In the camp, looking at the dozen or so thin young and middle-aged people in front of him, Meng Tian nodded lightly and asked the middle-aged man at the front, "Hu Wuliu?"
"Yes!" The middle-aged man quickly bowed and responded.
"Okay, there's no need to be so formal. I heard from the civil servants that before you joined the army, you all worked as peasants to make a living?" Meng Tian waved his hand and asked straightforwardly.
"This!" Hu Wuliu and everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Although they were greeted by the civil servants and had some guesses after meeting, they didn't have time to think about it and went to Meng Tian. At this time, they heard Meng Tian's straightforward words.
After asking, he was a little unsure of what his general was going to do, so he couldn't help but fell silent.
You know, the Chinese people have always emphasized that fallen leaves return to their roots, and the dead are the most important. This matter of digging up people's ancestral graves has always been shameful. Even in these troubled times and moral decay, they don't want to do this.
Say it and make it known to everyone.
After a long silence, Hu Wuliu finally spoke up and said, "General Mingjian, I couldn't survive in the past. I had no choice but to make a living by digging something in the dirt. But since joining the army, our brothers are absolutely
I strictly abide by the military regulations and never take advantage of those things again!"
"Okay, okay, don't talk to me so much. I'm calling you here this time not to ask for guilt. No matter what you did before, if you join a certain army, you are my brother, and you are guilty.
So what!" Meng Tian showed his aura and said calmly, "Don't make random guesses, since it's you, it's fine that the military advisor is looking for you this time, so come with me!"
"No!" Hu Wuliu responded, and everyone quickly followed.
Walking in a hurry, Meng Tian led a group of people to the side of Tushan in a short while.
"Wen He, I've brought everyone for you!" Meng Tian shouted loudly, looking at Jia Xu who had been waiting for a long time.
"Yeah!" Nodding, Jia Xu turned around and looked at the dozen or so soldiers behind Meng Tian, frowning slightly, "There are only so many people?"
"I asked, and there were actually quite a lot of them before, but since joining the army, many brothers have been killed in many battles, and there are only a dozen or so single Miao Miao left!" Meng Tian explained.
"Let's try it first!" Knowing that Meng Tian must have tried his best, Jia Xu had no choice but to worry about the number of people. Anyway, the passage he wanted was not big. He thought that a dozen professionals would be enough, and he looked at the leader
This person should be a professional among professionals. With his command, if there is really a shortage of people, giving him a few strong civilians will not be much different.
After calming down, Jia Xu turned to look at Hu Wuliu, who was the most conspicuous among the crowd, and asked, "Are you the leader? What's your name?"
"Greetings to the military advisor!" Hu Wuliu responded with clasped fists respectfully, "The last general's name is Hu Wuliu."
"Hu Wuliu?" Jia Xu nodded, pointed to Jincheng in the distance and said, "Then come and see if I can build a tunnel from the back of Tushan to the Jincheng. Can I do it?"
"This!" As soon as Jia Xu spoke, everyone instantly understood his purpose of calling him and others over this time. They were relieved. Hu Wuliu quickly stepped forward and observed carefully. He first estimated the distance from Tushan to the city.
distance, then stood at the highest position of Tushan, squinted his eyes and looked at the situation of Jincheng from a distance, pondered for a while, and then said, "Military advisor, it should be fine!"
"Should?" Jia Xu's eyes flashed, staring at Hu Wuliu and asked.
"Military advisor, this place is about eighty-six feet away from Jincheng. The distance is naturally not a problem. However, there is a problem that the general cannot determine whether it can be solved for the moment." Hearing the dissatisfaction in Jia Xu's words, Hu Wuliu felt a surge in his heart.
Trembling, he quickly bowed and said.
"What's the problem?" Jia Xu asked with narrowed eyes.
"Military advisor, the terrain here is actually very suitable for digging tunnels, but the biggest problem is the moat beside Jincheng. Facing the moat, we can only dig the tunnel deeper. However, once we dig too deep, it will easily lead to landslides.
.In addition, the land at the bottom of the moat has been covered with water for a long time and is relatively soft. Once we dig a tunnel underneath it, it will easily cause a landslide." Hu Wuliu looked at Jia Xu's expression carefully.
Just now he opened his mouth to explain.
"Is there a solution?" Although Jia Xu doesn't know much about these majors of Tufuzi, he still knows that it is easy to collapse when digging deeply. What's more, if you dig a tunnel directly under the river, the collapse will be
Just think about the probability.
"This?" Hu Wuliu hesitated for a moment, then looked at Jia Xu's expression, and then said cautiously, "There is a way, but I would like to ask the military advisor first. I don't know how long you are willing to let us dig out this place."
Authentic?"
"How about seven days?" Jia Xu asked calmly without changing his expression.
"Seven days?!" Hu Wuliu was stunned, and then said, "Military advisor, if we only have seven days, we won't be able to use the attention I just thought of!"
"Why!?" Jia Xu asked.
"Military advisor, the general originally thought of using a side dig with a frame, which would be enough to ensure the stability of the tunnel. However, if you want to dig a passage that can accommodate the entry of a large army, it will take at least a month!
No matter how you fail to meet the requirements of the military advisor!" Hu Wuliu explained.
"When did I say I wanted to let the army pass?" Jia Xu's eyes moved slightly and he spoke calmly.
"Huh!?" Hu Wuliu was stunned and quickly knelt down, "The military advisor atones for his sins. It was the general who made a random guess!"
"Okay, get up!" Jia Xu glanced at Hu Wuliu and said, "If I only ask you to dig a tunnel that can accommodate one person, can it be completed in seven days? Can it be guaranteed that there will be no landslides?"
"Yes! Don't worry, military advisor. If it's just a passage for one person to pass through, seven days will be enough, and there won't be any landslides in a short period of time." Hu Wuliu patted his chest and replied. After thinking about it, he looked at Jia Xu's expression.
, said cautiously, "It's just that without the protection of the moat, the section of the tunnel along the moat can only take about ten days at most. Once this time is exceeded, the water seeping down from the moat above will soften the entire upper layer, thus
Leading to a total collapse.”
"That's enough!" Jia Xu responded calmly, "Oh, by the way, the confidentiality must be guaranteed!"
"Don't worry, military advisor. The general has been to Jincheng before. I just observed it on the mountain and found that the situation inside has basically not changed, especially the side facing us. According to the general's memory, there is a well somewhere.
As long as we connect the tunnel exit to the well, no one will discover it!" Hu Wuliu nodded confidently.
"Okay! Then you can lead people to start now. If you need anything, please contact me directly. If it is done well, you can lead people to follow me in the future and record your great achievements again!" Jia Xu patted Hu Wuliu on the shoulder and said
