Volume 1 Chapter 342 Worse News Comes

"But it's hard to get some large construction equipment here, otherwise, the speed can be a little faster." This son is very proud.

Li Yaoguang came over and looked at the city wall that had only taken more than four hours at the entrance of the narrow canyon to nearly one zhang and approached two zhang high, and couldn't help but pout. "That's really fast, as long as there are enough bricks and stones, if you do this day and night, I'm afraid it will take three or five days at most, and it will be completed. It's a pity that the appearance of this door hole is too inferior. ”

“…… No way, you think I don't want to fix it beautifully? It's a pity that I don't have time now, these dozen or so prefabricated boards are still carried over by those young and strong. Ben Gongzi blinked, looking at the rectangular doorway, it was indeed a bit frustrating, compared to the beautiful round arches of this era.

But the problem is that Ben Gongzi doesn't have time to find so many suitable boulders to make doors now, and the only way he can think of is to use the prefabricated slabs that build the buildings. Moreover, at the city gate, the square boulder that exists in Hancheng County is used, and the prefabricated slab supports the weight of this doorway.

"Aunt, three ladies, you are tired of your journey today, so it's better to go back and rest early." looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky, although I don't like this kind of situation where I have to be separated because of things when I meet, but I don't want to tire them out, over there, Li Xuanba has fallen asleep on the floor of the temporary camp, Li Shimin yawns and plays poker with Liu Hongji, it seems that the two of them won't last long.

"Forget it, nearly 10,000 people are contributing to the safety of Hancheng County, the old body has passed all the way, I don't know how many things will be delayed by Lu Dao, or forget it, besides, although there are not many troops in my Li Mansion, it can also be regarded as an elite division, it is better to stay, and you let people set aside a separate camp for our mother." Queen Dou waved her hand unappreciatively and replied.

"This ......" My eyes fell on Li Yaoguang's body, as long as this girl was a little reluctant, this son would definitely turn his three-inch incorruptible tongue and fool Queen Dou back to Hancheng County.

Li Yaoguang blinked, with a happy face. "Okay, okay, mother, let's camp here.

Khan, this girl actually thinks that the war that has begun to come is not a camping in the wilderness? Ben Gongzi couldn't help but feel dizzy, but when I saw her blinking at me, let's stop. Hurriedly greeted Zheng Chen, took out a few sleeping bags in my hand, and prepared two suitable tents for the mother and daughter and those fox friends by the way, anyway, if these two stayed, Li Shimin and they would definitely have to stay.

"You remember to rest early, don't be too late, it's not good for your health. Do you know the way? Looking at the departing mother, Li Yaoguang turned around, and after saying a word of advice to me, he quickly chased after Queen Dou.

And there was something in his heart, and after lying down for a while, Ben Gongzi decided to take a look at the valley valley, turned over and jumped on the horseback in a daze, and saw that the leader of the trilogy next to him was Zheng Chen, and couldn't help but ask with some doubts. "Where's Yuan Fang's kid?"

"Childe, just now you asked him to bring another team of men and horses to guard fifty miles outside the valley mouth." Zheng Chen stood next to me and whispered. Damn, it looks like I'm really busy.

Came to the pass not far away, at this moment, nearly one-third of the construction has been built, if you add more effort tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, after the construction, this is really a master, the kind that is not opened.

It was already the height of summer, but it was still a little cold in the middle of the night in the mountains, and at this moment, the craftsmen who were still busy had already come to the tents set up in the camp that had been prepared for them, and tiredly picked up their own blankets and covered them, and fell asleep.

Only dozens of militiamen on duty at night, standing under the torches, yawned from time to time, saw Ben Gongzi coming, and quickly greeted me with vigor, Ben Gongzi was very kind to turn over and jump off the horse, along the two huge slopes to the pass, although only less than a third was built, but because the city gate is the most critical place, so the city gate has been built here two zhang high.

After the outer wall is filled with five layers of red bricks, it is the core of the wall poured with stone and cement, and at the city wall on the city gate, the outer three layers of red bricks, the inner three layers of red bricks, and the middle of the nearly one meter wide place, will be poured with stones and cement at that time, and the back side of the face is empty, after all, I am worried that the roof is too heavy, and it is not good to crush the city gate.

For this reason, in the middle of the gate, a load-bearing wall about 50 centimeters wide was erected with stones, but the depression on the top still left it empty, and could be used as an arsenal in the future. The two edges of the city wall are arc-shaped, stretching forward, and after completion, on the city wall that is as wide as four zhang, it is not a problem to stand nearly a thousand people at that time, and even like the city wall of Luoyang, get a dozen or so catapults, it is definitely not a problem.

Now the total length of the city wall has reached a distance of only more than 30 meters wide, and when it is completely repaired, the two wings can be extended to a distance of nearly ten zhang each, and when the time comes, from the city wall to the tip of the two wings, the distance in a straight line will be about seven zhang, so that when the enemy is at least 150 steps away from the city wall, the crossbow arrows on both wings can already cause damage to those attacking enemies.

Fortunately, there are so many laborers working together, otherwise, if you want to build such a pass, only the hundred craftsmen are afraid, I am afraid that it will not be able to be repaired in a few months.

Now, among the more than 10,000 young and strong people, there are more than 2,500 skilled masons alone, and with these people working at the same time, and thousands of young people to assist, it is difficult to think about it.

After inspecting the results of the day, Ben Gongzi walked down cautiously, and then walked towards the outside of the canyon, and came to the mouth of the canyon far from there, where there were more than ten camps, and there were ten people resting in one tent, well, these people were all my subordinates, and compared to those militiamen who had only been trained for less than a month, Ben Gongzi trusted my subordinates more.

The soldiers of the first battalion are currently stationed at the entrance of the canyon, and I have arranged my troops to be on duty at the mouth of the valley, which is actually the second line of defense, and the first line of defense is naturally dozens of elite troops led by Li Yuanfang, who are dozens of miles away to reconnoitre, and as soon as there is a warning signal, they will rush back to tell us. In this way, with a certain amount of time, you will be able to take sufficient precautions.

Even before we were far away, the guards had already noticed our group emerging from the canyon. "Childe, why are you here?" The leader was a captain, and after seeing our group coming, he hurriedly greeted him.

"I can't sleep, come and see, how is it, it's okay?" I looked at the layout here, and there were hundreds of rough and simple horses in the outer ring, blocking the entrance to the entire canyon, and their tent was naturally set up at the mouth of the canyon behind the horses.

"Don't worry, Childe, it's nothing, besides, our side has assigned a team to be placed on that path, if there are really rebels who want to go there, they are looking for death." The squad leader said triumphantly.

"By the way, Gongzi, Li Yuanfang has already sent someone to send news, they are divided into three parts, one is going to Yichuan County to investigate, the other is to investigate in the Huanglong area, and there is another route led by him to investigate in the Luochuan area, but there is no news for the time being."

"Well, no news is good news." Ben Gongzi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and after greeting these night guards, he was about to turn around, when he heard the sound of galloping hooves, which were coming from due north.

The leader of the trilogy immediately lit the rocket on the torch next to him, shot it in the air, and watched the rocket draw a beautiful arc in the sky, and then fell down, the sound of the horse's hooves over there paused slightly, and a sharp whistle came. "Looks like there's news."

There is really news, this is news from the direction of Yichuan County, it turns out that the emperor Liu Jialun felt that his strength was insufficient, and decided to unite with those Jihu who lived in the area of Yan'an County.

Hearing the news, I gasped, and leaned, this time, it's really troublesome. This bad news couldn't be worse, so that Ben Gongzi couldn't help but secretly congratulate himself that he was fortunate to realize in time and was already making preparations, otherwise, the consequences would be too serious.

The so-called Ji Hu, also known as the mountain Hu, Buluo Ji, originated from the Southern Xiongnu, in the Northern and Southern Dynasties moved to Shanxi, the valley of seven or eight hundred miles in the north of Shaanxi, the cultivation is prosperous, in addition to a part of them continue to graze, there are also many people engaged in agricultural production, supplemented by sericulture, with linen cloth as clothing, mixed with the Han people.

Liu Lisheng, the leader of Jihu in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and Liu Wuduo, the leader of Jihu in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and his grandson, Liu Wuduo, the leader of Jihu in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, successively proclaimed themselves emperors and established separatist regimes. At the beginning of Wu Cheng, Yanzhou Jihu Hao Abao, wolf skin led his species, attached to the Qi family. Abao signed himself as prime minister, wolf skin signed himself as Zhuguo, and was influenced by Liu Sande, his other department. Zhu Guodou Lu Ning supervised the army to break it.

In the second year, the wolf skin and other remnants rebelled, and the general Han Guo broke it. In Baoding, away from Shisheng Hu Shu Koufen North, Xunzhou Thorn Shi Wei Xiaokuan was in danger to build a city and set up food for soldiers to curb its way. and Yang Zhong and the Turkic war, Ji Hu and others refused to travel and did not provide food. Loyalty is to deceive its chieftains, Yun and the Turks return to the army to ask for it, and the chieftains are afraid, but they are willing to give back.

Later, Zhu Hu in Danzhou, Suizhou and other ministries, and Hao Saburo and others in Puchuan often rebelled against their fate, and reverted to Xi Zhen, Xin Wei, Yu Yan, etc., and scattered their species. In the second year of Tianhe, Yuwensheng, the governor of Yanzhou, led the city of Yinchuan, Ji Hu Bai Yu Jiutong, Qiao Shiluo and others wanted to invite the attack, and Sheng begged to behead him. and break his handsomeness, Qiao San is not equal. In five years, Liu Xiong, the opening of the government, went out of Suizhou and inspected the North Sichuan Road. Ji Hu Shuai Bailang and Qiao Su do the same river counterbattle, and Xiong Fu broke it.
