It's only February now, and it will take more than two months to wait for the end of the cold winter, but it has started to get slightly warm in the past few days. According to previous lives, it will be warmer for more than half a month, and there will be another late spring cold in early March.
Therefore, in the past few days, we must promptly remind everyone not to do spring plowing, and to prepare for the sudden late spring cold... And in order to appease the people, we must explain the potato matter in advance, letting everyone know that it doesn't matter if you miss the spring plowing, it will be There is something to grow for you.
As for Xu Tingshen's side, building the city wall would require a lot of work including surveying, site location, and strategic design, which would take several months.
So, after you finish your work here, go and catch up on things over there, just in time.
After Shen Zhoujin thought for a while, he called Qin Yunchiao, Lu Zhiji, Cu Liancheng, and Lin Songhan all back, and then asked them to take charge of things here together with Huo Lingjue.
She still returned to the border and took her young apprentice to deal with the affairs of the border army.
After the tenth day of February, the weather became warmer day by day, and the thermometer reached seven or eight degrees above zero. The accumulated snow seemed to have melted overnight, and there was mud everywhere.
Xu Tingshen looked gentle on the outside, but he was a practical person. He took people directly to the border, asked to see Prince Xin, and asked a few veterans who were familiar with the terrain. Then with the help of the border army, he built a simple military camp. , about two hundred people were stationed here, and they were assigned to go out to investigate. He also went there himself, and he stayed there for several days.
Shen Zhoujin was a worried person. He knew it was not going to work as soon as he saw their simple military camp. In two days, the spring cold will arrive. Even if it is similar to the previous winter, this kind of straw shack cannot withstand it at all. It is not the problem of the stove, it is directly connected. It is not impossible that all the shacks will be blown away.
So when she heard Xu Tingshen's return, she went over and gave him a seemingly unintentional reminder.
When Xu Tingshen came here, he was still a white-faced scholar. In just a few days, he turned darker. He was dressed like a farmer. He was wearing smart clothes, leggings, and carrying a book box. He stood still and listened to her words, showing his big white teeth. He smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Princess. I understand."
Then one night later, he hurriedly took the people away again.
Shen Zhoujin: "..."
After all, they were her own people, and she couldn't just watch them freeze to death. She could only call a few big soldiers to cover their shacks with cement, make simple ground dragons, and specially divided them into two large rooms. You can sleep and eat at the same time.
Although it is a bit ugly, it will last for a month without any problem.
Xie Caoxin strolled over again and said behind her: "Do you know that it's because of your temper that the emperor plotted against you like this?"
Shen Zhoujin said depressedly: "Shut up!"
Xie Siwei laughed a few times, then reached out his hand rebelliously and touched the little master's head: "But you are really cute like this."
Shen Zhoujin kicked him out, but Xie Siwei dodged nimbly and said with a smile: "A very powerful little fairy, with so many magical methods, but also has many family members who care about him, and his heart is very warm. This pair This world is truly a blessing to the Emperor."
He paused for a moment: "Master of the world, Your Majesty is wise."
Shen Zhoujin snorted.
She is really wise. She should be given the title of father in the world, the father of everyone. It is not unacceptable for my father to take care of you rebellious sons.
While the two were talking, they saw Prince Xin striding over and shouting from afar: "Jin'er! Jin'er!"
Shen Zhoujin walked over quickly: "What's wrong?"
Prince Xin pointed at the hat on his head and almost stuck out his tongue: "I'm so hot, can you make it a little thinner?"
Shen Zhoujin was also happy and took him back quickly. The rabbit fur was soaked when he touched it. He found a cloth hat for him to put on. He didn't care whether it looked good or not. He cut a hole in the top to expose his bun. While asking: "How is it?"
"It's not bad," Prince Xin just held up a stool to fan himself. The more powerful they are, the more powerful they are. If you think about it for a long time, you will be able to feel this thing... Just the feeling of hearing me talking and nodding with me, do you understand?"
Shen Zhoujin smiled and said, "Okay, then think about it slowly."
Prince Xin put down his stool and said: "There is one thing, because I used to often think that it would be great if all the soldiers under my command were three-headed and six-armed, so now... sometimes I can't help but think about what if they It's fine if you have three heads and six arms, and then you quickly stop thinking about it. Do you think this is okay?"
Shen Zhoujin was about to laugh to death from him: "It's okay, just think about it. Although you can't grow three heads and six arms, you might have abilities comparable to those of three heads and six arms. It's not a loss."
Joking aside, but perhaps because Prince Xin has a sense of belief in the power of his soldiers, many of them have made rapid progress, and their progress is not inferior to that of his apprentices. Even Jiang Yinchi and the others said they felt that the soldiers felt good after they came back from training. My brothers are much more powerful.
Even ordinary soldiers who do not know martial arts can be improved in strength. This kind of group strength increase is really not possible except for a border guard like Prince Xin who cares about his family and country.
It's early March in the blink of an eye.
On the night of March 3rd, snow suddenly started to fall, and everyone was immediately alert. Sure enough, at night, the temperature began to plummet again, so I took off my coat and put it back on again.
After Shen Zhoujin had breakfast, he went to Xu Tingshen's side to have a look.
The stove had been turned on, and she could feel the warmth from afar. Shen Zhoujin called him from outside, and someone opened the thick curtain and let her in.
It was early in the morning, and there was already a table of people sitting inside.
Although Xu Tingshen pretended to be stupid, he actually knew it well. The hard work of a group of people was really hard. They raced against time and took advantage of the warm weather to run around non-stop. It was cold, so it was just a good time to consolidate the information.
Moreover, his team obviously did not build it casually. There were real experts. They mapped out piles and piles of soil and vegetation, and used them to judge the soil quality. It feels that it is no worse than the surveys of later generations.
Shen Zhoujin looked at it for a while and thought it looked like that, so he opened the curtain again and came out without disturbing them.
The snow was still falling heavily. Shen Zhoujin slid back slowly and drew a few flowers on the snow. As soon as he entered the camp gate, he saw a big-headed soldier running over and said hurriedly: "Master Shen, Master Shen" !The general has fainted! His mouth and nose are bleeding, please go quickly!"
Shen Zhoujin was startled: "What's going on? Where is it!?"
He said: "Military doctor's tent!"
Shen Zhoujin ignored the soldier and flew all the way over. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the military doctor using a cloth to wipe away the blood from Prince Xin's mouth and nose, and bleeding was slowly coming from his ears. Shen Zhoujin was frightened. Jump: "Uncle!!"
