Chapter 718: The Critical Moraine!
Chapter 718
In the military, intelligence is the most important, and the most basic requirement of intelligence is accuracy. As the elite of the Tang Dynasty, the Great Dou Army blocked the hundreds of thousands of troops of Wusizang with tens of thousands of troops, making them dare not easily advance eastward.
The scout in front of him, the news that came back was so outrageous, according to military regulations, it could already be severely punished, which was why the generals were so angry.
"My lord, who is the scout near the black wound? According to the rules of the army, he can already be transferred back and removed from his post for investigation!"
In the study, an angry Dadou army general said.
"It's not him who needs to be removed, it's you. ”
Suddenly, a warm, peaceful, but majestic voice sounded from the study, and in an instant, there was a dead silence in the study, and all the subordinates closed their lips and looked straight in one direction.
“...... The news of the second, third, and fourth waves of scouts has come back, and the news above is exactly what you see. In addition, Lord Meng Lingcha, the husband of the Protectorate of the Western Prefecture, also sent me a letter, and I am afraid that everything they said is true. ”
Ge Shuhan put his hands behind his back, and there was no expression fluctuation on his face.
As soon as Ge Shuhan's voice fell, the whole room was silent, and everyone's face revealed an incredible look.
"But how is that possible? What a big city is that! Is it really possible in one night?"
I don't know who it is, muttered to myself.
This sentence spoke the hearts of everyone, although out of respect for the general, no one doubted what he said, but Wang Chong built a steel city wall more than six meters high overnight, which is still like a fantasy for everyone, even now.
However, no one knew that although Ge Shuhan at this moment looked calm on the surface, his inner touch and shock were no less than those of the generals of the Great Dou Army.
"One Night...... More than two feet...... How the hell did he do it?"
Ge Shuhan's heart rose and fell.
When he was in the southwest, Ge Shuhan already knew that the young man who was far away from Wushu had an amazing courage and talent. But when he saw it again, Ge Shuhan still felt a little touched.
Wang Chong's Steel City, Ge Shuhan originally estimated that it would take at least seven or eight months, but now it seems that it will not take that long.
Many rules and rules, once they meet the young son of the Wang family, they seem to immediately become inapplicable. Ge Shuhan has experienced a hundred battles in his life, and his heart is tenacious, and there are few things that can touch his heart, but now, Ge Shuhan really can't understand that bruised young man.
"The plan can't keep up with the changes, it seems that the plan that was originally prepared in a few months is useless, and we have to find another way!"
Ge Shuhan's eyes rolled, and countless thoughts flashed through his heart.
It's been a long time since he's met such a powerful opponent, and although he hasn't seen the young son of the Wang family until now, they have already fought once before everyone realizes it.
There is no doubt that Goshuhan underestimated his opponent.
If it could have been completed to build a wall more than six meters high overnight, then there is no doubt that he deliberately hid it at the beginning, making them paralyzed, until everything was ready, when the time was right, and everything was ready, that he really showed his grandeur.
"Interesting!"
A cold light flashed in Ge Shuhan's eyes.
If you are familiar with this Beidou general, you will know that this is a sign that he is really aroused and taken seriously.
"It's not so easy to take root in the black wound, young man, everything has just begun......
The thought crossed Goshuhan's mind, and everything quickly calmed down.
Anxi, Longxi, Beiting, and Moxi, all the people were shaken by the city built by Wang Chong overnight, and far away, in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty, the spies scattered there by all the forces witnessed an incredible scene.
On the sparsely populated, barren and barren "Silk Road" to the west, Wang Chong unveiled modern scientific and architectural concepts for the first time in the world.
More than 100,000 craftsmen, under the coordination of Wang Chong and Zhang Shouzhi, built this steel city that had never appeared on the land at an unprecedented speed.
When all the scouts arrived near Wushu in the morning, they saw a steel city of about six meters, but by night, the city had become fifteen meters high.
In the history of the Tang Dynasty, and even in the history of Middle-earth, there has never been such a speed of construction, and there has never been a precedent for such modular city construction.
More and more people gathered around the Iron City, and all the forces heard the news, sending scouts several times larger than before, and each force wanted to confirm the news again and again.
Even many Hu people from far away in the Western Regions rushed over.
Everyone watched with shock on their faces as this huge, magnificent, and magnificent steel city was revealed in front of everyone step by step.
It was like a dream, and it was like a miracle!
In front of this sprawling, never-before-seen city of steel, everyone experienced a deep sense of insignificance and insignificance, like ants in front of elephants.
Shock!
Incredible!
Deep awe!
......
This is the feeling in the hearts of all those who have seen the construction of the Steel City. Along with Wang Chong, who owns this steel city and built all this, everyone feels a deep awe from the bottom of their hearts, as if facing a high mountain and an unfathomable god.
"Master Hou, to build this steel city, the rest of your life is enough!"
Fifteen meters high, smooth and steep on the steel city, the wind is mighty, blowing the beard, Zhang Shouzhi stands on the high city wall, fierce and fierce, his face is full of pride and pride.
He has built countless buildings and cities in his life, and even the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty he has participated in the construction, but the biggest pride in his life is the lion city on the shore of Erhai Lake, which changed the fate of the 180,000 Annan protectors and saved the southwest.
And the other is the city of steel at his feet.
In the history of the Tang Dynasty, and in everyone's cognition, all cities should be built of earth and stone, but the city under his feet broke all traditions.
This is the first pure steel city!
The amount of steel and manpower spent on this city is unimaginable to any family, any power, or any master of civil engineering.
To put it simply, this city mobilized the whole world, all the families, all the sword towers, sword shops, and all the experienced craftsmen in the state and county were all used by him to help him build a city together.
This kind of thing has never happened before, except for the royal palace.
This honor is enough to make any master of civil engineering proud and proud.
This is enough to make any master of civil engineering excited and fascinated.
"Mr. Zhang, all this is just beginning, you won't be satisfied now, will you? In the future, we will leave more footprints, not only in Datang, but also in other places, and it will not be just this steel city. ”
Wang Chong and Zhang Shouzhi stood side by side, standing on the city wall and laughing.
"Haha, that's right! It's still too easy to be satisfied, with the Hou Ye here, are you afraid that you can't shine in the annals of history, more majestic, magnificent, and let everyone admire the building. ”
Zhang Shouzhi was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing.
He was close to the age of sixtieth, and he was supposed to live for a long time, but he fought with Wang Chong in the north and south, building various cities, and slowly, even he forgot his age and became young, enthusiastic, and passionate.
Now even he wants to know where his limits are.
"By the way, how are those 'beehives' in the City of Steel ready?"
Wang Cheng said suddenly.
"This ...... , in fact, it has been prepared for a long time, according to Hou Ye's instructions, all the beehives are sealed with wooden strips. Even the guards who escorted it and the craftsmen who participated in the construction didn't know it. ”
Zhang Shouzhi quickly reacted and said.
"Hmm!"
Wang Chong nodded, looking out of the city, more than ten miles apart, there were more and more shadows, and more and more spies from all sides gathered, and there was a sharp light in his eyes.
"The storm is coming, we'll be able to use those things soon, and fifteen meters tall is almost ready to be installed on the walls. ”
Wang Chong said.
Zhang Shouzhi nodded. In order to build this city, Wang Chong invented a lot of clever things, such as pulleys, such as hanging towers, and a new kind of weights and measures, "meters".
Not many people know about this kind of weights and measures, but it is only circulated among Zhang Shouzhi, the disciples around him, and some top craftsmen.
Zhang Shouzhi tried, and found that this new weights and measures were more accurate than ordinary rulers and zhangs, and it was more convenient in civil construction, so he began to vigorously promote it among the people around him.
Now, this kind of weights and measures has been accepted by many civil engineering masters, and it has a tendency to spread and become more and more widely used.
......
Wang Chong soon left the City of Steel.
By the time the city was built fifteen meters high, everything was already on track. With Zhang Shouzhi presiding, the completion of the Steel City is only a matter of time, and with the protection of masters led by Bai Siling and Zhao Hongying, the current Steel City is solid, and there will be absolutely no problems in a short period of time.
"It's time to do that, too!"
Standing on the towering steel city wall at the end, Wang Chong's eyes flashed, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
The black wound approached the west of the moraine and was connected with the fate of the west of the moraine. Although Fu Meng Lingcha is now full of hostility towards him and has a lot of trouble, but Qixi does not belong to him. Rather, it belongs to the whole empire. However, in the future battle of Talas, the conflict between the Tang Dynasty and the Great Eclipse, the Moxi Protectorate, as the nearest source of troops in the rear, did not send a single soldier in time to support, which is incredible!
If Gao Xianzhi asked for help in advance, the Western Protectorate sent a large number of soldiers and horses to support. Maybe that war was not enough to be defeated like this, and Datang would not completely lose that war, and it will never recover.
However, even though he was very dissatisfied with the current Fumeng Lingcha, Wang Chong had to admit that this matter actually had little to do with Fumeng Lingcha. It's not that he is unwilling to support Gao Xianzhi and the Anxi Protectors, but that at that time, the Moxi Protectorate was no longer available!
Yes, there are no soldiers!
