"The guards are in place!" Another loud roar came.

"Bang" "Bang" In an instant, the originally extremely quiet team began to act directly, this time everyone turned into a jogging action, as they continued to jog, the original five columns of soldiers directly became two columns, and before Li Yi could see clearly, they were already standing neatly on both sides of the road.

With a loud and dull sound, the soldiers standing on both sides of the road smashed their spears to the ground almost simultaneously, forming two human walls on both sides of the original road!

"Speak, Chief!" At this time, Huo Zhengcai, who was standing next to Huo Gang, said loudly.

Huo Gang, who was waiting on the side, took two steps forward, his platform was not high, that is, more than two meters high, but he could clearly see the expressions on the faces of everyone standing behind those soldiers at the moment.

All of them had serious faces, and there were various emotions in their eyes, such as adoration, fanaticism, curiosity, gratitude, etc., but the only thing they did not have was fear and fear. Not only Huo Gang could see it, but Li Yi and the other city lords standing around Huo Gang could also see it.

"The people of the Great Han!" Huo Gang cleared his throat, and then spoke loudly.

"Today is the day when the first concrete official road in Dahan is built and opened to traffic, which means that our Dahan has taken a new step, and this official road means that our Dahan will embark on a new road, a road that has never been seen before!"

"The construction of this official road was built under the leadership of our third-level craftsman Wang Luo, a third-level craftsman of the Han Dynasty, and a total of 30,000 road repair workers! And they continue to build new roads! ”

"In the future, we will have a second and third roads that will continue to be successfully built, and our official roads will continue to increase until they reach all the towns of our Dahan! Today, this first road will be officially named: Wanmin Road! ”

"It represents the joint efforts of hundreds of thousands of people in Dahan! In the future, a stone monument will be erected on the side of this road, and the names of all the people who built it will be carved on it! Let all posterity remember! ”

When Huo Gang said this, the crowd below was completely in a commotion, and many people couldn't help but cheer directly, when have these ordinary people seen such a formation, Huo Gang is equivalent to setting up a monument to all their ordinary people!

"In addition, from today, the reconstruction of Yumen Pass will officially begin! And in the same way, all the craftsmen who rebuilt the Yumen Pass will be engraved on the city wall at that time! You are an integral part of the whole Dahan, and in the same way, every bit of what you do will also be recorded in every corner of the Dahan! ”

"Now I announce! Wanmin Road is officially opened to traffic! ”

As Huo Gang's voice fell, he directly pulled a piece of red silk cloth next to him, and I don't know when a long piece of red silk was erected near the city gate immediately split into two, and the road in the middle naturally got out of the way.

"Rack!" When the red silk fell, a coachman at the front of the carriage procession, who had already lined up, directly raised his horsewhip and shouted with excitement.

With the sound of the coachman's whip, the horse pulling the carriage immediately took its own steps, stepped onto the concrete pavement, and drove directly ahead.

The long carriage convoy behind them all started up in an instant, and the crowd around them immediately erupted in cheers again.

But no one rushed onto the road, but everyone waited for the carriages to go first.

Today's ceremony is not very solemn, because there is not enough time, and this is just a road, after the completion of the first five-year plan, at least after the completion of the reconstruction of Yumen Pass, Huo Gang will definitely have a big ceremony at that time! At that time, I am afraid that it will not only be the people of the Han Dynasty who will come to watch the ceremony!

The long carriage convoy soon kept moving away from the road, and at this time, Li Yi came back to his senses from everything around him, he first arched his hand to Huo Gang next to him and said: "Leader Huo's subordinates are really elite soldiers, these soldiers are simply the most elite army I have ever seen." ”

"The head of the Li family is polite, our Han is a small force, and compared with the Tang Dynasty, these can't be put on the table." Huo Gang said lightly.

It's true that it can't be on the table now, but in a few years, I don't know.

"Leader Huo is polite, but I don't know if I can go down and see this Wanmin Road?"

"Absolutely." Huo Gang said with a smile.

The convoy of wagons below had moved away, and the crowd around them had rushed onto the open Wanmin Road, which had been built by workers who had been built and some of the workers who were in charge of maintaining it knew what the concrete road looked like.

But now the people around are the residents of Yumen Pass, who didn't know before, but they have also heard from their own families. As for the workers and craftsmen who built the road, they were not here, because they were still building the Yumen Pass in the direction of Black Iron Town and Yiwu City.

Black Iron Town is the location of the iron mine, and a small town was also established there, which was established based on the iron mine, so it was called Black Iron Town.

The soldiers below have placed the plaque on the side of the road, which is a plaque carved out of wood with the words Wanmin Road written on it, and it will be replaced by stone carvings after a while.

After being placed, these soldiers have already returned to the city, they are tiger ben under the city defense, they also have their own tasks, and Huo Gang naturally has his personal guards in charge of it.

Coming down from the high platform, Li Yi had already walked to the road curiously, he first stomped on the ground with his foot, and after feeling the hardness of his feet like a stone, he simply squatted down, and then stroked it with his hand.

There was no difference from the feeling under his feet, it was indeed the same as a stone, but this blue-gray pavement was extremely flat, and most importantly, it was obviously not cut directly from the mountain, because the pavement was more than a zhang wide, and there was a gap every one and a half zhang or so.

But Li Yi felt that the gap seemed to be deliberately left, and such a wide stone pavement obviously could not be a stone cut directly from the mountain, if that was really the case, then unless Huo Gang used his divine power instead of manpower, just like in the legend.

Because it is almost impossible for a person to complete such a project in two months.

"Leader Huo, I don't know what these things are ......" Li Yi hesitated and asked.

"Cement." Huo Gang smiled, he wasn't going to hide it, because cement was going to be used on a large scale, so he wouldn't hide it, but how cement was made, they didn't want to know.

It seems that there are many workers who come and go every day in the industrial city, but in fact, the workers who grind the powder and ingredients are carefully selected workers, and these people are ...... It can almost be said that Huo Gang is a fanatical believer.

Almost all of them are Turkic, and in the area of the industrial city, it is impossible for others to get close, not to mention the early warning ability of the spirit of Huo Gangyumen, it is impossible for the surrounding Turks to let any stranger in.

And all the people who work in the industrial city need to issue their own badges, and the core formula, production methods, etc., are all in the hands of different people.

So Huo Gang is not worried about leaks.

"Cement?" Li Yi looked at Huo Gang with some confusion.

"Well, it's a material that can be mixed with stone and sand to quickly form this kind of strong pavement." Huo Gang didn't explain much, but he also explained to Li Yi.

"This ...... Is it sold? Li Yi hesitated, but still asked.

"Sorry, we won't sell it for the time being, because we don't have enough for our own use." Huo Gang said with a slight smile.

"So, it will be sold later." Li Yi's expression instantly brightened.

"Of course, if we had enough production, I would have sold." Huo Gang said very simply, but when will this sufficient output be satisfied, then Huo Gang doesn't know.

Because if nothing else, the cement required for the 12-kilometer-long city wall of the new Yumen Pass alone is an astronomical amount, not to mention that not only the Yumen Pass, but also the entire Han Dynasty's territory will be built.

Although the production of cement will continue to expand in the future, at present, no matter how much the world's cement production is expanded, it is estimated that it will not be enough in a few years.

"Then I hope that when the time comes, our Longxi Li family can get the right to operate cement." Li Yi immediately spoke.

"Of course there is no problem, in this case, Master Li, let's go to the General's Mansion to talk?" Huo Gang said with a smile.

"Good!"

After returning to the General's Mansion, Huo Gang did not hide it, but said directly: "Master Li, I heard from the people below that the grain that your Li family in Longxi has been sending us here less and less recently, I don't know what the reason is?" ”

Of course, Huo Gang knew the reason for this, but he still had to ask, because he was very thirsty for food before, and now that the supply of food has decreased, he must ask about it.

Li Yi immediately hesitated, and after a long time, he spoke: "Don't hide it from the leader, not only has the food decreased, but we may not be able to provide food in the future." ”

"Oh? Isn't the head of the Li family going to regret it? Huo Gang remained silent, but asked rhetorically.

"No, it's that there is a possibility of a large-scale famine in the entire Datang." Li Yi took a deep breath and did not hide it from Huo Gang, but said it directly.

"I want to hear about it." Huo Gang took a sip of tea with a curious look on his face and asked, but his heart paid attention to it.

People in this era don't know, but how can Huo Gang, who came from more than a thousand years later, not know that the climate is ...... It can be said that the butterfly effect is clear to everyone, and it can be said that the climate of the whole earth and the world is linked.

So the question is, will the characteristics of the spirit of the Jade Gate that change the climate against the sky affect the surrounding climate? The answer to this is almost yes!
