Three Kingdoms: Shocked, my father-in-law is Cao Cao!

As soon as it was dawn, the second dog, the corporal chief, was woken up in advance by the centurion's familiar voice for an unknown number of times.

Without thinking too much, he kicked his subordinates again, and used the dog-style wake-up service to dispel their sleepiness.

There was a burst of logging outside the barracks, and some of the more unlucky soldiers had already started their day's work, and Ergou was no exception.

Without a spear, he took off his saber, and an ax can still be used freely.

The civil engineering skills honed from several battles in Qingzhou came in handy again.

When they first dug trenches in Linzi City, many soldiers were still complaining that they were here to fight, not to dig toilets for the army with the coolies.

It was not until they realized the great defensive power of field fortifications during the siege that these people changed their views.

Since then, this excellent skill has been retained, reducing a little queue training but adding some civil work.

It is said that every centurion in the army is required to be familiar with the construction method of the heavy wooden wall, and there is even a monthly assessment.

If the soldiers under the centurion are not up to standard, they will be punished the same as sloppy training.

—It’s not easy for these annoying centurions.

Ergou thought that he would never be able to be such a "high official" in his life, so he would never have to learn these things that he was not interested in.

As long as you wield a shovel and an axe and work hard, you can save your brain. The days are most suitable for ordinary people like me who are studying in prenatal education, so I don't have other ideas.

"Hurry up, haven't you guys eaten?"

The centurion who came to inspect again was quite dissatisfied with their progress. Seeing that the progress of the team next door was about to catch up, he felt very humiliated.

At least they were lucky. Some centurions couldn't get enough axes, so they could only cut half of them and then use people to break them off. The progress was even slower.

"General, is this really okay?"

Seeing the unheard-of so-called "civil engineering work" in front of him, Wu Lang, who had been through the battlefield for a long time, was also at a loss.

"Don't worry, I promise that soon those grassroots bandits on the mountain will learn what the gap is."

It's not that Wu Lang doesn't trust his generals, it's because he hasn't seen any army fighting like this in the past ten years since the war, maybe in the past, but he doesn't know.

Looking at the flying dust mixed with sawdust in front of him, Jiang Zhe couldn't help but think about which "barbarian" city the Romans far away in the sky were building blockhouses openly and aboveboard.

At the same time, at the foot of the cliff where Jiang Zhe had fought, another construction team was digging rammed earth in full swing.

Although this place has the name of "precipitous cliff", it has only the shape of a steep slope, otherwise Zheng Yi would not have jumped down from the flowers and plants.

Compared with this kind of terrain, it only needs to fill up the potholes with rammed earth, and then pile up a ramp to become the best offensive route for the army.

In order to guard against possible attacks down the slope, the cottage also needs to allocate soldiers who are always on guard against operations, which is tantamount to reducing the pressure that may arise on the frontal battlefield.

This "Roman" style of combat can only be implemented thanks to Jiang Zhe's specialized training for the army.

Unlike the Central Plains Dynasty, which needed to recruit large-scale troops to fight, the regular legions of the Romans were more inclined to professional long-term service.

The shortest is a few years, and the longest is more than ten years. If you hang up for the rest of your life, you will be thrown in the military camp.

With such ample time, these soldiers can receive a lot of training, including combat, marching and civil engineering work, so for them, carrying a bunch of bottles and cans and weapons and equipment with a load of [-] kg and walking [-] kilometers a day It is also commonplace.

So naturally it has the nickname "Mule".

Jiang Zhe would definitely not allow his soldiers to undergo such "inhumane" training. After all, most of them were half recruits who had served for less than a year and had only fought a few battles.

Although the heavy training was barely supported by the larger military expenditure, so that the soldiers could eat enough, it still couldn't be compared with the veterans who had served for many years.

Including tiger and leopard cavalry or Yuan Jun's "euphorbia warriors" who almost killed Jiang Zhe before.

In stark contrast to the hot mountain, the inside of the cottage is another scene.

"In order to thank all the heroes for their great help, the head of this village will do it first."

Everyone at the table toasted to each other, drank the dirty wine, and the rewarding banquet officially began.

"Boss owner, thanks to your resourcefulness this time, those Cao thieves at the bottom of the mountain have been talking hard."

"Where does this come from, as long as you are willing to preside over the fool's wedding, that is the greatest reward for the oldest body."

"That's natural. I will definitely gather all the strength of the village to organize a grand event for him."

It turned out that the old owner's surname was Zhou, and his son took his surname and added the word "one" to the list, thinking that he would tell his big disciple all the secrets when he died.

After drinking for three rounds, the village owner was a little tipsy, just thinking about holding the two beauties in his arms to go to the Spring Festival for a moment, but the servant beside him quietly approached his ear out of season.

"Is this true?"

"The villain saw it with his own eyes."

The stunned look was keenly noticed by the owner of the village who was drinking. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he walked quietly beside the owner of the village.

After a brief inquiry, the owner didn't tell him what happened, but just dragged him away from the banquet quietly.

"The tree fell!"

Shouts came to the ears of the two, and several ancient trees not far away fell down.

"These thieves are really endless." The owner of the boat owner spat viciously, staring at the soldiers working down the steep slope.

The trees between the steep slope and the forest line were cut down by the village owner in order to obtain a better view.

Taking advantage of the time of the predecessors, Jiang Zhe's army was able to go to work so quickly without having to cut down trees under the nose of the enemy.

"Zhou Zhuangzhu, in your opinion... what did Po Xia do?"

The old owner shook his head to express his ignorance, but added: "I have never seen such a weird siege for many years. I guess it was cut down trees to build baffles or something. As for the soil that was buried, it should be the waste left over from logging."

You can't count on the high military attainments of these knight-errant heroes who wield knives and guns every day and haven't read many books. Jiang Zhe's actions can be regarded as fooling them all.

The village master let out a long sigh of relief, "Since it's not a big deal, let's go on drinking and find another auspicious time to set up a table to celebrate Gao Tu's wedding."

Speaking of this, how can I think about the thousands of troops at the foot of the mountain, and I only sent some soldiers to serve as a warning and went to drink.

What they don't know is that the soldiers at the foot of the mountain are not making any "baffles", let alone cutting wood for heating.

An advanced camp is gradually taking shape under their noses, preparing for the two-sided attack in the near future.
