The world is still in general chaos, following the edict of Dong Chengyi in February, just into May, Xuzhou came to Liu Bei to kill the Xuzhou assassin appointed by Cao Zong, according to Pengcheng Xiaopei, who wanted to join forces with Yuan Shao to fight Cao Cao.

Liu Bei is still fighting under the banner of the dead ghost Dong Cheng's edict!

This time, Cao Cao's mouth ulcers were directly raised, more than 10,000 cavalry were raised, and he went straight to Xuzhou with a thunderous trend of stealing the bell, and before leaving, he sent someone to Wang Hou on the north bank of the Yellow River and brought a letter, and the content of the crepe was not read, anyway, Wang Hou roughly looked at it, it was your boss and I went out to cut people, as the N master, you looked at Tangkou at home and be honest, don't make trouble for Lao Tzu!

Before Wang Hou set off, he asked Cao Cao to dig lime in his small villa, dig coal and iron for him to make steel, it is estimated that Guo Jia wanted to help him watch, just three days after the Labor Day, Wang Hou received his building materials as he wished.

The steel-copying method was refined to produce 4,000 steel bars that did not know whether the quality was enough, and more than 6,000 bags of unqualified cement were broken with steelmaking residues and lime, as well as a number of quicklime, and a large number of things were piled up at the city gate.

In later generations, Wang Hou is willing to play "Fallout 4", and the gunfights and monsters in this game are secondary, the most willing to play is the building mode, spend a day, pile up a castle or military stronghold or a peaceful and peaceful paradise, all of which make him feel a special sense of achievement, and now this is finally going to play really, looking at Wang Congge sticking out his tongue tiredly at the door, Wang Hou himself is excited and can't help grinding his fists and palms.

However, he didn't wait to do it, but Cao Hongjie also had a little belly that was getting more and more bulging, and he also hummed sourly with the account book.

"There are only 40,000 stone left in the military rations! If you toss again! In another month, the county soldiers in Puyang County will have nothing to eat! ”

"Got it! Bread will be there! ”

It was poverty that limited Wang Hou's imagination, and the corners of his mouth twitched, and he sighed listlessly.

However, in a blink of an eye, Wang Hou left the matter of food behind, and in Cao Hongjie's speechless eyes, he shouted at Zhao Yun, the head of the eighty-hundred-county soldiers, with great excitement.

"Pass on the order of the king, mobilize the county soldiers, and prepare to work!!"

...........

He doesn't need 5,000 people to work, and he still needs a part of the army to continue training, and it is estimated that the Cao Yuan War will have to kick off this autumn, so the manpower still needs to be picked.

In two months, the county soldiers of Puyang County have also undergone a lot of changes when Wang Hou came, although it is training in the morning and the afternoon is on vacation, this is just busy with spring ploughing and farming, and half a day is still in production, but the formation is now standing neatly, and on the school field outside the city, more than 5,000 people are like thirteen tofu blocks, standing neatly and upright.

And Wang Hou also knows the truth of beating a stick to give a sweet date, and adds meat to lunch every day, although it is only two taels of meat, and it is also bacon made by Wang Hou Pig Farm in winter, but it is also meat! It is an invaluable protein in this era! Compared with the beginning of spring, many military men with meat nourishment actually gained half a circle.

It is a matter of pride to have his own subordinates, standing on the point platform, Wang Hou is also rare to wear heavy and cold armor, and he pulled out his long sword violently, roaring and shouting.

"Today's military exercises, with the song as a unit, two by two, the winner does not need to labor, normal training in the morning, farming in the afternoon, the loser will go out of hard labor, and the official will go to Puyang City in the morning!"

"Beat the drums, sort them out by banner, and the martial arts show begins!"

The dull cowhide snare drum rumbled, and the results of the two months of training were also shown, except for the thirteen songs for maintaining law and order that the lucky one was not satisfied with, the remaining 4,800 people were neatly divided into two columns, and then the neat one turned back, and with the roar of Wang Hou's cronies and those Wang officers, they shouted and put on a fighting posture face to face.

In these years, the quality of weapons is not good, and it is common to lose weapons in hand-to-hand combat, so this martial arts exercise has not been tested with weapons in hand-to-hand combat, however, in Wang Hou's own passionate gaze, a strange scene happened!

"Oops~~"

"Oops~~~"

Seeing that the dense county soldiers were about to line up and collide together like a full-scale war, but when they were a few steps apart, both sides seemed to have turned into soft-footed shrimps, and the first three rows rolled to the ground crackling, magically covering their eyes and nose and screaming, and even more ruthlessly, the angry Wang officer stretched out his fingers and scolded twice, coldly and violently the bridge of his nose with a fist, and one by one he did a black eye and sprayed nosebleeds.

"This ....."

Wang Hou's nose was almost out of breath, full of confusion, he was rolling up his sleeves to find out, but before he could leave, Zhao Yun tugged at his collar and clenched his fists.

"Lord, please change the winner to repair the house, and the loser will continue to train and try!"

glanced at him in astonishment, and then Wang Hou helplessly ordered to knock the gold, and then waved the flag on the platform.

"Just now, there is no distinction between victory and defeat, pass on the order of the king, and carry out the next martial arts exercise, the winner will go to Puyang City to build a shop, and the loser will continue to train and beat the drum!"

Again, the heavy cowhide drum sounded, this time, the momentum changed completely, and before the military Sima gave the order, the soldiers on both sides were already red-eyed and fist-turned, roaring and colliding together, grinning their teeth, and one by one the electric cannons were on the bridge of the opponent's nose.

This time, it doesn't matter what the seven uncles and eight aunts are, just do it! That's called a real fight! A group of people pinched each other's collars and turned around to fight together, and what kind of fingering techniques were used to pinch the legs of the children and legs, and the fingering of the eyeballs was used, and the fierce appearance, these pro-soldiers around Wang Hou were secretly frightened.

Picking his nose, and then blowing in front of his mouth, Wang Hou himself sat back in the chair and muttered easily.

"No wonder, when Lao Tzu was in school, he would rather work than stand in a fucking military posture!"

.........

After a 5,000-person ruffian brawl, more than 100 were seriously injured, and the losers of the six songs stood up on the school field again in a dejected manner, and those victors entered the city refreshed with nosebleeds and became migrant workers.

The whole Puyang has become a busy labor scene, although Wang Hou is not an engineering student, but in his era, everywhere is demolition and construction of communities, he has never eaten pork and he has seen pigs run, the construction site is nothing to sell for half a day, and being a contract foreman is also the head.

In his shouting, first of all, the road was widened, the homestead on both sides was sprinkled with rammed earth and smashed solid, and then directly demolished the bluestone slabs of other streets like Tianzi grid, although it was not as exaggerated as Tang Chang'an City Zhuque Street, but it also changed from the original two-way two-lane to two-way four-lane width and narrowness, two days, facing the east and west south gates, first paved a T-shaped spacious main road.

Then it stopped.

There is not even a mountain in the damn Great Plains, all of them are impact layers, Wang Hou needs stones to build a homestead, but where to mine stones within a radius of 100 miles? When a group of county soldiers went back to training with sighs and sighs, Wang Houbei urged him to bring a letter to Wang Congge, who had already rushed back to Xudu, asking him to bring back some more stones in addition to the next batch of cement.

The project dragged on until the beginning of June, and then continued, with precious gunpowder, Wang Congge blew up a few tons of stones for Wang Hou at the northern foot of Funiu Mountain, and then pulled it to the north bank of the Yellow River by ferry, with stones, Puyang finally became a big construction site again.

Want to build a building, the foundation has to be laid, contrary to the normal state of Han Dynasty architecture, Wang Hou laid hundreds of square meters of large stones on the ground, and then sieved sand from the Yellow River, mixed with substandard cement poured down to fill the gaps, in addition to quarrying took more than half a month, the completion was two-thirds earlier than the Han Dynasty with graphite disc layer by layer smashed rammed earth.

The next is to raise the layer, the technology of reinforced concrete in later generations, Wang Hou's material must not reach the strength, so he did not plan to build the kind of six-story seven-story high-rise building, directly a three-story small building is satisfied, and the reinforced concrete building frame has also been abandoned, learn from the construction site of later generations, insert the long steel bar into the reserved ground pile, and then use strong green bricks and cement to pile around the steel bar, honestly stacking the load-bearing wall and load-bearing column.

In Wang Hou's pleasing eyes, on the left and right of the T-shaped street, there are more than 30 three-story small buildings, with a speed of one or two meters a day, and they are vigorously rising upward like mushrooms.

Seeing that the season had entered July and the wheat in the fields had risen to more than half a person's height, among the only remaining "four great families" in the city, Liu Wei, the patriarch surnamed Liu, sent someone to send a letter to Wang Hou and invited him to the banquet!

Generally, after the court officials arrived at the place, the first thing was to have a good relationship with the local clans, until the Qing Dynasty, the court officials needed the local clans to carry out the orders of the court, and the countryside was still the world of the squires.

However, Puyang is an alternative, the last Dongjun Taishou Liu Yan is simply a naked martial artist, anyway, this is the front line of the confrontation with Yuan Shao, he has no heart to care about the people's livelihood and production, it is directly a bandit rule, maintaining the troops stationed in Puyang, the stronghold, if there is no food, he will go to the place to extort, and if he does not give it, he will directly set up troops to rob it.

The relationship is so tense, anyway, there are soldiers and civilians at hand, occupying the Puyang ferry, and after Wang Hou arrived, he didn't do anything to them, and they had nothing to do.

This Liu Wei took the initiative to invite him, but it made Wang Hou stunned, it is a point to be able to unite a point, after all, the Liu family has a population of more than 10,000 tenants, and it is also a good thing to be able to win the Liu family over before he and Yuan Shao have a hard time.

On July 15, with more than 200 of his own soldiers and Zhao Yun, the head of the bodyguard, Wang Hou drove to Dongpu County, east of Puyang.
