Chapter 124: Building the Great Wall
Subsequently, after some careful deliberation by everyone, the plan for building the Great Wall was basically preliminarily decided, but it still needs to be explored specifically to see if it is feasible. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info besides, building such a big Great Wall is not a trivial matter, and Zhu Jiancheng also needs to report to Wang Xiaode and Viscount Terence.
Among them, Viscount Terrance will reduce a lot of trouble even if he just goes through a procedure. But the most important thing is to ask Wang Xiaode's opinion.
After the meeting, Zhu Jiancheng came to the basement of the castle, this basement is generally only accessible to Wang Xiaode, but when encountering things, Zhu Jiancheng also has the right to enter and exit freely, as for others, they must get Wang Xiaode's consent, even if they are Chinese, they can only enter with Zhu Jiancheng. Take out a white jade plaque from your carry-on storage bag and crush it. At the same time that Zhu Jiancheng crushed the jade plaque, Wang Xiaode, who was meditating at Taishan Temple at this time, had an induction and took out a white fish plaque with a crack on his body. Then Wang Xiaode flashed and appeared in the basement of Ronal Castle.
This kind of jade plate is called the concentric jade plate of the mother and the mother, and it has one mother jade plate and multiple sub-jade plates. When different sub-jade plates are broken, there will be a different number of cracks on the mother jade plates. And this time, Zhu Jiancheng was one of the jade plates that he crushed, telling Wang Xiaode that he had something to discuss with him.
When Wang Xiaode came to the basement and saw Zhu Jiancheng who was already waiting on the side, he asked, "Is there something wrong?" "Wang Xiaode has instructed him, don't report small things in general, let them deal with them by themselves, since they call themselves over this time, the matter must be not small, but there is only one rift, and it is obviously not a matter of life and death.
Zhu Jiancheng replied, "Didn't we canonize the Harris family some time ago, we found that the more west, the more sand beasts there are, and the remaining area that can be cultivated is also limited, so we plan to clean up all the land that can be developed, and then build a Great Wall on the boundary between it and the desert to prevent the attack of sand beasts in the future, but in this way, the desert to the west of the Great Wall will not be easy to develop, and now the barony has not finished the construction of the city, I am worried that the two projects will have any impact, This requires a lot of manpower and material resources. ”
Wang Xiaode was also stunned when he heard Zhu Jiancheng's plan, but he quickly thought about it, "Building the Great Wall, this is a big deal, you dare to think about it." But it's a good idea, as for whether to develop the desert in the future, that's a matter for later, and even if we develop the Great Wall into a city wall in the future, we may not be able to find it in our small city of 150 square kilometers."
Wang Xiaode agreed to their plan, about to build a length of 15,000 meters of the Great Wall, compared to the Great Wall of the earth, this is even a pocket version of the Great Wall, not even one thousandth, but the Great Wall of the earth in history is also connected by small Great Wall, so this pocket Great Wall is nothing.
However, the next specific affairs were handed over to Zhu Jiancheng and them, and Wang Xiaode was just a pass, after all, these territories would be handed over to them in the future, and it was impossible for him to interfere too much. The reason why Wang Xiaode started to build the Great Wall at the same time that the baronial city has not yet been built is actually for other reasons, because according to the laws of the Antonine Kingdom, every city and the local temple must send people to preach here, and the Barony of Ronald is now small in scale, and the city has not yet been built, so the temple in the Warrens County has not sent a priest apprentice to take charge of the local church.
And now the construction of the Great Wall can delay the construction of the city, and the personnel of the natural temple will not come so soon, at least it can be delayed for a day, and when it can't be delayed, then find a way to solve it through some means. Wang Xiaode had known about it a long time ago, and he had also seen it in Donaldson's barony, and often the priests and apprentices sent by the temple to the barony were some priests and apprentices with better qualifications, but don't think that the temple is so powerful, there will be a lot of priests or sacrifices, on the contrary, their number is often insufficient.
This is a world where the gods appear to the world, and the change of faith is very frequent, and the number of believers who devout a certain god will be very small, so there are many gods who will cultivate believers' families in the world, which are represented by the royal family, and they are often either the descendants of the gods or the descendants of the first pope of the gods. Because of family relationships, children and grandchildren are often more likely than others to believe in the gods they worship in their own families.
Although there are many royal families in the Anthony Kingdom, there are not many descendants who can really take charge of themselves, and they have to be distributed to every city in the entire kingdom. Therefore, the best people are often in the temple, that is, the territory above the county, because of the requirements of the Antonine Kingdom, each county must set up a formal temple and have a large number of clergy. And the viscounties below, the baronys can only send priests or excellent priest apprentices.
And priests and priest apprentices, their magic power is much worse than Wang Xiaode's cultivation, especially the priest apprentice, in Wang Xiaode's eyes, there is no difference between ordinary people, their blessing skills, healing techniques can not be compared with Wang Xiaode's aura nourishment effect, as well as the healing effect of rune water, of course, Wang Xiaode is not prepared to fight with them. But the priest's apprentice generally only has these two divine arts, and if he has mastered other divine techniques, then he is not a priest's apprentice, but a priest.
After Zhu Jiancheng got Wang Xiaode's approval, he began to gather people and began to plan the construction of the Great Wall, which was even more priority than the construction of the city. They needed to scout the western desert frontier and draw up a detailed topographic map before designing a reasonable route to the Great Wall before they could consider construction, and because it was so close to the desert, it was necessary to have soldiers to protect the professional surveyors.
Many of these builders were hired from outside, and of course, among the slaves, some special talents could sometimes be found, although they were nothing in the eyes of the nobles, but they were still very important to the current barony.
This process is progressing very slowly, and Zhu Jiancheng is not too urging, after all, there is no large-scale canonization of knights, and even if you don't canonize knights, it's nothing, it can all be counted as the direct territories of the barony, and they can be directly built and managed.
