Although it is not a matter of a short time to build such an altar according to the standards mentioned by Chu Yi, if it is to be repaired by ordinary soldiers alone, it is really a bit awkward to repair it in a day and a night.
Most likely.
But Chu Yi said that all the soldiers in the army should directly obey Lu Su's orders, which meant that Lu Su could not only dispatch ordinary soldiers, but also generals.
Compared with the construction speed of ordinary soldiers, the construction capacity of these generals is definitely worth thousands of people, so Lu Su just made a little calculation in his mind and immediately assured Chu Yi that he would be able to complete Chu Yi's requirements.
Lu Su has always been calm, so Chu Yi will leave the matter of repairing the altar to Lu Su. Following Chu Yi's order, everyone bid farewell to Chu Yi.
In the camp, Lu Su discussed with everyone and finally decided on the location to build the altar.
The altar was chosen in a spacious place, almost ten miles away from Hangu Pass. After all, Chu Yi didn't specify where the altar should be built, right?
In order to build the altar as quickly as possible before the time limit required by Chu Yi, Lu Su and others naturally hung the altar on a flat land, at least eliminating the need to level the ground.
Huang Zhong nodded towards Lu Su and said, "Let Huang go and get the foundation stone for building the altar."
Huang Zhong was the hidden leader of the generals. Now that Huang Zhong opened his mouth, the other generals naturally followed suit.
Not far from Hangu Pass were mountains and rivers. Huang Zhong and a dozen other generals flew down among the mountains.
Looking around, he saw the sword in Huang Zhong's hand slashing down a hill. Without any sound, the mountain was cut down by Huang Zhong.
When Dian Wei saw this, he laughed loudly, stepped forward and stamped his foot. Suddenly, the top of the mountain that Huang Zhong had cut down was shaken several feet off the ground.
"Hahaha, wake me up!"
The moment the top of the mountain fell, Dian Wei's figure appeared below the top of the mountain, raised his hands, and lifted the top of the mountain with great ease.
Compared to the top of the mountain, Dian Wei's figure looked extremely small at the foot of the mountain, but with his boundless strength, he easily lifted the top of the mountain and strode towards Hangu Pass.
With each blow, Huang Zhong cut off a piece of foundation stone, while the other generals stepped forward like Dian Wei, each holding up a few square rocks and followed Dian Wei.
.
In just a short while, Huang Zhong chipped out hundreds of thousands of stones. The foundation stones were piled together like a small mountain.
A small mountain of foundation stones was piled up in front of everyone. Looking at these huge stones, Lu Su showed a somewhat relaxed look on his face.
Previously, he was quite worried that he would not be able to repair the altar within the time limit as required by Chu Yi, but now Lu Su found that with the help of these generals, he could do it in half a day, not to mention a day and a night.
Repair the altar requested by Chu Yi.
After a rough deduction in his mind, Lu Su immediately asked Huang Zhong and other generals to return the huge rocks to their positions according to his instructions.
Pieces of huge stones were piled together and soon formed the base of the altar, which vaguely looked like an altar.
Not to mention Lu Su, even others nodded secretly when they saw this scene.
In just half a day, an altar was easily repaired by a group of people. If it were done by ordinary soldiers, it would really take a lot of manpower and material resources to successfully repair it.
Huang Zhong and others were cutting rocks and transporting foundation stones. Even if they were more than ten miles away, it was impossible for Hangu Pass not to notice such a big movement.
What's more, Yuan Shao and others have been watching every move of Chu Yi's camp. I dare not say that even a fly will be noticed. At least like Huang Zhong and others who carry the cornerstone without concealment, Yuan Shao and others will not notice it.
If we get there, I'm afraid Hangu Pass will have been lost long ago.
In Hangu Pass, Yuan Shao, several princes and several counselors under his command were standing there, climbing up and looking into the distance.
With the strength of Yuan Shao and others, they were able to see the actions of Lu Su, Huang Zhong and others in the distance as well as the altar that was gradually taking shape.
Looking at the altar that was about to take shape, Yuan Shao and others were naturally quite surprised.
Two or three days have passed, and Chu Yi has not seen him sending his generals to lead the army to attack the city. You must know that Chu Yi had previously uttered arrogance in front of so many people and claimed that he would conquer Hangu Pass within three days.
.
The result was good. Yuan Shao was well prepared and arranged for more than a dozen generals to guard the city wall day and night. However, two or three days passed and not even a single shadow of the siege soldiers was seen.
Now, the powerful generals like Huang Zhong from Chu Yi's camp did not come to attack the city, but instead built an altar for nothing. This seems to be something wrong.
Yuan Shao frowned and said: "Everyone, what on earth is this Chu bandit doing? It's fine if he doesn't send people to attack the city. After all, he himself probably knows that the three-day attack on Hangu Pass is just a sentence.
It’s just arrogant words, but why are his generals repairing the altar when they have nothing to do?”
Next to Yuan Shao, Yan Liang said with a sneer on his lips: "If you ask me, this must be the trick of the traitor Chu Yi to show everyone, and maybe there is some conspiracy hidden there, so everyone should be cautious.
Be on guard against being fooled by the other party."
It should be said that Yan Liang's words almost represent the thoughts of many generals present, but the thoughts of the generals do not represent the thoughts of everyone.
Just like Li Ru, Chen Gong and other wise men would not think like Yan Liang. When they saw Chen Gong, Li Ru and others frowned and stared at the altar as if they were trying to see the flowers.
Yuan Shao said to Chen Gong: "Gongtai, have you seen anything?"
Except for an altar, there was nothing else. Even if Chen Gong had a conspiracy, he still looked confused at this moment. After listening to Yuan Shao's inquiry, he slowly shook his head and said: "Report to the general, I am
I really can’t figure out what the Chu thief’s plan is.”
Yuan Shao himself couldn't figure it out, so he didn't feel disappointed when he heard Chen Gong's reply. His eyes fell on Li Ru and said, "What do you think, Mr. Wen You?"
Li Ru took a deep breath and said: "In my opinion, this altar is definitely not that simple. It cannot be related to what Chu Yi said before about destroying the city in three days."
Stroking his beard, Li Ru said with a wise look in his eyes: "After all, Chu Yi is by no means a person who talks lightly. Since he said that in front of so many people, there will definitely be no movement between the two.
There has been no movement for three days, and now the other party has suddenly repaired such an altar. It would be unreasonable to say that this altar has nothing to do with what Chu Yi said that day."
When Yuan Shao and others heard what Li Ru said, they all nodded. Just as Li Ru said, now they can only associate the altar with Chu Yi's words that day. Otherwise, there is no way to explain why Chu Yi wanted to
Build such an altar.
A ruthless look flashed in Wen Chou's eyes and he said: "Since the other party wants to repair the altar, then we will destroy it and prevent them from successfully repairing the altar."
This is the truth, but as soon as Wen Chou said these words, everyone looked at Wen Chou as if they were looking at a fool.
That was Chu Yi's base camp, where hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed, and powerful generals with extremely high cultivation levels were stationed under the command. Even if all the generals came out together, they might not be able to approach the altar without the other party's defense.
If not, the opponent might take the opportunity to attack him, so what Wen Chou said seemed reasonable, but it was not feasible at all.
Wen Chou was looked at with strange eyes by everyone, and he couldn't help scratching his head, shrinking back, and consciously closing his mouth.
Yuan Shao coughed lightly and said, "You might as well tell us how we should respond to the Chu bandits' actions."
Of course, in terms of generals, Yuan Shao didn't have much hope. Except for Zhang He, who had a few chance and wise generals, the other generals couldn't come up with the slightest idea when faced with this situation. They still had to rely on counselors like Li Ru and Chen Gong to make plans.
yes.
Chen Gong, Li Ru, Shen Pei and others looked at each other, and heard Shen Pei sigh slightly and salute Yuan Shao: "At the moment we are just speculating that the altar is related to what Chu Yi said that day to break the city in three days, but the specifics are
No one can figure out what the relationship is. Now all we can do is to remain unchanged in response to changes. As long as we stick to the city, no matter how many means Chu Yi has, can he still defeat hundreds of thousands of troops out of thin air?
Can't we move it to Hangu Pass?"
When everyone heard the words of the judge, they showed approval on their faces. For example, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and other generals explained and nodded: "Yes, yes, as long as we guard the city, no matter what conspiracy he has, we will eventually fight him."
It takes the field to determine the outcome.”
With such great passes as Hangu Pass in hand, even if he, Chu Yi, had the power to reach the sky, he could only watch the passes collapse.
The worries in Yuan Shao's heart gradually dissipated after everyone's analysis, and he said with a bit of pride on his face: "With the help of all the gentlemen, a mere Chu thief is insignificant. I will wait and see what Chu Yi can do tomorrow."
Let’s talk.”
Tomorrow is the three-day period mentioned by Chu Yi, and Yuan Shao has made up his mind to humiliate Chu Yi by then.
Many people also showed expectant looks, as if they wanted to see how Chu Yi would have the face to see them again in front of the soldiers of the three armies.
However, everyone was still paying attention to the repair process of the altar more than ten miles away, and informed Yuan Shao and others of the progress of the altar from time to time.
But here Lu Su, Huang Zhong and others did not care about the prying eyes from the direction of Hangu Pass. It was obviously impossible for them to hide such a big movement from outsiders, so they never thought of hiding it, not to mention Chu Yi.
There was no mention of concealing the repairs to the altar.
At this time, Huang Zhong and others were doing the final finishing work. An altar had gradually taken shape, leaving only the last bit of trimming.
A tall altar appeared in front of everyone. This altar was so tall that even from the direction of Hangu Pass, one could clearly see the altar that had been erected in half a day.
When the last procedure was completed, Lu Su and others looked at the altar in front of them and nodded. Lu Su and others strode towards the Chinese army tent where Chu Yi was.
In the big tent, Chu Yi sat upright and looked at Lu Su and others.
Lu Su saluted Chu Yi and said: "Your Majesty, we have lived up to your trust. The altar has been repaired and perfected. Please inspect it."
Chu Yi knew that repairing an altar was nothing to everyone, but he did not expect that it would be so fast. Otherwise, he would not have given Lu Su and others a day and a night to do it.
With a somewhat interested expression on his face, Chu Yi slowly stood up and walked out of the tent first. Looking up, he saw a towering altar not far ahead.
At just the first glance, Chu Yi felt a majestic power. After all, the cornerstones for repairing the altar were all cut out by Huang Zhong with his sword. Each cornerstone contained Huang Zhong's sword power, so this
An altar naturally exudes a wisp of power, and people with lower cultivation levels cannot approach the 100-foot radius of the altar.
"good!"
Chu Yi praised him, nodded towards Lu Su and said, "Yes, I can rest assured that Zijing is doing things."
Everyone immediately looked at Chu Yi with expectant eyes. Obviously they were curious about how Chu Yi would attack the city now that the altar was completed.
Chu Yi glanced at everyone and said, "Lu Zijing, go ahead and prepare the animals needed to sacrifice to heaven."
After sending Lu Zijing and others away, Chu Yi turned around to the Chinese army's tent as if nothing had happened amidst the stunned eyes of everyone.
A group of fast horses rushed forward and entered the military camp, attracting the attention of many people.
The leader was wearing a green robe and holding a Qinglong Yanyue Sword. He was Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang.
When everyone saw Guan Yu leading a group of people galloping towards them, they all stopped and looked at Guan Yu who was running towards the Chinese army's tent.
"Hey, isn't this Guan Yunchang? If I remember correctly, it seems that the prince sent Guan Yunchang back to the capital a few days ago. Now it seems that he must have returned from the capital."
Chu Yi glanced at everyone and said, "Lu Zijing, go ahead and prepare the animals needed to sacrifice to heaven."
