The young mason rubbed his hands and stood in front of the wall. After running for a few steps, he suddenly hit his shoulder on the cement brick wall. Seeing this, the onlookers stepped back and thought to themselves that this was so broken.
It's time for the wall to come down.
But to everyone's surprise, the young mason's arm hurt from the collision, but the cement brick wall remained as motionless as a pillar in the sky, without even shaking.
Everyone was silent now.
After a long time, a mason said, "Son of me, the cement made by the team leader is as good as Sanhe soil!"
Everyone stood there as if they were just waking up from a dream. They looked at each other for a few times and heard someone say again, "But the boy who delivered the cement just now said that this cement is much cheaper than Sanhetu!"
Hearing this, all the masons felt ashamed. I have been using Sanhe clay for my whole life, but I didn’t know that there is such a cheap and easy-to-use adhesive in the world. I dare to believe that my whole life as a mason has been in vain.
Would it be nice to ask the management team leader to sacrifice this cement?
Everyone was still unconvinced, so someone shouted: "If one person can't knock it down, try two people hitting it together!"
After hearing this, everyone said yes, and then two people came out and hit the wall together.
The first time the two of them collided, the brick wall did not waver. The second time they collided again, the brick wall still did not waver. When they collided for the third time, making themselves dizzy, the cement brick wall still stood.
There, it remained motionless.
The onlookers fell into silence.
What is this? I'm afraid this is stronger than Sanhe soil! Such cheap black cement, mixed with sand, is actually stronger and more reliable than the expensive Sanhe soil. Where did such a thing come from?
It’s really unheard of. With this thing, the decades of experience in applying Sanhe soil by yourself are all in vain!
Even the mature and prudent Tao Youmao looked embarrassed at this time.
It took a long time before someone said something.
"Master Guan Du is worthy of being from the Li family in the east of the city. He made soap in the past, and now he has made such a magical cement!"
After everyone was silent for a long time, Tao Youmao walked out. He walked into the house and took out a kitchen knife. He walked to the brick wall and used the kitchen knife to chop at the air-dried cement in the cracks of the bricks.
He didn't believe it. Could it be that even a kitchen knife couldn't cut through the cement?
But the next scene left him speechless: he only heard a "bang" sound, and the kitchen knife that hit the cement was violently shaken open, and a spark was knocked out on the cement. And with one strike,
The air-dried cement only made a small hole in the cracks between the bricks.
This cement is so strong, it’s like a stone! You know, even the triple soil with brown sugar added cannot withstand the chop of a sword!
When everyone saw this scene, they were all convinced. For these masons who used Sanhe soil to build walls every day, this cement seemed to let them see the magical means.
Tao Youmao threw the knife on the ground and sighed: "You bastard, I have been making three-combination soil all my life, and it is all white. This is the first time I have seen this thing! This stuff is ten times better than three-component soil!"
In mid-September, all the soldiers' barracks were repaired and the beds and bedding were ready. On September 15th, two thousand soldiers from the Frontier Selection Regiment reported to Fanjiazhuang. Li Zhi divided the two thousand soldiers into four battalions.
Each battalion has 500 men; each battalion has four companies, each company has 125 men; each company has four platoons, each platoon has 31 men.
The most important thing in the army is military merit, ability and qualifications. Now that they have never fought in a battle and cannot show their military exploits and abilities, they can only focus on qualifications first. Now that two thousand new people have been recruited, more than 70 of Li Zhi's original servants have become officers.
, assigned to each platoon as platoon leader.
After these soldiers settled down in Fanjiazhuang, the first thing the platoon leader asked them to do was to take a bath with soap in the bathhouse to wash off the lice and dirt on their bodies. The second thing was to go to the canteen for a meaty meal.
Eat meat and vegetables and enjoy the excellent treatment given to soldiers in the front camp. The third thing is to go to bed early and have a good sleep to prepare for the gathering the next morning.
At noon the next morning, the genius dawned, and the assembly horn for the vanguard selection camp had already sounded. The soldiers got up from their beds, and under the leadership of the platoon leader, gathered in the small square outside the south gate of Fanjiazhuang.
Outside the south gate of Fanjiazhuang, many civilians from military households were already standing to watch the excitement. Next to the small earthen platform in front of the soldiers, Li Zhi was riding on a horse wearing a hundred official robes, waiting for the assembled soldiers.
After all the soldiers were assembled, Li Zhi jumped off his horse and stepped onto the small earthen platform.
Li Zhi stood on the small earthen platform and looked around, only to see a mass of black heads. Thinking that these people were his soldiers from now on and would charge into battle according to his orders, Li Zhi couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart.
It may be a blessing to have traveled to this era myself. As an industrial designer in later generations, how had I ever mastered such power?
Li Zhi stood on the podium and shouted loudly: "Athletes, today is your first day in Fanjiazhuang. From today on, you will be my servants and soldiers of my Li Zhi!"
"You are all heroes. You have passed the strict physical examination and interview, and now you can get three taels of silver per month just standing here. An army composed of heroes like you must be a strong army! Since it is a strong army
, you must understand the meaning of becoming an army!"
After finally squeezing into the ranks of Li Zhi's servants, Li Zhi's two thousand new servants were very obedient to the orders. They stood below and listened to Li Zhi's words with open ears. No one made any noise.
Li Zhi said loudly: "We are a new army, we are a new army different from other Ming armies! We formed an army to defend our homeland! We fought to defend our homeland! Now, Fanjiazhuang is the place to choose
The home of the Fengtuan and the various factories and workshops of the Li family are the fruits of our home. If anyone covets them, you must repel the enemy!"
"Without our home, without the Li family's factories and workshops, our new army will become a tree without soil, and I will give out no monthly salary!"
"In the future, if the bandits are brutal and destroy our home, we will fight the bandits! If the Jianzhou Tatars enter the country and covet China's land and occupy our homes, we will fight the Tatars!"
"Every drop of blood we shed in the future will be shed for our homeland."
Li Zhi waved his fist and asked loudly: "Do you understand?"
Two thousand soldiers below responded loudly:
"Understood!"
"We got it!"
Li Zhi waved his hand and said loudly: "The first thing the Selected Front Battalion did was to build a new city wall to protect Fanjiazhuang. Each platoon leader led the team to the designated location and started building the wall!"
