After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather gradually became cooler.

It was already time for the autumn leaves to wither, Zhao Chen, Wang Shu, Yu Yunwen and others left Wugong County and headed towards Fengxiang Mansion.

Along the way, they met countless young people building roads. Zhao Chen and others inspected their construction of roads. In this era, all that can be built is a stone road, Zhao Chen can see that these young people are building very seriously, and it can be expected that the road that will be successfully built in the future will be very strong.

This road will connect Wugong County, Fufeng County, Fengxiang Prefecture, Dasanguan, and Hanzhong, and this is the first road to be built. In the future, they will build more roads, including the road from Guanshan to Western Xia, the road from Hanzhong to Sichuan Shu, and various roads within Sichuan and Shu. When the time comes, the whole country will be in all directions.

These young people who build roads, they work very hard.

The weather had cooled, and the frost had begun to rise in the morning and evening, and the young men slept in the wilderness. The clothes on many young people were unusually thin, and along the way, Zhao Chen even ordered the soldiers in the imperial camp to take off their clothes and give them to these young people who were building roads.

On September 15, Zhao Chen and others came to Fengxiang Mansion.

Here, countless young people have gathered!

These young people are not the youth of the Production and Construction Corps, they are from Sichuan and Shu, and they are young people who have just been recruited by the imperial court in Sichuan and Shu!

Their number has reached 1.5 million, of which 700,000 remain in Guanshan, 500,000 in the northwest, and 300,000 will go to Western Xia and enter Lingzhou and Liangzhou!

They came here at the beginning of September and have been waiting for Zhao Chen for ten days!

They were waiting for Zhao Chen's reception, they wanted to meet the leader in their hearts before going to various places, to see the "red sun" that the Propaganda Department was promoting, and to see the person they asked for instructions and reported late every day!

As the sun set, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance.

The soldiers of the imperial camp are coming in this direction, and the leader is Zhao Chen.

The moment Zhao Chen appeared, there was immediately a commotion among the young people around Fengxiang Mansion.

Then there was a buzzing sound.

"That man, on a horse, he is Your Majesty!"

"Oh my God! Yes, he really is Your Majesty! We pay our daily respects to his portrait, and that is him! He is our leader, the reddest and reddest red sun in our hearts, the great majesty, the only saint, great man, and god man in this world! ”

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty is really! Oh, my God! I finally see Your Majesty! ”

"Long live Your Majesty! Banzai! ”

The young people around Fengxiang Mansion were shouting excitedly, and gradually the voices became louder and louder, and the voice of "Long live" was earth-shattering!

"Your Majesty has come to us!"

"Quick! Get out of the way and let Your Majesty pass! ”

Zhao Chen has come to the middle of these young people at this moment, and compared to the soldiers of the Production and Construction Corps, they look extremely young. But their loyalty to Zhao Chen and their belief in sacrificing for the country are exactly the same as those of the soldiers of the Production and Construction Corps, and they are also exactly the same as the soldiers of various armies.

Zhao Chen walked past the youth, and countless young people burst into tears.

When they were in Sichuan and Shu, they looked forward to seeing Zhao Chen every day, and now they finally met this person!

Countless people can't describe their feelings, and at this moment, there is nothing else in their hearts except Zhao Chen.

"Your Majesty, I finally see you!" Someone couldn't help but kneel down and bow down to Zhao Chen.

"Hurry up! You are about to enter the production and construction corps, and you must also become soldiers! In the army, there is no need to kneel. Zhao Chen helped the young man up and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I want to join the forbidden army, is that okay?" There was a young man who said loudly.

The sound of long live around was too loud, and Zhao Chen was concentrating to hear the young man's words clearly.

"If you perform well in the Production and Construction Corps, you will naturally be able to enter the forbidden army in the future!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely behave well! I must enter the army, I must establish meritorious deeds! The young man said excitedly

He walked through the youth, just as he walked through the youth of Hanzhong City. Countless young people came to his side, countless young people burst into tears, and countless young people hoped to be with him forever.

For the whole night, Zhao Chen was with the young people.

There are 1.5 million young people here, and this night, these 1.5 million young people have not slept.

Everyone was so excited that they couldn't sleep at all.

In the morning, when the sun had just risen, Zhao Chen came to the city wall of Fengxiang Mansion.

His eyes looked at the young man below, full of emotion.

This time, 1.5 million young people will be recruited, and the population pressure in Guanxi and northwest China will be greatly resolved. Moreover, after these people enter the Production and Construction Corps, they are re-educated in the Production and Construction Corps, and their thinking will undergo a radical change. Just as he said to Yu Yunwen that day, although the world is the world of the people of the world, in the final analysis, it is still the youth. Sooner or later, the young people will have to grow up, and sooner or later they will have to take over the country. Zhao Chen wants to make these young people all accept their own ideas, always follow themselves, and let these young people realize their political dreams.

"This time, there are still 300,000 people in the Guanshan Production and Construction Corps who have entered the army! Our military strength in Guanshan will be increased to 800,000! Among them, the soldiers and horses facing the Jurchens and King Kang will reach 700,000, which is a huge force, and we no longer have to fear the Jurchens and King Kang! Zhao Chen clenched his fists and said secretly.

The General Staff Headquarters has decided to recruit 300,000 people from the Guanshan Production and Construction Corps, and mobilization has been underway in various localities for some time now, and the best group of young people will join the army. The youth of the Production and Construction Corps are different from ordinary people, and they also have military training on weekdays, so they can no longer be regarded as ordinary recruits. Their qualities far surpass those of ordinary people, their bodies are excellent, they can use all kinds of weapons, they understand the principles of military discipline, and they will soon become warriors who can go to battle.

"The number of troops is 700,000, and this is still the fact that the General Staff Headquarters took into account the situation of the economic construction in Guanshan, so only 300,000 young people were recruited! In consideration of the need to achieve a balance between economic development and external expansion, the Military Aircraft Department and the General Staff Headquarters must not use all kinds of military force, otherwise, we can even expand the number of troops to 1 million or 2 million! Those youths are absolutely willing to join the army! Zhao Chen said secretly.

The young people below were still shouting excitedly, and some of them were saying goodbye to the people around them. They will go to various places in Guanshan, Northwest China, and Western Xia, and no one knows if they will see each other in the future. It was only at this time that their agitated emotions calmed down, and their faces showed a little sadness. However, they feel much less sad when they think that they can fight the heavens and the earth, that they can make meritorious deeds, that they can achieve many of the grand goals mentioned by the Propaganda Division, and that they can do more for the country and the nation.

Zhao Chen looked at the young man below, his mind seemed to be no longer here, and he didn't know where he was flying.

He suddenly felt that the country in front of him was a bit like the Great Qin after the Shang Dynasty reform, with a thriving national strength and a thriving military. Although the power of this country is not as strong as that of the Six Nations, its development rate is far faster than that of the Six Nations, and sooner or later it will annex the Six Nations and establish an unprecedented huge empire. He also felt that this country was a bit like the steppe that had just been unified by Genghis Khan, although there were still Western Xia, Jin, and Song in the south, and there were still powerful flower thorn zim in the west, and there were strong Kipchak steppe tribes in the north, but sooner or later, this country would destroy all enemies and be invincible across Europe and Asia.

"No, the current Great Song Dynasty is not only strong in force, but our economy is also extremely strong! After the implementation of the rent reduction order, the living standards of the peasants have undergone earth-shaking changes, and the country's economic strength has grown by leaps and bounds! From ancient times to the present, no dynasty has implemented rent reduction orders, and no dynasty has been able to restrict the exploitation of the peasants by the gentry in such a way! No other dynasty has built such a large water conservancy and a highway like this! The current Great Song Dynasty is like the Tang Dynasty in the era of Zhenguan's rule, the Ming Dynasty in the era of Renxuan's rule, and the Qing Dynasty in the era of Kangqian's prosperity! This country is booming in both culture and martial arts, like a giant dragon, which has risen into the sky! The rise of the Great Song Dynasty is unstoppable, this is a historical inevitability! The army and the people are united as one, trying to see who can be the enemy in the world. The countless young people of the Great Song Dynasty are united as one, which is enough to overcome everything. Western Xia is insignificant, Jurchen and King Kang are also insignificant, even heaven and earth must be conquered by us. Great Song, this is a powerful power that is rising......" Zhao Chen muttered to himself there.

He felt that his whole body was full of strength, and this power did not come from him personally, but from this country, from the millions of young people below, and from tens of millions of people in Guanshan, Hanzhong, Sichuan, Shu, and Northwest China. As the control of this country, he felt infinite power, this is the power of the country, the power of the country that is incomparable, thriving, comparable to the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties, and no one can resist the power of this country.

At this moment, in the distant land of the Central Plains, there is a withered scene everywhere.

A girl in white was riding on a horse and was walking slowly.

"It's another ruined village, and there's no one in it." Passing by a village, the girl spun around for a while and sighed softly.

For a whole day, she walked hundreds of miles, but all she saw was dead silence.

In the Central Plains, Henan, Lianghuai, more than 1,000 miles of ground almost do not see well-preserved villages and towns. For more than ten days, she had never seen a village or town with a population of more than 200 people.

It's just a few years, and there is a world of difference between here and Guanshan. Guanshan is full of vitality and prosperity, and here there is only decay. In fact, not only here, but also in the south of the Yangtze River is far less than that of Guanshan, Sichuan and Shu. If the place ruled by Zhao Chen is equivalent to the rising Great Qin and Mongolia, and the place ruled by Zhao Gou is like the Ming Dynasty ruled by Chongzhen. One is constantly developing vigorously, and the other is becoming more and more backward. Zhao Chen had already left Zhao Gou far behind.

"It's going to Kaifeng tomorrow, I don't know what Kaifeng has become now?" The girl whispered to herself.

It was already dark, and she continued on her way, until midnight when she stopped in a village. There was not a single living person in the village, and there were bones everywhere, so she sat cross-legged in a dilapidated room, closed her eyes gently, and settled down.

It wasn't until the next morning that she left the village.

Two hours later, she came to Kaifeng Mansion, the old capital of the Great Song Dynasty.

It was once the most prosperous city in the world, with a rich economy and a population of more than one million. The castle here is magnificent, and the scenery here is extraordinarily beautiful. From the capital of Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty to the shame of Jingkang, it has experienced a history of 167 years, and it is the center of the Central Plains and the place that countless Han people yearn for.

On that day, before waiting for the gate of Kaifeng City, there were already countless people and merchants coming and going, a lively scene, and the city was even more lively. But today, there is no one at the gate of this Kaifeng city. The gates of Kaifeng City have been broken, and the city walls have been broken.

The girl in white frowned slightly and entered Kaifeng City.

The city was quiet, full of weeds, and the bones of dead people could be seen in the middle of the weeds. Other than that, there is nothing else here.

Occasionally, the crows can be heard, giving people an unusually bleak and terrifying feeling.

However, there was no sense of horror on the girl's face, she only frowned slightly, and her heart was unusually sad.

"The capital of my Great Song Dynasty has turned into this appearance! It was as if there was no one in the city! The girl said softly.

What she didn't know was that there were countless rebels here in the first two years, and then the rebels went to Chang'an. After that, some of the rebels returned to the Central Plains, but most of those rebels went to Luoyang and Shangqiu. It's so dilapidated that no one lives here anymore.

In fact, the fate of Kaifeng is also extremely tragic, in history until after the Mongols destroyed Jin, the Southern Song Dynasty army went north, and the history is called Duanping into Luo. After the army of the Southern Song Dynasty entered Kaifeng City, only 300 households were found in Kaifeng City, and half of these 300 households were Jurchens and Khitans. How far is this once the largest city in the world ruined?

Although Kaifeng is dilapidated, the scale is still very large, and the girl even came to the original Great Song Palace and stayed here for a long time. It was here that she spent the night.

Excuse me. There are only two watches today... Sorry, sorry, I can't finish the third chapter today
