Chapter 399

"Half an hour to bring this stone wall down? However, with this bit of manpower and these equipment, it is a bit difficult to bring this thing down, let alone half an hour, even if they are given a day, they will not be able to do it. ”

Wang Yang looked at the demolition team of the Great Song Forbidden Army who were busy smashing the wall and whispered.

It's not that I despise them, but this stone wall is really hard to destroy, after all, even if this thing is a weakened version of reinforced concrete, it is also an extremely difficult thing to tear down.

Even if the demolition team of later generations wants to demolish similar to cement stone pillars and cement frames, they have to use those large-scale demolition machinery, otherwise they want to rely on manual demolition, and they are afraid that it will be difficult to kill a three-foot square cement giant pillar in ten days and half a month.

Moreover, this is not a column, but a concrete wall with a thickness of one meter, and even if it is a large machine with an internal combustion engine, it will take a lot of effort to tear down this strong and thick wall.

Seeing Wang Yang talking and laughing with Chen Andao there so easily, he didn't care at all about the soldiers of the forbidden army who were tired and smelly and pounded their teeth and tinkered with the stone wall there.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but be eager in his heart, even the slippery pebbles were almost completely integrated after using cement, and they were so strong and smashable.

I'm afraid that the city wall built with blue bricks is not so powerful, and I think that if it is the border fortress of the Great Song Dynasty in the northern Xinjiang, it is so strong. So how can those Western Xia, Liao and others have the opportunity to easily break the Great Song Dynasty border fortress?

Well, another quarter of an hour has passed, and the wall is still standing, doesn't that tell the story?

Although those forbidden soldiers still did not give up, it was enough to see from the potholes that were knocked out that even if they were given half an hour more, I was afraid that this stone wall would not be able to fall.

Although everyone could see that the continuation of the generals of the forbidden army was only in vain, everyone still waited patiently until the end of half an hour.

In the end, the forbidden army general who had just gone into battle shirtless to push the city cart could only helplessly walk up to Gao Taotao to give the order. "Weichen pleads to Niangniang, this stone wall is too strong, unless I wait for another day, otherwise, I am afraid that there is no way to destroy it."

Gao Tao's gaze fell on Wang Yang and asked. "Wang Qingjia, what are the defects of this cement? Is there any way to make it collapse in the shortest possible time? ”

"This, Weichen has no good way, he can only continue to use brute force to damage, after all, this is not a mud wall, he is not afraid of water at all, as for the fire ......" Wang Yang is also very helpless, what is called construction waste in later generations, cement ballast is construction waste.

"Moreover, even after being smashed, if you use these scraps and mix them with a blended cement mortar to make up for them, after they dry in the shade, it can almost be said that they can reach a good state."

“…… I see. Gao Tao nodded, no longer asking Wang Yang, but his eyes fell on the dejected general of the forbidden army.

"General Li doesn't matter, since it won't work for half an hour, then you will continue to think of a way, when this wall is smashed and knocked down, the heavy reward promised to you by the mourning family will be given to you. Ladies and gentlemen, let's go. Gao Tao said as he looked at the scarred wall, which still stands.

Okay, this thing is indeed very sturdy, but the problem is that this is outside the Yuehua Gate, and it is generally an empty square outside the Rihua Gate, but now that such a stone wall is erected here, it really feels too discordant if it is not destroyed, and the important thing is that it hinders the feng shui of the Great Song Dynasty.

Left those forbidden army soldiers and let them find their own ways to be demolition teams, and a cadre of civil and military ministers returned to the Wende Hall with Gao Tao.

The ministers had already recovered from the shock of Fang Cai, but everyone looked at Wang Yang with envy or jealousy.

How old is this kid? First of all, he made a sensation in Bianliang's Yuanyou printing, and now, although Yuanyou printing has not yet been popularized.

However, the speed at which the Royal Commercial Press printed books, even if the Royal Commercial Press currently only accepts orders from the imperial court, really frightened the bookstore owners in the entire Bianliang area.

The books in the hands of booksellers have also begun to decline in an orderly manner, and a set of "Analects" that used to cost five yuan is now almost falling to the same price.

made those scholars praise one after another, thinking that this was the credit of Yuanyou printing, but where did they think that Yuanyou printing had not spread at all, if the Son of Heaven announced the announcement of Yuanyou printing, I don't know what level the price of those books that were extremely cherished in the past would fall.

It was precisely because of the protection of the printing industry of the Great Song Dynasty, coupled with Wang Yang's persuasion, that the Great Song Dynasty could print a large number of Buddhist scriptures and other things, and quietly sell them to the Western Xia and Liao States to make money, so the Son of Heaven agreed to continue to hide the Yuan You printing technique first.

Not to mention Yuanyou printing, just talk about this Yuanyou cement, its solidity has actually exceeded the cognition of those veterans who have fought in Shacheng.

It is believed that once this kind of cement can be applied to the construction of the border fort of the Great Song Dynasty, it will inevitably make the border village of the Great Song Dynasty impregnable.

In the case of the lack of cavalry in the Great Song Dynasty, being able to defend the enemy with a strong city defense was originally what every military general of the Great Song Dynasty wanted to see the most.

"Does this need to be boiled beforehand?"

"No, you just need to transport it to the construction site, add a certain proportion of water and sand and lime and stir."

"In addition, in addition to this kind of cement, there is another kind of fast-drying cement, which can speed up the setting speed by almost half, and is most suitable for emergency construction and stacking projects, but the firmness of that kind of cement is worse than this."

"You mean, two catties of cement like this is only three pennies? How many catties did you spend on building this section of the wall? ”

"It's about 300 pounds. Calculated to be about 900 wen. ”

"Isn't there any drawback to this thing?"

"Yes, that is, this Yuanyou cement is not resistant to moisture, so it must be packaged and transported in oily paper bags, and after use, the bag mouth should be tightly tied to prevent moisture in the air from entering. Otherwise, it is easy to dry up and knot together, like a complete stone. ”

"The north has always been bitterly cold, and there is no need to worry about too much humidity in that place." A military general who had been in northern Xinjiang said.

"Another reason is that it needs to be mixed with water and mud when it is used, so it cannot be used when the weather is too cold and frozen. Because in this case, the water will precipitate, and it will not be able to mix well with the Yuanyu cement, and it will slowly solidify. ”

"That's a nuisance......"

"What's this, no matter how cold it is in the north, it will only freeze in three or four months, as long as it doesn't start in the cold winter, it's over."

One minister after another asked questions, and Wang Yang responded one by one without the slightest panic. Zhao Xu was very satisfied, listening to the Q&A between Wang Yang and those generals who were familiar with military strategy, and how happy he was in his heart.

Talent, this is called talent, the pillar of the country, and the talent of the country. Look at the "Theory of Juvenile China" made by others, I don't know how many young people have used it as a life motto to flaunt themselves.

As for the martial arts...... Well, the dignified martial champion all let this literary champion lie down, which shows that his ability is really very civil and military, and he is very complete.
