"Why haven't you come up yet?"

"If you don't come up again, there will be no good show!"

Just as Wu Yong was heading towards a counterweight block tower crane, Shen Wan'er walked down the city wall and asked.

Only then did Wu Yong realize that he almost missed a big incident because he was in a hurry to prove that he was not bragging.

The current Yanmen Pass can be said to be full of Northern Yuan spies.

The key is that in order to smoothly spread the news that Ye Qing wanted to tell Wang Baobao to Wang Baobao's ears, their agents must also deliberately let go of the fish that slipped through the net.

If these fish that slipped through the net saw him operate the counterweight block tower crane, it would be more than worth the loss.

Thinking of this, Wu Yong walked back to Zhu Yuanzhang and said with a light smile: "After the war, you will know if I am bragging, but at that time, you should also go back to Yingtianfu." ”

"Of course, whether I'm bragging on this side or not has nothing to do with you."

"Let's go, let's go to the city to watch a play."

Without waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to react, Wu Yong simply turned around and went to the city.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood in place, looking at Wu Yong's back, although he was very angry, he only nodded helplessly.

"You're right, it really has nothing to do with us, who told us to be Master Guo now!"

While Zhu Yuanzhang followed Wu Yong to the city, he still used his afterglow to look at the shelf in the dark night, which looked like an elephant's trunk.

Since Master Wu didn't show him a demonstration, he had to analyze for himself whether this thing had such a miraculous effect.

If this city wall is really built quickly and well, it should be enough to prove that this thing does have the ability to lift tens of thousands of pounds.

As for whether this thing can be used as a trebuchet, and whether it has a longer range than a cannon, it must be proved by seeing is believing.

It's a pity that he can't witness this scene with his own eyes.

If nothing else, he shouldn't have been able to wait until then!

But it doesn't matter, when it's time to start a war, Xu Da will come to help him witness, and he can ask Xu Da when the time comes!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer glanced at the 'elephant's trunk' in the dark night, and went straight to the city gatehouse!

But as soon as he got on the city wall, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that something was wrong.

Not only did he feel wrong, but even Mao Xiang felt that it was wrong.

In their eyes, on this wall of nearly four zhang wide, the guards did not meet the prescribed requirements at all, and they were not well equipped.

Of course, the lack of sophistication in their eyes refers to the fact that the equipment of these soldiers is the same as that of other Ming border troops, and it is not a product of the Yanmen Arsenal.

Not only that, but on the city wall that is so long and wide, there is not a single cannon.

Immediately afterward, the two immediately looked out of the city.

Although there are no lights outside the castle, you can see the terrain clearly through the full moon and summer stars.

In the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang, the natural mountain connected at both ends of the city wall is a giant 'eight' big opening.

This Yanmen Gate Gate is equivalent to closing the smallest opening.

But beyond the city walls, there is an endless plain terrain, which is really the kind that has no slopes at all, and it can't be more flat.

If they don't stop, the enemy's cavalry can completely close their eyes and rush under the city walls!

Of course, although there are no natural earthen slopes, there are man-made structures dedicated to blocking cavalry.

And this artificially built building dedicated to blocking cavalry is the masterpiece of the first Yanmen Pass guard since the Tang Dynasty built the pass.

It is these artificially built buildings that make this easy to attack and difficult to defend place, which does not affect the passage of business and travel in peacetime, but also plays a role in making it impossible for the enemy's cavalry to drive straight into it in wartime!

Zhu Yuanzhang also consulted relevant historical materials, and he also wanted to know who the first guard general appointed by Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, was.

What kind of talent is it, leaving such an impregnable Yanmen Pass for future generations!

Not bad

Even so, Yanmen Pass has also been breached, but it is definitely not that the gate is not well repaired, but that the guards and defenders of Yanmen Pass at that time are not good.

Of course, the main thing is that the ruling court at that time could not do it!

But he checked for a long time, and he couldn't find out who his surname was!

It's as if the first guard of this Yanmen Pass was deliberately erased by the historian whose name is there, only his deeds, not his name!

Although Zhu Yuanzhang didn't find out who it was, he still admired this general, and even more envied Li Shimin for having such a good general.

At that time, he still thought that it would be good if he had this kind of general who knew how to build military and how to lead troops to fight.

It's a pity that the emperor has been in office for six years, and he still hasn't met such a talent.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Ye Qing again!

Ye Qing is a talent who understands ordnance manufacturing, but it's a pity that he doesn't know how to command a war!

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang had such an idea, he immediately frowned again.

"How can we be sorry that he won't lead troops to war?"

"We want people who can write to settle the world, and we also want people who can go to Ma to set the world, but we definitely can't have people who can both write and write to settle the world, and can also go to Ma Ding Qiankun!"

“.”

A moment later,

Zhu Yuanzhang came directly, the guard standing downstairs at the city gate.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked solemnly: "In such a dangerous place, there are so few people guarding it, and there is not a single cannon?" ”

"What do you want to do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's continuous questioning made the general look confused.

If he hadn't known that this middle-aged strong man was the guest of honor of their Lord Ye, he would definitely lift it up and throw it under the city wall and fall to his death.

A cheap businessman dares to ignore military affairs?

It's just that I can't find a place to reincarnate if I want to die, so I'm here to let him help me reincarnate!

The guard general just looked sharp and said: "After you put on the standard armor of the three military generals, you will ask General Ben." ”

"If you're not Lord Ye's guest, you're dead!"

Behind Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma looked at this scene and frowned directly.

She knew that her family was heavy and had forgotten her current identity.

But in the face of this situation, she was embarrassed to speak.

In her opinion, she climbed the city wall as a female streamer, which was already regarded as a face given to Ye Qing by these generals.

I'm afraid that as soon as she speaks, these generals won't even give Ye Qing face.

There was no way, she had to give Mao Xiang a look and let Mao Xiang say good things to the guard.

But before Mao Xiang could speak, Wu Yong ran down to urge them.

In this way, the group followed Wu Yong and successfully came to the third floor of the gate tower of Yanmen Guanzhongmen.

After Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still angry, saw Ye Qing, he directly asked unceremoniously: "Lord Ye, how can this be so defended?" ”

"This gate is a difficult place to defend and easy to attack, if it is not difficult to defend, the first guard of the Tang Dynasty will not build an iron-clad gate."

"How can you defend such a place that is so beneficial to the enemy and not to yourself?"

"There is not a single cannon you built!"

When Ye Qing heard this, he also reaffirmed his identity.

is really a veteran who has been Zhu Yuanzhang's personal soldier, and he can really see something.

Faced with this problem, Ye Qing thought to himself, 'I am the first guard of the Tang Dynasty, and the gate and gate of this Yanmen Pass were designed and built by me, can I still not know that this place is difficult to defend and easy to attack?' ’

Thinking of this, Ye Qing just said lightly: "This platoon of troops is the business of the generals of the guard, what does it have to do with this officer?" ”

"It's the official's business to catch the spies, and this defense is none of the official's business."

As soon as the words fell, Ye Qing went upstairs alone.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye Qing's back, and he was also angry enough, but he really couldn't blame him for anything.

It's really none of his business!

"Look, sir."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked in the direction of Mao Xiang's finger, and found that there were a lot of good things hidden in this city tower.

Everywhere there were neatly stacked bows and arrows, everywhere there were neatly arranged standard sabers, everywhere there were armor folded on shelves.

For these weapons and armor, Zhu Yuanzhang is too familiar.

"It's all made by the Yanmen Arsenal?"

"Good things are hidden inside, but on the surface, they are all equipped with the previous weapons and armor, and the defense is sparse?"

"This general in charge of arming is it deliberate?"

“.”

After Zhu Yuanzhang realized this, he immediately had a bottom in his heart.

Not only that, but he even wanted to get to know the general in charge of arming.

Because he knows that those who dare to deliberately hide and sell flaws must be the ones who have a backhand.

He wondered what kind of back hand this general had left?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang followed up to find Ye Qing, but found that Ye Qing had climbed to the roof of the city gate tower and was sitting on the roof beam.

This kind of roof-climbing thing, women must not be able to do it.

Queen Ma and Shen Wan'er came to the corridor on the third floor, blowing the night breeze from outside the Saiwai, looking at the unique starry sky.

And Zhu Yuanzhang, Mao Xiang and Wu Yong, climbed onto the roof one after another.

Under the white moonlight,

Zhu Yuanzhang and Ye Qing sat on the top beam of the highest roof in the city, and they all turned their backs to the outside of the city, facing the lights of thousands of homes within the city wall.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the lights of these thousands of homes condescendingly, and forgot to inquire about the name of the guard for a while.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know the phrase 'the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies', but he already has feelings in this regard.

But at this time,

Ye Qing suddenly asked: "Lao Guo, how do you feel about looking at the night view of the two border trade streets from here, as well as the night view of the county town in the rear?" ”

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, when Ye Qing asked this question, it could be said that the temperament of the whole person had changed.

Preciseness!

Very rigorous!

If you give him a set of armor, he really has the feeling of a 'lonely city general'!

Because of this, Zhu Yuanzhang has also become rigorous, and he seems to have found the feeling of armor on his body!

"It's beautiful, it's magnificent, it's spectacular, and I really want to protect this hard-won lights!"

When Ye Qing heard such an answer, he directly threw a wine bag in front of him: "It's very uncultured, but it's also very good, this is the official's good wine, please drink it." ”

After Zhu Yuanzhang took the wine bag, he just smiled with satisfaction, and finally felt that he Ye Qing was not annoying.

But before he could start drinking, he was stunned by the scene in front of him!.

I ask for the support of the officials, and ask for the support of recommended tickets, monthly passes, and rewards, thank you!
