In the "New Tang Dynasty Book: Soldiers", it was said that in the early Tang Dynasty, the soldiers were on the border, the big army, the small guard, the city, the town, and in short, the Tao.

And this "town" was originally an army guarding the border, and later it became a "feudal town" for the military and government of the Jiedu side.

Thousands of miles near Huating Town, sparsely populated, cultivated land is not one out of ten, completely desolate and barren, so almost along the Baoshan, Kunshan, Guxian Mountain line, not only a lot of land on the west side of Wusong River is within Huating Town, even the area on the east side is also Huating Town.

Its land is no less than a quarter of Suzhou, but there are only about 30 soldiers stationed here......

The total number of residents in the entire town of Huating is only a few thousand, and almost all of them are distributed on the seaside on the other side of the Wusong River, making a living by boiling salt. However, there are no trees in the saline-alkali land, and the reeds that are used as fuel for boiling salt have been occupied by the major clans, and the people are not allowed to cut down, and each family makes huge profits by boiling salt.

Riding a war horse around the dock, listening to Yang Xiuwu's tireless explanation, it seems that this guy really has the intention of switching to Fang Jun's camp, and secretly shakes out all kinds of unbearable actions of the Jiangnan Shi clan in Huating Town......

When I came to a gentle slope not far from the wharf, I stood on the slope and looked around, but in front of me was an inlet close to the Wusong River, but obviously through artificial repair, there are bluestone slopes on the bank slopes all around, forming a large pond, and a dam was built on the riverside to isolate the river water, and a sluice gate was built, and the river water in the pond was discharged from the gate on the other side, and it was a shipyard.

Yang Xiuwu saw Fang Jun looking around, and also knew that the timber transported by the river overnight last night was a good material for shipbuilding, so he introduced: "This is a shipyard, it is said to have been built in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the Southern Dynasty had repaired it, but it was completely lost and shelved in the former Sui Dynasty. ”

Fang Jun looked at the surrounding terrain, although he didn't understand the infrastructure, but he still knew the natural conditions needed to build a shipyard, and after a little look, he knew that this place only needed a little repair, and it was a good place for a shipyard.

It's just that Datang doesn't pay enough attention to the navy, and such a perfect shipyard is allowed to be shelved and abandoned. It can be seen that the victory in several foreign naval wars in the middle of the Tang Dynasty is completely because the shipbuilding technology of the Tang Dynasty is too far ahead of the surrounding countries, even if it inherits the family background of the former Sui, it still makes several neighbors look for teeth!

But when Fang Jun's eyes moved to the area between the pond and the dock, his face suddenly sank.

Yang Xiuwu didn't see it well, and just wanted to defend a few words, he saw that Fang Jun had already galloped down the hillside with his horse, so he had no choice but to follow, and begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother, the chief manager, not to be mad......

Fang Jun held the horsewhip in his hand, and let the four hooves of the war horse under his crotch kick and walk on the ground, his face was gloomy as water.

In front of him was an open field, and a few ragged handymen were building houses one after another. The reeds cut from the reeds and the clay were built into low walls, and then a thin layer of reeds mats were covered with them......

This is the barracks built for my soldiers?

Even the public toilets in the mountains are not as good, okay?

And even if it is so simple to the extreme, there are only one or twenty "thatched toilets" that can neither shelter from the wind nor the rain. Fang Jun fully believed that these "latrines" must have been rumored to have started construction temporarily under Yang Xiuwu's haste after Niu Zhuji's victory, and before that, Yang Xiuwu had no intention of acting according to his instructions at all!

Do you think Lao Tzu has to be buried in Niuzhuji?

Hehe......

Fang Junli also ignored Yang Xiuwu, who hurried behind him, and left without saying a word.

Yang Xiuwu looked at Fang Jun's back, sighed helplessly, and his expression was uncertain......

He is the partial body of Hongnong Yang, and he is not valued in the clan, and after the death of Yang Su and Yang Xuangan's father and son, Hongnong Yang is very depressed, and he has not been able to get enough benefits in the change of dynasty, but with Yang Xuangan's rebellious strength, it has been greatly damaged. Therefore, it is not easy for him to get the position of the commander of Huating Town.

Although Huating Town is barren, but the Haiyu City and Suzhou across the wall are the prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River, as soon as Yang Xiuwufu arrived here, he was conquered by the luxurious life, and soon threw himself into the arms of the Jiangnan Shi clan to help guard the reeds along the coast of Huating Town, and colluded.

It is not a secret in Jiangnan that the Jiangnan Shi clan wants to put Fang Jun to death in Niu Zhuji, but for various reasons, neither the Jiangnan Shi clan nor Fang Jun himself nor the center have ever said it. Since Yang Xiuwu is one with the Jiangnan Shi clan, Fang Jun's life and death itself has nothing to do with the Hongnong Yang family, and the most important thing is that once Fang Jun arrives in Huating Town, his "soil emperor" will come to an end, Yang Xiuwu is naturally happy that Fang Jun was slaughtered, so he didn't take the letter sent by Fang Jun seriously at all.

As for the construction of barracks and the purchase of baggage, all these things were left behind, and the money sent by Fang Jun fell into his pocket......

When Fang Jun turned defeat into victory in Niuzhuji and made a famous name, Yang Xiuwu felt that something was wrong, and lamented that his life as a "soil emperor" who was drunk and dreamed of dying and relying on red and green finally came to an end, and he completely forgot Fang Jun's letter for a while!

When the news of Fang Jun's arrival in Haiyu City came, Yang Xiuwu remembered this matter, and then hurriedly organized some miscellaneous servants to build barracks, but the military baggage was definitely impossible to buy, because most of the silver money had been spent by him......

What can I do?

That Fang Jun is not good at all stubble! If you treat your own sin in this way, it is completely reasonable, even if Hongnong's own family speaks out, I am afraid that they will not be able to suppress Fang Jun!

In the midst of the crisis, Yang Xiuwu came up with a way to "pay off his debts......

In his mind, Fang Jun's eyes were black when he first arrived, and he always had to have a henchman who was familiar with all kinds of inside information, right? If he takes refuge in the past, Fang Jun will definitely be happy, and the small sins in the past are naturally not worth mentioning. Not only can you get out of danger, but you can climb up to Fang Jun's big thick legs, isn't it the best of both worlds?

But Fang Jun's current performance made Yang Xiuwu feel a little uncertain.

Just now, Yan Yan was smiling and full of spring breeze, why did he change his face in a blink of an eye?

Worried in his heart, Yang Xiuwu followed Fang Jun back to the barracks on the edge of the dock.

Fang Jun was already sitting in the middle, his face gloomy.

Yang Xiuwu stood on one side tremblingly, beating a drum in his heart, I don't know if Fang Jun wants to dispose of himself, or accept his own surrender?

Fang Jun picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea, drooping his eyelids and said, "General Yang, bring the account books in the town and show them to Ben Hou." ”

Yang Xiuwu's heart jumped suddenly, check the accounts?

Oh no, this black-faced kid is trying to clean up my rhythm!

His eyes rolled wildly, thinking of ways to eliminate the danger, and a thunderous cry suddenly sounded in his ears.

"The chief manager asked you to take the account books, why are you still stunned? Want to defy military law? ”

Yang Xiuwu was frightened, and when he turned around, he saw a military man who thought he had a big waist and a round body standing beside him with a pair of bull's eyes, and his heart suddenly burst out, and he smiled and said: "Captain Liu, this general is ......."

He wanted to say, "The level of this general is higher than you, can you be polite", but before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly went black, and the edge of a big fist slammed into his face.

Liu Renyuan took a step forward, pinned Yang Xiuwu's arm behind him neatly, and stepped on his back with the other foot, pressing him to his knees.

Yang Xiuwu finally came to his senses, and shouted: "The chief manager spare me, the last general will ask someone to bring the account books to ......" and then shouted outside the door, asking people to quickly get the account books.

After a while, there was a roe deer-headed rat-eyed and thin town mayor Shi who brought in a few account books tremblingly, handed them to Liu Renyuan, and wanted to turn around and retreat, but was held by Xi Junmai on the other side of the knee, and knelt on the ground with a miserable howl, sweating profusely.

Fang Jun was naturally too lazy to check and reconcile the accounts, the army had its own talents who were proficient in arithmetic brought from home, and the accounts were soon clear.
