Chapter 63: The Drawings Against the Heavens
Waved away Xun You and Zhao Wu, Li Zheng sat quietly behind the bookcase for a while, filtered the information in his head, and slowly breathed a sigh.
No matter what kind of plan, it is not yet time to implement it, Li Zheng buried it deep in his mind, and in a blink of an eye, he remembered another thing that must be done.
Every month the mystery shop is refreshed, and Li Zheng must take a look.
Although the terrain conversion drawings he was looking forward to never appeared, Li Zheng persevered.
Because of this plan, the city has never been built on the Baishui River. First, building the city is a huge project, which costs a lot, and the burden is too great for Li Zheng for the time being.
Second, if you can get a topographic conversion drawing, you can do it with one idea.
Comparing the two, Li Zheng chose the latter.
But it's a pity that more than half a year has passed, from the end of last year to this year, and now it's August, and it has been refreshed nine times in nine months, but it hasn't been as expected.
Li Zheng can only pin his hopes on this tenth time again.
It's perfect.,I didn't brush this drawing before.,This time it will definitely be refreshed.。
Li Zheng first cheered himself up, and then resolutely clicked on the option of the mystery shop in his mind.
"Hahaha"
At a glance, Li Zheng couldn't help laughing: "I'm finally waiting for you!" ”
The first product is the haunting terrain conversion blueprint!
Take a look at the price behind - 10,000 meritorious deeds!
"No, no, no." Li Zheng frowned: "I remember that the drawing that was refreshed last time only costs two thousand merits, how can this one cost ten thousand?" ”
Sinking his consciousness into it, after a while, after Li Zheng withdrew from consciousness, he couldn't help but smile.
It turns out that the reason why it is five times more expensive is that this one covers a much larger area than the last one!
The area that can be covered by the last drawing is only ten kilometers, that is, twenty miles. And now this one is one hundred and fifty miles!
Although the price is five times more expensive, the coverage area is more than seven times larger, which is cost-effective!
Bought!
In an instant, Li Zheng's exploits were reduced by a quarter.
Earlier, after rescuing Fu Xie, Li Zheng's merits in his hands were more than 17,000, and later he destroyed the Qianren, perhaps because this tribe would have a great impact on the general trend of the world in the future, so he actually gave Li Zheng more than 20,000 merits, so it adds up to more than 40,000!
It's right to think about it, the Qianren, but one of the Wuhu Wuhu who later had a lot of influence on the general trend. But perhaps because the current people are still very weak, they also mean that they have given more than 20,000. Otherwise, if it is a powerful karma in a hundred years, and it hurts the land of Shenzhou, I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of meritorious deeds will still be worth it.
With the terrain conversion drawings in hand, Li Zheng is even more open-minded.
Today is really a good day, Xun Yu worships the Lord, and the drawings are also in hand, who said that the blessing is unequaled?
The next seven products are nothing outstanding. Presumably, Li Zheng's good luck has run out today. But it doesn't matter, today's harvest is enough for Li Zheng to be happy.
He opened his eyes, waved his hand and projected the map in front of him, and took out the terrain conversion drawing covering an area of one hundred and fifty miles from the package, and compared it to the map.
Li Zheng's current territory range, including three counties, one mountain and one grassland, with an area of three hundred miles, although this drawing is functional, but the area that can be covered only accounts for a quarter of it, and it is impossible to rectify the entire territory.
Now we have to make a choice, which area should be used in this drawing, which is the most in line with the needs of the current stage, and the most cost-effective.
Eventually, Li Zheng decided to use it in the Baishui River, including the Shenzhou Grassland, and the Helan Mountain branch that separates the Baishui River from the Shenzhou Grassland.
Completely opening up the traffic in the Helan Mountain branch can not only improve the efficiency of mining and transportation, but also closely connect Baishuichuan with Shenzhou grassland and even Lingzhou and Beidi County.
This is too important for Li Zheng.
Although Li Zheng has never given up manpower, opening a road in the branch of Helan Mountain, connecting the mines, and opening up the passage between the mine and the Baishui River, the consumption is too great and dangerous, and it is too difficult to do with the productivity of this era.
Now that the drawings are in hand, everything is easy to do.
Li Zheng overlapped the drawings with the selected area, and the drawings instantly turned into a blue light and merged into this map, and in front of Li Zheng, all the terrain in this area immediately appeared!
Li Zheng was like a creator, he stretched out his hand, pushed the mountain away, and with a light press, a straight avenue to heaven was formed. With a series of finger strokes, several wide ditches extended from the river, passed through Baishuize, flowed through the branch of Helan Mountain, and directly reached the Shenzhou grassland.
Li Zheng's face was full of obsession.
This kind of method is simply amazing!
By the time Li Zheng nodded contentedly, the terrain on the map had undergone earth-shaking changes.
The first is the Shirasui River. On the east and north sides, there is a mountain rising from the flat ground, pulling up hundreds of meters, and it is extremely steep. Together with the big river in the west and the branch of Helan Mountain in the south, the entire Baishui River with a radius of 100 miles surrounds it, which can be said to be impassable.
The two barracks, turned into two dangerous stone cities, stood quietly, guarding the two only passages leading to the rest of the Hetao grassland, one south and one north.
And on the bank of Baishuize in the west of this grassland, a huge stone city rises from the ground, this stone city is ten miles long and wide, and is the ruling center of the entire Baishuichuan. Among them, there are rows of stone houses with a heavy architectural style, and the straight streets are crisscrossed, dividing the entire stone city into four parts.
In the west of the Baishui River, along the banks of the great river, a huge stone wharf has appeared, and a huge military camp also stands majestically next to the wharf.
There are four large canals leading out of the big river, from west to east, the entire Baishui River traversed, and the infinite amount of water can nourish this grassland at all times. Eight small canals connect these four large canals from north to south, and finally converge into a larger canal, which runs through the branch of Helan Mountain to the south and reaches the Shenzhou grassland.
The wide stone road extending in all directions, starting from the grassland and extending to the branch of Helan Mountain, branched out more than a dozen branch roads, connecting all the mines.
The avenue eventually penetrated the Helan Mountain branch and entered the Baishui River, and then split into four parts, each leading directly to the barracks, the stone city, and the dock. At the same time, there are dozens of branch roads extending in all directions, which run through them, connecting these four main roads.
And on the ditch, there are naturally a number of sturdy stone bridges that carry these major arteries.
In addition to the changes in the roads, water conservancy, cities, barracks and wharves of the Baishui River, the Shenzhou grassland has also undergone great changes.
This grassland originally had an area of only 300 acres, but this time, Li Zheng moved all the surrounding hills five miles outward, making the entire grassland area stretch and expand by 9,000 acres!
The pattern of the grassland has also changed. All the dwellings were concentrated in one area, the southern entrance to the meadow, forming a square residential area, no longer in the shape of a long strip of front hills.
The four main functional buildings, such as the war riding hall, and their related supporting facilities, are also gathered together. The four main functional buildings stand in front, and the side is related supporting facilities, and the animal training ground is in the back, still standing against the mountain.
Stables, sheepfolds, cowsheds and other special buildings for livestock were also gathered by Li Zheng, and they were no longer scattered in the past.
There is also the simple school field, from the ground to the barracks, and even the Dianjiangtai, all of which are made of stone, which looks rough and atmospheric, heroic and solemn.
The stone avenue, centered on the south entrance of the grassland, connects the road to Lingzhou to the south, and the direction to the Baishui River to the north, and also extends a section of the avenue to run through the entire Shenzhou grassland to the forging center.
Correspondingly, some facilities such as the medicine field have also been slightly adjusted. At the same time, in order to facilitate the water supply of the pasture, several regular small canals were also drawn from the large canal.
Since then, the entire pasture, from the map, appears more orderly and more eye-catching.
Of course, because of this, the grassland seems to be much more empty. In particular, the stretched area is all barren, and it is necessary to plant thatched grass and build some building facilities to look perfect.
Admiring the map with great interest, Li Zheng couldn't help but laugh in his heart--in the face of such a huge change, how kind of surprise would everyone under his command be?
At this time, Li Zheng had already heard all kinds of exclamations coming from the grassland.
Immediately, a rush of footsteps came from outside the door.
Xun You's voice sounded: "Lord! ”
"Come in."
Li Zheng did not remove the map, still admiring his masterpiece.
After Xun You entered the door, he was also shocked by the light curtain map, but Xun You's bearing capacity was much stronger, he stabilized his mind, and said calmly: "Lord, grassland"
"Isn't it getting bigger?" Li Zheng laughed, pointed to the map in front of him and said, "Mr. Gongda, come and see." ”
Hearing this, Xun You stepped forward and looked at the light curtain.
After a while, Xun You's face suddenly appeared: "Could it be that the lord did it?" ”
Li Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "I just got a good thing, so I changed the terrain a little." As he spoke, he pointed to the Baishui River on the map and said, "This time the terrain has changed, covering a radius of one hundred and fifty miles, and the Baishui River is completely included, you see, these canals and roads, as well as that circle of mountains, haha"
Xun You was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Lord, in this way, a lot of construction work can be stopped." At the same time, it is also necessary to send a message to Zhou Fei and other principals of Baishuichuan, so as not to make them uneasy. ”
Li Zheng slapped his forehead and smiled: "Patronizing and happy, I almost forgot about this stubble." Mr. Gongda, if you go down later, send a message in my name immediately. ”
I'd like to know the current expressions of the people in Shirasuigawa, but it's important to get down to business.
"Whoa." Xun You nodded, and said: "After the construction of the Baishuichuan and Helan Mountain branches is stopped, will the withdrawn manpower and material resources be invested in the construction of Lingzhou and other three counties?" ”
"Naturally, you make up your mind immediately."
Xun You was speechless, now he finally knows that Li Zheng wants him to admit the master, the biggest reason is that he is lazy!
Li Zheng also saw what Xun Yu meant, smiled hehe, and said, "The lord has something to do, and the subordinates obey him." Mr. Gongda, those who can work harder, I will leave it to you! ”
Xun You was helpless, smiled, and said: "Since the terrain of Baishuichuan has changed greatly, in the face of the current situation, the garrison naturally does not need too much, should you send the army back to Lingzhou?" ”
Li Zheng bowed his head slightly and said with a smile: "That's what I planned." ”
Xun Yu understood, turned around and left.
"It's been a good day."
Li Zheng waved his hand and scattered the light curtain map, muttering to himself leisurely, but in his mind, he couldn't help but analyze the situation, consider development, and so on.
It seems that it can only be a hard life.
Now the terrain of Baishuichuan has changed greatly, the whole is surrounded by mountains tightly, Li Zheng built mountains, but how steep and how to build, I think it is a monkey, and it is difficult to climb over those dangerous mountains.
In this way, it provoked the Huns, and the Huns were helpless. Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, and you can fight if you want to, which is the current shape of Shirasui River.
Thinking of this, Li Zheng smiled.
Just because he's attacking doesn't mean he doesn't need to be safe. Facing enemies on both sides is already very dangerous. Not to mention that the comprehensive strength of these two enemies far surpasses him. Now, he agrees with Xun You's construction, and the main energy should be put to the south. But there are not many tens of thousands of people under his hands, and while guarding against the Huns, he also has to give Han Sui a little color and Dong Zhuo some deterrence, which is difficult to do.
Okay now, don't worry about the Huns for the time being. The two military camps were transformed into a steep Shicheng Pass, according to Li Zheng's design, the terrain was a ten-thousand-man pass, that is, tens of thousands of troops came to attack, and 500 people could defend it properly.
In other words, only a thousand foot soldiers are needed to easily defend the Baishui River.
At this point, the threat of the Huns was gone.
In the future, Li Zheng will fight if he wants to, but if he doesn't want to fight, he can just pat his ass and close the door to defend the city.
