Tens of thousands of people worked together to build houses at an extremely fast speed, and their requirements were very simple, just that they could house people and keep them warm.
Whether it looks good or not, whether it is comfortable or not, these are not things that can be considered during marching operations!
On the first day, they had dug countless large holes in the forest. On the second day, they had already chipped the wood, inserted it into the ground and put up beams. At this time, the house was barely equipped with the ability to keep warm.
and the role of residents.
On the third day, they had blocked all the vents with soil, grass and snow, leaving only a small opening for ventilation.
As soldiers entered one after another, the whole room quickly became warm even though there was no life.
The surrounding frozen soil and the snow above have become the best insulation layer!
"This place is really nice. I can find such a warm place to live in such a cold place!"
In fact, this construction method was also seen in a book by General Qiaoqi, and this book was written by a traveler among the northern nomads, recording what he saw and heard in the north.
I didn't expect that it would come in handy today.
"The method of building houses in Jiangjun State is really amazing. In just three days, a place that can accommodate an entire army has been introduced. It is also so gentle and warm that even it is not half inferior to my Daming Stove House."
Woolen cloth!"
"Yes, I once heard old people say that this semi-underground house seemed to have existed during the Huangdi period, but it was later abandoned!"
But he didn't expect it to be so useful, especially in winter when the wind was biting outside, but the inside was quite warm. He even felt that he could take off a coat without feeling too cold.
When I return to my hometown in rich clothes, I must build a house like this at home, otherwise it will be too expensive to buy coal in winter, and I heard that this kind of house is also very cool in summer.
Of course, many southern regions also have such houses, but they are not used to keep out the cold, so it is natural that they would not have such a use.
"Okay, let's get organized first. Lieutenant General, come with me and let's make a plan for the future!"
…
"This is such a crazy weather. Last year we didn't see snow a few times a year, but now we've seen it snow twice!"
Zhu Tianyou stood on the city wall of Liangzhou City, complaining. Of course, he was not complaining about the snow that fell today, but about what happened during this period.
"Whether it snows or not is God's business. If you can, you can reason with God!"
In the past few days, although the Allied Forces of the Five Nations had been allowed to withdraw their troops militarily, in terms of civil affairs, he, the prefect, was extremely tired.
Most of the servants from the aristocratic families have been returned now. He spent countless days and nights working as cattle and horses, and talked hard with the squires to get them back, but now they are of no use.
I was thrown back by someone else's words.
You said that he was aggrieved or not, that he didn't get any benefits, and that he was still holding back his resentment.
Not only from these big families, but also the ordinary people in Liangzhou City, how to appease them, he, the prefect of Liangzhou, is in trouble!
Nothing was chaotic. The first people to be confused were the ordinary people who heard the news. When they heard about the 300,000 troops, they immediately panicked. They even packed up their things overnight and tried to run away, but they were all stopped by him, the prefect.
Stopped.
After some painstaking persuasion and exhaustion of words, these people were persuaded to let them stay here temporarily to observe the fighting situation between the two sides. When the war situation is unfavorable to them, it is not too late to leave!
Of course, there are still many people among them who are full of blood and want to take up weapons and fight those idiots on the city wall!
But who would have thought that these menacing troops of 300,000 would retreat without a fight.
How many days has passed?
What about the promised protracted war?
They were so energetic at the beginning, why did they suddenly disappear?
On the first day of the war, the soldiers of the Five Nations Allied Forces attacked their city walls like crazy. They were not afraid even in the face of bows and arrows, rolling logs, fire barrels and explosives.
At that moment, they seemed to have forgotten life and death, and all they could see was climbing their city wall.
This fierce force scared them. Encouraged by Zhu Tianyou and the others, the soldiers guarding the city defended the city for three days. After three days, these originally ferocious ghosts
The mission is like taking a cigarette too hard, and suddenly becomes paralyzed and powerless.
I don't know why, but the originally fierce offensive suddenly weakened. Even if they only made a few perfunctory defenses, they could easily repel the invading soldiers. It was not like a few days ago, when they had to risk their lives and fight twelve times.
Only when you have more energy can you force your subordinates to do so.
This sudden emergency change made them all confused. They suspected that this was a treacherous plot by the enemy envoys, so they did not relax at all on the fourth day.
So they stayed on the city wall all the time, observing every move of the enemy, while letting the tired and injured soldiers take a good rest below.
Send a small number of soldiers to hold on to the city, while the remaining soldiers rest by the city wall, so that if a sudden change occurs, they can quickly provide support.
However, as time went by, they discovered that the enemy did not seem to be acting, but really did not want to fight. Not long after, they saw them returning to the court.
Ah this...?!?
I can't just give them a try this time. What are you doing? The wind is loud and the rain is small.
You've been traveling for more than half a month just to come here and scare us?
Then, after scaring us, he ran away?
They never dreamed that the enemy would retreat like this.
They waited until the Allied Forces of the Five Nations disappeared in their experiment, and then they reacted, fearing that the enemy would fake a retreat and then launch a night raid to catch them off guard.
Therefore, several groups of cavalry were sent to spy on the enemy's situation, and the results reported back were exactly the same.
That is, they ran away and went far away. The cavalry chased them for a whole day before they saw their backs!
This running speed is simply astonishing and unmatched.
"So, guess what's going on?"
Zhu Tianyou asked the prefect next to him with a smile on his face.
"What else could be going on? Seeing that such a fierce attack could not defeat us, they must have felt that they could not capture Liangzhou in a short time, so they retreated!"
