Lieutenant of Fengguo, lieutenant of auxiliary state, lieutenant of Zhenguo, general of Fengguo, general of auxiliary state, general of Zhenguo, county king, prince.
From the lowest level to the king level, the status varies greatly.
For example, if he has an annual salary of two thousand dan, no one will dare to deduct his family salary anymore.
Of course, the most important thing for Zhu Yixi is that he can legally open a government and appoint officials.
Although they are just officials of the royal palace, once the cards are set, it is equivalent to establishing a new central government.
For example, a certain magistrate sent someone to the magistrate, but his official position was the official of the palace.
In this way, the officials will have the status of monarch and minister towards Zhu Yixi. Although it is a bit roundabout, it is of great significance.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yixi became more and more enthusiastic about the fortress, and he couldn't wait to return to Xiangyang as soon as possible.
The so-called bastion is actually very simple. It is to build the city wall from the original square into a polygon, such as a pentagon, an octagon, or a hundred corners at the top.
As a result, the city wall was sunk in, and artillery attacked the sunken open space, greatly increasing the defensive strength.
Likewise, the city walls are no longer straight.
Instead, it slopes inward, similar to the principle of the embankment surface of a dam - ∠.
In this way, the power of artillery can be removed and the wall can be preserved to the maximum extent, which is the best weapon for defending artillery.
Taking this opportunity, the Low Countries, the Netherlands, gained independence from Spain.
In the Battle of Nerchinsk that year, thousands of people besieged Yaxa, which was defended by hundreds of people. It took several months to surround and kill everyone without being able to break through.
It was not until the advent of yellow gunpowder in the 19th century that the bastion disappeared from the stage of history.
On this trip north, Zhu Yixi planned to build a fortress for self-defense and to protect the results of victory, so he brought hundreds of craftsmen with him.
When Mr. Zhu said this, the craftsmen immediately understood and nodded: "We have never seen this kind of fortress. It can be repaired, but there is no guarantee that it will be useful."
"Just do as I say!"
Zhu Yixi waved his hand and said: "Each bastion has about a thousand people, and stores as much food, weapons, and ammunition as possible, and the muzzles of the guns must be left for flanking attacks."
For Zhu Yixi, these bastions do not need to be big, but they must be numerous, similar to nails, firmly controlling a radius of thirty miles.
Moreover, beacons must be built to transmit information and communicate with each other.
In this way, although the Xia Road, which is more than 200 miles square, does not form a Great Wall, it forms a solid defense line with points and areas.
If these ten bastions are not pulled out, the logistics will be cut off at any time.
As we all know, the Manchus and Qing Dynasties came from the Northeast and were very intolerant of heat. Even if they could withstand the heat themselves, the war horses under their crotches could not endure it either.
Once a stalemate occurs, the Manchus and Qing Dynasties will retreat.
"The bastion is not yet safe."
Zhu Yixi touched her chin and said, "I still have to make it out of soil and cement."
The so-called soil cement refers to the fact that in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the supply of cement was in short supply and the demand in rural areas was also great, so broken refractory materials such as broken porcelain, broken tiles, jars and basins, and slag ash were mixed and ground together.
Take 75% of these materials, add 25% of quicklime, and mix them to get soil lime.
In rural areas, they are often used to build pig pens, toilets, and cesspools (it seems to be a land...), and the effect is excellent.
Second only to cement.
Of course, the frost resistance is poor.
In terms of material selection, it is even simpler.
The county towns and state towns in Henan are more or less abandoned and turned into ruins, with brick and tile waste almost readily available.
Open kiln and burn bricks.
For a time, Fangcheng was in full swing.
At this time, news came from Wuguan that an old friend asked to see him.
Zhu Yixi was stunned. Do I know anyone in Guanzhong?
When he saw him, he suddenly realized: "Sun Baihu, why did you come out?"
Sun Xuan'er, whose eyes were red and her face was filled with grievances, threw herself into his arms as if she was about to cry.
Zhu Yixi was embarrassed, and the promise he made seemed to have been forgotten by him.
"General Zhu!"
Sun Changzhou was also harmed by Zhu Yixi.
At that time, the army withdrew from Xi'an, and Zhu Yixi thought that he could counterattack at any time, so he left Sun Changzhou as an internal response.
Unexpectedly, when he came to Huguang from Hanzhong, he went further and further away from Guanzhong.
The barren Guanzhong was occupied by thieves and seemed out of reach.
Therefore, Sun Changzhou took the Jinyiwei's resources and stayed in Xi'an for half a year. There was no news for a long time. Now that he heard that he was in Huguang, he gritted his teeth and left Wuguan.
"Xi'an, it's coming soon."
Zhu Yixi said awkwardly but firmly: "However, it's very good that you come to Huguang. I need you just now."
Sun Changzhou sighed and turned pale: "That's the best, I can be useful."
Sun Xuan'er helped her uncle leave, and before leaving, she looked at him like a scumbag.
"Xiao Nizi, do you really want to sleep with me?"
Zhu Yixi smiled bitterly and said: "However, let's not say that we are killing everyone, let's just say that this handsome and extraordinary face is destined to attract bees and butterflies."
Although Sun Changzhou's return left flaws in the counterattack on Xi'an, it was of great significance to the currently rapidly expanding Qin army.
The Qin army has nearly 100,000 troops, which can be described as a mixed bag. It is time for a supervisory department.
However, Sun Changzhou, as a member of the Jinyiwei family, is best suited to do this.
Along with the construction of the city in full swing, the news that Zhu Yixi was named King of Hanyang also spread.
For a time, the morale of the army was greatly boosted, and many people knew that their commander-in-chief Zhu was actually from the clan.
Bai Wang was shocked and had no choice but to make a fortune.
Wu Dayan couldn't help but said: "Oh my God, I'm still a king. Maybe I can still be an emperor."
"Don't talk nonsense, it's just the prince." Bai Wang narrowed his eyes and said.
"The prince of the county is also a descendant of the Zhu family, a nobleman of Tianhuang. I wonder why he was victorious in every battle and even killed Li Guo. It turns out he is a descendant of the Tian family."
Wu Dayan had a look of admiration on his face: "Sure enough, he is different from us mud-legged ones. No wonder you surrendered to him. It turned out that you had already taken good care of him..."
When Bai Wang heard this, he felt inexplicably more comfortable, and all those little grievances disappeared.
He is a county king now, how could he know that he will not be an emperor in the future?
This is a great opportunity, and it is much better than fighting with a general soldier.
"Let me tell you, I have long seen that His Highness is different from ordinary people, so he showed some nobility, so I bowed down."
Bai Wang raised his chin and boasted: "King Chuang is nothing, not as good as our Highness."
Once this mentality changes, so does the idea.
Before that, Bai Wang just wanted to muddle along and wait until later.
But now, with Bentou, he immediately became energetic.
This is commonly known as subjective initiative, and he began to think about himself and the future of Prince Zhu.
"I have to tell His Highness."
Without waiting for Wu Dayan's reaction, Bai Wang hurriedly walked out into the distance.
A fortress is gradually taking shape. Our King of Hanyang County is leaning back with his hands, instructing the bricklayers to lay bricks and build the bastion.
"Your Highness——"
Bai Wang looked at that tall and straight back, why was it so special and bizarre, as if it was emitting golden light?
"Oh? General Bai, what's the matter?"
Zhu Yixi was covered in dust and couldn't help but ask.
This sentence from General Bai immediately flattered Bai Wang.
It was obviously the same sentence yesterday, so why does it sound different?
"Um, Your Highness, in my humble opinion, you built this castle just to defend against intruders and block the mountain pass!"
Bai Wang said cautiously.
"That's right!"
Zhu Yixi nodded: "Maybe, it's not just a thief."
"Then, just building the city is useless."
Bai Wang hurriedly said: "Thieves are accustomed to plundering people and siege them dozens of times. No matter how many castles there are, they cannot withstand such cruelty."
Zhu Yixi frowned, that's the reason. Why didn't I think of it: "You have a way?"
"have!"
Bai Wang became excited. This was to clear up the confusion for His Highness the County Prince. He couldn't wait to say:
"You can strengthen the walls and clear the country, and plunder the already dilapidated Kaifeng Mansion, Ruzhou Mansion and other places. No, we are the King's Division and we should all move to Nanyang Mansion."
"At that time, Fangcheng will be deserted for hundreds of miles, and there will be no replenishment of food and grass. No matter how many soldiers and horses we have, they will not be able to last long. If we encounter the fortress you specially built, we will only end up with bloodshed."
"this……"
Zhu Yixi was stunned, looked at Bai Wang in surprise, slapped him hard on the shoulder, and said happily: "This is indeed a good idea."
"General Bai, I will build Wangming Camp, and you will be the commander."
Bai Wang giggled, this time, it really wasn't in vain.
