Holding three thousand strands of black hair in her arms, she is suspected to be a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world.
The three poles in the sun have not risen yet, and everyone who hears the call knows why.
Early the next morning, Ma Su opened his wand in excitement, and his whole body was so happy that he almost burst into tears.
Last night, he not only found out how many thorns a leaf can have at most, but also gained a deeper understanding of the great wizard.
This is pretty good.
The only problem was that his soul was consumed too much. When he went out of the tent, the cold air made him shiver violently. His head trembled for a while, and then he became numb. If his eldest son, Ma Wen, hadn't been quick to hold him with his eyesight, he would have died.
My legs were weak and I was making a fool of myself.
One look at Ma Wen's face, which was as red as a prawn stewed in oil, and Ma Su knew that this brat must have secretly listened to something he shouldn't have heard at his age last night.
So I simply put all my weight on his shoulders, rested for a while, went to eat barbecue, took a portion back to the camp, handed it to the great wizard, and then fell asleep.
It was already afternoon when I woke up again.
Ma Su felt that he had regained some strength, so he left the great wizard who was still asleep and came to the construction site to inspect the progress of the road.
Seeing his father coming, Ma Wen quickly handed over a big spade, waved the small spade himself, and started working hard.
After a few swings, Ma Su started to breathe heavily while leaning on the handle of the shovel.
After a while, Ma Wen also put down the spade in his hand, blushed and hesitated: "Father, I am sixteen this year."
Ma Di stared at Ma Wen and said approvingly: "Well, not bad! I'll give you a big spade tomorrow."
Ma Wen snorted, lowered his head and continued to work.
In the evening, he mentioned again: "Father, I have grown up."
Ma Su took a careful look at Ma Wen, who still looked childish, shook his head and said, "It's getting dark. We won't work overtime to build roads at night. Let's get a big shovel tomorrow. Don't worry."
"..." Ma Wen left depressedly, carrying his small spade.
Early the next morning, Ma Wen "got his wish" and picked up the big spade. While working, his face grew long and full of melancholy.
When the three generals saw this, they were puzzled.
Zhang Xiu couldn't help but asked curiously: "Master, why are you so unhappy?"
As soon as this statement came out, the surrounding migrant workers pricked up their ears.
There is a big melon, you must eat it!
Huang Xi echoed from the side: "Yes, why is the eldest son so unhappy? Is it because the Jade Girl's Sutra I gave you because of my humble position is not good-looking? Don't panic, I still have the Thirty-six Tiangang Styles and the Seventy-two Dishas here."
Li Sheng pulled Huang Xi away and said angrily: "Young Master is only sixteen. Just read him that kind of book, and you won't be afraid that General Ma will settle the score with you!"
Huang Xi laughed and said nonchalantly: "Sixteen is not too young. I got married at fifteen."
Zhang Xiu was startled when he heard this: "Didn't you say before that you didn't get married until you were twenty? Why did it become fifteen again?"
Li Sheng was also startled for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Lao Zhang, ignore him, he is not talking about age."
Hearing this, everyone around him immediately came to his senses and burst into laughter.
The construction site was instantly filled with happy air.
The total length of the Jianning-Yunnan Highway is 1,000 miles. This time, the migrant workers completed the repair and paving of the entire section of the road in only three months. This was the result of a five-day rest in the middle.
This is because the road construction technology has become more and more familiar, and the migrant workers have learned to cooperate with each other instead of blindly working alone, so the speed is faster than before.
It is expected that the entire highway will be completed in three days, that is, before the end of December. Together with the two previously repaired roads, a "herringbone"-shaped transportation network will be formed from Chengdu to Nanzhong General.
During the year of road construction, Ma Su gained a lot, the most important of which were four.
The first is the discovery of a large amount of volcanic ash that can replace cement. This is also the only way to build cement roads in this era.
There are no restrictions on the use of volcanic ash. Wherever there are volcanoes, there will be volcanic ash. South Central is mountainous, and there happen to be many extinct volcanoes. Gray and black volcanic ash are everywhere.
The second harvest was the discovery of a piece of red metal as big as a millstone that had melted and solidified in the volcanic ash.
After identification, Ma Su discovered that this was a very rare red gold that could not be seen on the market.
Immediately, my heart moved, and I ordered people to forge several red gold daggers and hundreds of round medals of different sizes, and engraved "First Class Merit", "Second Class Merit", and "Third Class Merit" on each medal.
, "fourth-class merit", "fifth-class merit".
After a fierce operation, the red gold as big as a millstone was wiped out.
The third gain is that he played the piano and flute in harmony with the great wizard, and contributed a small amount to the population explosion of the Shu Han Dynasty.
The fourth is to gain a well-trained and extremely rough-resistant engineering team.
These are four very valuable gains. The first one can be used to build unlimited roads. As long as enough roads are built, the future development speed of Shu Han will basically far exceed that of Wei and Wu.
The second medal and the golden sword are obviously of great use, but Ma Di has not yet had time to work out a detailed incentive plan for how to use them.
Not to mention the third one, as soon as he saw the great wizard's lazy style, Ma Su couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and giggled "Kukuku".
This clock is wonderful and cannot be described to outsiders.
The fourth harvest is of course a priceless treasure. A well-trained engineering team will give an empire wings to take off.
Without infrastructure, the country cannot be strong.
However, not everything is smooth sailing.
On the battlefield of Jianghan Plain, Wei and Wu are still at each other's stalemate, and there has been no fighting for a month.
After hearing the news, Ma Su had an inexplicable impulse in his heart, a strong impulse to rush to the front line immediately. This impulse tempted him to give up the trivial matter of road construction and run directly to Jianghan Plain, even if he was in danger.
Being shot into a porcupine is fine as long as it can provoke the two countries to continue the war.
When the impulse is strong, it is almost impossible to suppress it.
Fortunately, Ma Su, who was in sage mode, quickly calmed down and realized that both Sima Yi and Lu Xun were top military geniuses, and it was difficult for them to be exploited over and over again without realizing it.
However, although they are experienced, they are all ministers after all, and ministers must ultimately listen to their emperor. Even if they cannot directly interfere with the two of them, as long as it affects the state of mind of one of Wei Emperor Cao Rui and Wu Emperor Sun Quan, the state of mind will be greatly affected.
They just have to go to war at all costs.
After careful reasoning, Ma Su keenly thought of a way to continue the war between Wei and Wu.
insidious!
This strategy is too insidious!
Hey hey, Sima Yi, take the move!
As soon as he thought of it, Ma Su immediately returned to the camp excitedly and pulled the desk on the side to the middle.
Seeing the desk move to a familiar position again, the Qiang girl's expression suddenly changed.
Ma Su ignored her, took out his pen and ink and splashed ink on the desk. After he finished writing, he caught the eagle and watched it fly into the air, turn into a small black dot and disappear, which made him feel happy.
Jianyun Avenue has been basically completed. All the roads that need to be paved have been paved and the places that need to be reinforced have been reinforced. However, this does not mean that there is nothing to do. There are still two main roads waiting to be repaired.
Building roads is much more important than fighting a war.
Ma Di worked in Yunnan County for another five days. During this period, it continued to snow. Although Ma Di was not affected by his work in the tent, the 20,000 migrant workers complained endlessly and the speed of road construction was greatly slowed down.
What could have been done in three days took five days to complete.
After days of hard work in the snow, all the trails became muddy. The wooden truck transporting cement got stuck in the mud several times and could not get out. It was only through the concerted efforts of all the migrant workers that the truck could be pulled out.
come out.
But since Ma Su was working alone, he didn't need anyone's help and could do it by himself.
Therefore, after the road was completed, Ma Su simply rested for a few days to regain some energy before leading the engineering team to the next construction site.
Soon, we arrived at the start site of the Jianning-Yuexi section.
On this day, after once again sending away Ma Wen's hint of "I have grown up", Ma Di waved his hand, and 20,000 migrant workers immediately started working in full swing.
And in the distance invisible to the 20,000 migrant workers, Ma Di was also working hard.
Although the work made him exhausted, it also made him physically and mentally happy.
Widening roads and building roads to places that have never been reached always stirs up excitement in people's hearts.
………
Kyoto of the Great Wei Dynasty, Luoyang, Imperial Palace.
This winter is extremely cold.
But Cao Rui's heart was even colder.
The eagle that had never seen its tail came again and brought him another letter.
The letter said: "With Sima Zhongda's ability to attack Mengda from thousands of miles away, and his wisdom to defeat Zhuge Liang with a snap of his fingers, how can Lu Xun, a thief who only defends himself, be their combined enemy?"
"Now our general Man Chong, the leader of the Eastern Front of the Wei Dynasty, has defeated Sun Quan's 100,000-strong army, marched into Chaohu, and pointed his sword at Jianye. However, the general Sima Yi has 80,000 troops and is in a stalemate with Lu Xun's 50,000-strong army. Such an obvious delay
Is it possible that your Majesty turned a blind eye to the opportunity to fight and support the bandits in order to show self-respect?"
Sima Yi.
You are fine!
Cao Rui clenched his fists.
The facts are indeed as stated in the letter. Zhuge Liang is so capable that Sima Yi can even fight. There is no reason why Sima Yi can't defeat Lu Xun. What's more, in order to ensure the absolute advantage of the Jianghan front, Cao Rui also allocated half of the Chinese army, that is, five
Ten thousand elite troops rushed to Fancheng to provide support for Sima Yi.
With such a powerful force, how could Sima Yi hold on without fighting?
Did I ask you to defend the city?
That’s not true!
Cao Rui became angrier the more he thought about it.
He immediately called the eunuchs, drafted an imperial edict, and rushed 800 miles to the front line of Xiangyang, urging Sima Yi to quickly fight Lu Xun.
Of course, Cao Rui was also a monarch who knew military affairs. He knew that the decisive moment in battle could not be fixed in time, so he did not set a time limit in the imperial edict.
But the wording in the imperial edict was extremely harsh.
After the eunuch who delivered the order left, Cao Rui picked up the two letters, compared them, frowned and pondered.
Obviously, someone is taking advantage of him.
But this person was using a conspiracy, and he believed what he said was true, so he had to take advantage of this conspiracy.
Cao Rui stood up and walked out of the hall, stood upstairs, and looked to the south from the air. He saw that the sky and the earth were covered in gray and snowflakes were falling.
In the distance, the sky was extremely low and connected with the ground. Just like his mood, it was depressed and confused.
