Lord of the People: I rely on cheating for hegemony

Chapter 1410 New Fortification Movement

In the early morning of July 14, 7, Qu Mao, Liu Qianhui, and Shi Buhui each brought 1 firearms soldiers and 1000 fortification residents, and started to walk from different towns in Shaliuhou Kingdom to the area where the new fortification was planned. go.

The night before, Qu Mao had already sent someone to inform the intelligence personnel stationed in Xirong City to send a message to Su Yan and Mo Yangqiao, asking them to deliver fresh water resources to the Holy Land in advance. Afterwards, Qu Mao and Liu Qianhui stayed up all night, exchanging ideas about Iron Mine City. Architectural plans for the three new towns of Minmetals City, Minmetals City and Metal City.

Qu Mao was in charge of the construction of the metal city. Before the sky was bright, the soldiers and civilians led by Qu Mao had already arrived at the area where the metal city was to be built.

The first thing Qu Mao did was not to arrange the construction shadows of the second-tier city walls, but to arrange the construction shadows of a large number of zero-tier residential buildings. Then he sent soldiers from the Firearms Army to guard the construction, and sent the city residents to implement real construction outside.

With on-duty construction and the cooperation of actual construction, the time to build a zero-level residential house will be compressed to less than one hour. This is a fact that every hero who has built a town in the Yidi territory knows well.

After building the zero-level residential buildings, even if the temperature in the desert rises to an unbearable level for humans, Qu Mao can arrange soldiers and civilians to enter the zero-level residential buildings to take refuge at any time, and only arrange personnel on duty for the construction.

Fortunately, there are game mechanisms in this world. On-duty construction is a game mechanism. Regardless of whether the on-duty personnel have the corresponding skills, as long as the on-duty personnel enter, they can complete the construction progress bar of the building and are not affected by the outside world, unless they are under construction. The building guarding construction has been attacked from the outside.

As for the harsh weather and bad temperature in the desert, there is naturally no way to affect the personnel on duty.

At 14:7 a.m. on July 1, 9, 300 zero-level residential houses have been built in the planned area of ​​Metal City. Survey the terrain around the zero-order dwellings, and arrange the shadows of the city wall construction.

While arranging the shadows of the city wall construction, Qu Mao arranged for Firearms Army soldiers to enter the construction on duty.

The three newly built towns, Metal City, Minmetals City, and Iron Mine City, had been discussed by Qu Mao and Liu Qianhui before departure, and they were all built according to the same specifications as other towns in the Marquis of Shaliu, that is, they were all built as borders. It is a square town with a length of two kilometers, and three gates are built on each side of the city wall.

Although the desert is extremely hot during the day, the firearms soldiers on duty for the construction will not be affected, at most it will be necessary to suspend the construction of reality.

It took an hour for Qu Maogang to lay out the shadows of the construction of the four walls and nine gates, and all the soldiers of the Firearms Army were arranged to guard the construction, and the temperature had risen to an unbearable level.

So Qu Mao hurriedly drove all the soldiers and civilians who had not been assigned to be on duty to rest in the zero-level residential house to rest, and he also entered the zero-level residential house to rest to avoid the scorching heat of the desert.

Because the time is relatively tight, the public toilets have not yet been built. Qu Mao had to ask the soldiers and civilians who are resting. If they need to go to the toilet, they should go out of the zero-level residential buildings and solve the problem nearby. The soldiers and civilians who are still following Qu Mao to build the metal city are all men. , there is nothing embarrassing about it.

At about 14 pm on July 7, 1, a desert storm began to blow in the fortified area of ​​Metal City where Qu Mao was located. Even though he was hiding in a zero-level residential house, Qu Mao still felt miserable.

The storm didn't come to an end until around 6 pm, and the temperature began to drop. Only then did Qu Mao take the soldiers and civilians who hid in the zero-level residential buildings out to prepare for the actual construction.

After walking out of the zero-level residential buildings, Qu Mao was dumbfounded. Not only the achievements of the daytime construction of the city wall were basically buried by the wind and sand, even the zero-level residential buildings that had been built were mostly buried by more than half of the sand.

Qu Mao had no choice but to arrange for some soldiers and civilians to replace those who were on duty during the day, and then arranged for the residents who were on duty during the day to enter the zero-level residential buildings to rest and eat.

The rest of the soldiers and civilians are busy cleaning up the sand that buried the zero-level houses.

According to Qu Mao's requirements, the soldiers and civilians who were on duty during the day to rest until 9 p.m. needed to wear thick clothes to keep out the cold, and light torches to come out to actually build the city walls and gates.

Unfortunately, at around 9 o'clock that night, the soldiers and civilians came out to carry out the actual construction within half an hour, and the sandstorm blew again. Qu Mao had to order all the soldiers and civilians who were not on duty to enter the zero-level residential buildings to avoid the sandstorm.

At about 14:7 am on July 2, 5, the wind and sand finally stopped again. Qu Mao had to call out the generals and civilians to rotate the construction personnel, and at the same time clean up the sand that buried the zero-level houses.

Under the disturbance of desert wind and sand, it took Qu Mao a full week to complete the eight-kilometer-long second-tier city wall and nine city gates with 2000 soldiers and civilians, but it was only limited to the city wall and city gates. , as well as zero-level dwellings temporarily sheltered from the wind and sand, none of the city hall, city lord's mansion, material warehouse, granary, and military barracks have been built.

On the morning of July 14th, 7, the metal city wall that Qu Mao was in charge of building was finally completed. Qu Mao also quickly began to arrange the city lord's mansion, city hall, material warehouse, granary, military camp, medical room and other functions within the city wall. permanent buildings, and arrange military and civilian duty buildings separately.

After the city walls are closed, even if there is a desert storm, there is no need to wait until the wind stops every time to arrange for soldiers and civilians to clean up the zero-level houses half buried in the sand. Qu Mao is relieved.

Although there were many difficulties in the past week, no one was injured or injured among the soldiers and civilians who followed him to build the city.

Around nine o'clock in the morning, Liu Qianhui and Shi Buhui arrived at the Metal City under construction by Qu Mao under the escort of the fourth-rank camel riders.

From Liu Qianhui and Shi Buhui, Qu Mao also learned that Minmetals City, which Liu Qianhui was responsible for building, completed the construction of the city wall on the morning of July 7, but at the cost of the sacrifice of more than 5 soldiers and civilians; The construction of the iron mine city was a little later, but the construction of the city wall was completed on the morning of July 200. The price paid was that nearly a hundred soldiers and civilians were buried in the desert.

Qu Mao was responsible for the construction of the metal city. Although the construction of the city wall was completed the slowest, there were no military or civilian casualties. It was considered a relatively stable construction plan.

After the three met in Metal City, they exchanged the construction progress of the three new towns, and then Liu Qianhui appointed the lord of Metal City. Taking advantage of the cooler weather that evening, Qu Mao, Liu Qianhui and Shi Buhui began to go down to the city. go.

Because information came from southern Sunan: the Fulu Empire has captured the Marquis of Erstan, and it is expected to enter Lieyang City of the Maoqiusi Kingdom around July 7.

Qu Mao needs to rush to Yuexia City as soon as possible, and strive to have a secret meeting with Fuzhi as soon as possible.
