Chapter 123 The God of War returns, with a single order, 20,000 people will repair together
Chapter 123 The God of War returns, gives an order, and 20,000 people build roads together (please vote for me!)
After Yang Yi left, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, Jiang Wan, Deng Zhi, Jiang Wei and others remained in the study.
"Wen Wei!" Zhuge Liang looked around at everyone and told Fei Yi: "Go and supervise Duke Wei and make sure he gets everything done."
Fei Yi accepted the order and left.
"Xiu Zhao, have you made arrangements for spring plowing?" Zhuge Liang continued to ask.
"The arrangements have been made," Dong Yun replied.
"What about the breeding of spring silkworms? Have you given birth to mulberries?"
"Give it."
"Have the seats been expanded?"
"When it is expanded, it will be in accordance with the highest standards."
"Has the sand been removed?"
"Except once every morning."
Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment: "It's not enough, I'll add another one tonight."
"Yes, Prime Minister! But there are not enough people in the tapestry room..."
Zhuge Liang waved his hand calmly: "Continue recruiting."
"yes!"
Dong Yun cupped his hands and turned to leave.
Zhuge Liang set his sights on Jiang Wan: "Gong Yan, have all the major canals in Jiangbei responsible for irrigating fertile fields been dredged and inspected?"
"Prime Minister, the hot summer is coming. Wan has been busy strengthening the dams along the river recently and has not had time to take care of this matter in the future."
“Implement it as soon as possible!”
"Yes, Prime Minister, but the weather has been good recently. The project of dredging the canals is huge, and I don't have enough manpower under my command. Do you think..."
"Bo Miao, you are responsible for this!" Zhuge Liang turned to Deng Zhi.
"yes!"
Deng Zhi took the order and left.
"Bo Yue, are there any important matters for the troops in Hanzhong recently? Have you slacked off in the training of your soldiers?" Zhuge Liang looked at Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei stepped forward and reported carefully.
………
Longping Mountain, volcano.
It seems that it is still alive and can erupt something again at any time.
But in fact, it is already dead, having sprayed 99% of the hot slurry. Even if there is still some hot slurry left in it, it is basically unable to spray out due to lack of power.
However, due to the huge size of the mountain and the recent death, there is still some faint heat left in the huge vent at the top of the mountain. From the vent downwards, there is only fine gray pyroclastic dust.
Mountain ash spread a huge layer around the entire mountain, spreading for more than ten miles.
Ma Su has never seen so much volcanic ash.
Every handful of volcanic ash on the ground shone like gold in his eyes, just like Zhang Fei, who had been single for thirty-three years, met Xiahou Ba's sister in the wild, and his blood pressure suddenly reached its peak.
Let's talk about that day, Zhang Fei passed by a small stream on horseback and saw a girl carrying firewood crossing the stream. She was slim and pretty. He immediately shouted: "This is my wife!" After saying this, he picked up the girl on his horse and took her back to the camp and forced her to
Got married.
Ma Su was the same at this moment. He was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He spread his arms and hugged the entire extinct volcano, shouting: "Mine! Everything here is mine!"
As the sky gradually darkened, Ma Su was still running and shouted for a while before stopping.
The excitement could not calm down for a long time.
Very good!
So much volcanic ash is enough to build a 5,000-mile-long artery in the seven counties of Nanzhong.
Ma Su stayed in the small tent all night, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. This caused the Qiang girl to have slight dark circles under her eyes when she woke up the next day, and her big, bright eyes looked a little tired and haggard.
Of course, nothing happened during the night.
Ma Su is now focused on repairing the road and has no regard for his children's personal affairs.
The energy level isn't quite there either.
After all, when I first came out, I was beaten to the point of losing everything by my original wife.
Under Ma Su's command, 20,000 people ran back together carrying the volcanic ash. Because the scene was so sensational and attracted countless people to watch, Ma Su had to detach 500 soldiers and station them around Longping Mountain to prevent people from stealing the ash for their own use.
On April 1, the seventh year of Jianxing (229), amid a burst of thunder, the first phase of the Chengdu-Jianning project officially started.
The first phase of the journey is a hundred miles long, starting at the south gate of Chengdu and ending a hundred miles south of Chengdu.
Ma Su gave an order, and 20,000 migrant workers evenly distributed along the hundred miles of road started working enthusiastically.
What they have to do is to mix ash and sand, spread the evenly mixed mortar on the road, then use special long poles to smooth the surface, and then wait on both sides of the road to wait for the road to solidify.
Since the road was ready-made and the 20,000 people had been trained for nearly a month in advance, the road paving was carried out very quickly. The first phase of the project was completed in just two days.
In fact, they finished paving a hundred miles of road (Hanli, equivalent to about 40 kilometers) on the first day, and the other day was spent waiting for the road surface to completely solidify.
Looking at the beautiful and practical hundred-mile long road, the huge sense of accomplishment overwhelmed the 20,000 migrant workers. The adoring eyes of the people made them feel proud and full of accomplishment.
This job can be done!
I have to work even if I don’t get paid!
Just take care of the food!
They felt that a vigorous desire seemed to be activated in their bones.
They don't know that it's called "Infrastructure Maniac".
Ma Su knows.
But to be honest, he did not expect the huge enthusiasm burst out by the Qiang workers.
This even made the "Yugong Spiritual Possession Water" that he had prepared for a long time useless.
This may be the ultimate essence of what Zi said in Kawakami, "When you have a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail."
With the support of huge enthusiasm, the speed of paving roads is so fast that it changes drastically every day.
A brand new, smooth, and wide cement road was soon displayed in front of all the civil and military officials of the Shu Han Dynasty.
While the officials were amazed, they all stretched out their fingers and feet to poke and step on the road to verify the hardness of the road.
After trying it, everyone was amazed and had mixed feelings.
Hard, so hard! This road surface is exactly the kind of hardness they dream of but cannot achieve.
Wide, too wide! The road is wide enough for eight carriages to run side by side!
Fast, so fast! This speed of road construction is simply unprecedented and unheard of. In this era of shoulder-carrying handbags, a hundred miles of road was built in just two days...
Is heaven created?
Liu Chan, who came to watch with Zhuge Liang after hearing the news, opened his eyes wide in amazement when he first saw this heavenly road. He shook his chubby hands and praised repeatedly:
"Okay, what a great road! Xiangfu, if we use the road construction materials to build a big stage in the palace, it must be quite strong and durable, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time. Xiangfu, I'm just saying casually, ah, whatever
Talk about it."
Zhuge Liang slowly withdrew his stern gaze from Liu Chan, feeling greatly relieved.
It must be said that the excitement a capable minister brings to the court is huge and unprecedented.
Shu Han is so lucky!
Even Yang Yi, who was secretly always unhappy with Ma Su, curled his lips angrily at this moment and said to himself:
Cowhide!
………
In the blink of an eye, half a month later, Chengdu-Jianning, that is, Chengjian Avenue was successfully completed. Looking at Ma Su, who had lost weight but was in good spirits, everyone stood in awe.
In any era, people who are down-to-earth and hard-working will be sincerely admired.
And Ma Su is exactly such a person.
Not only did he set an example by personally carrying a spade into battle, but he also taught everyone how to shout and sing some songs that were particularly easy to catch to increase their motivation.
"Without migrant workers, there would be no road to heaven", "He said that the road in the wind and rain is nothing", "We, the road builders, are different", "Wherever the sound of road construction comes, the sound touches my heart"
, "The black spade and your smiling face"...
Everyone was quickly brainwashed by these beautiful or exciting songs, and they thought of nothing but building roads.
As long as you have a spade in your hand, your heart will be filled with the heroic feeling of "I own the world"!
Women? Women will only affect their hand speed in building roads!
Ma Su did not carefully study the anomalies of the migrant workers. Seeing that the people's support could be used, he immediately started the second phase of the project, Jianning-Yongchang.
When everyone heard the news, they laughed loudly and continued to spread their arms and fuck hard.
But this section of the road is no longer as easy to repair as before.
Unlike Jianning to Chengdu, where there is a wide highway and what the migrant workers did was just pave the road, the thousand-mile road from Jianning to Yongchang is all rugged and narrow mountain roads.
The proportion of road construction in road construction suddenly increased from 10% before to 90%; on the contrary, the proportion of paved roads increased from 90% before to 10%.
The workload suddenly increased ninefold.
From mid-April to the end of May, the journey from Jianning to Yongchang was barely halfway done.
At the same time, the house leaked and it rained all night. The engineering team was about to run out of food. The existing food was only enough for half a month.
Previously, in order to support the road construction project, Zhuge Liang allocated all the military rations prepared for the Northern Expedition to Ma Su, which was two months of rations.
At that time, Ma Su patted his chest and promised that he would find a solution to the food problem and that the prime minister did not need to worry about it anymore.
He said so, but in fact, he had no other option except taking out a loan to buy grain.
The total loan amount subsequently reached 40,000 points, and the personal balance was 2,179 points (of which 2,000 points were loans).
Ma Su clicked on the system and spent 100 points to buy 5,000 stone grains (enough to feed 20,000 people for 8 days). He was stunned when he found that the icon cooling time was as high as 29 days.
This situation means that no one is willing to send him food recently.
Then we can only go for robbery...cross out the whole paragraph, then we can only think of other ways.
Considering that the engineering team is currently in the mountains between Jianning and Yongchang, Ma Su has the talent of "quickly hearing food" and takes the Qiang women around every day.
The roads are no longer being repaired.
This made the three generals very puzzled, but the most puzzling one was the fifteen-year-old Ma Wen.
"Father" originally set an example and did a good job. He took the lead in building roads every day and boosted the morale of the 20,000 migrant workers.
Now that there is such a sudden stop, the enthusiasm of the migrant workers for road construction has suddenly dropped a lot, and the progress of road construction has slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With no choice, Ma Wen had no choice but to step in and play the role of leading by example in Ma Su's place.
The morale of the migrant workers soon recovered.
But Xiao Ma Wen felt very depressed.
He is still a child, at an age where he can eat but not work. Under the supervision of tens of thousands of pairs of eyes, he can't be lazy every day, which makes him unhappy. The huge workload also makes him particularly overwhelmed.
At this time, Ma Su was still wandering around with the Qiang girls (looking for food).
On this day, the two of them walked to a ridge where wild flowers were in full bloom. Ma Su broke off a bright red rose and inserted it into the Qiang girl's smooth hair. He was about to lift her veil and see the true face of Mount Lu...
Suddenly his nose twitched and he looked to the southwest following the smell.
A strong, fragrant smell instantly spread throughout his olfactory nerves.
It tastes like food!
Ma Su was immediately overjoyed. Having food meant that the engineering team could continue working like this until the second phase of the project was completed.
Very good!
You can see the true appearance of Qiang girls later. Anyway, the pot is in the flesh and cannot escape.
Ma Su took back his hand, found a slightly higher position, opened the map, looked at the surrounding terrain, and calculated where the food appeared.
