Chapter 45: Ma Jun
Looking at the neat army under the city wall, the troops marching towards Juyong Pass have disappeared from sight until the front of the team. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info Ma Heng and others went down the city wall.
Only a few days after returning to Xiliang City, Ma Teng had already retreated and was preparing to break through to the realm of Wuzun, and Jia Xu also began to cultivate his own elixir.
As for Ma Heng, he seems to be the same as usual, and no one knows what he has gained in that champion Hou Po Void Land. Ma Chao has gained a lot, and Ma Heng has promised that when he can win himself in the tactical deduction, he will give him an egg found in the storage room of the Tomb of the Champion. The egg is still alive, according to Jia Xu's estimate, it is likely to have been born for decades, and it is very likely that it will be born in the near future, and the father of this egg is likely to be Baiyunlong!
Ma Chao is now free and runs to the incubation room where the white eggs are placed.
In the tent of the large military camp, in addition to Ma Teng Jiaxu who was in retreat and others stationed in Juyong Pass, all the senior generals of the Xiliang Army were all present. Ma Heng's cronies, Pang De, Gao Shun, Pang Rou, Pang Rou is also Pang De's cousin, a person in the army of the great martial arts realm, of course, the strength is only the capital of the Chinese, he has been following Ma Ben before, and now he is sent to his own account.
Ma Teng's henchman, Ma Chao, the fourteen-year-old Ma Chao has already broken through to the acquired realm, and even at this moment, he is already a seventh-order cultivator. also officially joined the army, in charge of the most elite 10,000 cavalry under Ma Teng. Ma play, this person has nothing to do with the Ma family, although he also has the surname Ma.
Han Sui's original subordinates, candidates, Han Sui's subordinates who got on the stage are almost dead, and there is only one candidate left.
Bian Zhang's original subordinates, Cheng Gongying, and Bian Zhang's only son, Bian Fu.
The new leader of the Qiang people, Zhamu, once worked with Ma Heng in Juyong Pass, and Ma Heng was sent to the front line by Ma Heng when he rectified military discipline. As a result, the two of them got together again in Xiliang City, and what was completely different from before was that at this moment he was already looking subdued.
"The grain, grass and salaries delivered by the imperial court have arrived the day before yesterday. After saying the history, everyone did not have a reaction, and it was better than nothing.
"The imperial court sealed the Pingxi general's jurisdiction of 100,000, and built the shogunate, and now there are 248,642 soldiers in service in our Xiliang Army, including Xiliangcheng...... General Pingxi has ordered that the 90,000 soldiers will be demoted to cantonment soldiers, and they will be responsible for the affairs of tuntian and disperse the counties..."
As the scribe finished reading the script, everyone looked different, and in the end, no one objected. Ma Heng had already decided to streamline the troops, and the more than 200,000 troops really couldn't afford to raise it, Xiliang was not a rich place, and it was even more deserted after years of war. After streamlining the troops, Ma Heng felt that the combat power did not decrease but rose, of course, this is also thanks to Ma Heng's power to be implemented, Ma's soldiers and horses, coupled with the Qiang people's sudden embrace, Ma Heng's strength has been enough to occupy half of the Xiliang Army, and the largest powerful candidate is not as high as Han Sui's prestige, and the second is also hostile to the Qiang people of the original Bian Zhang, and it is difficult to support the Qiang people alone, so they naturally have to obey orders.
Since Ma Heng was the most ruthless in taking the candidate, the rest of the people found that they didn't seem to be unacceptable.
gave everyone a stick, and naturally there were dates.
Ma Heng got up, "Where is Zamu?"
"Humble duty!" Zamu got down on one knee.
"Today, you are the general of Huya, commanding 10,000 spearmen. β
"No!" Zamu took the military uniform and the military seal order arrow.
"Cheng Gongying, named General Huwei, commanded 10,000 spearmen. β
"Bian Fu, named a guerrilla general, commanded 10,000 archers. β
"Candidate, named General Fenwu, commanding 10,000 cavalry. β
"Ma played, named General Fenwei, commanding 10,000 shield armor soldiers. β
"Ma Chao, named the general of the cavalry, commanded 10,000 cavalry. β
"Pang Rou, named General Jianwu, commanded 10,000 spearmen. β
"Pound, named General Dangkou, commanded 10,000 cavalry. β
"Gao Shun, named the general of the Protector Army, is responsible for assisting me in commanding the 20,000 horses of the headquarters. β
And Ma Teng, who was not present, was named the general of the capital and commanded the generals. Jia Xu is a military general, in charge of internal and external military and political affairs. Gai Xun, who was far away in Juyong Pass, was named the governor of Juyong Pass, and the commander-in-chief of Juyong Pass military affairs. Civil affairs are the responsibility of civil officials.
As the troops went down to various places to take charge of the troops, the two people also ushered in Ma Heng's mansion.
Two horse dealers, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang.
"My lord. β
The two of them did not need to be polite. Ma Heng said with a smile: "Now that the Central Plains is in turmoil, and the price of horses is soaring more and more, whether the people of Xiliang can eat depends on how you two harvest." β
The two hurriedly said that they would do their best.
"Don't forget your duty. β
"No!" the two black-clothed guards knelt down to listen to the order.
Dozens of miles outside Xiliang City, there is a farmland. On the edge of the farmland also respectively set up a number of keel waterwheels, this overturned, that is, the keel waterwheel is obviously different from the common waterwheel, generally overturned, the body is put together with three plates to form a rectangular long groove, each end of the groove is framed with a sprocket, with the keel blade plate as a chain, through the long groove; the body is obliquely placed at the water's edge, the lower sprocket and a part of the long groove are immersed in the water, and the sprocket on the shore is the driving wheel; the shaft of the driving wheel is longer, and each end is with four crutches; people lean on the frame, step on the crutches, drive the upper sprocket, the blade scrapes the water along the groove and rises, the water is discharged to the trough end, and then returns to the water along the top of the long troughγ In this cycle, water is continuously brought to shore.
The rollover made here is obviously light and labor-saving, and can allow children to run, which is at least dozens of times stronger than the common rollover.
Ma Heng came with dozens of guards on light horses, and said a few words of greetings to the old farmers in the countryside from time to time, it seems that Ma Heng has not come less.
In a small farmhouse courtyard. Of course, it is said that the small courtyard is obviously more than ten times larger than the ordinary farmhouse.
"Brother... You.. There you are. A young man who was making a small carriage saw Ma Heng inside, and smiled brightly.
The young man's name is Ma Jun, who has stuttered since he was a child and is not good at talking. But he likes to think, is good at using his brain, and at the same time pays attention to practice, is diligent in his hands, and especially likes to delve into mechanical problems. The distant clansmen of the Naima clan, although they have awakened the Dharma lineage, their progress is extremely slow, and they are only cultivating in the realm of refining the body (equivalent to the realm of martial arts forging the body) at this moment, because they are becoming more and more silent because of their stuttering, so they simply live in the countryside for a long time, and no one usually cares about them. turned out to be discovered by Ma Heng about his talent.
Coincidentally, the list of all the awakened people of the Ma clan was reported to Ma Heng, and Ma Heng saw this person who had awakened the legal lineage at a glance, after all, the person who awakened the legal lineage of the Ma family was this one, and it was difficult not to pay attention to it, but the person who came was quite embarrassed and said, "This Ma Jun is eighteen years old before refining the third order, I'm afraid it will not be of great use." β
This matter is not unusual, there are actually many people who awaken the martial arts vein who cannot break through the body forging and refining realm, and unlike the forging body realm, at least there is a lot of strength, and in the previous life, they can be regarded as martial arts masters, peerless generals, and the body refining realm is simply a weak scholar. I can't do any magic. In addition, Ma Jun is a bite-eater.
Ma Heng always felt that this name was a little familiar. So as soon as he was summoned, he found that Ma Jun's family background was extremely ordinary, and in the face of the extremely slow progress of cultivation, he did not give up, but relied on the new type of silk loom he invented to sell in exchange for property to buy pills.
Patting Ma Jun's shoulder, Ma Heng smiled slightly, "Look what brother has brought you." β
Ma Heng handed Ma Jun a few book scores, which were the works of Zhang Heng, known as the Wood Sage, "Armillary Chart Notes" and "Theory of Calculation".
Looking at Ma Jun, who was ecstatic and speechless, Ma Heng hurriedly signaled Ma Jun to calm down. Zhang Heng is also a mediocre talent, but he entered the Tao with a weapon, and finally achieved the name of the wood saint, and the geokinetic instrument he made was a famous artifact, but unfortunately he disappeared with the death of Zhang Hengxian. Ma Jun is obvious, and he also has the talent to enter the Tao with weapons, and his talent is extremely amazing!
