Chapter four hundred and fifty four.
this……"
It's really a magic trick of Qingzhou guys. A few days ago, it was still a sticky plaster, but it turned gray and white in a few days. You can still look at the huge stones that nodded with pebbles! And you knocked it with your fist, it was hard. If it weren't for your own hands and you could see it with your own eyes, if anyone outsiders would think this was a natural stone block!
But the stone block is too big! It is surrounded by east, west, south and north, which is more than a thousand meters long. Later, the large wooden board used for the construction of sea ships in Weigang was reinforced on the edge of the trench. It was more than half a meter higher than the ground. A steel bar snorted, and a hard and long cement wall emerged.
I have never seen how the ugly stone buildings in Puyang City and Chengli were built before, but now I see it. I stroked my hands with the hard walls. The bearded man was full of sighs. It doesn’t matter how strong the walls are. What’s important is that in just three days, a three-meter-long foundation can be raised, and half a meter of the city wall is exposed. In less than a month, these Qingzhou people can build a solid fortress out of thin air. Not to mention that in this endless view of Liaodong, even the Central Plains, this kind of construction technology is amazing.
Especially in military affairs!
Imagine that the two warlords compete for a group of disciples, and this warlord was still ramming the foundation with three-combination earth. Then the warlord city had already risen. If you repair the city, I will attack you. If your army attacks me, I will hide in the repaired city. Will you be angry? Will you be angry?
This is simply a magic weapon for daddy competition!
"Hey, Lao San Yan! Why are you doing while standing there? You're not fucking working quickly. Don't you want tonight's centimeter? You're not fucking eating?"
Just how could the strong man be stunned? On the other side, the contractor of Qingzhou man, the supervisor, was already shouting unceremoniously. He was shocked. The strong man quickly clasped his fists, then pushed up the wheelbarrow, and then transported the cement nailed wooden boards upwards.
Looking at his back, the Qingzhou contractor shouted angrily again: "Why is Bai so big? He is always lazy, and he looks ugly, so he is ugly! What's his name? Yan Liang!"
…………
As the city walls grew, the enthusiasm of the Han people outside the Great Wall increased. With the protection of the city walls, at least there was no need to worry about the Hu people outside the Great Wall coming to plunder, or the wild wolves that were more terrible than the Hu people attacked. Moreover, it was inherited from the ideas of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Those who live in the city were called Chinese people, and those who live outside the city were called savages! In terms of identity, Chinese people were one head taller than savages.
Fill the pit! Use the ash soil from Qingzhou to mix sand and stones evenly, then transport it to the city wall with a wheelbarrow, pour it on the wall with steel bars, then nail the board, and then water it after it is dry. In less than a month, it stands in Liaodong outside the border, and the city more than eight meters high rises from the ground.
If it was more than a thousand hundred years later, not far from here, Zu Dashou, who was ordered to build Dalinghe City, would be envious of this scene. He brought more than 50,000 soldiers and civilians to build Dalinghe City for a year, but he failed to build Dalinghe City. As a result, Huang Taiji led his men and brought the city to make dumplings. He was so hungry that people were eating people. The fortress that was originally used to extend into the enemy territory in the form of a fortress to defeat the Jurchens also became a bargaining chip used by Huang Taiji to siege the city and defeat the more than 50,000 Ming troops in one fell swoop.
However, Zu Dashou couldn't even envy him. In addition to the cement formula, Wang Hou also spent a few years to form a set of industrial chains in Qingzhou. The corruption form of the Ming Dynasty was extremely built!
After the city wall is built, the next step is to repair some small flexibility, such as battlements, Wang Hou wants to build a female wall for arrows on the outer side of the entire city wall.
Next is the city tower. Nowadays, there are no firearms that destroy the city on a large scale, and the arrow tower is still a very powerful defensive weapon. Imagine the grassland people who are good at shooting outside the city are running like moving ants, but they are like dogs biting hedgehogs. They have no idea how to start facing the entire city tower. However, the defenders defending the city are shooting out with the narrow gun holes of the arrow tower, holding crossbows and whizzing arrows.
No matter whether you can shoot someone to death or not, you will be angry to death first!
This configuration is not only the Xianbei Wuhuan, the nomadic peoples, but also the Central Plains army will have a headache even if it comes.
Therefore, in terms of the design drawings, Wang Hou added a two-story building about five meters high to four city gates without considering capital.
However, the building gradually slowed down. On the one hand, in order to build such a city, Wang Hou brought more than half of Qingzhou's annual cement production. Jia Xu, who was still building the northern port of Wei Port, stomped his feet and cursed. Now that the city wall has been repaired, there is not much cement left, and these buildings have to be built with bricks and stones.
On the other hand, if the city wall that has been built with a life of one's life has to be considered, you must consider people's livelihood. You can't just leave the city wall outside, but you can always live in felt bags! Moreover, because the supporting facilities have not been built, there is no need to sleep or defecate these days. The strong smell of night fragrance has already floated up at the base of the city wall just now.
It is said that Paris was a feces city before modernization in later generations. The nobles wore high heels to prevent the manure from spraying on the street from the gorgeous clothes sewn with silk. Outside the city wall, citizens' feces and urine accumulated to half the height of the city wall. Paris has not been broken for hundreds of years, and it is because of this feces wall that protects it. The foreign enemy was fainted by the feces wall before they could attack.
Wang Hou didn’t want his Jinzhou City to be like this!
However, all this requires bricks. There are raw materials for making bricks. There are Lushan Songling behind clay, but there is a lack of fuel here. Wang Hou didn't want to cut all the woods in the nearby mountains into baldness. Moreover, relying on wood to burn, the temperature still does not meet the requirements, so he still wants coal!
Especially now that October is approaching. Although it is exaggerated to see the snow in August in Tang poetry, it is also snowing heavily in October. The most lacking thing on the grassland is fuel, so the herdsmen have to pick up cow dung and sheep dung and dry it as fuel. Wang Hou doesn't want to burn that thing, and those are not enough to burn, so he has to get coal.
However, coal was not found near Jinzhou. Instead, it was his first foothold, Lianjiaocheng and later Lushun City, a large open-pit coal mine was discovered, and the famous Xi'an open-pit mine in later generations.
After strolling around his Jinzhou City, Wang Hou happily boarded the boat again and slipped back to Lianjiao City, which he was bored with the new and old.
Lianjiao City in early September is much more prosperous than when Wang Hou first came. He had to fight wars and fight for his father, but money still had to be earned. Even Gongsun family had to admit that Wang Hou's arrival made them love and hate. Before, Liaodong Road was thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, and the roads in the western Liaoning Corridor were soaked by the sea collapses all year round. The mountain road in western Liaoning was controlled by the dangerous Wuhuan and Xianbei people. The commodity trade channel between Liaodong and the Central Plains was too narrow.
But as soon as Lianjiaocheng opened, Liaodong's fur, medicinal materials, wild deer products and other specialties can be directly obtained from Lianjiaocheng to exchange for iron and agricultural tools and cloth from the Central Plains. After the autumn harvest, the two families had to continue working. However, before the autumn harvest, the city was full of merchants sent by major families under the Gongsun family to trade, and the merchants from Qingzhou also made a lot of fun.
On this day, just as everyone was still racing against time to trade mountain goods, outside the small city wall, a twitching sound rang out. In less than a moment, whether it was a local businessman or a Liaodong businessman, they surrounded a large area. Just as they looked at the notice board at the gate of the city, they were like chicken chops and were written by Qingzhou Mu himself, and a notice was posted there with ink.
