Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

From Juancheng to the east, due to the big river, it enters Shandong and reaches Weihai Port in the far east, a total of [-] miles.Zhuge Liang spent the thousand and five hundred miles on horseback.Changed horses at the post station, galloped at full speed, and traveled nearly [-] miles a day.

Rao Zhuge Liang could ride a horse, but riding for three or four hours a day made him feel that his bones were loose, and the skin on his inner thigh was worn out, and it was hot and painful when he touched water.

What was even more frightening was that because he hadn't fully grown in stature and was light in weight, he was almost thrown out several times under extreme speed, but was rescued by a guard named Ji He with a soft whip.Dancing with Death, don't be too exciting!

However, the 12-year-old Xiao Liang could only grit his teeth and persevere. After all, Cao Zi, who was recuperating from a serious injury, also rode his horse for three or four hours a day. When he rested, he could drink medicine while reading official documents.Simply inhuman!

Zhuge Liang fell on the straw mat in the Weihai Medical Hall, hugging his swollen calf, humming.Ji He took a bottle of Yinlian safflower ointment and tried to apply the medicine to this kid.However, Zhuge Liang is such a chicken thief, how could he let the people of the spy department serve him, and in the end it was Lu Meng who took over the leg of his little brother.

The ointment is cool and works very quickly.Zhuge Liang hummed comfortably, and opened his eyes to look at the clouds outside the window.The sky in Weihai is clear and blue, and such a good weather is rare in the Central Plains under the cold current and freezing rain.

The early-maturing winter wheat has been harvested and put into storage, and the large fields under Wubao have been sprinkled with horsegrass and broad bean seeds. In less than a month, these wheat fields will be covered with greenery again, and small pink and purple flowers will bloom.At that time, the [-]-acre fruit forest in Laishan will also have a good harvest, and hundreds of ships will come chasing the lighthouse in Weihai to transport Shandong’s apples overseas: Nandao, Shendao, Dalian, Liudao, and even Sanhan and Cochin.

However, Zhuge Liang and Lu Meng did not have time to see such a grand scene.After only resting for three hours in the Weihai Medical Center, they boarded the Weiyuan at the port before they had time to go to Wubao.The anchor was lifted, the sail was raised, and the giant began to move slowly in the waves.

Two half-grown children stood on the high deck, looking down at the people who were seeing them off at the port.They include farmers with rakes, mountain folk with longbows and calico, women with vegetable baskets, and children in school uniforms.They repeated the same sentence in dialect over and over again, like a huge wave, until the boat sailed far away and the port could no longer be seen clearly, the noisy voice of people seemed to still ring in their ears.

Ah Sheng brushed the corner of his eyes with his sleeve, turned around, left the stern and entered the cabin.

"What are they talking about?" Zhuge Liang asked Ji Hedao.Although this person is not as weird and gloomy as Qin Liu, he is still a baby face who loves to smile, but everyone in the spy department should be an all-rounder in language.

As expected, Ji He knew.

"'Defend Weihai for the sake of our country.'" The baby-faced young man translated, "At the beginning, the Taishi county magistrate said, 'We will defend Weihai to the death for our lord. more important than the land.'

But the people disagreed. They said: "If this land is lost, there will be no medical halls and schools for Weihai people, there will be no harbors and farms for Weihai people, and there will be no justice and laws for Weihai people. There will be no home country for Weihai people. '"

"So it becomes 'defend Weihai for the country'?"

"Yes."

Xiao Liang's curiosity was satisfied, and he dragged his younger brother to the cabin to find the master. "Cao Zi is happy?"

The corners of Ah Sheng's eyes were still red, maybe it was from staying up all night and reading on the road. "I'm happy." She stroked a strand of Zhuge Liang's untied hair, "Seeing them makes me feel that all my hard work is worth it."

"What is a home country?"

"The aspiration of the people, the gathering of the wisdom of the people, is the country."

"Xu County has a prosperous literary style, and Weihai is rich and happy, which one is Cao Zi's home country?" Zhuge Liang leaned forward, "Or both?"

Ah Sheng slowly raised the corners of his mouth: "Xu County and Weihai are just my foreign cities. The place we are going to next is my country."

Young people, have you ever seen a sun-dried salt farm with an annual output of 50 tons, a Nongtunbao with an annual output of [-] jin, and a winter grazing line with flocks of cattle and sheep?Have you ever seen the iron mine city lit up all night, the port of Dalian where thousands of sails gather, and the foothills of Changbai Mountain where kangs are camped together?

This land has a vast border line, from Dalian Port on the seashore to Chishan City on the vast grassland, with a total length of more than 2000 miles, longer than from Juancheng of Cao Cao to Weihai.

By the time they arrived at their destination, the grassland had already been dyed in the colors of autumn. Pieces of herbaceous plants were withered and yellow, and the woods showed patches of red, yellow, and green, or clustered around the top of the mountain outside the city. The exposed rocks, or the reflection of the clear and cold river water, are like a colorful oil painting.

The aid troops led by Xu Rong had repaired the city wall as early as summer.The rocks from the nearby mountains are naturally ocher red because of their high iron content. These rocks are ground into large pieces by sharp steel, glued together with cement, and then supplemented with an appropriate amount of compound soil. Finally, a red "prairie giant" is formed. " shell.

Chishan City, the third large-scale settled city on the Dongmu Line, is rising amid bloody conflicts.

Military facilities were built with the highest priority. Wall stacks, trenches, archery towers, and even the urn city and the inner city were all put into use as soon as they were completed.Then the weather turned cold, and the kang and brick houses became an urgent task.

When Ah Sheng rode his horse into the city, he could see red bricks piled up like hills and small tile kilns burning everywhere.There are also a lot of newly built houses, but the white on the walls is not dry, and they are forced to bake against the charcoal inside the walls, and the water vapor spirals through the eaves.

The human order is orderly.There is a clear distinction between patrolling patrolling, moving bricks moving bricks, and registering registrations.Xu Rong led his personal guards to roam around the busy crowd.

"Brothers, work harder! This winter, everyone in Chishan will live in greenhouses, drink soju, and eat barbecue."

Housing and food are the lingua franca of all ethnic groups, and the surroundings immediately echoed in harmony.

Xu Rong called out to several scout leaders: "I heard that Duke Hua has already arrived in Dalian and is coming this way. You should be vigilant when you take your brothers out on patrol, and don't let the short-sighted Wuhuan people disturb her."

Asheng couldn't help laughing.

As soon as Xu Rong looked up, he saw the "Mr. Hua" who was talking about just now, standing across the street leading a horse.The atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.But some stupid cavalrymen shouted: "General Xu, look, Duke Hua has arrived, so shall we still patrol?"

Xu Rong slapped the kid's helmet and stared: "It's time to work, don't think about being lazy all day long! Go, go, go!"

The little bosses of the scouts scattered.

Xu Rong patted off the plaster on his body before heading towards Ah Sheng. "Your Majesty's speed is amazing," General Xu raised his thumb, "The rapid march is not so fast, don't you come here on the shoulders of Shi Nvxia? Hey, these two young gentlemen are your new disciples, right? , it’s not easy, haha, it looks like I hurt my leg while riding a horse..."

When meeting someone as enthusiastic as Xu Rong, some greetings are indispensable.Zhuge Liang and Lu Meng each received a dagger as a meeting gift.

Then there is the topic.Xu Rong led Ah Sheng and his party to stroll around Chishan City, looking at important strategic points one by one, important tribal leaders talking about the past one by one, and even the tombs of the martyrs during the previous "Chishan Incident", which fell to the citizens in the south of the city on the square.

"Who is responsible for the pension?"

"Girl Yan from the Prosecution Department. She never procrastinates, and it was all done in May."

"En." Ah Sheng nodded. In fact, she had already obtained the relevant report from Ah Shi, but it is always good to ask for verification. "If Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Qianghu who were not from Liaodong died in Chishan defense, their children will be directly naturalized and tax-free for ten years."

"Some, some, have been implemented." Xu Rong hurriedly continued, "My pro-army has taken in a few orphans. May I go and see?"

Ah Sheng waved his hand: "See you at dinner—you let someone burn the wall, but is there enough coal for winter?"

"Here... there is coal from Tongliao, so it can't be cut off... If it is really lacking, I will allocate some from the military supplies, and it will be the same."

"You can't get out of the military supply." A Sheng directly vetoed it, "You have to go to the southern city wall with me this winter, and you can't get out of the military supply."

Xu Rong's pupils shrank, and the word "Could it be" came out from his mouth, and then he suddenly closed his mouth as if realizing something.

"The officials in Chishan are already on their way. These days, they are in charge of the soldiers and the people. Thank you for your hard work." When he said this, he was about to take power from General Xu.

Xu Rong smiled wryly and shook his head: "I'm a rough person, and if I'm not thoughtful in doing things, just don't take offense at me."

A Sheng turned sideways, and the north wind blew the fluff on the collar of her cloak, hitting her jawline that was even thinner due to illness and injury.But she is still beautiful, from her black hair and jade face to the fine lines around her eyes.

"Don't you want to go back to the bustling Central Plains? Leading the brave cavalry is invincible, just like ten years ago." The beauty asked softly, as if she was really ignorant of the world.

Ten years ago, Xu Rong, under Dong Zhuo's command, robbed Luoyang all the way.

"Hahaha, hahahaha." Xu Rong raised his head and laughed loudly. After laughing, he raised his eyebrows and said seriously, "I'll stay here and watch the grassland become prosperous. Central Plains, I'm already scared."

The people there are too complicated, and the struggle there is too tragic.

"You have to go." A Sheng led his horse towards the inner city, "Nian Qi and Zhao Qi are too straightforward, no one will surprise me. Lu Bu surprise you are teasing me, Duan Gong is too old. "

"Who's too old?! Hiccup." A mid-spirited voice came from the inner city wall, and he hiccupped after he finished.

Ah Sheng laughed when he heard this.Grandpa Duan lived to be eighty years old, and he is still an immortal bastard.

"You already have great-grandchildren." A Sheng pulled the young apprentices in front of him as a shield, "Zhuge Liang, the word Kong Ming, the seed of reading that I snatched from the Zhuge family in Langya. Lu Meng, the word I am going to let you always take it .This is a good seedling of the army, if you like it, you can give him a generous meeting gift."

Duan Xi threw away the wine bag, ran to the bottom of the city tower, patted Lu Meng on the shoulder, and then burst out laughing. "Okay, it should be generous. When I'm old, I didn't expect to have this kind of fun, but you're caring girl, and the boys are all jerks." After speaking, he kicked Xu Rong.

The old hooligan's behavior stunned Zhuge Liang, a civilized man.

Xu Rong: ...I don't want to lose face?

"Go to the Central Plains obediently, do you understand?" The old hooligan Duan glanced at him, "Do you think you are really being targeted at the war? Just like Yuan Shao's posture of pressing a million troops to the Yellow River, there is no one in the rear. Even Lu Bu can suppress all the way Surprise attack in the past? I really think highly of him, Yuan Benchu."

Xu Rong:? ? ?

"You call Cao Cao my lord, that's what you are for. The peacemaker between Liaodong and Yanzhou, do you understand? Don't waste the hard work of the second son. Is it easy for the little girl to suffer so much at such a young age?"

"Mr. Duan, I'm almost forty..."

"I have three out of eighty, what's the matter?"

"No...you continue."
