Chapter 83: Repair the city

Yu Zhiwei found that since Yu Jingning was poked to Liaodong with a pole, the whole person is like being beaten with chicken blood, and he is no longer the Yu Jingning in the Beijing division who has an abacus and worries about it and pulls a black face all day long.

After retreating from the Uliangha army for the first time, but after resting for half a day, the whole person seemed to have returned to his soul, and he was very vigorous.

So, after teaching his sister, a Liaodong general soldier who was alive and well, immediately let Yu Zhiwei practice what he said to him.

Didn't you say, "Fortify the city with cannons"? Let's start with the first half of the sentence, let's repair the city first!

When Yu Zhiwei shoveled the soil with a shovel in his hand, he still didn't recover from Yu Jingning's extremely high efficiency.

To tell the truth, the wall of the Ningyuan Acropolis was indeed cut to the misery by the Wuliangha people, there are four big holes two zhang square, and the rest of the small holes are countless, Yu Zhiwei can be regarded as really seeing what it means to be "full of holes".

Whether it is a Franc cannon such as Weiyuan and Poyu, or a Hongyi cannon, the coverage area has a dead end. A cannonball flies a few feet away, and when it falls, it is certainly quite powerful, but what if the enemy breaks through the dense artillery fire and rushes to the bottom of the city wall?

The cannon can't hit the bottom of the wall with its neck, so the dug place is completely "dark under the lamp".

Yu Zhiwei held a shovel and wiped her face, in this cold winter, she was sweating. But it's okay, it's time to keep out the cold.

If a person is idle at home every day, for example, she was in Beijing before, and she couldn't eat two taels of meals all day, Yu Jingning glared at her several times: "Are you going to feed the cat?" But once she was active outside, the amount of food increased dramatically, and she didn't make up for the city wall for two days, and the words "hungry" were left in the town.

She tilted her head slightly and asked Yu Jingning beside her, "Big brother, when are we going to have lunch?" ”

As soon as these words came out, she immediately received Yu Jingning's white eyes, and he pointed to the sun in the sky: "When is this time, you will know how to eat." ”

Yu Zhiwei was not annoyed, and changed the topic with a smile: "Is it that next time the Wuliangha people come, we still have to 'tear down the east wall and make up the west wall?'" ’”

It's not always a way to dig and make up, you have to think of a solution to it.

"It may be like this next time, but it may not be possible when the Ningyuan Acropolis is completely built." Yu Jingning's face did not change, and he laid bricks and stones into the hole.

When Yu Zhiwei heard that there was a way, he hurriedly asked, "Do you have any good ideas again?" ”

"The idea is there, but it's a long-term idea." Yu Jingning is worthy of being the queen of the gate, although he was born in the lord's family, he is by no means a pampered son, he has been mixed with his father on the battlefield since he was a child, and he is not ambiguous at all about what the pawn does. Even when he was kept in captivity in Beijing, he didn't fall behind at all, but now he is talking while doing heavy work, and he is not breathing, Yu Zhiwei can't help but secretly admire.

"Remember the vacant houses outside the city?" I only heard Yu Jingning say, "Originally, the people outside Ningyuan City all moved into the city in order to survive. Those private houses are of little use, and it is better to use them than to burn down the 'strong walls and clear the wilderness'. ”

When Yu Zhiwei heard this, he first frowned - if it was just to mend the city wall, now the bricks and stones would be more than enough. If he wants a private house, then he can only do a big project, and he is afraid that he can't wait for the freshly fired bricks, so he must make up for it with ready-made ones first.

Yu Jingning really said: "Yesterday, I have arranged for someone to burn bricks, I am only afraid that the military budget will not be enough, so I will use the bricks and stones of the private house first." At that time, a square enemy platform was built at each of the four corners of the acropolis wall, which stretched out of the city on three sides, and connected to the city on one side. ”

The gun carriage can turn, not to mention a whole week, but three-quarters of a week. At that time, the artillery on the east side will be able to bend its neck to hit the west, not to mention that it can completely solve the problem of manually digging the city, at least it will not be as "full of holes" as it is now.

Yu Jingning said, couldn't help but be a little happy, carried the bricks and stones on his shoulders, turned back to Yu Zhiwei and smiled: "Suzhou City, where Jiayuguan is located, is almost built like this, but when I was a child, the gun carriage couldn't turn yet, and when I had the opportunity, I will take you ......."

Yu Jingning stopped abruptly as he spoke.

He probably won't have, and won't have the opportunity, to take Yu Zhiwei to his childhood home to take a look.

The smile on Yu Jingning's face gradually converged, and he secretly scolded himself, he slackened when he left the capital, and he didn't even have any sense of proportion, he really deserved to fight.

He suddenly seemed to have returned to Beijing, his face suddenly darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "I'll go ahead and have a look." ”

The cold wind in Liaodong blew Yu Zhiwei a spirit, and the heat in his body was gone.

She pinched herself the spot - the situation in the territory of Liaodong, which round got herself to be amorous here!

Instead of thinking about what you don't have, it's better to think about what Ning Yuancheng should do in the future.

So she thought about it with a frown as she shoveled dirt and muded the walls.

Now there are no officers and soldiers in Ningyuan City, and the people are crowded. Not only those who had withdrawn from outside the city, but also those who had retreated further north to the south.

If you want to defend yourself against foreign enemies, you can't start a fire in the backyard in the first place, and how to settle the displaced people in this city is a huge problem first.

Standing on the drum tower of Ningyuan City, you can see the camp tents of Wuliangha five miles away, and no one knows when they will slow down and attack Ningyuan again.

So all the measures now are all in a hurry to rush for time.

Yu Zhiwei looked at the shovel in his hand, and was a little stunned for a while. A twenty-year-old guard soldier standing not far away saw her stop, and hurriedly asked, "Big sister, oh no, Miss Yu, are you tired?" Let's take a break, it's not easy for the girl's family to work with the little boy! ”

No matter how much Yu Zhiwei refuses to admit defeat, her body is also a little girl who is less than thirteen years old, no matter how much she practiced kung fu before, she relied on agility and lightness to win, the so-called "playing skills", if it really talks about physical endurance, Tan Huaiju's kind of weak scholar She can throw ten streets, but what about this group of strong men who have been in the army all year round?

She's so inefficient!

Yu Zhiwei first spat on himself, and then immediately learned from the pain and began to think about a solution.

How can we efficiently arrange everything in the city before the next attack of the Uliangha?

She made up her mind to ask her brother tomorrow for advice, and since she was of no great use in repairing the city walls, it would be better to arrange for her to settle the homeless.

It is also avoided that he will always think about something in front of Yu Jingning every day.
