The people in the village are watching the ox carts of the brigade these days, transporting grain, cloth, herbs, and weapons to the cottage again and again, in addition to surprise, more joy, with these things, even in the disaster year, they can also survive safely, and there will be no more things that have frozen to death and starved to death before.

Of course, among these newcomers, the most legendary is of course the second village master Zhou Nan who has never been seen. It's just that I know from the old people in the village that these things that were transported, as well as the thousands of war horses on the West Mountain, and the things that were originally piled up in the public treasury, were all brought by the ability of the second village master. Even this wall, this family protection society, this public field, the study hall, and the village rules are all inseparable from the second village master.

Lao Zheng Tou was only happy for one day, and he couldn't be happy: there was nothing in the public treasury.

Knowing that Gao Yun came back from the mountain, Lao Zheng didn't ask Gao Yuan anymore, he found Gao Bingchang, and the two of them went directly to the "canteen" next to the Houshan warehouse to cook for the Hujia Society - this name was given by Gao Yun and his group, saying that they learned from the name of Shutang, Zhou Nan never came back, I don't know how he would feel when he saw these two words-see Gao Yun.

Lao Zheng Tou first talked about this happy trouble, Gao Bingchang also frowned, and said: "Second sister, haven't you seen how many things were unloaded in the fifty ox carts yesterday, and only half of them were put into the warehouse, so there was no place to put them." ”

Gao Yun was in a good mood today, and said to the two: "We only have these few warehouses now, of course we can't hold these things." It's like if you only eat such a large amount of food, let you eat half a sheep in one meal, no matter how delicious it is, you can't eat it. ”

Lao Zheng said with a bitter face: "How can this be done?" You said that Zhou Nan, this kid, left us behind, but he ran out and didn't care, and asked Yang Datou to ask for these things. ”

Gao Yun could hear that Lao Zheng Tou was complaining on the surface, but in fact, he was selling well, and he got so many good things, who would be too much? Gao Yun said with a smile: "This is easy to do." Let's build more warehouses. ”

As soon as Lao Zheng Tou thought of building a walled wall and building a warehouse at the beginning of the year, he was stunned and stammered: "Also, still build a warehouse?" ”

Gao Yun smiled and said to Lao Zhengtou: "Doctor Zheng, Uncle Gao, you two just saw how many things were sent by fifty ox carts yesterday, and they were worried. Did General Yang tell you that when these things are delivered, there will be 100,000 sulfur to be sent later? ”

"What?! 100,000 pounds of sulfur? Lao Zheng Tou and Gao Bingchang exclaimed in unison.

"I'm going down this time, it's ...... Inspecting the inn operation, I happened to meet Da Lang in Yizhou, and he told me. Gao Yun thought of the guy who grabbed his hand and refused to let go, his face was flushed, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Da Lang said that he deliberately asked for the 100,000 catties of sulfur, as for the rest, he asked General Yang to see what was missing in the cottage. Who knew that General Yang would get back so much. ”

Lao Zheng Tou and Gao Bingchang are from the past, so they naturally know about the children and me, and they don't say anything, they just listen to Gao Yun.

Gao Yun continued: "Da Lang had a plan before, to build a section of the wall on the hill south of the gate of the wall, the south and west of the hill are cliffs, only the east and north are slopes, as long as the wall is built on the east and west sides, it is the second worry-free village, and it can also attack and defend each other with our current village, and the horns depend on each other." ”

"That's right, and the parts of the east and north sides that need to be built with walls are much shorter than this one." Lao Zheng Tou said: "But what does that have to do with storing these baggage? ”

Gao Yun Zhengse said: "Da Lang said that sulfur is an extremely anode thing, and if you want to store sulfur, you must find a place away from people. So he asked us to put a wall and a storehouse on the southern hillside. ”

Lao Zheng Tou also knew that this sulfur was very easy to ignite and ignite, so he couldn't be sloppy, so he said: "Then I have to find Uncle Liu and ask him to calculate how long it will take to finish." ”

Gao Yun reminded: "Da Lang reminded that when the Southern Dynasty finishes transporting things to us, he will borrow their livestock to help us pull stones and work." ”

Lao Zheng Tou slapped his thigh and said, "It's all to blame Yang Datou, guarding those horses, the baby just doesn't let me move, I almost forgot that there are still livestock to work." ”

The three of them discussed that the future sulphur reservoir should be built on the southern hill to avoid hurting people; The grain depot and cloth and fur depot are built on the back mountain, which is convenient for grain collection and cultivation; The armory was built next to the playground inside the wall, which was easy to practice and use.

After discussion, Lao Zheng Tou and a few others mobilized the people in the stockade to work together, and built two rows of stone warehouses behind the original warehouse in the back mountain, with ten rooms in each row, plus the original warehouse, and the grain and cloth could be stored in the new warehouse. Three armories have been built next to the playground at the foot of the mountain. Now that there were people in the village who had food, and a large number of injured horses who could only be used as horses and pack horses, it took only five days to build a new storehouse. And the baggage sent by Tong Guan took two more days to be shipped.

The last time Yang Keshi asked for things from the army of the Southern Dynasty was still full of things in the warehouse, this time it was even more excessive, a total of 20,000 stones of grain and rice, 50 boxes of herbs, 5,000 horses of cloth, and even more weapons, 20,000 guns, spears, and knives, 5,000 bows and crossbows, and more than 100,000 arrows.

Fortunately, the warehouse was built in time, so that these grains and grass were put into the warehouse in time.

Since Zhou Nan had an arrangement, Lao Zheng Tou called Liu Zongwang, who was born as a stonemason, to the south of the mountain to calculate, according to the mountain, and Yang Keshi He Gaoyuan pointed out where it was necessary to build a walled wall for defense, and finally calculated that a total of 230 zhang of walled walls needed to be built.

Lao Zhengtou, Liu Zongwang, and Gao Bingchang took out the momentum of building the walled wall at the beginning of the year, and now there are more than twice as many people as at that time, and there are horses to do heavy work, and there is enough food, and in less than 15 days, even the walled wall with sulfur reservoir has been basically built.

The sulphur storehouse was built in the southwest corner of the stone, away from the wall, next to the cliff, and a row of five bluestone storehouses was built on a vacant lot.

The walled wall and the walled gate are also built according to the style of Sanssouci Village, but there is a moat missing. Now there are two worry-free villages in the north and south, facing each other in the north and south. The blue-gray, tall and sturdy north and south gates face each other across the slope, just over a stone's throw away. As long as it is between the two walled gates, it will inevitably be attacked by bows and arrows from the north and south walls at the same time.

If an enemy comes to attack and wants to attack one walled gate, the back will inevitably be attacked by soldiers on another walled gate. Moreover, it is still attacked below, and it will also face a condescending attack on the isolated hill. In this way, the difficulty of the enemy trying to attack the fortress has more than doubled.

When the recruits of the Hujia Society were stationed on the Nanzhai Gate, the defense of the two Zhaimen suddenly came to life, and it was no longer an isolated situation.

All this, when the people in the stockade were tired and tired, Zhou Nanshi Shiran took a cavalry army, as well as Han Gui and Ma Daqiu, the two second generals, back to the cottage.
