Chapter 206 The Light of the Crane

Things like Wubao are primitive bunkers. Of course, it can be said that it is a fortress, but it is much smaller than the fortresses in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. A model of Taowu Fort was unearthed from a Han tomb.

The teacher of my archeology teammate once participated in the excavation.

Wubao was formed during the Wang Mang period. At that time, there was famine in the north, social unrest, and many refugees and bandits. In order to protect themselves, wealthy families built Wubao one after another. In the early Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu ordered the destruction of Wubao, but...

..This, the Eastern Han Dynasty has its own national conditions...

The power of the aristocratic families during the Eastern Han Dynasty was already growing rapidly. This is not just talk.

Even Guangwu couldn't demolish illegal buildings, and the emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty later couldn't demolish them.

The people in the northwest frontier often suffered from the Qiang plague, and the people took the initiative to organize self-defense force. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, most of the Wubao became private compounds of aristocratic families.

This kind of scourge continued until the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and after more than two hundred years of cultivating Gu, the aristocratic family finally came to the absurd situation of the old days of "king and thanking" the Yan in front of the hall; the king and the horse shared the world!

But there is no doubt that the forts built by wealthy families are only for defense, but no matter how well the turtle shell is repaired, it will be broken one day.

Yanzai gave Danzhu some advice. As a powerful military blocking facility, bunkers must be set up. Even if they can't kill many people, they can at least keep the opponent harassed. After the morale drops, Sanmiao is not the end.

or robot...

Of course, there is no guarantee that someone who can jump and add buffs will come out, and then the Sanmiao army will perform a wave of instant immortality on the spot, and they will not be defeated in a deadly battle...

If that's really the case, why don't you give it a try and run away.

"The material for the fortress does not necessarily have to be stone. It can be made of bricks and earth... Just like our tribe's three-in-one earth wall, with a layer of stone wall built outside, the effect is still very good..."

Burning bricks? That’s too slow. There aren’t even big earthen kilns now. It’s hard to burn bricks!

But having said that, if this continues, we will really have to create a few wonders, such as a big kiln, a big iron factory, and increase the production capacity by 8...

This kind of practical wonder still seems to be worth knocking.

Danzhu spoke at this time: "Since it is a checkpoint, how can it be weaker than the city's defense? The big cities in the Central Plains have three floors inside and three floors outside..."

What kind of city wall is seven meters high and 2.5 meters thick, including fortifications, a total of ten meters thick... It can be used from prehistoric times to the age of navigation...

Is his mother building a city?

It's built so thickly, are you trying to defend yourself from cannon fire?

Yu Zai kept complaining in her heart, and at the same time felt that there was something wrong with these Central Plains people.

Oh, I seem to be from the Central Plains too.

"Okay, according to your standards, the level design I gave is indeed vulnerable..."

Danzhu's idea was that it would only be three to five feet thick, three to five feet tall, and wide... Anyway, the road would be blocked, and the city wall would have to be built in three rows. He made changes according to the design of Zan Zai, and kept making changes.

Then, while Ruan Zai was dumbfounded, he put forward the suggestion of "Wengcheng".

"You build three rows. The first row protrudes a little outward, and you build a small city inside. Look, it's like catching a turtle..."

Ruanzai looked at Danzhu and suddenly said: "Ahong, you are really a genius."

Danzhu was stunned for a moment: "What kind of genius... Oh, you mean talent? I have always been a talent, it's just that my old... fellow villagers look down on me."

Yu Zai: "You have managed to reach the position of Tao Tang's envoy, but your fellow villagers still look down on you. Aren't you from Hexi?"

Danzhu: "That's... my fellow villagers are all talented people... In fact, people as good as me are in my hometown... Ahem, of course I'm special. After all, I know a lot. Those guys

People are jealous of me."

"Well, having said that, although we are chatting here, the labor force is insufficient. If those big monkeys are allowed to repair it, their progress may not be much faster than others. After the Jindu is completed, they probably won't have the strength anymore.

."

Although Danzhu said that the mountains would be sent to death, if these big monkeys died of exhaustion, it would obviously be a waste at this juncture.

There is no way, there is a shortage of people to carry big bags now, and it seems that there are no strange beasts that are as strong as these big monkeys and can help like humans.

"Zai, you have great wisdom. Now is the time for you to take action. Don't shirk the blame! Even if it's for my job, you have to think about it. This is a big deal."

Danzhu said to Yu Zai: "If this matter is not handled well, I will lose my job when I go back to the Central Plains... If I am arrested then, I will not be able to make wooden utensils for you."

It seemed like he was "threatening" Yuzai, but in fact Danzhu didn't want to go back. He would be imprisoned again if he went back. If he messed up, Di didn't know how to punish him.

Ruanzai had a grimace on his face, but Ah Hong said it lightly, but he didn't do anything about the labor force himself.

You make the design so big and so excellent, and then you ask me for people?

I'm just an ordinary wizard citizen in the southern wilds, and you're making it too difficult for me!

"very good....."

Ruan Zai held Ah Hong's mentality that he might be sick, and drew something casually on the ground. Unexpectedly, when Danzhu saw this thing, he was instantly captivated and suddenly said: "What is this!"

Yu Zai: "A friend of mine told me about something, but it doesn't exist yet... This thing is called a treadwheel crane!"

The weapons construction bureau in Mangmanzhiye.

The bed crossbow was quickly imitated by carpenters into three test machines, but the range of each one was not ideal, and there was even an own problem of the shooting range becoming shorter. This made everyone who was originally full of confidence

The carpenter had no choice but to review the knowledge taught by Danzhu again.

Did you never expect that carpentry is such a difficult job?

But similarly, there is one machine here that has a better effect and shoots thirty-five steps.

"I am Chaoyoshi's Chaogan..."

Chao'an made a request to the Xunshan family. He asked Xunshan to send someone to Yangdi Mountain to buy some "Cun trees".

The Chinese mulberry tree has special wood and can be used to make bows and bows. The "mulberry bow" during the reign of King Xuan of Zhou Dynasty was made from this tree.

"The bow arms are made from the cypress tree. Yangdi Mountain has the legacy of the ancient emperor, and the entire mountain is in a state of deification. The cypress tree there is the best in the mountains and seas."

The crossbow body is made of hard mulberry wood, the crossbow tip is made of sandalwood, the trigger is made of copper, and the string is made of hemp rope (see Shen Kuo's Mengxi Bi Tan in the Song Dynasty)...

Colossus is the best choice for bow arms among all wood species.

"The catalpa tree of Yangdi Mountain, the catalpa tree of Zhenling Mountain, the sacred copper of Diyou clan..."

Chao'an grabbed the crossbow string and pressed it.

"Hemp rope... I don't know about this. I have to ask the Akakata clan. Our tribe is still using old rattan."

The first ones are all good materials, but the last ones can't be ruined.
