Throne of Vientiane Civilization

There is no doubt that to further improve the transportation efficiency and upgrade the wooden cart to a horse cart, donkey cart or ox cart can bring them great convenience.

But if you want to say how urgent this matter is, it is actually not.

On the side of the barren mountain camp, although affected by the ecological environment on the Gobi side, half of the mountain is bare and very desolate, but the ecological environment on the other side of the mountain is not bad.

Plus the crops that the former leader Wang Luchong brought out from the depths of the mountains.

At this stage, as long as the new fields are settled, the barren mountain camp is completely self-sufficient.

The only time when efficiency is needed is when the camp is attacked.

Although according to Zhou Xu's previous analysis, the barbarian tribe deep in the mountains is unlikely to leave the land with richer resources aside and spend so much effort to provoke them.

But analysis belongs to analysis. Sometimes people are not as good as heaven, and the precautions that should be done still have to be done.

In the unlikely event that a battle broke out that the barren mountain camp could not resolve independently, the efficiency of support would be very important.

However, this does not change the fact that the problem of centaurs and hyenas is difficult to solve.

And if you want to circumvent this problem and don't consider the efficiency of support, the best way is to store heavy troops directly in the barren mountain camp to further improve their independent combat capabilities.

In terms of numbers, after the fifty prisoners of war left, not counting the large troops they brought over, according to the latest statistics, there were 109 people left in the barren mountain camp.

The scale of more than a hundred people is definitely enough under the premise that the short-term goal is only to hold the camp and farm with peace of mind for development.

However, among the 109 people, most of them were prisoners of war.

For these prisoners of war, Zhou Xu would definitely not stay here, in case something happened, it would be difficult to control.

He kept at most 30 of these prisoners in the barren mountain camp, and the rest were all scattered and distributed to the other three camps.

Of course, in this way, the number of people in the barren mountain camp would be less than a hundred.

Of course, Zhou Xu also considered this point, he would replace people from the other three camps to ensure that there were a hundred people in the barren mountain camp.

Under this premise, there is no doubt that there is a need for a trustworthy and capable subordinate to sit in charge here.

Considering that the opponent needs to have the ability to be independent, there are actually not many choices left for him.

【Ye Jinghong, Shi Lei and Li Ce, these are basically the three candidates. 】

[In terms of trust, among the three, I definitely trust Jinghong the most, but he is currently in the grassland camp, and considering his talent, it is undoubtedly a bit wasteful for him to stay in a camp that operates independently for a long time up. 】

【The rest are Shi Lei and Li Ce...】

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu fell into deep thought, and finally made a decision.

"Let Shi Lei come and sit in the barren mountain camp!"

This is tentatively the result of his deliberation.

Compared with Li Ce, who is obviously more aggressive, Shi Lei, who is talented at "step by step", is an all-rounder who can "advance and attack, retreat and defend" in Zhou Xu's view.

And Shi Lei's style of work is calm, the most important thing in guarding the camp is to be calm, and at the same time, the willpower must be strong enough.

At the moment of life and death, you may last for a while longer, and the reinforcements will arrive, and the situation will be different.

Therefore, in general, compared to Li Ce, Shi Lei is a general who is more suitable to sit in the barren mountain camp.

Zhou Xu, who made this decision, directly sent someone back to deliver an order to call Shi Lei over to take up the post.

It is impossible for him to stay at the barren mountain camp forever, according to his plan, basically when Shi Lei arrives, he should return to the Black Moon camp.

After all, the Black Moon camp is the base camp where he focuses on development at this stage.

Zhou Xu did not hide this decision from Li Ce, and properly informed the other party of the reason.

And Li Ce also chose to accept, and did not show any objection.

In the following days, Zhou Xu mainly spent resting and waiting. From time to time, he just stared at the reconstruction work on the campsite.

After a period of time, the progress is still quite good.

The camp, which was missing a piece in the east and a piece in the west due to the large-scale reconstruction, now looks somewhat different.

At the same time, Zhao Geng...

After a long journey, passing through the Salt Lake camp, Zhao Geng, who took a short rest, finally officially arrived at the Black Moon camp at noon of the day!

At that moment, Zhao Geng looked away, staring at the Black Moon camp that came into his eyes from a distance, he was stunned.

He never thought that the layout of a camp could be so well organized! Each area has been reasonably arranged.

During this period, he saw the field being plowed at a glance. Both the scale and layout were far beyond his expectations.

To be honest, he was a little nervous when he saw the Salt Lake camp.

Because the Salt Lake Camp is a functional camp with mining and salt mining as its main work, the facilities of the entire camp are very simple and small in scale.

Compared with the Salt Lake Camp, the Black Moon Camp, which is now Zhou Xu's base camp, has completely exceeded the standard of ordinary primitive villages, regardless of the population.

If it is said that the previous Zhao Geng was still relatively uncertain, then at this moment, he can express in a very firm tone that compared with the Black Moon camp in front of him, the previous camp of Wang Luchong is simply a mess. Just like a pile of shit! And it's still squirming, the kind that sprays everywhere!

The members of the transportation team brought back Zhou Xu's order, and the people headed by Zhao Geng were quickly settled properly.

In particular, Zhao Geng, as an agricultural development talent, has relatively rich farming experience. He must be reused at this critical moment when the farming industry needs to be vigorously developed and the era of farming is opened.

But Zhou Xu didn't come up, and arranged for Zhao Geng to be the Minister of Agriculture.

Different from Ye Yan at that time, Ye Yan did not have a medical department in their tribe at all, so he could directly appoint Ye Yan as the minister to establish a medical department.

But in the agricultural sector, there are some in their tribes, and they have developed to a certain scale.

Although Zhao Geng's own ability is excellent, considering the emotions of his subordinates, it is impossible for him to directly drop Zhao Geng into the air.

In this way, on the grounds that Zhao Geng knew how to grow these newly discovered crops, Zhou Xu first arranged for him to be the leader of the farming team, and let him lead the team members to carry out farming work.

I believe that in this work process, Zhao Geng will soon be able to show his outstanding ability. When he has accumulated a certain amount of actual performance, Zhou Xu will promote his position at that time, and other people who want to come to the Ministry of Agriculture will not think about it Feel dissatisfied.
