After the county magistrates left, Du Yuan asked Gao Shun,"
"Gao Shun, how is the situation of the Black Mountain Army that surrendered yesterday?”
Gao Shun replied,"
"My lord, there were more than 60,000 soldiers from the Black Mountain Army who surrendered yesterday. More than 30,000 of them died in the battle with us. The rest of the surrendered enemies have been guarded by soldiers and are waiting for my lord's orders.”
Du Yuan thought for a while and said,"
"60,000. Leave 10,000 for the Heavenly Dragon Army. When Wenyuan returns, you two will assist in training.”
"Send the remaining 20,000 to Yanmen to guard the border. The remaining 30,000 will be used by the construction camp first.”
Gao Shun accepted the order and said,
"Yes! However, my lord, suddenly recruiting so many people might not be enough. If we want to prepare for the attack on the Xianbei next year, we might need to prepare more food.”
Du Yuan rubbed his temples and replied,"
"Alright, I'll think of a way to solve the problem of grain.”
After Gao Shun left, Du Yuan pondered and said,"
"Grain, grain, just using the system to exchange for it won't do.”
Suddenly, Du Yuan exclaimed,"
"System, then I can see if there are any crops with high production like potatoes and sweet potatoes. If we mass produce these things now, we can probably feed our warhorses with more food.”
After saying that, Du Yuan immediately took action.
[Open the System Store: Check out potatoes and sweet potatoes.]
Potato and sweet potato have been found.
[Potato: 1 achievement point can be exchanged for 50 catties]
[Sweet potatoes: 1 achievement point can be exchanged for 50 catties]
"Eh? Coincidentally, one achievement point could be exchanged for 50 catties. If these two things were planted well, they could produce 8000 catties per mu. In this era, they were definitely considered advanced products.'
50,000 catties each
Received order, deduction of two thousand merit points (2000)
for successfully purchasing
[Potato: 50,000 catties]
[Sweet potatoes: 50,000 catties]
The exchange item has been stored in the warehouse.
[Current achievement points: Current achievement points: Two million three thousand three hundred and sixty-three (2003363)
After he was done, Du Yuan heaved a sigh of relief and said,
"The problem of food has been solved. I have to go to the drill ground to see their training.”
Not long after, Du Yuan arrived at the drill ground.
After seeing Du Yuan, the soldiers who were training greeted him one after another. Du Yuan nodded in response.
Looking at the soldiers who were training, Du Yuan was filled with joy. In this turbulent period of the Three Kingdoms, he had some confidence.
When Du Yuan walked to the training field, he saw that the weapons used by some soldiers were actually still chipped.
Du Yuan immediately asked,"
"Are there no new weapons? Why do you still have this weapon to train with?”
Seeing Du Yuan come over, the soldier greeted Du Yuan and replied,
"My lord, the new weapons are not as sharp as our original weapons. Moreover, after using them for a long time, they have developed some feelings, so they are not willing to change.”
When Du Yuan heard this, he immediately thought that the forging technology of weapons in this period was not enough, so the sharpness and hardness of weapons were relatively poor.
After thinking for a while, Du Yuan pulled out the Heavenly Dragon Sword and said,
"Look at this weapon!”
The soldiers looked at the Heavenly Dragon Sword that Du Yuan had pulled out and naturally said,
"My lord's Heavenly Dragon Sword is very sharp and has killed countless enemies, but such a treasured weapon is really rare.”
This sword was a weapon that Du Yuan had exchanged for in the system previously. It was forged using modern steel. He pondered and wondered if the system had this steel forging technique.
He opened the system and exchanged for the Fine Steel Forging Technique.
[System Notification: The current iron-making technology is insufficient. The Fine Steel Forging Art needs to be used together with a Fine Steel Forging Machine to produce Fine Steel weapons.]
[Fine Steel Forging Technique: 10000 achievement points]
[Steel Forging Machine: One Hundred Thousand (100000) achievement points]
Would you like to exchange?
When Du Yuan saw the price, he cursed in his heart. It was so expensive, 110,000 merit points. However, when he thought about how it could be used to forge steel weapons, he felt relieved.
"Exchange!"
[Received order: 110000 achievement points deducted.]
Exchange successful
The exchanged item, Fine Steel Forging Machine, has been stored in the warehouse.
[Current achievement points: Current achievement points: One million eight hundred and ninety-three thousand three hundred and sixty-three (1893363)
It only takes a few breaths to finish these things
Du Yuan said to the soldiers who had a sense of anticipation in their eyes,
"Since you want it, then as my lord, I will definitely satisfy your needs. Don't worry, you will soon be assigned such sharp weapons.”
The soldiers were overjoyed when they heard this.
A moment later, Du Yuan arrived at the work camp.
At this time, the work camp was busy. All the ironsmiths were focused on hammering the weapons in their hands. They did not even notice Du Yuan's arrival.
Seeing this scene, Du Yuan smiled in relief. Then, he walked to the side of an old man in his fifties and watched quietly.
This old man is the battalion commander of the labor camp, Wang Ge.
Not long after, Wang Ge sensed someone beside him and turned his head to look.
After realizing that it was Du Yuan, he quickly ended his work and bowed to Du Yuan,
"My lord,"
Before he could finish, Du Yuan interrupted him and said,
"Old Wang, you should just call me by my name. I'm not used to calling you Lord.”
"Oh right, I brought you something good. You'll definitely like it.”
Du Yuan smiled wickedly. He knew that the old man in front of him was especially obsessed with smithing because this old man was Du Yuan's bragging partner in the city. He would come to watch Du Yuan forge and brag to him every day. Forging and martial arts were also common, so Du Yuan's moves were very simple. Just like what Wang Ge had said at that time, if you were strong, who could withstand a hammer strike? Even if you could withstand it, give him another hammer strike and see what else he could put on.
Wang Ge asked in surprise,
"What good thing is it that even you, Zihao, came here personally? It seems that this thing is not simple.”
Wang Ge's interest was immediately piqued, and the expression on his face gradually turned expectant.
After seeing Wang Ge's expectant expression, Du Yuan pulled out the weapon beside him.
When Wang Ge saw this scene, he was instantly furious and said,
"Little bastard, you're using this sword to tease me again. I'm not criticizing you, but there's no other sword like this in this world. Tnnd, I don't know what kind of luck you have to be able to get such a good weapon. Last time, I told a good friend of mine that he didn't believe me. Since you're here, lend me this sword for two days. I'll go show it off. Otherwise, they'll always say that I'm bragging.”
Wang Ge immediately became picky. He was the only one who would talk to Du Yuan like this because Wang Ge had some friendship with Du Yuan's father. He was also an old man that Du Tianhao respected when he was still alive.
However, Du Yuan was different. Previously, Du Yuan had nothing better to do and would come to him to brag all day long. Because Wang Ge was older, he did not follow him to the expedition.
Du Yuan laughed after hearing that.
"Elder Wang, it's not impossible to lend it to you, but those few jars of old wine you treasured.
