Chapter 279 (2/2)

Then calculate the consumption of soldiers.

A soldier eats a jin of corn every day, 30 jin in January, 360 Jin in a year, 36 kg in 100 soldiers, and 3.6 million Jin in 10000 soldiers.

However, the output of 100000 mu of cultivated land in Linshui county is only 2.5 million jin of corn, half of which is 1.25 million jin, plus 1.385 million jin of wheat and 500000 Jin of soybeans, which is less than 3 million Jin in total.

That is to say, the grain tax of Linshui county can't even support 10000 soldiers.

But now there are 40000 mouths, and he has to eat with song Yan. After such a careful calculation, he realized the seriousness of the problem. It seems that after the 30000 troops of ancient min were taken in this time, they had to start the plunder war, otherwise the soldiers would be hungry.

”By the way, how much food is there in the county town?” Song Yan asked again.

”Less than a million liters.” Shendu's expression is solemn.

”So little?” Song Yan frowned tighter. For 40000 soldiers and horses, one million liters of grain can last for up to one month.

After Shendu goes to work, song Yan calls Zhao Yan and asks him how much food he has in the army.The answer made song Yan more and more urgent, and the surplus grain in the army was only enough to support him for seven days.

That is to say, he has only 37 days. Beyond that time, the army will have no food to eat.

Heart read a move, song Yan took out the map of Shenzhou continent that he drew by himself.

Linshui county is also a frontier city, with desert in the north and Heiyan County in the south. Heiyan county is the territory of Chu state, Yi'an County in the west, which is the territory of Zhao state, fan County in the East, which is also the county city of Zhao state.

”Do you know the deployment of troops and horses in Yi'an and fan counties?”

Hearing song Yan's inquiry, Zhao Yan thought, ”there are about 6000 people in Yi'an county and 8000 people in fan county.”

”If I give you ten thousand men, how long can you attack Yi'an county or fan county?” Song Yan looks at Zhao Yandao.

Zhao Yan said in a deep voice, ”if you want to attack Yi'an County, the city is three Zhangs high and the moat is five Zhangs deep, you can't break it in a month. Fan county is built in the valley basin, only a thousand people and horses are needed to keep the passage, and ten thousand people and horses can't break it!”

”In this way, you can do some detailed work to sneak into Yi'an and fanjun to find out how much food they have in their storehouse! Let's move on to the next step! ”

”Yes!”

When Zhao Yan retreats, song Yan goes to the courtyard where he lives. At the same time, he rubs his head. There are so many troubles in managing a county. If you want to manage a country, you don't know what kind of tiredness it will be. No wonder those so-called Mingjun don't live long. There are so many worries.

Just entering the courtyard, song Yan found that the prince Jiang Dan was squatting under the supervision of two girls in Chunhe Qiuxiang, and both of them were holding a whip. Once his action was not standard, he would be whipped.

At first, Chunhe Qiuxiang didn't dare to start because Jiang Dan was the prince, but after being scolded several times by song Yan, he could only smoke hard.

And after they smoked ginger pill, they found that they all had a kind of inexplicable pleasure in their hearts. Just ask, how many people dare to whip the prince with a whip.

As for Jiang Dan, he didn't hate spring lotus and autumn fragrance, but he hated song inkstone half dead.

”See the general!”

At the sight of song inkstone, spring lotus and autumn fragrance gave up Jiang Dan to welcome him.

Compared with a few days ago, spring lotus and autumn fragrance look much better, mainly because they have meat to eat every meal, and song Yan also washed their hair and marrow, and taught them a set of skills.

Over the past few days, both women have developed inner strength. Comparatively speaking, Qiuxiang has a higher qualification.
