"It seems that Yuan Highway has had a hard time recently!"

The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised a slight sneer: "Since the Great War of Luoyang, the princes of various places have risen one after another, he is the fastest one to rise, and the plaque of the fourth and third princes must be easy to use!" ”

"That's natural!"

Hu Zhao said: "The first family in the world, how influential it is, countless scholars will climb mountains and wade through rivers to take refuge in him!" ”

"There are talents to take refuge in, and there is prestige to rely on, so it is easy for him to get Yuzhou, Yuzhou is a big state in the Central Plains, and Nanyang is in his hands, with the largest population, the most fertile land, strong soldiers and horses, with millions of armor, shocking and majestic!"

Mu Jing chirped.

It's a little resentful to think about.

His father and son have struggled for so long, fighting for life and death, but it is not enough for the influence of his fourth and third dukes, and up to now, there are basically no foreign talents in Hanzhong, and the talents of the Minghou Mansion are either cultivated by themselves, or they are abducted and deceived by Mujingkeng.

No, after laying down Wudu, there are not enough talents to support it.

"But he doesn't have enough strength, he Yuan Highway can't keep this foundation!"

Hu Zhao sighed softly: "I didn't feel much before, but I was blinded by the fame of his fourth and third princes' descendants, and there were Yuan elders staring at it, but now that he is independent, he can see a lot of things, compared to Yuan Benchu Cao Mengde, this person is a little far behind in terms of overall situation, courage, and determination, not to mention defeating Jiangdong, he will not be able to defend Yuzhou sooner or later!" ”

"His attack on Jiangdong is not going well now, and he has let Cao Cao stick a knife in the back, and Nanyang's troops have been crushed by us and Jingzhou, so there will naturally be some problems on top of the situation!"

Xi Zhicai said analytically: "But the Yuan family has a deep heritage in Runan, and the strength of the Yuan army cannot be underestimated!" ”

"Report to the lord, we have obtained some top-secret news from Runan, and I heard that Yuan Shu seems to be planning to mobilize the Jiangdong army to cross the river and go south recently!" Yue Shu added: "But this news has not been confirmed!" ”

"He is going to let the Jiangdong army cross the river and go south?"

Mu Jing's eyes burst out with a gleam: "This is the return of the tiger to the mountain!" ”

Sun Jian, the chief general of the Jiangdong Army, nicknamed the Jiangdong Tiger, was originally based in Jiangdong, and he had been feared by Yuan Shu and pressed to the north.

"Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to control it?" Xi Zhicai frowned.

"Jiangdong can't be attacked for a long time, and Yuzhou has a problem again, he's in a hurry!"

Mu Jing said coldly: "The cards he can use now in his hand, besides Sun Jian, who else can there be, at this time, for the sake of the overall situation, he must release Sun Jian!" ”

"Sun Wentai!"

Hu Zhao called out the name: "This person has dealt with him, and he almost staged our way to the south to break through, I don't know the ability of government affairs, but on the battlefield, he is very terrifying!" ”

"It's gold, and it will shine in the end!"

Mu Jing squinted slightly, and a meaningful light flashed in his eyes.

Isn't the golden scale a thing in the pool, and it changes in the face of the wind and clouds.

This tiger is going to come out of the mountain after all.

"This may be good news for us!" Xi Zhicai said: "At least I won't worry that the Jiangdong Army will appear on the battlefield in Jingzhou!" ”

"Hmm!"

The pastor nodded: "In this way, I can rest assured that I will mobilize my troops!" ”

He stood up and officially ordered: "Now Beiwutang has passed on my military order, immediately send an order to Nanyang, mobilize the Violent Bear Army, Jingping's Second Army, gather soldiers and horses, gather in Wudang and Shandu, and wait for my order!" ”

"No!"

Xi Zhicai gave up his life.

"Huang Zhong!"

"In!"

"You rush to Shandu immediately, this battle against Jingzhou, you are the main general, I will give you the tiger talisman, you have the right to mobilize the Violent Bear Army, all the soldiers of the Jingping Second Army!"

"The last general commands!"

Huang Zhong surrendered his hand.

***************************************************

The division of power between the various ministries and yamen of the Minghou Mansion is very careful, and the decrees are passed down layer by layer, and the efficiency is very fast, when the Beiwutang transfer military order comes down, the entire Minghou Mansion is like a war machine, and it quickly turns.

After the order to transfer troops went down, the rest of the things had nothing to do with Mu Jing.

He has just returned from the battle, and the whole of the Minghou Mansion will not agree to him running Jingzhou again, and the battle of Jingzhou has not started so quickly, at least until the end of the year, slowly, to exchange news with Yizhou, it may have to wait until the beginning of spring next year.

This is just the beginning of preparation.

The dispute with Yizhou also began, and Hu Zhao set up a special negotiation team to prepare for a long time of negotiations with Yizhou, whether it was provided before the war, or the responsibility during the war, and the cleaning up after the war, it was a problem.

Mu Jing doesn't pay much attention to these.

He's busy.

In the more than four months of the expedition, the accumulation of large and small affairs can crush the desk, although both civil and military are responsible, but after all, there are some things that need to be done by him, the lord, in person.

For the next ten days, Mu Jing was pressed in the Zhaoming Pavilion, and one by one the recitals were sent out of his hands.

"Hongfeng and Zhengyang Commercial Bank want to jointly establish an exchange in Hanzhong, you can approve it!"

Mu Jing handed the notebook to Huo Yu and said: "But you and Master Liu said that it would be best to add some local merchants to it, Sun Hao knows the influence of this exchange very well, so they will spend money, but it is related to the commercial development of Hanzhong, we can't sit idly by!" ”

"Understood!"

"And these transcripts, how did you hand them over, how did you send them back!" Mu Jing threw down the more than ten notebooks on the left side directly.

"Lord, this is all sent by the South Study!"

"Tell Liu Jin, if he can't even control this south study, then don't care, all the trivial things are sent up, what do I want him to do!" Mu Jing said coldly.

"Yes!"

Huo Yu smiled bitterly.

Liu Jin was too cautious, and many things did not dare to overstep his authority, so the large and small scripts were basically sent to Zhaomingtang, but this would greatly affect the operation efficiency of the Minghou Mansion, which naturally angered Mujing.

Mu Jing never worried about his subordinates taking power, he was worried about the people who were in his position and did not seek political power, so Liu Jin angered Mu Jing.

"How's the two gallops going?"

"The Hanshui Chi Road is very smooth, but the Dongshan Chi Road has encountered a lot of difficulties, and it is difficult to open the mountain and pave the road!" Huo Yu replied that he could serve as a secretary and clerk beside Mu Jing, and he would know about the following big and small things, as long as Mu Jing asked, he could answer one or two.

"Overcome difficulties when there are difficulties!"

Mu Jing said: "The funds of the other commercial banks have been invested, if we can't overcome the difficulties and play this gallop, we will lose the reputation of our Minghou Mansion, which is never allowed!" ”

Reputation is very important, especially the new construction of the Minghou Mansion, if you can't have a trustworthy reputation to face the people of the world, no one will form an alliance with the Minghou Mansion, in this troubled world, the princes are in groups, and they will die if they fight alone.

"Hmm!"

Huo Yu nodded: "I'll go and supervise Gong Cao!" ”

"How many more notebooks!"

"The rest should be the transcripts sent by Beiwutang!" Huo Yu replied: "The lord has been on the front line in the past few months, but some things in the army still need the lord to pass the purpose, after all, the results of the training also need the lord to know!" ”

"Good!"

Mu Jing flipped through them one by one: "You go and get busy, I'll take a closer look!" ”

"No!"

Huo Yu gave up.

"Wait!"

Mu Jing stopped him.

"Lord, do you still have orders?"

"Yi Ji has been released to practice, you still have to look for a candidate who can replace him, Zhaomingtang can't let you carry it alone!" Mu Jing said softly: "You know better than anyone what abilities are needed by the people around you!" ”

"Yes!"

Huo Yu nodded.

Not everyone can be like themselves, always by Mujing's side, if you want to be by Mujing's side, you must be able to pass, be loyal, and have a certain emotional intelligence and know when to do something.

……

In September, the weather is cold, and early autumn has arrived.

The autumn harvest is also coming as scheduled.

This year's autumn harvest is a different autumn harvest for Hanzhong.

At the time of spring ploughing, Nong Cao proposed to use the seedling method, which changed the sowing of this era, and replaced the backward technology of sowing seeds with the technology of transplanting.

On this day, Mu Jing personally led Nong Cao and other officials to a test field, hundreds of acres of fertile land, everywhere is a piece of yellow Chengcheng, this scene is the scene that countless farmers like to see.

"Start harvesting!"

Mu Jing rolled up the robe on his feet, pulled up his sleeves again, took a new type of sickle, and stepped into the paddy field himself, with one foot of mud and one foot of water, and walked onto the fertile field.

The officials looked at each other.

A helpless wry smile.

They just came to inspect, and they didn't think about doing farm work, but now that Mu Jing has personally played, they can only play, Nongcao is now a big yamen, from the head down, there are dozens of officials.

Harvesting, threshing, threshing...... A series of procedures, quite complicated.

In this day and age, harvesting is not a simple matter.

After a few days, they only harvested five acres of land, which made them so busy that their waists and poles could not be straightened, and they could not be forced to be farmers, and the rest was harvested collectively.

"Tell a certain family, how is the harvest?"

Mu Jing is most concerned about this issue now.

This time, Nong Cao used the seedling method, first raising seedlings, and then transplanting seedlings, which is different from the traditional kind of direct throwing away seeds to germinate without rules, which seems to be a lot better, but it also needs to speak with data.

Whether or not the seedling method can be directly promoted depends on the problem of harvest, and it is possible to promote it only if the farmers trust at least the farmer.

"Twenty-seven stones!"

Nong Cao's director Liu Ling replied excitedly.

"Five acres of land, more than five stones per mu?" Mu Jing's eyes lit up.

In this era, the yield per mu is very low, and it is good to have three stones, and it is definitely a breakthrough to mention the yield of five stones of rice per mu in one breath.
