In the afternoon, accompanied by Gao Muqing, Lin Jue traveled all over the two mountains under the jurisdiction of the cottage. Lin Jue brought pen and paper, drew a topographic map on the spot, and seriously started from the most basic step.

Gao Muqing was very moved, she felt Lin Jue's passion and sincerity. She knew that this man was genuinely thinking about his cottage and the people under him. This may be a kind of compensation, but at the same time, it is also a love for yourself. Gao Muqing enjoyed this process very much, she would rather not care about anything, leave everything to Lin Jue to take care of, and be the woman by his side with peace of mind. But she also understands that it is impossible. The reason why Lin Jue was in such a hurry to do these things was because he couldn't stay here for a long time, he would have to leave sooner or later. As soon as he thought of this, Gao Muqing felt sad.

The two of them crossed the path between the trees, and finally stopped on the sunny flat ground above a cliff in Higashiyama. This is the top of a cliff on the east side of the valley, and you can see the wide, flat valley below. That's where the valley of the wild goose gets its name.

Below the valley, snow covers the entire valley. Beneath the sparse trees is a flat, open ground. There are also several lakes that are not small. When Lin Jue saw the whole picture at a glance, he was excited. This is more perfect than Liang Qi's narrative at the beginning.

"What a valley, it's so beautiful. It's a treasure trove. Mu Qing, you have a vision, it's really good to occupy this place. Looking at all this under the cliff, Lin Jue expressed his heartfelt admiration.

The two sat down on a piece of grass at the top of the cliff, Gao Muqing leaned closely against Lin Jue, squinted in the sun and smiled: "My husband has lifted me, where do I know what treasure land, but I was forced to be helpless at that time and wanted to find a place to stay." The letter you wrote said it was a good place, and I really realized that it was a good place. ”

Lin Jue laughed and said, "Then you are really a fool and a fool." Do you know how difficult it is to find such a flat and open valley in the midst of these mountains? Have you seen what I said in my letter? ”

Gao Muqing said softly: "Are you talking about settling the people?" ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Exactly." You should understand that the current situation of Shanzhai is not optimistic. Although there is no need to worry about food and clothing at present, it is impossible to only consume without production. Of course, you can find a way to buy food and supplies from outside. But you have to understand that this is not a long-term solution. Once the officers and soldiers are tightly sealed, nothing can enter. At that point, you'll be in trouble. Therefore, self-sufficiency is the most fundamental response. The more than 1,000 people in the cottage must also live and work in peace and contentment, and they are not willing to sit in the house every day. There are no conditions for cultivation in the mountains, but with this valley, the situation is different. The people can reclaim the valley to grow rice and grain, which will be the basis for the survival of the cottage. The plains of this valley are all alluvial by rain, and I dare say they are fertile land, which must be very suitable for cultivation. In addition, there are several lakes in the northern highlands, which solve the problem of irrigation. If there is land and water, this is the most suitable cultivation condition. So you've found a treasure. ”

Gao Muqing was a little absent-minded, Lin Jue said, she responded beside her. Lin Jue glanced at her in surprise and found that Gao Muqing was looking at him silently and affectionately. A pink face was crystal clear in the sun, white as clotted cream.

"Husband said yes, I'll listen." Gao Muqing said softly.

Lin Jue reached out and hugged her in his arms, leaned over and kissed her on the lips. Gao Muqing hugged his neck and reacted, and the two gasped for a while before parting.

"You're here for me tonight." Lin Jue said in a low voice.

Gao Muqing nodded with a red face.

"But for now, you'll have to listen to me. I won't be here for long, I can only do all the planning and all the ideas to you, but you need to do the rest. This is related to the survival of more than 1,000 people in the cottage, and you can't take it lightly. ”

Lin Jue's words suddenly sobered Gao Muqing, originally she didn't have the heart to listen to Lin Jue say this, but Lin Jue's words made her realize the responsibility on her shoulders.

Gao Muqing sat up straight, pulled her hair and said, "You say, I'll listen carefully." ”

Lin Jue couldn't help laughing, hugged her and kissed her again, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be so serious." It's strange that you're like that. ”

Gao Muqing glanced at Lin Jue, reached out to hug Lin Jue's arm, and pressed his elastic chest against Lin Jue's arm. Lin Jue coughed, turned his gaze to the valley, and continued.

"As I said, the terrain of this valley is suitable for farming. And more than 1,000 people in the cottage can also live here. The cottage is completely self-sufficient. Grow food, raise livestock, grow vegetables, and if you are locked off outside, you will not be trapped here. It will actually be ready for planting next spring. But before that, there are a few things to get right. ”

Gao Muqing said: "Did you say in the letter about building a dam to stop the water? ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Exactly, Liang Qi said the situation here at that time, and I felt that I needed to do this." Seeing what happened here now strengthens my mind. The reason why this valley is flat and open must have been caused by the accumulation of soil from the impact of flash floods. In other words, dams should be built to hold back the water in case of flooding after the rains, otherwise crops will not be able to be planted. A dam was erected at the upstream point, and a hill was built on the side, so that the water could accumulate to a certain height and flow from the hill to the small valley to the west. In addition to the dikes, it is also necessary to dig ditches in the valley to accumulate water in the rainy season and divert water in the dry season. You see, that's it. ”

Lin Jue used the dead branches on the ground to form a dam on the grass, and then a main canal along the valley, next to the branch canals that extended to all corners like leaf veins. Between the canals, the leaves are used as large fields.

Gao Muqing nodded again and again: "I understand, neither waterlogging nor drought." The harvest is harvested. ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Yes, this is the role of the water conservancy irrigation system, which guarantees harvest in drought and flood." Also, the people did not have to live in the mountains, and it was inconvenient to go up and down the mountains, and they were not suitable for life and work. The accommodation is still best in the valley of the flatlands. Look at the valley over there where there are many trees, and if trees can grow, it means that it is a high place, and it will not be flooded. It can be used as a village. In this way, the cottage can be separated from the people's dwellings. The barracks are barracks, and the dwellings are dwellings, and the barracks are on the mountains for the convenience of defense and warfare, but the people do not need to live on the mountains with the soldiers and horses. Garrison a team in the valley to keep the law and order and guard against wild beasts. ”

Gao Muqing said dumbfounded: "Husband, you know a lot. ”

Lin Jue kissed her and said with a smile: "That's nature, I know more than you think." ”

Gao Muqing threw Lin Jue a graceful white eye. Lin Jue smiled and continued: "But did you find it, there is a huge problem here. Once you are plowing in the valley, you have to think about the enemy's attack. The mountain on the southwest side of the valley is Laojun Mountain, right? Now it's controlled by Bao Meng's people, right? To the south is the territory of the guy named Zuo Zongdao, right? Once they descended into the valley, they could easily destroy the fields and slaughter the people. We can't fight them in the valley, because we have too few men and it's foolish to do so. But if we need to protect the people and the farmland in the valley, we have to do it. This is a huge contradiction. ”

Gao Muqing's expression became nervous, and Dai frowned and said, "Yes, in this way, wouldn't it be that we were restrained by them." Spending a lot of effort to cultivate and plant has become a burden. So how can this self-sufficiency plan be implemented? ”

Lin Jue said solemnly: "Mu Qing, this is an important matter that I want to discuss with you. Shanzhai should be based on this and develop. The people have to farm, and the cottages have to be self-sufficient. All of this is based on the fact that we are not threatened. If even basic survival safety cannot be guaranteed, let alone anything else? What do you want to talk about development and growth? Although Luoyan Valley is controlled by us, strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as in our hands. Because someone else will easily come and take it away. This must be done once and for all to be cleared of the threat of the enemy, and everything will proceed smoothly as we envisioned. ”

Gao Muqing's eyes widened and asked, "Husband, but how to remove the threat?" ”

Lin Jue said softly: "There is only one way to remove the threat, to completely eradicate him!" ”

Gao Muqing's body was shocked, and he said in a low voice: "Eradication? How to eradicate? ”

……

In the past few days, a large-scale military training and large-scale construction upsurge have been set off in the cottages of Luoyan Valley. Every morning and evening, the sound of killing on the training ground in the mountains and forests shook the sky, and the confrontation was fierce. Huge plaques are nailed to the trees at the edge of the woodland to form inspirational slogans.

"Sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime."

"If you don't train as a soldier, you will be empty after all."

"United, lively, serious, intense."

"Practice hard to kill the enemy and defend Luoyan Dazhai!"

"It's glorious to be a pacesetter, and it's shameful to be lazy and slippery!"

The inspiring slogans created a momentum of large-scale military training in full swing. In addition, in the center of the training ground, above the tall wooden tower made of logs, a huge banner painted with wild geese flying with wings fluttering in the air. It was the village flag of the Luoyan Valley and the military flag of the Luoyan Army.

At the same time, the construction of Luoyan Valley Dazhai has also begun to accelerate. In a matter of days, the area of the glade was doubled. Men, women and children went into battle together, cut down the trees around Dazhai out of a corridor more than 30 steps away, and began to remove weeds and dry grass and smooth the road. This is not only to open up a fire prevention channel, but also for the defense needs of the surrounding area of Dazhai after completion. Otherwise, with the current pattern, the surrounding area of the mansion is full of woodland, and the enemy may not know about the approach to Dazhai in the mountains and forests. After the circular passage was opened, after the wall was erected in the future, there was an area where there was nowhere to hide, which was conducive to the defense of the cottage.

Construction of the walled wall also began, and the construction of the fence along the outer edge of the newly expanded open space began. In order to prevent fire, Lin Jue ordered that the walls should not be built with logs, and must be built with mud and stone. For this purpose, a rock wall was found above the hillside and large-scale rock mining began. A kiln was built on the side of the rock wall to calcine the rock to obtain white ash and mix the extremely strong triple rammed earth.
