Volume 9 Turning the Sky Chapter 756 [Foreshadowing]
Although the final effect of the canal is still unknown, the convenience that the canal brings to the people of Tokyo is obvious to all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Originally, the people in Tokyo wanted to use water to get water, one was to go to the Bian, Jinshui and Cai rivers that flow through the city to get water by themselves, and the other was to spend money to buy mountain spring water and well water from special water users who were drawn and transported into the city by manpower.
Now, with the completion of the canal, this stream of living water will also flow along the pottery pipe through the water room, along the wall of the mill through the extraction, and finally into thousands of households. Nowadays, if you want to use water, you still need to carry it on your shoulder, as long as you press the pipe of the drain at home, as long as you twist the copper valve handle, there will be a clear spring poofing, and the required cost is only a "water reward" (water fee) of dozens of dollars per month.
Even, the year before last to take back Yanyun, Zhao Guan's family was even more golden, and the people in Tokyo, regardless of men, women, and children, issued a full 1,000 yuan of "charcoal money", which is the consistent reward for each person, not to mention the charcoal that can be burned for a year, even the water bill is equivalent to the package.
Of course, the "Mito", who used to rely on water for food, did not lose their jobs, and some of them were directly recruited as maintenance personnel for the canals and water houses, and were paid a monthly salary, which was also not a small salary, and it deserved the salary of the top of all industries in Tokyo. Some of them have been upgraded and replaced with professional water wheels produced by the two joint venture car factories of Huang Gao, to draw better quality mountain spring water and famous springs and transport them back to Tokyo for sale.
As for the last part, they are all integrated into the fire brigade (i.e., the fire brigade), but their role is not to fight the fire together with the official fire brigade, but to assist the official fire brigade to fetch water from the drain in the event of a fire, and even to set up temporary diversion facilities and control the flow of the waterway.
According to the "fire prevention" article of "Tokyo Menghualu", the streets and alleys in Bianliang City set up a "military patrol shop" every 300 steps, and each shop house was equipped with five "shop soldiers" to be responsible for night patrols. In addition, the "fire watchtower" was built in the high place in the city, there were people looking at the upper floor, there were several official houses downstairs, more than 100 "hidden fire soldiers" were stationed, and there were "large and small buckets, sprinklers, hemp, axes and saws, ladders, fire forks, large ropes, iron cats" and other fire-fighting equipment. As soon as a fire was found, it was immediately reported, and the hidden fire soldiers immediately dispatched to "draw water to extinguish it, and not to bother the people".
Moreover, the submarine fire team is also subdivided into the water army, the building team, the pro-soldier team, the tent front team, etc., so this merging into the submarine fire team is responsible for the Tianqu has its own proper name "Tianqu team".
So, having said so much about the canal, we actually have to talk about the square wall, because the sky canal is a suspended pipe built along the square wall. Although during the construction, a considerable part of the canals adopted the column suspension erection method, but when the canals in the outer city were built, Huang Jie took a look at the concept and secretly changed the so-called square wall that originally only had the function of making and fire prevention, and built a real "city wall".
Throughout the outer city of Tokyo, the walls are symmetrically distributed along the palace-shaped pattern, and the regulations of the previous plan were that "the base of the wall is about four feet deep, the height of the wall is about one zhang two, and the thickness of the wall is three feet, and the top of the wall is laid with broken porcelain, which can make it difficult for the small people to pass, and the wall is built with three layers of earth with crushed stone, bamboo tendons, pebbles, and stones, so that it does not collapse when it is burned and flooded." ā
But in the actual construction, Huang Jie is regardless of the cost of the wall base dug to six feet deep, but also increased the thickness to six feet, although the wall height is still in accordance with the original plan to build, but in the construction of the design, on both sides of the wall are reserved on both sides of the "interface" that others can not see, once the need is encountered, you can according to the "excuse" to lay the supporting prefabricated stone components, overnight can increase the height of the wall to two zhang.
Moreover, the hardness of the wall with enough Sanhe soil is not weaker than the wall of the outer city wall, after the completion of Huang Jie once asked Han Jinbao to find a few Song army soldiers who are good at attacking the city and chiseling the wall to personally test, let them use up the means of water immersion, fire, axe chisel and other means, and finally came to the conclusion that although the wall built by Huang Jie can also be chiseled, the speed of chiseling is often several times that of the same thickness of the Song city wall.
And now, Huang Jie and the Seed Master Dao have planned such a big event, how can they not forget the foreshadowing of the fang wall, which Huang Jie has long been buried, and naturally wrote all the methods and skills of the fang wall in the "Bianliang Codex" in advance.
And Zong Ze and Li Gang had already studied the usefulness of this square wall more than a year ago, but because of the appearance of the seed master at that time, the seed master personally came to ask Zong and Li Wanwan to reveal the use of the square wall, and they must protect this secret until the time when they were about to use the life and death barrier of the square wall.
Therefore, from the current point of view, the reason why Zhao Ji ran is probably because he doesn't know the "Bianliang Codex", and he seems to not remember that when Huang Jie used his three-inch tongue to say that he agreed to build the canal and the wall, he had clearly explained to him the wonderful use of this city.
However, at the moment, Zhao Ji took the initiative to abdicate and become the emperor because he was afraid of the golden people, and it may not be what gave the throne to Zhao Heng because he didn't know the "Bianliang Codex", at least Huang Jie now firmly believes that everything is "Destiny" and "Days", but his flapping butterfly wings still play a role.
Without further ado, when it was difficult for the Jin army to raise troops, Zong Ze and Li Gang also knew that it was time to use the Fang Wall, so they naturally made all the preparations. When the Jin army really came to the city, he also withdrew all the people in the south and four chambers of the entire outer city to the north chamber overnight, and then used 100,000 forbidden troops and people to use 100,000 forbidden troops and people overnight to connect the southeast corner of the inner city between the Song Gate of the inner city and the new Song Gate of the outer city, and the square wall between the Zheng Gate of the inner city and the Xinzheng Gate of the outer city in the southwest corner were all raised overnight, and all the convenient gates that were originally used for traffic were sealed, leaving only the Yongdao for sending troops.
That is to say, even if the Jin army breaks through the Nanxun Gate and enters the outer city, it will be contained in this new mouth-shaped trap, but as long as the Nanxun Gate at the entrance is blocked, and then the Song army directly stands on the city wall and surrounds it on all sides, without firing arrows, everyone sprinkles a soak of urine into it every day, but I am afraid that it will not be long before all the Jin army will be drowned alive in scarlet urine!
Therefore, now everyone knows, why did Huang Jie dare to ask Zong Ze and them to demolish the urn city of Nanxun Gate, and lead them into Tokyo to catch turtles in an urn, right? (To be continued.) )
