Chapter 116: Sixteen Guards

At any time, the power of the government is the most powerful, and when a strong bureaucracy operates, it will burst into extreme power in the shortest possible time. ◢ With * dream * small ◢.1a

Li Shimin ordered a cart of iron as if he didn't want money, pulled into Chang'an City, all the blacksmiths in the entire Guanzhong area were requisitioned, ordinary blacksmiths were assigned to the simplest task only need to cast the extension rod of the well-drilling tool, and the skilled craftsmen were assigned to the casting of the well and the pipe down.

The most important tools for going down to the well and lifting the soil were distributed to Mojia Village, because the general supervisor found that the tools for digging and lifting soil in Mojia Village were unusually hard and sharp.

The supervisor also thought about making his own soil-lifting tools, but the experiment found that the earth-lifting tools produced by the general's supervisor would be damaged once they encountered stones in the mine, and in serious cases, they would even be scrapped on the spot.

With a wave of his hand, Li Shimin directly packed the earth-lifting tools directly to Merton, and the general who had been trying to plot the secret recipe for iron-making in Mojia Village turned black on the spot.

Frankly speaking, compared with the price given by Li Shimin, every handful made by Mojia Village is just to protect the capital, because Mojia Village uses the formula provided by Moton, and the training is close to steel, and there are several more processes, and the cost has skyrocketed.

Even so, Merton did not have any objections, but ordered Mojia Village to give up all business and go full speed to make soil lifting tools.

With the supply of unlimited materials, Mojia Village has exploded with extraordinary manufacturing power, with all kinds of advanced tools, the power of one village, the production of earth-lifting tools can fully keep up with the production speed of the blacksmiths who concentrate most of the prisons, and sometimes even more than enough.

With the completion of the construction of the first batch of well-drilling tools, Qin Qiong's Zuo Wuwei was the first to receive the order for disaster relief and set off on both sides of the Jing River, where the drought was most severe.

"The imperial court has sent officers and soldiers to fight drought and provide disaster relief!"

The people of Gaoling raised their arms and cheered. In this drought, the people of Gaoling were the most severely affected, and the seeds in the ground were planted, but they did not come out at all, and if they could be irrigated at this time, the seeds could germinate.

"Hey!"

The four soldiers grabbed the handle and pressed down hard! A lot of dirt was brought up,

Every time the soil was brought up, it would make the people around the three layers of the inner and outer layers applaud.

In their eyes, this well is not a simple well, but their hope to live.

In anticipation, the four soldiers were also enthusiastic, and the strength in their hands couldn't help but increase a few points.

Soon, a well was drilled.

Zuo Wuwei's soldiers quickly put away their tools and headed for another well-digging site, where they were only responsible for digging wells, and the work of washing the wells and watering the ground was handed over to the owner of the field.

"Out of the water!"

Shortly after the four soldiers left, cheers rang out from the mouth of the well.

Not far away, Morton and Qin Qiong couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, they had heard a lot of cheers like this, but they always never got tired of hearing them.

Merton came this time, the main purpose was to escort a batch of well-drilling tools to Zuo Wuwei, and by the way, the task of painting the portrait of Lingyan Pavilion was completed.

"Merton, you may not believe it, but this is the most glorious day I have ever led my troops, not how many battles I have won." Qin Qiong said with pride on her face. Qin Qiong led his troops to fight and killed countless enemies, he never thought that he would be able to lead troops to rescue people one day.

"The duty of officers and men is to defend their homes and the country, and fighting drought and providing disaster relief is not a kind of defending the homeland and the country." Merton said with a sigh.

"That's right!" Qin Qiong laughed loudly, obviously in a very happy mood.

Soon it was close to noon, and the leaders had already prepared their meals, and the officers and men of Zuo Wuwei ate in batches.

The villagers on the side killed the only old hen in the house and cooked a fragrant meal, but every soldier glanced at it and devoured the food in his hand.

"General, this is Xiaomin's heart, all the military masters are tired and just replenish their physical strength." An old man followed behind Qin Qiong and begged.

"Uncle! We can't take it, we have a rule. Qin Qiong refused with a smile, he also took a portion of the food of the gang leader and ate it, without doing anything special.

"What a teacher of benevolence and righteousness!" The old man muttered with tears in his eyes. “

Merton grabbed a steamed bun, found a corner and sat down, swallowing hard, even though he was usually used to eating the craft of the fish master, but at the moment it was very sweet.

"Bump!"

Four soldiers covered in mud sat beside Merton, ignoring the mud and gulping down the steamed buns in their hands.

"Qin Huaiyu!"

Merton was stunned for three seconds before he recognized that the guy on his left was the Qin Huaiyu who loved to be clean and showy.

Merton hurriedly looked at the three people next to him, and sure enough, it was Cheng Chumo and Wei Chi Jingde, and the other was Fang Jun.

"Why are you in Zuo Wuwei?" Merton asked, surprised.

"It's just us, all the generals over the age of fifteen in Chang'an City who have been given disaster relief." Qin Huaiyu said hesitantly with a steamed bun in his mouth, as for Fang Jun, although he was not the queen of the general, it was a pity that he was praised by Li Shimin as not a soldier, and he was also conscripted.

The three of them nodded suddenly, but because of Qin Huaiyu's relationship, the four of them directly followed Zuo Wuwei to come out for disaster relief in the first batch.

"I'm also a disciple of Jiangmen!" Merton was puzzled, and then thought that he might not have been called up because he was supervising the well-drilling tools!

The four of them ate quickly, and went to dig wells again without looking back, each pair of soldiers got the same number of wells, although the four of them were strong, but their strength was still not as good as Zuo Wuwei's hundred trained elite soldiers, they were already a lot behind, and they had to hurry up to catch up.

The rest of the soldiers were the same, and as soon as they had finished eating, they went back to the intense work of digging wells, and no one cried out that they were tired, and no one was cheating, for everyone knew that a quarter of an hour earlier they would be able to overcome the drought.

The same scene appeared in every piece of land in Guanzhong, where teams of officers and soldiers put down their weapons and armor, and frantically helped the villagers dig wells without expecting anything in return.

And he didn't eat a mouthful of food from the people, and at night he was wrapped in a marching quilt and rested on the spot, not occupying a piece of private houses.

The soldiers of the sixteen guards except for two guards who stayed in case of accidents,

The remaining fourteen guards are all over Guanzhong, and every place they go to, they leave a deep well.

100 mouths!

Qiankou,

10,000 mouths.

Each wellhead represents that the drought crisis has been lifted and the drought situation in Guanzhong has been quickly brought under control.

At the same time, the biggest harvest of this disaster relief was Li Shimin, and Li Shimin's prestige directly reached the peak.

"Famous Monarch of the Ages!"

The people of Guanzhong are all grateful to Li Shimin.

The drought-fighting show, showing off a famous monarch through the ages.
