Steve was stunned when he heard Shadow Dance's voice, because he couldn't see Shadow Dance's face, and Shadow Dance was wearing a wide robe, so he didn't know that Shadow Dance was a woman.

When Steve heard that Wang Yong was their commander, he turned his head to look at Wang Yong, and then stood up and saluted and said, "Hello, sir." Then, I couldn't help but be curious, and said hesitantly, "I wonder if this chief's badge can be shown to me?" Wang Yong angrily threw his badge to Steve.

Steve took Wang Yong's badge and looked at it over and over again for a long time, and finally scratched his head and asked embarrassedly: "I don't know what to call the chief, I've never seen this kind of badge." ”

Qingling couldn't help but giggle next to him, and walked up to Steve and said mischievously, "You're done, you don't even know the lord of the Seaside Province, your chief will definitely slap your ass." Listening to the light words, Steve took the badge and looked at it carefully, and then looked at Wang Yong with a look of disbelief.

Seeing Steve's expression, Wang Yong felt depressed in his heart, but he couldn't complain about others, because he had been busy with the construction of the territory, and basically did not participate in the reorganization and expansion of the army, and it could be said that there was almost no official appearance in front of the soldiers.

Just when Wang Yong didn't know what to say, Brandt reluctantly walked over, and was stunned after seeing Wang Yong, he only heard that the person with the special badge wanted to see him, but he didn't expect that the person who came would be Wang Yong. Brandt wondered, "Didn't you just have a meeting and you saw each other? Why is the boss here again?"

Brandt walked up to Wang Yong in a few steps, saluted and said, "Boss, why are you here?

Stephen knew that Brant was the construction supervisor of the territory and belonged to the upper echelons of the territory, and seeing that he was respectful to Wang Yong, and also called him the boss, Steve took a look and looked at Wang Yong, who was younger than himself. There was a wave of embarrassment and admiration on his face.

Wang Yong saw Steve's expression in his eyes, smiled smugly, and then said to Brandt: "It's not a big deal, I just want to go to the city wall to see, do you have time? If you have time, let's go together, if there is anything that needs to be changed, I can tell you more clearly, by the way, what about Norman?"

Brandt thought for a moment and said to one of his subordinates who came with him: "You go and look at the changes I just explained, and the boss and I will go to the city wall to have a look." I'll be back in a minute. The man nodded, saluted Wang Yong, and turned to leave.

Brandt said to Wang Yong again: "After the meeting is over, Norman will go to the Acropolis, and after finishing the finishing work of the city wall, he will rush back with the workers there." ”

Wang Yong nodded and didn't say anything, but asked Steve, "Can we pass?"

Steve scratched his head and smiled, and felt that this was a bit rude, so he hurriedly stood up and saluted and said, "Of course, sir!" Wang Yong heard someone call himself chief for the first time, and he felt very good, and his heart was happy.

Wang Yong patted Steve on the shoulder and said, "You're very good." My brothers are also very good, let's go, take a few people with me to the city wall to have a look. Steve was very glad to see that Wang Yong did not blame himself for what had just happened. hurriedly called two more clever subordinates to follow Wang Yong and his party to the city wall not far away.

Accompanied and introduced by Brant, Wang Yong and others walked up the 25-meter-high city wall along the pedal city road, looking at the wide military road on the city wall that can accommodate two carriages in parallel, Wang Yong was very satisfied.

Standing on the battlements on the outer edge of the city wall and looking out. It's like standing in a five- or six-storey building, with a condescending view and a wide field of vision, and a lot of mood is broadened.

I patted the wall stack, which was slightly shorter and limited than myself. Wang Yong took out a war hammer in the surprised eyes of everyone, slammed it and slammed it hard.

After a muffled sound, Wang Yong shook his right hand, which was numb from the shock, and went to the place where he had just been knocked to take a look, and saw that there was only a white spot the size of a hammer left by a strong squeezing, and there was no serious damage such as cracks in the corners of several soybean-sized damages. ”

Seeing Brant feeling the negligible damage on the wall with a distressed face, Wang Yong smiled and said, "It's quite sturdy." ”

Brandt said with a bitter face: "Boss, we are all mixing cement with Billy according to your requirements, absolutely no corners are cut, and all the building materials on the city wall are added with alchemical items, which is stronger than ordinary cement." ”

Wang Yong shrugged his shoulders, ignoring the resentment on Brandt's face, he took the hammer wherever he went, and every time Wang Yong raised and dropped the hammer, Brandt would tremble, as if the hammer was not knocked on the city wall, but on his body, which made Brandt sigh for a long time.

Wang Yong took the hammer all the way to the arrow tower on the city wall that protruded outward, looked up at the two-story arrow tower and walked in without hesitation, and then used the hammer to knock it from the first floor to the second floor, and finally stood on the diffraction platform and looked left and right, and then said to Brandt: "Very good, both the shooting angle and the protective measures are in place, by the way, how many such arrow towers are there on the city wall?"

Brant replied, "The four walls plus the urn city at the east and south gates have fifty-five arrow towers, eight corner towers, six gate towers, and six gate towers. ”

Wang Yong looked at the arrow towers that stood every short distance, and said with a surprised face: "Damn, there are so many?"

Brant rolled his eyes and muttered to himself: "This is still a lot of reduction, if you follow the drawings you designed before, the city walls will be occupied by arrow towers." ”

Brant asked with some doubt and puzzlement: "Boss, is it useful to get so many arrow towers?" I see that there is nothing on the walls of other cities, and don't people also use crossbow arrows on the city walls to block the attacking enemies?"

Wang Yong didn't explain anything to Brant's question, but just smiled and said, "Hehe, you'll know when the time comes." ”

Qingling looked at the wide arrow tower curiously, and then pulled Wang Yong's sleeve and asked, "Boss, how many people can be loaded in such a big arrow tower?" ”

Being reminded by Qingling, Wang Yong thought of this question, then frowned, and counted with his fingers: "Ten people are stationed on each floor, each arrow tower needs twenty people, fifty-five arrow towers need one thousand and one hundred people, and then counting the changing of guards or something, three thousand people are enough, this is still wartime staffing, if it is peacetime, one or two hundred people is enough." Counting the defensive strength on the city wall, when the enemy is attacking the city, it will take at least two brigades of 200 people for less than 50 meters, at least 3,000 people for the 800-meter city wall, and 12,000 people for the four walls. "The more Wang Yong calculated, the more uncertain he became, because the troops transferred to Seaside City only had 10,000 'regular troops' and 20,000 'reserves' with incomplete equipment, so there were not enough manpower.

Shadow Dance thought for a while and said, "Boss, it's not your case, we have few people now, but the number of enemies is not large, they can't attack the four walls at the same time, we just need to mobilize the main force to defend the walls that the enemy focuses on, and only need to leave a small number of troops to defend the other places." After listening to Shadow Dance's analysis, Wang Yong reacted and felt that what Shadow Dance said was very reasonable.

Captain Steve, who was on the side, was surprised when he heard the numbers calculated by Wang Yong, and Wang Yong asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Steve nodded and said, "Yes, we already knew it when we joined the army." ”

Wang Yong asked puzzledly: "Then you are still so surprised?"

Steve replied, "Oh, my friend used to be a city defense in Liezhi City, and I heard him say that the city defense army in Liezhi City is only 8,000 people, and according to your calculations, sir, we need more than 10,000 people for one post in Seaside City, I am surprised that our Seaside City is so big." ”

Wang Yong smiled, feeling a little proud, at the beginning Wang Yong planned to build the largest city in the whole continent. However, Wang Yong was proud and a little depressed at the same time, because he did not consider the problem of manpower needed for defense at the beginning, and now the largest city is available, but the corresponding defense manpower is not enough, Wang Yong has to sigh that 'there is an advantage and a disadvantage' This sentence is not wrong at all.

Seeing that Steve regained his composure and composure, Wang Yong put his arm around his shoulders and asked, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, there is going to be a war now, so you are not afraid? No one wants to leave? It doesn't matter, to be honest, there are no lords and soldiers now, let's just take it as a small talk." ”

Steve was infected by Wang Yong's affinity, and relaxed his tense nerves when facing the commander and said: "Actually, it's false to say that you are not afraid, but people will die in battle, although we are logistics soldiers, it is also very dangerous." ”

Wang Yong asked curiously: "Then why did you come to join the army even when you knew you were going to fight?"

Steve shrugged his shoulders and said, "My family is all here, and my two older brothers have also found good jobs, and the income is much better than before." And I feel that our seaside is very different from other places, and I think it's not as dark as other places. I'm not flattering you, since I came here, I haven't seen or heard of any ordinary people like us being oppressed by the powerful, I think this kind of life is very good, and it is also what we once longed for, so no one in my family and I plan to leave. The two soldiers who came with Steve also nodded their heads, agreeing with Steve's statement.

Wang Yong had an indescribable feeling in his heart when he heard this, both the joy of being recognized and the sympathy for those who had been oppressed by the nobles in the past. (To be continued......)
