Chapter 364: The Meeting (I)
The infantry was the first to appear, and just by hearing the crisp sound of iron feet hitting the ground, you could know who it was, and now Sun Xiao, like everyone else, thought that a guy like an infantry was simply not a human being. They all thought that the infantryman who had lost one foot, the days of being a cavalry general were over, and the days of fighting on the battlefield were over, but under the suspicious eyes of everyone, the infantry once again stepped onto the war horse with his iron foot, and after a few months, now the infantry's riding skills have once again returned to their previous level, and a new skill has been developed, and he asked the craftsman to sharpen the edge of the iron foot that he remade for replacement, and when he fights immediately, He can use this iron foot to cut the belly of the opponent's war horse with ease.
Sometimes Sun Xiao thought maliciously, no one would dare to compete with the infantry in hand-to-hand combat in the future, because if you are empty-handed, his infantry will not have an iron foot like a knife.
Of course, as an old friend of the infantry, Sun Xiao also knew how much the infantry paid for this, in the first two months, the part above the knee of the infantry wearing the iron hoop was ground to blood, even if the iron hoop was on it, the craftsman had tried to make it soft, but it couldn't withstand the infantry's toss so much, every time he lifted the infantry's trouser leg, Sun Xiao would have a sour nose. Now, the section above the knee has grown a thick cocoon shell.
The infantry who came to Jishi Mountain always lay in their clothes, and their bows, arrows, and knives were all within reach, because he was in charge of the most unruly men, and he had to deal with any unexpected situation that could arise at any time.
"Are those guys okay?" Seeing the infantry who pulled over a human stool and sat down, Sun Xiao asked.
"It's okay, compared to their previous life of displacement and displacement, now they don't live in heaven, what can they not be satisfied with. Their families can earn money every day, they can get a good salary on time, how could they have lived such a comfortable life before? The infantry laughed. The nails I sprinkled in them will repay them every day, and for now, it seems that they are going to follow us honestly. ”
"How is Gongsun Yi doing?" Sun Xiao asked in a low voice. Gongsun Yi has a certain prestige among the Gongsun tribe, and the Gongsun clan has also entered the Fufeng army on a large scale, although they have been scattered and incorporated into various teams, but after all, they are still in an army. This person is also capable, so after Sun Xiao suppressed him for a period of time and sharpened his edges and corners, he reactivated him with the rapid expansion of the cavalry. Now with the horizontal sword, the tiger head three, and for the infantry under the command of the three great generals.
"He was very positive." The infantry said with satisfaction: "He is the one who is the fastest accustomed to our military discipline of Fufeng, which surprises me, and now the five hundred cavalry under his command is a step stronger than the military discipline of the tiger head and the horizontal sword." ”
"That's great!" Sun Xiao said with a smile: "This time when I went back, Jiang Changshi taught me a trick, saying that if this Gongsun Yi really has some ability." You might as well raise him more, so that his position in my Fufeng Army in the future will be higher than their previous patriarch Ah Man. ”
"Can you imagine the scene when we meet in the Fufeng Army in the future, Aman will give Gongsun Yi a gift to the chief?" Sun Xiao grunted.
"Divide the Gongsun Division?" The infantry knows the authenticity.
"Of course. Gongsun Yi's position has come up, how can he bow to Ah Man again. With our support, hey, the Gongsun Department will soon disintegrate, speaking of which. Jiang Changshi is really insidious! Sun Xiao said with a smile.
"Didn't you have a prejudice against Jiang Changshi before?" The infantry was puzzled by the tunnels. "I went back to see him this time, and I was impressed by him? It seems that Jiang Changshi still has this kind of means? ”
Sun Xiao waved his hand, "Don't mention it." This little old man is insidiously tight, and the yin people's plans are drawn one after another, I can't afford to provoke such a person. Besides, he is giving advice to the general, and I will listen to him, and it is not shameless. ”
The infantry smiled, "I have to tell you one thing, although the Hun cavalry is very obedient now, we still have to maintain the number of the Central Plains cavalry in the entire cavalry team, the Helan sect leader is in a very wrong mood for a while, and the recruits she is training are a little slack." ”
"This is something that can't be helped, wait a minute, you also know that she must be unhappy in her heart. After this paragraph, maybe it's fine! Speaking of this, Sun Xiao couldn't do anything.
The infantry was also speechless, and his friendship with Helan Yan was deeper than that of Sun Xiao.
Soon after the infantry came, the second one who came in a hurry was Guo Laosi Guo Quan, the former slave of the Gongsun Department, and now he has become the foreman under Sun Xiao, who is responsible for the construction of Jishi City who are rescued or surrendered by themselves.
The reason why Sun Xiao took a fancy to him was because this little old man, when he was a slave in the Gongsun clan in the past, he could become the head of all the slaves, and he could successfully incite the restlessness of the slaves when the soldiers of the Fufeng Army pressed the border, and it can be regarded as a credit for the Fufeng Army's successful incorporation of the Gongsun clan, and such a guy, without some talent, is impossible to do.
Later facts proved that this old man, who had been a slave for most of his life, had extraordinary organizational talents, and tens of thousands of people were actually distributed in an orderly manner in his hands, which greatly improved the speed of building the city. And Sun Xiao also attaches more and more importance to him.
"I've seen General Sun, I've seen General Bu!" Guo Quan saluted the two respectfully, and then stood aside with his hands down.
"Lao Guo, sit down, sit down!" Sun Xiao is easy-going and authentic.
"In front of the two generals, where is my place?" Guo Quan lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Little Lao'er just stands!" ”
Guo Quan's talent has now been confirmed, but this slave has been in office for a long time, and finally developed some bad habits, and the infantry held their breath, "Let you sit on the toilet and talk a lot!" ”
As soon as the infantry scolded, Guo Quan's legs immediately weakened, and he quickly found a stool and sat down.
"Lao Guo, you are not a slave now, you are our colleague, whether I am or General Bu, they are all your colleagues. This time I went back, I told us about your affairs with the long history of our expedition to the Eastern Mansion, and Jiang Changshi was also quite appreciative, saying that he would officially appoint you as the official of my expedition to the Eastern Mansion, but because General Gao has not come back yet, so this letter of appointment will have to wait for General Gao to come back and use the seal before I can bring it to you. ”
As soon as Sun Xiao's words fell, Guo Quan had already slipped off the stool, and knelt down in front of Sun Xiao with a bang, "Little old man, thank you for the great grace of the general!" "Watching him kowtow like pounding garlic. Sun Xiao couldn't look at it, and pulled him up, "What are you doing here, you work hard, and you have a lot of prestige, the Zhengdong Mansion will naturally be reused for you, remember Luo, you can be an official because you have made a contribution to my Zhengdong Mansion." It's the grace of the person who is useful, the person who is meritorious, not the grace of that person, if you want to feel that it is grace. Then there is only one person you are thanking for, which is the master of my expedition to the Eastern Mansion, General Gao Yuan! ”
"Little old man understands, thank you General Gao for your kindness!" Guo Quan kowtowed again. Only then did he stand up, still like in a dream, and he had been a slave for most of his life. I thought that this life would be like this, but I didn't expect that when I got old, I actually turned over and became an official, and now he is leading tens of thousands of people to engage in the work of Jishi City, which can be described as a moment of weight. And his achievements have also been greatly respected in the Fufeng Army, all of which is naturally because of the man he has never met, the general of Zhengdongfu who decided to build a city here, Gao Yuan.
"Lao Guo, I want to build the city wall this winter, do you think you are sure?" Sun Xiao asked.
"General Sun, the earthwork required for the construction of the city has been prepared, and the other materials have been transported by the general, there will be no problems on the materials, and the workers are enough, and I estimate that there is no problem with the main body of the city wall, but after the main body of the city wall reaches a certain scale, it involves the city tower and some special facilities, and experienced craftsmen are completely insufficient, and if these special facilities are not completed, the follow-up work will not be able to keep up." Guo Quan calmed down his emotions, cleared his thoughts, and became fluent as soon as he talked about his current work.
"Don't worry, craftsmen, a large number of craftsmen will be arriving soon. Speaking of which, Lao Guo, in the next month, you must spare the manpower to build a temporary residence enough for 10,000 people. ”
"Ten thousand?" Guo Quan was a little surprised, but since the Fufeng Army came, he has seen too many miracles, so he is not surprised, the general said 10,000, that is 10,000. "No problem, the materials are all complete, it's just a temporary residence, and it will be done soon."
"These 10,000 people are craftsmen, and when they arrive, the problems you mentioned will be solved." Sun Xiao smiled: "Before they arrive, your preliminary work must be completed!" ”
"10,000 craftsmen?" This time even the infantry was stunned, "Where did it come from?" ”
"I'll talk about this question when they get there!" Sun Xiao said with a smile. "In short, people are not a problem, money is not a problem, as long as we don't have problems here, what, Jishi City will appear at the foot of Jishi Mountain with a new look next spring."
While speaking, Tiger Head, Hengdao, Gongsun Yi and others rushed over one by one, and after a while, He Lanyan also staggered in under the support of Sula.
"So, the head of the sect drank too much again?" Sun Xiao frowned.
"Yes, General, I originally advised Miss not to come, but Miss wanted to come." Sula was embarrassed.
Helan Yan pushed Su La away, walked straight to Sun Xiao's side and sat down, "Sun Xiao, this time I went back to Fufeng, I heard a lot of news, let me hear it?" ”
Sun Xiaozhi said what she wanted to hear, but what did he say?
"Sula, go down and get a bowl of sobering soup for the sect leader!" Sun Xiao commanded.
Helan Yanha laughed, "What kind of decanting soup do you want?" I'm not drunk. She staggered to her feet, and walked out of the city in the midst of looking at each other, and Sula hastened to follow her, and immediately Sulla's exclamation of surprise rang out. Everyone stood up all of a sudden, but saw He Lanyan walking back again, her face full of water, like a chicken in soup, but she had just come out of the water, and dipped her head into the cold water in a bucket outside, this was already snowing, and the water in the bucket was covered with a thin layer of ice, and when He Lanyan walked in, there was still some ice ballast in her hair. Sura hurriedly took out a sweat towel from his arms and wiped it for Helan Yan.
"Now, can you say that?" After soaking in cold water, He Lanyan really sobered up a lot, and her speech became sharper. (To be continued......)
