vs 1086 Fast and slow
"They're too slow!" Even a small soldier of the Chinese army can laugh at the speed of the Turks to their heart's content!
They sent 20,000 men, and it took ten days to dig a trench around the city that was less than ten kilometers long!
Move forward at turtle speed!
What can you do in 10 days?
The example given to them by the Chinese was: 50,000 people were used to build a 120-kilometer double-track railway from Suez City to Cairo, which was completed in ten days!
This is an unprecedented speed, the Chinese are fighting the sky, no one talks about the price, no one says a word, the construction site is crowded, the general takes the lead, the small soldiers rush to do it, and the migrant workers are collectively tired and faint on the construction site!
The railway is repaired quickly, dismantled even faster, and completed in five days!
The main thing is to dismantle the dismantled rails from the tracks through horse-drawn carriages, walk a section, dismantle a section, and transport them back to Suez City, which is very efficient.
Iron is valuable, strategic supplies, it is better to throw it into the sea than to leave it to the Turks.
The railroad tracks are counted as balls, and the new city of Cairo was completed in three months.
In terms of construction speed, in this world, is there anything more efficient than the Chinese?
In terms of construction costs, in this world, is there anything more competitive than the Chinese construction costs?
In terms of building city walls, in this world, is there anyone better at doing this job than the Chinese?
There is the Great Wall in front of it, Cairo New City is just one of the endless "Chinese speeds" in the history of China's construction, and in the future, there will be more historical records left in the history of China's construction!
In the southeastern country, labor was never taken lightly, and the leader personally did carpentry at home to build boats, and drove his own boat out to sea to fish and farm fields, while the queen planted vegetables and silkworms.
Every year when spring comes, the royal family goes to plant trees, even in Southeast Asia, where the rain and sun are blessed with vast green areas, they cut down trees, but they will replant them and never let any land be left behind.
Either planting crops, or planting trees, this is the truth that children in the southeast country understand--- southeast country specially set up an Arbor Day, on March 10 every year, the public unit must organize personnel, schools to organize students to plant trees, people dig pits and dig soil, put in saplings, soil and water, this is not labor or what?
If the superior is like this, what can the rest of the people say?
Survival, labor is glory!
In the Ottoman Empire, where religion was paramount, devout believers could go to heaven, and hard workers were never the mainstream!
Don't you see that those imams who specialize in chanting scriptures are all upper-class figures? Where to go, even the vizier and the Pasha have to give them face?
Well, Cairo doesn't count, the red-eyed Farhad Pasha is worried that his own life is gone, so he cares about others, so the imam is also sent as a death squad to fill the ravine!
If they weren't hungry and their families were to be fed, they could sit down and chant the sutras all day, otherwise they would be unreligious!
In such an atmosphere, the top and bottom are working BS, the commanders stand by, the soldiers will not come to help, and the migrant workers are working slowly, no matter how hard and tired you are,
All of a sudden, the whole construction site came to a halt, and people stopped doing what they were doing.
It's not a meal, it's prayer time!
People washed their hands, knelt down with a reverent face, and followed the clergy in their religious activities.
Religion is an important part of people's lives there, and it is naturally right, but in terms of labor efficiency, it is like a big machine running.
When we start again, the machine starts, and when we find that tacit feeling, we stop again, and then we go down, and then we fail.
As a result, labor efficiency cannot be improved, people are lazy, and it takes ten days to dig a ditch!
Not to mention the ten days, staying in Damascus, the guest secretary Aboud was responsible for supervising the ordnance, looking for the craftsmen in the city to build trebuchets, ladders, rushing carts, well rails, shields and other materials, the craftsmen worked steadily, not in a hurry, seeing that the delivery date was approaching day by day, but only a small half of the materials needed!
Don't look at him and Farhad Pasha as brothers, the relationship seems to be very close, but when the task is not completed, Farhad Pasha will not let him go!
The reason is clear: Farhad Pasha is dying, and he still cares about other people's lives?
Aboud was so anxious that he was on fire, a small bubble appeared on the side of his mouth, and he still couldn't stop drinking Chinese green tea to reduce the fire.
It's useless to be anxious, "What?" You want to stop me from praying? ”
In the trebuchet workshop, a stout craftsman asked in a loud voice, also looking at him with squinted eyes.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Aboud whispered.
The anger in his heart, was promoted by Farhad Pasha, Aboud is a Liva, that is, Liva, equivalent to a major general, and his identity is there.
The craftsman's name is Firas, and his identity is a "white ding", that is, an ordinary person.
If he doesn't give way to Aboud and dares to be disrespectful, Aboud can arrest him.
But in the workshop, the craftsman yelled at Aboud, and Aboud had to be careful and swallow his anger, because Firas was one of the few masters in Damascus who knew how to make trebuchets!
Gradually entering the age of firearms, everyone uses cannons, the manufacturing process of trebuchets is less and less understood, Firas knows how to make trebuchets, and Aboud can only desperately please him!
Left in the Chinese government, if you dare not listen to the words of the official, you will send him to prison, and naturally someone will teach him to know the truth of life!
But in the city of Damascus, Filas said that he went to pray, why, do you want to stop believers from coming close to God? 、
Don't dare, don't dare!
The hatred in Aboud's heart, with his dignified status as Liwa, he still has to ask for a craftsman.
In fact, Aboud had expected such a situation, and he thought of a way to get the local government to come forward and "invite" the craftsmen to work in the barracks.
That is, the pre-military service, so that the craftsmen are like fish out of water, and they can only be slaughtered.
For ordinary cities, Aboud is invincible, but in Damascus, where there are many powerful people, he is not enough to see this liva.
Craftsmen are the wealth-making machines of the powerful, how can the powerful give up their personal interests for the sake of national affairs?
You think beautifully!
Aboud told the uncles a big reason, and after touching his nose, he learned to be obedient, and the truth of others is more reasonable than his!
He talked about the past in his workshop, but he really couldn't talk to their behind-the-scenes bosses, and he was talking about real money.
His good feelings for Damascus are gone, and he is even more resentful of the powerful!
To put it mildly, it was finally agreed that the price of doubling the deposit would be paid for Filas to hurry up and build a trebuchet, and with the money, the master could not pray......
Aboud supervised the construction of equipment everywhere, and it seemed that the craftsmen had received the news and joined forces to increase the price together.
Originally, a third of the price was paid as a deposit, and a third was given after the service was completed, and the last third was given later.
Now he has to give two-thirds of the price as a deposit, even so, seeing the craftsmen working slowly, Aboud is angry in his heart, and he wants to pull all those craftsmen out and beat them up, he personally whips them, and even wants to hack all their bosses behind the scenes to death!
