Chapter 217: Villagers' condolences

Several soldiers who were camping saw that the young lady was doing a neat job, so they stopped their work and specially helped the young lady move the wooden stakes. Hua Bao stopped what he was doing and followed a few GIs to help the young lady move the wooden stakes.

Each general's tent is about 12 square meters, and a wooden stake is inserted at intervals of about 1 meter. Everyone moved the wood quickly, and the young lady quickly finished inserting the wall support of a military tent according to the mark.

In a moment, the young lady inserted all the wall brackets of the five military tents. A few people who helped cleaned up and leveled the ground within the range of the fence support.

Hua Leopard and the GIs began to build the roof beams, and the young lady stood on the high slope, looking around.

The camping area was noisy: there were people who camped on the walls, there were people who dug pits and buried supports, and there were people who cleared the ground...... Ying Ning Yin Kang Mei Xing and Li Er took two carriages as the center to collect firewood around the fire.

The young lady was watching and saw Liang Jin, who was walking towards here.

The young lady walked towards Liang Jin, and soon the two met and saluted each other, and Liang Jin asked, "Where are you going, my lord?"

The young lady said: "The people who set up the camp are all men, I can't mix in it, but there are other things I can help with?" ”

Liang Jin said: "If you have time, please bring some people to collect some wooden stakes and set up a camp wall." "The wooden stakes brought by Liang Jin are enough to tie up the military tent. But it was not enough to erect the stakes of the walls of the camp.

The young lady said, "I know, leave the matter of camping the wall to me." Then he walked towards the people who had set up camp on the wall.

The soldiers have already had a division of labor, and there are already soldiers with people, leading the unloaded wagons and ox carts, to cut wood and collect materials.

The young lady came to the people who were setting up the wall, stopped the people who were working, and said, "You leave two to help me carry the stakes, and the rest go to the stakes of the village." After saying that, he picked up a curved wooden stake from the ground, aimed it at the wall that had been built, and thrust it hard.

Everyone looked at it inexplicably, and their hearts said, "How can this be inserted?"

Everyone's doubts disappeared in a flash, and the wooden stake in the young lady's hand had been deeply inserted into the ground, tightly connected with the arm-thick branch next to her, without the slightest sense of disobedience.

Seeing this, more than a dozen soldiers left two to hand the wooden stakes to the young lady, and the rest of the people with help found the wagons and ox carts, and all went to look for the wooden stakes for the fence.

The two GIs handed the young lady a wooden stake, and the young lady did it quickly, and soon a wall of more than 30 meters was erected. By this time, the stakes and branches for the walls had been used up.

The young lady saw that it would take some time for the people who had collected the branches to be set up in the village to come back, and the people who had set up camp were still digging and burying wooden stakes, and said to the two soldiers: "You also go and collect the branches, and transport them to the place where they need to be set up and wait for me, and I will go and help set up camp first." ”

The two GIs complied, took their leave, and went to help cut the branches. I thought in my heart: "This is a veritable Hercules, a wooden stick is inserted into the ground, and it is three feet into the ground, and the divine power is nothing more than that." ”

The young lady wandered around the camp, helping to insert wooden stakes in the military tents to be set up one by one, and the progress of the project was suddenly very fast. Two quarters later, all the stakes of the 150 tents were laid.

At this time, the wagon that had gone to cut the branches also returned, and they had already unloaded the cart and went to collect the branches again. These branches are not afraid of being picked, even if the wall is not used up, it is also firewood when it is dried, and it is always useful.

The young lady came to the two soldiers who were waiting for her, and continued to plant branches in the wall, and in a moment all the branches were used up, and more than half of the wall was erected.

At this time, Yang Wu came, greeted the young lady, and said, "The military tent of the head of the family has been built, please go back and rest." ”

The young lady took off the water hyacinth, drank a few sips of water, looked at the camp, and said, "I know, you go and help build the tent first, and I will rest by myself in a while." ”

Yang Wu agreed to the promise and went to help the people who were building military tents to cover the cowhide on the roof.

A procession of old men and women appeared in the direction of the village, carrying large and small pots towards the camp. Smoke also rose from the direction of Ying Ning and others in the camp.

The convoy of horses transporting the branches of the village returned, and the young lady helped unload the car and continued to insert it into the wall. Less than two moments later, a complete camp wall was completed. This is also a grassland wasteland, where there are many trees, and it is easy to collect branches.

Most of the military tents in the camp were also erected with the help of the masses.

The two soldiers who handed the branches to the young lady and the coachmen who carried the branches back from the walled wall began to build the gates, four of which were reserved and one on the south, east, west, and west.

The young lady looked around again, and saw Hua Bao and Liang Jin walking towards her with a few soldiers.

Several people walked up to the young lady, and Liang Jin said, "The villagers under the mountain are here, so let's go with us to greet them." ”

The young lady said: "Thank you for the support of the general for the development of the Eastern Wilderness this time, otherwise it will take some time to set up these camps." The villagers came to comfort us, and we went to greet us. ”

The three of them walked towards the procession of old men and women, and the two sides soon met. An old man in his fifties among the villagers said to the three of them: "The general has worked hard all the way, and it has been hard to camp here. ”

Liang Jin arched his hand and said: "Thank you folks, if there is something in the village in the future, you need to use the army here, just come to me." ”

The old man said to a soldier beside Liang Jin: "General Huang has always been good?"

This soldier's name is Huang Ming, and he is the person in charge of the first battalion of the Standing Army of the Third Battalion. If something happened to the nearby village, go to the third camp post to ask the soldiers for help, because Huang Ming's military post is in the westernmost part, and the villagers are the first to arrive at his military post.

Huang Ming arched his hand and said, "Thank you for the old man's memory, I'm fine." He thought, "This old man looks good, but he can't remember when he has found himself." ”

Liang Jin said: "Everyone, please enter the barracks, don't blow the wind outside the camp." With that, he stepped aside.

The young lady and the others gave way one after another, and the old man entered the camp with the condolence brigade, looking for their own tents and bringing food to comfort everyone.

The young lady asked Huang Mingdao, "The old man knows you, have you ever been here?"

Huang Mingdao: "My lord: I am in charge of a military post, and whenever there is a difficult matter in these villages, I go to the third battalion post to ask the army for help, and I am usually the first to find my military post." ”

The young lady said: "I see, presumably the general army is the commander of the westernmost military post." ”

Huang Ming said: "Exactly." ”

The young lady said: "In this case, I have something to ask: Does the general remember the white snake and white fox incident at the foot of Xiaoyin Mountain last year?"

Huang Mingdao: "Remember, I personally led the team to Xiaoyin Mountain to sit in this matter, and the adults asked about it, but do you want to re-investigate?"
