Don't think too much, although the body has become younger and even a little non-human, and the hormones are also secreted more vigorously, Luo Kaixian's body is still installed with the soul of the old man who has gone through war and ups and downs.

The old man may find an excuse to find flowers and willows to adjust his mood, but he will never give up his principles and ethics easily, especially a special professional "old man" like Luo Kaixian, all emotions such as rigidity, stubbornness or indulgence, and wildness can be switched according to a plan like a plug-in.

So he tried his best to adapt and follow the customs of this era, instead of taking it for granted that he was powerful and had no scruples.

He was not a man who was accustomed to indulging himself, in other words he was the kind of person who had to sleep with one eye open, and he was almost asleep in the tent full of women's warmth in his constant alertness, and his spirit was too tired.

There is a saying - rest is to move forward better, and this is absolutely suitable for Luo Kaixian.

The small talk with Li Ji was first regarded by Luo Kai as a rest method to relax and adjust his thinking, after each break, there will always be some new ideas, and then he will pick up the short-term can be implemented to make slight adjustments, of course, it is he who uses his brain and mouth, and the specific operation has its own person.

For example, for the safety of the camp, it was originally planned to set up a garrison camp around the camp, and then it was changed to dig around the nest (1) to set up a dark fort, of course, the nest is suitable for winter living, but there are two disadvantages, in summer you need to avoid heavy rain and water seepage, but in winter you have to guard against heavy snow overmanship, this kind of place in Hexi is not as good as the south, when the winter blizzard comes, the accumulation of snow a few feet deep is not a joke.

In addition, a few mounds were selected as the garrison points of the ballista battalion, and the inside of the mound was completely hollowed out into a cave, and then a gas outlet was set up at the top of the cave, so that the place became a hiding hole for soldiers in winter and cool in summer, and the huge pine cannon was pre-buried according to the fixed angle of fire, and if the enemy broke through the patrol line of the cavalry battalion, the flying stones would definitely smash all the enemy's heads.

There are not many places that can be set up as ballista battalion garrisons, but fortunately, the mounds on the banks of the Yellow River are mostly sedimentary bottoms, and it is not difficult to dig caves, and there is enough timber and manpower, so it is also very convenient to build support structures.

Luo Kaixian wanted to set up a few brick and stone fortresses, but as winter approached, it was too late for the new brick kiln, and the materials dismantled from the original abandoned earth city had to be used for the workshop, so more ideas could only be given up temporarily.

With such a changeable idea, it is inevitable that people who don't understand it will be resistant, but since Silvan's departure, Luo has accumulated too much prestige, and this prestige has played a key role, and the soldiers who are the main force of construction have supported their main general with their actions.

Of course, all the soldiers refer not only to the soldiers of the old camp of Sylvan and the Han people who have been collected all the way, but also to the steppe tribes all the way, and even all the people who have surrendered to Polo City, whether they are the soldiers in the army of the Qarluq and Turkic people, or the subordinates of the party members who were originally destined to be martyred.

By the way, after the battle outside Polo City, after the original defeated soldiers were assigned to the battalions, they thought that they would be used as death squads or slave soldiers like other armies of this era, but on the way from Polo City to Lingzhou, all the treatment-equipment and diet are completely the same standard as the recruits, and there is no unequal treatment to be seen, just this can make them completely at home, not to mention the promotion standards without any discrimination, and it makes the low-level soldiers who have been oppressed by the nobility full of hard work, Of course, there should still be complaints, but it is human nature, because the extra-strict hygiene requirements and ubiquitous rules really torture people, and the endless training of tired people is the best way to temper people......

Although the changeable weather in late autumn has some impact, everything is still going on in an orderly manner, just like the persistence on the previous 10,000-mile journey.

The gale lasted only two days before it stopped, and the rest of the days were rare and sunny, or the weather was beautiful, and the travelers who had not returned far away tasted hardships, and the clear days lasted for another seven days, until the fourth day of October, when the first snow came, and all the civil work in the planning was over.

The almost completed wooden house camp is like a small city, with a thick wooden fence enclosing the perimeter and dividing the interior into different residential areas, just like the residential communities of later generations, the difference is that all the houses are made of wood, and the residential area has all kinds of school yards, collective warehouses, toilets, bath houses, tool houses, etc., in addition to special water points and garbage dumps......

All the newly built wooden houses are not the same size, the large ones can be hundreds of square meters, the small ones are only a few dozen square meters, but they also have a part of the stone structure, which is used for heating the fireplace and ondol, in addition to the independent use of the kitchen and washing room, the rest of the space is left to each family to plan, which is not something that collective labor can take into account.

Of course, there are pros and cons to everything, and the biggest advantage of a wooden house is that it is quick to build, but the disadvantage is that it is prone to fire, and it is really no joke to burn down the city.

Luo someone, who had no good way to do this, had to enforce that the spacing of each wooden house should be at least twenty steps, and the open space directly from each other was not allowed to pile up sundries, several old people had suggested that a workshop wall should be set up for fire like Tang Chang'an City, but after all, time and season and manpower were limited, so they could only be left to wait until the weather warmed up. Then it was set up by the gendarmerie everywhere, which was another improvement in the discipline of the camp.

This crude and rudimentary city did not have the gates and high walls of this era, only wooden fences and horses, and a large number of pits and waterways as defenses, but no one was concerned about the safety here, not to mention the various defensive points preset by Luo someone, and the wooden watchtowers set up everywhere around the camp were not easy to match.

Each watchtower is only less than 20 meters high, but it covers an area of nearly 50 square meters, and is divided into three floors, the lowest floor is where the sentries store their horses, the middle floor is used for rotation rest, and the top floor is equipped with bed crossbows and small throwing carts as defensive equipment. The distance between each watchtower is 200 paces, and the weapons placed on it can form a crossfire.

Because of the rush of time, the various arrangements can be said to be the best that can be achieved at the moment, although it does not fit the concept of the city of the people of this era, but it completely echoes the idea of Luo - in his opinion, if any enemy can really attack the camp, the bunkers and underground nests he has set up on the periphery are completely decorations.

Therefore, the four entrances and exits of the camp did not even have gates, but a few huge stones were piled up at each passage - these stones were originally scattered on the wasteland, most of these stones were granite, it was difficult to move, not to mention, it was also difficult to chisel, after the boulders were moved to the passage entrance, Luo Kai first made a suggestion, with the help of a few stones as the foundation, and then pile up some stones, with lime mortar to hook the joints, it became quite primitive stone houses, these houses can be used as the residence of the passage guard sentry.

At the same time, considering the identification function of the camp in the eyes of outsiders, the oldest old Li Tan inscribed the best stonemason to operate, on the big stones at the four entrances and exits, the words "Lingzhou" were carved respectively, and the words written by the spirited old Li Tan were a little trembling, with the craftsmanship of the stonemason, although the words carved out on the natural flat boulder were not neat and solemn, but there were quite some majestic, clumsy, rough and natural beauty, even if Luo was accustomed to the sense of order in the barracks, he did not have any dissatisfied thoughts.

The previous strong winds and sunny weather had made the newly built wooden house dry and livable, and the newly built earthen kang inside had completely dried up, allowing people to move in.

So, while the scattered snowflakes had just drifted away, everyone began to be busy with the matter of moving.

Because of the rush of time, the old people in the camp just hurriedly ordered people to set up an altar in the east of the newly built camp, and then slaughtered one cow, sheep and camel each as a three-animal sacrifice, after putting the offering table, by a few old people with guidance, Luo Kaixian was responsible for reciting the sacrificial words, except for a part of the garrison camp soldiers plus a representative from each family to participate, after the three bows and nine knocks to the heaven and earth, it is considered to have completed a simple sacrifice, and there is no need for any leader to speak, and directly start the relocation matters.

Of course, the relocation is also not so simple, and the action of more than 100,000 people will not be small.

Fortunately, after the run-in along the way, the eastbound battalion has formed a complete set of order, and it is not a real civilian who does not know how to self-restraint at all, which makes Luo Kaixian and the leaders of the private sector worry too much.

And it is said that it was relocated early in the first snow, in fact, when the wooden house was just started to be built one after another, the users had already been allocated, and the housewives of the private families had already moved their belongings into it, and this collective relocation was just a ceremony to allow everyone to move in.

It should also be noted that this wooden house area is said to be able to accommodate more than 100,000 people, but in fact, except for the logistics battalion and the medical battalion and the newly built women's battalion, including those soldiers who are scheduled to be newly married, the soldiers of the rest of the battalions have their own stations.

The garrison battalion was scattered all around, the scout battalion was also independent, and the cavalry battalion, which was located next to the horse farm, was completely in place a few days earlier.

However, it is impossible to say that it is orderly and disorderly, Luo Kaixian's main general residence also needs to be relocated inside, although there are more than 1,000 guards under him to help him, he also needs to keep an eye on and arrange all kinds of chores, and the managers of various private departments also need to be busy.

So the camp with a few pairs of eyes to supervise became more lively, the women's camp of the warbler Yanyan, the silent and somewhat excited women's barracks, and the bouncing boy camp...... The crisp voices of the women, the rough voices of the men, and the frolicking of the children are so lively.

This enthusiasm not only melted the early snow, but also made the land on the bank of the Yellow River, which had been silent for a long time, more fireworks.
