I didn't want the woman's eyes to suddenly look at the dog, and the dog's body suddenly shook, I couldn't believe it, and then suddenly jumped up and flew in front of the woman.

The dog knelt down on one knee and said, "Madame, please accept the little one, the little one thinks day and night, all he thinks about is to rescue Madame, Madam, you can return safely." ”

Xie Yu lifted the veil on his face, held back his joy, came up to help the dog, and said, "It's okay if you don't have anything, it's okay if you don't have anything, I'll take you back to Bashan......"

Zhang Fan and Wu Chuanyu walked side by side at the north gate of Tai'an City, followed by a group of big-headed soldiers, Geng Ruji was wearing his own green robe complement official uniform, and his complement suit was a white pheasant, which was the color of Cong Wupin's civil official, but behind him Zhang Fan and Zhang Jiayu did not wear the tonic clothes issued by the court, because they could be regarded as civilian soldiers, and for a while these things could not keep up, and these big-headed soldiers didn't care about these.

At this time, the endless flow of people is going in and out of the city gate, many porters carry mud blocks, bricks and stones in the city gate fifty steps away from the city to start to build a fort platform, the position of the fort is located on the left and right of the urn city, from the city wall stretched out of the corner tower is not far away, to ensure that in the place of one arrow, not only the crossbow arrow can be covered, even the bow of the two stones can also be shot. These forts are square in shape, and now the foundation has been laid, and the speed that can be seen with the eyes is increasing little by little, and in the discussion between Geng Ruji and a group of generals, this fort should be slightly higher than the city wall, so as to shoot the shield carts, trestle carts, and trestle carts hidden in the attacking city wall. There are also soldiers behind the large siege equipment such as shooting trolleys, on which four to eight bed crossbows will be placed, hiding about 100 crossbow arrows, as well as asphalt and some fire-starting things, this fort Taichung plans to station two killer teams, a total of more than 40 killer teams, each fort is also equipped with a little training of 50 people, in order to prevent the wandering militia from seizing control of the battlefield and can not send supplies to the fort, in the fort, there is also enough dry food for a fort for ten days.

About 20 such forts will be built around the wall, and now Tai'an Castle is being built on all sides.

Within the sight of many people, many deep holes are being built within the range of crossbow arrows and catapults from the city wall, and the people will dig these deep pits to a depth of about one and a half people. The shooting trolley fell crookedly in place, or let the attacking militia fall in, and all the pits were dug into a semi-inclined shape, and once people fell in, they would not be able to climb out, and all kinds of siege vehicles once the wheels on one side were trapped, they would immediately fall down, and then become a live target, and the soil of these pits, of course, was used to build forts, and when the pits were dug, they would be covered with mats, and then a layer of soil would be covered on them, and then many barbs and sharp stakes would be inserted underneath.

In addition, there are many people in the distance, dragging trees to this side, Zhang Fan said to Geng Ruji, cut down the trees within more than ten miles around Tai'an City, so that the militia can not use these trees to make shield cars, trestle bridges and other siege equipment, and in turn, the officers and soldiers defending the city use these things to make the trees that defend the city, barbs, for the trees that are not too far away and cannot be dragged over, Zhang Fan suggested that they be burned, and the enemy is not allowed.

There are also many people who make stakes into spurs, which are made of two main beams and many sharpened barbs, which are bound in a cross-shaped way, and then placed on the path of the siege, so that the opponent cannot organize a crowd to attack.

Zhang Fan saw some people inserting the barbs made upside down under the city wall, so he came out of the crowd and shouted: "Didn't I say it, these barbs should be inserted under the fortress first, and the other party will attack the city first, how did you listen to me a few days ago?" When the group of people heard this, one of them took the lead and shouted: "Lord, didn't you say that after the fort is repaired, you will insert barbs underneath? Now the fort has not been repaired, but there are a lot more barbs, and we can't wait." This man's words immediately angered a Minzhuang military commander who repaired the fort over there, and the Minzhuang military chief shouted: "We have already said that we will insert these barbs ourselves, of course the progress of our project will be slower, you specialize in cutting wood, the work is light, of course faster......"

Zhang Fan shouted: "After you have finished making the barbs, you will temporarily store them under the city and cover them with oilcloth. In this way, the two working groups stopped arguing.

Zhang Fan touched his head and said to himself: "If there are too many things, it is easy to make mistakes." "It turned out that Zhang Fan divided tens of thousands of people into several working groups, each performing its own duties, division of labor, daily progress, workload have different division of labor, such as a special digging work group, a digging working group is a gang, 20 people of Minzhuang, one of the team leader, with 20 people, a day's workload is three deep six feet, The deep pit with a radius of one zhang and two feet, the location of the pit was first marked by another working group of the training minister Yamen under the leadership of Geng Ruji, and after this working group completed the day's work, it could return home, and the food during the busy work was provided by the government.

In this way, everyone in a group understands that they can go home as long as they have completed the corresponding amount of work in the day. So everyone worked hard to get the job done as soon as possible. When they are done, they will be accepted by the acceptance team, and after passing the acceptance, they can immediately receive the day's grain and return home.

This greatly improves efficiency, a few days, Tai'an City Zhou does not know how many deep pits have been completed, before because all the people understand that no matter how much to do, anyway, it is a day, so twenty people can not dig a deep pit in a day, now according to Zhang Fan's acceptance team, the fastest digging pit working group actually completed a day's workload in three and a half hours, that is, three standards of deep resistance, this achievement made Geng Ruji open his mouth, Geng Ruji is a second list of Jinshi, and he has been an official for many years, and he has never seen this kind of practice。

However, it is not without problems, for example, the progress of the problem, a fort should be inserted under the three hundred and twenty barbs, these barbs should not only be inserted within three feet under the fort, but also the base of the fort, but when the working group that is repairing the fort is busy, another working group responsible for arranging the barbs rushed over, to arrange the barbs, which of course will make the two groups of people rip off, the group engaged in construction does not want the other party to get in the way, and the group of people who arrange the barbs want to finish the rations and return home quickly, so there are a lot of things that happen, and there is also the problem of uneven distribution of labor, and the problem of the entry and exit of several city gates, these are all things to be solved in front of Zhang Fan.

Geng Ruji looked at the scene in full swing on the side, opened his mouth, and made a gesture to Zhang Fan, and said: "Mr. Zhang, you are really amazing, you can think of this method, you have to be worshiped by the official, and the official is changed to arrange, I am afraid that I will not be able to complete such a feat in a month." ”

In front of everyone, many forts have sprung up, many deep pits have been dug out, and people are busy quickly and flexibly, or in a few days, Tai'an's city defense is only afraid to surpass Licheng.

Zhang Fan jumped up, jumped to the side, and said with a smile: "Lord Geng, don't you want to compromise my life, you are a really virtuous official, I can't afford it, this method is nothing, I have seen too much." ”

Wu Chuanyu's face turned red, and said: "Uncle Shi, I only knew that you were good at martial arts before, but I didn't expect you to be so good at doing this thing, Uncle Shi, where did you learn this kind of skill." Zhang Fan touched his beardless chin and said with a smile: "A sage named Marx taught me, he was a sage in the west, he taught me a science called productivity science, he said that the development of productive forces is accompanied by the refinement of the division of labor, and I didn't learn it well, otherwise there would not be so many problems now." ”

Geng Ruji, who was on the side, blushed, stepped forward and asked: "Where is this Marx predecessor, such a person can be the minister of a country, and I also ask Mr. Zhang to introduce him to the official, and the official wants to recommend this great sage." Zhang Fan smiled and waved his hand: "He hasn't been born yet." Everyone showed a puzzled look on their faces, and Zhang Fan hurriedly smiled: "I said that he is dead, and now he has been reincarnated, and he has not been born yet." "All the generals are coarse, and they laugh when they hear it, and no one takes it seriously.

Geng Ruji said again: "Mr. Zhang, what is the productivity you just said?" Zhang Fan said: "The theory of productivity, let me make an analogy, now the Great Zhou Dynasty is an agricultural society, can only produce 10 million stone of grain a year, we use gold to exchange, assuming that 100 stone of grain is converted into 1 tael of gold, let's say that the difference in the level of productivity in the Great Zhou Dynasty is 100,000 taels of gold a day, and the theory of productivity is how to improve the production of the whole society every year - gold"

When a group of military attachés heard a bunch of famous officials, few people understood, and Zhang Jiayu smiled and said: "What do we want gold for, and we can't eat it." Zhang Fan said: "I'm using an analogy to make a general equivalent of gold, and gold here means social wealth." Geng Ruji on the side said: "According to what Mr. Zhang said, the things produced will always be consumed, and everyone will always have to eat." Zhang Fan said with a smile: "Lord Geng is really smart, productivity is to let the entire Great Zhou Dynasty produce more grain, more brocade cloth, more and more things every year, so that every old Baiwa can have enough food and clothing." After Geng Ruji heard this, his eyes straightened, and he stepped forward to grab Zhang Fan and shouted, "Please Mr. Zhang take me as an apprentice and teach me this method." Zhang Fan said with a smile: "Even if I teach you, you can't figure it out, because this is not something that one person can complete, this knowledge involves a lot of things, from the political power to the industry to the whole society, Master Geng, do you know, the sage who taught me this degree has done in his life, if you know, you will definitely not learn this knowledge again." Geng Ruji said: "Please Mr. Zhang make it clear, this is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, why don't you learn from this official." Zhang Fan sighed: "He has been rebelling all his life – well, equivalent to rebellion." When Geng Ruji heard this, his face immediately changed and he took two steps back.

Zhang Fan said: "Don't hide it from your lord, this knowledge, in the future, will pull the emperor off the horse, at least it will take away the emperor's authority, do you still want to learn?" Geng Ruji finally remained silent, and finally shook his head and said: "Geng still doesn't learn." Zhang Fan said: "So I said, now in Tai'an City, what we use is the fur in the science of productivity, in the view of this discipline, the three emperors and five emperors, just a group of primitive people with low productivity, because of low productivity, so there are three emperors ruling the world, the world is the same." ”

A group of people walked and stopped, walked to a hundred steps away from the city gate, had reached the edge of the defensive circle, and saw a horse in front of the three red flags, shouted over, stopped in front of everyone, Wu Chuanyu stepped forward and said: "What's the matter? Come and report quickly?" The tanma saluted and shouted: "The day before yesterday, General Zhang led the sect to attack the back of the militia, and the militia was defeated in the siege, with 20,000 corpses, and now they are retreating to Feicheng." ”

When everyone heard this, their faces showed a look of joy, and Zhang Jiayu said: "Do we want to chase after it, so that they don't dare to come to fight Tai'an's idea." Zhang Fan said: "We are all infantry, and the wandering militia has at least about 5,000 horsemen, so we can't afford to play." ”

Wu Chuanyu was anxious to teach Zhang Yuan, and stepped forward and said, "How is General Zhang, is Cui Guiyuan embarrassed for General Zhang?" The probe said: "General Zhang has made a great contribution, and Anran led his troops into Licheng, and there is no news now." Wu Chuanyu said: "You will explore again immediately, I am worried that Cui Guiyuan will attack General Zhang, if there is any news, I will report it immediately." Then he said goodbye to the horse, and then got on his horse.

At this time, among the governors of Licheng, the servants and maids fled in all directions, and Zhang Chengzhong flew with all his strength to go up the river from the crowd, and saw a large group of pacesetters rushing towards Dachangzhong.

Cui Guiyuan's face was proud, he took a wine glass in one hand, and the pillar of the Jiang Dynasty in the pacesetter camp under his command had already shouted loudly, and asked Zhang Shuijiao to confess his guilt quickly, and from time to time he kicked Zhang Shuijiao, who was tied up, and the generals on the side were all pale, holding wine, at a loss, and some generals looked at Cui Guiyuan, with a frightened look on their faces, obviously worried that Cui Guiyuan would take him down.

Cui Guiyuan smiled and said: "General Zhang, General Zhang, where is your usual prestige, why is it so bad today, this official is just a small plan, I will take down you, a veteran of the battlefield for decades, it seems that you are not very good, you have fornicated with the militia, and want to secretly communicate with the militia to break through the city of my city, this official has already known about this matter, and now he will take you down, what do you have to say." ”

Below, Zhang Shujiao's face was red, and he was naturally extremely angry, Zhang Shujiao scolded: "Traitor, you want to harm me, but you are making up trumped-up charges, the emperor knows about it, and he will definitely not spare you." ”

Cui Guiyuan took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "You don't have a chance to make it clear to the emperor, the official decided to cut off your head first, and then naturally present it to the ministries, and naturally present it to the emperor. After laughing, Cui Guiyuan threw the wine glass and said with a smile: "Come on, teach me Zhang Rate, no, you have to crack his car, the car is cracked, I only heard that the car was cracked in ancient times, and now I want to crack a living person to see how many pieces it is." At this time, Cui Guiyuan's voice was like a ghost, and for a while, all the subordinates and maids on the side seemed to see Cui Guiyuan on the first day, just because they had never seen Cui Guiyuan show such a demeanor, and today is the time when Cui Guiyuan is proud, of course, he must let go of his mood.

A small official stepped forward, this little official was originally here to write a pen and the like, this little official knelt down and said: "Duye, this dynasty has no punishment for car splitting, since the founding of this dynasty, Emperor Wen Shengren, abolished this ......" Cui Guiyuan suddenly twisted his face, and said angrily: "Won't you look for a horse? Isn't the car cracking just putting people on and then putting a cannon to pull people away? You can't do this thing well, it can be seen that you are useless, come to someone, behead him, this official is fornicating with the rebel general, it can be seen that he can't be kept." "There were already pacesetters rushing up, a pacesetter with a big knife wave, the little official screamed, the servant fell to the ground, blood flowed up the hall, the body was still twitching, a few pacesetters stepped forward again, and the knives were all together, and there was a lot of rotten meat in the hall after a while.
