Beasts Are Boundless

If Ye Qiong wanted to measure the specific altitude of the tribe, Ye Qiong really had no choice. After all, he had never even seen the sea since Ye Qiong came to Xue Xing.

Not to mention the sea level thing.

At present, the altitude is really meaningless, but the altitude difference of the city wall does!

simply put……

It's a trigonometry problem.

That is, the Pythagorean theorem, hooking three shares and four mysterious fives, so as to deduce the specific fall of the ground under the city wall.

If the city wall had not been built, it might have been more troublesome to measure, but with the seven-meter-high city wall as a reference, Ye Qiong could measure the difference between the four corners of the stone city wall.

After taking out a wooden ruler, Ye Qiong changed his clothes, put on a hat and rain scorpion and went out.

In light rain, the line of sight will still be affected to some extent, but Ye Qiong didn't plan to get things done in one day. Now, let's measure some data on the four walls, such as the specific height of the walls.

Taking the wooden ruler to the southeast corner, Rongling was still having a headache how to get out the water that had accumulated into a small lake.

Ye Qiong came to Rongling with a wooden ruler.

Looking at the 'spectacular' scene in front of me, I can't help laughing...

Design error!

Fortunately, it can be remedied, and water supply and drainage still need to be practiced before conclusions can be drawn.

"Uncle Rong, how's it going? Do you have any clues..." Ye Qiong put the wooden ruler in his armpit, then took out a piece of jerky from his pocket and said.

Rong Ling looked at the small lake in front of him, sighed and said, "Oh...it's hard to do it, three days of heavy rain, the terrain here is the lowest, I asked the soldiers to scoop some out with wooden barrels, according to the current situation Speed, I estimate that it will take half a year to complete."

"A drop in the bucket..." Ye Qiong described it in four words.

He stuffed the jerky in his hand into his mouth, then smeared oil on his body and said, "Let's dry it first."

Ye Qiong himself couldn't think of a good solution. The thickness of the bottom of the city wall is more than ten meters. It is impossible to penetrate it. It is possible to dig a hole from the bottom, but the inner test wall has been flooded. There is no diving equipment.

It is not practical to dig from outside the city walls, because the outside is also flooded...

It's just not as high as the inside. The measured water depth inside the city wall is about six meters, and the diameter is about five hundred meters. It is as big as a dozen football fields. If the tribe has a boat, they can drive on it.

Looking at the huge pond that stretched out as far as the eye could see, Ye Qiong could only temporarily pin his hopes on God, and hurried out to the sun to bask in the sun, which was much more reliable than the soldiers using wooden buckets.

In order to prevent the water from flooding the surface of the city wall too deep and causing irreparable damage, Ye Qiong did not stop Rongling and let the soldiers use wooden barrels to fetch water outside. Quan should exercise.

As long as there are not too many people, it will affect the construction of the city defense.

The stagnant water that cannot be drained will have to wait for the moat outside to be dug out, and it is estimated that it can be dredged at one time.

At that time, the city wall on the southeast corner will have to be re-reinforced. After all, the clay is still not as corrosion-resistant as cement.

What's more, it is not corroded now, but soaked.

So after a while, when the water receded, Ye Qiong couldn't imagine what the southeast corner of the city wall would be like. Anyway, the worst plan is to reinforce one layer, it is unlikely to collapse,

It's useless to worry about here now, there is no way to avoid natural and man-made disasters.

Ye Qiong instructed Rongling to ask the soldiers to do other things. They could organize the women, old and young who were idle in the tribe. After the weather cleared, let them come and move their muscles.

Rong Ling nodded in agreement, Ye Qiong walked from the southeast corner of the city wall to the north side city wall, Ye Qiong rolled over and climbed up, calling for two soldiers to come and help him, mainly to help him get the rope out of the way.

First use the rope to compare the height of the city wall, and then measure the rope, which is simpler.

After working hard for more than four hours, he finally measured the height of most of the city walls. Ye Qiong directly used a dagger to carve a prominent position on the wall.

This data will definitely have other uses in the future.

While carving on the wall, Ye Qiong also brought out a thin animal skin, and then wrote a copy on it with an ink pen.

The current paper on Xuexing is this kind of animal skin, which is very luxurious. Some tribes will cook these animal skins directly in the late winter when there is a serious shortage of food, so many things on Xuexing are worthwhile. What has been passed down is wasted...

After measuring the height of the city wall, the next step is to build a tower about twice as high as the city wall at the center of the four walls.

After the construction of the equal-height tower was completed, Ye Qiong could calculate the terrain drop around the city wall through trigonometric functions, and then began to excavate. The purpose was to make the bottom of the moat in the same horizontal position.

If the gap is too large, there is no way to pass the water.

Building the tower requires a lot of wood. There are no forests around the Ye Qiong tribe. There are only a few sparse trees, which are not tall.

Waste of human and material resources.

so……

Ye Qiong could only think of the dense forest in the south, and originally planned to build a timber base there.

Earlier, he was kicked back because of the forest ancient ape and the lime. Now Ye Qiong knew that there were no tribes in the jungle, but the forest ancient ape, and he had the idea of ​​rebuilding a timber base.

After all, I have already dealt with it. The last time I saw the relationship between Qingzhi and those forest ancient apes, it seemed to be very harmonious. Although it was not clear whether it was a partner or a master-servant relationship, Ye Qiong used to get some wood, and Qingzhi and those forest ancients were very harmonious. Ape, it is estimated that you have to give some face.

Although it is recorded in historical records that forest ancient apes are peace-loving and have a strong sense of territory, the forest is their homeland. If trees are cut down, for them, it has nothing to do with caring for the environment, but destroys their homeland.

Therefore, when the forest ancient ape met a human who broke into the forest, it would find a way to drive out as peacefully as possible.

Just like Ye Qiong and those warriors last time...

In the jungle, rainy days are the most difficult, so Ye Qiong did not rush to go there, but prepared to wait for the weather to clear before going over to take a look.

By the way, let's see what happened to Qingzhi's grandfather, and how many forest ancient apes are left.

Ye Qiong really wanted to get those forest apes back to the tribe.

A magical beast that can shoot arrows with two denier arrows has such a high level of intelligence. If it can be used well, it is definitely a force that cannot be underestimated.

After returning to the room, Ye Qiong saw Tang Ying, who was carrying a pot of things on the stone table.

"I'm back, quick, I made you something to eat, guess what..."
