"Sister, look at this house, it's so strange. Why is it built outside the city, blocking the way into the city?" Huan Huan curiously pointed to the endless stone houses in front of her, while looking at Yongzhou, which has a small city tower. city.
These stone houses are less than one foot high, and the entire walls are built with stones of different sizes. Because there is some mud adhesion, it appears to be very strong and stable. Seeing that the roofs of the houses are made of large logs, the beams are so tight that it makes you feel at ease. Although the roof is only covered with bark and thatch, in this era, it is already a good place for ordinary people to live.
Of course, the roofs of these houses are also completely made of tightly packed timber, and the gaps in the timber are covered with bark. This kind of house is considered a very particular house. Most of these houses are independent buildings with a small yard in front of them. However, the houses are very close to each other, but they are still wide enough for aisles. Each building seems to be very organized, just stretching along the way. It looks pretty good at this time.
"Hmm! My sister was very curious when she saw it for the first time, but I heard that this is to prevent someone from attacking the city and prevent a large-scale attack on the towers inside. It is a front that can prevent the army from attacking. It can be used in wartime. Carry out effective street fighting and turn the house into a fortress at any time. Although it feels a little tasteless, it effectively prevents the destruction of the city and the land." Huarui seemed to be talking eloquently.
This made Ran Xiuniang look at the stamens with some surprise. She originally thought that the stamens were just superficial. In addition, knowing that Liu Jixing was very fond of Hua Rui, I naturally despised him a bit. At this time, I saw that Huan Huan seemed a little close, and I couldn't help but feel a little bitter. Because Huanhuan was pestering Liu Jixing these days, Liu Jixing was with Huarui again, and finally the four of them were together.
Seeing that Huan Huan seemed to understand and was very interested, Hua Rui was naturally overflowing with love and couldn't help but said: "Although it seems to have caused a lot of trouble to the city and the water village, it is actually better. It has protected this large amphibious city. Therefore, such a large area of buildings in front of the city not only solves the problem of survival for many people, but also gives the city more room for development! "
Thinking back to when she and Liu Jixing came here, Hua Rui was also extremely surprised when she saw everyone moving stones to build houses. At this time, when Huanhuan asked the same question, Huarui became a gentleman for once.
However, according to Liu Jixing, there were too many new words in it. Not only Huanhuan couldn't understand it, but also Ran Xiuniang and Ouyang Tong were startled. Then I thought of some key points and slowly came back to it.
Because Huarui had been alone with Liu Jixing for a few days, she had already heard a lot of what Liu Jixing said. When she thought of this, Huarui looked at Liu Jixing and smiled, because that's what Liu Jixing told him at the beginning, and he happened to show it today.
Think about it, if you didn't go south, how could you see so many things in this life, and how would you know the reasons for so many things in the world. When thinking of this, although she missed her previous life, Huarui suddenly seemed to feel relieved when she thought of the changes during this period and her current state. Looking at Liu Jixing, who was very kind to her, she suddenly felt a sweet feeling.
Liu Jixing couldn't help but gently held Hua Rui's shoulder, but did not speak immediately. Because I feel the sadness in the heart of the flower, and the relief after the sadness. Naturally, Liu Jixing would not be stupid enough to explain his selfishness. I just hope that when that day comes, if Hua Rui knows that all this is her own arrangement, she can forgive her selfishness!
At this time, the sun has not set in the west, but the colorful clouds on the horizon are already very gorgeous.
He pointed at the house in front of him and looked at the stone houses in front of him. Most of them only had one floor. They stretched darkly along the river, completely covering both sides of the river and the official road, but they seemed to form a beautiful scenery.
It seems that it was a correct decision for him to send He Guo and He Xiaoyao here. Although he was not as good as Guo Jing in guerrilla attacks everywhere, which frightened Zhou Xingfeng, he still guarded the gate of Xiangchu southward. From a strategic point of view, Lingnan occupies the south gate of Xiangchu. If it wants to advance north in the future, it can launch a blanket attack at any time.
Although there has never been a precedent of marching north to occupy the Central Plains, Liu Jixing thought about it. If he hovered north of Wuling, he would have firmly secured Yongzhou City as long as he used his elusive troops and advanced weapons here. Yongzhou City is undoubtedly its own barrier for advancing westward and southward. However, if he could secure Yongzhou for more than half a year, Liu Jixing would be sure to completely sort out Sichuan and lay out the entire Xiangchu.
Looking in the distance towards Hengzhou, that city that I was once very familiar with, I wonder what it will look like now. Liu Jixing seemed to be thinking deeply, because he had played a big game of chess. Although he may not always go as he wished, as long as he worked hard, Liu Jixing thought that he would not regret it. Even during this Hengzhou City Exhibition, Liu Jixing did not instruct He Guo to go to support, but only blocked the area along the Xiangjiang River in order to stabilize this amphibious land.
He Guo obviously performed well. He appointed him as the commander of his own army, Meichuan Capital, just to give him a status, and more importantly, to train young talents like him. Because Lingnan is short of young generals. For the sake of his own status, my cheap man killed them cleanly and intimidated them thoroughly, but it also brought the disadvantage of having no successors.
Liu Jixing was so anxious to delegate power and cultivate, even to the point of raising tigers, just to have more generals under his command. As for whether each place can get truly unique talents, it depends on its own vision. Although He Guo is still far from enough, after seeing everything he has arranged here, he can be regarded as a person who develops and sticks to the base. With a little guidance, he should be just around the corner to become a handsome man!
But will this era give itself time?
Although the house in front of him is just a tentative measure, it undoubtedly proves the significance of its existence. Just like the building districts in later generations, they were built in pieces. It will not hinder the lives of the people, and is conducive to the management of the court. It can also effectively prevent large troops from invading the city.
Why not live up to expectations and deploy it in a short time, make more effective use of the refugees, strengthen your own prestige, and consolidate the future of Yongzhou City. Today's Yongzhou City seems to have two more arms, stretching out for two or three miles. Liu Jixing was thinking about whether he should meet his favorite general. However, thinking that Ouyang Tong was around, he gave up the idea.
We are now in a restaurant in Yongzhou City. The three-story attic should be one of the tallest restaurants in Yongzhou City.
"Sister, have you been here before?" Huan Huan couldn't help but asked with some confusion when she saw that Hua Rui's words were clear and logical.
"Hmm, when I came here not long ago, this house was not built so much!" Huarui was also a little excited. Thinking that this was Liu Jixing's masterpiece, she couldn't help but be a little more surprised by the young man beside her: "Look at that. On the river bank next to it, the houses used to be next to the big tree, but now I see there are houses two or three hundred meters ahead. How many people have houses? It’s great! "
Seeing the women whispering, Ouyang Tong was surprisingly silent. He actually passed by here a few days ago, but when he heard Hua Rui say this, he was even more surprised.
Just imagine the small town of Jidong just now. It would take several days for ordinary people to walk there. And Hua Rui followed the boy all the way. Although the boy had a lot of energy, he was not very skilled at it himself. How could he walk with Hua Rui quickly? It was obvious that someone else had to help him.
This person must be a master! It seemed that this young man was really not that simple, but Ouyang Tong really didn't expect that Liu Jixing came from that master. But thinking about the rumors he had heard, Liu Jixing fell into deep thought. Could it be that he was really related to that old antique? The powerful faction behind her is enough to support this young man's identity!
Although Liu Jixing didn't say anything, Ouyang Tong knew that his matter was almost done. Although he has a bit of a venomous mouth, he seems to be quite principled. When Ouyang Tong thought of this, he couldn't help but feel proud and excited. But he no longer had the slightest interest in the table of dishes in front of him that he had paid for. He couldn't help but take out a piece of muntjac meat from his bamboo backpack and started chewing it while drinking wine.
"There has just been a war here. It seems that a big event happened here on the day I came here! I didn't expect it to be so peaceful now, which is rare!" Hua Rui seemed to have thought of something, and was suddenly in a daze!
Liu Jixing went to the latrine and saw the secret party symbol in the restaurant, so he quickly left a secret message.
There were not many people in the restaurant at this time. Liu Jixing stood in the dark and saw a waiter receiving the secret order. Then he saw that no one saw him. Liu Jixing thought for a moment. Seeing that no one showed up, he couldn't help but smile slightly. He nodded in appreciation, then walked up the stairs unsteadily.
Perhaps feeling embarrassed to eat alone, Ouyang Tong saw Liu Jixing coming up and actually took out another piece of muntjac meat to share. Although someone at the table next to him smelled the fragrance and looked sideways, they saw Ouyang Tong's carefree look and did not come over to ask for a while.
After a while, a man who looked like a shopkeeper came over, saluted and asked, "Who is the minister here?"
Liu Jixing stood up generously and saluted: "Who is your Excellency?"
"I am Yang Ming, the shopkeeper of Shunfeng Boating. I received a notice that the official ordered a light boat. Now the boat is ready. I wonder when the official needs to set off?" The shopkeeper named Yang Ming was very polite. It seems that he is a businessman who has been good at this for a long time.
"You can set off immediately! Shopkeeper Yang will wait for a moment, and I will go with my family right away!" Liu Jixing spoke politely in Mandarin, but it didn't make anyone feel strange.
! ! !
"The apes on both sides of the bank can't stop crying, and the boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains!"
Liu Jixing smiled slightly and casually recited this famous line from the poet. Looking at the winding river in front of me, I stood at the bow of the boat with my hands behind my back, looking quite like a scholar. (To be continued.)
