Cross the bandit to be the emperor

"One mu yields [-] to [-] catties of grain? How is that possible? Didn't it mean that Baiyue is not suitable for growing grain?"

The leader of the great merchant army had a look of disbelief.

This is the yield of one mu of grain in Baiyue?

Why does it sound like you are listening to a fairy tale?

Is it because Baiyue is not suitable for growing food, or is it not suitable for growing food in Dashang territory?He was a little confused for a moment!

Wait for the guard to leave.

The leader of the great merchant army is still a little lost.

For a moment, they couldn't figure out whether their understanding of Baiyue was wrong, or the thieves had discovered good food seeds, or this land was special, so the enemy built the city here?

All in all, it's not good news.

However, compared to this war, this result is not too bad.

According to the statistics of his subordinates, the fields around Gancheng are at least 300 million mu.

Even if the output per mu is 300 catties, it is enough for [-] million people to eat only grain until this time next year.

Their conquest army, until now, still has about 29 soldiers, even with the troops sent by the major forces in Baiyue, it is only about 40, and the food is enough!

Even, they can send a large number of troops from Dashang again!Or, recruit more troops from the major forces in Baiyue!

When the army moves forward, food and grass are often a big limitation!

Limit the speed of the army!

Limit the number of armies!

Now, there is a lot of food around the enemy's city to be harvested, but this problem has been completely solved!

"Be careful, don't let the enemy set fire to these ripening grains, and let people quickly divide these grains into small pieces"

Soon, the leader of the great merchant army thought of something, summoned a personal guard again, and ordered.

"Yes, General."

The bodyguard bowed his hand.

Gancheng.

main hall.

"Is the enemy harvesting food?"

Li Yi pondered after receiving the information from outside.

He is not worried about letting the enemy discover the grain production around Gancheng. He is not even worried that the enemy will take the seeds to Dashang to plant them on a large scale. Anyway, as long as he takes down Dashang in the future, everything the enemy does will be his fruit.

In this way, the enemy's food and grass problem has almost been solved.

Enemy, shouldn't you be in a hurry?

"Unfortunately, the food in Gancheng is almost exhausted, otherwise, it will be a good opportunity to delay for a while."

After a pause, Li Yi sighed slightly.

After another year and a half, he would be happy!

"However, it's not impossible to delay for a while."

Then, Li Yi whispered thoughtfully.

Chapter 2

He spent the power of faith to upgrade the military rations, which can make the military rations more nutritious, so that the people in Gancheng and Xuncheng only need to eat a small amount of food to be full.

Because of the savings in the early stage, at present, Gancheng and Xuncheng still have enough food for the soldiers and civilians to eat for a month.

He used the power of faith to upgrade, and let the people of Gancheng and Xuncheng eat for a month and a half, there should be no problem.

If you are just going to the primary level, you only need to spend about [-] points of power of faith, which is worthwhile.

February 22.

In Gancheng and Xuncheng, hundreds of golden eagles were sent out, and they left the city directly without bringing anyone with them.

Such a large-scale operation of the golden eagle naturally alarmed the surrounding large merchant army, and many of them became nervous. During this time, they were really afraid of being bombed by the enemy's explosives.

after an hour.

All the golden eagles returned to the city, but each golden eagle carried a small bag of food under its paws.

Around Gancheng and Xuncheng, many great merchants were excited.

"The enemy is short of food!"

"Damn it, the enemy is finally short of food!"

"Golden eagles transport food? There are 200 million people in these two cities. How much food can these golden eagles bring?"

The big merchant generals laughed loudly.

Dawn seemed to be right in front of my eyes.

In addition, a large amount of grain was planted around Gancheng, so that they did not have to worry about food and grass, and each of them had a very good mentality.

"I suggest that we send a top-level cavalry around. The place where these golden eagles transport food must not be far away, and send people to attack and kill their food team."

A big merchant general said.

"This suggestion works"

"I recommend"

One by one the big business generals said.

Because Li Yi did not perform a long-term healing technique on each golden eagle, each golden eagle did not carry much food, and the efficiency of transporting food was very slow. Every time it was transported, it had to rest for two hours, and every three or four times it was transported. , No more food can be transported that day.

A high-end golden eagle can transport 25 kilograms of grain at a time.

A top golden eagle can transport 35 kilograms of grain at a time.

No matter how heavy it is, it's not that it can't fly, but it can't fly for a long time.

Unless, Li Yi used long-term healing on them.

More than 100 golden eagles can transport more than 1 kilograms of grain every day.

Even if it was all Li Yi's upgraded primary military rations, it was still insignificant compared to the two million people in the two cities.

February 23.

More than 300 golden eagles participated in the food transportation.

The generals of the Great Merchant Army frowned slightly after seeing it. They didn't expect that there were so many golden eagles in Gancheng and Xuncheng, but they didn't pay much attention.

Even if more than 300 golden eagles participate in food transportation, how much can they transport?

Sooner or later, the people of Gancheng and Xuncheng will be unable to hold on!

February 24.

More than 500 golden eagles participated in the food transportation.

This time, the faces of the generals of the great merchant army did not change much.

More than 300 golden eagles and more than 500 golden eagles, coupled with the batches of food, and the distance between the large merchant army, the golden eagles all took off and landed in the center of the city, and it was difficult for them to see the difference.

There are more than 500 golden eagles, minus the original upgraded golden eagles, Li Yi only upgraded [-].

They are all high-end golden eagles, and together, they only cost more than 4000 Faith Power.

At this time, these golden eagles can already transport [-] kilograms of military rations every day.

That is one hundred thousand catties.

For primary military rations, each person can eat seven taels a day to be full.

Only enough to feed more than 14 people.

Even if you save food, compared to 200 million people, this number is still a bit small.

The meals are just a little less than usual, Li Yi has no intention of letting the people in the city live as refugees.

In that case, it will not be conducive to the power of faith for everyone, and it will not be conducive to the cohesion of people's hearts, and some gains outweigh the losses.

In a blink of an eye, it was the third day of March.

During this period of time, a large amount of grain outside Gancheng matured, and the large merchant army harvested a lot of grain, and they were very happy.

I have already written a memorial to explain the situation of Baiyue, and at the same time request the imperial court to order more forces from Baiyue to participate in the siege of the city.

It's not that the big merchants are allowed to send troops again. It is the kingly way to drive other forces to fight such a difficult enemy.

The food they harvested was enough to support more troops.

During this period, the number of grain-transporting golden eagles in Gancheng and Xuncheng also expanded to more than 700.

The two sides held on to each other like this.

It's not that Li Yi doesn't want to increase the number of golden eagles transporting food.

But transporting food is not a simple matter.

Especially to deliver food to a population of 200 million.

Take a look at the 30 troops of Dashang. When they transported grain from Dashang, they had a headache. Later, they let the major forces in Baiyue to transport grains to solve this problem.

Not to mention delivering food to 200 million people?

Baiyue was short of food!

Where do you get so much food?

From getting grain to transporting grain, this is a huge project, so Li Yi sent a lot of men!

During this period, the large merchant army outside Gancheng and Xuncheng also wanted to attack the grain transportation teams around Gancheng and Xuncheng.

It's a pity that Dagan has a large number of golden eagles, and their every move is in Dagan's eyes!

A small number of "ordinary" troops dare to break away from the large army, as long as they exceed a hundred miles, they will die!

Some of the [-] or so top-level cavalry in the Great Merchant's conquest army also sent out a part to lead a team to look for Dagan's grain transport team. Unfortunately, as long as they dispatched, they never found a Dagan grain transport team.

After a long time, the big merchants' conquest army could only defend the city honestly, and did not dare to divide their troops to find the big dry grain transportation team.

Because the food transportation team on the other side was limited, no matter how many golden eagles were sent by Gancheng and Xuncheng, it was useless.

Therefore, the golden eagle team for transporting food only stopped when it reached more than 700.

Baiyue Central.

During this period of time, the population of Baiyue, which has been gathered by the big cadres, is developing in full swing.

All the foundations for building the city have been done, and many foundations have also been laid. Similarly, a city is divided into ten areas for construction, and half of one area has been built.

The population of Dagan in the center of Baiyue has reached 130 million.

With so many manpower, to do one thing, the efficiency is extremely fast.

Especially, when Li Yi has upgraded a large number of professionals.

Some time ago, Li Yi asked many golden eagles to bring a large number of construction talents. With those construction talents, he can train a large number of construction professionals, and the speed is very fast.

March tenth.

Li Yi's power of faith reached 350 million points.

Li Yi was not in a hurry to upgrade more innate characters.

Just to deal with the big battle in front of him, the strength of his subordinates is enough.

Mainly to deal with unknown dangers, it may not be the right choice for him to use a lot of power of faith to upgrade his innate primary combat power now.

When you really need a lot of innate primary combat power, it's not too late to upgrade temporarily.

March twenty.

Li Yi's power of faith exceeded 450 million points.

Dagan has a population of 140 million in the center of Baiyue.
