In February, the second dragon raised its head, if it is placed in the north, this month will often encounter the cold spring, the cotton clothes on people's bodies have not been taken off, and they may even freeze at night, but in the subtropical area of Yuezhou, it is the most comfortable time of the year, the temperature is not high or low, only a thin blanket can be covered at night, and even the annoying mosquitoes and flies are much less.

But in such a comfortable season, the battalion commander made Wang Dan feel very heavy, this day at sunset, he dragged his tired body down from the city wall as usual, behind him were more than 2,000 brothers under his command, under the illumination of the setting sun, so that the shadows of these people were stretched very long, but these people were also the same as him, one by one they were tired and shaking, their hands and faces and even their whole bodies were covered with mud, they looked like they had just come out of the mud, and the tools in their hands were all used as crutches, and they walked towards the camp step by step.

"General, we can't go on like this, it's impossible to build the half-collapsed city wall of Shenglong Mansion within a month!" At this moment, I saw a bearded general walking a few steps closely, came to Wang Dan and said loudly, a pair of big copper bell-like eyes were also full of anxiety.

"General, what Zhou Dabeard said is right, it is impossible for us to build the city wall in such a short time, and we work so hard during the day, and we can't recover at night, in case those Jiaozhi remnants kill us when we are exhausted, then we may not even have the strength to resist!" At this time, I saw another young general walking over, although this general's face was full of mud, but it could be seen from the vaguely recognizable facial features that this young general should be very handsome.

As soon as the handsome general's voice fell, three other generals came up to express their dissatisfaction with Wang Dan, and these five people were the five heads of Wang Dan's subordinates. Four of them graduated from military academies like him, but Zhou Dabeard was not, but he also notified the battlefield to fight hard to get to the current position, but although they came from different backgrounds, all five of them couldn't stand the order from above to let them repair the city wall.

"That's it!" Wang Dan suddenly glared at this time and said loudly, and then glanced at the few henchmen in front of him. Only then did he slowly speak, "I didn't know that this order from above was a bit difficult for strong people, but you forgot how it was taught in the military school?" We are all soldiers, and it is our duty to obey orders, and since this order has been given from above, there is naturally a reason why we must do it, so don't say anything, let the guy cook something delicious, and then everyone will rest early after eating. Strive to rush a little more tomorrow! ”

"Yes, we are soldiers and not labor, and we shouldn't have done these jobs in the first place!" At this time, the bearded man of Zhou was still a little dissatisfied and whispered, he was not a general who graduated from a military academy, and he was naturally inferior to others in terms of discipline.

"You talk a lot!" Hearing this, Wang Dan glared at Zhou Dabeard fiercely, then looked at the other helpless heads, and spoke again, "But although the order must be obeyed." But according to the actual situation, His Royal Highness the King of Wei will convene our battalion commanders and envoys for a while. I will put forward some opinions at that time, and I estimate that the other battalions will soon be unbearable, and when we join forces, it should make His Royal Highness King Wei change his mind. ”

Hearing Wang Dan's last words, Zhou Dabeard finally breathed a sigh of relief, they were originally the garrison of Yuezhou. But they were suddenly taken over by Zhao Hao, the king of Wei, and then they were ordered to assemble and rush to the already dilapidated Shenglong Mansion, what they didn't expect was that after coming to the Shenglong Mansion, Zhao Hao actually asked them to repair the city wall. said that he was going to fight to the death with the remnants of Jiaozhi here, and the construction period was very short, and it was impossible to complete the task on time, which also made all the generals very dissatisfied, but because of Zhao Hao's identity, the people below dared not speak out.

As they spoke, they finally returned to the camp, because the Thang Long Mansion was too dilapidated, and there were only more than 3,000 residents left here, which could not accommodate their army of more than 10,000 people, so Wang Dan and they could only camp in the ruins of Thang Long Mansion. However, as soon as they arrived at the camp, many soldiers behind Wang Dan immediately lay on the ground and couldn't get up, during this time in order to complete the above orders, they can really be called working hard, there have been many soldiers who have fallen ill due to overwork, and if they continue like this, I am afraid that they will not be able to wait for the remnants of Jiaozhi to attack, and they will have to die of exhaustion first.

"Don't lie on the ground and pretend to be a corpse, get up and move and then sit down slowly, and then drink some hot water, so that you won't be unable to get up tomorrow!" Wang Danqiang commanded his subordinates loudly, and when he was too tired, he should not immediately fall down and rest, otherwise it would cause damage to his body, which was the knowledge he learned in the military academy.

Hearing Wang Dan's words, Zhou Dabeard and several other heads also stood up strongly, and then kicked and scolded people to get up and move, Wang Dan also relieved when he saw this, turned his head and went to the gang leader, originally wanted to order them to make something delicious to treat the brothers, but the gang leader army didn't need his orders at all, they had already made three dishes of two meat and one vegetarian, and steamed rice, which was already the best food that the army could provide.

At that moment, Wang Dan called his soldiers up to line up to eat, smelled the fragrance of the food, these tired and half-dead soldiers finally regained a little vitality, washed their hands and faces one by one, and ate their own rice in a big gulp, and when they finished eating, the sky was already completely dark, and the soldiers threw their rice bowls and burrowed into the camp tent and soon snored.

Others can rest, but Wang Dan can't, after dinner, he didn't have time to change his clothes, and immediately rushed to the location of the original palace of Thang Long Mansion, compared to other places, the palace of the original Cochin Kingdom is still well preserved, it was previously regarded as the city lord's mansion of Thang Long Mansion, but after Zhao Hao came, the original city lord could only move out, and this became Zhao Hao's temporary residence.

This time, Zhao Hao came to Shenglong Mansion with a total of 13,000 people, of which 3,000 were the guards he brought from the capital, and were led by a battalion commander, and the remaining 10,000 were mobilized from Yuezhou, and were respectively responsible for four battalion commanders, Wang Dan was one of them.

When Wang Dan came to Zhao Hao's residence, he found that the other four battalion commanders had also come, but Zhao Hao had not yet come, but in addition to the high commander from the capital, the other three commanders were also covered with dirt and tired like him, in fact, except for the 3,000 guards from the capital who were responsible for daily vigilance, the remaining 10,000 local troops were all engaged in repairing the city wall.

"Danzi, how much progress have you made over there?" As soon as Wang Dan came in, he saw the one-eyed dragon sitting on the chair with a tea bowl and shouted at him, this one-eyed dragon surnamed Cao, was Wang Dan's classmate when he was in the military academy, and coincidentally the two were also separated when they entered the army, they lived and died together several times, and their feelings for each other were the deepest, and the egg was his nickname when he was in the military school.

"Don't mention it, it's been ten days, and I'm working hard but I've only completed one percent, how are you doing?" I saw Wang Dan sit next to Commander Cao's envoy and said, and then took a big gulp of the tea bowl.

"Yicheng, then you are really desperate, I estimate that I have only completed more than half of it, and now there are only twenty days left, even if we are tired to death, we can't finish it!" At this time, I saw the general sitting opposite Commander Cao sighed, this general is not tall, but extremely strong, he is the only firearms unit in the four teams, and he is very good at playing with firearms such as ballistas, artillery, and grenades, but let them pick up iron pickaxes to work is not as good as other armies.

"Dumb, how are you doing over there?" At this time, Commander Cao asked the tall and thin general sitting opposite Wang Dan, this general's surname is Ba, but he doesn't like to talk, so he got a dumb nickname, and he is also a general who graduated from the military academy, only one year lower than Wang Dan and them, but they have also met each other in the military academy.

"Ichisei!" Although he is also full of tiredness now, the Ba commander still sits up straight, looking like a javelin.

"That's miserable, the four of us are responsible for the four city walls, and the total progress has not reached one percent, it seems that we have to explain it to His Highness." Commander Cao stroked the holster on his one eye at this time, his eye was blinded by a Liao army when he attacked the sixteen states of Yanyun that year, if it weren't for Wang Dan desperately blocking three arrows for him, I'm afraid he would have died on the battlefield.

"Snort~" At this moment, I suddenly saw that the high commander who was sitting in the first place and had not spoken was chuckling, and then seemed to glance at Wang Dan and others with some disdain, he was born in the Jiangmen Gao family, that is, the maiden family of the Empress Dowager Gao, although he was not born in a military school, but because he has been serving in the capital, he can't help but have a feeling of superiority when facing local generals, which also makes him have no dealings with Wang Dan and others.

"What are you laughing at, don't think that a high surname can be superior, if you let a pampered son and brother do our thing, I'm afraid you won't be able to finish half of it!" Seeing the disdainful expression of the high commander, the Cao commander immediately slapped the table and said angrily, others are afraid that the high commander will make him not afraid, after all, he is also from the Jiangmen Cao family, although he is a side branch, but with the military merits on his body, it is not something that the Gao family can humiliate.

"The surname is Cao De, you are just a side branch, the Cao family has not a thousand but eight hundred for people like you, don't think that the Cao family will really stand out for you!" When the high commander heard the angry scolding of the Cao commander, he immediately said angrily, he really didn't take the other party, a side branch of the Cao family, in his eyes.
