In Laizhou, the two navy troops fought fiercely, as if they were hostile to the same blue sky. At the junction of Luzhou and Kunling County, although both sides gathered large troops, they looked harmonious.

Guo Xiancheng and Yang Zhi, the commander of these two armies, have met several times, and have conducted some necessary negotiations in advance on the upcoming alliance between the emperors of the two countries. Just the location of the alliance, both sides have argued for a long time. No matter who raised the place, the other party can always find too many problems. It took a long time to reach a final agreement. The location of the alliance was set at Lianhuafeng in Luzhou.

The lotus flower front stands about twenty miles in Luzhou and is close to Kunling County. The key is that he is a lonely hairpin. As we climb to the top of the mountain, the scenery on both sides is unobstructed. Around the lonely hairpin is a vast and endless field. After years of war, this land has basically become deserted. In such a place, if any side wants to make any conspiracy or ambush some military horses, it is the moon in the water and flowers in the mirror.

Guo Xiancheng felt that the location of the alliance was set within the territory of Qi and he had taken advantage of it. It was like the emperor of Ming Dynasty who came to Qi and lowered his head. By the same token, Yang Zhi also felt that he had taken advantage of it. The army of Ming Dynasty could unscrupulously advance to Qi's land during this period of time. This was a good start and meant conquest.

Both sides satisfactorily put their names and seals on the documents of the alliance location with their own little thoughts. The emperor's alliance naturally had to make a lot of preparations. At least the current primitive state of Lianhuafeng is very inconsistent with the identities of the two emperors who will meet here. Renovating the Lotus Peak is a natural thing.

It is logical that Lotus Peak is within Qi State, so it is natural that Qi State will take on these matters, but Yang Zhi does not want to do this.

"General Guo, you build a road to the top of the mountain from the side close to you. We also build a road to the top of the mountain from our side. The two sides agreed that a day should start construction at the same time. Whoever builds the top of the mountain first will be responsible for the renovation of the peak. How about?" Yang Zhi said with a smile.

"General Yang, do you want to fight for this?" Guo Xiancheng looked at Yang Zhi dissatisfiedly.

"What should be fought for must be fought. General Guo won't let the emperors of our two countries overcome all obstacles to climb the mountain, right?" Yang Zhi said with a smile.

Guo Xiancheng stared at Yang Zhi for a while before saying, "It's okay to cultivate one of them. The Eight Immortals cross the sea and show their magical powers. But there is one requirement: not only should they cultivate quickly, but they should also cultivate well, and they should show the identity of the emperors of the two countries." He stared at Yang Zhi with a slight smile, "If anyone cultivates it so badly, he will not be qualified to speak."

Guo Xiancheng's words naturally mean something. Because the Ming people have cement, the speed of building roads or building houses is extremely fast. The light is comparable to that of the Ming people. This time, Guo Xiancheng made a lot of preparations for the two countries to build a good road and go up the mountain. In the plan, all the materials needed for road construction were already ready. The previous plan was to invite the emperors of the two countries to climb the mountain together. When Yang Zhi made such a fuss, he would go up the mountain along two different roads and finally gather at the top of the mountain.

"No problem!" Yang Zhi agreed happily.

Yang Zhi, who returned to Xiaoshi City, looked at the clever hand of the Minister of Works and knocked on the table and said, "We need a road, a road that can make the Qi people look like they have no face. It must not only be fast, but also strong and gorgeous. I want to build a Ming-style hall on the top of the Lotus Peak, so that he can stand on the top of the Lotus Peak, and never laugh at the incompetence of the Qi people at all times."

The clever laughed: "General Yang, don't worry, the Qi people can't beat us on the battlefield, and they can't beat us on the construction of roads, bridges and houses. Leave the war to your soldiers. You just look at mine."

"If I lose..."

"If I lose, I will twist my head off and serve as a chamber pot for you." The clever hand said without any doubt.

"Okay!" Yang Zhi laughed.

The skillful hand turned around and looked at the large number of people behind him. Among them were the construction team affiliated to the Ministry of Works and suppliers of various materials.

"Everyone, General Yang has just made the matter clear. From tomorrow on, we will have to have a fight with Qi people. I have already bet on my own heads. If you lose my face in Daming, I won't say you want your heads, but I will definitely let you disappear from this business."

"Don't worry, sir, sir, general, we will fulfill our mission!" Everyone in the house bowed together.

When the two countries began to compete in one aspect, the energy burst out naturally was infinite. After the two generals made a bet, countless tents were set up on both sides of the Lotus Peak in just one night, and countless materials began to gather here continuously.

When the sun rose the next day, both sides started construction at the same time. No one wanted to lose the competition. Both sides invested thousands of people to go to Lotus Peak. If we included the staff who provided materials here in the rear, these two not-so-long roads would be used to tens of thousands of people.

The Ming people naturally would not give up on their killer cement. Teams of tall and strong soldiers waved the engineer shovels and dug out steps on the steep hillside. Behind them, construction workers immediately put the mold on and put the mold on. Then the stirred cement slurry fell down. The big stick poked and pounded it. The cement slurry was steadily pounded. A mud knife was used to smear, and a piece of flat steps appeared in front of everyone.

Compared with the Ming people, the Qi people directly transported a piece of polished precious stone. After the soldiers dug the foundation, they installed the stones and then carefully tamped them.

Both sides worked hard to build upwards. The first three days ago, both sides were evenly matched, but the road built by the Qi people seemed much more beautiful. The white stone extended upwards between the green mountains, just like a jade belt wrapped around it. On both sides of the road, the Qi craftsmen had already begun to build white jade railings. However, the Ming people looked at it, but they were still covered in dust.

The turning point occurred on the third day.

The road was getting higher and higher, and it became increasingly difficult for Qiren's stones to transport upwards, and the speed naturally slowed down. However, Mingren had set up a series of complex-shaped machinery, and there was one every few dozen meters. This kind of thing like a siege tower stretched out toward the mountain, covered with moving log sticks. At the bottom, an old cow slowly circled a circle like a grinder, driven by a soldier. The log sticks turned around and sent bags of cement, piece of stone, and buckets of water sealed up to the mountain. Compared to Qiren's shoulders and hunched back, Mingren's speed seemed too fast.

The first part of the mountain was repaired, and the weeds laid on it were removed. The bright yellow stone slabs from the west were carefully moved down, smeared on them, and embedded them under the cement steps. Compared with the white jade used by Qi people to build roads, this kind of stone is even more precious, because it only comes from one place, the far west desert.

On the sixth day, Guo Xiancheng knew that he was definitely losing because the Ming people had already started to play flower work at this time. Compared to Qi people who built a stairway up and straight, the Ming people began to turn around the mountain and began to shape the stairway. They even had extra staff to remove weeds and rocks on both sides of the road, make them flat, and then transport various flowers to plant them. The key is that these flowers are also matched into patterns according to the different colors.

Yang Zhi originally wanted to use the words "Wansheng of the Ming Dynasty" here to stimulate Guo Xiancheng, but this slightly arrogant plan was rejected by Zeng Lin and clever hands.

Guo Xiancheng gave up the idea of ​​competing with the Ming people. Now he only asked his craftsmen to try to build the road where his emperor climbed the mountain as beautiful as possible, otherwise his emperor would lose face when he climbed the mountain.

When the Ming people finally built the road to the top of the mountain, the Qi people only completed two-thirds.

The Ming people who climbed to the top of the mountain naturally began to build the main hall where the two emperors met without hesitation. After several nights of sleep, they drew a palace architectural pattern with the characteristics of Ming people, while the workers began to build day and night.

The steel and concrete structure was used in this construction. What Yang Zhi wanted was a permanent building. He wanted him to stand here all the time. As long as everyone in the world saw it, he would feel like he was slapped in the face.

Guo Xiancheng stood on the top of the mountain, watching Mingren dig deep pits, put down the molds, tie the steel bars, and then buckets of cement and pebbles fell down. In less than half a day, dozens of tall cement mold columns stood on the top of the mountain.

His face looked ugly. He was not only concerned about the loss this time, but also about the all-round gap between the two sides in infrastructure, transportation and supply, and material allocation.

This is a small reflection of a country's comprehensive strength. There is no doubt that Qi State was completely defeated.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Guo Xiancheng looked at the beautiful and beautiful mountaineering avenue that the Mingren had completed, and then looked at the pale path on the other side. He felt a little bitter. When his emperor reached the top of the mountain, his mood was afraid that he would be the same as himself now.
Chapter completed!
