern Xinjiang is too low. With the current output in Yandi, it is impossible to support such a large army!
Before Zhu Di raised his troops to quell the crisis, the imperial court secretly blocked the supply of grain and grass to Beiping Mansion, forcing Zhu Di to turn around and trade with the barbarians on the grassland in exchange for grain.
Now that Zhu Di has openly raised troops to appease the enemy, it doesn't take much to think about it. The imperial court will definitely cut off the food channels to Yandi.
And those grassland barbarians are not good people. Putting hope on them is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, and you may be bitten one day.
Therefore, Zhu Di attaches great importance to this potato and wishes it could be put into mass production now.
Su Yang nodded.
"The boundary of Xishan is actually not that small."
"There are several hills connected from east to west!"
"Calculating the area available for cultivation and adding greenhouses, the output is enough."
In fact, Su Yang wanted to directly promote potatoes and plant them all over the Yan land first.
But the problem is that the Battle of Jingnan has entered the second stage, and Li Jinglong will soon come with an army of 500,000!
By that time, let alone plowing the fields, the people would not even be able to save their lives under the influence of the war, so naturally they would not be able to grow potatoes in peace and contentment.
Therefore, it is meaningless to promote potatoes now. We must wait until the second phase of the Jingnan Campaign is over.
After all, in Su Yang's memory, Li Jinglong once killed himself at the gates of Beiping City, and almost took over the lair of King Yan Zhu Di!
Su Yang said so, so Zhu Di naturally stopped forcing it.
He now has absolute trust in Su Yang, and Su Yang's status in Zhu Di's heart has even surpassed that of monk Dao Yan.
There was no other way, Su Yang was banishing an immortal, and casually sacrificed the divine weapon of Sheji.
"Thank you for your hard work, good son-in-law!"
"This is a great achievement, Prince Yan's Mansion will definitely reward you based on your merits in the future!"
Zhu Di didn't know what to reward Su Yang, so he could only give him a slap in the face.
After all, he is an immortal, and he always looks down on gold, silver, and jewels that smell like gold!
And if you really rewarded Su Yang with gold, silver and jewels, with his demeaning temperament, he would think you were humiliating him!
But if you don’t reward these, what else can you reward?
Is it possible to reward him with another daughter?
This makes Zhu Di a little embarrassed!
Su Yang waved his hand impatiently.
"Okay, everyone gets what they need!"
He never admitted that he was a subordinate of King Yan Zhu Di!
That stupid King of Yan, Zhu Di, didn't even allow him to eat, but Su Yang always remembered it in his heart!
After looking at the potatoes, Zhu Di looked at the military camp again.
The surrendered troops sent from all over the country were now being transformed honestly.
Xu Zhong and the other thousand instructors were becoming more and more proficient, and they had already started to transform according to the process without Su Yang appearing.
This is the benefit of having subordinates, you don’t have to do everything yourself.
"Xian son-in-law, there will be an army of 100,000 next!"
"Do you think this Xishan can be maintained?"
Su Yang was stunned when he heard this, and then roared: "One hundred thousand troops? Do you really think of me as the logistics minister?"
"Besides, the Xishan Military Camp can accommodate up to 50,000 soldiers. Your 100,000 troops must be sent over in batches!"
That's an army of 100,000!
If one thing is not handled well and the camp is mutinied and bombed, then Xishan will be doomed!
Zhu Di naturally understood this truth, so he didn't dare to refute at all when being criticized.
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu didn't know what to say when they saw this scene.
This is their biological father!
This is your father-in-law Su Yang!
Is it really okay for you to educate him in public like this?
At this moment, a secret guard suddenly rushed over and whispered a few words to Daoyan.
After hearing this, Monk Daoyan's expression changed slightly, and he stepped forward to report: "Your Majesty, in case of emergency, Li Jinglong has led an army of 500,000 to go on an expedition, and Zhu Yunwen is personally practicing it in Longjiang!"
After hearing the news, everyone's expressions changed slightly!
What is supposed to come has come!
The imperial court's 500,000 elite troops set out for battle!
The Battle of Jingnan has also entered its second stage!
Zhu Di's expression changed slightly, and then he glanced at the expressionless Su Yang, and secretly made a plan in his heart.
Do you want to bring Su Yang together to discuss the matter and listen to his opinion?
But in this case, the identity can no longer be hidden!
If Su Yang knew that he was King Zhu Di of Yan, could their relationship as son-in-law continue?
"Xian son-in-law, do you think there is a possibility that being a father is not easy?"
Su Yang was stunned when he heard this, and then glanced at him contemptuously.
"Why, father-in-law, have you been upgraded from general to housekeeper?"
Zhu Di: "???"
What?
housekeeper?
I am so heroic as a butler?
Bah, you're banishing an immortal, that's nothing!
