Soldiers with fine shovels, hoes, and pickaxes dug up the earth and built roads. Most of the places are fast, and only when you encounter a small river like this is troublesome.

Some of the soldiers were proficient in the construction of small bridges, and most of them were built with stone arches or wooden bridges. If there are more complicated ones, they can only be left empty first, waiting for Lu Bu to send other craftsmen to build them.

In the hot summer, the soldiers worked tirelessly and sweated on the construction site.

Early in the morning, there was the sound of the firehead army killing pigs by the river, and ten fat pigs were killed. This is not a few months of piglets, they are all big fat pigs of more than a year and a half, three or four fingers thick fat.

Guan Hai rode a big horse, carried a spear on his shoulder, and walked along the construction site with a big grin.

"Come on, the firehead army has killed pigs for you. Lord Thorn Shi allocated a thousand fat pigs to us, which is our reward for building roads. ”

A soldier asked: "Head, what can we do with more than 2,000 pigs in thousands of acres of vegetable fields in Jinan County, is it impossible to eat?" ”

Guan Hai pursed his mouth: "It's okay to be a little promising, we are a field army that is fighting in all directions, and we will dominate the world in the future." ”

Another tun chief smiled: "You can rest assured, there are hundreds of people left in the headquarters, and the pigs, sheep and livestock are fine." Even the greens are cut and dried and kept for the winter. ”

Guan Hai scolded and scolded: "It's all fucking hard, thinking back to the past, I couldn't eat enough, I didn't have to wear clothes, but now it's like a fairy, if anyone cheats and plays tricks for Lao Tzu, don't blame me for serving in military law." ”

"Don't worry, General, no one is lazy."

There are many people with great strength, colorful flags are displayed on the construction site, and there are rough singing voices of soldiers from time to time.

Wake up early and work until about nine o'clock to have breakfast, and after breakfast, work for a while and start a two-hour lunch break, avoiding the scorching sun at noon, and wait until about four o'clock in the afternoon to start drying, and work until dark.

The working hours set by Guan Hai are still very humane, and everyone has not grinded foreign workers, and the progress is very fast, basically, twenty miles will be completed in three days.

In a blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed, and more than 100 miles have been repaired, and it has reached the vicinity of Zoucheng County, and then it is Liangqiu to the east, and then it will enter the boundary of Langya.

In Langya City, Xiao Jian was somewhat depressed.

During Tao Qian's tenure in Xuzhou, he has always been an independent existence, superficially obedient, and pays some money appropriately every year.

The surrounding area of Langya is mostly mountainous, which is very little affected by the plague and the Yellow Turban Army, and the mountain people have a large number of cattle and donkeys, and the cultivation is relatively developed.

There are more than 7,000 elite soldiers under his hands, all of whom are characters who dare to fight, so Tao Qian has never had a hard time with Xiao Jian, and he has always been such a transcendent existence.

Xiao Jian discussed things in the county guard's mansion, and the civil ministers and military generals were all called.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Lu Bu is not good, 20,000 troops are going here to repair the official road, and the army will come to the city in half a month. What do you think? ”

Xiao Jian's military advisor, Xu Zhubo, proposed: "My lord, Lu Bu's army came to build roads for oppression, not to fight. Now that Lu Bu has mastered the entire territory of Qingzhou and the northern part of Xuzhou, we are surrounded in the middle, and we must have a statement, otherwise I am afraid it will be difficult to do. ”

There is a general sitting next to the military division, with a big head, round eyes, and a beard like a steel needle.

Xiao Sandao slapped the table: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, if we surrender without fighting, I'm afraid Lu Bu will also look down on us." I suggest that Langya immediately enter a wartime state, mobilize the people, and rest the city walls. ”

Xiao Jian was noncommittal: "Three swords, how sure are you that you can defeat Lu Bu?" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, Lu Bu is estimated to be just a false appearance, and let's make preparations with both hands, if we can't beat him, it's not too late to surrender."

Under Xiao Jian's order, the whole army of Langya County was mobilized, scouts were dispatched, and soldiers climbed the city wall, preparing to roll wood and thunder stones, etc. At the same time, 20,000 strong men were also requisitioned to defend Langya City like an iron bucket.

Langya City was quite moving, but Lu Bu didn't move.

The 20,000 troops of Guanhai and Guancheng repaired the road to Liangqiu and collected their troops back, and the army was stationed in Zou County.

Because there is no need to repair it ahead, the road is acceptable, and it is not too bad.

At this time, Lu Bu was developing a simple machine tool with Ma Jun in the ordnance camp, which was a foot-pedal arrow shaft machine, putting the crude arrow shaft into it, and the operator stepped on the machine tool to quickly cut out an arrow shaft.
