9. The autumn moon soldiers are approaching

Hearing the word "chop", a black exclamation mark suddenly surged up in Gao Yue's heart, no, I didn't say that I wanted to behead.

But it was too late, and in the eyes of the marching generals, killing some "troubled seedlings" was more common than eating and drinking.

The yellow wind rose under the high platform, and the city wall outside the Yacheng armor library was full of military officials, and the Yacheng gate was closed - the executing soldiers pressed a row of "chaotic soldiers" who "tried to rob the armor battle building" in public, and the hair bun was twisted, and then the knife light was one after another, and there was blood spilling over the neck, Gao Yue condescendingly saw that the human head was neatly separated from the body, like a few turns, they fell into the dust, blood and mud were mixed, and it became the color of yin red, and several wild dogs whined and ran.

After beheading 17 people in a row, the soldiers of the Jingyuan camp all knelt down, expressing their willingness to accept the military membership and go to Baiquan to build a city and open a tun, and the arrogance of Fang Cai was completely gone.

"Yes, if you want to be an official, go and draw some ......" Gao Yue held the horizontal knife given by Duan Xiushi, his lips trembled a few times, and he said this.

At dusk, on the edge of Yacheng, 4,000 "camp athletes" were pointed out and stood in a line under the nameless earthen hill.

Gao Yue stood on the guard and saw this team of camp athletes, they all looked at him with wooden eyes, waiting for the assignment of the task.

But next, Gao Yue announced "Yingtian Reward".

Originally, according to Gao Yue's idea, he first used the trumped-up charge of "robbing the armor tower" to flail several first offenders to kill chickens and monkeys, and then read out the reward of Yingtian in public, which is called the combination of grace and power.

But this is a good thing, Ma Di and their group of Anxi generals directly killed people like chickens.

Maybe this is the reality of the border town, even under Duan Xiushi's festival.

Perhaps everyone from the Jiedu envoy to the ordinary generals believed that the army could rely on violence, but in order to please and appease this group of soldiers, Gao Yue still consulted Duan Xiushi in advance and formulated a special camp field reward, only to see him read out:

"In the past, the military tun was awarded the medal after the completion of the examination, and now the commander has no treatment, which is no different from Bai Ding. Today is the completion of Tuntian, to get rid of the old style, to give the athletes benefits. Therefore, there are a total of 16 tuns and four forts in the Baiquan army, there are tun officials, the fort is placed in the generals, and the tun officials are pushed by the tun soldiers, the first test in July, what to test? Litun built a fort, 4,000 people set up the third class, took 12 people, two Zhuangcheng Gong, the first class, rewarded 150 silk cloth; Four people with obstacle merit, second class, 100 silk cloths; Six people worked hard, for the third class, and rewarded forty horses of silk cloth. In August and September, the winter wheat will be lowered, and in the second examination of the spring wheat in the first month of the next year, 4,000 people will be given the same third-class reward...... There is also money for repairing agricultural tools, which is equivalent to money for repairing military weapons, and if you are passive and sabotage, damage and loss of equipment, and bullocks, there are penalties for each. ”

This reward is not low, it is almost the same as the reward for the provocative and vanguard exploits in the battle array, so the 4,000 battalion field athletes who were drawn out of Jingyuan immediately began to fight bravely.

The next day, Gao Yue and the monk Mingxuan, who was equal to his own military division, stood under the scorching summer sun to supervise the construction of the fort by the athletes of the camp. ”

"Er Lang Wei, Er Lang Wei!" The camp athletes shouted slogans, first in groups, with calves to transport the timber of each mountain, with various tools to cut clean, set up four rectangular watchtowers, and then rammed earth to build walls in the middle of the connection, the middle is full of hard willow branches, both sides with soil plywood, soon only ten days, "Baiquan Fort", "Castle Protection", "Zhenyuan Fort" and "Gonghu Fort" will be rough, and then the athletes sweat and begin to build barracks, war sheds, small armor warehouses in the fort, the slogan of "Er Lang Wei" resounded all day and night around the boundaries of Baiquan.

"Songqing, why are you so tanned?" In front of the gatehouse that had just been built in Baiquan Fort, when his wife Yun Shao, who was wearing a hat, and Zhi Hui and Wei Daotian came to visit, Yun Shao lifted the veil with his hand, looked left and right, and suddenly his eyes were dark: Gao Yue was tanned, wearing only an inner undershirt, wearing a leggings slave, and was carrying wood with the athletes. Yun Shao couldn't help but feel distressed to the point of suffocation, he was a white-faced gentleman, and when he got here, he became a black "earth mountain", which was almost on par with Wei Daotian.

But after complaining, Yun Shao also worked with other women in the city to make cold tao and porridge in the craftsman field of the city building, and rewarded the athletes who built the city.

After another five days, the Four Forts were completed. In July, the monk Ming Xuan suggested that the farm tools should be prepared immediately, and the fields should be reclaimed in the land of Baiquan, and buckwheat and brassica could be partially sown first, and after the autumn of August came, wheat could be sown on a large scale and covered with green manure.

In addition, the monk Mingxuan also asked that all the springs in the Baiquan area be drilled several feet deep, and bricks and stones were built, a total of dozens of eyes, all connected by groundwater, and the pattern of the treadmill was drawn for Jingzhou craftsmen to manufacture, which was used to irrigate the fields, and the water could be endless.

Even the cloud fort is also in the list of additional repairs, not only the soldiers who defend have increased to 300 people, the bow and crossbow have been increased to 50, the well is dug for drinking, the grain of March is reserved, and two watchtowers have been added to the city wall, the beacon on it, the west can look at the bluestone ridge, the south can look at the Qingxi Ridge, Liangyuan, the east can look at the Baoding City, the north can look at the Gongchi Lake, and the newly built forts under it are all in full view.

But these days, the military situation in the northwest border is also tense day after day, and the "Autumn Moon Offensive" in Xifan is about to come.

In June, Ma Chongying, the general of Xifan, led 40,000 troops to Kouling Prefecture, destroyed the mouth of the three canals of the Han Dynasty, Shangshu and Yushi, and destroyed the Tuntian of the Shuofang army;

In July, 20,000 soldiers from Xifan were in Qingzhou and Yanzhou;

In August, in the western part of the country, the city plundered people and animals.

"Jingzhou, Jingzhou ......" Duan Xiushi muttered to himself, he didn't believe that Xifan, who had now become hideous and predatory, would deliberately put his Jingzhou aside.

Five years ago, when Ma Lan was still alive, he still remembered the bloody battle in the salt warehouse outside Jingzhou.

In September, the clouds flying from Longshan covered the land of Jingyuan, and among the military camps of Baiquan, the camp field athletes were standing in twos and threes in the vast fields to cultivate, stretching out to the distant ditches and ridges, and the wheat seedlings were like grasslands, spreading out boundlessly.

In front of Baiquan Fort, an athlete named Shi Fu did not work on time, violated the cantonment, was beaten ten times with a cane, and then flailed in the standing cage.

Gao Yue stood in front of him.

"Kongmu, please take off the flail." Shi Fu still stretched his neck and looked at himself, his pants under both strands were broken, and he still had a rogue smile in his mouth.

"You can take off the flail after ten days, and those who have not been able to take off the flail and die." At this time, Gao Yue punished the forbidden soldiers, and he also began to be hard-hearted.

"Kong Mu, please take off the flail, maybe Xifan will come to attack our Jingzhou soon, although my leg is caned, but I can still hold the bow!" Shi Fu continued to smile.

Gao Yue sneered, not believing Shi Fu's words at all.
