Tao Jianran looked through the record book at a glance, and an excited smile appeared on his face,

The average grain yield per mu in Ning'an this year is nearly double that of last year!

Except for Lingzhou, the originally empty granaries of counties and townships in Yuezhou and Haizhou have now been filled to more than half with grain.Even if there is another natural and man-made disaster this year, the food will be enough to last for a long time!

Ning'an has a vast land and few people. If the improvement of the plow can be promoted, more wasteland will be reclaimed in the future, and the grain production will continue to rise!It's just that Ning'an's iron is basically used to make weapons now, and the team sent by Wang Lingjun to search for minerals doesn't know if they can find it.

Besides iron, there is also salt.There is a large salt cooking factory in Haizhou with nearly 300 workers, but because the salt cooking method is very time-consuming and laborious, the salt produced is only enough for the entire Ning'an to make do with.Moreover, the quality of the salt was not high. Tao Jianran knew that all the salt used by the palace was bought from outside.Now Qi Bohan is trying to increase his troops, if he can release the labor force of the salt factory...

Tao Jianran slapped his head, randomly drew the outline of the salt farm on the white paper, and took the things to find Niu Chenghong.

After the Linhai Canal was completed, Niu Chenghong resigned from his post, and now he has a spare job running around to measure the data of the second and third phases of the Linhai Canal.I just came back to look for information recently, and by the way, I got a set of science textbooks for junior high school and high school.When Tao Jianran found him on the third floor of the library, he was holding a small ruler he made himself, and he didn't know what he was measuring on the paper.

"Brother Niu."

When his train of thought was interrupted, Niu Chenghong frowned in displeasure, but when he saw that it was Tao Jian, he immediately relaxed: "Young Master Tao, what's the matter?"

"Yes." Tao Yanran handed the circles he drew to Niu Chenghong, and said, "Look at this, I want to build a salt farm in Haizhou."

Niu Chenghong took the piece of paper and looked at the circle that looked more like a big pancake, with an indescribable expression on his face, but he still listened to Tao Jianran's narration very seriously.

In his previous life, Tao Jianran had only learned about this method of drying salt, but he didn't know how it was done.But the most important thing about the salt farm is the height difference. How to build it can be left to Niu Chenghong to figure out.

After all, Niu Chenghong was the one who presided over the construction of the Linhai Canal.After listening to Tao Jianran's request and a few very general narrations, he immediately understood what Tao Jianran wanted, and his eyes lit up immediately.

No matter in which dynasty, salt is a very important strategic material.If Ning'an can produce a large amount of high-quality salt, he can no longer be controlled by others, and can even start to lead the situation!

Although Niu Chenghong is not good at political affairs, but he has been with Qi Bohan for so long, he still has some political acumen, so he quickly remembered what Tao Jianran said, and solemnly said: "I will deal with this matter immediately!"

----

The location where Qi Bohan ambushed the Xiongnu army was a section of official road not far from the capital.The official road has been in disrepair for a long time, and the road is full of potholes. The soldiers of the Huns walked very slowly with so many things.When Ning'an's soldiers rushed forward, they were still paying attention to the shallow pits under their feet. They never thought that the emperor would surrender, and they would encounter an ambush on the way back!

Ning'an's army was well-equipped, and they killed nearly a thousand people with one blow!

But the Xiongnu were able to attack all the way from the border to the imperial city. Naturally, they were not incompetent people. There was also a veteran general among them!After realizing that his side was being attacked, he immediately gathered his troops and started fighting with Ning'an soldiers!

Although Qi Bohan is a novice, he has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and he is talented. Only two battles have allowed him to grow up rapidly.Seeing that the enemy had firmly resisted the attack, he immediately gave the order to retreat.

The generals of the Xiongnu were puzzled, but they did not order to pursue them.Their task is to transport these trophies back to the country, and there must be no complications!

Seeing that the opponent was not fooled, Qi Bohan immediately understood that this is a general who can hold his breath.But so what if you can hold your breath?The Huns are notoriously hot-tempered, so many brothers died this time and they couldn't fight back. If they swallowed this breath, how many more people would die?

Even if he can't consume the opponent's patience, he can eat up these soldiers bit by bit before the army leaves Ruichao!

Five days later.

Qi Bohan stood on a high place and gave the order to retreat again.

This was their fifth sneak attack on the Huns.After the first sneak attack, because the Huns were prepared, the results of the next few victories were not very good. In total, only a dozen Huns were killed, and there were also wounded on their own side.

The speed of the sneak attack is the most important thing, and the wounded soldiers can no longer participate in the operation. Now the two sides are basically equal, but the situation is not good for Qi Bohan's side.The Xiongnu soldiers are all brave and good at fighting, and half of their team are recruits. The only victory they have fought is against bandits who are vulnerable to one blow, which is not a useful experience.The experienced soldiers are already too old, and their mobility is far behind that of the Huns.

This is the strength of the Ning Security Department, Qi Bohan absolutely dare not lose it, all the commanders are careful to preserve their own strength.And this level of attack is tantamount to scratching the itch for the Xiongnu army, and it will not have much effect at all.

It has been half a month since he left Ning'an, and Qi Bohan's face has already grown a green beard, adding to his aura of vicissitudes.He looked straight ahead, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

According to the current speed of advancement, the Xiongnu will be able to leave the territory of Rui Dynasty in half a month.As for their five sneak attacks, many people in the imperial city must have known about it, so it can't be delayed any longer!Otherwise, let those people rush over, even if they can kill the Hun army, they will be reaped by others!

Tonight is the last chance!

For these five sneak attacks, Qi Bohan chose at noon, and the sneak attack just today, even if the Huns did not suffer any losses, it must have taken a lot of energy to deal with it. Two attacks on the same day!

Qi Bohan looked at the phalanx of soldiers in front of him. Although the soldiers were beginning to feel a little tired after five days of fighting, no matter whether they were new soldiers or veterans, their expressions and eyes were very determined, and they stood in a meticulous military posture.Even though they have not won a victory for four consecutive days, their energy is a hundred times stronger than that of the Hun soldiers!

Qi Bohan nodded in satisfaction, the soldiers trained by Tao Jianran's method were indeed many times better than before.If Ning'an's army can expand to 1 people or even more, why worry about sweeping the world? !

Qi Bohan's heart was full of pride, but it didn't show on his face.After ordering the soldiers to repair on the spot, Ding Qingyun was called over.

After Ding Qingyun shined in the competition last time, although he has not yet graduated from the military academy, everyone has already regarded him as a member of the official army.For young people with potential, Qi Bohan will also spare no effort to cultivate them.In this battle, Ding Qingyun was pushed in as a logistics soldier.

One is to let him experience real battles, and the other is to let him learn how to form troops by Qi Bohan's side.

Qi Bohan would always bring Ding Qingyun by his side when he was formulating a battle plan with the lieutenant general.This young man has a bold personality, even in the face of such imposing people as Qi Bohan and other lieutenants, he does not shy away, and he can quickly fight with the soldiers.

That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.

Under the bright moonlight, the field of vision is wider than in ordinary nights. This is really not a suitable time for a sneak attack.The Xiongnu army obviously relaxed their guard. Except for the soldiers in charge of patrolling, they all lay down on the ground in twos and threes, recharging their energy for tomorrow's battle.

This time, Qi Bohan finally stopped sitting in the rear, but personally led a small group of soldiers, and quietly lurked near the only tent in the Huns camp.

The opponent's general is cunning and sophisticated. If he cannot be killed in time, tonight's event is likely to fail.This is the most important part of their plan, and there is no room for loss!

Qi Bohan used lightness skills and took the lead in lurking in a blind spot behind the tent, and other soldiers quickly followed, moving quickly without attracting anyone's attention.

Qi Bohan took out the newly made dagger from the arsenal, and scratched lightly on the tent, almost without a sound, the thick cowhide tent was cut open a small hole.The tent was pitch black, and Qi Bohan was just about to sprinkle sweat medicine inside according to the plan, when suddenly he had a thought and turned over to the right!

As soon as Qi Bohan left the spot, a gleaming broadsword slashed at the spot he was just now.If he didn't have time to dodge this blow, even with hard armor, he would inevitably be seriously injured!Qi Bohan's pupils shrank when he saw the general of the Xiongnu who appeared suddenly, this man actually knows martial arts!

Martial arts pay attention to moves and tricks, which is a big disadvantage for the battlefield that requires strict coordination.So everyone in the army can practice two, but almost no one knows martial arts!Seeing that the scene has become chaotic, and now is not the time to worry about intelligence mistakes, Qi Bohan directly drew out his long sword and started fighting with the Hun general!

Seeing this, more than a dozen soldiers brought by Qi Bohan immediately surrounded the two of them.They are all veterans who are good at using guns, and they cooperate with each other tacitly.Moreover, everyone watched Qi Bohan grow up, and knew a thing or two about his martial arts. From time to time, he took the time to stab the Hun general, and soon the Hun general was covered with large and small scars.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the general of the Xiongnu suddenly made a fake move, which tricked Qi Bohan into taking half a step back. After gaining a space, he suddenly put his hand to his mouth and blew a very loud whistle!

Qi Bohan's pupils shrank, and he immediately realized that he was calling for reinforcements, and he had to make a quick decision!

Qi Bohan made a gesture to the soldiers, and the encirclement immediately narrowed down a lot.The generals of the Xiongnu were inevitable, and Qi Bohan no longer tied his hands and feet to ensure that he would not be injured.If you don't try your best, Ning'an's army will suffer heavy losses when the reinforcements arrive!In contrast, it is not so important for Tao Jianran to be angry, so go back and spend more time coaxing him!

After making up his mind, Qi Bohan's eyes flashed coldly, and the moves he used were a little stronger than before, and he opened and closed without defending!

The pressure on the Hun generals suddenly doubled, and the sword dance became a little dull.Qi Bohan was anxious in his heart, and he pushed forward without giving in.

After the two of you came and went with me for a few moves, suddenly, the Xiongnu general slowed down, revealing a huge flaw!Qi Bohan didn't want to think too much, and directly attacked.

wrong!It's a trap!

Qi Bohan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly wanted to get away, but the inertia of his body couldn't be controlled by him at all!

There was a cruel smile on the blood-stained face of the general of the Xiongnu. The flaw he sold was quickly retracted, his wrist was twisted to an unbelievable angle, and the tip of the knife stabbed straight at Qi Bohan's heart!
