Chapter 28 An ordinary day
When Yang Song stepped off the general platform, Lu Su behind him stepped forward and said: "The lord is a hero with true temperament. You must be the lord, sacrifice your life for the territory, and do your duty to repay the kindness of the king!"
"
"As you command!~"
Lu Su is wiping the butt of this overlord!
Walking back the same way, on the way.
Yang Song wandered on the deserted street: "Zijing, did I say the wrong thing just now?"
"No, how could the lord say the wrong thing!" Lu Su replied seriously.
"You still said no, aren't you saying that I was wrong in both words? Hahaha! But it doesn't matter, I won't blame you." Yang Song laughed and said that he was not so stingy.
"Zijing, you know, before you came, the security of the territory was very limited. There were only a thousand soldiers, and the militiamen could only serve as logistics and transportation. If there were no enemies around, I don't know what to do.
Got it!" Yang Song said.
"Fortunately, you are here. You are still such an elite force. Not to say that you are not aggressive enough, at least you are strong enough to protect yourself! You see, I was a little excited today and drank some wine in the evening. Now I have revealed my true colors! I don't know the soldiers.
How will they view me as a lord!"
"I see, the lord is worried that what you just said will make the soldiers look down on you. This is really over-the-top. Don't worry, lord! The soldiers will support you!" Lu Su said with certainty!
"Then I'm really relieved!" That's what he said, but only time will verify the actual situation!
Back at the mansion, the banquet was still going on, but there was less drinking and more chatting. This was also waiting for him, the lord, to come back. Otherwise, they would all be drunk. It would not be embarrassing when the lord comes back to see it!
"Everyone, keep drinking. What are you doing standing still? Don't just talk but don't take action!" Yang Song looked at the officials and almost lost interest.
"Didn't I agree that I won't come back until I'm drunk? Haha, come on, let me toast you all!"
…
It has to be said that this was the first time in a long time that Yang Song was so happy that he didn't wake up until almost noon the next day. He didn't even remember how he finally got back to the bedroom last night.
"Hey, alcoholism is really harmful to people, ah! My head hurts so much, it seems like it's about to burst!" Yang Song half-sat on the bed, holding his forehead, looking at the curtain on the top of the bed and groaning in pain!
Bang bang~
Zhiqua~
After two gentle knocks on the door, a push was heard.
"Well, my lord!" Two crisp and gentle girls stood in front of the bed to greet him. Aren't these just his two gentle and lovely maids!
After getting up and changing clothes under the service of two beauties, and drinking sobering soup, I instantly felt sober and my head felt lighter.
I don’t know if it’s because the hangover soup has a good effect or because I saw the beauty!
He went downstairs to have a light lunch and flirted with his two maids. After they blushed till they bled from shyness, they laughed twice and went back to the study upstairs to handle their daily affairs.
There were not many government affairs, just some reports and material distribution plans that required his signature and seal. After handling them in two or three times, he then sent out a few more names!
The first order was given to the county magistrate Yang Zhong. In addition to doing good government affairs, he was ordered to prepare materials and craftsmen. After discovering the passage, he should transport the materials to the target as soon as possible and build the checkpoint!
Most of the materials are cement, and other materials are construction equipment, living supplies for craftsmen, etc. The bricks and stones for building levels can be collected on site or nearby.
An order was issued to Li Hui of the Military Industry Bureau, asking him to imitate the weapons and equipment of the infantry brigade. Not only should they be able to manufacture them immediately, but they should at least be able to maintain the existing weapons and equipment!
An order was issued to Zhou Wu, the commander of the cavalry, asking him to send more troops to explore the north and strive to discover the location of the passage as soon as possible.
Zhou Wu's cavalry has been responsible for exploring the territory and is very familiar with the surrounding environment, which can reduce the time of discovering passages.
The last order was sent to Yang Ren of the Hou Bao Bureau, asking him to make statistics on the consumption of the newly arrived troops and military supplies such as military rations, uniforms, ammunition, etc., and make a plan and budget!
This is a very important point. If the territory cannot know the specific consumption and the logistics cannot keep up, no matter how brave the warrior is, he will be brought down!
After finishing these tasks, several hours have passed!
After walking around the small garden in the backyard and stretching out a bit, I got on my horse and headed to the military camp.
Horseback riding trots along the bridleway in the middle of the street. Next to it is the carriageway, and beyond that is the sidewalk.
Because it is daytime, there are more people on the street, so I don’t dare to go too fast even on the street, but it is much faster than walking on the messy and mixed streets.
Yang Song rode on his horse and looked at the few guards who were guarding him behind him. He looked at the bustling streets, the numerous pedestrians, and the horse-drawn carriages passing by from time to time. He was very satisfied with the orderly picture of life.
After a while, Yang Song and his party arrived at the military camp and walked into the entrance of the military camp where even he had to check his ID before being let in.
He came to the military camp today not only to see what the soldiers thought of him after his speech last night, but also to ask the infantry brigade to prepare for departure. Once the passage is discovered, go immediately! Be prepared to fight!
Once this channel to the outside world is opened, it will not only connect the territory with the outside world, but may also be discovered by outside humans first. As a result, the territory will lose the opportunity and geographical advantage!
After giving instructions to Di Qing and Lu Su, today's main task is completed! And there is a moderate harvest from this visit.
The rest of the time, he can relax.
Because the people in the territory make full use of their talents and the system is complete, he, the lord, has a lot less to do, so even at such a critical moment, he can have leisure time. He will not forget to sleep and eat like the wise emperors of ancient China.
Yang Song recalled that he had heard that Qin Shihuang had stipulated that he must deal with government affairs of a fixed weight of bamboo slips every day before going to rest.
I also heard that Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had to personally handle even small matters such as a maid stealing a few taels of silver from the palace.
Although this is a sign of wisdom, he believes that this is just an imperfect system that cannot carry out a specific division of labor and make the best use of everyone's talents!
Also, the emperor was reluctant to delegate power, so he had no choice but to do it himself!
Isn't this a joke? Leaders must do what they should do, and subordinates should do what they should do. So what do you need so many subordinates for? Just to hear them shout "Long Live" from below every morning?
…
Yang Song was thinking wildly while riding his horse back.
Returning to the mansion, I sat leisurely in the pavilion in the backyard, drinking good tea and reading a book. There were not many entertainment activities during this period.
The tea is grown in the territory itself, on a high mountain in the north. The yield is not much, basically enough to be divided among a few dignitaries in the territory.
Chapter completed!
