Chapter 161 Chapter 160

The time is long, and it is another year of autumn and winter, and everything sprouts.

In Wuhuan City, the three-meter wall is thick but low.

Tens of thousands of laborers rushed to pour the inner and outer city walls before the heavy snowfall. Now these city walls have been well maintained, except for the bamboo cages that are half a meter high and penetrated into the concrete, which are a bit of an eyesore, they already have the appearance of a solid wall.

After Zhang Qi returned to Wuhuan, he built thousands of four-meter-long iron rods. By tapping these iron rods to vibrate the concrete evenly distributed, the thousands of iron rods consumed a lot, but fortunately these things can If it is used repeatedly, even if it is not needed in the future, it can be melted down to make others.

It has been several months since Zhang Qi returned to Wuhuan, and now it is spring, the weather is getting warmer, and the ice and snow are melting.

Last winter, Wuhuan and Xianbei were very good. No one died of freezing or starvation.

The hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass promised by Zhang Yi arrived as scheduled, and with the continuous supply of tofu, bean flour and fish from Xianbei, Wuhuan's population of 20 managed to survive the winter.

The weather has warmed up, and things that cannot be done in winter are now beginning one after another.

The inner and outer city walls were fenced and fixed with logs, and the mud wall in the middle was being rolled back and forth by countless people dragging stone rollers with strong horses.

Everything is in full swing.

However, Daxing'anling is more lively than Wuhuan, and so are the ferocious beasts in the mountains.

Xianbei Wuhuan mobilized herdsmen to form a hunting team, and shot and killed the ferocious jackals in the Greater Khingan Mountains along the way. The herdsmen in the tribe were safe, and the skin and flesh of the wild animals could meet their daily needs.

The tigers and eagles attacked the two armies and returned to the camp, Wuhuan's defensive strength increased greatly, but Zhang Qi did not just idle them like this. After Wang Li was transferred back from Xianbei by him, the two armies took turns to go to the east of the northeast and plundered wantonly. Fuyu and Sushen.

Compared with the Xiongnu Han Dynasty, these two branches are a bit too easy to bully. If they were not few and scattered, they would have perished tens of hundreds of years earlier.

The Huben army has already set off, carrying enough food and grass, and they will not come back if they do not roam the Northeast Plain for half a year.

In Wuhuanzhong, as the three thousand young children who had been riding and chopping grew up, after Zhang Qi brought out a thousand people, the whole Wuhuan was on the right track.

The homing pigeons flew south and trained in the riding and hacking world for several years. In the winter, Zhang Qi brought the pigeons out of the riding and hacking world to form a sense of homeland, and then established a pigeon communication network between Liaodong and Wuhuan.

With the help of the carrier pigeons, Zhang Qi's acquisition of information is faster. The next step is to let these carrier pigeons gradually spread to the entire five frontier counties along the footsteps of weaving the net.

The dock has already been built. Relying on the convenience of the northeast water system and the abundance of various materials, in two or three months, the first three-masted sailing ship will come out to the outside world.

Different from the dockyard in the world of riding and hacking, which only has 300 people, Zhang Qi has high hopes for sea-going ships, so after the shipwrights came out, he organized more than 3000 people to go to the dockyard as apprentices.

Because no one hides their secrets, these apprentices have made rapid progress in half a year. In Yang Disheng's words, they have been able to independently manufacture small and medium-sized boats suitable for river basins.

This is also a good thing. With small and medium-sized river boats, fishing will be more convenient. The population of such a large river system in the Northeast is less than 60 to [-].

Everything is waiting for the ice in the river basin to melt. At that time, sea ships enter the sea, river boats fish and transport, and everything is moving towards the blueprint planned by Zhang Qi.

West Liaoning.

"General, it's time for us to go back. It's almost a year since I came out."

The 6000-strong Youyi Army plundered a village in western Liaoning to survive the harsh winter.

From six hundred to six thousand, Hu Shui has gained a lot in this small year.

In addition to soldiers and horses, there are also wealth and bad reputation.

For such a bandit of Jiuhuan and Liaoxi, it is impossible for Liaoxi to know.

But what can they do, they can't beat them, even if they can beat them, they can't catch up.

There is no way, the counties in western Liaoning have to spend money to keep them safe.

In this way, Hu Shui and the others became even more vicious.

Biting a piece of mutton, Hu Shui wiped the grease all over his face: "Go back? It's not the time yet, the bad reputation we have accumulated over time is an excellent reputation for the king, wait a minute, I have already asked brother The letter has been sent back to Wuhuan, we only need to wait for your majesty to come with the general situation, then it is time for us to go back."

The lieutenant who was asking the question just now nodded his head: "A general is a general, think far!"

"Hahaha, you bastard, go away, you still dare to tease me, come, come, come and practice with me!"

After all, Hu Shui threw the mutton directly to an ordinary soldier, and amidst the sound of the latter eating, Hu Shui raised his knife and practiced with the school lieutenant.

After spending so much time wandering outside, Hu Shui did not miss the training of the Youyi Army, and now the newly joined prairie people are looking good under the training of these people.

Wuhuan.

Zhang Qi, who received the news from Hu Shui, laughed unkindly. Why didn't he realize that this guy had never been involved in personnel affairs before. In reality, he ransacked the two departments of Zuo Wang, and now he is occupying land in western Liaoning. A talent for robbery.

After laughing, he called softly: "Come here, let Ying mobilize thousands of soldiers and horses to follow me to Liaodong."

"promise!"

The Wang Tent is no longer called the Wang Tent, and people in Wuhuan are not idle during the winter months. The concrete cannot be started due to the weather, but the wood and stone buildings have no such influence.

Houses made of wood and stone are located on the site that once belonged to the Wuhuan Royal Court, and the scales are well arranged.

The most majestic among them is Zhang Qi's residence. Various decorations inlaid this wooden and stone building with extraordinary magnificence, and the furniture was made by craftsmen with a lot of thought, just to make Zhang Qiqi comfortable.

There was a sound of 'No! '

Not long after, the female soldier came back with a token, raised it above her head and handed it to Zhang Qi: "General Ying has an order, and he is heading to the school grounds, and we can start in four quarters of an hour!"

Zhang Qin let out a hum, and took the token back. His eyes did not leave the bamboo slips in his hand. Zhang Yi gave him a lot of books last year. He just likes to read the bamboo slips.

Three quarters of an hour later, the female soldier woke up Zhang Qi in a low voice. The latter got up and put down the bamboo slips, and then went out.

Qianqi Juanyun came to Liaodong on white mist.

The guards of the Great Wall already knew Zhang Qi's identity. They were Zhang Yi's Liaodong Army, so they would not stop Zhang Qi.

However, they didn't open the pass, but watched Zhang Qi and the others cross the Great Wall with planks.

Zhang Qi laughed a few times, and then asked people to leave a few jars of white wine. Liaodong is close to the northeast, and the temperature in winter is not high. These Great Wall defenders are shivering with cold every day and do not want to leave the fire.

Keeping wine has become Zhang Qi's habit, don't underestimate this small favor, one day, he can also play his role.
