"Hey you!"

"Hey you!"

"rise!"

Opposite Caoqiao Pass, on the bank of Danshui River, the civilian men, auxiliary soldiers, and technical personnel of the engineering battalion of the Han army were shouting slogans continuously.

The logs cut down from the surrounding areas were briefly processed and then transported to the waterside, where they began to build structures along the waterside.

Not only does it extend to both sides, it also extends to the water surface.

Not far from the shore, several stone cannons have begun to take shape.

Obviously, Feng Duhu did not want to let the soldiers directly cross the Danshui.

Instead, I plan to try the big man's stone cannon for long-range strikes first.

As for whether it can destroy Guancheng and Wubao of the Wei army on the other side - no one knows until they try it.

But there is nothing wrong with giving it a try.

As long as the opponent's defensive strength can be weakened as much as possible, the casualties of the soldiers can be reduced when the army is forced to cross.

Today's Han Dynasty is no longer the Shu Kingdom that had no room for error.

Instead, he grew into Ji Han, who was feared even by Wei State and had the possibility of unifying the world.

Facing the dangerous Caoqiao Pass, the commander-in-chief was Guanqiu Jian, so there was basically no room for any clever tactics.

Feng Duhu only needed to set up his military formation in a dignified manner and attack according to his squad.

He believed that as long as Lu Xun really wanted to capture Xiangyang, Guanqiu Jian would sooner or later fall into a difficult situation.

By then, both Lu Xun and Guan Qiujian would definitely be more anxious than themselves, and much more anxious.

Devour

Lu Xun surrounded Xiangyang, and Guanqiu Jian was worried that Xiangyang would be captured.

Lu Xun captured Xiangyang, and Guanqiu Jian wanted to find a way to deploy a defensive line along the Han River.

Seeing that everything was going on in an orderly manner, Feng Duhu felt very relaxed and even yawned.

The sun in May has become a bit fierce.

Especially around noon, I always want to take a nap.

Meng Yan, on the other hand, felt a little worried when he saw Feng Duhu carrying out such large-scale construction projects, and hesitantly walked to the pavilion erected for Feng Duhu:

"Zhongdu Protector, although the elixir water is in urgent need, wouldn't it be inappropriate to mobilize troops and mobilize people like this?"

The big sun was hanging in the sky, and Feng Duhu was half-lying under the arbor, dozing with half-squinted eyes and a fishing rod in his hand.

It seems like sleeping but not sleeping, like fishing but not fishing.

The posture is appropriate and feels comfortable.

As a qualified fishing veteran, when you have nothing to do, there is a river in front of you. If you don’t fish, how can you catch fish?

Of course, if you have the conditions, it is not impossible to fish and catch fish.

After being disturbed by Meng Yan, Feng Duhu opened his eyes, glanced at the busy construction site in the distance, and said curiously:

"What's wrong? Isn't this a good job?"

The engineering battalion is also a technical branch after all.

Under their guidance, efficiency has become much higher.

Meeting Feng Duhu's confused gaze, Meng Yan quickly explained:

"The Central Protector has misunderstood. What the general means is, is the fee too high?"

Those who knew that they were crossing Danshui, but those who didn’t know, seeing this posture, thought they were crossing a large river.

Since Meng Yan led the army, he has always followed the prime minister.

Who is the Prime Minister?

People who wish they could break one penny into five pieces.

Even if the big man got rich later, the prime minister's picky temper could not be changed - he was afraid of poverty.

Although it is true that money will be spent where it should be spent, but where it can be saved, one more copper coin will certainly not be wasted.

Just like this time, if the prime minister were replaced, it would probably be like the confrontation between Wugong and Shui. The two sides would frequently communicate with each other to see if they could find opportunities and find a breakthrough.

The special time is on the Han side. Even if the defense on the other side is tight, it is estimated that the Prime Minister can always be patient and wait quietly.

Wait until the Wei thief reveals his flaws, and then forcefully defeat the thief in one fell swoop.

Work hard and mobilize people to carry out large-scale construction?

nonexistent.

What a waste of money and food?

Like the extremely high chariot, every day there are soldiers hoisting telescopes, charcoal pens, notebooks and other things up and down, shouting incomprehensible terms from time to time.

There is also the stone cannon. One look at it and you can tell that it is going to hit the other side.

But I don't know what the Central Protector's plan is. Those stone cannons come in two sizes: one large and one small.

The smaller one seems to have some changes compared to before.

Meng Yan didn't know why Feng Duhu did this - just make them all bigger, wouldn't they be more powerful?

And those wooden shelves that continue to extend along the shore...

In Meng Yan's eyes, he felt that building a city here might not be enough.

The prime minister's tomb is on the mountain behind Wuguan!

In Nanzhong, everyone calls the Prime Minister Grandpa.

Meng Yan, who was born in Nanjing Middle School, suddenly couldn't sit still when he thought that his grandfather was staring at him from behind:

No, you have to ask clearly, otherwise you will feel unsure.

After all, I have never fought such a wealthy battle in my life.

Feng Duhu yawned again, which made Meng Yan want to open his mouth to follow him.

After yawning, Feng Duhu pointed to Maza next to him: "Sit down first."

"Thank you, the Central Protector."

"This hot day, I don't care about anything, I just let you run around. I should be the one to say thank you."

Hearing Feng Duhu's words, Meng Yan felt a little embarrassed:

"Zhongdu's words of defense are serious, and his words are serious. These are what the general should do."

After all, Jufu had been with Feng Duhu, so he knew Feng Duhu's temperament, and he would do whatever Zhongduhu arranged.

Meng Yan is different.

Although he also worked with Feng Duhu, firstly, he did not work together in the army, and secondly, he was not a superior or subordinate. The situation was very different.

What's more important is that the prime minister whom Meng Yan followed in the early years liked to ask questions about military affairs, no matter how big or small.

Unlike now, the delegation of power by the Central Protector means almost everything in the military has been let go.

As for supervision, inspection, and other matters in the military, they are basically the responsibility of the staff group.

Feng Duhu doesn't care about the process, only the results.

He will only come forward unless there is something major or something that no one can decide.

However, everything in the army is arranged in an orderly manner.

Sometimes Meng Yan also wonders, if the prime minister had been like this at first and didn't have to work so hard, would he have been able to live longer?

Feng Duhu, on the other hand, laughed when he heard Meng Yan's self-effacing words:

"What should be done? This is inappropriate. In fact, I am lazy."

"There are some things that I should be keeping an eye on myself, but I'm too lazy to do anything and just keep watching the fish float, so I let you do it."

Feng Duhu said mockingly:

"If the Prime Minister were here and saw me looking so tired, I'm afraid he would whip me with a whip."

There was a bit of sadness in his tone.

It was as if the prime minister was calling him to come forward and show him a treasure. The scene was still before his eyes.

Feng Duhu dared to say this, but Meng Yan did not dare to accept it.

He just laughed dryly.

Feeling that there was some embarrassment between the two of them, Feng Duhu looked at Meng Yan who was sitting next to him. He seemed a little reluctant to let go, so he said no more.

Getting back to the topic, he pointed to the wooden shelves by the water and asked:
To be continued...
