Chapter 585: Huang Rushi's Ability!
Because these young men who didn't know martial arts followed, their forward speed became very slow, and it seemed that it would take more than half a day in just a few tens of miles. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so after walking for less than an hour, all the soldiers began to get impatient.
Liu Heng simply ordered to leave thousands of soldiers of the new regiment to accompany these young men and women to hurry slowly, and he took Razpur and the high priest Shuha in a chariot, and led the veterans to go first.
The soldiers split into two ways, and their speed immediately increased. The soldiers either rode the demon bear, or rode the black-scaled horses they had obtained, shouting and shouting freely, so that they were not happy.
In less than half an hour, a group of people had already set foot on Wangqiwei Mountain.
The spies who stayed here had already seen them, and went to talk to Huang Rushi, and when they arrived, Huang Rushi was waiting at the foot of the mountain early.
"You opened this road in one night?"
Liu Heng raised his eyes and looked over, only to see a large avenue surrounding Qiwei Mountain, but other than that, he didn't see any other changes, so he couldn't help frowning and asked.
"Of course, it's more than that. Huang Rushi asked Liu Heng to move forward, and said with a smile: "Benefactor, please take a closer look, this avenue is divided into two roads, you can enter and exit from the left, not only paved smoothly, but also sink deeply, and it will be more convenient when the car is transported." We also explored the geomorphology and geology of Wangqiwei Mountain, found the most suitable location for building the city, and also found the stone materials for building the city. ”
"That's good. ”
Liu Heng nodded, and didn't praise it too much, just looked at it more carefully. After all, hearing is false, seeing is believing, no matter how good Huang Rushi says, it doesn't work, or you can only feel at ease if you see it with your own eyes.
The newly opened mountain road is very wide, and I don't know how Huang Rushi did it, it does look very smooth and solid. Although Huang Rushi did not let the army step on it and was only allowed to take the path next to it, Liu Heng deliberately got out of the car and walked to the mountain road to try it, so that he could be sure that what he saw was true.
"Not bad, not bad. Liu Heng praised this at this time, after all, he did this step overnight, it can be seen that Huang Rushi is really attentive, but then he asked: "You said that you use this mountain road to transport stones, but the stone is at least 10,000 catties, I'm afraid that only soldiers above the martial arts realm can carry it, and they may make the mountain road bumpy and uneven after a few times, what's the use of paving it so well?"
"The benefactor does not know that the soldiers have other uses, and they are not needed to carry stones. Huang Rushi smiled, quite smug, "One of the designs, I will see the car transporting the stone later, and then let me tell the benefactor in detail." ”
"Okay, I'll see what you're up to. Liu Heng glanced at him and said.
The mountain road was opened, and it was really much more convenient to go up the mountain, but unfortunately it was a longer road than going straight ahead, and it was still half an hour when I reached the top of the mountain.
This was originally the cave of the snake third lady's nest of demon bandits, but after a night, when Liu Heng saw it again, it had changed greatly.
The house next to the cave was used as a makeshift workshop, and the craftsmen, including the more than 100 soldiers sent to protect them, were busy. Some of them were running around, as if to demarcate the new city, while many more were banging in front of the workshop, working intensively to build a simple and unbridled car.
"Behold, this is what I call a stone cart. ”
Huang Rushi walked to the front of the workshop and explained with a radiant face: "At night, I sent the soldiers who escorted us to open up the mountain road, and the trees on the original road were not wasted, and a little cutting can be made into this kind of stone truck. ”
Liu Heng looked at it, he had never seen such a simple car.
The so-called car didn't even have wheels, so it was replaced by thick logs, and the axles were left a little more on both sides, and then stuck into the baffles on both sides. The body is simpler, directly on all four sides of the baffle, and two hits are made in front, which shows that it should still be pulled by livestock.
At first glance, it was indeed a car, but it was so rough that anyone who looked at it felt awkward, and Liu Heng was speechless the more he looked at it, and he couldn't help but be deeply suspicious.
Is this Huang Confucian, is it really a descendant of a craftsman who is famous for his craftsmanship?
"Benefactor, don't look at this stone cart that doesn't look good, but it's better to use. ”
Huang Rushi could obviously guess the muttering in the hearts of the soldiers, and slapped a stone truck and said with a smile: "This car is solid enough to withstand the toss of 10,000 catties of boulders." Let these demon bears or BMWs pull in the front, and then let those young people push in the back, although it is not as fast as the speed of the strong warriors, as long as the number is enough, it is enough to transport stones instead of them. ”
Liu Heng tried it himself, only to find that the car was far lighter than it looked, and it was pushed almost without much force. Originally, he thought that those thick rolling logs as wheels looked very heavy, but he didn't expect it to be so easy to get started, so light that Liu Heng almost couldn't feel their weight.
From this, he found that this seemingly crude stone truck was not simple, it seemed to be subtle, and he had more respect for Huang Rushi.
Just by this car, it can be seen that Huang Rushi does have real skills.
"In this way, the soldiers above the martial arts realm will be able to spare their hands and concentrate on doing things that must be done for them, such as digging the foundation of the city, digging stones, and so on. Huang Rushi explained with a smile.
Liu Heng nodded again and again when he heard this, and then hugged his fist at him, "Mr. is really talented, in this way, the speed of building the city will indeed be much faster." ”
After the division of labor, regardless of whether they have martial arts or not, everyone can come in handy, and the efficiency will naturally be greatly improved.
Without waiting for Huang Rushi to be modest, Liu Heng then said solemnly: "Before I came, I have already told everyone that the whole army, including me, is sent by Mr. What needs to be done, Mr. just orders." ”
"This. ”
Huang Rushi was moved, and originally wanted to refuse, but then Liu Heng reiterated again, he stopped grinding and saluted Liu Heng deeply, "The benefactor believes in me so much, how dare I be hypocritical again, I will definitely do this matter wholeheartedly, so as to live up to the benefactor's trust." ”
Liu Henglang smiled and helped him up, "That's right." ”
Although Liu Heng said this, Huang Rushi still didn't really treat Liu Heng as an ordinary soldier, and after a little muttering, he said to the other soldiers: "Divide half of the people to wait for the dispatch of other craftsmen to prepare to open the mountain and open up the foundation." ”
After all, he lacked prestige in the army, and when he heard his order, the soldiers looked at each other, but no one answered for a long time. But then they noticed that Liu Heng's eyes gradually became stern, so they were reluctant, and after a chaotic promise, they were divided into half of the people after a while, and scattered around.
Liu Heng sank his face when he saw this, "Where is the Overseer?"
"The subordinates are here!"
At the same time, two voices of response came out, but when He Bo and the senior heard this, they both subconsciously agreed, and only then did they feel embarrassed when they came back to their senses. Originally, it was said that the senior was about to step down from his position as overseer and take over as the commander of a regiment, and He Bo would also take over his position as overseer, but at that time, the order was given, and no one expected that after the battle, he would have to be busy building the city, so the matter was delayed.
Now that the two of them are not up or down, they are both right and wrong at this moment, and Rao is Liu Heng is also stunned. However, where would he be stumped by such a small matter, and after a little thought, he said: "It's okay in this way, the four major regiment commanders stay here to supervise the army, and He Sheng and the other half of the regiment deputies will also take on the post of overseer." ”
"Yes!"
The two agreed loudly in unison.
"You guys are watching, whoever dares to disobey Mr. Huang's orders, and whoever dares to work and not contribute, will be severely punished!"
"Yes!"
These two sentences of reply made this group of soldiers commotion, and then no one dared to be perfunctory, and finally looked more serious.
"It's really a bunch of donkeys, and if you don't clean it up, you won't listen to people. ”
Liu Heng snorted coldly, scolded, and then said to Huang Rushi: "What else does Mr. have to say?"
If this kind of thing were said from someone else's mouth, Bao Buqi would immediately provoke a mutiny, and he would be beaten to death on the spot by this group of soldiers and bandits. But at this moment, it was Liu Heng who scolded him, and all the soldiers were smiling, unconsciously harsh, and Huang Rushi was also emotional.
"The benefactor and the rest of the soldiers, please come down the mountain with me, we should go to the stone field, and we need your help to dig the stones. If Huang Rushi came to the world, he naturally didn't dare to scold the soldiers like Liu Heng, and said with a kind smile.
Liu Heng asked with his arm, "Mr. get in the car and go with me." ”
He ignored Huang Rushi's repeated excuses, and took Huang Rushi into the chariot irresistibly, and then led the remaining half of the soldiers down the mountain again.
"Benefactor, look, this is the blueprint of the new city. ”
In the car, Huang Rushi spread out a brocade scroll, which was full of complex line drawings, Liu Heng couldn't understand it at all, but he also roughly saw the outline of a city.
"The city occupies an area of five miles in length and width, in addition to the simplest city circle, I have also reserved a place to add a stronger city circle in the future, as long as the materials are enough, it can be replenished soon...... Because it may have to resist Hu Qi, the city wall must be thick enough, but the construction period has to be rushed, and I think I am afraid it will have to be divided into two parts. ”
Huang Rushi carefully explained to Liu Heng, "First hurry up to build a layer of outer wall, if there is enough time, let's continue to build the inner wall, two or even three or four layers, one day, this wall can be so thick that Hu Qi is unwilling to attack." ”
"That's good, that's good. ”
Liu Heng nodded again and again, and agreed in his heart.
Because in his heart, this city is the foundation of the future, and the enemies he will have to deal with in the future may be far more than just Hu Qi. If things really develop as he expected, the cruelty of the struggle for the position of the next saint may far exceed everyone's expectations, and under such worries, the stronger the city will be, the better.
Of course, these thoughts are buried deep in his heart, and he will definitely not reveal them to outsiders at will.
Thinking of this, he added, "It's best to leave more places to build walls and city formations, and it would be better if you could finally resist the overlord's attack." ”
Huang Rushi couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, because he never thought that the small city needed to be built to such a strong degree, because no matter how you look at it, there is no need to do so. However, seeing that Liu Heng was serious, it didn't seem like he was joking, so he didn't ask much, and began to fall into deep thought, constantly changing the drawings.
When he got to the foot of the mountain, Liu Heng didn't bother him, and continued to walk along the avenue of the same pattern, until he reached the simple stone house at the end of the avenue in front of him, and he heard Huang Rushi's slightly tired voice.
"Benefactor, if you want to build a city to the extent that it can withstand the attack of the overlord, it is comparable to the border city of a great country. In this way, there must be at least ten layers of city walls, and there must also be a city circle at the overlord level. Huang Rushi said helplessly: "The city wall is easy to manage, as long as there is enough time, but the city formation is more critical, but I can't do anything." ”
Liu Heng frowned when he heard this, and then said, "I'll think of a way to do this, you can leave it alone." And we don't have to think about it overnight, it's a big deal to find one to use first, and then slowly change to a better one in the future. I'm just asking you, how effective is the formation of an ordinary city with a ten-story city wall?"
"The ordinary city formation is considered a martial artist level, and it can only resist the attack of the blood phase of the martial artist realm battle formation, and the ten-story city wall may be able to barely improve a little, so delay the appearance of the battle array blood phase that has just entered the great martial artist realm for two or three days. Speaking of these estimates, Huang Rushi was even more hesitant and hesitant, and said with a wry smile: "I can only infer from experience, and I can't say what it is." ”
There is also a difference between strength and weakness in the formation of the city, most of the formations of ordinary cities are as Huang Rushi said, that is, the level of martial artists, and the formation of the border gate city is stronger, and it can reach the overlord level.
The level of this city formation, such as the overlord-level border gate city formation, is claimed to be able to resist the attack of the master of the overlord realm, and if it encounters the blood phase of the battle formation of the overlord realm, it can also be strong for ten days and half a month, and the city formations of other levels are similar to this.
It is precisely because of the existence of such a powerful city that it can deter strong enemies from all sides and keep one side safe.
"The overlord powerhouse of the Hu State and the army of the same strength are all contained by the strong people of the demon clan, even if this is not the case, Great Xia also has corresponding strongmen, so generally speaking, the strong people of the overlord realm will never personally attack the cities of all parties. So the benefactor, in my opinion, is actually enough to reach this level......" Huang Rushi saw Liu Heng's eyebrows frowning more and more, and couldn't help but persuade.
"Let's build it like this. Liu Heng snapped up, and then laughed, "The city we live in by ourselves, after all, it is better to be prepared." ”
said so, but Huang Rushi could clearly feel that Liu Heng still had unknown worries, but since he didn't want to say it clearly, Huang Rushi didn't ask much and responded silently.
"This rocky land covers an extremely wide area, and the stone is also very strong, and the thickness of one palm can withstand the attack of the peak of martial arts, if it weighs 10,000 catties, it is enough to see a hundred palms square, and the stone alone is enough to give the martial arts a headache. Huang Rushi asked Liu Heng to get out of the car, and picked up a piece of stone for Liu Heng to check, "This stone has an excellent effect on building a city wall, and I roughly estimate that the stone reserves should be sufficient, presumably enough to build a ten-story city wall." ”
Liu Heng crushed the stone in his hand with a slight force, of course, this was not because the stone texture was too poor, but because Liu Heng's strength was too terrifying. When he felt it carefully, he knew that Huang Rushi was not talking nonsense, and he had to force him to crush it with a slight force, which was enough to prove that the texture of the stone was indeed very good.
"It would be nice to find something stronger. ”
Although he knew that Huang Rushi must have inspected a lot of stones in the vicinity before choosing here, it must be the best stone in the vicinity, but Liu Heng was inevitably greedy, and after a slight groan, he said: "Do it here first, Mr. Trouble will continue to search nearby, and strive to find better stones." ”
Ever since he knew how high Liu Heng's requirements and expectations for the city were, Huang Rushi thought that there would be such a thing, and nodded without hesitation when he heard this, "I should do my best." ”
"Okay!" Liu Heng shouted happily, "Brothers, it's time for us to do it!"
Huang Rushi was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Benefactor, slow down!" (To be continued.) )
