Start a city building order

Chapter 75 Dian Wei's Hammer

This is the No. 15 day of Li Si's start.

Before dawn, his territory was already busy.

On the top of Yanhui Mountain in the east, a few scouts who had been up for half the night came out of the hiding place, had a quick handover with the other scouts, and then went into a hut in the dense forest, and ate something casually. Just fall into dreamland.

Their scouts are all headed by the most experienced chief escort. There are ten observation points in one observation point, and there are ten observation points in total. They are divided into two scout battalions, covering as far as a hundred miles away, and comprehensively monitoring the Jincheng battlefield in the north.

Maybe they couldn't detect the real changes in the Jincheng battlefield, but once a large army went south, Li Si would be able to know it as soon as possible.

At the same time, in Dongjiazhuang, more than 8000 refugees scrambling to harvest rice and wheat groped in the dark. They had gotten used to lining up in long lines, received their meals, and silently entered the fields with sickles. To be near the end, at most one more day, it will be over.

Even if it is calculated based on one hundred catties per mu, this is tens of millions of catties of grain. In addition, there are a lot of straw, which can be used as fodder for livestock and firewood for cooking.

And this is the farmland in the Dongjiazhuang area. There are still 10,000+ mu of farmland in the three towns of Xishan Town, Wangzhuang Town, and Huangzhuangji, which are also being harvested.

In previous years, half of these grains would be obtained by the Lu family in Lucheng, and the other half would be obtained by Lu's relatives and big households, and finally entered the grain business, earning a lot of money for the Lu city Lu family.

This year, it was all cheaper than Li Si.

At the foot of Futou Mountain, the Kaishan Engineer Battalion has already started a day of excavation.

There used to be two quarries here, and the fourth-level mason Guo Laosan, who was awarded the official position of Kaishan school lieutenant, was originally the head craftsman in this quarry, and now he resumes his old job with great ease.

Every day, 1000 yuan of large stone cubes, 3000 yuan of medium stone cubes, and 1 yuan of small stone cubes can be provided here.

Among them, the large and medium-sized stone cubes will be supplied to Xishan County for the construction of the city wall of the county.

Small stones will be supplied to the northernmost tip of Luming Dongshan. This place has turned into a large construction site in just a few days. Part of the construction engineer battalion managed by Qin Xiaodao seized the time to dig the foundation here. Relying on the mountain to build a stone fortress.

This fortress is not too big, and it can only accommodate [-] soldiers and horses. The focus is on the upper part of this stone fortress. Eighteen stone platforms with different angles, different heights, and different orientations are being built simultaneously. It is said that It was used for placing large trebuchets.

This kind of trebuchet can hit two or three miles with one shot, and it can just work with the fort in Xishan County to block the valley area of ​​five or six miles in the middle.

According to Li Si's plan, at least ten Baoxu crossbows, eight large catapults, twenty medium catapults, and at least 50 small catapults should be placed here.

As for the number of manpower required to operate so many trebuchets, it is not a problem, because this kind of counterweight trebuchet can be counterweighted in advance. At critical moments, a team of five trebuchets can control more than a dozen trebuchets, striving for intensive firepower per unit. Mainly.

In short, the specific tactics can be studied slowly, but the firmware configuration must be in place first

In Xishan County, larger-scale construction is also being carried out simultaneously. Most of the manpower of Qin Xiaodao's city construction engineer battalion is here. The square is not enough, and the original stone houses and stone walls in Xishan Town have been demolished by one-third.

Including the stonework of Huangzhuangji, Dongjiazhuang, Mijiazhuang and other abandoned villages and towns.

There are many mountains and stones in this place, especially for the big families. The houses built at home must use the best stone cubes. This thing can't be burned even if it is burned. Now it is convenient for Li Si, and a large number of high-quality stone cubes have been transported. , Can completely catch up with the construction progress.

It is worth mentioning that the city wall of Xishan County needs to use glutinous rice as the main glue, which is expensive, and thanks to this bumper harvest, otherwise Li Si would go bankrupt just to build a county city wall.

Due to the demolition of a large number of stone houses, it is necessary to speed up the replenishment of wooden houses. Li Si called it a simple resettlement house. This is based on the experience of Zhuluguan. It's easy to live in, first have a place to stay, and when Li Si really becomes Lucheng Lu's tasteless, the closed loop of defense is completed, and then we can consider more basic people's livelihood.

In fact, due to Li Si's land division strategy, these people in Xishan Town who were originally tenants, long-term workers, and even slaves would not complain at all, and everyone was full of confidence in the future.

After all, in addition to obtaining farmland, due to Zhou Yue's domestic demand strategy, the residents of Xishan Town suddenly had hundreds of small workshops, hundreds of raw material suppliers, dozens of finished product processors and retailers, and several Ten travel merchants who run freight transportation.

Astonishingly small and frighteningly small, it's an excellent start.

For example, just yesterday, more than a dozen traveling merchants went to Wangzhuang Town, or Lujia Town, or even went to Lucheng.

They may be the Lu family's spies, or they may be profiteers who speculate, but it doesn't really matter.

Li Si gave Zhouyue 20 gold as the start-up capital for Husi's business.

He almost patted his chest and shouted, people are stupid, there is a lot of money, come quickly.

And this is also one of the reasons why Li Si ordered Qiu Wuwu to create a persona who is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness yesterday.

In business, what is important is integrity. I have a market here, my taxes are clear here, I don’t disturb the people here, and many people with money here are stupid.

Many times, things are as simple as that.

Of course, as a supporting means, it must also be complete.

Therefore, the inspection department, the prison department, the criminal department, and the garrison camp have already been set.

The household department and the tax department are improving their teams.

Make sure no one really takes advantage of you.

"Hoohoo!"

At the moment, in Beicheng, Xishan County, which is the exit of North Street of Yuanxishan Town, this place used to be a large threshing field, the size of two football fields, and it was the private property of the Xishan Lu family. It is harvested every autumn. The crops piled up into mountains.

Now it has become a training ground for the Guards Battalion.

Dian Wei, who was hanging up, was training the guard battalion here.

100 captains of level 4 swordsmen and 500 level 3 swordsmen have three meals a day, including meat and fish, morning exercises in the morning, training in the morning, training in the afternoon, and training in the evening.

The 600 swordsmen were miserable after practicing.

Even Dong Erdai's Baizhan Battalion next door was petrified.

Because they only practice twice a day.

But they didn't know Li Si's real intentions, and only Dian Wei knew.

Training!This is the correct way to open the summoned five-star general.

Because five-star warriors have strong personalities, extraordinary fighting skills, and incomparable fighting will, their influence on ordinary people is like an ordinary person learning from a legendary figure in history.

Think about it, if you follow Lu Bu to fight every day, even if you are a small soldier, after a long time, how can you not realize it, and even have a lot of courage?
Think about it again, if you are an ordinary person, serving tea and water to Confucius every day, over time, you will gain a lot.

It's a pity that Dian Wei is not Zhang Liao, not Gao Shun, and his military training ability is not good, so Li Si didn't let him train the Bai Zhan Battalion, because that would make the Bai Zhan Battalion training abolished.

However, mercenary swordsmen, a mercenary unit, are very suitable for mung beans with Dianwei Wangba.

Because Li Si observed Wang Chu's swordsman battalion, he found that they were always in a swarm on the battlefield, and their personal fighting skills were quite high, but when they cooperated together, they would just swarm...

In the previous stage, because Dian Wei was the backbone, the Swordsman Battalion was invincible, but without Dian Wei, the Swordsman Battalion would be weak when it was strong, and strong when it was weak. The Baizhan Battalion, even against the Lu family's regular army, would be doomed.

To adjust the tactics of the Swordsman Battalion, it would be better to recruit new recruits. For example, the 600 people in Zhao Shan had to be trained strictly according to the tactics of the frontier army system.

Then, it is better to go all the way to the dark, let their personal fighting skills and personal violence level approach Dian Wei, and then cooperate with Dian Wei to become the most violent hammer on the battlefield.
