Chapter 343: I was afraid of being embarrassed, so I didn’t dare to ask
A blizzard swept across the grassland, and as villages close to the grassland area, Black Moon Village and Salt Lake Village were undoubtedly also affected. The snow might be relatively weaker, but it was no longer a suitable day to go out.
Taking advantage of this snowstorm, Zhou Xu simply asked everyone who needed to learn to read to go to Wang Dong's cram school.
They were idle anyway, and it was boring to eat and sleep every day, so they just asked Wang Dong to teach them how to read.
It used to be said that it is best to learn a language when you are young, because you will have better learning ability and learn faster.
But in Zhou Xu's opinion, this was not the case.
To put it bluntly, the reason why adults cannot learn is that they don’t want to learn deep down and are rejecting it, or the pressure is not enough.
If you throw this person into a place where everyone speaks a foreign language, he will not be able to survive if he doesn't learn it. Then you will know whether he can learn it or not.
Not only did the subordinates not resist their leader's arrangements, they were all very active in doing so, so it was impossible for their learning efficiency to be bad.
During this period, Zhou Xu himself was living in Black Moon Village, methodically training his mantra power.
In these peaceful days when there is nothing else to do, it is most appropriate to train your mantra power intensively.
Anyway, when he has almost consumed all the energy, he will go to sleep and rest. When he has almost recovered, he will start exercising again. For Zhou Xu himself, he does not find the whole process boring at all.
Essentially, he really enjoys the process of improving his strength bit by bit, which is also reflected in his development strategy of slowly growing crops.
At the same time, the recruits who had followed Zhou Xu's orders and left the recruit training camp early the next morning and headed towards Tieshan Village were lucky enough to avoid the snowstorm.
However, it is still very cold, especially after nightfall, when the temperature in the Gobi region basically drops below zero degrees.
Fortunately, we have basically all the warm clothes we need this year.
The combination of linen and fur clothes makes the condition much better than before.
Riding on an ox cart, the twenty recruits quickly crossed the Gobi area and arrived at the post station at the foot of the barren mountain.
Looking up at the bare mountain outside the barren mountain, as one of the new recruits, Hongshi couldn't help but sigh.
To be honest, he didn't expect that he would be able to come back here again.
We didn't wait too long at this post station. Although Huangshan Village had moved to the other side, the original location of the village was not abandoned. Instead, it was converted into an outpost with garrisons.
Before they set out, a messenger had already delivered the news in advance.
Estimating the time, the outpost quickly sent someone down to take them up the mountain.
This guide is still necessary.
At this stage, they do not have enough manpower and resources to build mountain roads. Except for some individual staff members who often need to travel between mountains and plains for work reasons, other people do not come here at all.
Having an experienced guide who can take them up the mountain along the appropriate route can greatly reduce the risk of accidents.
"Okay, assemble and get ready to go up the mountain!"
At the post station at the foot of the mountain, Hongshi shouted and waved, signaling the resting soldiers to get up.
After a period of training, with his outstanding performance, he has now successfully become the squadron leader, and this batch of new recruits are under his charge.
Although I haven't climbed a mountain road for a long time, the performance of redstone is not bad at all.
You know, among these twenty new recruits, many were recruited from the mountains. Before being recruited, they had been mountain people for more than ten or twenty years.
The skill of "mountain climbing" has long been ingrained in their bones, and there is no possibility of forgetting it.
Following the guide, the group maintained a good efficiency. When they reached halfway up the mountain, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
In the winter, there will be heavy snow and even blizzards in the mountains.
This first snow after the beginning of winter came even earlier than on the grassland. The higher up the mountain they went, the colder it became, causing the soldiers to unconsciously wrap their clothes tightly.
When they arrived at the outpost on the inner side of the barren mountain, considering the time, it was already evening, so they decided to rest here for a night.
The outpost received the news in advance and confirmed the situation, and also made arrangements in advance. After picking up the people, they led them directly inside.
During this process, many people, including Hongshi, were looking at this outpost.
After they were captured, the people responsible for escorting them took them directly across the barren mountains to the post station at the foot of the mountain. They had never been here before.
Looking here now, even Hongshi was shocked.
At first glance, it looks like a village.
I was afraid of being embarrassed, so I didn't dare to ask.
Otherwise, the guards stationed at this outpost would tell them clearly that this place was actually a village before.
Although this place has been downgraded to an outpost with the relocation of Huangshan Village, it does not mean that they will demolish some of the original buildings here.
This created a special outpost with specifications that clearly exceeded the normal level, and it also allowed this special outpost to temporarily receive 20 new recruits and settle them down without any pressure at all.
But this is not their final destination. Their destination is Tieshan Village, which is located on the border of their Great Zhou.
The next morning, after breakfast, they set off immediately.
The location of the Desolate Mountain Outpost was originally on the hillside inside the Desolate Mountain. The way down the mountain was much faster than the way up the mountain, so they arrived at the foot of the mountain quite easily.
Then, their entire worldview began to be continuously impacted! There were outpost facilities at the foot of the mountain, which Hongshi and his team knew.
Because when they were brought here as prisoners, they rested at the foot of the mountain.
As a result, they soon discovered that not only the foot of the mountain, but the entire valley area had undergone earth-shaking changes, which made them wonder if they had come to the wrong place.
The trees and vegetation growing here have basically disappeared, making the view of this valley area very wide and bright at a glance.
After a brief walk, they soon discovered a large number of reclaimed fields and specially dug canals on the flat terrain.
After walking for a while through the fields, the newly built Huangshan Village, which was relocated this year, immediately caught the eyes of Hongshi and others. In every aspect, it was better than the old village on the hillside. Including the fields outside the village, the size of the entire village has more than doubled! Updated, thanks to the book friend 'Mo Aiyu's Little Panda' for the reward!
