【0188 Building a City Wall】

"Big brother!" Wu Xuexia stomped her feet, coquettish, ashamed and didn't know how to explain, and her anxious face turned even redder.

Wu Sanfeng looked at Wu Xuexia with eyes as if he had discovered something big, and when he saw Wu Xuexia looking so shy, not only was he not in a hurry, but he smiled.

Wu Xuexia glanced at her eldest brother and said angrily: "What are you laughing at?" Big brother, what are you talking about? If I take a fancy to Wei Bao and teach me to be hit by five thunderbolts from the sky, this will be done, right? ”

"Don't, don't, don't, this kind of thing is not good, don't swear by gambling and swearing!" Wu Sanfeng said: "However, whether you really like Wei Bao or not, don't forget that you still have a Zu Ke Fali, besides, Wei Bao is a ladder borrowed to ascend to the sky, and it is definitely not worthy of my sister, so you must not think about Wei Bao." ”

"Who thought about Wei Bao? Who has anything to do with Zukofa? Wu Xuexia said angrily, and two big tears swirled in her beautiful eyes as she spoke.

"It's good that you didn't think about it, don't you forget what Dad told us? If you want to deal with a person, you must first make that person defenseless, to tell you the truth, Dad can say this, but he doesn't plan to let Wei Bao live for long! Sooner or later, one day I will secretly do Wei Bao. Wu Sanfeng sneered.

Wu Xuexia frowned: "Since you think so, what did you do with Wei Bao's silver just now?" ”

"What happened to the cashier? I won't accept it if he gives it to me," Wu Sanfeng said disapprerovantly: "Collect his money, and it will not prevent him from being killed." ”

Wu Xuexia hugged her arms and didn't make a sound, feeling that this was very bad. Although she has been exposed to these methods since she was a child, she does not agree with them. Secretly began to worry about the 'deed of sale' signed with Wei Bao again.

Wu Sanfeng saw that his sister stopped talking again, and said with a smile: "Don't think about Wei Bao's kid, what's the use of a township boy who can do some business?" People like him, if they want to turn over and get ahead, they can only take the road of official career! Is the career so easy? You can only rely on scientific examinations to take the career path, Yongping Mansion has been in Yongping Mansion for so many years, how many people have been admitted to show talents? And it's useless to show talent, even if you are willing to spend money, at least you have to raise people to have the opportunity to be an official. Wei Bao, a big-headed common man with no family background, is useless to lift people in the exam, unless he is admitted to the Jinshi! ”

"What if he gets into the Jinshi?" Wu Xuexia listened to Wu Sanfeng's chattering to herself, and couldn't help but ask.

"Wei Bao is admitted to the Jinshi?" Wu Sanfeng seemed to hear a very funny joke, "If he wants to be able to pass the exam, I will use his head as a stool for him to sit on." I have to be busy doing business, and I have to be busy doing things in the township, where do I have the heart to think about learning? Besides, I wish he had more silver, and the more money he had, the sooner he would die. ”

Wu Xuexia couldn't help frowning again, looking at the night outside the window, silently thinking about her thoughts, and secretly regretting that she shouldn't have followed her eldest brother to Jinshan this time.

For the first time, Wu Xuexia experienced what it was like to have something on her mind.

When Wei Bao returned to the banquet hall of the State Guest House, Uncle Sun Jiu, Sister Fang, Li Chengnei and others were still eating, and Wei's father and mother, Fan Lao Pimple and his wife, Wang Zhihui and his wife, Fan Xiaolin, Xu Rui and Wang Qiuya and others were waiting for Wei Bao.

Wei Bao has already asked Luo San to prepare for the construction of tomorrow, his first step is to build a section of the wall, the wall is the key, the first step to isolate these four miles from the outside world, this is more important than anything else.

Wei Bao is very planned to do things, to build a wall to isolate the four miles from the outside world, on the one hand, there is no need to worry about running into someone's ancestral grave, because the wall needs to be built along the Haihe River and the seaside, no one will bury the ancestral grave on the bank, otherwise there is no embankment made of cement and soil on the riverbank in this era, and it must be washed away by the water.

On the other hand, Wei Bao has been recognized by the Wu family, and with the cards in the officialdom, he has more political advantages than a group of people like Li Zheng and Jiachang, who are in charge of the township, and it is a reasonable and legal behavior.

"Why are you only coming back now? What else do you say to those Li Zheng Chiefs? Eat quickly. Weimu Huang Ying said distressedly.

Wei Bao smiled slightly: "I'm not hungry again, I have food left all day long." ”

"Drink some wine, and then I'll eat two hot loaves of bread, which is more comfortable than anything else." Li Chengnei smiled and said, "Brother, come, drink two cups." ”

Wei Bao smiled and nodded, "Big brother thinks I'm still comfortable here, right?" ”

"Comfortable, more comfortable than Jingshi, I am reluctant to leave. But tomorrow Lord Luo will come. Li Chengnei smiled.

"Then leave Lord Luo behind, and play with me for a few more days before it's too late." Wei Bao Road. Just started construction, he really hopes that Luo Yangwei will stay for a few more days, there is Jinyiwei, compared to a group of township Zhengjia chiefs, his strength will be superior, if Jinyiwei is gone, and there will be a conflict again, it will be a lot of trouble.

"Well, it's not a problem to stay for two days." Li Chengnei nodded and said, "Did you make sense with those people just now?" Are they still going to fight against their brothers? Otherwise, catch both of them first, and they will be honest. ”

"No, it's all from the villagers, it made sense just now, let's start the wall tomorrow, as long as they don't object to the wall, things will be simpler in the future, let's do it step by step." Wei Bao Road.

"Okay, it's still a brotherhood to do things, I really want to fence off four miles and such a large piece of land to make Weijiazhuang, and there is no such big Zhuangzi in the entire Ming Dynasty!" Li Chengnei said.

"There are a lot of big Zhuangzi, right?" Wei Bao is still a little weak for this matter, if it really becomes the largest manor in the Ming Dynasty, and everyone in the world is red, it will be very troublesome.

"It's nothing if Zhuangzi is older, if you can find the relationship between Grandpa Wei, and one day Your Majesty will be in a good mood and ask for a plaque from the Lord of Long Live Royal, and this Zhuangzi will be justified!" Li Chengnei seemed to see what Wei Bao was afraid of, and took the initiative to help Wei Bao come up with ideas.

In fact, Wei Bao has already thought about this method, if he spends a million taels on a group of Li Zheng and Jia Chang, he might as well throw tens of thousands of taels on the emperor to make it happen, and it is much more cost-effective, "This is not easy to do, silver is nothing, the main thing is this kind of thing, it is not convenient for others to beg Your Majesty on their behalf." You have to say it yourself. I, a common man, where can I have the opportunity to meet Your Majesty? ”

Speaking of this, Wei Bao secretly thought, if you want to develop in the long run, you really have to make achievements on the road to the imperial examination, you can't be an official if you can't be an official in high school, and if you can't be an official, you won't have a chance to meet the emperor! Otherwise, even if there is a relationship between Li Chengne, a relative of the emperor, at most, he will only say that he has the opportunity to meet Concubine Li Zhuang of Dongli, and he can't easily meet the emperor.

"This is also true, it is inconvenient for others to ask for me, but I have the opportunity to see Your Majesty, but if I ask on behalf of my brother, Your Majesty still thinks that I have received a lot of silver from my brother." Li Chengnei said with a smile.

Speaking of silver, Wei Bao immediately took out fifty taels of silver tickets, "Big brother, take this silver ticket." ”

"Hey, brother, I didn't ask you for silver! Who do you think of Big Brother? Li Chengnei immediately waved his hand and said: "Big brother is not short of silver now, besides, you have helped me greet Lord Luo and a group of officials in Yongping Mansion in the past few days, and there is still a lot of silver left." ”

"The silver is also given to the eldest brother, don't worry about me, you are now an adult of a hundred households, and you will have to entertain in the future, I see that my sister-in-law is also very strict with you, and the man himself has no money, how do you live this life?" Wei Bao smiled slightly.

Li Chengnei sneered: "Okay, since my brother said so, the eldest brother accepted it, but the brother will give me the silver if he doesn't move in the future, and the eldest brother will open his mouth if he is really short of silver." ”

"I just know that my eldest brother will not open his mouth until he has to do so, and he will give it, otherwise you may not open his mouth for the rest of your life." Wei Bao laughed.

A group of people are very surprised to see Wei Bao like this, especially Uncle Sun Jiu and Sister Fang, they now know that Wei Bao and Li Chengnei are really good, originally this kind of relationship, especially the difference in status between the two people, everyone is just a short-term combination of interests between officials and businessmen, and now it seems that the two people really have some righteous feelings.

One of them desperately wanted to give the silver, and the other was unwilling to ask for it, this situation, none of these people had ever seen it.

Sun Yuefang saw that Wei Bao was so generous, and he had the courage to spend money like dirt on people who did big things, and she couldn't help but secretly break her heart.

Uncle Sun Jiu saw Sun Yuefang's eyes looking at Wei Bao with tenderness, and his heart was sour, but he had to admit that Wei Bao was really good at being a man, and this was just a 14-year-old person.

"Yuefang, will you leave when you're done eating?" Uncle Sun Jiu urged softly.

Sun Yuefang said strangely: "Dad, why are you urging me to leave again?" Now it's Wei Gongzi who won, right? Didn't you make a bet with Wei Gongzi just now? said that as long as Wei Gongzi wins, I can come to Jinshan to play whenever I want in the future. You go back tomorrow morning, and I'll go back the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. ”

Li Chengnei nodded when he heard this: "Yes, I will testify to Sister Fang'er, what the shopkeeper Sun said just now, we will start construction tomorrow, and see if those gang leaders dare to make trouble, if there are still people who dare to obstruct it, then they really don't want to live." Sister Fang, don't say play for two more days, if you want to play here for a few more days, you will be fine. ”

"That's right, Shopkeeper Sun, you can't talk without words, I can also testify, you just bet, you are not allowed to repay the debt. Sister Fang is a guest I invited to play, I said, if Sister Fang is missing a hair in Jinshan, you will look for me. Fan Xiaolin also smiled.

"Okay, then I'll be cheeky and bother with Wei Gongzi, I won't do business, and I'll play here." Uncle Sun Jiu looked at Wei Bao.

Wei Bao sweated, and said that the old man Sun really spoiled his daughter and really spoiled new tricks, the ancient father was not weaker than the modern father, but he said with joy on his face: "Welcome, welcome, the shopkeeper Sun is welcome to stay with us for as long as you want, and you and my father are chatting again, just to have more fun together." ”

When Uncle Sun Jiu heard this, his old face turned red, he could already see that because he didn't want his daughter to hide contact with Wei Bao, Wei's father Wei Dakang was much colder to him now, and he almost didn't talk to him anymore, where could he talk about it, so Uncle Sun Jiu just nodded and didn't say anything.

Wei Dakang and Huang Ying couldn't help but glance at each other, originally the two of them had a very good impression of Sun Yuefang, but because of Uncle Sun Jiu's relationship, seeing that Uncle Sun Jiu was strongly opposed to his daughter being with Wei Bao, his impression of Sun Yuefang was also discounted, and the poor have a particularly strong self-esteem when they have just become rich.

Seeing this situation, Mr. and Mrs. Fan Lao Pimple and Mr. and Mrs. Wang Zhihui were secretly happy for their respective daughters.

"Dad, you go back to business, I'm such a big person, you have to follow me when I come out to play for two days?" Sun Yuefang pouted.

"What kind of business? If you don't go back, it's a big deal to let Shanhailou close. Uncle Sun Jiu said angrily: "Everyone plays, who can't play?" ”

"Whatever you want." Sister Fang also said angrily. I wanted to go out to play happily for two days, but now it's all disturbed by my father.

Sister Fang is the same as Zhao Jinfeng, sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls, they are all at the beginning of their love, they are older than Wei Bao, and they have not known each other for a long time, and they can't talk about having a relationship with Wei Bao, at most they have a slight affection. More factors that are willing to play with Wei Bao are because they are of the same age and want to play with their peers, and another main reason is Fan Xiaolin, Fan Xiaolin is sharp-toothed, and has a lively personality, is very enthusiastic and active, and they like to play with Fan Xiaolin more.

Wei Bao didn't say anything to Sister Fang alone from beginning to end, and then just drank with Li Chengnei and the two of them, and persuaded Uncle Sun Jiu to drink a glass of wine from time to time.

The next day, Wei Bao got up early.

The sun is rising, the light is shining, and the whole of Liaoxi is shrouded in the warmth of the rising sun.

Xu Rui, Fan Xiaolin and Wang Qiuya already knew that Wei Bao was going to take someone to 'start work' today, and the three daughters also got up very early.

"I don't know if those people will come to make trouble today." Fan Xiaolin asked worriedly.

Wei Bao smiled slightly: "Whether you come to make trouble or not, you always have to start!" ”

Fan Xiaolin smiled and nodded: "Xiaobao said that it will be okay, I will go to Sister Fang now, let her eat early and go to play with us." ”

Wei Bao nodded and smiled, secretly thinking that we are going to play? It's going to work!

Since Wei Bao's internal buildings have been basically completed, they are all wooden buildings, which can temporarily accommodate more than 2,000 people, although they are very crowded, but Wei Bao does not plan to build wooden houses anymore, and in the future, when the population increases, it will definitely build more cost-effective brick buildings.

Wei Bao's subordinates already have a population of more than 3,000 people, most of whom are the labor force he brought back from all over the country, and the male labor force accounts for eighty percent!

Most of these migrant laborers have a skill, and most of them are artisans, otherwise they are homeless offspring from 15 to 20 years old.

The old, weak, women and children are mostly those who were originally in Wei Baojia, and they are mainly arranged in the logistics department to do what they can.

Wei Bao's organizational structure is in the form of corporatization and factoryization, and although his subordinates are still serfs, the organizational structure is clearly different from that of this era. Everyone lives in a 'dormitory', but it is not a 'big pot' format, and everyone is paid independently.

Luo San was stunned and brought everyone out according to Wei Bao's request, and waited in line on the square in Jiazhong early in the morning.

These people are divided into two kinds of formal establishment and temporary establishment, only more than 100 people have obtained the formal establishment, and the rest are temporary, the first group of people brought back from outside the customs, as well as a group of local craftsmen that Wei Bao found from near Shanhaiguan and Funingwei, have mostly become official establishments, and the people who have been added in one after another are temporary establishments.

Wei Bao's ratio requirements for formal and temporary establishment are one to ten, so there is a chance to change from temporary to formal establishment, but the conditions are very harsh, which is also relatively fair, as long as everyone is willing to work hard, can learn specialties, and can convert specialties into achievements in the work, they have the opportunity to become a formal establishment.

Because it is a paramilitary management, even if they are not members of the escort team, these people are still organized into squads, platoons, companies and battalions according to the establishment of the escort team.

The reason why Wei Bao did not use the military system that people in this era are accustomed to is, on the one hand, that he will commit taboos, calling small flag officers, chief flag officers, hundreds of households, thousands of households, and people will have an accident when they hear it, what are you going to do? Do you want to rebel? What right do you have to appoint yourself to office?

In addition, it is also to form an independent system that is different from the military system of this era. From the early days of the construction of the system, it was strictly distinguished from the system of the Ming Dynasty.

Later, these people got used to living within his system, and they couldn't beat them out. Death must remain in his system, this is Wei Bao's original intention to build the Tiandi firm, whether it is to take the imperial examination route or the rebellion route, his system is independent and belongs to him, which is very clear.

After Zhu Yuanzhang unified the whole country, the military system of the Ming Dynasty adopted Liu Ji's suggestion, established the military defense law, and established health centers throughout the country to control the key points. There is a metropolitan governor's office in the center. In the thirteenth year of Hongwu (1380), it was changed to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies (i.e., the center, left, right, front, and rear armies), which was the highest military organ and was in charge of the military registration of the National Guard. Conscription, suppression, training, etc., were under the orders of the military department.

In the event of war, the military department was ordered by the emperor to transfer the army, appoint a leading officer, send a letter to Yin, and lead the army transferred from the guard to the battle.

At the end of the war, the leading officers surrendered the seal to the court, and the officers and soldiers returned to the guard post. This system of separating the power to unify the army from the power to transfer the army, and the system of not having a special army and not a private general, was intended to ensure the emperor's control over the entire army.

In the locality, the capital command and envoy department (referred to as the capital division) is set up, and the commander is placed as the local commander of the army.

Under the capital division, the prefecture (including the prefecture directly under the central government) and the county (prefecture) in the key areas are guarded or set up. The general guard is led by the commander of the guard, and has jurisdiction over 5 thousand households, with a total of 5,600 people; The 1000 households are led by 1000 households, with 10 100 households, with a total of 1,120 people, and the 100 households are led by 100 households, with 2 general banners and a total of 112 people; The general flag has jurisdiction over 5 small flags, with a total of 50 people; Small flag 10 people. In the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu (1393), the national capital division and health office were determined, with a total of 17 capital divisions, 3 Xingdu divisions, 1 left-behind division, 329 internal and external guards, and 65 guards.

The number of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty reached more than 2.7 million at its peak.

The army of the Ming Dynasty was divided into two parts: the Beijing Army (also known as the Beijing Army) and the Local Army.

The Beijing army is the elite of the national guard, guarding the Beijing division in peacetime and the main force in wartime.

In the early years of Hongwu, the Beijing army had 48 guards. Chengzu moved the capital to Beijing, the Beijing division approached the front line, the Beijing army had as many as 72 guards, and the five armies, three thousand, and three major battalions of Shenji were formally established.

In peacetime, the five military battalions practiced the camp formation, the 3,000 battalion commanders patrolled, and the Shenji battalion held firearms, and they drove with them in wartime.

In the future, the Beijing military system will be more relaxed. In addition, there are also guards of the emperor, such as Jinyi Wei and Jinwu, Yulin, Huben, Fu Jun and other 12 guards, as well as Wu Xiang, Teng Xiang, Zuo Wei and Right Guard 4 Guards under the Imperial Horse Guard.

The local army includes the guards, border soldiers and militia.

The garrison was deployed in various important military towns in the interior and in the southeast coastal defense areas. The border soldiers are the garrison troops defending against the Mongolian cavalry in the north, which are deployed in nine military towns from the Yalu River in the east to Jiayuguan in the west, called the "nine sides".

The militia is outside the military status, by the government, to maintain local law and order of the armed forces, the interior is called the people, the brave or archers, the machine soldiers, the fast hand, the northwest border is called the native soldiers, the southwest minority areas have Miao soldiers, wolf soldiers and other Tusi soldiers. In addition, there are miners, salt soldiers, monk soldiers (Shaolin soldiers, Wutai soldiers) formed by different industries and classes, etc., in case of war, they are often called out to fight, and they still return to their original sites after the war.

The guards were mainly infantry and cavalry, and there were also naval divisions on the southeast coast. The government once ordered Fujian, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang coastal guards to build ships to resist the Japanese, so that the naval division has achieved great development.

The weapons and equipment of the guards were not only well-made with cold weapons such as knives, bows and arrows, guns and crossbows, but also firearms, which accounted for a large proportion, and bronze guns, iron guns, mines, and various types of artillery began to equip the troops.

The central authorities have also set up two bureaus, the military and the ordnance, which are responsible for casting firearms. The provincial capital departments and health offices have also set up miscellaneous manufacturing bureaus to take charge of the weapons repair of the guards.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Wei army mainly came from the "conscription army" that followed Zhu Yuanzhang's uprising, the "annexed army" that surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty and the separatist forces, the "enthroned army" that was reprimanded for crimes, and the "Duoji army" that suppressed the enlistment of civilian households.

"Stacking and gathering" was originally a method of suppressing and allocating households to supplement the army when there was a shortage of troops, and it became the main way to collect the guards after the imperial court issued the "Stacking Order".

According to the provisions of the "Stacking Order", 3 households are 1 unit, of which 1 household is called the main household, and the rest are the households.

After Yongle, the strong men of the main household and the sticker took turns to replace the army.

The military and civilians are strictly separated. The families of the army are all registered in the army, called military households, which belong to the governor's office, are not subject to the control of local administrative officials, and are exempted from a single errand, and their status and economic status are different from those of civilian households.

Military households are fixed to undertake military service, and their fathers and sons succeed them, serving as soldiers for generations, and accompanying the army to live in designated guard posts. If the entire family of a military household dies or flees, the government will send personnel to their hometown to make up for their relatives or replace them, which is called "Gou Army" or "Qing Army".

The Wei army implemented the tuntian system. According to the regulations, the border army guards the city in three points and the tun in seven points; The inland army is divided into two to defend the city, and eight is divided into tun. Each soldier was given a share of land, and the government provided cattle, farm tools, and seeds, and levied grain according to the portion.

During the period from Hongwu to Yongle, there were about 900,000 hectares of military tuns in the country. In addition to a large number of military cantonments, commercial cantonments were also implemented as a means of subsidy, that is, according to the "open up the Chinese law," merchants recruited people to reclaim land in the border areas and pay grain to supplement military rations.

The people below Wei Bao are planned according to the system he has compiled himself, with about 10 people in a squad, three squads in a platoon, three platoons in a company, plus a cooking squad and other service support soldiers, a little more than 100 people.

One battalion has three companies, one regiment has three battalions, one brigade has three regiments, one division has three brigades, and there are more than 10,000 people in one division.

Of course, at present, they are all squad units, and the escort team is only equivalent to a platoon, with Madman Tan and Hou San in charge. At present, it is only called the team leader and deputy team, and it sounds like it is just a team made up by a powerful township rich man to come out to see the family care home, and it will not attract people's attention.

In Wei Bao's escort team, there is also a platoon controlled by Lin Wenbiao, which is currently equal to two platoons, and Lin Wenbiao's platoon, Wei Bao is intended to be used to develop into a statistical bureau and an agency specializing in intelligence gathering.

The escort team in charge of Madman Tan and Hou San will be separated in the future and will be divided into three parts.

Tan Maniac was the captain of Wei Bao's guard, and Hou San would be used as an army field unit, and given the topography of the north, it was mainly cavalry, incorporating infantry characteristics. Chang Wuye is mainly responsible for the defense of Jiazhong, and also teaches Wei Bao's martial arts, and compiles several simple and practical sets of kung fu to teach to the soldiers as a garrison. At that time, the field troops will mainly be supplemented by outstanding personnel from the garrison units.

Now these are just Wei Bao's ideas, and they can't be called garrisons, at most they are a combination of militia and labor.

Wei Bao looked at the more than 2,500 laborers who were not neatly arranged, but they were like that, and he was very satisfied and ready to speak.

Fan Xiaolin accompanied Sister Fang and Uncle Sun Jiu over.

Sister Fang and Uncle Sun Jiu came yesterday, although they knew that there were a lot of people in Wei Bao, but they didn't expect so many people? In these days, no matter how big a person is, it is only about 200 people, and no matter how big a mile is, it is only 1,000 to 2,000 people, and 3,000 people is impossible.

Sister Fang and Uncle Sun Jiu visually inspected it, Wei Bao has more than 2,500 laborers in one A? In addition, the old and weak women and children who stood around and didn't have to come in to line up were also people in Wei Baojia, together, there were almost 3,500 people, right?

"It turns out that Wei Bao's armor has so many people?" Uncle Sun Jiu couldn't help but exclaim.

"These are all Wei Gongzi's men?" Sister Fang asked.

"Well, it's all Xiaobao's people." Fan Xiaolin smiled slightly: "We are all domestic slaves of the Xiaobao family now. ”

"Oh." Sister Fang let out a happy sigh, full of joy. For Wei Bao's impression, it was refreshed again every minute, and I felt that Wei Bao was very capable, and he could manage so many people at such a young age.

She is only in charge of more than 20 Shanhailou guys, so she often feels tired and tired, and she doesn't know what method Wei Bao uses, she can manage so many people, and these people seem to be very well-behaved.

Uncle Sun Jiu secretly thought, no wonder those Li Zheng and the first leaders are like great enemies, and one Li in Jinshan is not as many as half of Wei Bao's first one, you are all like one can fight, it's strange that they are not nervous. At the same time, he was also secretly surprised by Wei Bao's management ability, how did a 14-year-old boy manage so many people obediently?

"How did these people come here? Why are there so many people," Sister Fang asked softly.

"They are all refugees from all over the world." Fan Xiaolin replied: "Xiaobao has a good heart, and he can't see anyone freezing to death and starving to death, and he is homeless. ’

"Wei Gongzi is so good." Sister Fang nodded.

In fact, these people under Wei Bao now have the strength to single-handedly challenge the number of strong men in the labor force of the four miles, and even exceed the actual number of strong men in the four miles.

When Zhao Liquan and Zhao Kehu led people to kidnap Sister Fang to make trouble, Wei Bao's armor only dispatched the escort team and the aborigines of this armor.

If you send all the people out, you can take away all the strong men in the four miles at that time. It's just that Luo San didn't get Wei Bao's order at that time, and he didn't dare to call people out to fight casually, for fear that there would be too many people and cause a large-scale group fight between the two sides.

"As long as everyone works hard, everyone has a chance to be in the full-fledged establishment." Wei Bao didn't talk much, he didn't like to say some big words, the system itself has a strong function of restricting training, after speaking, Wei Bao glanced at the crowd and waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”

Today's task is to pull everyone out and punch out the four lines of the city wall that are separated from the outside world, mark them on the preset wall line of hundreds of kilometers, and then dig out the foundation.

Building the city wall requires cement, lime, sand, and bricks, and Wei Bao knows these in his heart, and he has a large number of stonemasons under him, and there is no problem in laying the foundation.

If it is an ancient city wall, it is made of large stones to polish into a boxy masonry, which not only consumes materials, but also consumes a lot of manpower, how long is the whole Great Wall? If Wei Bao's 100-kilometer city wall is 10,000 people according to the ancient speed, he will do nothing, and he will use it to build the city wall, and he will not want to complete it in 20 years.

At this stage, digging the foundation is digging a ditch, and Wei Bao's standard for the city wall is that it can be eight meters high, and it does not need to be too high, so as not to arouse suspicion. The thickness is very thick, 9 meters wide at the bottom and 5 meters wide at the top. In order to meet the standard of occupancy, the garrison troops will live directly in the city defense in the future.

Wei Bao rode on a black tall horse, and Fan Xiaolin and Wang Qiuya had now also learned to ride a horse, and they followed Wei Bao on horseback.

Although Sister Fang doesn't know how to ride a horse, she has Wei Bao's entourage leading the horse, so she also rides on the horse.

Uncle Sun Jiu, Father Wei, Fan Lao Pimple, Wang Zhihui, Li Chengne, and Luo San were stunned and everyone followed behind Wei Bao.

"The work of digging a trench and digging the foundation is not huge, and it is expected that it will take to complete the project by dividing people into 25 brigades of 100 people each?" Wei Bao asked a stonemason beside him, he had already drawn the drawings, and told the stonemason that if he surrounded the four li in it, the territory could be as big as he could, and the craftsman knew that it would take more than 200 li of the city wall in total.

"The foundation can be dug in ten days, mainly because the bricks are difficult to get, and it takes big stone bricks to build the wall." The stonemason replied.

Wei Bao smiled slightly: "Well, after ten days, I will redistribute the manpower, and when the time comes, I will show you that you can build a stronger and more incorruptible city wall without large stone bricks." ”

The stonemason and everyone were very curious, and they all wanted to know if Wei Gongzi could build a stronger city wall without using large stone bricks, and it would not be bad for a thousand years?

Uncle Sun Jiu didn't know what Wei Bao was going to do, but now he saw Wei Bao leading everyone to the beach, walking from one end to the other, and constantly leaving a brigade to dig the foundation, only then did he understand how long Wei Bao's city wall had to be built!

"You come with me today!" Uncle Sun Jiu whispered to Sister Fang: "This Wei Bao is too ambitious, and it is too dangerous here!" ”
