Chapter 127

Now, it was finally time for the harvest!

"Hmm, good, with this batch of rice, I can move the army!"

Having rested and reorganized for several months, Lin Yang felt it was time to send troops to take Guangling Commandery!

"Zilong, how is the training of the soldiers in the army?"

Looking at Zhao Yun on the side, he also hurriedly reported!

"My lord, there are currently twenty-five thousand soldiers in the army, including 1,500 heavy armored Iron Pagodas, 4,000 heavy armored rebar soldiers, and over 19,000 other soldiers!"

In just a few months, the surrendered soldiers gathered before were all incorporated into the army!

Plus the subsequent recruitment of soldiers, Jiangdu County now supported a full twenty-five thousand soldiers in one county!

All of this relied on Lin Yang's terrifying logistical support capability!

300,000 copies of porridge, white flour buns, and pickled vegetables every day!

Fed too many people!

The saved rations were enough to support so many soldiers!

Hearing Zhao Yun's report, Lin Yang nodded!

Such a scale of soldiers!

And 1,500 Iron Pagodas!

The reputation consumption for Lin Yang was truly too great!

Now Jiangdu County had less than 500,000 people!

If he didn't capture Guangling Commandery, Lin Yang's reputation consumption wouldn't be able to keep up!

"Prepare the army, and when the autumn harvest comes, we can send troops to Guanglingcheng!"

He said to Zhao Yun, letting Zhang Chao of Guangling Commandery live for so long!

Lin Yang could finally spare the effort to deal with the other party!

"My lord, can the grain and grass from the reclaimed wasteland really supply the army?"

Cheng Yu, on the side, looked at Lin Yang, who couldn't wait to send troops to Guangling Commandery, hesitated, but still reminded him!

Although 30,000 mu of wasteland was reclaimed this time!

He really didn't know how much grain it could produce!

In the Han Dynasty, when rice was planted in paddy fields, the yield per mu was only about ten shi!

Converted, that was twenty-seven jin!

The rice yield per mu was only two hundred and seventy jin!

30,000 mu of wasteland, if the harvest was good, would only be 300,000 shi of grain!

It was only enough for the army's expenses for three months!

And that was in an ideal state!

According to the current grain configuration of Jiangdu County, this grain probably wouldn't last even two months!

"Haha, Zhongde, you don't need to worry about this!"

Hearing Cheng Yu worry about the lack of grain and grass, Lin Yang comforted him with a light smile!

The rice that could be grown in these 30,000 mu of wasteland was far beyond Cheng Yu's imagination!

As long as he went to see it in two days, he would know!

"My lord, someone is coming to challenge us outside the city!"

Just then, a small soldier from the door hurried over!

In an instant!

Hearing that someone was challenging outside the city gate, everyone's expressions changed!

"How is that possible? Did Zhang Chao's army come?"

The first thing Lin Yang thought of was that Zhang Chao's army had arrived!

During these few months!

Not only was Lin Yang resting and reorganizing, preparing for battle!

Zhang Chao was also preparing for battle!

One mountain cannot hold two tigers!

Guangling Commandery could not hold both him and Zhang Chao!

"No, my lord, it's a person named Taishi Ci who is calling for battle!"

As soon as Taishi Ci was mentioned, a smile appeared on Lin Yang's face!

"Haha, so it's him, let's go, let's go see!"

Hearing that Taishi Ci had come, Lin Yang was excited!

He had sent someone to pick up the other party's mother and had lived in Jiangdu County for so long!

He had finally waited for this top military general of the Three Kingdoms period!

"Quick, send someone to pick up the old lady!"

He ordered the soldiers, and everyone moved out!

Zhao Yun, Seeing Dian Wei, and the others were all curious!

What kind of existence was this military general who was worth Lin Yang treating him like this!

Taishi Ci!

Zhao Yun and Seeing Dian Wei had heard of this name long ago!

Not long after, everyone arrived on the city wall!

They saw Taishi Ci outside Jiangdu County, holding a long spear, riding back and forth, his cursing echoing!

"Lin Ziyuan, return my mother!"

The loud shout echoed, making Zhao Yun, who was beside Lin Yang, displeased!

"My lord, let me go meet him!"

Before Lin Yang could explain, Zhao Yun was the first to request to fight!

Zhao Yun was deeply valued by Lin Yang!

And was entrusted with the responsibility of the heavy armored Iron Pagodas!

In Zhao Yun's view, anyone who dared to curse Lin Yang had to be taught a lesson!

Even if Lin Yang valued the other party!

But the lord could not be insulted!

"Hmm, Zilong, go!"

Glancing around, knowing that these people didn't understand Taishi Ci's ability, Lin Yang agreed to Zhao Yun's request to fight!

Not long after, Zhao Yun was seen riding out, holding a long spear, and rushing up to meet Taishi Ci!

"Taishi Ziyi, take this spear!"

With a loud shout, the silver long spear thrust out, and Taishi Ci, who was cursing, immediately faced a formidable enemy!

"Bang!"

The long spear in his hand met it, and the two collided, a giant force struck, making Taishi Ci's expression freeze!

"Good spear technique!"

Top military generals fighting, just one strike, and Taishi Ci knew he had met his match!

The two fought continuously, and for a time, they fought for more than thirty rounds on the field!

On the city wall, Cheng Yu watched Taishi Ci hold his ground under Zhao Yun for thirty rounds and was secretly amazed!

"Being able to fight Zhao Zilong to a draw for thirty rounds, this Taishi Ziyi indeed has some ability!"

Cheng Yu praised, for he knew Zhao Yun's strength very well!

A top military general who could fight Lu Bu for a hundred rounds!

"Zhongde, look again!"

Watching the scene below with a smile, in just thirty rounds, the two couldn't possibly decide the winner!

Taishi Ci's strength was more than just that!

For a time, under Jiangdu County, the two fought continuously, and as their weapons collided, the battle became more and more intense!

Unknowingly, the two had fought for a hundred rounds!

"Bang!"
