Che Wu handed over a briefing, Che Wu glanced at it, and then Cao Xuan arched his hand and said: "Lord, the 10,000 people you want have arrived, of which there are almost 3,000 people who can do things, and I am now placing them all outside the city gate, after all, every time they enter the city, there are always some bad habits on their bodies that cannot be changed, and there will be conflicts with our local people, and you see this person, is there a little less!" ”

Cao Xuan glanced at Jia Xu next to him, at this moment Jia Xu was still drinking tea indifferently, as if he hadn't heard anything, and then said to Che Wu: "You did a good job, but three thousand people are enough!" ”

The 3,000 people that Che Wu said to Cao Xing were not soldiers, but a group of men who helped the old and the young.

Cao Xing spread out the map and pointed to three places, which are the three county towns under Cao Xing's jurisdiction, only to listen to Cao Xing and said: "Out of the county is all endless mountain roads, the nearest county seat to us, even if you hurry up, it will take four hours to arrive, I want to shorten this time!" ”

Che Wu was a little stunned when he heard this, and picked his head, as if he didn't know what Cao Xing meant by this, this mountain road is like this, that is, it takes four hours to arrive, Cao Xuan wants to shorten the time, how can this be shortened?

However, Jia Xu's eyes lit up when he heard this, he looked at Cao Xuan and said with a smile: "Master Cao, it's not that you are going to build the road!" ”

Cao Xing nodded when he heard this.

If you want to get rich, build a road first, build a good road, it is a good thing for the country and the people, but Cao Xing wants to build an ordinary road, he said his thoughts like Che Wu and Jia Xu, Che Wu was a little dumbfounded after hearing it, and after Jia Xu listened, his eyes lit up, and he didn't close his eyes and meditate on it.

To put it bluntly, the road that Cao Xing wants to build is called Yongdao, Yongdao This kind of thing appeared in the Qin Shihuang period, if it is simple, it is in the middle of the road, separated by a partition, unimpeded, mainly used for military traffic, Zhang Han, the general of the late Qin period, also used this method, so that he can provide food from Guanzhong for his troops. This is somewhat of the equivalent of the highway of later generations.

It's just that after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, things like Yongdao were gradually abolished, after all, the Han Dynasty had already scolded the Qin Dynasty as a dynasty that had no merits, so naturally it would not learn from him.

But Cao Xing didn't care at all, he directly said his thoughts, as long as the effect is good, it is good, as for what others want to say, then let them say it.

The Yongdao to be built by Cao Xing is also slightly different from the Yongdao at the time of Qin Shi Huang, which was mainly used for military transportation, and in peacetime, the common people were not allowed to pass through the Yongdao.

However, the Yongdao built by Cao Xing is not only for the army to pass, but also for the people to go in peacetime, but in wartime, because of a military tension, it can be temporarily closed, so the width of the Yongdao to be built by Cao Xing must be sufficient.

Cao Xing asked Che Wu to call Ma Bo and told Ma Bo his thoughts, and Ma Bo also nodded approvingly after hearing this, after all, Ma Bo, who was born in carpentry, naturally knew that this was definitely a good thing for the benefit of the people.

"Ma Bo, I really have to work hard for you recently, I will appoint you as the director of this project now, and I will transfer you 1,000 soldiers and horses to maintain order, and the matter of building Coopers can be cut slowly, not in a hurry, anyway, I have time, and you must pay attention to me during your tenure, although those 3,000 people are all foreigners, but no discrimination is allowed, and the daily payment of money and food must be in place, if you are on duty, if you find any official who dares to seek personal fraud for me during your duty, report it immediately, If not, when I find out, then I will hold you accountable! ”

Although Ma Bo is old and the elders are respected, but in official affairs, Cao Xuan is still vigorous and resolute, no matter who you are, and Ma Bo is also a sensible person, Cao Xuan handed over such an important task to his hands, only to see Ma Bo surrendered to Cao Xuan and took over this task.

After Ma Bo left, the three members of Cao Xingche's martial arts family summed it up, and Cao Xing estimated that if it was really built according to his ideas, the original four-hour distance could be reduced by at least half. This greatly improves maneuverability.

However, as Cao Xuan said, nothing can be rushed, especially for such a relatively large project, there are many emperors in history, in order to make great achievements, they are in a hurry, constantly squeezing the people, and eventually leading to the demise of the dynasty, such as Qin Shi Huang or Emperor Yang of Sui, so Cao Xuan knows that these things can only be advanced slowly.

Anyway, Cao Xing has now handed over the task to Ma Bo, and he doesn't have to manage these for the time being, and then Cao Xing was lazy, beckoned to Che Wu, and asked Che Wu to go to the barracks with him, Che Wu didn't say anything, and followed closely behind Cao Xing, but before Cao Xing left, he still smiled and said to Jia Xu: "Mr. Wenhe, are you interested in going to the barracks with me for a walk!" ”

Hearing Cao Xing's words, Jia Xu's face showed a wry smile, he understood the meaning of Cao Xing's move very well, although he wanted to refuse, but he knew that he might not be able to refuse, so he could only follow Cao Xing and Che Wu to the barracks.

At this moment, it was in the afternoon, and the army was in full swing, and Cao Xing and the others only had three people coming, which could be regarded as a private visit to Weifu.

Cao Xing saw that the soldiers were training so seriously, nodded indifferently, and then introduced the situation of the army to Jia Xu one by one, only to see a bunch of soldiers in the distance raise the crossbow machine in their hands, and under the order of their commander, they pulled the trigger one after another, and then the target sixty steps away all hit the red heart.

As for the infantry, there are many people who are carrying a boulder on their shoulders at the moment, and it is estimated that the weight of the boulder is at least fifty or sixty pounds, but no one shouts that they are tired, these soldiers carry boulders, but they continue to run wildly in the school field, in order to exercise endurance.

Finally, in the back mountain, there is a large cavalry school field, used to train special cavalry, I saw these cavalry riding on horses, with bows and arrows in their hands, shooting at objects twenty paces away, you know, it is very difficult to shoot this kind of thing, but the arrows shot by these cavalry are still ten shots of six or seven, this result is already quite good.

Cao Xuan couldn't help but look at Jia Xu and asked, "Mr. Wenhe, I don't know what you think of my military camp!" ”

With Jia Xu's ingenuity, it is not difficult for Jia Xu to guess that the purpose of Cao Xing bringing him here today is to show his military strength, for Cao Xing's military camp, Jia Xu has nothing to say, the soldiers of this era are trained once a day, but Cao Xing is seven days and five exercises, and these soldiers are inspired by Cao Xing, and they are trained so tenaciously, this army pulls out, I dare not say what is a hundred battles, but it is definitely a winning division.

So even if Jia Xu wanted to say something, he couldn't find fault with it at all, and in the end it could only turn into a wry smile.

The Three Kingdoms period was a world of great contention, the monarch chose the minister, the minister chose the king, this is a very common thing, especially a first-class strategist like Jia Xu, who hopes that he can serve a good lord, so that his future can be more brilliant.

Cao Xuan also knew that Jia Xu should still be hesitant in his heart now, he didn't know if he would have a future if he joined Cao Xing, after all, Cao Xuan had no background, and only relied on the power of one person to lay the foundation for today.

Jia Xu didn't dare to bet on Cao Xu, Cao Xu showed Jia Xu today, just to let Jia Xu have more confidence in himself.

Seeing Jia Xu's hesitant face, Cao Xuan knew that maybe he could give it a try today, he just wanted to throw an olive branch to Jia Xu, but at this moment, a noisy sound came into Cao Xu's ears, Cao Xing and Jia Xu followed the prestige, I don't know when, in a certain corner of the school grounds, there was already a large group of people there, and the noise in the middle was still very loud.

Cao Xing's heart was a little annoyed, he originally wanted to take Jia Xu to visit his military appearance, but he didn't expect that something happened in his military camp first, which was indeed a little embarrassing, Cao Xuan could only smile wryly, since there was a situation over there, then he still had to go and see what was going on.

Cao Xuan waved his hand and galloped away with Che Wu, and when Jia Xu saw this scene, a smile appeared on his face, and he followed with a smile.

As Cao Xing and them approached, they finally saw clearly what was going on in front of them, Cao Xuan originally thought that maybe there was some friction between several soldiers during training, but in fact, this is also a very normal thing.

But what he didn't expect was that the two people who had a conflict were not only a few ordinary soldiers, but even his two generals were all implicated.

I saw that at this moment, Zhou Cang and Hu Che'er were fighting for red faces, behind Zhou Cang there was a group of infantry with shields and knives, Zhou Cang Nahai'er was behind Hu Che'er, and there was a group of people helping Hu Che'er, it seemed that everyone thought they were reasonable.

Zhou Cang and Hu Che'er are both military generals, and they also have a violent temper, arguing and arguing, the contradiction has become more and more acute, and the two are about to fight, but at this moment, Chen Hu rushed over, and a Xuanhua big axe smashed between the two of them, and then looked at the two of them and scolded loudly.

"I said you two boys, you're not going to stop, are you?" At this moment, Chen Hu's eyes were full of anger when he looked at the two, because this kind of thing was not the first time, I remember that a few days ago, Zhou Cang and Hu Che'er directly caused trouble to him because of a trivial matter, and Chen Hu was not good at dealing with this kind of thing, so he was also a big two.

However, since there is a contradiction, it must be resolved, Chen Hu exudes the breath of his whole body, and the momentum of the sevenfold martial arts immediately suppressed Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang, after all, Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang's martial arts are both martial arts sixfold, and the boss here is still Chen Hu, so the momentum of Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang was immediately extinguished.

After Chen Hu suppressed the arrogance of these two people, he then pointed his finger at the two of them and said viciously: "I warn the two of you, everyone is a comrade-in-arms in the barracks, and they will go to the battlefield together in the future, don't have anything to do to find some contradictions, now you look at these soldiers behind you, they have all learned to stand in line, the two of you have caused a very bad atmosphere, tell you, it's best to give me some restraint in the future, if I find out again, I will not spare it, now give me a go!" ”
