"Yes." Wu Sheng and the others hurriedly agreed, and then one by one they got up with their already numb legs and walked into the big tent.

There was a candle fire lit in the big tent, and the hall was very bright. Yang Chendong was holding an ancient book in his hand and watching, waiting for Wu Sheng and the others to enter the account one by one and stand up, then he slowly raised his head. The grim gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one.

But everyone who was stared at by Yang Chendong couldn't help but lower their heads, as if they had done something wrong. And just when everyone was worried in their hearts, not knowing what the sixth young master would do with them next, Yang Chendong finally spoke. "It's late at night, and the warriors are asleep, what does that mean?"

"Huh?" In the face of this sudden question, everyone was stunned, at a loss, and did not know how to answer.

Wu Sheng first looked confused, then turned his head to the side, and his eyes fell on the political commissar Chen Bo, wanting an answer. It's just that Chen Bo at this time was also confused, and he couldn't understand why the sixth young master would ask such a question.

Even Chen Bo didn't know, and the others were even more unclear, everyone was stunned and didn't know how to answer, all of which made Yang Chendong see it clearly, and then his voice came again, "This shows that with you and without you, the army still exists, and you can do what you should do?" ”

"Oh." Everyone suddenly realized, and then their faces turned red.

Finally understood what the sixth young master meant, some of them did have an arrogant mentality, thinking that it was precisely because of their own reasons that the soldiers below were so obedient and could win the battle. But now after Yang Chendong said this, he was surprised to find that there was no oneself, and the soldiers below were also very orderly, so wouldn't their role become minimal?

The reason why Yang Chendong chose to see everyone after falling asleep was to warn them in this way. Don't think that if the army leaves you, you will be in chaos, it turns out that everyone on this earth is still turning when they leave, even without Yang Chendong.

After striking everyone with his words, Yang Chendong sighed and said, "Facts have proven that it is not you who have made these lovely warriors, but these lovely warriors who have made you." So put away your arrogance and think more about your soldiers when you are on the battlefield in the future. Sometimes one bad decision of yours costs them their lives, you see? ”

"Yes, Sixth Young Master, we understand." Everyone answered in unison. This is not perfunctory, but a real remorse in my heart.

Everyone looked like they were regretful, and Ye La and Liu Dai fell to their knees again and again, and said loudly, "Sixth Young Master, we were wrong. We were too self-righteous to care about our brother's life. ”

"You're wrong. Because of one of your wrong decisions, many Jurchen elites died because of this, and this is a lesson that not only you but everyone else should keep in mind. ”

"Yes, we wrote it down." Wu Sheng, Chen Bo and the others all replied with a look of benefit.

It can be seen that this sentence is sincere, Yang Chendong is very satisfied in his heart, but he still has an unforgiving look on his lips and says, "Even if you do something wrong, then you must be ready to be punished." Ye La, Liu Dai, the two of you disobeyed the military order, there were mistakes in command, one person recorded a major demerit, and the fine was half a year, if there is a next time, directly expelled from the army, do you have any opinions? ”

Hearing that they could continue to lead the troops, how could Ye La and Liu Dai dare to have an opinion, so they nodded in unison and agreed, and at the same time promised that there would be no next time.

"As for the others, each will be punished with one, and at the same time fined for half a year, do you have any opinions?"

Wu Sheng and the others didn't expect to come to intercede, and they even carried a punishment, but they didn't take it too seriously for half a year, as long as they made military achievements, they could get the silver of white flowers, which was much more than Yulu.

But even if it was Yang Chendong's order, of course no one dared to object, and nodded yes one by one. They didn't know that the reason why they were so strict that even the person who pleaded for mercy had to be punished was because Yang Chendong didn't want such a thing to happen a second time, otherwise, as soon as someone made a mistake, the others would follow and intercede, wouldn't it be chaotic, how could he lead his troops to fight?

The matter was finally resolved, and Wu Sheng and the others went back to the barracks with their exhaustion. Yang Chendong put down the ancient book in his hand, came to the sand table in the tent, looked left and right, pointed to Xu Yunsheng, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion he had just called, and asked, "Are there still people from the Mobei Mongolian tribe around here?" ”

"There should still be some, but they are all retail households, and there are only one or several households for tens or hundreds of miles, so it is really impossible for the army to stay here." Xu Yunsheng understood what the sixth young master meant, and immediately gave an answer.

"Well, there is not much food in the barracks, and there is enough mutton to eat every day, so I will inform you to go down and prepare early tomorrow morning, and after lunch at noon, the army will march out and retreat to Shicheng." Yang Chendong nodded and gave the order to withdraw the troops.

After a total of twenty-four days, Yang Chendong finally returned to Shicheng with the army.

is different from when traveling, this time there are countless horses and sheep following the army, as well as nearly 10,000 people from the Mobei Mongolian tribes before and after.

As soon as these people entered the city, they were handed over to the city lord Yu Mian, and Yang Chendong himself went straight to the wasteland reclaimed by the city teeth.

There is strength in numbers! Taizu's words are honest and do not deceive me.

With the efforts of Yu Mian and the joint efforts of the left-behind warriors of the people in the city, in just twenty days, a full 2,000 acres of wasteland were reclaimed outside the city. Looking at the flat ground and the straight ditch, Yang Chendong was very satisfied. "Yes, yes, you can consider greenhouse planting."

The weather on the grassland, compared to the inland, is colder, to put it mildly, it is not an exaggeration, here is twelve months a year, but half the time the weather is cold, which also leads to such a climate, crops can only have one season.

Natural climatic factors made the life of the people who were still dependent on food at that time difficult, which is not easy to change. But because of the arrival of Yang Chendong, this is destined to change, and growing vegetables in greenhouses is the primary reform he wants to carry out.

It doesn't matter if it's an army or a country. If you want to be stable, you must first be able to fill your stomach. Otherwise, you won't be able to eat, and who do you still point to to work with, work together, and work hard together?

There is a saying that if there are difficulties, there are difficulties, and if there are no difficulties, you must also go up, what Yang Chendong has to do is to solve the difficulties together!

Looking at this flat ground, Yang Chendong had enough confidence in his heart. He sent a telegram to Chichicheng long before he set out to conquer the Mobei Mongolian tribes, asking them to make greenhouse pipes and plastic films according to their own requirements, these things may be problematic in other places if they want to be produced, but they have already been invented in Chichicheng, and they have already begun to be used in Chichicheng, and the technology has matured. As soon as these things and seeds arrive, they can be built, and three months later, when winter comes, they should be able to eat fresh vegetables, which must be considered a feat.

Yang Chendong led the army back, not only that, but also brought back a lot of prisoners, just from this point of view, the Mobei Mongol army should have been defeated.

The mercenaries' successive defeats of Agadorji and Sud Khan made him famous in the steppe, and no one dared to underestimate him, and no one dared to take them lightly.

Just when everyone was still thinking that autumn was coming, the cold winter was coming, and the mercenaries should become honest, suddenly everyone found that the 2,000 acres of land that had just been reclaimed outside the city of Shicheng suddenly became lively.

Anyone who knows the climate here knows that this season is not suitable for growing any crops. Can you guarantee to protect the fruits of victory, not to mention, just to say that in this kind of weather, you have to freeze to death if you plant anything, this is God does not allow you to do, who can go against the sky?

And it was at this time that the mercenaries wanted to do such a rebellious act, how could it not surprise and surprise. The first feeling of the other nearby forces when they heard the news was that the mercenaries were crazy, and they were going to do a useless task with a huge investment, but in the end there was no gain.

But on the land outside the First City, Yu Mian really didn't think so.

When I was in Chichicheng, there were already greenhouses to grow vegetables, just because the climate there was quite good, and there was no problem with crops in two seasons a year, even if there were greenhouses, there were not many of them. It's not that he hasn't, on the contrary, he has been to see it. Later, when he heard Yang Chendong say that he could try to plant greenhouses here, he felt that the ideas in his mind suddenly opened up, and immediately sent a telegram to his old son Yu Qian, asking him for help, and sending some old farmers who had planted greenhouses to help Shicheng.

Yu Qian will certainly take care of his son's request for help. In addition, this was originally the meaning of the sixth young master, and it didn't take long for the first batch of 100 old farmers with greenhouse planting operations to come to Shicheng by boat with various materials, and then the vigorous greenhouse planting was launched here.

It's only September, and the weather is still nice. The greenhouse pipe is just buried, vaguely formed, and not covered with plastic film. Therefore, in the eyes of the locals, this move is a manifestation of the mercenary madness.

Knowledge changes fate and life, and no one realized at the time what mercenaries would gain after three months.

"Pay attention to the temperature when growing vegetables in greenhouses, the plastic film is too thin, if the temperature outside is too low, the vegetables inside may freeze to death..."

"We also need to pay attention to insect and pest control..."
