Yuna's following undoubtedly made Zhou Yunfei's depression disappear immediately. The preparations for returning were quickly completed, and the vast escort also ensured the safety of Zhou Yunfei and his party to the greatest extent.
Yuna even wanted to mobilize the 30,000 garrison troops in Clare City to follow her. Fortunately, Zhou Yunfei refused, because the two thousand cavalry sent from Dragon City had already arrived in Clare City. Zhuge Liang knew that Zhou Yunfei would definitely leave Clare before Zhang Liao's army returned.
city, so he submitted a request to the Ministry of Defense, and then immediately set off with a cavalry team of two thousand people.
Together with the five hundred original guards around Zhou Yunfei, it is more than enough.
When leaving Clare City, Prinz watched the team leave from a distance, "An era is beginning, but I only hope that Yuna can be happy." This was his whisper. As a former leader, Prinz
Although Linz has made mistakes of one kind or another, it does not prevent him from looking at Zhou Yunfei.
Zhou Yunfei has not come into contact with many people. In the eyes of the outside world, the young earl of Longcheng is mysterious and makes people think of him. But only those who have come into contact with him will know that Zhou Yunfei's success is not accidental.
Zhou Yunfei's unique temperament can easily attract others. It is natural and equal! Everyone who interacts with Zhou Yunfei will unconsciously get closer to him. This is true for the eldest prince, the third prince, and even many others.
The same is true for ordinary people when they are unaware!
Perhaps this is also a different kind of leadership temperament. Prinz is very satisfied with his son-in-law, who is no more than ten years old.
Construction is in full swing at the south gate of Dragon City.
A large number of people were recruited, and encouraged by generous gold coins, they were divided into several teams to work day and night.
Although it was a bit hard work, when they heard that this thing was used to welcome the army returning from the Southern Expedition, they immediately gathered their energy and worked quickly.
Zhuge Liang took the time to check the construction site several times, but he was also confused about the project. He shook his head and chatted with Lu Su beside him.
"Zijing, the first quarter of this year's grain harvest has been finished. How much grain has your commerce department purchased?" Although Longcheng is completely self-sufficient, there is even a surplus of high-quality refined grains that can be sold to the outside world.
But because Zhou Yunfei was not accurate, he kept exchanging funds for food from outside.
Zhuge Liang didn't know whether to say yes or no to this move. Dragon City's current tax revenue all relies on developed commerce, but there are many places to spend money. Although buying food now will not cause too much of a burden, it can
You can't always buy like this. The grain reserve base established by Longcheng is basically almost full. In addition, the grain used for the 100,000-strong army this time is nothing compared to the total amount.
Lu Su smiled bitterly after hearing this, "In the past six months, we have bought nearly three million tons of grain from all over the mainland, which is enough. But my lord still insists that even if I buy less, I have to buy it."
It seems that Lu Su, like Zhuge Liang, is very puzzled by Zhou Yunfei's insistence on buying grain. But who calls Zhou Yunfei the lord? Fortunately, this long-term purchase does not require a sudden drain on the finances, so it doesn't matter. Just treat it as such.
It's my lord's hobby. Anyway, the accumulation of so much food has promoted the food in Dragon City. All kinds of delicious food have been created, which makes everyone smile bitterly.
The two of them were chatting about some trivial matters in Dragon City while looking at the busy construction site in front of them.
A huge building has almost been built, all made of marble. Although it has not yet undergone final polishing, a closer look can already make people feel the overwhelming momentum.
"Brother Kong Ming, do you know what this is?" This was the first time Lu Su saw such a big building. After taking a closer look, he felt that it didn't look like a residential building. So he asked Zhuge Liang, who was in charge of Dragon City.
"Ahem, this has its uses, but the time has not come yet, so I can't reveal it." After a moment of embarrassment, Zhuge Liang laughed.
Lu Su was stunned for a moment, then laughed and pointed at Zhuge Liang. This was the first time he saw something Zhuge Liang didn't know.
Cui Yan, who was giving instructions at the construction site, saw Zhuge Liang and Lu Su arriving. After giving a few instructions to the people around him, he walked towards them.
Zhuge and Lusu looked at each other and smiled when they saw Cui Yan coming over with a disgraced face.
"Ji Gui (Cui Yan's nickname), you haven't slept for a few days, haven't you?" Lu Su asked after seeing Cui Yan's appearance and the obvious dark circles on his face.
Cui Yan nodded, "Yes, we worked all night after receiving the order. We just finished building the main body today. Thanks to the tools of the Engineering Academy." Cui Yan pointed to the large gear machinery in the distance.
They were all large machines brought from the Engineering Academy. It was with these things that they were able to pile up so many large pieces of marble in a short period of time.
Zhuge Liang also likes to make gadgets in his spare time, especially engineering equipment, so when he saw these things, he started to admire them.
"My lord is truly a god. When these objects are combined, the effect produced is far greater than the limit of human power." Zhuge Liang looked at these instruments and sighed at Zhou Yunfei's vast knowledge.
In fact, Zhou Yunfei is not as amazing as Zhuge Liang said. When he first established the Engineering College, Zhou Yunfei proposed some simple physics knowledge. Among them, including the lever principle and gear combination. These two were originally designed to cooperate with giant engineering vehicles.
It was prepared, but later it was discovered that it can be involved in various industries. That's why Zhou Yunfei established a new engineering college outside the factory to specialize in this kind of things.
Nowadays, Longcheng's academics are very developed. There are schools specializing in the study and promotion of Chinese culture, the Chinese Academy. There are also schools with various professional knowledge, the Technical College. The Engineering College is just a branch of the Technical College.
Coupled with the Naval Academy in Longgang and the Military Academy in Longcheng, a large number of academic talents graduate every year, filling the talent gap that Longcheng is short of.
"By the way, Ji Gui, do you know what this thing is used for?" Lu Su asked his question, hoping to learn the purpose of this huge building from Cui Yan, the project commander.
Unexpectedly, Cui Yan didn't understand very well. He just said that this thing was an order from Zhou Yunfei. Judging from the shape, it looked like a huge door frame.
The three of them speculated for a long time, but they didn't know what it was called. There was no record of this type of building in previous history books.
"Perhaps, it is used to welcome the southern expedition army." Zhuge Liang expressed his guess. After the three of them got to know each other, they felt that this should be the case.
It takes less than ten days to depart from Clare City and arrive at Dragon City. This is based on the slow speed of Zhou Yunfei and his party. Under normal circumstances, it only takes this little time to go back and forth between the two places.
Yuna's following made Zhou Yunfei feel very good. Since his body recovered, Zhou Yunfei started practicing martial arts every day again, which has become his morning exercise every morning.
As the morning sun rose, Zhou Yunfei drew sword flowers from the sword in his hand freely.
In the assassination half a year ago, it was precisely because of Zhou Yunfei's own martial arts that he persisted for a long time. Otherwise, if Zhou Yunfei had just arrived in Ross Continent, he wouldn't even need so many people. Just one person and one knife could kill him.
Therefore, Zhou Yunfei was very lucky to have learned martial arts.
After practicing a set of sword skills, Zhou Yunfei took a deep breath of the fresh air of the morning sun. Diao Chan walked to him holding a hot towel and carefully wiped away the sweat from Zhou Yunfei's forehead. In the distance, two silent people
The person is patrolling around.
As the first bodyguard around Zhou Yunfei, Gao Shun has always been the one who does more but doesn't talk much. This time, Zhou Tai, who is following him, is also a guy who doesn't open his mouth. This makes Li Tong, another normal person, very helpless. The three of them
When handing over the guards, they always just nodded to each other. Even Li Tong felt as if he was mute. Fortunately, the new Euphorbia warriors were not as cold as the soldiers trapped in the battle. In his spare time, Li Tong liked to run to
A gag in Euphorbia.
As the new escort team around Zhou Yunfei, the Euphorbia warriors are all elites selected from a million, and they fell in love with the trapped camp when they first arrived. Due to the inability to protect Zhou Yunfei at the beginning, Gao Shun Dianwei and many others from the trapped camp were also included.
The soldiers cursed. Even after the expedition, when the General Staff evaluated meritorious service, Dian Wei's meritorious service was the lowest! There was only one medal of bravery, and it belonged to the 1st Cavalry Division! It can be seen that the accident made the people of Longcheng...
How angry.
Because of this incident, Gao Shun's military rank was reduced by two ranks to the rank of major. And the entire trapped camp was reduced to private!
This is a shame, a shame for all Zhou Yunfei's guards.
The soldiers who died in that battle are additionally regarded as martyrs and all enjoy the pension system. But those who are alive must live with shame!
Although Zhou Yunfei also felt that this was a bit excessive, he did not object. Because if the system he established was broken at will, it would not be of any benefit to the future.
Zhou Yunfei was thinking about when to let Gao Shun lead him to the front line and use his military exploits to wash away the shame. However, this matter will depend on the future situation. For the time being, Zhou Yunfei will no longer have the idea of using force. Development is the current priority.
things to do.
The group of people advanced slowly towards Dragon City, while Zhang Liao, who had finished resting in Lille City, also led the army returning from the expedition towards Dragon City in the north.
When Zhou Yunfei saw the wide surface of the Hengduan River from a distance, he set foot on the land of Longcheng after half a year.
Seth City became a place of celebration. Many people put up lanterns and colorful decorations to welcome Zhou Yunfei's return. Looking at the two farewell crowds, Zhou Yunfei felt very satisfied. It was an indescribable emotion, a responsibility and a kind of kindness.
Sense of achievement.
Fearing an accident, Gao Shun immediately mobilized the newly formed 52nd Army stationed in Sais City and sealed both sides of the road tightly to ensure Zhou Yunfei's safety.
After crossing the Hengduan River, the team arrived at Dragon City within half a day.
The huge stone building outside the South City Gate makes people dizzy.
Yuna was stunned by the huge building that was thirty meters high. Such a huge building, and it was all made of marble, was considered a miracle.
Looking at the building in front of him, Zhou Yunfei proudly opened his arms, and then said to the people behind him: "This! It's called the Arc de Triomphe!"
