Through the troubled times and famine, I just want to farm peacefully

Compared with Longtan, the situation in Xihe County is completely different.

Lieutenant General Li is very cautious in his actions and never underestimates his opponents. He is able to kill the Japanese and seize the Xihe Iron Mine. Even the skilled Captain Cai was defeated by this group of people a few years ago. They are no ordinary people.

No matter how talented he is or how careful he is, the gap in strength is huge after all. How could he be the opponent that Yun Ye and Yun Yi had really fought on the battlefield?

Finally, after the fifth attack, Lieutenant General Li was killed on the spot by Yun San. Seeing their leader killed, his soldiers fled in panic.

At that time, more than half of the two thousand soldiers had been lost.

Led by other young players, they returned empty-handed.

Lin Yinan, who had just received the good news from Xihe, stood on the city wall, looking at the brown marks left by blood outside the city gate, without a single ripple in his heart.

This time, the Yu family's troops who attacked Longtan and Xihe were defeated. It doesn't matter whether they were too strong or their opponents were too weak.

One day, affordable salt will be available.

She dared to guarantee that these noble families who were feeding on the blood of the common people would surely live a wonderful life in the future.

When Yun Mo came out of the prisoner camp, he saw Lin Yinan standing on the city wall. Her back was straight and resolute. The cold wind blew up her hair and clothes, giving her an otherworldly aura.

"Anan, I've been looking for you everywhere. It's cold up there, why are you standing here in the wind?"

Lin Yinan stared at him from afar, standing there motionless, quietly waiting for him to come closer.

Yun Mo stood beside her, and the two of them were very close. When the wind blew, a few strands of her hair brushed around his neck.

His eyes darkened, and he unconsciously lowered his voice and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Lin Yinan gestured for him to look at the dark red bloodstains on the official road.

"It won't be long before Dragon Pond becomes lively again."

"Go back and ask the soldiers to clean it up." Yun Mo understood what she meant.

Lin Yinan moved his ears slightly and clearly heard the painful cries in the wounded camp.

He didn't go to see it, so he asked Yun Mo, "Are the soldiers seriously injured?"

Yun Mo held his forehead with his hand, his face suddenly became gloomy, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "Our own people are only slightly injured, and those who are howling are the wounded left behind by the Yu family. They have never suffered such hardships, and they keep making trouble all day long."

"Since they are so ungrateful, let's send them to Xihe to mine. People need to be taught a lesson before they behave themselves. They are in need of manpower over there, so there is no need to be lenient."

?The howling was mixed with shouting and cursing. It seemed that those who worked for the Yu family were definitely not good people.

When the two men got down from the city wall, they saw the villagers who had been taking shelter in the city, walking out of the city in groups of three or five, carrying their bags.

They originally thought it would be a tough battle that would take a long time, but they didn't expect the crisis to be resolved so quickly.

"Lord City Lord!"

The villagers who saw her stopped and saluted her.

A woman took out some dried vegetables and homemade cakes she had made and tried to give them to her.

Lin Yinan quickly stepped aside and said to them, "I appreciate your kindness. You can keep the products. If you grow too much this year, you can take them to Longtan Grain and Oil Store. We will take whatever you have."

"The city lord really has a kind heart!"

"The danger is over. Let's all go back. It's almost time to prepare for spring ploughing."

Everyone has to rely on their own two legs to walk, and it takes a lot of time to travel with the family.

"City Lord, all the eggs I exchanged last time have hatched into chicks. When they grow up, I'll catch one for you to try."

An elderly woman lifted the straw curtain of a backpack on her back, revealing five palm-sized fluffy chicks.

Lin Yinan looked at the wrinkles on her face, his expression softened, and he said with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait."

When she returned to the county government office, everyone was waiting for her in the meeting room.

Everyone thought she was going to give a summary of the conflict, and they all looked at her expectantly.

Lin Yinan glanced at everyone, then turned to Lin Qingxiang and said, "Uncle Qingxiang, please bring the blueprints of the villa and the completed house over here."

Lin Qingxiang didn't understand what she was going to do, so he got up and went back to their construction team's office to get the blueprints.

The blueprint was quickly brought over, and he said, "This is a copy. The original is still hanging on the wall of the office."

She was the one who taught them to draw this blueprint. When they opened it, they could see the layout and size of each house, just like a modern floor plan.

The pictures were very clear and Lin Yinan could see them clearly when he opened them.

She said, "Let someone draw a few later."

Then she handed the drawings to Wu Xingwang.

"Uncle Wu, take a look. Longtan will be bustling in a few days. You and your son will be responsible for attracting investment in the county."

Wu Xingwang smiled and nodded, "I will definitely not disappoint the city lord's expectations."

"It might be quite busy then, so Uncle Wu, while there is still time, please look for those talented young people and guide and teach them," said Lin Yinan.

Wu Xingwang sat on a chair, his narrowed eyes gleaming with light and his mouth grinning almost to his ears.

"Yes, yes. Some time ago, I picked ten young men, half of whom are literate. My old bones are not strong enough, so I will rely on them in the future."

Lin Yinan pursed his lips and smiled, "Let them do the running errands, and you have to sit back and watch."

Wu Xingwang is a smart man. Now that Longtan has developed, the strength of the two of them is too weak.

After spending so much time with Lin Yinan, he knew that she liked to lead a team when doing things.

Just like the planting training team cultivated by Lin Shuo, the construction team of Lin Qingxiang, and the training of troops by the Yun brothers, they are all teamwork. Naturally, he must put aside his selfishness and cultivate their own business team as soon as possible.

If Lin Yinan knew about this, he would definitely throw the words "If you don't know how to lead a team, you'll just have to work yourself to death" in his face.

From leading a team in his previous life to being the lord of a city in this life, Lin Yinan knows very well that as an excellent leader, he only needs to build a good management team, set strategic goals, and lead the team without deviating from the established track.

When hiring people, they prioritize the most capable ones, regardless of their status or background.

Regardless of past and present lives, she herself is strong enough. If anyone disobeys her, she will beat him until he submits.

Then, she discussed with everyone the reward policy for the soldiers going into battle.

"In this case, doesn't it mean that we have to give rewards every time there is a task?"

Lin Yiheng was a little puzzled, because the food and wages they paid to the soldiers every month were already generous enough, and if they wanted additional rewards, the county government's treasury would be short of money.

Lin Yinan affirmed, "Yes! They joined the army for money. Receiving awards for meritorious service can enhance the soldiers' sense of honor and pride. Without such rewards, the soldiers will become lazy over time."

Yun Mo kept looking at her, his eyes seemed to be filled with countless stars, and a warm current passed through his heart.

He remembered that when he was at Yanmen Pass, his grandfather and father would write to the court at the end of every year, hoping that the court would distribute winter clothes and food wages to the soldiers on time and in sufficient quantity.

But every year the soldiers' food and wages were withheld for no reason, and their winter clothes were so thin that they could not keep out the cold. Once winter was over, more than 10% of the soldiers would freeze to death.

"That's right. From this battle with the Yu family, we can see that in just half a year, the level of our soldiers is still quite good." Yun Mo said.

Since the last bandit suppression campaign, there has been a contrast and the soldiers have been training hard every day.
