Chapter 174

The setting sun finally sank behind the mountains, and a few stars appeared on the horizon.

Lulong fortress blocked the captain's camp.

Zhao Yun stood in front of the map.

It was a camp tent with simple furnishings. There was a camp bed propped up against the wall, with a thin quilt and a pillow box neatly stacked on top.

There is a weapons rack beside the bed, with armor with shiny armor plates hanging on it, a silver gun raised up, and a black goose feather sword with a black scabbard hanging on the side.

Apart from that, there is only a desk and two benches.

The army promoted internal service regulations, and as the commander-in-chief, Zhao Yun naturally led by example and took care of the internal service himself.

His tent is just like himself, clean and orderly.

In addition to his martial prowess, it was also his simple, orderly and orderly character that convinced everyone in the army.

The candlestick with a triangular stand standing on the side is just wooden, exuding the unique fragrance of wood, without even a layer of paint.

There was a candle as thick as an arm standing on the candlestick, and the firelight hit the map, creating colorful patches on it.

This map was written by Zhao Xi.

Like Yan Zhi who is busy at both ends, after the Lulongsai project officially started, he also kept running between two places.

It was precisely because of his busyness that everything in Lulongsai went so smoothly.

Zhao Yun meditated in front of the map for a long time, then took out a small red flag made of paper from the small cloth bag hanging on the shelf where the map was hung, and gently pasted it on the map.

Regarding the defense against the barbarian invaders, they had several meetings to discuss the matter when they gathered in Guzhu.

As Lulongsai is a place of resistance and resistance, construction is naturally the first priority.

But we still need to be on guard against small groups of Huqi rushing in around the mountain, or heading south from Feirupai.

The checkpoints built along the rivers and mountains, the Rongtai beside the pass, and the entire defense line on the north side of Lulong were covered by his eyes and ears.

After Lulongsai, the vast majority of the civilian population will retreat back to Lulong County and the basic manor Wubao including Lone Bamboo Manor.

Reserve a highly mobile ranger to defeat enemies in the wild and rescue them.

After that, the Lulongsai Pass will continue to be reinforced, and together with the mountain outposts, it will form a huge defensive fortification.

Even with such magical objects as cement, this is still a huge project.

Zhao Yun didn't know why Gongsun Yan was so firm and persistent in believing that the enemy was in the north, but since she was uneasy and confused, he had to do something for her.

Zhao Yun's fingers lightly slid across the map.

As long as they hold on to Lulongsai and use their troops and the city defense equipment provided by their wives, it is not difficult to guard the safety of Lulong County.

Thinking of Gongsun Yan's worried look, as if facing a formidable enemy, a smile flashed in Zhao Yun's eyes.

It's not difficult to keep him safe, but what's difficult is how to reassure her and stop showing such a worried look.

Zhao Yun clicked on the map, winter, stay until winter...

"Zilong." Zhao Yun, who was deep in thought, was suddenly awakened by a cry.

It was Zhao Xi who was outside the tent.

"Uncle." Zhao Yun hurriedly walked over, lifted the door curtain, and welcomed Zhao Xi in.

Zhao Xi was still dressed in stone blue cloth, with a few wisps of beard on his chin. Due to the fatigue of running around, his face seemed to be a little older, but it seemed that he had not changed at all.

His eyes are deep and his eyes are smiling.

"The light is dark. If you want to read a book or a map, light a few more candles." Zhao Xi glanced at the candlestick next to the map and reminded, "Don't hurt your eyes." "Yes." Zhao Yun respectfully invited Zhao Xi to come. Sit behind the desk.

He and Gongsun Cheng lost their relationship and regarded him as a father and brother. Zhao Yun was not very old when he lost his father and brother. Although Zhao Xi had a mysterious origin, after getting along with him, to Zhao Yun, he was no different from a real uncle.

After hearing Zhao Xi's reminder, Zhao Yun immediately obediently found two candles and lit them. The tent suddenly became much brighter.

"Come." Zhao Xi waved to him, placed the bundle in his hand on the table, and gently untied it. There was a lacquered food box inside.

Opening it, there was a box of steamed buns packed inside.

The noble family pays great attention to food, and the family recipes are kept secretly in the hands of the family's wives. They are as much a family treasure as the family's collection of books, and they are a capital to show off.

But when Gongsun Yan comes, he can't let himself be deprived of even a steamed bun.

In addition, the number of water mills and water mills for pounding and shelling rice has increased. Now the eating habits in Lulong are slowly changing.

After the cook in Guzhu Village made steamed buns with a little instruction, it was natural that various kinds of steamed buns and dumplings appeared.

"Eat quickly."

Zhao Xi pushed the food box in front of Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun was not polite to him either. He got up and poured some water into the copper pot in the corner of the room to wash his hands. Then he started chatting with Zhao Xi while eating steamed buns.

Zhao Xi came to Lulong this time because young men from various wealthy families in Lulong County who had agreed to be seconded came to Lulongsai.

There are also armed tribes captured in Wubao Manor that were destroyed by Zhao Yun.

All these people crowded into Lulongsai. Worried that Zhao Yun was too busy and would be distracted, Gongsun Yan simply sent a letter to invite Zhao Xi to Lulongsai to sort out everything.

The Guzhu Manor, which is almost on the right track, is guarded by Zhou Jing and Zhang Ze with the help of Tian Kai.

At this time, Zhao Xi had nothing to do, so he took Baozi to see Zhao Yun and chatted with him like an uncle and nephew.

Lu Longsai, which has undergone great changes since Zhao Yun took over, has a completely new look after Zhao Xi came.

When implementing the system formulated by Gongsun Yan, Zhao Xi could understand Gongsun Yan's true intentions without any hindrance.

Not even Zhao Yun can do this.

Moreover, as Zhao Xi comes into contact with more and more people, and the simulation becomes smoother and smoother, he will be more proactive in doing things and checking for deficiencies.

Zhao Xi smiled like an elder and watched Zhao Yun eat a box of buns. Just as he was about to say something else, the voice of Zhao Xi's servant came from outside the door.

"Mr. Zhao, the patient in the medical point is awake."

Zhao Yun was stunned, what kind of patient?
Zhao Xi straightened his face, straightened his clothes, and stood up.

"Zilong, come with me."

Zhao Yun didn't know why, but since Zhao Xi said so, he had no objection.

Several personal followers near Zhao Yun's camp also followed.

All the way through the military camp, Zhao Yun was stunned when he came to a place.

This is a labor camp, which contains the prisoners who were originally exiled from Luronce and the restless captives. Why did my uncle come here?

I just heard what the servant said, are you here to visit the patient?
Just as they were thinking about it, some sergeants came forward to investigate. Naturally, they knew the general Zhao Yun, and also knew their mentor Zhao Xi. However, the rule that no one was exempt from was set by Zhao Yun himself.

The formal procedures followed to check the identity and purpose of Zhao Xi and Zhao Yun before they were released.

We walked with torches all the way to a long house. The house was very quiet, and we could smell the scent of Lysol and decoction from a distance.

At this time, Zhao Xicai stopped, and the orange light of the torch shone on his face. He whispered to Zhao Yun: "There is a person lying here, who can be used by Lady Yan."
