A Husband Who Traveled Through the Famine and Developed a Chronicle

The current workshops are brick workshops and tile workshops. The tile workshops can be taken care of, the weather is hot and there is a lot of hay, and they can be bundled into thatch to cover the roof, but the brick workshops need to be built as soon as possible.

Liu Yunzhai is easy to defend but difficult to attack, that is for ordinary people.

For the officers and soldiers who are proficient in siege methods, such a terrain can break through the defense by throwing people at it. The mountain is full of ordinary villagers at the moment, and there is a shortage of water and food at the bottom of the mountain, so there is no guarantee that no one will rush to the mountain.

Li Xiuyuan called Bai Xia and Wu Ziying, and the three returned to his room, sat down at the table, he went to the counter and took out a book with pictures.

"you see"

Bai Xia and Wu Ziying read according to the instructions, and saw that the topographic map of the entire Liuyun Village was painted on the book, and the surrounding scenery was displayed in the form of paintings, which were lifelike, and the houses of each villager inside were drawn as if they were real objects.

Li Xiuyuan's painting skills are much better than Bai Xia's.

Bai Xia touched her nose uncomfortably, thinking of the map she drew back then, she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

Flipping the pages of the book, the topographical map extended bit by bit, and came to the edge of Liu Yunzhai. Here, Li Xiuyuan used charcoal to outline a circle of walls.

Wu Ziying has read a lot of books, and she can see the problem with just one glance.

"Here, and here, need to change"

"And here, if built like this, the foundation will be unstable and easy to collapse"

"Here, you can add a whistle"

Wu Ziying pointed out all the problems in the drawing, and Bai Xia stretched his head over to see Li Xiuyuan nodding and modifying with a charcoal pencil.

Although she couldn't understand it at all, it didn't stop her from feeling that the revised picture seemed a little better than the previous one.

Bai Xia recalled the military bases he had seen in his mind, and his heart was about to be transformed.

When she thought of it, she started to do it. She took out a book, and started drawing by herself regardless of Wu Ziying and Li Xiuyuan. Her drawing skills were not very good, and she could only draw a rough outline at most, and then In different areas, write simplified characters.

She recalled in her mind while drawing in her hand.

Fortunately, the drawing skills are not good, but there is still no problem in drawing horizontal and vertical lines.

"What are you?"

At some point, Wu Ziying's eyes fell on the plan that Bai Xia was drawing, and her slender, white and tender fingers were plump and round, and they lightly landed on the paper, forming a sharp contrast with the slightly yellowed paper.

"Sanya, what word did you write?"

"Living Area"

She moved her fingers again and asked, "What about this?"

"Trade Zone"

"What about this?"

"planting area"

Wu Ziying: ...

Listening to the names of each area, you can probably understand what it means, but it's just this word, no matter how you look at it, it's missing arms and legs. I'm afraid only Bai Xia can recognize it.

Her gaze moved to Li Xiuyuan's paper, the handwriting was neat and strong, it didn't look like it was written by a five-year-old doll.

Compared with Bai Xia's ghostly talisman, it's a heaven and an underground.

"Have you ever read?" A trace of pity suddenly rose in Wu Ziying's heart, and she reached out to rub Bai Xia's head. Bai Xia froze immediately, and moved her head away with a wooden face. This movement like stroking a dog is unnecessary.

Under Wu Ziying's loving eyes, she shook her head.

Read it, but not of this world.

"Then I'll teach you how to read and write." Wu Ziying is very knowledgeable, and her family didn't stop her from studying just because she was a girl. In order to train her to read and write, her father even hired a female wife for her. , all read with her, able to write and count.

"Do you have the time?"

It's not that Bai Xia doesn't want to learn, she had the idea of ​​learning to read characters a long time ago, and she has been running away from famine since then, but she didn't have time.

Now that she has settled down, she naturally has to study hard, after all, she doesn't really want to experience such a thing like Master Tiandao opening the back door, but opening the back door to an illiterate head.

It's just that Wu Ziying was entrusted by Li Xiuyuan to focus on the brick and tile workshops. The current bricks are mostly earthen bricks. If they are built according to the standard of the city wall, they must at least use blue bricks. The blue bricks are durable, but they are not good. burn.

Although Wu Ziying has prescriptions, but in practice, there will still be many problems, and there is no way to solve them all in one cluster.

"It's okay, after you wake up in the morning and do your morning exercises, you can study with me for half an hour." Wu Ziying thoughtfully elbowed, but the time could still be moved.

Bai Xia nodded.

"But I want to make tofu first, and there are other foods"

"There are no wild animals in the mountains, and everyone has no meat to eat. After the soy products are made, they can supplement protein"

In addition, it can also enrich your recipes.

"What is protein?"

"Ah...it's something that can replenish the body"

"Let me tell you about my idea. You and Brother Yuan can see if my plan works. If it works, you can calculate it according to my idea and see how much wood and stone you need." Bai Xia said He told Wu Ziying about the picture in his hand.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to divide the entire stockade into divisions. The innermost part is the living area, the outer part is the trading area, and the outer part is the planting area. The outer part of the planting area is the military area. For each level of military area, build a layer of walls with defensive towers on it, and a city wall on each side.

Due to the population, the first circle has a small area, and it can be extended outwards according to this model.

It is basically the style of a main city.

Repairing outside in this way can form a layer-by-layer protective fortress. Once the outer part is breached, everyone can retreat to the innermost part. The planting area is surrounded by the military area, which can effectively protect the crops planted by the villagers and avoid being attacked by others. spoil.

"This kind of protection from all sides can protect the safety of the people to the greatest extent." Wu Ziying's eyes lit up, and she was a little curious about how Bai Xia came up with the melon seeds in his head.

In this way, in addition to defending against foreign enemies, it can also perform better internal management.

If there were more city walls in the outer district, once someone committed a crime, even if he could escape one district, there would still be countless defenses outside to catch him.

"In that case, people from the Liu clan can be arranged in the outer city."

"Do not interfere with the people in the inner city"

"However, this planting area still needs to be carefully planned. To grow food, water is indispensable. How to bring water in, and how to prevent being caught by others"

Wu Ziying pointed and drew various areas on the paper, her eyes revealing her thoughts.

At this time, Bai Xia who was beside him said naturally, "Go to the tunnel."

"Tunnel?" Wu Ziying and Li Xiuyuan looked up at her together, and Bai Xia said as a matter of course, "Yes, there are many cellars in Liuyunzhai. I have observed them before. Although these cellars are very rough, they are compact in structure. Any signs of collapse indicate that the soil here in Liuyunzhai is relatively dense, and tunnels can be dug."

"Forming a maze underground can solve the problem of being trapped in the city"
