The groups of civilians were directly divided into countless small teams by Wang Ziyun at this time.
They worked in groups of three, armed with axes and sharp blades, and chopped off the heads of the Huns on the ground one by one, and then loaded them into the cart next to them.
Everyone¡¯s faces were full of joy. The severed heads were finally gathered together, soaked in lime water next to them, and then fished out.
At this time, they don¡¯t care how horrible the Huns are. In their eyes, these are just copper coins.
After the harassment of the Huns, the civilians can now concentrate on building the city, and they are not so anxious about the construction of the city.
After all, only a few thousand Han troops need to be stationed. For soldiers, all unnecessary facilities such as houses can be dispensed with.
"Decided?"
On the city wall, looking at the busy civilians below the city, Liu Deng looked at Wang Chong with a smile.
After so many days of contact, Wang Chong finally decided to go to Dahan with Liu Deng to have a look. As for other things, we can only wait until later.
"It's decided. We have been trapped in the grassland for so many years. If nothing changes, I'm afraid these brothers will die of old age here together with me"
There was a trace of bitterness on Wang Chong's face. Liu Deng just smiled and did not continue to express his position. This result was already beyond his expectation.
It¡¯s good to be able to subdue Wang Chong, but if that doesn¡¯t work, letting him take care of the country in his old age is also a good choice.
"After so many years of herding cattle and sheep, I have stayed in this damn place for a long time. I don't know if I can do things like this after I go back"
Looking at the vast grassland in front of him, Wang Chong suddenly said half-jokingly.
"Why worry about this kind of thing? You will get used to it if you do it for two more days. Besides, with the military achievements you have achieved this time, I am afraid that even if you stay at home for the rest of your life, it will be enough for you to eat and drink without worrying about it!"
Liu Deng also smiled and said, "How can someone like Wang Chong go back to farming if he has spent too many days licking blood with his knife blade?"
¡°If that¡¯s the case, then I would like to thank you, Your Majesty!¡±
No matter what, this city can now be regarded as belonging to the Han Dynasty. Although Wang Chong rejected this good job, there are still countless people waiting for it.
For example, this kid Long Xiao is scratching his head and head anxiously now.
Although Liu Deng verbally stated that the mistakes he had made were so serious, he was still happy to see that one stroke in his credit book.
No matter what, it is very encouraging to say that he led the cavalry in and out of the Huns camp as if they were in a deserted area.
This new city always needs a defender. Although this city is small, no matter what, this is an opportunity to lead an army alone.
If you can stay here and practice here for three to five years, it is not impossible to return to the imperial court and become a governor for a term!
By that time, he can almost be truly called a general.
¡°Perhaps the title of a general is nothing to the children of wealthy families, but for a person like him who has no roots and no foundation, this step is already crucial.
The position of two thousand stones is a threshold. If you go up, you will be a middle-level member of the imperial court, and if you go down, you can only be regarded as a junior official at the grassroots level.
"Without military exploits and adventures, many people would spend their whole lives just groping for this position. Only after they die of old age, maybe the court will issue an order to comfort them.
¡°It¡¯s just that by that time, everyone is already dead, so what else is there to study about official positions?
"Get me Long Xiao!"
Seeing the sky slowly getting dark, Liu Deng suddenly said to Li Guang next to him.
Li Guang nodded, feeling a little happy for this kid. At this time, what else can the king do to him?
They all have to leave. This new city cannot use so many people. A maximum of eight thousand people is enough.
Leave him five thousand divine warriors and two thousand cavalry, and let him protect these civilians here and build the buildings in the city honestly.
After all the construction is completed, the civilian husband retreats, and he alone has the final say in the city.
Although this is just a military city, it is an excellent starting point. Even Li Guang, if he had not won the title of marquis in the first battle, would probably be working hard to win this position now.
"Long Xiao meets the king!"
Heard that when the king wanted to see him, Long Xiao was really overjoyed. Everyone knew that the king would withdraw his troops and return to the city tomorrow.
At this time, let yourself go. Isn't this just to give this city to yourself? This was a good job that he had been thinking about day and night.
Speaking of which, he really should thank Wang Chong. If Wang Chong hadn't rejected this good job, how could this job fall on him now?
When he thought of this, he really felt a little sorry for Wang Chong. He had promised Wang Chong at the beginning that he would take him to Xiuchun Tower after returning to Jinyang City, but now it seems that he has just returned. If I don't go, I'm afraid the appointment at Xiuchun Tower will have to be postponed.
"What do you think of this city?"
Looking at the last ray of sunset on the horizon, Liu Deng asked expressionlessly.
"Reporting to your Majesty, the location of this city is extremely important. We can advance, attack, retreat or defend. If we can advance a few dozen miles and build more than a dozen forts, we will be able to be connected with this city. The five hundred miles behind this city will completely belong to our Han Dynasty!"
These things can be regarded as repeating old tunes, and there is nothing new in the first place. Liu Deng just wanted to hear his thoughts.
What he said is certainly correct, but it is a bit too formal. However, after all, this small city is only three to five miles in size, and it is only a military city with no residents. Even if this kid Long Xiao has limited qualifications, , it is still considered a candidate at this time.
"It's better not to say this kind of thing again. Now that you've said it, it's up to you what to do next. I'll leave the cement kiln and the peasants to you. After the construction of the buildings in the city is completed, we will There will be a second batch of civilians to replace them. Continue to help you build the fortress! I will give you a time, three years. Within three years, if you can complete all the things you said, I will give you A certain general!"
Liu Deng would never do the kind of thing where he wants the horse to run well but also wants the horse not to eat grass. If you want others to contribute, you must give them enough benefits. The title of a partial general is enough to make Long Xiao crazy.
