Chapter 425: A Thousand Miles of Official Road

No problem, no problem!

More than 30,000 wounded soldiers of the Sui army who suffered from the pain of water and soil adaptation, as well as insect bites and snake bites and miasma, after Wu Hou Lei Hu had mercy and cured their injuries, he naturally had no face to refute or refuse Wu Hou's small request.

At this time, although the etiquette and music are not happy, but the folk customs are simple but not false, the moral quality of ordinary people is still on the standard line, and most of the real shameless people are from rich and prosperous families, so there is no need to mention more.

Lei Hu is not only a great master of inner boxing, but also a miracle doctor.

With his meticulous understanding of the body, coupled with his own foundation in traditional Chinese medicine, he was already a master of traditional Chinese medicine in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.

When he arrived in the world of the Red Mansion, he had the method of soul exploration, and with many years of combat experience, his medical skills went further without the slightest hindrance.

In the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, he had been worshipping under the Baozhilin Sect, and he was quite familiar with various traditional diseases in the Lingnan area, but according to the physical fitness of the world's natives and the different diseases of the world, he changed the prescription and measurement, and it was easy for the more than 30,000 Sui soldiers who fell to recover from the wounded.

Then, these more than 30,000 Sui army sergeants were mobilized.

If you want to gather so many young and strong laborers at one time, in addition to the imperial court in the Central Plains, only the top gate valve families have such strength, but in the south, the Lingnan Song valve has such strength, and the rest of the scholars do not have such ability.

It's not that they don't have enough money, it's that the southern region is seriously underpopulated.

Young and strong labor is the main force in the production, life and operation of a place, once too much is transferred, it is likely to affect the normal production order of a place, as long as the brain is not confused, the general high-level elite will not do such a stupid thing.

Even Lei Hu, who has 500,000 people under his command, does not dare to easily transfer 30,000 young and strong people to build infrastructure such as road and bridge construction full-time, and if it is not good, it will cause a big mess.

He had also pondered before that when Yang Jian took away the main force of the Sui army and there were not many external threats to the territory, he would organize his subordinate generals to take turns to participate in infrastructure construction, so as to speed up the development of the territory and completely connect the territory with roads.

In this era, the road traffic in the south can only be described by a pit character.

It is good that there are water routes, but the quality of land roads is really bad, and there are rugged mountains and forests everywhere, and if you want to repair the roads that connect all places, you have to make a lot of efforts.

With the situation of the Chen court in the south at that time, the weakness of the organizational ability can be imagined, and there are also the strong and powerful local scholars who hinder it, and it is impossible to improve the road transportation in the south.

It is also along the waterway, connecting several prosperous cities and places where grain is produced, and the standard of the road is quite bad, and it is not qualified in the eyes of Lei Hu.

At the moment, the 30,000 wounded of the Sui army happened to be idle, and they were directly invited by Lei Hu to open the road of vigorous infrastructure construction led by Wu Hou.

The distance from Qiantang to Jiaxing, and from Jiaxing to Gusu is approximate, with more than 200 miles, which just connects the most important towns in the entire Wuhou territory by roads.

There are many people to do things, Lei Hu not only wants to build roads and bridges, but also wants to open up more fields to supply the food consumption of the people and the army in the territory.

At this time, in the southern land, there were many trees and flowers outside the town, and Lei Hu did not mean to waste it at all.

More than 30,000 Sui soldiers built directions along the road designed by Lei Hu, and collected all the flowers and trees along the way.

Wood has a variety of uses, even flowers and plants can be used for medicine, even if it is not good, it can still be used as fuel, in short, we will not waste these seemingly useless resources.

Then, an official road from Qiantang to Jiaxing was completely perfected from the beginning to the beginning at an astonishing speed, but it took only ten days.

More than 200 miles away, the tasks scattered to the 30,000 Sui army soldiers, one person only needs to be responsible for the road cultivation of ten or so meters.

Even in modern times, when physical fitness is extremely poor, a person who wants to complete the construction of a gravel road ten meters long and five meters wide will not take a month at most to complete it without shortage of materials and rations.

The physical fitness and strength of the Sui army and the Han are not comparable to the personal guards of Lei Hu's subordinates who have achieved great achievements in cultivating iron cloth shirts, but they are not comparable to the physical fitness and strength of modern people.

What Lei Hu needs to do is to order his subordinates to cultivate the iron cloth shirt and the guards to open the mountain and rubble, bulldoze all the hills along the road, and provide a large amount of gravel to tamp the road foundation to make the road that has just been repaired more solid.

The three thousand guards exerted their might, and they simply regarded the earth mountain as nothing, and a hundred-meter hill could not withstand their tossing for a day, so it turned into gravel and hard soil and became the material for filling the road.

If it weren't for the dense water network all the way, and a lot of time was wasted laying the bridge, I am afraid that this 200-mile gravel official road would have been built more quickly.

But this is the case, when the 30,000 Sui soldiers who participated in the labor came back to their senses and saw that they had built an official road with a length of about 200 li and a width of five li and all paved with gravel in just ten days, they couldn't help but let out bursts of cheers, and their faces were full of happiness, which did not seem to be fake at all.

At the same time, they were also shocked by the strong strength of Wu Hou's three thousand personal guards.

Especially the arrogance and domineering of Wu Hou's three thousand guards bulldozing Tushan, and the powerful power of opening the stele and cracking the stone, I feel cold when I think about it, and I feel jealous, and at the same time, I have a little more understanding of Wu Hou's strength.

Sure enough, it is worthy of being the self-leading military power, and the princes who have the ability to stand on their own in the territory of the Great Sui Dynasty, and the strength of the army under them is staggering.

However, these have nothing to do with small roles like them, and they are issues that the top management of the Great Sui should consider.

With the previous experience of road construction, the road from Jiaxing to Gusu was built very smoothly, the same more than 200 miles, it took less than ten days to complete the construction, and there was no problem with the quality of the road.

Within a month, the official roads from Jiaxing to Hucheng (now Huzhou) and from Hucheng to Qiantang were all repaired, and the traffic conditions in the entire Wuhou territory became smooth at once.

The 30,000 Sui soldiers and soldiers, as the main laborers, looked back at this time and saw the spacious and solid official roads, they couldn't help but be excited, but they didn't expect that it only took less than two months, and they could easily complete such a huge project under the effective command of Wu Hou!

The four spacious official roads connecting the main towns of Wuhou's territory are thousands of miles away, but with their efforts, it took less than two months to complete, which is incredible to think about.

But this is the case, as long as the command is done properly, the manpower efficiency is maximized, and there are enough materials and logistics supplies, with 30,000 Sui soldiers and soldiers, such a huge project can be made!

The most surprising thing was the local nobles, who watched the four spacious official roads grow from scratch in less than two months.

was stunned by Wu Hou Leihu's methods for a while, and some of the careful thoughts in their hearts were suddenly extinguished, and at the same time, the four newly built official roads let them see the rolling source of wealth.

If you want to get rich, build roads first!

This is true no matter which time and space it is placed in any country or country, and the emergence of four official roads connecting the main towns of Wuhou's territory has played a great role in the economic development of Wuhou's territory.

Soon, business travelers slowly appeared on the four spacious and solid official roads, and the villages and towns along the official roads slowly became prosperous and lively.

When Yang Guang came to Wuhou Ling, he was also shocked by the sudden appearance of several spacious official roads.

And when he learned that these four official roads with a total mileage of thousands of miles were built by 30,000 wounded Sui soldiers, and it took less than two months, he was amused and depressed in his heart.

"Wu Hou is really a good means!"

When they met at the Hou Mansion in Qiantang, he didn't forget to joke: "Are those 30,000 soldiers still useful?" ”

"It's so easy to use, it's so easy to use!"

Lei Hu was not polite at all, and said with a smile: "If you can support it for a few more months, the changes in the territory will be even more amazing!" ”

"Oh, could it be that Wu Hou has other plans?"

Yang Guang became interested and curious: "I don't know if I can tell you?" ”

"Nothing!"

Lei Hu smiled: "After all, the land route is not as convenient and fast as the water route, and if possible, I want to connect all the major rivers in the governance!" ”

Sizzle......

Hearing Lei Hu's thoughts, Yang Guang couldn't help but gasp, and said in shock: "That kind of project is much bigger than road construction, Wu Hou is really courageous!" ”

"It's a pity that the King of Jin is here, and I can't support these 30,000 Sui soldiers!"

Lei Hu smiled, you are not the emperor now, naturally you don't have that ambition, and when you become the emperor, what you do is much crazier than Lao Tzu.

He wasn't interested in talking to Yang Guang about something, so he asked directly: "King Jin suddenly came, what are you doing?" ”

"Does Wu Hou know about the Lingnan War?"

Speaking of business, Yang Guang's face was solemn, and his tone was indescribably solemn.

"Oh, is Your Majesty still ready to continue fighting?"

Lei Hu asked curiously, but he was a little amused in his heart.

Yang Jian suffered a lot in Lingnan, and was beaten to shame by Song Que led 100,000 coalition troops.

The original 300,000 Sui troops have now been less than 150,000.

This is still a powerful general of the Sui army, although he was repelled by Song Que again and again, he has never collapsed, and he can still maintain his basic combat strength, so Song Que does not dare to be too unscrupulous.

Obviously, Yang Jian was very dissatisfied with such a battle situation, and he also had the intention of retreating.

No, Yang Guang came, and brought an unexpected news: "This king received an order from his father and is ready to take over the command of the Lingnan war, and wants to ask Wu Hou for advice, is this war going on?" ”

"This, King Jin should have a plan in his heart!"

Lei Hu said indifferently: "I won't be ugly!" ”

Seeing that Wu Hou was not in the trap, Yang Guang was not angry, and said directly: "This king is here to ask Wu Hou for a favor!" ”

"If you can help, you will do your best!"

Lei Hu smiled lightly, and didn't say anything to death, but he didn't promise that he would agree.

"This matter, Wu Hou is the most suitable!"

Yang Guang said with a smile: "Please ask Wu Hou to help set up a line with the Lingnan Song Valve, this king wants to stop fighting!" ”
