Chapter 64 Territorial Construction
The ancestors said that it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to sit on the country. Hua Feiyang said that it is easy to sit on the country, but it is difficult to build the country.
Hua Feiyang was faced with a blank piece of paper, and he wanted to draw on it, but the problem was that he couldn't draw at all, so how could he get it.
Population is the key to the development of a territory. Hua Feiyang called Vidal over and pulled his own personnel. Counting some people who have run back from the forest in the past few days, as well as some humans who have been liberated after killing the orcs, there are about 3,000 people in total, and one of the three of them is a soldier.
Fortunately, the army was either brought from the imperial capital by himself, or he had fought with orcs in bloody battles with him, Hua Feiyang did not worry about rebellion, seizure of power and other issues.
Even so, Hua Feiyang listened to Steven and Vidal's advice for a long time, and scattered Zhang Fugui's men and horses and reintegrated them into his own military system.
At the same time, he asked Zhang Fugui to take some people and horses to the grasslands and forests to collect the scattered human race. After all, when the orcs defeated the humans, there were still 2-30,000 people in the human territory, and the orcs did not massacre the human race on a large scale at that time, that is, these humans should have scattered everywhere. Now that the orcs have been wiped out, then these people should slowly gather back as well.
There is also a headache of what to do with orcs. He should have captured about 400 orcs, all of them were hungry, even if Hua Feiyang only kept these orcs starving, it would be more than his own 2000 humans. Although Hua Feiyang captured some grain when he broke through the orc camp, he is now about to bottom out.
The day after the end of the war, Hua Feiyang asked Zhang Mumu to release some of these orcs, and under the supervision of the army, carry out work such as moving stones and digging earth, the efficiency of orcs is ten times that of humans, and he and his soldiers cannot just live in tents forever.
"Forget it, don't think about it!" Throwing away a lot of messy things at hand, Hua Feiyang stood up and stretched. "Hua'an, quickly call Yiyi over and ask her to sort this mess, and then I'll come back and look at it!"
"Hua An, let's go to the construction site and have a look!" Hua Feiyang said, and then under the protection of Hua Tianyi and others, he came to a relatively flat and wide highland.
The entire construction site was already full of people, with orcs and humans shuttling back and forth. The orcs carried a stone of nearly a ton collected from a mountain not far away, and then several humans took the stone and began to polish and cut into pieces. Soon it became a standard stone.
Under the supervision and command of the soldiers, some orcs then transported the stones to the designated place and put them in the dug foundation pit, like building blocks, paving them piece by piece. Between the stones, the Terran craftsmen smeared something like mud, which was a binder and an insulating coating.
"Young master, you're here!" Hua Zaigong, the person in charge of the entire construction, heard that Hua Feiyang was coming, and hurriedly ran over.
Hua Feiyang and the others were coming out of a completed house, and the others were full of praise.
"You came just in time, and I was about to ask you! How long will it take us to build such a house now? I see that this side has just given an order, and you are about to build it!" Hua Feiyang was very curious.
"How can it be so fast, if it weren't for the fact that your old man had already chosen the location before, General Zhang Mumu and the orcs had already carried back a large number of stones from the mountain, and dug the foundation of the pit here, a lot of work in the early stage had already been done, just waiting for your order to start building blocks." If you start preparing after you give the order, if you want to see the current situation, it will be at least a month later. Hua Zaigong replied honestly.
"Not bad, really good!" Hua Feiyang really felt very comfortable, these brothers were finally able to get the work in advance, instead of yelling at them to do it. As for the fact that they speculate about their intentions, nonsense, they don't speculate about their intentions, what do they want them to do.
"You have only been preparing for a month to be able to reach this situation?" Hua Feiyang silently counted just now, a stone house, that is, half an hour to complete. Today, it looks like we can complete about 30 seats.
"If we had done it ourselves, we wouldn't have been able to do this in half a year, but with these big guys, we've increased our efficiency more than tenfold. For example, in the past, it took at least four young men and two carriages to transport this piece of feldspar from the stone processing site over there to the construction site here, and it took half an hour to do it, but now, this big man was carried over by one person, and it was completed in three to five minutes! This time, the construction was able to be carried out so quickly, mainly because the orcs played a great role! Hua Zaigong did not blow it, but reported the actual situation to Hua Feiyang.
Hua Feiyang carefully observed for a while, the beast manpower is infinite, and the human race is meticulously crafted, and the two parties are combined, which is not a simple effect of one plus one and one and two, but a multiplier, or even an exponential progress.
A lot of things that used to take several humans a long time to do are now easier because of the presence of orcs. Orcs are equivalent to cranes, forklifts, excavators and other construction machinery in the Earth era, and they are much more flexible than construction machinery.
"How strong is this kind of house?" Hua Feiyang asked.
"Young master, this kind of house built up with big bluestone is extremely protective, and when I did the destructive test just now, this house can withstand at least three full blows from a high-ranking swordsman! And because of the high terrain, it is all stone, fireproof, waterproof, warm in winter and cool in summer!" Hua Zaigong said.
"Then what's the problem now?" Hua Feiyang asked.
"The reserve of stone is expected to be consumed in two days, that is, after the construction of about 80 sets of such houses, opening the mountain and taking stones is our bottleneck, and the progress in the later stage will drop a lot!" Hua Zaigong thought about it and said. "In addition, the cell you said to be built for the orcs may not be able to do the level of all stone, after all, the orcs are too tall to carry such a heavy stone even if the orcs themselves can't carry such heavy stones. ”
"Before the arrival of winter, can it be completely completed?" Hua Feiyang, as a leader, pays attention to results.
"It should be no problem, after all, there is still a month and a half before entering the winter, and there is not much pressure to finish these things!" After Hua Zaigong heard Hua Feiyang's request, he felt obviously relaxed. If this is required to be completed within 10 days, Hua Zaigong will not be able to do it.
"Young master, the search team has come back again, this time they have brought back more than three hundred people!" Just when Hua Feiyang was still learning about the construction of the camp, a sentry came to report.
Hua Feiyang sighed when he heard this, "I'm working, I can't take care of you, you worry about it more, and the big guy's housing problem depends on you." However, as you heard just now, the original estimate of 400 sets may not be enough, according to the 500 sets of preparation, each set will be according to the standard of ten people, if there is a new change in the population by then, we are adjusting the houses that have not been built!"
"Yes, young master, I promise to complete the task!" Hua Zaigong returned with a military salute.
