October Xuansu County, Governor's Mansion.

"I don't know how my uncle is preparing." Zhang Zhen looked in the direction of Linshui Village. Winter in the north comes very early, and the bitter north wind rags across the vast land.

"Young master, Cai Jing asked me to tell the young master that what you want has been made." An old servant walked in through the door.

"Oh?" Seeing that the person who came was Ma Jun, the housekeeper of the Governor's Mansion, Zhang Zhen was puzzled.

"Young master, didn't you say that as long as Cai Jing commands, no matter when, you have to report it?" Ma Jun explained.

"Cai Jing?" Zhang Zhen has been busy exterminating the invading alien race for the past few months, and this name is just a little impression, but he can't remember who it is for a while.

"It's Cai Jing who boasts that he is the heir of Cai Hou's paper!" Ma Jun reminded.

"Oh! Right! Zhang Zhen patted his head, after he set the military regulations, he found a paper mill, and was going to hire a person who could make paper, but he heard Cai Jing boast that he was the successor of Cai Hou's paper, so he hired him and arranged for him to tell him some papermaking experience in his previous life in the governor's mansion, and then he didn't ask again.

I didn't expect to come to the door at this time, could it be that Cai Hou made paper? The more Zhang Zhen thought about it, the more excited he became, and he hurriedly stopped and turned his head towards the governor's mansion.

"General!" Seeing Zhang Zhen coming over in such a hurry, Cai Jing's heart was surging and moved, and he bowed.

"No need to be polite, ...... you came to me this time?" Zhang Zhen helped Cai Jing up with both hands.

"General, you said that as soon as I made this transformation paper, I would inform you as soon as possible. A few months of groping down the ancestors blessed, and finally succeeded, indeed as the adults said, with hemp, ramie, flax, sandalwood, mulberry, bamboo and other raw materials plus lime water, and then according to the adults said the selection of materials, soaking, cooking, washing, whitening, feeding, paper, drying, baking paper and other steps! I finally made this new paper. The adult is really a strange person, since he is so proficient in this way, it is difficult to reach the horse. Cai Jing praised.

"Is it really made? Show me! Zhang Zhen was overjoyed.

Cai Jing cautiously went to the warehouse and took out a few pieces of paper: "General, you see that this is quite satisfying." ”

Zhang Zhen took the pale yellow papers. This is indeed paper. It's just that the color is not so white compared to before, but it is indeed paper! Overall satisfied. Compared with Cai Lun's improved paper, it is much stronger and more convenient to make, Zhang Zhen hurriedly said: "Bring pen and ink." ”

Soon Ma Jun, who was waiting on the side, put on the pen and ink, polished the ink, Zhang Zhen picked up the pen, and wrote all the military regulations before stopping!

I saw that the ink color was printed on the paper, and it was clearly displayed on the paper, and there was no sign of ink immersion. Obviously, the paper made by Cai Jing is still qualified. Zhang Zhen was overjoyed, and he didn't need to take a bundle of bamboo slips to write anything in the future: "Cai Jing, yes, live up to the name of your ancestors!" After that, I will stay in the house, and I will give you twenty stones and twenty silver every month. ”

"Thanks, General, I am willing to serve the dogs and horses." Cai Jing bowed to the ground.

"Okay, good, you have to be so talented, how can you be without wine." After that, Zhang Zhen arranged for Ma Jun to buy a table of drinks.

Zhang Zhen said again: "Cai Jing, how much can this paper be made in a month?" What is the coin used? ”

Cai Jing arched his hand and said: "My lord, now I can make about 10,000 pieces of paper in a month, and the coins are about 20 silver." ”

Zhang Zhen nodded, this output seems to be a bit low, the cost does not need to be abused, and twenty silver can still bear it. "Cai Jing chooses a day, if you want to find a way to expand production, you don't have to worry about the cost."

"Yes, my lord!" Cai Jing nodded in response.

......

Following. A layer of white frost formed on the road.

I went out of the governor's mansion to Linshui, and hurried over as soon as I got the news.

Zhang Zhen led 1,000 waterfront militia, with a convoy loaded with 5,000 stone sweet potatoes to Xiangping, and then set off from Xiangping through Youbeiping, to Jizhou, where there are three famous business families, the Zhen family.

Cross Liaoshui and rush to Changli County on the way.

The scout in front hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Report ...... General, the big thing is not good, several villages in Changli County were slaughtered by the Wuhuan people! ”

"Fuck!"

Zhang Zhen held the hand of the iron spear, the green tendons were protruding, and with a strong wave, a tree on the road was broken in response, and he roared angrily: "This group of bitches raised can't grab food in Xuanfu County, so they actually came here to loot and slaughter the people, which is unbearable." Everyone is ready to fight, I want them to pay with blood! ”

Although the militia is not on the right track, its preparations are not dragged in the slightest, and they have drawn their weapons and set up a formation, not at all like those recruits who have just been trained.

The preparation was very fast, because Zhang Zhen had already made preparations, so the 1,000 militiamen, facing the cold wind, all stood in armor and were ready to go.

They are basically homeless people recruited by Linshui Village, at most, Zhang Kui has trained, and they have not experienced a real battle, this is the first battle for everyone, and no one is timid, because their lives are saved by the Governor, before the convoy departs, the Governor said that all the way to Jizhou, most of them will not arrive smoothly.

As the people of the border area, there is no one who does not hate the rape and plundering of the alien race, which is inhumane, but they can only watch it before, and even there are many people who have been killed by the foreign race and their families are ruined, and their wives are separated, but the Han court has always been helpless against the foreign race in the border area, and they are just more than willing and not enough.

Thousands of pairs of eyes were staring at Zhang Zhen, they were finally able to stand with Lord Overseer, the terrifying wolf king of the alien race, to fight on the battlefield together.

Zhang Zhen rode on the green wolf and stepped on the frosty ground step by step, his eyes flashed with bloodthirsty light as if he was sitting down on the green wolf. Before, they had the impression that the general was not a devil who would eat human flesh in the mouth of the alien race, on the contrary, he was a heroic, gentle and serious general, but at this moment, in the eyes of all the soldiers, he had changed, and he was no longer the general they knew, and at this moment they believed the words of the alien race a little.

Zhang Zhen took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at everyone and said: "Today, just for revenge, the Wuhuan people regard us and other Han people as grass mustard, slaughtering thousands of people in Changli County, burning, killing and looting, doing all kinds of evil, I only say one word - not a single one!" ”

Zhang Zhen's voice is not loud, a little low, but it can be transmitted throughout the entire army, that sound of "no one is left", ignited the anger of the whole militia, they are all people from the side, they all have their own relatives, this time it was the people of Changli who were slaughtered, and no one can guarantee that the Wuhuan people will only come once, who knows where it will be next time, Xuansu County? Xiangping? Or is it the current waterfront village? So, they are very determined at the moment and have a great responsibility! They are willing to saddle the generals with their useful bodies.

"None of them will be left!"

"None of them will be left!"

The anger of thousands of people is terrifying, and they vent their inner humiliation, perhaps only with the blood of the Wuhuan people can wash it away.

"I, Zhang Zhen, am the captain of the Han Dynasty, guarding the frontier, where my duty lies, I am the first soldier, I am immediately speared, and I want to seek justice for the people of the Han Dynasty, I want the blood debt of the Wuhuan dog thief, even if it is not recovered, I will not hesitate to do it!"

The militiaman, dressed in light armor and armed with a simple knife and a spear, seemed to feel hot and dry at the moment, and had nowhere to vent.

"Wu Fan, lead 200 people to wait here. The rest of the people, etc., will follow. After Zhang Zhen finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed to Changli County, and for a while, one hundred and eight people rushed, shook down countless yellow leaves, and stepped on countless hay.

The cold wind was still blowing, Zhang Zhen faced the cold wind, rode on the green wolf, and galloped towards the north, the iron gun in his hand seemed to be able to pierce the cold wind, and he could feel the air flow divided by the tip of the gun. The wind grew stronger, and the silver cloak was blown by the wind, sticking to a lot of frost, and being blown off by the wind. The wind, getting stronger and stronger, rolled up thousands of dead leaves, gradually blurring his figure.

With the militia all the way to Changli County, there were two or three corpses strewn all over the village, none of them lived, Zhang Zhen didn't say a word all the way, just rushed forward, blood-red eyes always stared at the place where the black smoke rose, until he came to Changli County twenty miles away.

This is a village, but at the moment, flesh and blood are flying, fires are everywhere, the fishy smell is scattered, and the terrible screams are coming and going, mixed with the crazy and obscene laughter of the Wuhuan cavalry, and the corpses are all over the field, it is simply a hell on earth.

Zhang Zhen's face was colder than the frost on the road, his black hand raised the iron spear that flashed with silver light, his eyes were red, facing the wind, he yelled hysterically: "Kill ......, don't leave a single one!" ”
