Diao Sheng said: "The first problem is the transportation of raw materials. In order to achieve the degree of firmness required by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the rammed earth process was abandoned in this design. Instead, stone is used for masonry. However, there is no stone production near Jingzhou City, so many stones are transferred from all over the country, and the transportation problem needs to be solved by further solutions. ”

Hearing this, the other construction teams couldn't help but secretly curse their mothers.

Due to the limitations of all aspects, we still adopt the rammed earth process in the main body of the design, so we only make a fuss about the support and connection.

Now this Diao Sheng first denied the rammed earth process, came up with a very good design plan, and then proposed that there are problems with material transportation.

Diao Sheng didn't finish the trouble, and continued: "There is another problem with the connection of stones. The current consideration is to process the stone into a jagged upper and lower occlusion, which can solve the problem of force, but requires more skilled stonemasons. So we're still trying to figure out how to do that. ”

The rest of the team builders had only one thought: this is a pitfall!

Yes, he was right. Neither theoretically nor practically, there is no problem.

The problem: quantity.

It's okay to deal with one, two, dozens, or even hundreds of stones. But what does Jingzhou City need hundreds, if not thousands?

If nothing else, where can you find so many skilled stonemasons? Even if all the stonemasons in the world are recruited, it will be too late!

"Very good!" The crown prince Li Jing spoke: "Diao Jiaban's idea is right. The construction of Jingzhou City must have this kind of craftsman spirit! When encountering difficulties, the first thing to think about is not to avoid it, but how to tackle key problems and how to find ways to solve them! Very well, go ahead. ”

Everyone present looked at each other, and it was impossible to say this.

The next few class owners have lost confidence at all, and their designs are still rammed earth designs. Now that the prince has set the tone, it doesn't make much sense to say it or not. So they went up one after another and simply went through the motions.

It seems that this work has fallen to the Diao family. Everyone thought to themselves.

"Design is the foundation of a building's excellence. The construction of Jingzhou City must adopt the most reasonable and excellent design. Therefore, our Qinjiaban first started with the design layout. Qin Xiaoluan, who was the last to appear, said loudly.

Everyone present expected to see such a young woman, who came up with the words "the most reasonable and excellent", and thought in their hearts: Aren't you afraid of flashing your tongue when you say this? After the construction design reaches the top level, at most, it only has its own spring and autumn, and there is never a "most" word.

Some people also knew that this was the team named by the prince himself, and couldn't help but shake their heads secretly: Even if this is related, it can't be so blatant?

There are also people who are indignant in their hearts, if it weren't for the presence of the prince, they would have taught a lesson on the spot. It's so crazy when you come up at a young age, what are we seniors? It's not martial arts at all! Little girl, you rat tail juice!

Qin Xiaoluan smiled slightly and took out the design drawing.

"Boom out!" Prince Shaozhan Yu Qizheng spoke: "The construction of Jingzhou City, such a big event, how can you be allowed to play like this?" ”

"Why do you say I'm child's play?" Qin Xiaoluan looked at Yu Qizheng angrily.

"Why? Then I'll tell you about it! Yu Qizheng pointed to the drawings: "Look for yourself, among all the drawings today, which one is not drawn horizontally and vertically, and the ruler is clear?" Look at what you draw, it's crooked like an earthworm, and you don't even need rules and rules to draw! According to your drawings, is it a snake cave or a rat's nest? ”

Everyone present burst into laughter.

Happy, happy!

Speaking of this, Qin Xiaoluan is really a little weak-hearted.

I'm not very good at using brushes, and I basically don't know how to use those drawing tools in this era. The most important thing is that I don't have time to paint slowly, so what comes out is this kind of "masterpiece" like a child's graffiti.

But at this time, he definitely couldn't retreat, and immediately raised his neck and said, "What is the reason why you are Yu Shaozhan, oh no, you are nothing now." Isn't it clear to someone why you don't know why? ”

"I don't care what your reason is! In short, taking out this kind of thing is suspected of being disrespectful to His Royal Highness the Prince. Yu Qizheng said with a righteous face: "Even if you don't mention that, it at least proves that your attitude is very problematic." With your attitude, how can we believe that we can do good? ”

"Good!" Some people couldn't help but cheer.

Yu Qizheng's words spoke everyone's hearts.

Shao Zhanshi is really a young and promising, righteous and awe-inspiring official! There were rumors before that the Qin family class was shortlisted for something by relying on his relationship, from this point of view, rumors! It's all rumors!

But why was the expression on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's face so unfathomable, and he looked at Qin and Yu's expressions, how could it be a bit like he was ...... Watching a play?

Qin Xiaoluan broke free and pulled his guards, and said to the prince: "Your Highness, due to the rush of time, the mapping is not working, please forgive your Highness." But the folk girl was by no means intentional, and there was no offense or disrespect. ”

"Okay, okay, don't waste everyone's time." Yu Qizheng said impatiently: "Stand down." ”

Qin Xiaoluan turned a deaf ear to Qi Zheng's words and continued: "I beg Your Highness, let me explain the design. If there is really a sloppy disrespect, and then the crime is punished, the people are willing. ”

Yu Qi was about to drink and order the guards to make a move, when Li Jing spoke: "Yes." ”

Qin Xiaoluan broke free from the guards, and after giving Yu Qizheng a fierce look, he began to speak.

"Jingzhou is also in the world. Back then, Zhuge Liang said very clearly in "Longzhong Pair" that the world should take Jingzhou first.

After Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang repaired Jingzhou City according to the Yin and Yang Bagua Array. How powerful is this formation? The enemy will not be able to attack the city, nor will it be able to break the city, but will fall into the formation and be completely annihilated.

Guan Yu was defeated and took Maicheng, if it wasn't for Mi Fang's surrender and dedication of the city, Lu Meng would be useless even if he sneaked attacked.

Then why didn't Zhuge Liang take Jingzhou back? The answer is laughable.

Because even Zhuge Liang himself couldn't break the formation he laid out back then. ”

"Okay, if you want to tell the story, go to Song Mazi Teahouse." Yu Qizheng interjected.

The crowd laughed again.

These things that Qin Xiaoluan talked about are all "legends" that cannot be verified.

Originally, Zhuge Liang was a mythical character, and many things were exaggerated.

There are also related legends such as "wooden oxen and flowing horses" that do not need to be pushed by others. Despite what everyone says, no one has ever seen the real thing.

Now that Qin Xiaoluan is talking about this, it can't help but seem too unrigorous.

Qin Xiaoluan smiled slightly: "My design is to restore Zhuge Kongming's Yin and Yang Bagua Array. ”

"What?!"

Everyone was stunned, and even Li Jing couldn't help but stand up.

Qin Xiaoluan had already thought of his words: "Originally, I thought that those were all false rumors, but in the past few days I was in the city, and I accidentally discovered the sealed soil left behind by the formation. ”

"Come on." There was some excitement in Li Jing's voice.

"According to my inference, the defense system of Jingzhou City at that time was not a single city wall, but composed of three city walls: the outer wall, the inner wall, and the water wall. So I followed this line of thought and restored the Yin and Yang Bagua Array. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Xiaoluan's finger pointed to his drawing: "I'll talk about the water wall first." ”

Li Jing walked to the drawings, looked at the drawings intently, and ordered in a deep voice: "Except for Qi Chaoqun, Zuo Hansheng, Yu Qizheng and Hu Mufeng, everyone retreats!" ”

Everyone knows that if such a design can be made, then from a design point of view, other people's will not be competitive at all.

This design plan is bound to be adopted, and the drawings are naturally highly confidential, and it is reasonable that the prince only allows those few people to see them.

But fortunately, the prince didn't let them out directly, and it was an eye-opener to be able to listen to this magical design. Oh no, open ears.

Qin Xiaoluan's fingers gestured on the drawings and explained: "Here, it is the small east gate in the southeast corner of Jingzhou City. This gate faces the river, and there is no land connection with the outside of the city, so you can only rely on boats to enter and exit. That's where the bride and the grandchildren came in. Later, Mi Fang greeted Lu Meng and also sneaked in from this door. That's why I call it the wall of water. ”

The people below are all doing construction, and they are itching to listen. One by one, they stood on tiptoe and craned their necks to look at the drawings—though they knew they wouldn't be able to see them.

"Cut, so it's mysterious." Diao Sheng whispered unconvinced: "The door is the door, the wall is the wall, the water is the water, where does the water wall come from?" ”

Li Jing raised his head, and a pair of sword eyebrows raised: "Get out!" ”

Diao Sheng shuddered in fright, and immediately turned pale and bent down and walked backwards.

Li Jing waved his hand: "All of you." ”

The others bowed their heads and saluted, glaring at Diao Sheng with anger in their hearts. It's good, I was troubled by this kid, and I didn't even have a chance to listen.

Among them, there are two powerful bigwigs, who can't wait to swallow Diao Sheng alive.

What they thought in their hearts before was that the Qin family class could design a magic stroke, but it was likely that such a small team would not be able to do it. As long as you know the design principle, think about it when you go home, and produce another drawing, you can at least have a little hope.

Well, now, the last hope is gone.

After these people went out, Li Jing said softly: "Qin class master, you continue. ”

Qin Xiaoluan nodded: "The beauty of the Little East Gate is that it can turn the river outside the city into a wall of water. ”

Qi Chaoqun, who was born in the march and fighting, was the first to react: "Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

The prince smiled: "General Qi, do you understand?" Let's talk about it. ”

Qi Chaoqun didn't shirk, clasped his fists and bowed down and replied, "Oh." ”

The small east gate was accessed by water, so the enemy army could not enter through this gate. A deep pit was dug into the periphery of the city here, and the small east gate was equivalent to a lock. After the enemy navy comes in, open the floodgates and release the water, so that all the enemies who come in can be wiped out without a single soldier.

Assassin Shi Zuo Hansheng shook his head and said: "If this is the case, it is not appropriate to call it a water diversion army, and it is not appropriate to call it a water wall." Another point is that we cannot fully consider wartime, but also the people's livelihood in peacetime. Jingzhou City was built near the river, and there was originally a worry about flooding. If it is directly next to the Yangtze River, I am afraid it is inappropriate. ”

Yu Qizheng said: "Although the Yangtze River has not dried up, there is still a difference in the water level. This year it is close to the river, but next year it may not be. ”

Hu Mufeng also said from a professional point of view: "There is one more point. If the city wall is flooded for a long time, I am afraid that the foundation is not solid. ”

Qin Xiaoluan smiled slightly: "General Qi is right when he said about the water diversion army, and the left thorn history is right when he said that this is not a water wall." Senior Hu and Yu ...... Mr. Yu's concerns are reasonable, and the water wall I mentioned has also considered these. ”

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his thumb and middle finger, and continued to measure and explain along the map between the small east gate and the Yangtze River.

It does not mean that the entire Jingzhou city should be completely dependent on the Yangtze River, there is still some distance between the city wall and the river.

This distance is rammed with earth and high embankments, which can not be flooded when the Yangtze River is at its highest.

To put it simply, the soil foundation outside Jingzhou City was raised higher than the surrounding area, and the water flowed to a lower place, which solved the flood problem of Jingzhou City.

The section from Xiaodongmen to the Yangtze River does not need to raise the foundation, which is equivalent to a small river that intersects perpendicularly with the Yangtze River to keep the waterway unimpeded, and this section is called the water wall.

Qi Chaoqun couldn't help but applaud and shouted, "Good! ”

This time, without waiting for Li Jing to open his mouth to inquire, he directly said it himself.

At present, Jingzhou City, according to the rise and fall of the Yangtze River, is about 100 to 150 steps away from the city to the river.

This distance is enough for 2,000 troops to be deployed into battle formations, and siege equipment such as trebuchets and ladders can be set up.

This is the weakness of Jingzhou City's defense all along.

According to Qin Xiaoluan's practice, this distance is set at fifty steps or even thirty cloths, and at the same time, it is high.

In this way, the enemy army could not spread out on the river beach at all, and it was much more difficult to set up heavy equipment such as trebuchets. In addition, its large army has been in a state of unstable foothold on the river.

Li Jing nodded frequently.

The more Qi Chaoqun spoke, the more excited he became, and he continued to talk endlessly.

The land of Jingchu, the great rivers and rivers, has always been good at water warfare here.

According to Qin Xiaoluan's setting, set up the small east gate and the section of the river that connects with the Yangtze River.

In this way, even if the enemy's army presses the border and captures the city that section of dozens of paces, as long as the Jingzhou sailors kill from the small east gate, once the river is controlled, then the enemy's strong army attacking the city will become a lamb to be shot by the defenders of the city!

This section is the "water wall" to defend Jingzhou City!

Li Jing asked: "But in this case, if you want to use a large boat to enter and exit the water division, how big is the doorway of this small east gate?" In this case, can't the enemy's large ships attack from this gate? ”

Qin Xiaoluan smiled slightly: "No, this door is not only not big, but also relatively small, and the specific size has to be determined by General Qi." ”

Qi Chaoqun frowned slightly, and then laughed: "I understand." We don't need to fight a big water fight with them at all, after all, the enemy is coming in a big way, and there must be a lot of people. It only needs to train a small but fine sailor, and go out for a dozen or twenty small boats at a time. Shoot rockets to burn their sails, send water ghosts to gouge through the bottom of the ship, and so on. ”

"Even if you can't directly attack the enemy's large fleet, you can use this elite army to rush to the shore and destroy the siege equipment that they have so hard to carry ashore."

"Your Highness, it's not your subordinates boasting. If there is really such a water wall setting, give Qi half a year to train an elite naval army to come out, no matter how many enemies come, within half a year, they will never have the opportunity to get close to the Jingzhou city wall. ”

Li Jing also nodded with satisfaction.

Qin Xiaoluan smiled and said, "General Qi, I haven't introduced the design of the exterior and interior walls yet. ”

Not only Qi Chaoqun, everyone looked at Qin Xiaoluan with expectant eyes.
