Riding and chopping: Overlord of the Han and Hungarians

Chapter 409 408. Zhao Guo
White smoke accompanied the roar.

The steam train connected to roller steel wheels moved forward slowly.

Under the steel wheel.

The asphalt and sand poured out from the mixing furnace are fully mixed together.

This is laid on the roadbed by technicians.

The weather in early spring is still cold.

These asphalt mixtures also cool very quickly.

So technicians here are laying the paving, and the steam train is also starting over there.

As for the road workers, they continued to build the roadbed leading to Yanmen.

In addition to this group of technicians here, there is also a construction team over there in Taiyuan City laying the paving stones. When the two teams meet, it will mean the completion of the first phase of the Taiyan Straight Road.

By then, villages and towns can also be planned on both sides of the road to utilize a large amount of land.

The importance of roads goes without saying.

They are the economic lifeblood of a dynasty.

The development of roads means that goods can travel smoothly between many places, and it can also make a family rich.

The cooled asphalt is smoothed and solidified under the steel wheels of the road. When they are completely cooled, an asphalt road section is completely completed.

Later, some people were sent to mark the middle of the road with lime slime, so that an eight-meter road with four left and four right sides could be opened for use.

The road is not wide, but it is enough for this era and even for hundreds of years to come.

Compared with cement roads, such asphalt roads are undoubtedly more suitable for vehicles and horses to pass. When the roads are completely clear, the cavalry in Liaodi will have a high-speed channel directly into Chang'an.

The flow of materials will also include an additional land route in addition to the sea route.

It is convenient for both the people and the army.

Except the construction team here in Taiyuan started work.

As the weather warms up in spring, construction teams in other states and counties have gradually begun work.

Zhao country.

The large ships passing by attract the attention of countless local children and adults.

The concrete port that was leveled and poured that winter could accommodate hundreds of large ships at a time.

Without exception.

These ships are loaded with fine grain seeds.

The Handan City watershed, which was turned into a distribution center, instantly created countless jobs.

Large ships need to be loaded and unloaded.

Loading and unloading requires a lot of manual labor.

For the local people in Zhao State, this is a generous job that is enough to support a family of four or five.

As long as you work hard, one day's wages will be enough to buy enough food for the family for several days at the grain store opened by the new government.

Even, there is enough spare money to buy fish.

The white meat that came off the big ship was ridiculously fat.

After buying it and cooking it at home, the fat you get will be comparable to what you have eaten in the past year.

With enough oil and water, the consumption of food will also be reduced. The extra money saved can buy some new clothes for the eldest son and daughter of the family who are waiting to be married before the new year.

These visible good things were brought to them by their son-in-law, King Zhao.

The entire people of Zhao State respect this uncle of Zhao State from the bottom of their hearts.

Ever since their uncle married the Princess of Zhao, their King Zhao, who used to go to the streets to make money, never came out to disturb the people again.

He devoted his whole mind to the great cause of contacting princes and kings from all over the world to discuss important issues together.

speak up.

It’s true that I haven’t seen King Zhao’s ceremonial guard for a long time.

But who cares.

Today's life is more happy and stable than before.

They really don’t know who King Zhao is.

And the King of Zhao in the mouth of the people of Zhao State.

Nowadays, they are not in as good a mood as the common people.Since the two thousand Tiger Guards from Liaodong entered the palace, the king of Zhao is no longer his.

Although life is still luxurious, and the level of luxury is far greater than before.

But being trapped in Zhao Wang Palace, he understood that he was under house arrest.

As for why he is still alive, it is probably the only benefit that his father-in-law's status has brought him.

From the lookout overlooking half of Handan, Liu Pengzu let out a dull sigh.

"Zhang Qi. So calculating and ambitious!"

"This is the world with the surname Liu"

"Haha. Hahaha, Liu Che! I can't sit in that seat, and you can't even think of sitting there for a long time! Look at my son-in-law, half a piece of Chinese land can't satisfy his appetite!"

On the smooth lacquered wooden railings, the veins in Liu Pengzu's hands were bulging, which was very obvious.

"Your Majesty, it's windy today, so it's best not to stay in this high place for a long time."

The bright silver armor fits the strong body very well.

A young player who was no older than 22 spoke softly behind Liu Pengzu.

"I know, I'm sorry to bother General Zhao."

Liu Pengzu turned around, and the resentment on his face completely disappeared, replaced by a smile that made people feel like spring breeze.

"General Zhao, please take me back to the palace. The palace is very upset. I haven't heard the story of General Zhao's bloody battle on the Juyanze battlefield for two or three days."

"Haha, since the king wants to hear it, I can talk to the king on the road."

The young general is also gentle and elegant.

He is a bloody brave general who rushed down from the bloody battlefield of Juyanze.

At that time, he was just a village commander, but he led his soldiers to defend the siege of the Qing Army.

Until a great victory on a large-scale battlefield.

after the war.

He was dug out of the pile of corpses.

It is hard to imagine that such a brave man would become more like a scholar after going to the battlefield.

With outstanding performance that day, he was recommended to Zhang Qi by Wang Li and was regarded as a key training target. He successively obtained military exploits from the commander of the village, served as commander of Qu, Sima, and now as a school captain, stepping into the path of a general. .

Lead two thousand soldiers and horses and control the Zhao Palace of Zhao State.

This year's life as a guard in the Zhao Palace has undoubtedly made him more settled.

He studied a large number of military books and classics.

This is what Zhang Qi meant. Without exception, the people he trained will be the pillars of the army in the future. Although they are brave enough to fight, they can only end up becoming generals like eagles.

What Zhang Qi wants is a handsome man like Wang Li.

When it comes to rushing and killing, who can be better than him? Zhang Qi is now the leader of the military situation.

No one in the world can be more brave than him.

But what he wants is a general who can plan the overall situation.

With the birth of firearms, the countdown to the end of the rush has entered.

He was looking forward to a military strategist who could rival Han Xin and command millions of troops like an arm.

And in this one.

This young general named Zhao Yun is the person he is looking forward to most.

The king's palace is now.

Zhao Yun stopped, still looking warm and gentle.

But Liu Pengzu, who looked into his eyes, knew deeply.

In the depths of this gentle and elegant painting, there is a ferocious beast that can choose people and devour them at any time.

"General Zhao stayed. Today I heard about General Zhao's deeds again. The admiration in my heart is even greater. I wonder if General Zhao would like to have a banquet with me?"

"I may disappoint the king. Military regulations stipulate that it is inconvenient for me to drink alcohol."

"It's a pity, a pity."

After being rejected, Liu Pengzu shook his head and sighed at the pity, while walking into the magnificent prison.
