Chapter 24 Ningwu Pass
Wang Gang looked at the distant shadow, the pretty face that flashed by.
Zhang Qian saw Wang Gang's expression, and laughed and pulled Wang Gang back to reality.
"That's the little girl Yue'er, who has been following her mother, and has come to see me these days." Zhang Qian said, showing a playful smile.
"It turned out to be a junior sister, I came in a hurry this time, and I didn't prepare any gifts" Wang Gang was happy in his heart, since he came to this world, he has seen very few women, let alone girls. The heart that has been calm has a little more budding.
"It's all my own family, so I don't need to see outside," Zhang Qian said with a smile.
The two discussed some things in the army again, and Wang Gang seemed to think of something, and asked again.
"I don't know if Mr. knows the situation of the pass in Yanmen County"
"Yanmen County originally had four passes, in addition to Yanmen Pass and Ningwu Pass, there was originally a partial pass in the county seat of Juyang County in the northeast, and now Youzhou is in charge of Captain Wuhuan, and there is also a Niangzi Pass in the southeast, and Shangdang County is under the management of Taishou Zhang Yang"
"Why are the checkpoints in Yanmen County being managed by others?" Wang Gang was a little puzzled.
"Every checkpoint has to be guarded, Yanmen is a small county, and it is a border fortress, how can there be so many people stationed at the checkpoints leading to other states and counties," Zhang Qian sighed and said.
"Ningwuguan is only twenty or thirty people stationed"
"Recently, the situation in Yunzhong has gradually stabilized, if the Hutu people attack the Han Dynasty, Yanmen County will bear the brunt, and Yunzhong will enter Yanmen without taking Yanmen Pass, and go to Ningwu Pass," Wang Gang said.
"Yes, that's why I said that Wuyang County is special." Zhang Qian said.
On the second day, Wang Gang returned to Yanmen Pass to buy an exchange device, and then took Chu Yu to the county seat of Wuyang County.
The county seat of Wuyang County is smaller than the county seat of Mayi, and the city wall is even more dilapidated, Wang Gang walked to the gate of the city and saw Zhang Liao leading the people to strengthen the city wall.
Seeing Wang Gang coming over, he hurriedly ran down.
"Brother, why are you here" Zhang Liao ran to Wang Gang's side and asked.
"I'm worried that the Hugh Tu people will enter Yanmen County from Ningwu Pass, and I'm afraid that you will suffer a loss, so I specially brought some helpers" Wang Gang looked at Zhang Liao, half a year of war has made Zhang Liao mature a lot.
"Hugh slaughtered people to harass Ning Wuguan several times, but they were all killed." Zhang Liao said.
"Hugh Butcher has already come," Wang Gang was taken aback and blurted out.
"Yes, but now that it's the winter moon, I don't think the slaughter people will come again," Zhang Liao said.
After speaking, a few people walked into the county seat of Wuyang.
The county seat of Wuyang County is the gateway to the southwest of Yanmen County, next to Wuyuan County and Yunzhong County.
The terrain is long and narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, surrounded by mountains, so the land that can be cultivated is very small, the whole county has no more than 1,000 households, no more than 3,000 mouths, and there are almost no towns and villages around.
There are not a few pedestrians on the whole street, and the occasional few are still soldiers of Yanmen County, and there are no inns and restaurants in the county, which is an extremely barren county seat.
Wang Gang stayed in the county government for one night, and discussed with Zhang Liao about sending troops to Xiu Tu in the coming year, and took Chu Yu to leave the county seat of Wuyang County at dawn.
There is a rugged mountain road to the southwest from the county seat of Wuyang, the narrow place is only for two carriages to pass, and there is a small pass five miles ahead, which is Ningwu Pass. The city wall is no more than two zhang high, and the outside of the gate is a gourd-like shape.
Wang Gang walked up to the wall and looked at the rocky road outside the gate, paved with gravel.
The mountains on both sides were also full of gravel, and there were few trees, and Wang Gang walked into the small stone house below the pass.
Inside, it is the same as Yanmen Pass, there is a small stone platform.
Wang Gang asked Chu Yu to push the stone platform, revealing a small square underground, and put the exchange device inside.
The stone platform slowly closes.
Turn on the redemption device.
Please verify your identity.
Wang Gang put his right hand on the stone platform.
Verification successful.
Testing........
This time the test was much faster than the last time, and it was activated in about half a day.
The redemption device is turned on.
Automatically connect to Yanmen Gate.
Information Sharing......
What does this information sharing mean?
Wang Gang didn't understand, and looked at the slowly growing progress bar.
It took another half a day to fully turn on.
Wang Gang clicked on the exchange device and found that it was the same as that of Yanmen Pass, which was directly a fourth-level exchange, and the top was Yanmen Pass/Ningwu Pass
You can switch back and forth.
Wang Gang understood that this was just a sub-base, not a new exchange, which made Wang Gang's dream of starting a special exchange come to naught.
And the resources of this base are so barren, there are not a few trees on the mountain, how to maintain daily life.
Wang Gang clicked
The area of the detection resource is five kilometers
I was surprised to find that there is iron ore here, but the reserves are not much, and there is a lot of gravel.
Wang Gang exchanged for 50 junior miners.
Beginner miners can collect stone at a 20% increase in gathering speed.
Arrange for these junior miners to go to the mountain road to collect rock, and by the way, widen the road.
He also asked Xu Huang to bring some people over to strengthen the city wall.
In half a month, Ningwuguan has changed, the mountain roads that used to be full of rocks are now clean.
Ningwuguan, which was short in the past, was also heightened to three zhang.
So the miners began to mine the rocks on the mountain, and the people began to build houses in the open space in the pass.
I believe that with the opening of Ningwu Pass, the people of Wuyang County can also have a better life.
By the time Wang Gang returned to Dai County again, it was already the middle of the lunar month, and half a month was the New Year.
Wang Gang walked into the county guard's mansion and looked at a few plum blossoms blooming in the wind and snow in the corner.
And that shadow is gone.
"Sir, when will you go back to Taiyuan?" Wang Gang put his hand into the charcoal basin and looked at Zhang Qian, who was still reading the paperwork, and said.
"Go back to Taiyuan, go back to Taiyuan and do it." Zhang Qian turned his head and asked.
"Go back to Taiyuan to see my sister, and my sister"
"There are still so many things that have not been dealt with here, and after the New Year, it is spring ploughing, and the seeds and cattle in each county have not been allocated." Zhang Qian continued to look at the paperwork in his hand.
"Then I'm going home for the New Year."
"Ziyi, you can go back to Jinyang for me, I really can't get out" Zhang Qian had already lowered his head and read the paperwork.
"That gentleman, this is not good" Wang Gang said, in fact, he just wanted Zhang Qian to take him to Jinyang.
"Then you come and sort out the documents submitted by various counties, and I will go to Jinyang County." Zhang Qian said to stand up.
Wang Gang hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and flattered Zhang Qian to beat his shoulder.
"Sir, I mean it's not a way for you to do this, sooner or later you're going to get tired."
"Now Yanmen Pass is in ruins, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion has slaughtered too many officials," Zhang Qian said.
"Sir, I am the Taishou of Yanmen County, and I will ensure the safety of Yanmen County." Wang Gang assured, his eyes full of determination.
"Okay, good, the division didn't misunderstand you, you can train with peace of mind, these trivial matters will be handled for you by the division." Zhang Qian smiled reassuringly.
"Sir, I don't know if you can find some officials from Jinyang County," Wang Gang thought for a while and said.
"Then I'll try it, but I'm afraid that ordinary scholars won't come to our Yanmen County, after all, it's close to Biansai," Zhang Qian said.
"Let's try our best to fight for it, it's a big deal to give more money, there will always be people willing to come." Wang Gang said.
After the two discussed, they left for Jinyang after they were busy with the things in hand.
