Chapter 547

Hearing Lu Fengmei's idea of ​​burning bricks, Fang immediately agreed.

If the bricks can be fired successfully, it will be much more convenient to build any buildings in the future.

Since Lu Fengmei said that he could start at any time, the equation was unambiguous, and he took Lu Fengmei back to the base directly.

First, everyone was called together to announce the idea of ​​building a kiln and firing bricks.

Once this idea was announced, it immediately caused quite a stir.

First of all, Blake and his people are the most confused. These barbarians don't know what a brick is, let alone what a brick kiln is.Speaking of building materials, they only know wood, and they have always used wood to build houses, and they have never even used stones.

Then there are other people. Everyone knows what bricks mean. If bricks can be fired on the island, it is extremely important for the whole group.

Lu Fengmei said: "Brick firing requires soil, firewood, and a kiln. The three are indispensable. There is no shortage of soil and firewood on this island. What we need now is a brick kiln."

Rebecca frowned and said, "I know about bricks, but I don't know about kilns..."

"It's normal. It's not bad for people like you to know Brick."

In Lu Fengmei's words, there was some sarcasm towards Rebecca, just like those silly sons of landlords in the joke who only know that rice grows out of sacks.

Rebecca was very embarrassed, she finally interjected and was mercilessly beaten back, which was very embarrassing for a while.

"How to build a brick kiln?"

"It should be similar to a pottery kiln. We don't have experience, so we can try it bit by bit. Let's build a small one first."

Fang Fang nodded and said: "There is no other way now. It is true that none of us have experience, so we can only try from scratch. Let's build it first, and then try again after building it."

Lu Fengmei said: "I can't do the building of the kiln alone, and I need a few people to help."

"How many?"

"At least three."

Fang Fang glanced at Blake, and said: "You choose, choose three careful workers, and follow Lao Lu to repair the kiln."

Blake immediately picked three out of several clansmen, gave them a stern explanation, and asked them to follow Lu Fengmei to the outside of the camp.

It was also Lu Fengmei's first time to repair brick kilns.

Before he came to this sea area, he never thought that a chemistry teacher could do so many things.

Anyway, his eyes are black now, and he has experience in theory, but the actual experience is zero, so he can only bite the bullet.

The first is the site selection. The place Lu Fengmei chose is next to the trench.

The choice here is quite random, mainly for the convenience of transporting materials, because it is only a tentative decision, and it may not be possible to successfully burn bricks.

Furthermore, if the bricks can be burned smoothly, then a special address will be selected in a serious manner.

I have no experience in firing bricks, but I do have experience in making kilns.

It turned out that I had seen Li Qingman burn pottery and A Yuexiu blast furnace on the island in the north. Based on the accumulated experience and combined with her own knowledge, Lu Fengmei quickly figured out what kind of brick kiln she wanted to build, and Commanded the three natives to act immediately.

First, gravels were dug out from the excavated soil, and these stones were used as materials for building brick kilns.

Then start to mix the mud, mix the clay with water, and mix the mud that can be used to stick the stones, and paste the stones with the mud while building the stones.

In this way, while building and wiping, everything is going on in an orderly manner.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Fengmei was still leading people to build the brick kiln, and Blake also brought the rested prisoners back to the trench.

The current state of the trenches is far from that required by the equation. According to the requirements of the equation, it is best to dig out the trenches before the next enemy attack, so as to effectively resist the enemy's attack.

In order to achieve this, Blake did not dare to relax, but let the prisoners rest for a short time, and immediately pulled them into the trench to start working.

In the trench was the sound of those prisoners sweating profusely, and from time to time they could hear the sound of rattan whips waving in the air and making "cracking" sounds. Those prisoners did not dare to be lazy, but could only work desperately, otherwise what awaited them was ruthless whipping .

In contrast, the aborigines who built brick kilns next to the trench were much more relaxed. At least they didn't have to worry about being whipped at any time, and they could rest when they were tired.

They are also natives, but one side is a soldier and the other is a captive, so the treatment is naturally different.

The natives of the Egret tribe who were digging in the trench looked at the natives of the Black-tooth tribe enviously, hoping that one day they would be like them and no longer be driven as slaves.

"Hurry up, who told you to rest!"

With a fierce expression on his face, Blake yelled at the prisoners, and the rattan whip in his hand hit one of the prisoners' back.

After being severely whipped, the man let out a muffled cry in pain, and a blood mark was drawn on his back immediately.

At this time, Equation came over and came to Blake's side.

Seeing the arrival of the equation, Blake immediately stood upright, showing great respect for the equation.

"Master, it's fine to have me here, you'd better go to the camp to rest."

"It's okay, I'm here to take a look."

Fang Fang walked along the trench for a while. He came here mainly to see the progress of the trench, and then to see how the brick kiln was being built.

As far as we can see so far, the brick kiln has just been built. According to Lu Fengmei's prediction, it will take almost a day and a night to build it.

As for the trench, a layer of soil has been dug at present, and it will take at least ten days and a half months to reach the level of blocking the enemy.

I don't know when the egrets will call next time. I just hope they don't come too fast. It's best to wait until the trench is dug before they come. At that time, they will really come and go.

After checking the progress of the brick kilns and trenches, Equation called Blake aside, and had something to say to him alone.

Blake looked nervous, and asked, "Master, what are your orders?"

Fang Fang said: "I want to send you to the opposite island, the same as the previous time."

"Shall we go now?" Blake expressed his worry, "The egrets were repelled by us, what if they come back immediately?"

"Don't worry, I believe they don't have the ability to mobilize for war. They suffered a big defeat just now, and it is impossible to turn around and counterattack the next day."

At this point, Equation is extremely confident. War is not a game, and it is not something that can be fought by creating a few soldiers in the barracks and making random A's.

With such low productivity of the primitive tribe on the opposite side, this defeat was enough for them to digest for a while.
