Chapter 320: The Huns are coming

Sima Xiu walked away arrogantly, and he left Cloud City.

Before leaving, Yan Ming took a Yan knife and gave it to Sima Xiu.

Sima Xiu is a person with life pursuits, he is a person with goals, lofty ambitions and ideals. His great ideal is to sleep with Shan Yu's Yan family.

Yan Ming is a teacher, and one of the greatest attributes of a teacher is to help students find the path to achieve their dreams. Sima Xiu's ideal, Yan Ming thinks it's worth a try. There's a risk of losing your head, but it's totally worth it.

Standing on the tower and seeing Sima Xiu's lonely figure, Yan Ming couldn't help but sigh that anyone who has an unusual pursuit of life is alone.

Sima Xiu left.

Among the women who came from Shuo Fang, many wanted to give birth to Sima Xiu. A man who can sleep with a Xiongnu aristocratic woman is naturally extraordinary. While the charm is extraordinary, it also shows that the kung fu is extraordinary.

This kind of thing can only be understood but not spoken.

Sima Xiu, this enigmatic coquettish man, in a short period of time, actually conquered most of the women in Shuofang.

Standing on the tower, not only can you see Sima Xiu's figure walking alone, gradually moving away, but also see almost the entire entire Cloud City.

In the east, next to the big blister in the city, is the military factory that Yan Ming values the most. Responsible for the production of fire mines.

In the south, a large amount of cement is being transported from the south gate. Blue bricks and rubble are piled up under the walls to the north. The dilapidated walls began to be repaired.

Lao Xu and the craftsmen first selected a small gap in the city wall, and the foundation had been dug. All that remains is the city wall with cement and grey bricks.

Lao Xu had experience in the construction of Maolingyi, and after preparing people to build simple scaffolding with wooden shelves, he began to build this piece of the city wall.

Fan Li and other old defenders had never seen this kind of construction method, and they shook their heads when they saw Lao Xu mixing the cement almost flowing.

Is it possible to build a city with this gray thing that resembles mud soup?

Not only Fan Li, but also the people of Cloud City also came to watch and watch Lao Xu and them build Cloud City. Watch them place the green bricks layer by layer on the city foundation, then sprinkle a layer of cement, and then pave a layer of green bricks. In this way, under their watching, a new section of the blue brick city wall was connected with the original old city wall. Soon the dilapidated city wall was connected.

"It's strange that this muddy soup can stick to the green bricks. However, looking at the careful appearance of these craftsmen, it is estimated that it will take a long time to dry. Fan Li and the others discussed privately.

After all, the cement was so wet compared to the building materials they had seen that it would take ten days and a half to dry.

This section of the city wall is not very wide, and it took Lao Xu and them a day to build it.

In the evening, a blue brick wall is connected to the earthen walls on both sides to form a new wall.

Everyone gathered around to look at the new city wall, admiring and doubting. It's more about discussing, when the city wall is dry, will it be stronger than the original.

You must know that it took a lot of processes to build such an earthen wall. What filling, trampling, ramming......

But Lao Xu, they just used cement to brush some green bricks and lay them a little bit, which didn't look difficult at all. This is also too fast compared to the previous meticulous workmanship. No wonder people wonder how strong the walls were.

Yan Ming and Lao Xu didn't listen to anything, they just stood under the city wall, looking at this section of cement and green bricks, imagining how strong and magnificent the entire city would be if it was built like this.

In the midst of everyone's rounds and doubts, the night passed.

On this night, the wind was very hard.

The next day, there were people who were earlier than Lao Xu and them.

Fan Li ran under the city wall early and carefully poked the cement in the joints of the blue bricks with his fingers. Something surprising happened to him.

The cement, which was still flowing everywhere yesterday, has dried overnight. The color has also become a little lighter, and the fingers are very hard when they go up. That hard feeling is different from rammed earth, closer to stone.

"God!" Fan Li was talking to himself, but someone accidentally came from behind.

"Of course God, this cement is something invented by Yan Hou. It has been experimented with for a long time in Maolyeung-eup. After doing it, it's as solid as a rock! Lao Xu's cold voice frightened Fan Li, and his hands were pressed on the Yan knife on his waist.

"You said cement was invented by Yanhou?" Fan Li was a little puzzled.

Lao Xu smiled and said: "Not only cement, the Yan knife in your waist and the military crossbow in Captain Hu Cai's army were all invented by Yan Hou." The things invented by Yanhou are so old, and even he founded his own private school, and even all the high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the court want to send their children to Yanhou's school! ”

Fan Li was stunned, this Yan Hou, who seemed to be afraid of his daughter-in-law, could invent such a sturdy thing? Could it be that I was wrong before!

Fan Li was still thinking, Lao Xu and the others had already begun to prepare to build another section of the collapsed city wall.

This time, Fan Li didn't watch, but built the city wall with Lao Xu, and asked Lao Xu about some things about this Yanhou by the way.

It's been another busy day, and another section of the city wall has been built.

Two city walls in two days, this speed of construction is already shocking. Although the amount of work on both sections is very small. But in the eyes of the people of Cloudsdale, it has become a miracle.

On this day, more than one person went to the city wall like Fan Li to test whether the knot was strong with his fingers.

Yan Ming didn't let people stop these curious people.

The project needs to be tested by the people.

I have to say that Lao Xu Gan still has two brushes. He divided the team into two groups. One group was responsible for building the walls, while the other group went to other openings to dig the foundations.

In this way, one is done, and the other can begin. No delay in the construction period.

The speed of the two sections of the city wall in two days not only surprised the people of Cloud City, but even this speed has attracted the attention of the Xiongnu.

Once Cloudsdale is fortified, then their path to Dahan will be blocked. This wall must not be built.

So, just when Lao Xu was preparing to build the city wall on the third day, the alarm came - enemy attack!

The alarm came early, half an hour earlier than the scouts Fan Li and the others had sent out.

Captain Hu Qi had already climbed the tower. The military crossbows are all wound, and they are waiting for another actual combat exercise.

When Fan Li's group of old defenders got the news of the attack of the Huns, the lieutenants of Hu Cai had already landed in the city for half an hour.

Faced with the lag of news, Fan Li thought for the first time that Wei Qing was okay. was able to get the news of the Huns' attack before him, it seems that this person is not simple.

Originally, I wanted to show off in front of Wei Qing. found that people had already mastered the enemy's situation, and this feeling made Fan Li happy and a little disappointed.

However, the discovery of the enemy's situation is the discovery of the enemy's situation, and the war still depends on fighting. Whether we can win or not is debatable.
