One month later, the year has reached the depths of winter, and another year has passed.
Since the establishment of the team training organized by the Xu family, Zhang Jingxian and other civil and military officials still don't know what the team training has become.
After all, he was worried about leaving hundreds of people completely to Xu He, fearing that he would cause some trouble when the court was paying close attention to Nan Zhi.
So today I took Xu Dai, Chen Hua and Wang Lie to visit Hujia Branch, which is thirty miles east of the city.
The Hu family's branch is Xu Song's village. Because the water was flowing freely in the past, there were only a few villagers.
Because the reed swamps were filled in this time, but the villagers had not yet been filled in, a large area of land was left vacant.
Xu He asked people to build a wooden house and surround it with a fence. After the middle was leveled, it was used as a place for team training.
When the villagers in the regiment training heard that they were required to live in the camp and were not allowed to go home, they immediately started a riot.
Xu He was not very satisfied with these farmers at first, and finally laid off more than fifty people. Currently, there are only three hundred people stationed in the camp for daily training.
"That's it!" Xu Dai, the nominal battalion officer, pointed to a large wooden house not far ahead and smiled.
Zhang Jingxian put his hands on his eyes and looked into the distance. He saw rows of wooden houses in an orderly manner, and all the surrounding trees had been cut down.
When several people came closer to take a look, Wang Lie was surprised and speechless on the spot.
It turned out that the camp gate was in sight. Although the courtyard wall was made of wooden fence, it had many mechanisms. Even a ditch was dug in front of the wooden fence to shield the outside.
Good guy, this scene doesn't even exist in his Qianhu Station.
"Sir, look at the gate upstairs of the village!" Wang Lie pointed to the distance and said to Zhang Jingxian.
Zhang Jingxian saw many objects worshiped on the village gate, but he couldn't recognize any of them.
Wang Lie was a military commander after all, so he introduced the three people next to him: "Sir, have you looked at the things hanging on the gatehouse?"
"That log-shaped thing is called a Yasha Lei. It has spikes on it. If someone attacks the city, it will die if it falls!"
"The wooden plank placed right above the city gate. If my guess is correct, there are spikes under the wooden plank. This is called a wolf fang slap, which is specially designed to prevent people from burning the door!"
"There are curtains hanging above the surrounding wooden fences. Even if the enemy draws their bows and shoots arrows into the camp, they can only throw them. Otherwise, they will be blocked by the wooden fence walls and curtains, but the projectiles have no power. When I was in Shanxi, I’ve seen Bian Jun use this thing before!”
In fact, by this time, Wang Lie no longer needed to introduce him. He was still about a hundred steps away from the wooden fence wall, and there were already Juma around. The back of the Juma was covered with wooden water chestnuts, and in the middle of the wooden water chestnuts, there were iron of square objects with spikes.
Even Wang Lie has never seen this thing before.
"That one is called a holding hoof, and it's made by calling the craftsman loudly. Once the horse's hoof sinks in, it will be immediately stuck and unable to move!"
Sweat suddenly broke out on the foreheads of Zhang Jingxian and Chen Hua.
What does Xu He want to do?
We asked you to organize group training, but you did it more exaggeratedly than the regular army.
Wang Lie's face was full of disbelief.
"I have served in the Shanxi frontier army, and I have seen a lot of Wubao where regiment training is held, but I have never seen such an amazing layout. With this layout, it would not be enough for thousands of people to see. If the people inside If people cooperate with each other tacitly, even if a thousand more people come, they still won’t be able to attack!”
Wang Lie can be regarded as the most capable military attache in Nanzhili, and even he said so.
Zhang Jingxian and Chen Hua became even more worried.
Xu Dai was proud to introduce the three of them at first, but when he turned around and saw their faces, he immediately knew that something was not right. By the way, this Liangsheng was playing Dafa. After these people stopped looking, he abolished the group training. Well, then if he invested so much money, wouldn’t he just throw it into the water and not even a splash could be seen?
In this way, several people came to the village on horseback with their own thoughts.
When Xu Dai saw Xu He standing under the gate tower, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that if Xu He told everyone a story about Xiliu Camp, they would not be scared to death.
"Master Zhang, Master Chen, Master Wang!" Xu He, Qin Lie, Zhou Bi and others bowed and saluted.
Zhang Jingxian looked at the top of the gatehouse. What Wang Lie said was true. There was a big wooden board hanging above everyone's heads. The bottom of the board was densely covered with spikes. If this thing was photographed, no one would be able to go back alive. .
Xu He saw Zhang Jingxian looking at the top of his head, so he smiled and said: "The military book my uncle Mr. Beiming gave me had pictures of various instruments. I just took this opportunity to test it out! There are not many, and this door is like this Order something!”
Just this little thing, okay, how many more are you going to do?
The key is, after doing so much, what are you, Xu He, planning to do?
Zhang Jingxian said in a low voice: "Lingsheng, are these things too much?"
Unexpectedly, Xu He said in surprise: "Passed? I have been testing these things. If the effect is good, I am going to make more!"
Still have to build.
Zhang Jingxian and Chen Hua's expressions suddenly darkened.
"When the time comes, they will all be placed on the Hailing City Wall. If something like last year happens again, these things will be enough to defend the city!"
Hearing this, several people's faces suddenly relaxed.
It turns out that this kid built these gadgets for use in Hailing City.
Misunderstood, misunderstood.
"Haha, it turned out to be used in Hailing. It shocked me!" Chen Hua wiped his sweat and felt much relieved.
Xu He said in surprise: "Otherwise? Could it be used here? We are a group training and we don't have a fort. What's the use of this thing?"
Zhang Jingxian smiled and said: "Yes, yes, you still have to avoid suspicion with these things!"
Qin Lie and Zhou Bi, who were standing behind Xu He, couldn't help but feel relieved when they heard this.
No wonder, as soon as he heard that Zhang Jingxian and the others were coming two days ago, the young master had people put out all the things he had researched and built during this period.
They originally thought that it was used in this wooden village, but now they found out that it was originally built for Hailing.
In fact, what they didn't know was that Xu He displayed these gadgets deliberately for Zhang Jingxian and others to see.
If it is given to Hailing, it must be given.
But how much is given away and how much is left is up to Xu He.
At this time, Xu He ducked away and said with a smile: "My lords, please come into the stronghold."
Zhang Jingxian and others nodded, handed over the horse reins to the servants and soldiers, and then entered the camp accompanied by Xu He.
As soon as he entered the village gate, the knowledgeable Wang Lie saw the way.
"Master Xu, this camp is very elaborate..."
When they first entered the village, Zhang Jingxian and others also noticed the difference here, but they couldn't explain it clearly.
It was Wang Lie who explained: "Master Zhang, look outside the wall are Juma and Mu Lingjiao, and then there is the moat and the city wall!"
"The wooden village is square in shape. When you enter the village, the first layer is wooden caltrops, then there are wooden horses, and then there are flags of various colors!"
"Beyond the flag, there are barracks inside. The barracks compliment the big tent. The four corners of the battle are guarded by soldiers in the southeast, southwest, northeast and northwest."
"There are also Golden Drum Dental School and Dental Soldiers inside!"
"This kind of camp is a square camp. Even if a thief enters the city, he probably won't be able to get past the caltrop and will be shot between the camp and the city wall!"
After Wang Lie finished speaking, Zhang Jingxian and others suddenly realized.
Xu Dai, who was walking at the end, even touched the sweat on his forehead.
"I haven't been here for more than half a month, how come the camp is already set up!"
