Chapter 186: Demon Reform Defense
Zhao Xin specially prepared drawings for the expansion of the residence, he is not a civil engineering department, nor has he studied design drawing, and even the painting is tortuous, really to draw professional drawings, these Northern Song Dynasty masons, can't understand it.

In fact, in ancient China, there was no standard drawing, even in the future, Zheng He's big ship to the West was only a little sketched basic appearance, without standardization, which may be the fundamental reason why many ancient Chinese inventions have not been handed down.
Ancient craftsmen only rely on words and deeds, there is a big omission, know what it is, do not know why, plus the general craftsmen, in order to ensure that there is no teaching apprentice starvation to death of the master's tragic situation, often leave a hand, sometimes, to death, will be taught, sometimes, simply get sick urgently, the secret, completely into the soil, several times, China's own outstanding technology in history, become lost, or hundreds of years later, by the geniuses, with other methods to develop, named other names.
Sometimes, Zhao Xin, who studies history, opens up one after another once-prestigious inventions, such as hemp steel, such as Tang knives, these steels that have been famous in the Tang Dynasty, even if they are handed down, it is good that in modern times, even iron is not enough, let alone steel.
Such an invention, more than one, several times, several reincarnations, coupled with the change of the court and some inaction of the dynasty, finally, in modern times, completely backward, was taught a hard lesson, the Chinese nation appeared in a hundred years of humiliation.
Although the drawings are simple, everything is remembered in Zhao Xin's mind, he mainly studies the history of the Song Dynasty, but about the Song Dynasty, and even the Chinese world history before and after, he still has to dabble, and even because of his hobbies, he often goes to some online military and historical forums to discuss some topics about Guan Gong and Qin Qiong.
Longbow sprouted on a military forum, and eventually became one of the hobbies, I have never eaten pork, and I have never seen a pig run.
Defense, to put it bluntly, is to create obstacles for the attacker, the more obstacles, the greater the strength of the defense, and when it comes to small-scale tactics, it is to use unique defenses to create regional advantages.
That's right, the essence of war is a game of numbers, initially, it was only the advantage of numbers, and later, it was extended to training, equipment, morale and many other aspects, but generally speaking, if you add everything together, those who have the advantage can win, this is the simplest truth.
Defending the city, there are not as many ways to attack and defend in the field, and even because of the help of city defense, soldier quality training and many other aspects, you can ignore it, and you can only use simple addition and subtraction.
Relying on some rough impressions of browsing countless military websites in later generations, combined with this principle, the magic reform plan for the Miaojiazhuang mansion was successfully released, and it was still the kind of crazy magic reform.
In Zhao Xin's final drawings after several drafts, the area of the main house will be expanded by 4 times, from more than 30 acres now to 120 acres, accounting for almost one-seventh of the entire Miaojiazhuang.
The area has been quadrupled, in addition to the reserved area next to the residence, it also includes a large number of private houses, near the main house, because it is close to the main house, the main ones are of high status, for example, Miao Yuan's house, and some of the village is highly respected.
Their house is larger, expanding by about 90 acres, but it only involves more than 40 households, with an average of more than 2 acres per household.
For their resettlement, Zhao Xin has already made a number of two-story small bungalows on a 17-acre vacant land on the side of Miaojiazhuang, which are common two-story small buildings in later China and urban villages, but in this era, they are synonymous with high-end.
The flat square, two-storey small building, on the area above, has improved a lot, before using tiles, the reason is very simple, the strength of the yellow mud is not enough to support the bungalow, not enough to support the overall structure.
It is necessary to use beams, bricks, etc., so most of the buildings are often one floor, and there are very few two or three floors, unless it is something like a tower or a star platform, with a small span, but it can be replaced by something else, such as a wooden structure.
The reinforced concrete structure of the bungalow, not only the texture is more solid, but also the appearance is quite beautiful, this is the root of their establishment, as for their agreement or disagreement, there are seedlings far away, they only have more than 40 households, as long as they do a good job, no problem.
Of course, 120 acres can't all be buildings, this is too big, the main change of the whole is the original main house, next to these, will do some sporadic design, for example, will build some tall turrets and bunkers, as external defense, the rest, is the vision.
The field of vision is very important, if it is said that in the dense main house, erect a twenty or thirty meters high blockhouse, if the house next to it has 4 meters, it is equivalent to saying that the blockhouse has been reduced by 4 meters out of thin air, which is equivalent to useless work, plus these houses, can be dismantled, as ammunition for engineering equipment, no need to mine stones and the like, it is not conducive to defense.
No way, you can't tear everything down, Zhao Xin is at the moment, it is unlikely, to build a defensive building outside, in the stall where the militia has passed and the assessment will be carried out within a few days, I think the Wang family will definitely come to monitor, build the main house, even if it is a little higher, against the huge backdrop of Miaojiazhuang, as long as it is not close, it is unlikely to know, outside, it is too conspicuous.
Regarding the matter of demolition, as soon as he found Miao Yuan, Miao Yuan readily agreed, he was the first to set an example, the first to move out of his house, first to a bungalow crowded, ancient, strict hierarchical concept and Miao Jiazhuang belonging, and finally promoted the smooth progress of this demolition action.
From more than 30 acres, expanded to 120 acres, this is a terrible action, not to mention, Zhao Xin is also ready to expand the construction area several times, you know, before it was only a 6-meter-high city wall, plus the internal buildings are not particularly dense, now, the overall fortress, at least 30 meters high, this is 5 times more, all kinds of rooms and buildings, also dense, only dense, can withstand high-intensity attacks.
Dense drawings, everyone who looks at it is dizzy, the materials used, of course, are cement, the emergence of cement, solves the most critical problem on the building, under the premise that the output of cement is temporarily unstable, a part of the cement will be provided to strengthen the defense of the entire Miaojiazhuang.
I can't understand the drawings, but Zhao Xin said the project, Sun Ji knows, for this, of course Sun Ji will not object, it is the current cement pier, it can be seen that the effect of this cement is very outstanding, but there are some things, not personal experiments, how can it verify its strength?
Walking through the battlefield, Sun Ji, who clearly knows that defense plays an important role in a war, will always know that only by trying it in person can he try to see if he can test whether he can do it.
A small cement pier can prove something, and only when it really becomes a city defense can it show its strength.
He readily agreed to Zhao Xin's request, even if deep down, he felt that there was not much need to do so.
But Zhao Xin wants it, and Miao Jiazhuang also has this money, even Miao Yuan doesn't care much, what else can he say.
I thought it was to persuade, but I didn't expect it to be so easy, Zhao Xin still didn't change from his status, this is a feudal society, a feudal society with a huge disparity in status, Zhao Xin's public identity is the fourth young master of Miaojiazhuang, that is to say, since he came, the Miao family has handed over everything in Miaojiazhuang to him.
If he wants, he can demolish all the Miaojiazhuang, there is no problem, as long as Zhao Xin can appease the villagers of Miaojiazhuang, he can do it.
Now, he is just doing his hands and feet in the mansion, which is completely controlled by Zhao Xin, he is only partially modified, not completely pushed to rebuild, just adding some arrow towers and the like, and even the main structure of the courtyard will not change too much.
In the magic reform of Zhao Xin's drawings, the first is the periphery, the city wall of the courtyard is not low, it is also double-sided bricks, more than 6 meters high, and there are some arrow towers and the like, which are used to prevent bandits, or small-scale troops, which is absolutely enough, and the tall courtyard walls and arrow towers are enough for the regular army below 300 to drink on the spot in front of this house.
However, the double-sided brick courtyard wall, under the engineering equipment, is too wasteful, not to mention such a thing as rushing the car, a few people holding a huge log, can rush him away.
Since it is a city defense, then 1.5 meters thick, there is a certain gap in it, and the total thickness of the courtyard wall exceeds 5 meters, which is to be used, which means that the outermost periphery of the entire courtyard, build a 5-meter-thick city wall, this city wall will turn a circle, completely enclose the position of the original mansion.
Based on the original wall, the outermost part is about 20 meters high, which is the simplest in the whole drawing, in fact, the mansion in the future, will completely become a fortress, on the basis of the courtyard wall 20 meters high and 5 meters thick, and then divided into non-stop stairs, layer by layer increased to the inner circle of 30 meters, about divided into 3 layers.
This is already a simple fortress posture, the 20-meter-high city wall, itself in this era, is already quite a terrible line of defense, you know, even a super fortress like Bianliang, the height of the city wall is only 8 meters, plus the arrow tower above, the female wall and other appendages, will not exceed 15 meters, such a city wall, immediately doubled, it can be said that the magic reform is crazy.
This is not the most terrifying part of the magic reform, the 20-meter-high city wall is only a part of the overall defense, so that the attacker is not so easy to approach, and it is not easy to break through, the real terrible thing is that after crossing the city wall, even if there are only a few drawings, even if it is just Zhao Xin to say it simply, but after reading the drawings, it appeared in his heart, and Sun Ji, who had been in battle for a long time, couldn't help but shudder, is this a defense, this is simply a vicious organ everywhere.
