IV. 207 Test
I saw Master Wu step forward and press the seemingly sturdy pyramid made by Yin Lei with his hand, and gently pushed it back and forth a few times, and the pyramid composed of small wooden sticks slowly began to deform, and then fell down with a 'boom'.

A smile appeared on Master Wu's face and said, "In all the structures, the triangle will not change its shape, and this one of yours is a quadrangular, so it will be finished as soon as the force is applied." ā
Saying that, he said to Zhang Qili beside him with a look on his face: "Old Zhang, how thick is our current batch of wood?" ā
"Most of them have a foot and a half, and in order to be strong, they should be polished a little, so let's set it at one foot and two inches."
"Okay, that's it, you go out and choose ...... right away Five thousand pieces of hardwood, and then polish both ends to a foot and two inches. Lao Li, you go to the blacksmith to make connectors, our wood will swell when it is transported under the city wall, these connectors should be a little thicker, just make one foot three inches, at least one foot five deep, and then make five thousand large curiums. The few things prepared for General Chu are also almost finished, and I will go to supervise the work in the past two days to grasp it and strive to use it together. Now that we have this thing and what we have prepared for General Chu, it should be foolproof, Xiao Xiao and Xuanyuan, you should go back first, if you have time in two days, you can come and take a look, don't let anyone know about the things here. ā
Xiao Qiang smiled: "This time, several masters are going to be busy again, let's come back the day after tomorrow." ā
Then he motioned to Yin Lei to leave, and the two of them left the cabin.
"Mr. Xiao, I see that there are still a few more that can be used in that book, why do they ......."
"There is no one who can compare to Master Wu in the civil engineering agency of our Iron and Blood Province, since he chose this, then he has his reasons, as for why he didn't choose the other kind, you can come and ask later, but he is very busy now, after this time, you can come to him for advice, I think he will be very willing to guide you."
"Mr. Xiao, I have a few friends here, and I want you to transfer them to my private army."
"Okay, you give me the list."
"Don't bother, it's only four people .......
Then Yin Lei told Xiao Qiang about Sun Decai and a few people, Xiao Qiang thought for a while and said: "It is more troublesome to transfer different systems, and now is the time to employ people, it is not good to transfer people from the main attack force, Zhang Xi and Li Zhaolin of the guard battalion, Wang Yang of the military discipline battalion, I can transfer them first, and Sun Decai of the cavalry battalion will have to wait for us to lay down the peace." ā
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao, I'll go to live with Zhang Xina today, and I'll go to you tomorrow."
"It's okay, remember Master Wu's words, don't tell your private army about the matter here, lest they leak out of their mouths."
"Yes, Mr. Xiao."
After a while, Yin Lei appeared in front of Zhang Xi, and when he saw Yin Lei, Zhang Xi couldn't help but be overjoyed, fortunately, he was also in charge, and had his own separate camp.
Xiao Qiang was very efficient, and the next day Yin Lei and the two had just gotten up for breakfast, and the herald had already brought Li Zhaolin and Wang Yang here, and told Yin Lei that the relationship between the three had been transferred to his private army, and from today onwards, the three of them were under the jurisdiction of Yin Lei, and at the same time, a large camp was arranged for Yin Lei and the four of them to be several times larger than Zhang Xi's here.
A few people didn't salute much, and after everyone settled down, Yin Lei told the three of them about his formation of a private army, and the three of them knew that Wang Qing had brought out almost all the disciples of Xing'antai, and Liu Yishou's original intention was to let a few people enter the barracks just to find a shelter for the disciples of Xing'antai, but now the situation is different, he wants to form a private army with strong combat power for Yin Lei, so he has asked Wang Qing to bring out all the most elite disciples of Xing'antai, and these people have been learning art with Liu Yishou for at least ten years. At the very least, they also have third-rate skills, and it is conceivable that these people will become an invincible army with a little training.
Among the 1,000 private troops, there are 1,000 total 1,000 people who have trained Gang Qi to the eleventh layer, and 10 of the 100 total are all registered disciples of Liu Yishou, all of these people have trained Gang Qi to the seventh or eighth layer, and one hundred Shi Chang are Xing'antai disciples who have trained Gang Qi to more than five layers, and most of the remaining 1,000 people are from Xing'an Tai, and the other few are from several nearby villages.
Now that these four first-class masters have joined, the strength of Yin Lei's private army has reached a higher level.
The next day, Xiao Qiang asked Yin Lei to go over early in the morning, and Yin Lei knew that he was going to the engineer battalion, so he asked a few people to go to see Xiao Qiang.
Half an hour later, Xiao Qiang and Yin Lei came to the cabin again, only to see thousands of soldiers standing in front of the cabin, these soldiers were divided into two teams, all wearing blood-red armor with their backs to Yin Lei, and the two stood there motionless, but the moment Yin Lei saw them, it was as if he saw a giant beast lying in front of him, and an extremely depressing feeling made Yin Lei extremely uncomfortable.
Xiao Qiang, who seemed to feel Yin Lei's feelings, said: "This is the personal soldiers of General Chu and General Zhao, they are all warriors who are one in a hundred, each of them can block ten with one, and all of them have practiced more than three layers of internal family qi, they are all selected from the most elite elite soldiers, and if you want to enter these two teams, you must not only be strong in martial arts but also innocent." ā
Yin Lei said: "Their own soldiers have been brought here, who will protect their safety?" ā
"The Xing'an army has three thousand bloodthirsty iron horsemen, and they will be responsible for the safety of the two generals."
On the left side of these elites are neatly stacked with a large number of huge logs trimmed at both ends, and on the right are many five-foot square connectors, seeing these two things piled up like a hill, Yin Lei was secretly surprised in his heart, the efficiency of the engineer battalion is too amazing, right?
Xiao Qiang seemed to see Yin Lei's thoughts, and smiled: "In order to help the engineer battalion rush to make equipment, General Chu transferred five thousand soldiers to the engineer battalion. ā
Yin Lei only understood how he came back when he heard this, but he still didn't understand the battle in front of him.
These Xiao Qiang had already taken the lead and walked past these soldiers, and Yin Lei hurriedly followed, only then did he find that the left and right soldiers were slightly different in the style of armor, thinking that these were two different teams belonging to General Zhao Tie and General Chu.
Seeing Yin Lei and the others coming, Wu Youchun and two other old men came out, and behind them there were two expressionless senior generals, Wu Youchun said: "Two little friends, we have already tried it yesterday, and today I specially let you take a look at our results."
Saying that, he made a gesture to the two generals behind him, and the two immediately took a few steps forward and came to the three of them, Yin Lei and Xiao Qiang hurriedly took a few steps forward and stood side by side with Master Wu, only to see these two people come to the two teams and stand still and shouted in a low voice: "Everyone prepare...... Begin. ā
At the sound of the order, these thousands of people suddenly moved, and they acted as if they had rehearsed hundreds of times, and although thousands of people acted at the same time, they were not chaotic at all.
The two-zhang long wood is hundreds of pounds, but these people have chopsticks in their hands, but when they move the connectors, they are a little difficult, these connectors are not only more than five hundred pounds and not easy to start, they can also do it, but not everyone can lift these connectors.
However, the skills of the people in these two teams are not the same, and the skills of the elders among them are obviously deeper, and the work of moving the connector naturally falls on these people.
When the bottom layer of the pillar was erected, someone immediately set up a ladder with a giant log, only to see those soldiers with slightly deeper skills to lift the connector a few steps to the top of the column to put the connector up, and then many soldiers resisted the huge wood to install the horizontal wood above, and soon the first layer of ten zhang long and three zhang wide was installed, at this time some special shapes of wood were composed, and ladders were installed on three sides of this huge base.
Then a three-foot-long curium connected all the joints in pairs, and soon the first layer became a monolith.
Under Yin Lei's gaze, it was only about a quarter of an hour that all five layers were assembled, Wu Youchun turned back to Zhang Qili behind him and said, "Old Zhang, how long did it take this time?" ā
"A quarter of an hour and five breaths."
"Well, eleven breaths faster than last time, it seems that you can enter a quarter of an hour in a few more times, which will be twice as fast as an ordinary soldier, two little friends, let's go up and try."
Saying that, he took the lead, Yin Lei and the others also followed, he walked up with a little bit of force, but found that this shelf is extremely strong, it seems that even a thousand catties of boulders may not be able to shake this set of shelves, he looked carefully, but found that all the connected wood joints were all curium, no wonder this thing is so strong.
Standing at the top of this wooden shelf, Master Wu said to Xiao Qiang and Yin Lei: "I don't know if the two little friends have any opinions on this?" ā
Xiao Qiang thought for a while and said, "This thing is afraid of fire." ā
Wu Youchun said with a smile: "I have thought about this, all the wood is transported by water, and after being soaked in water, it is poured with kerosene, and it will not be used in a short time." ā
Xiao Qiang nodded and said no more, Yin Lei looked at the shelf under his feet and said: "The ground under the city wall is uneven, I see that there are many huge stones under the city wall, and the ground there is uneven, I am afraid of ......." ā
"Xuanyuan boy, you think well, I already have a solution to this, do you have any other questions?"
"When we first built it, it was seven or eight feet high from the wall, and if they threw some big stones from the wall, it would have a big impact on the bottom."
"I've also thought about this, stones below a thousand catties have little impact on us, and they can't throw big stones far, we will be about five feet away from the city wall when we build under the city wall, so even if we occasionally drop a few will not hurt us, do you have any other questions?"
"It's not easy to transport these things by water, right? Moreover, these connectors are very heavy and cannot be transported by water. ā
"Before you brought this thing, we had several other ways to siege the city, but it wasn't as practical as this thing, but here's a giant car that just happened to match this thing, you see......."
Wu Youchun pointed diagonally downwards as he spoke, and Yin Lei couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at it, only to see rows of huge chariots more than a foot high parked behind the cabin.
Wu Youchun said: "Originally, we were going to install another thing on this chariot, but now we have to modify the connector." ā
Yin Lei said with some curiosity: "What should be loaded in such a big car?" ā
