Zhang Cheng lay on Chen Yuanyuan's bed, holding her round shoulders in his arms, and asked her softly: "Why do you want to watch pirated copies?"

Chen Yuanyuan leaned in Zhang Cheng's arms and replied with an innocent face: "I don't know what the general meant by what he said!"

Zhang Cheng's face gradually turned cold, his face was as dark as water, and he smiled ferociously: "You have seen the pirated version and you still don't recognize it?"

As he spoke, he hit Chen Yuanyuan's pink and tender buttocks with a big wave of his hand. He took turns firing his bow from left to right, and the sound of "pah, pah, pah" was endless.

"...ah...ah..."

Only the firemen in each bureau of his infantry camp did not participate in the work, but they were also busy working nervously. The genius was slightly bright, and the sun only peeked out. They were densely gathered on the slopes of Changling Mountain.

The fire soldiers were busy setting up large iron pots, boiling water and making porridge. The fragrant steamed buns were also quickly prepared one by one. The rich flavor of steamed buns and the aroma of wheat porridge wafted out from time to time. Those The civilians, husbands, and military men who were closer all looked salivating.

Bathed in the smell of steamed buns and the aroma of wheat porridge, they worked even harder, as if they were afraid that if they didn't put in more effort, the soldiers would not give them wheat porridge and steamed buns.

"Have you seen that big steamed bun? It's so big and mysterious!"

"...This General Zhang is really willing...can he really care about whether we have enough to eat?"

"That's 80% true. Didn't you see that the steamed buns were piled high..."

Several working men were chatting while digging trenches. Song Shanquan, General Manager of the Central Government, happened to pass by. He squatted on the edge of the ditch and said with a smile: "Don't guess, the iron and steel pipes are full. As long as you work hard and don't be lazy, can you see? , the hills of steamed buns over there are all prepared for you."

"Hey, I'd like to thank the general in advance. We will definitely try our best today, but we will never dare to hide our adultery in front of the general!"

An old man over forty years old smiled and talked. He had already taken off his coat. Although there was not much flesh on his bare arms, his veins were exposed. Although the sun was not strong yet, sweat was flowing down his body. It looks like this is really hard work.

Song Shanquan stood up and raised his voice and shouted loudly to all the people: "You all heard this very clearly. As long as you work hard to dig trenches and build walls today, you will be able to control the situation. It will be steamed buns in the morning." , wheat porridge with pickles, and big pancakes with broth at noon.

But if anyone who dares to hide a traitor and is unproductive at work is caught by me, not only will he not get buns, big cakes, and broth, but he will not be paid a penny, and he will also be sent to Qiu Futai for punishment.

Did you hear it clearly? "

Before Song Shanquan finished speaking, the civilians and soldiers around him were already showing excitement. They were requisitioned to serve with the army without any remuneration, and because they did not need to go into battle to kill the enemy, they had to work every day. Just barely eating half full.

Yesterday, they heard that Marshal Zhang from Xuan Town was going to build a camp at Changling Mountain. He not only ensured that everyone had enough food to eat, but also paid two cents of silver as wages every day. This really made them flock to it.

Although there are still some doubts in my heart, considering where they work, it is not the same. Even if Marshal Zhang from Xuanzhen deceives them, so what, at most it will be the same as before, after a hard day's work, half full, and nothing. What's the loss?

But when they arrived near the Changling Mountain camp, they saw groups of officers and soldiers already digging trenches. This shocked them. In the past, wherever officers and soldiers dug soil, they were not the only ones doing it, but the officers and soldiers were digging trenches. Are the soldiers just responsible for supervising the work?

Now, looking at the hills of steamed buns next to the big pot in the distance, the steaming pots of wheat porridge, and hearing that everyone is given big pancakes with broth at noon, everyone is full of energy.

They shouted their unique chants and started fucking again in full swing. Song Shanquan looked at the situation in front of him and was very satisfied. He estimated that in just a day or two, the Changling Mountain defense line would begin to take shape.

He looked at the sky and shouted loudly: "Everyone, please work harder. In half an hour, we will have dinner!"

…………

The big pancakes, bigger than bowls in the sea, were thick and soft, and the aroma of meat wafting out of the big pots made everyone scream, and many civilians, husbands, and soldiers had strings of crabs hanging from the corners of their mouths.

With their experience at breakfast, they are now much more disciplined. They still line up as a team to eat in their own order.

Each person gets a big pancake, a big bowl of broth, and some finely chopped pickles, mixed on the big pancake. If it's not enough, you can get a second one.

Now, they no longer doubted whether they really took care of this issue, and they fully believed that they could really get it a second time, so they did not gobble it up like they did at breakfast.

A young man with a strong body, holding half a piece of flatbread in his left hand, stretched out the big bowl in his right hand, poured a big ladle of hot broth, and immediately filled the big bowl.

The thick broth is full of the aroma of meat. Although each person can't share a few pieces of meat, it is enough to make everyone excited. For them, this is a meal that should only be eaten during the Chinese New Year!

Some greedy people, usually restless people, actually want to jump in line when they see the broth, and even steal other people's broth cakes secretly.

Of course, the Xuanbei Army could not allow such an incident. The Dushi Camp pacification sergeant responsible for maintaining order picked them out on the spot and beat them mercilessly with whips and military sticks until they cried and screamed. Mother, I kept begging for mercy.

The onlookers burst into laughter, and everyone looked at it with joy: In front of these wolf-like military masters, are you still trying to bully the weak? Not looking at the situation, you are really asking for trouble!

Amidst the laughter and laughter, the civilians, husbands, and soldiers gathered in one place, squatting or sitting directly on the ground, and started to devour the food.

Many of them sighed while eating. They never imagined that they could live such a good life like a fairy after following the army outside the mouth.

Chen Zheng also had a hasty lunch and watched silently from the side. Seeing that most of the people were already full, he waved his hand, and the chief officers, general officers, and scribes in the camp understood and stepped forward to shout: "Let's start work. Let’s start working. Work as soon as you’re full. I’ll still be paid after finishing work today.”

"Work...work..."

The team leaders and team mates selected from each team's civilian husband and army warriors also shouted loudly, and the civilian husband and army warriors were all satisfied after eating. They all stood up and started working with great enthusiasm.

Starting from the mountainside of Changling Mountain, the camp clerks have scattered white lines with lime according to the construction drawings. Each team of civilians and soldiers is strong, and the work is divided into sections. They only have to be responsible for the construction on their own section. .

These civilian men and military men have a lot of strength. Now that they can make a living and earn money with their strength, they are naturally more energetic.
