Chapter 279 Departure
As his body gradually recovered, in addition to daily rehabilitation exercises, Wang Dong, who had sorted out his thoughts, also officially began his teaching tasks.
He currently has only three students, namely Zhou Chongshan, Shi Lei and Wang Chuan.
All three of them held important positions and had to master the ability to read and write as quickly as possible.
For this purpose, Zhou Xu specially called Wang Chuan from Huangshan Village and asked him to study hard for a period of time before going back.
After all, in the future, he would definitely need Wang Dong to go back to Black Moon Village with him to work on papermaking and weaving. He would not come to the mountains again in the short term, so he had to teach him now while he could.
Unlike children, Zhou Chongshan and the other two, under Zhou Xu's orders, would strictly carry out the learning tasks arranged by Wang Dong, which also greatly improved their learning efficiency.
During this period, Zhou Chongshan and Shi Lei's intelligence, which reached a maximum of three stars, played a role to some extent. It can be clearly seen that Shi Lei learns the fastest, Zhou Chongshan is second, and Wang Chuan, who has a two-star panel, is the slowest.
Maintaining this arrangement, time passed quietly. Almost a month had passed since Wang Dong was summoned.
Compared to when he was just summoned, his body has basically said goodbye to the skin and bones state.
Even his bald head has now grown thick short hair.
In addition, his body functions were constantly recovering, and Wang Dong's rest times were significantly reduced during each new day of rehabilitation.
They set out after breakfast in the morning and arrived at the river about an hour earlier than usual.
Stretching hard, Wang Dong turned his head to look at Zhou Chongshan, whose whole spirit and energy were completely different from before.
"Lieutenant Zhou."
"Teacher Wang."
Hearing Wang Dong calling him, Zhou Chongshan turned his head calmly with a questioning look on his face.
Wang Dong smiled when he saw this.
"Today is the last day you will accompany me for rehabilitation. According to the leader's instructions, I will leave here tomorrow to take care of other things."
“…”
As he said this, Zhou Chongshan's expression was obviously stunned, and then he bowed deeply to Wang Dong.
During the time they spent together, Wang Dong asked him many questions and told him many things. He knew that bowing was a way to express respect and gratitude.
"Thank you for your teaching during this time."
He might have been a little paranoid before, but he was not a fool and naturally realized what had happened in the past month.
"After I leave, you must consolidate the words I taught you every day. You must write and memorize them more."
Wang Dong spoke his instructions calmly, and Zhou Chongshan listened calmly.
They are all his students. Compared with Shi Lei and Wang Chuan, Wang Dong has to admit that he has indeed invested more energy and time in Zhou Chongshan.
In his opinion, Zhou Chongshan was a student who caused him trouble.
Meanwhile, in the new village...
Thanks to the efforts of the construction team, this new village located deep in the mountains has finally been completed.
So far, the infrastructure has been completed and the soldiers can move in normally, but some functional facilities have not yet been completed.
However, Zhou Xu was already very satisfied with this efficiency. To make any further requests would be asking too much.
Because there was an iron mine nearby, Zhou Xu simply named the new village Tieshan Village.
It is used as a military base in the border area in the form of a village.
After dinner, Zhou Xu called Shi Lei and Zhou Chongshan to his tent.
"Winter is coming soon. Tomorrow morning, I plan to take Wang Dong back to Black Moon Village. After that, Shi Lei will be in charge of Tieshan Village. Chongshan, you will stay here as a fighting force, just in case."
"Shi Lei (Zhou Chongshan)! Obey your orders!"
Zhou Xu had thought of this arrangement a long time ago.
Last winter, something went wrong because there was only Shi Lei in charge and no strong generals were available, resulting in certain casualties.
If Zhou Chongshan was here at that time, Hongshi would definitely not be Zhou Chongshan's opponent. The outcome would have been very different.
This time, Zhou Xu naturally had to be more careful and keep Zhou Chongshan, the fighting force, here to ensure that Tieshan Village could spend this winter in peace.
"Besides that, I will take ten of the rattan armor soldiers with me, and the rest will stay here."
During this year, the Equipment Department produced another batch of rattan armor equipment. Now the number of rattan armor soldiers in their tribe has officially reached thirty!
Twenty of them are currently in Tieshan Village, and the remaining ten are in Caoyuan Village.
Zhou Xu said that those who were going to be taken away were all veterans from the earliest batch, who had rich combat experience and the strongest overall combat power.
In this way, no matter if something happens in Caoyuan Village or Tieshan Village, he can lead his troops to provide support in time, and will not face the embarrassing situation of being in the central government but having no troops to deploy.
The next morning, after breakfast, Zhou Xu and Wang Dong set out on time under the escort of ten rattan armor soldiers.
Wang Dong was tired on the way. In order not to affect the efficiency of movement, Zhou Xu directly signaled ten rattan armor soldiers to take turns carrying Wang Dong.
During the time they stayed here, weighted mountain cross-country training became a compulsory activity for them. Now that ten people took turns carrying Wang Dong, there was not much pressure.
After crossing mountains and rivers, the group finally arrived at Huangshan Village smoothly.
As soon as Wang Dong walked in, he was shocked by the scenery here.
Because when the new site of Huangshan Village was first built, all the debris in the area was cleared away, freeing up a fairly large area of open space, the scale of the new site is still quite impressive.
Outside the village is a large bamboo forest. Looking further into the distance, you can see a river. There are fields and chicken coops nearby.
The golden autumn sun shines down, creating a bucolic scene! This primitive life is beyond Wang Dong's expectations. This is probably not the bucolic life that many modern people dream of.
"Chief, are we there yet?"
Hearing this, Zhou Xu laughed.
"We have only arrived yet. It's still early. This is a deserted village. Let's rest here for one night and set off again tomorrow morning."
"Desolate Mountain Village..."
Wang Dong had undoubtedly heard this name from Zhou Chongshan. He originally thought it was a very desolate and dilapidated village.
Now, at first glance, how could it look dilapidated and desolate? "Chief, why is this village called Huangshan Village?"
“Oh, this.”
As he spoke, Zhou Xu pointed to the barren mountains in the distance.
"See that mountain? There is very little vegetation on it, especially on the outer side, which is connected to the desert. Large areas of the mountain are bare, so it is called a barren mountain."
"This village was originally located on that barren mountain, hence its name. It was moved here at the beginning of this year."
“…”
