The moon rises and the stars are dark, and the sky will be late. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Thirty miles east of Guzang City, on the side of the official road, there were three or four bonfires burning vigorously.

Zhang Jun sat around the fire with Song Pei, Suo Sanjie and Jiang Wan, nibbling on dry food. The four of them were silent, and Hu Shuo, Zhou Tong and the guards didn't speak, only the sound of chewing on steamed buns.

The firelight flickered, reflecting Zhang Jun's uncertain face.

In his previous life, Zhang Jun did not participate in surveying and mapping activities, and the only knowledge he had learned was in high school geography classes. As the saying goes, it is easier said than done, and he knew in his heart that he thought about the surveying and mapping work too simply. At the end of the whole day, let alone the expected goal of ten miles, it is not completed in three miles.

In the absence of modern surveying and mapping tools, there is no other way to complete this work with only the existing manpower and equipment!

Suo Sanjie pouted, his cheeks were full of food, he sniffled, tears rolled in his eyes, and said bitterly: "Lord, it's not that I can't endure hardship, but I'm really tired." ”

At this time, the autumn wind is tighter, and everything is bleak.

Zhang Jun nodded, he didn't expect the surveying and mapping work to be so arduous, but not only could he not complain, but he also had to boost morale and inspire!

He said in a deep voice: "It was Jun who was not thoughtful, and the three who suffered were harmed. ”

Song Pei saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly said: "This matter must be blamed on the lord, we are all surveying and mapping for the first time, and we have no experience, so it is inevitable to slow down." ”

On the side, Jiang Wan also made a gesture again and again. Song Pei translated again: "Ru Qing said that it was a little bitter, but after this whole day, I lived a very fulfilling life, and I also learned a lot of knowledge from the lord, some of which are really unheard of." In short, it is much better than sitting in Taixue. ”

"Ahem・・・・・・" Suo Sanjie said embarrassedly: "Lord, I am used to being lazy on weekdays, but I am a little unaccustomed to it, now that I think about it, what I did today is all something I never thought of before, and this is all due to the leadership of the lord." ”

"Haha." Zhang Jun was amused and said with a smile: "It turns out that Quan Bin is also a flatterer, but he is also very right." ”

"Hahahaha・・・・・・" Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Zhang Jun hit the railway while it was hot: "There will always be some discomfort on the first day, let's rest early tonight and make persistent efforts tomorrow." At the current rate, there will be three more days, and it will be done. When the time comes, I will personally ask the general for all of you! ”

"Major General Xie!"

"Thank you, lord!"

Just as everyone was about to say more, suddenly the sound of horses' hooves came from a distance. Immediately after, the hill not far away remembered the whistle of the guard on duty!

Suddenly, Zhou Tong responded with a whistle, then got up and turned over the war horse, took off the bow and arrow on the victory hook, and greeted him. Behind him, three other guards also drew their swords and followed closely with their horses.

The crowd stopped talking, and they all stood up and stared into the distance. Although it is located in the hinterland of Liangzhou and near the capital, thieves are still very rampant. In troubled times, there are people everywhere, and in this wilderness, we must not let our guard down.

Soon, two more short whistles sounded on the hill, which was a signal that the crisis had been lifted.

The atmosphere was relaxed, and after a while, I saw Zhou Tong and three guards rushing back with one person, but it was a messenger.

The pawn came to Zhang Jun's approach, turned over and dismounted, knelt down and said: "General, the small general Zhendong military order, tomorrow and the hour, the Chinese army will order troops, I hope the general will not miss the time." ”

General Zhendong is the veteran Han Pu. I didn't expect him to move so fast, and he would be raised tomorrow.

Zhang Jun instructed: "Give him some water and dry food, it's hard work." ”

The pawn thanked him with gratitude, but Zhang Jun's face was full of sadness.

Finally boosted morale, and the surveying and mapping work gradually became proficient, and he was on the right track, but he was asked to leave. Zhang Jun knew that when he left, he was afraid that the surveying and mapping would come to a standstill, and he couldn't help but feel depressed.

At this time, Song Pei came to him and said, "The lord is worried that the surveying and mapping will be delayed after leaving?" ”

Zhang Jun nodded slightly, but still explained: "Zeqing, it's not that I believe in only three people, but ・・・・・・."

sighed: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but I'm afraid that without me personally in charge, it will be even more difficult for you." ”

"Lord!" Song Pei bowed and said: "Don't worry, the lord is quite proficient today, Quan Bin and Ru Qing are also doing their best, and the method of 'contour line' that the lord said, although I have not fully understood it, I have generally understood it." “

"My lord, just rest assured, the three of us and the soldiers of the Protector Army will definitely complete your task!" Suo Fat also patted his chest and said.

Jiang Wan hurriedly gestured, and Song Pei translated: "Lord, Ru Qing also reassures you, if you don't understand, we can still discuss, even if we discuss it, we can't solve it, no matter how quickly we pass the book to you, we will never make a mistake." ”

"Okay・・・・・・" Zhang Jun hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Then leave everything to the three of you." With that, he bowed and bowed.

The three of them hurriedly avoided it, and Song Pei said: "Don't torture us, since we are determined to enter the scene, we will definitely complete the task of the lord." ”

Such an arrangement is also helpless. After all, the military order cannot be violated, if you miss the time to raise the account and count the troops, you will be punished with a cane at the lightest, beheaded at the worst, and you can't joke.

Zhang Jun had to order Zhou Tong to stay and help, and all the guards were left to help.

When everything was in order, he rushed to Guzang City with Hu Shuo and the Nafu guards.

Hurrying all the way to the city, the east has been white.

At this time, the city gate was closed, and Hu Shuo was in a hurry, so he stood outside the city gate and shouted: "Hey・・・・・・ the gatekeeper listen, open the door for me, the young general wants to enter the city!" ”

Zhang Jun's head was full of black lines in an instant, and before the hour came, it was useless for Zhang Mao to stand here and shout. He hurriedly called Hu Shuo back, found a small tree not far from the city gate, tied his war horse, and sat down against the roots.

Soon after, crowds of people from afar gathered at the city gate, some of them were woodcutters carrying firewood into the city to sell, some were travelers looking for relatives and visiting Jud, some were small merchants and peddlers, and some of them did not enter the city gate at the wrong time, and waited here all night.

At this moment, the originally orderly crowd was suddenly disturbed, and the voice gradually expanded, and Hu Shuo, who loved to be lively, leaned over.

I didn't think about it, but after only a moment, the voice became louder, and Zhang Jun faintly heard someone shouting: "It's not good, kill someone!" ”

How can I still sit still, Zhang Jun got up hurriedly and walked over quickly with the guards.

The house guard separated the crowd for Zhang Jun, and when he came to the middle, he saw two small servants dressed as domestic slaves falling to the ground on all fours, their necks twisted into a twisted shape at a strange angle, and they were already dead and could no longer die.

Looking at Hu Shuo again, he was half-squatting on the ground, protecting a five- or six-year-old girl in his arms, and there were blood marks on his back.

"What happened?" Zhang Jun said.

"Who are you?"

At this time, a person who looked like a steward walked up, and he saw that Zhang Jun was dusty and his clothes were not very luxurious, so he frowned and reprimanded: "This big man has blocked the way of my wife and killed someone, I advise you to be nosy, get out of the way!" ”

"Hu Shuo, what happened?" Zhang Jun shouted.

"They want to be street kidnappers, and if I don't like it, I reason with them, and as a result, they beat me up, and I fight back." Hu Shuo raised his head and argued.

"Yes, yes, how can anyone kidnap people in broad daylight, and besides, it's still a child・・・・・・"

"That's it, these people are too presumptuous, and there is no royal law."

Suddenly, the onlookers were discussing, all of them were unhappy.

"Fart!" The man in charge scolded, "You untouchables, my lord will teach you the rules today." ”

I saw him wave, and other house slaves behind him rushed up, some wanted to take Hu Shuo, and some simply picked up the whip and whipped the crowd of onlookers. For a while, there were shouts, shouts, begging for mercy, and cries.

"Smack!" Only this slap is the loudest.

Goodbye, the steward had fallen to the ground on his back, his face bulging with high red fingerprints, and a few teeth scattered aside.

Zhang Jun said coldly: "Master will teach you the rules today!" ”
