Lee* crouched in front of ten logs placed side by side, rubbing back and forth like a baby, and his mouth couldn't stop smacking, as if a greedy miser was looking at the gold he had treasured for many years. He was very glad that most of the vegetation in the Yanzhou area had not been destroyed in this era, and he actually found this 21st century national second-class protected plant on Fenglin Mountain.

The ten felled logs placed in front of him are ash, also known as ash, which is often used as furniture wood in later generations, with good flexibility, high hardness, smooth wood grain, and is a high-quality wood for making ancient spear barrels.

The wooden sticks used by the soldiers of Team C are not to mention the rough wood, the flexibility is not enough, and the brittleness is too high, which is even more frustrating. Li had long had the idea of changing all of his troops, but the training schedule was too tight and it took him a lot of time to settle the displaced people, so he didn't have time to start thinking about the change of clothes until mid-November. The soldier's armor Li Bin had promised to help, but he didn't know where he was going to get this kind of equipment, which was currently a scarce resource everywhere. But now that Li Bin patted his chest, Li * no longer worries about this issue.

There are some good weapons in Yanzhou's arsenal, such as lacquer guns and wooden guns, but Li *, as a team officer, can only go in and choose a weapon for himself, and it is absolutely impossible to make fifty at once, Gao Shaoji will not give him such a note. There were only eight horses in total, and the lacquer guns were actually of little use, and the main thing Li * coveted was the bundles of wooden guns that were moldy and rusty in the arsenal. But greed is greedy, and now he doesn't have the ability to get these treasures out.

But by accident he found a ash on the bank of the Yan River, and then found a large number of such trees on Fenglin Mountain, this discovery really surprised him for several days, with this treasure in his hands, as long as there is enough iron, he can completely imitate a large number of ash rods, the quality of this gun is far above the ordinary wooden gun, with this thing, the soldiers of the C team are no longer bare-handed.

After the long conversation that day, even though Qin Gudang patted his chest and wrapped the grain that Team C needed for a year, in fact, the next day, a team of officials escorted twenty ox carts carrying grain to the foot of Fenglin Mountain.

After Li * settled the displaced people, he set up a checkpoint on the Qin Straight Road at the foot of Fenglin Mountain, and checked the resumes and occupations of the past displaced people one by one, Qin Gu sent a county copywriter to help, and in half a month, Li * recruited more than 20 peasants who had lost their land in this way, and these peasants who had been driven out of their homes by the party were very happy to have a place to be tenants to tide over the difficulties. Among the displaced people that Li* had taken in beforehand, there were a large number of idle laborers who were willing to help Li*'s tenants reclaim the land that had not been cultivated for several years during the days they had been living in Fenglin Mountain, before the first snow of winter fell.

The rest of the refugees began to build houses on one side of the camp using tools made by carpenters, and even though it was already cold, the refugees threw themselves into the construction work with great enthusiasm, in their own words, not only to repay Li * for saving his life, but also to keep themselves from having to eat for so long. In a blink of an eye, the movement of raising idlers turned into cash-for-work, which was unexpected by Li* and Zhou Zhengyu.

Zhou Zhengyu's chicken farm was officially opened, and 100 hens were kept in the two largest rooms in the barracks, and some women and elderly people took the initiative to take care of the hens. In order to avoid the economic losses caused to the team by the occurrence of chicken theft, Li* specially set up a sentry at the gate of the chicken farm. It's been a long time since the army has seen meat, and these crazy soldiers can't tell when they'll come to fight the chickens.

On the third day of the official operation of the chicken farm, the soldiers of Team C were surprised to find that they had an extra egg per person in their breakfast, which really made the officers and soldiers excited for a while.

Zhou Zhengyu is indeed a good hand in housekeeping, just ten days after the operation of the chicken farm was on track, he began to take some of the old people and children in the refugee group who could not do heavy work to the river to fish for spearfish, as a result, that night, all the soldiers drank the fragrant fish soup, although there was no oil, but the soldiers still drank the two large pots of soup to the point that there was not a drop left, even the fish bones were chewed and swallowed.

The troops' queue training has been completed, and they have officially transferred to physical fitness and combat skills training, and they have begun to carry out armed cross-country, climbing, push-ups, sit-ups and other training subjects with a large amount of exercise every day. Every afternoon, Li * himself gave literacy lessons and military discipline to the soldiers, while Shen Chen explained Sun Tzu's Art of War.

It was very difficult for these soldiers, who had basically no cultural foundation, to accept these things, and basically every day they could remember one-tenth of what they said, and they would be so happy that they couldn't sleep.

Li * firmly believes that even if his current efforts do not have any effect, he must persevere, and as a person from the 21st century, if he wants to change this era, he can only hope for the people of this era themselves. The idea of solving everything alone is stupid and unrealistic. I may have some advantages over ordinary people in this era, but it does not mean that I can easily defeat the people of this era with these advantages.

As a traverser, the only thing Lee* can do is to sprinkle some kindling, and whether these fires can be finally ignited depends on many objective circumstances, and in this era of only four or five million people in the country, the extremely low productivity is a problem that no one can avoid. It is almost impossible to build a completely new army under such conditions. Yet Lee* is now doing something almost impossible.

Even if it's a foolish man who moves mountains, Li * thought to himself, what else can I do?

Li * believes that he did this not because he felt that it was beneficial to himself or Li Bin, but because such an army was really needed in this era.

The armies of this era are often synonymous with terror and killing, and the only way to stop these acts of terror and murder is to rely on a new army that is completely out of this era.

This is the paradox that Lee derives.

I created something that didn't belong to this era, but I wanted to make it with hope.

Li * himself does not believe in the nonsense of "civilized division" and "mighty division", after all, the army is a war machine, not for showmanship, but after seeing the army of this era, Li * has to admit that in comparison, the army he was originally in can definitely be called a "civilized division" and "mighty division".

The reason why Li * is not in a hurry to expand the army for the time being is, first, that he does not have enough equipment in his hands, second, that the Yanzhou side has only given him a squad of troops, and third, judging from the current training situation, once there are more soldiers, he alone will not be able to keep busy. Although Shen Chen knows some military techniques, he does not know anything about the training mode of the 21 st century, and before he completes the training of this group of soldiers, Li * does not plan to expand the army on a large scale for the time being.

Secretly, Lee* is still quite confident in himself, and he believes that the progress so far has exceeded his initial expectations.

He was confident that as long as this batch of soldiers was trained, the so-called more than 2,000 people of the Zhangwu Army would be useless in front of him.

He has a time bottom line in his heart, and January of the year after tomorrow, that is, January of the third year of Guangshun, is his last time bottom line.

Because Gao Yunquan will die at that time, and Gao Shaoji will take the opportunity to launch a mutiny at that time, Li Bin's whole family will be wiped out by this guy with a beast's heart.

This is the history of the past......

But at this moment, I came, I was in Yanzhou, on the Pagoda Mountain......

Li Bin is my savior, the one who gave me a second life......

For this reason alone, this history, which should have happened, should be changed!

……

The arrival of Zhecongruan added a strange color to the situation in Guanzhong at the end of the fifth dynasty, and the famous general of the world who entered the customs under the banner of shocking the party did not enter the city after arriving at the Pizhou Zhizhi, but was stationed on the west side of the road in the northeast of Sanshui County, where the Fuzhou army built a large camp, and Hantong of Shaanzhou Jiedu received a letter from Zhecongruan a few days later, and was ordered to transport grain and straw materials to the Sanshui camp.

The entry of the Zhijia army into the customs is undoubtedly the most important political event in the Guanzhong area in the first year of Guangshun, and the importance of this matter is even far greater than that of the party's determination of the difficult army to pay tribute to the Taiyuan side. Although the Zhejia army only came with 3,000 troops, it was a far more dangerous military force than the party members in the north for the large and small feudal towns in the Guanzhong region.

No one knows what the real purpose of the Zhejia army is here, although Zhe Congruan does not garrison Pizhou, and shows a low-key attitude that he does not want to compete with Hou Zhang of Pizhou, but the princes of the audience still can't rest assured. After all, as long as the Zhijia army is in Guanzhong for one day, it will be more convenient and convenient for the Later Zhou court to cut the domain. Even the Shuofang army, which has the strongest strength among the feudal towns in Guanzhong, does not dare to hold up in front of the world-famous Zhejia army, and in comparison, the party members are simply not the same thing.

Zhe Congruan also seemed to know the attitude of the Guanzhong family towards him, so he has maintained a low-key attitude of not sending troops or visiting guests since entering the customs.

Until the first day of December, a heavy snow has fallen, on this day, the oldest qualified festival envoy in Guanzhong area, stationed in Jingzhou, Changyi Army festival envoy Shi Kuangyi dragged his old body to Sanshui to visit Zhecongruan, two old men around the stove to enjoy a day of snow, drank a day's wine, gossip from Zhu Quanzhong to Liu Zhiyuan, Shi Kuangyi then returned happy.

As a direct result of this snow appreciation, Shi Shizhong developed a high fever on the night he returned to Jingzhou, and it is said that he caught a cold from the wind.

On the second day of Shi Shizhong's fever, several fast horses galloped to Tongzhou, Lingzhou and Yanzhou respectively.

"Old man Shi said that Zhi Congruan's spirit is fine, his body is healthy, but he can hardly speak to people normally with heavy hearing, is this old guy's words reliable?" Gao Shaoji stood in front of his father's couch and asked with a frown.

Since getting the news that Zhe Congruan was going to come to Guanzhong, Gao Yunquan and Gao Shizhong immediately became "sick" and bedridden, and all the civil and military officials in Yanzhou asked to see him, of course, his own son was an exception.

Listening to Gao Shaoji's words at this moment, Gao Yunquan frowned: "You speak respectfully, Shi Jimei is a senior, and when your father was nothing, he had already opened the town building festival." He went to Sanshui this time, he was entrusted by a few of us to find out the wind, he is also such an old person, it is not easy to go in the wind and snow. What kind of person are you to call him an old man, an old fellow? Don't forget, your dad is an old man and an old guy now......"

Gao Shaoji pursed his lips, bowed his head and replied: "Yes!" ”

Gao Yunquan stroked his forehead a little tiredly: "Shi Jimei is not easy to coax, after several ups and downs, he is also an old man." According to his letter, Zhi Congruan can hardly talk to others, and only his son seems to be able to reluctantly answer, so whatever he says is passed down from generation to generation by Zhi Deyuan......"

Gao Shaoji sneered: "Don't be learning Sima Xuanwang with the surname Zhen, right?" ”

Gao Yunquan shook his head: "No, the last time Li Bin came, the letter sent by the envoy of the house in Beijing also said that he had lived alone with his son in Beijing for a long time, so he even closed the door to Fan Wensu's visit, maybe it was because of this symptom." ”

Gao Shaoji said: "What does the imperial court mean by sending such an old man who is almost abolished to Guanzhong?" ”

Gao Yunquan glared: "Even if he is abolished and useless, the three thousand Fuzhou soldiers are real, and Zhe Deyuan has not been ......abolished yet."

Gao Shaoji was taken aback: "Dad, do you mean that Zhe Congruan is here to grab land for his son?" ”

Gao Yunquan shook his head: "I don't know, it's hard to say!" Didn't the Di newspaper say that the third child of the folded family took over the position of Fuzhou Jiedu. The fifth child hasn't been settled yet......"

He pondered for a moment and said leisurely: "If there is a vacancy in Guanzhong at this moment, what do you think the fifth will do?" ”

Gao Shaoji gave a cold war: "Their father and son are eyeing their father and Shi - Shi Shi has ......"

A sneer appeared on Gao Yunquan's face: "If you come for a long time, I'm never sure, if it's only one Origoro, hehe, I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat your father......"

……

In Suizhou, in the heavy snow, more than ten riders rushed along the Suixia Road looming in the snow.

The soldiers at the head of Suizhou City suddenly became vigilant, and with the sound of "woo-", a feathered arrow was obliquely inserted into the frozen ground in front of the head of the horse team.

More than a dozen knights stopped abruptly, and the man who led the team raised his hand and took off the hat on his head, revealing a resolute and cold face, and the extremely conspicuous beard and an inch-long scar under his left ear immediately made the soldiers on the city tower recognize the person.

As the officer on the city tower raised his left hand, the gate of Suizhou slowly opened, and more than ten horsemen galloped into the city.

In the state office, Suizhou Zhizhou Tuoba Yilin knelt down on one knee and saluted the man with a scar under his ear, and said: "Welcome to the king——"

The visitor in the heavy snow is the real master of the four states of Yinxia, the great chief of the party and the clan, and the envoy of the difficult army to Tuoba Yiyin.

He strode into the inner hall, waved his hand and said: "This king of Longxi was sealed by Emperor Guo of Bianliang, I didn't admit it, don't call people before and after!" ”

Tuoba Yilin answered, waved his hand, several soldiers had already served the scalded liquor, Tuoba Yiyin took it and drank it all, pursed his lips to let the wine slowly melt in the body, flowing into the limbs that were almost frozen, for a long time, Fang was satisfied and gently relieved, and asked: "Why do you want to close the city gate, there is movement in the direction of Yanzhou?" ”

"No, I sent a scout sentry near Luguan, if Yanzhou makes a move, we will know!" Tuoba Yilin replied.

"Then why do you want to close the gates?"

"Although this snow came at a very bad time, but it is the same for Zhecongruan's spies, I have calculated, Zhecongruan should send spies to Suizhou within three to ten days of arriving at the station, if the city gate is open, although there is an investigation, but it is inevitable that the people of the Zhe family will be mixed in. The city gate was closed, and the enemy's spies came to Suizhou but could not enter the city, and it was impossible to survive in this kind of weather in the wilderness......"

"But this also turned away the businessmen who were doing business...... "Tuoba Yiyin shook his head.

"This snow came too early, we are not having a good time this winter, if we don't let the merchants in, I'm afraid that we won't survive next summer, and our food will not be enough......" Tuoba Yiyin's face became more and more gloomy.

He looked at the snowflakes that were still floating outside the window, rubbed his face and said: "The Liu family in Taiyuan asked us to cut off all business and trade with the Guo family in Bianliang, and I have discussed it with the chiefs of various departments, this matter cannot be done, it will trap our own." We still have to do private mutual markets with Yanzhou, Yanzhou, and Lingzhou, we have to survive, and Taiyuan can't give us anything for the time being. ”

Tuoba Yilin raised his eyes and glanced at his brother: "That's natural, but how to deal with it over there?" ”

Tuoba Yi Yin smiled: "Don't pay attention to him, they are still counting on us to send troops to Fuzhou next year, and they will not take the initiative to turn against us at this time." ”

"Do you really want to send troops to Fuzhou next year?" Tuoba Yilin was taken aback, "Zhecongruan is facing Suizhou in the south......"

Tuoba Yiyin sighed: "Originally, I was going to send troops, but now it seems that it will not work, and we will still have to grab a handful under Ruan's nose in the spring next year......"

“…… Otherwise, this winter will be the most difficult winter for us since the fourth year of Changxing......" said the man in a harsh tone.
