Chapter 19 Stability

"Lord, in this great victory, seventeen people were killed in the battle between our Macheng and thirty-eight injured people. According to the lord's instructions, the families of the deceased were polite and the injured were sent to the clinic. However, in this battle against the Wuwan people, the total number of people was only 600, but they defeated the three thousand Wuwan knights with slight damage. In the end, only 500 people returned alive, which was a great victory!"

The next morning, when the casualties were counted, Qiu Chi was still a little disbelief, saying that he had dispatched 600 people, but in fact, the only ones who actually killed the enemy were the more than 180 confidants brought by Ye Zhao. The remaining 400 were those who raised shields and blocked arrows, and almost all the casualties were these people. The people under Ye Zhao's command were completely unscathed except for the continuous pulling of the bow and losing their strength.

"Tell me about the harvest." Ye Zhao waved his hand. Ding Li had reported the casualties to himself yesterday. What he wants to know more about now is the harvest of yesterday's battle.

"Yes." Qiu Chi didn't dare to have any thoughts when facing Ye Zhao at this moment, and hurriedly said, "There are more than 300 intact war horses. The others were either taken away by the Wuwan people, shot to death or broken horse hooves. According to the lord's instructions, he summoned many butchers to make overnight, and got more than 12,000 kilograms of meat."

"No?" After glaring for a while, seeing that Qiu Chi didn't say anything, Ye Zhao turned his head to look at him.

"Uh...no." Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao in confusion, thinking carefully about what else was wrong.

"Where are those weapons of the Wuwan people? Where are the horse leather?" Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi.

"Ma Ge should still be Tudang's side. As for weapons..." Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao hesitantly: "The weapons of Wuhuan people are rough, far less than those of my great man's well-equipped. What's the use of them?"

"What's the use?" Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi with some distress: "In other words, you didn't get it back?"

"No." Qiu Chi was a little numb by Ye Zhao's eyes, and could only say with a thorn in his mouth: "Lord, what are the uses of those things?"

"Returning back the furnace and rebuild it, it is better to treat it as an iron ingot than to throw it away directly. Besides, we don't need these equipment, but I don't know how many tribes on this grassland are willing to stock up and find sellers. At least you can get a few cows and sheep for me. What's the use?" Ye Zhao rubbed his temples: "We have to live a life. There are so many people in the city that need to support them and recruit soldiers. They are all as generous and generous as Brother Qiu. I am afraid that I, the lord of Macheng, will starve to death soon. By the way, how did you do the business of the Roman City for Prefect Guo before, so how did you not lose money?"

"Lord, I'll forgive you, so I'll order someone to find you." Qiu Chi said hurriedly.

"Forget it, I'm afraid I can't find it anymore. You sent someone to protect the Wuhuan lieutenant's headquarters to collect equipment with my seal. The court also agreed to me a batch of equipment and asked them to send it as soon as possible. In addition, I posted a conscription list in each county. I also took the position of cavalry commander. The court asked me to recruit troops by myself. It would be not enough to rely on Macheng alone." Ye Zhao waved his hand and said.

"Here!" Qiu Chi bowed his hand and saw that Ye Zhao had no other instructions, so he went down to do things. In addition to arranging people to post the charter and transporting equipment to protect the Wuhuan School Command, the most important thing is to draft a memorial.

This time, Ye Zhao defeated the three thousand Wuwan soldiers with 600 people. This was a great contribution. It not only shocked the government and the people, but it could also make Ye Zhao famous. At least it could make many people who doubt Ye Zhao's ability shut up. If they want to be promoted in the future, they would naturally have something to say. If Ye Zhao could go further, he could officially enter the official career.

Qiu Chi was writing hard here, but Ye Zhao was walking around the city with Guan Hai, Ding Li, Meng Hu and Gao Sheng. Yesterday, a big victory quickly stabilized Ye Zhao's position in Macheng, and the street market became prosperous and lively again. This is one of the hub cities between Hu and Han. Those who are not aware of the traders will come to say hello and make a living.

For a long time in the future, he will be the master of Ma City. Ye Zhao is familiar with this feeling, but for Ding Li and the other two, it is the first time they are. They straightened their waists straight and looked quite majestic with their majestic body.

"This city wall needs to be repaired." A group of five people walked to the edge of the city wall. Looking at the city wall that was missing a large gap, Ye Zhao shook his head. Yesterday's victory was Aguli underestimating the enemy and making a rash move. Everything about him was exposed to Ye Zhao's eyes. However, he knew nothing about Ye Zhao, so he was ambushed by Ye Zhao halfway, and not only was he damaged his soldiers and generals, but he even lost his life. But Ye Zhao did not think that the entire grassland was such a brainless person. In fact, there was no shortage of combat talents on the grassland from ancient times to the present. In fact, if Aguli did not blatantly write hatred on his face, if the three thousand Wuhuan cavalry were suddenly attacked yesterday, Ye Zhao could not stop it.

This is also the reason why Ye Zhao decided to deal with Aguli. After all, sleeping on the side of the bed, no one would feel good about a ferocious beast that could cause him to hurt him at any time. It would be better to provoke him to attack in advance and plot against him. Now that the threat is temporarily removed, it is time to consider the defense of Macheng's political system. He cannot put his hopes on his opponent's incompetence every time. He must have enough deterrent power in his hands.

"Lord, although this city wall is not high, it is not easy to repair it." Meng Hu stayed in Macheng for the longest time and was familiar with many things. He said worriedly when he heard this.

"Oh? How is it not easy?" Ye Zhao turned his head and looked at Meng Hu, in confusion.

"If this city wall is just rammed earth, it would not be difficult, but the soil in the Macheng area is soft and not suitable for compaction. Even if it is barely built, it will easily collapse. However, if it is to use bricks and stones, not only will it be fired, but also the masons need to make mud for cultivation. Even if the city wall of Macheng is not big, it will not be completed this year, and the cost is not high." Meng Hu smiled bitterly. When Aguli wanted to demolish the city wall, he was unwilling to do so. Unfortunately, Aguli was powerful at that time, and Qiu Chi didn't ask about it. He could not turn the situation around alone and could only compromise.

"No matter how difficult it is, it must be built. This is the level that the Hu people went south. As for the others, start doing it first, and then find a way. You recruit some labor. I brought a lot of bricklayers to burn out the bricks and stones needed to build the city. As for the others, I will find a way." Ye Zhao shook his head. In addition to military strength, a strong pass is also one of the indispensable deterrent conditions. He brought so many craftsmen to strengthen defense. Now it seems that strengthening is no longer necessary, and he has to be remade directly.

“High rise.”

"I'm here." Gao Sheng hurriedly stepped forward two steps.

"After a while, I will gather the carpenters, bricklayers and blacksmiths I brought to you to make a few things, which may speed up the efficiency of building a city." Ye Zhao thought about it, and he had some ideas. The base in the end of the world was also from scratch. He almost watched the base develop from the Stone Age to the high-tech era. Unfortunately, unlike the previous life, there are not so many high-tech talents. However, he could design some simple cranes, but he didn't know if these carpenters could make them.

"Here!" Gao Sheng has now basically become a person who runs errands around Ye Zhao. His family knows his family affairs and is brave and can't compare with Guan Hai and Ding Li. He is even worse than Meng Hu's courage to fight and fight. He doesn't know a lot of words, so he naturally can't use his copywriting. He stays with Ye Zhao's side to run errands. Although his status is not high, he is still considered a confidant.

"Lord, Aguli has just been defeated by his lord. The Wuwan tribe is afraid that he will not dare to make any abnormal movements in a short period of time. Why should he be so anxious?" Guan Hai said in confusion.

"Then the diwali is not a kind person, not to mention that there is more than one tribe on this grassland. To establish a foothold in this Macheng, we must have the power to prevent these people from coming. Otherwise, if we can defeat Wuhuan today, we may not be able to defeat Xianbei tomorrow. By the way, Ding Li." Ye Zhao suddenly remembered something and turned his head to look at Ding Li.

"Yes." Ding Li took two steps forward and followed Ye Zhao.

"The four hundred brave men have been on the battlefield before, but now we are short of soldiers, so we are just here to train. You can train the basic training. Do you know how to train?" Ye Zhao asked.

"I know." As soon as he heard about the training, Ding Li couldn't help but sweat out from his forehead. Although Ye Zhao's training method was effective, the process was really unbearable to look back.

"The horse meat I just got is used as military rations. I will find some more food. During the training period, the supply of meat cannot be stopped. Only by being able to eat meat can I kill people!" Ye Zhao said with a smile.
