## "One Hundred Thousand Miles of the Tang Dynasty: A commoner used potatoes and sweet potatoes to feed an iron-blooded army" > Zhang Chu fell into the barren mountain and opened his eyes again, and the loess from Hedong Road covered his body. > The undercurrents of Chang'an City are surging, aristocratic families control the lifeblood of salt and grain, and the corn in the common people's bowls is mixed with tree bark. > He silently took out the potatoes and sweet potatoes from his arms and planted the first seedling under Li Shimin's surprised eyes. > When the locust plague blocks out the sun, thousands of miles east of the river are starved to death, but the green ridges of Zhangchu fields are surging. > When the cavalry crushed the Turkic king's tent at dawn, the cooked sweet potatoes in the expeditionary army's food bag were still steaming... In Hedong Road in the seventh year of Zhenguan, the scorching sun burned the cracked loess. Zhang Chu struggled to get up from his dizziness, and a few muddy potatoes and sweet potatoes rolled out from his burlap lapel - these were the only "relics" left in his wilderness adventure bag after the college entrance examination. Looking around, the city walls of Taiyuan Prefecture in the distance are twisted in the heat wave. The farmers in the fields are as stooped as shrimps, and the millet porridge in their bowls is so thin that they look sad. After all, the prosperous string songs of Chang'an could not penetrate the Taihang Mountains and reach this barren land on the east bank of the Yellow River. --- ### **A seed breaks the deadlock** In the Puzhou Official Station of the Hedong Provincial Government Office, Li Shimin tapped the secret report on the case with his fingertips: "The locusts are gradually rising in Hebei Province and may become a major disaster this year." The whole house was silent. Cui Yushi, who was born in a wealthy family, sneered: "The locusts are a punishment from heaven. Your Majesty should examine your own morality..." Before he could finish his words, Yi Cheng reported urgently: "A piece of cloth clothed with Chu presents auspiciousness to the gate!" While everyone was laughing, Zhang Chu held up the potatoes stained with soil and said, "The yield of this potato is forty stones per mu, and it is drought and insect resistant. If it is planted all over Hedong, why should we be afraid of the locust god?" He peeled off the roasted sweet potatoes, and the golden flesh smelled sweet, and Li Shimin's eyes suddenly brightened. Three days later, a banner of "Envoy to Encourage Farmers" was erected in the wasteland of Shibazhou in Hedong. Zhang Chuhuai, holding the gold medal bestowed by the emperor, cut the potato cubes into thousands of pieces and buried them in the scorched earth. ### **Green crops cut off the chain of famine** In the summer of the eighth year of Zhenguan, a swarm of locusts that covered the sky and sun rushed towards Guanzhong. The fertile fields of Hedong Road are filled with strange green waves - potato branches and leaves are as stiff as shields, and tubers are still growing wildly in the soil under the wounds gnawed by locusts. When the various states urgently reported that "the warehouses were about to run out", Zhang Chu commanded the convoy to march into Beijing: one hundred thousand stones of dried sweet potatoes were built into the Great Red Wall, and the freshly ground potato powder in Taiyuan Prefecture was as white as silver! "This is not God's blessing for the Tang Dynasty, but Zhang Qing's human power to conquer Heaven's work!" Li Shimin stood in front of Liangshan Mountain and gave Zhang Chu his saber. In the darkness, the sound of calculations among the family members stopped abruptly. The wealthy families who once monopolized the rice market found that the common people were willing to exchange their ancestral bronze mirrors for a bag of sweet potatoes—the sweetness and glutinousness of the new grain had already penetrated the stomachs of the Tang Dynasty. ### **Cavalry trampled thousands of miles of dust** As the desert wind and sand rolled over the military tent, Li Jing pointed at the sheepskin map and frowned: "The Turkic royal court is thousands of miles away from here, and the grain road is cut off..." The tent curtain was suddenly opened, and Zhang Chu walked in with frost and snow on his shoulders: "The general will escort five thousand trucks of military grain to the camp!" When the tarpaulin was lifted, the cooked sweet potatoes and potato flour cakes were steaming. The cavalrymen rushed for seven days with dried potatoes in their arms. When the horses' hooves crushed Jieli Khan's golden tent, the food the soldiers took out from their breastplates was still warm. On the day when the good news came from Chang'an, Zhang Chuzheng was squatting next to the salt pond in Hedong to guide the improvement of salt drying methods. Faced with the impeachment of "the master of great achievements" from the Yushitai, he only hung the sword given by Li Shimin in the hall. The salt officials looked at the tassel on the handle and whispered: "Master Zhang's heart has never been about the court..." --- At the celebration banquet of Jiuchong Palace, Li Shimin drunkenly pointed to the huge territory map in front of the palace and asked Zhang Chu: "Ai Qing, where should the territory of the Tang Dynasty be expanded?" Zhang Chu bowed and picked up the lacquer plate in front of the jade case. The roasted potatoes in the plate split into golden gaps, and the sweet fragrance filled the carved beams and painted buildings. "Your Majesty," his fingertips traced across the vast blank space to the west of Congling, "everywhere the sweet potato fragrance floats - it is all Tang soil!" The fast horse outside the palace galloped through Suzaku Street, and the wheat seeds and sweet potatoes in the saddlebags were flowing to the wilderness farther away along the post road.
