Chapter 140: The Diggers
(Recommended reading: Hundred-year-old trees are cut down, tree roots are dug up, gravel, sealed soil are all transported away, under the encouragement of high-ranking officials and Houlu, the project is progressing very fast, because the working face is relatively narrow, three thousand people will line up in a neat queue, take turns, as long as the people in front of them are a little lacking in strength, the back will be immediately replaced, and the newly baked 'touch gold captain' weasel is the commander-in-chief of the project, his 'yin and yang shovel' points there, and people dig there!
As the excavation surface continues to deepen, there are artificially chiseled stones, and some broken dragon pattern tiles have been unearthed, which shows that their choice is not wrong, and sure enough, when the 'yin and yang shovel' in the hand of the yellow squirrel poked into the soil again, a huge hard object appeared - broken dragon stone!
'Broken Dragon Stone' is specially used to block the entrance of the mausoleum, not only the stone is extremely hard, and the weight is generally more than 1,000 catties, once it falls, it means that the two worlds of yin and yang are cut off, and it is difficult to open!
As for the broken dragon stone of the tomb of King Liang Xiao, it is even more amazing, as high as two zhang, more than one zhang wide, the depth is unfathomable, and it is conservatively estimated that there must be tens of thousands of catties, plus it is just stuck in the middle of the mountain rock, and manpower is absolutely impossible to open!
"What a spirit! Good means! "Encountering difficulties, the yellow squirrel did not flinch at all, but a face of excitement, others are for the gold and silver jewelry in the mausoleum, and he is for the challenge, and hundreds of years ago, designed and supervised the master of this mausoleum, you can prevent it, I can steal, see who is better!
"What's not to be done? I don't know how they did it! Looking at this giant broken dragon stone, Xiao Yi also stuck out his little tongue, he really couldn't imagine how people placed such heavy stones in ancient times without lifting equipment, did they ask Jin Jia Lux to help?
"Sand stacking! …… They first chiseled boulders from the top of the hillside, and then spread quicksand under them, and let it slide down on its own little by little, which was really a good means, and the route calculation was even more accurate and abnormal! "The weasel is worthy of being a genius in the tomb robbery world, just looking at the surrounding terrain and traces, he immediately understood the opponent's method.
The road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high; If you can get a boulder in the way, I'll be able to move it out of the way!"
"Someone, set up dry firewood, and burn it for me! Fire and water are indestructible, try the ancient method left by the ancestor today! ”
"Everything is under the command of the weas!"
A large amount of dry firewood was quickly transported, densely placed outside the Broken Dragon Stone, and then the fire burst into flames......
"Weasel, you're such a genius, come on, prepare cold water!" Seeing this, how could Xiao Yi still not understand his intentions, this is a typical principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction, using the difference between high and low temperature to change the internal structure of the object, so as to destroy this hard broken dragon stone!
"Don't dare! Can't! The villain's means can't hide the general's eyes! "The yellow squirrel was even more surprised in his heart, this method of 'water and fire' is a secret in his master's sect, but he didn't expect that he had just used half a move, Xiao Yi understood it all, no wonder people are too guards, generals, it's really smart God!
"It's nothing, I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants!" No matter how thick-skinned Xiao Yi was, Xiao Yi didn't dare to take the credit for himself, and at this time he was silently praying in his heart, "Thank you for the nine-year compulsory education, thank me to my physics teacher, thank you Newton, thank you Galileo ......"
"Giants? Also on the shoulder? Could it be that the general's ancestors are the legendary 'Kuafu giants'? …… Oh my God! The speaker was unintentional, listening to the intention, the weasel immediately set off a monstrous wave in his heart~~
The fire burned for more than an hour, and when the Broken Dragon Stone was slightly red from the barbecue, the weasel ordered - splash water!
Because the temperature was too high to approach, everyone had to pour cold water from the hillside and let it flow down the mountain to the Broken Dragon Stone!
"Snort...... Laugh at! "When the water and fire met, there was immediately billowing smoke, straight into the sky, and then people heard the sound of crackling beans, from small to to, more and more dense, and finally with a loud noise, the 'broken dragon stone' weighing 10,000 catties shattered into countless small pieces, scattered all over the ground, revealing an unfathomable tomb road......
The first gate of the mausoleum has finally opened!
"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! "After winning the first battle, the surrounding sergeants all cheered, in their opinion, opening such a giant 'Broken Dragon Stone' is not inferior to killing the enemy on the battlefield, and even has a greater sense of success.
"Fool, don't you want to die!" Kicking back a few soldiers who were going to break in, although the yellow squirrel was very happy, but he did not get carried away, hundreds of miles of ancient tombs, there must be a thick miasma inside, isn't it looking for death if you break in like this; "Wait for half an hour, let the mountain breeze blow in, and find another flock of sheep, and let them explore the way in front later!"
The Broken Dragon Stone is only the first level of the mausoleum, and I don't know how many traps are hidden in it, such as falling rocks, quicksand, hidden arrows, and traps...... There are definitely too many to count!
Seeing that the weasel commanded quite orderly, Xiao Yi retreated and sat with Cao Cao with confidence, and the two exchanged opinions while drinking a little wine to resist the severe cold in the mountains.
Xiao Yi has already seen the huge role of the weasel and their centaurs, not only robbing tombs to obtain gold, but also digging trenches on the battle array, building fortresses, and even digging holes in the ground, and sneaking up on the enemy camp can play a huge role!
Cao Cao completely agrees with this point of view, the art of war is cloudy, 'to coincide, to win', if you want to win the war, in addition to strong soldiers and strong horses, some special means are also indispensable, completely rely on the right light to fight, that is a stupid pig, in addition to he also gave this army a very nice name--- digging army!
Digging, is the meaning of digging, son, is to take the zodiac in the sub-rat, Cao Cao is hoping that this army can be like a drill mouse, elusive, hidden and invisible!
In this way, a special military brigade that shocked this era was born, and the yellow squirrel became its first commander, and its name went down in history!
Later, some historians commented that Cao Cao was able to quickly sweep away the heroes and unify the north in more than ten years, among which the 'digging army' contributed a lot, they were not as invincible as the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, nor were they fearless in the camp, and there were no loyal ministers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, but they were almost active in all the large-scale battles in the Three Kingdoms era.
Under their shovels, Xiongguan collapsed, the fortified city fell, and there was no trace of stealth, and they could always launch an attack at the most incredible time and in the most incredible place, this is the Diggers Army!
After half an hour of mountain wind, the yellow squirrel ordered someone to throw a few torches into the tomb, and seeing that the flames were not extinguished, he ordered to drive a dozen goats into it to explore the way, and he himself took dozens of soldiers with experience in tomb robbery to follow up with torches, ropes, and tools!
The tomb was twisted and crooked, and after a few turns, they could not be seen, as if they had been swallowed by a giant beast, and only the bell that came out did not indicate that they were safe and sound......
"Even if you were an emperor and general during your lifetime, you still can't sleep peacefully after death!" Seeing the yellow squirrel and others enter, Cao Cao was happy and worried, happy that a large number of gold, silver and jewelry were about to arrive, and the people of Yanzhou could be saved from hunger; I'm worried that if I dig someone's grave today, will his own mausoleum be stolen and dug up in the same day?
"Huh! That's because the human heart is too greedy! ”
"Oh, you mean grave robbers are greedy?"
"No, I mean the tomb owner is too greedy!" Xiao Yi pointed to the mausoleum and said, "These emperors were not satisfied with all the glory and wealth during their lifetimes, and they even brought these to the ground to continue to enjoy, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques and jade, as well as beautiful palace beauties, and countless good things for burial, but they didn't know that it was these that brought them disasters, the mausoleum was tragically excavated, and the bones were exposed to the wilderness, what are you trying to do!" ”
"That's right, it's the lack of people's hearts! If there were no jewels in it, even if it was only buried with a thin layer of sealed soil, who would disturb the sleeping of the dead? Cao Cao felt the same way, maybe he could choose a thin burial in the future, so that no one would make up his mind; There is also a secret that must be buried, so that no one can find themselves and sleep peacefully for 10,000 years......
"Ah...... It's a dragon,...... White...... Dragon! With a frightened shout, dozens of people who had just entered rushed out, everyone was terrified, and several even peed their pants in fright, which could scare these experienced old tomb robbers like this, which showed how much fear they encountered, and then the goats also bleated and ran out, but there seemed to be a few less!
"Protect Cao Gong, I'll take a look!" Xiao Yi stepped forward and walked forward with a sword in his hand, and then a large group of personal soldiers guarded Cao Cao's group, and Xu Chu was even a close guard with a 'sawtooth broadsword' in his hand, no matter what, Cao Cao couldn't be allowed to have an accident, even if they all died!
"Don't panic, what's wrong?" will be the courage of the soldiers, and the appearance of Xiao Yat gradually calmed down the panicked crowd.
"Back to the general, there is a monster inside, very similar to a dragon, entrenched in the depths of the tomb, the goats that explored the way just now were swallowed by it one by one, and the brothers were so frightened that they ran out ......", the yellow squirrel is more experienced, and there are many strange things encountered underground, although it is panicked, but it can also give back some information!
"Dragons?" Xiao Yi was excited, could it be that there really be such a divine object in this world, "Let's go, go and see, if there is really Brother Long, he will capture it, take it back to the exhibition, and make a fortune with tickets?" ”
"Ahh Capture the dragon? ……”
