The Qin army set up a camp at the foot of Songshan Mountain and searched everywhere for the remnants of the Qingzhou army.

At the same time, another group of Qin troops built some new villages nearby to house the remnants of the Qingzhou army.

In the Songshan area, there was no shortage of villages.

But because the bereaved families of the Qingzhou Army had settled in various villages, there were many dead bodies left in each village.

It was obviously anachronistic to build a village on the same site, and living in a village where many corpses were piled up in the past, the living were susceptible to the plague.

The original villages could only be torn down one by one, and they were replaced by new villages built at the foot of Song Mountain.

Due to the resettlement of the bereaved families of the Qingzhou Army, Liu Wei was delayed at the foot of Songshan for seven or eight days.

It wasn't until the Qin army couldn't find the remnants of the Qingzhou Army from the surrounding area, and all the affairs were settled, that Liu Wei led Zhao Yun, Deng Zhan and others all the way to the top of Song Mountain.

Songshan, located in the east of Luoyang and west of Xuchang, is steep and forested.

The lush forests have always been a place for birds and animals.

The cold winter has passed, and the warm spring is quietly coming.

Although the wind still carries a chill, it is not as biting as a few days ago.

The horse walked halfway up the mountain, and the road up the mountain was much narrower, and the road was a little steeper than the bottom of the mountain.

Riding a horse on the mountain, if the horse is slightly frightened, the person on the horse will be directly carried down the cliff by the frightened horse.

Turning over and jumping off the horse, Liu Wei made a gesture to the people who followed behind him, and took the lead towards the top of the mountain.

After dismounting, a palace guard ran to his side quickly, trying to help him lead the war horse, but he waved his hand to stop him.

The team of thousands of people, when marching at the foot of Song Mountain, is almost small and easy to be ignored against the backdrop of the majestic mountains.

Climbing the hillside, the team walked on the mountain road, and from a distance, it looked like a long red dragon hovering on the mountainside.

On the narrow mountain road, there is only room for two people to walk side by side with a war horse.

Liu Wei and the team led by him did not march side by side, but formed a long line in a single column, so that the space next to the soldiers would be wider when marching, and it could also prevent someone from accidentally falling off the cliff.

After walking along the mountain road for a full hour, Liu Wei raised his head and glanced at the top of the mountain.

Before he climbed the mountain, he didn't realize how tall the mountain was.

Walking on the mountain road, I deeply felt what it means to watch the mountain run a dead horse.

After walking for an hour, looking at the top of the mountain, Liu Wei only felt that the distance between him and the top of the mountain seemed to be as far away as before the mountain.

"Shiyuan!" Turning his head to look behind him, Liu Wei called Pang and asked in a unified voice: "How far is it from here to Fengzentai?" ”

"Walk another hour and you can get there!" Pang Tong, who was following Liu Wei, looked up at the top of the mountain and responded in an affirmative tone.

Leading the horse to climb to the top of the mountain, looking at the top of the mountain that reached into the sky, Liu Wei couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Surrounded by mountains, the mountain in front of you seems to be the highest peak in Song Mountain.

At the top of the mountain, the wood used can be taken locally, but the mountain under their feet is not a mountain rich in stone.

How did the craftsmen transport the heavy stone to the top of the mountain?

As he was walking towards the mountain, Liu Wei heard the sound of people shouting from the mountain forest on the side.

From the shouts, he could tell that those people were exerting their strength, as if they were carrying heavy things.

Turning his head to look behind him, Liu Wei asked Pang Tong, "What kind of sound is this?" ”

"I think it's a craftsman transporting stones to the top of the mountain!" Listening to the shouts coming from the side of the mountain road, Pang Tong said to Liu Wei: "The mountain road I am waiting to walk is for people and horses to travel. Due to the rush of the construction period of Fengzentai, the people could not build a new road, so they cut down some trees in the mountains and forests, and temporarily paved a wooden road to transport stones! ”

"Let's take this king to see!" Fang Cai was still thinking about how to transport the stone materials for the construction of the Fengzen platform to the top of the mountain, which would be a chance to confirm the doubt, Liu Wei ordered behind him.

He was about to walk in the direction where the shouting sound came, but Pang Tong hurriedly stopped him: "Your Highness, the wooden road is only a temporary construction, the foundation is unstable, and the stones are heavy, and it is too close......

Pang said a word, and Liu Wei's brows immediately twisted.

Earlier, he had instructed that the craftsmen did not need to rush too much to build the Songshan Zen Sealing Platform, even if it delayed the time of the Zen Seal, it was necessary to ensure that the people and soldiers involved in the construction were thorough.

Knowing that the people had built a wooden road in order to carry stones, Liu Wei faintly felt in his heart that the so-called wooden road was a little unreliable.

To build a sealed Zen platform, the stone used is less than a thousand catties.

The wood is load-bearing, and there is no problem for more than ten days, but once the time passes, coupled with the strong moisture in the mountains and forests, the logs are damp and rotten, and then used to transport stones, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no stones rolling down.

With these worries in his heart, Liu Wei said to Pang Tong and the others: "In this way, this king should go and take a look." ”

After following Liu Wei for a long time, everyone also knows his temperament.

He said that he must go and have a look, and everyone did not dare to disobey.

Deng Zhan, Wang Liu, Wang Zhen and Pang Tong, with a team of palace guards, followed Liu Wei down the mountain road and walked to the place where the sound of the trumpet was heard.

On the mountain road, only Zhao Yun was left to lead the team, protecting Tang Ji and waiting for Liu Wei and others to return.

Descending the mountain road and stepping on the soft soil, Liu Wei and the others were cautious every time they took a step.

In the mountains and forests, there are not only many wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, and one or two fierce beasts may rush out at any time, but what is more terrible is that the ground under your feet is covered with thick fallen leaves.

In some places, although they look flat at first glance, there is a hollow underneath, forming a natural pit, and if you are not careful, you will fall down.

Breaking off a branch from the small tree beside him, Liu Wei gestured to the people who followed him into the mountain forest, signaling everyone to also break off the branch and explore the way with the branch.

Holding a branch in their hands, several people explored the way with the branches, and cautiously groped forward.

The sound of the horn in front of him was getting closer and closer, and after walking not far, Liu Wei could already see a few shirtless men faintly appearing in the mountains and forests.

In early spring, the weather is still somewhat cold.

Those men were pushing something hard in the woods, and because they were never idle, not only did they not feel cold, but they were busy and sweating profusely.

As he got closer, Liu Wei gradually saw what the men were pushing.

They walked on a simple mountain road paved with logs, and pushed a stone more than a man long to push up the mountain.

From the width and thickness of the stone, Liu Wei can probably judge that this stone, to say the least, is more than 1,000 catties.

The number of men pushing stones up the mountain is not very large, and with their small number, they should not be pushed at all.

But just a few of them, but they pushed a stone straight up.

Seeing this scene, Liu Wei was also full of wonder.

Turning his head to look at Deng Zhan and the others on the side, he praised in a low voice: "I'm a great Qin Minzhuang, isn't it already so powerful?" ”

The scene in front of him also made Deng Zhan and others feel a little puzzled.

If they are asked to push a boulder weighing thousands of pounds on flat ground, they can push it by an inch or two, but on a steep hillside, they can push it upwards hard, and I am afraid that they will not be able to shake even the slightest.

Even if it was as many as those men, Deng Zhan and the others would never think that they could push the stone so smoothly.

With doubts in their hearts, the crowd moved forward a little more.

When they pushed a little closer, it suddenly dawned on them why those men could push the stone so smoothly.

On the huge stones, there are a few thick hemp ropes, and the thrust of the men has a role in preventing the stones from going off the rails, and what really leads it up is the few hemp ropes tied to the stones.

Suddenly several men in armor appeared in the forest, shouting the trumpet, and several men who were pushing the stones hard all stopped, stood on both sides of the wooden path, and looked at them with surprised faces.

These men were all recruited from the surrounding areas, they were not ordinary people living in Luoyang City, and they had never seen Liu Wei with their own eyes.

However, from the armor worn by Liu Wei and others, several men could recognize that these people who appeared in the forest must be the senior generals of the Qin army.

When Liu Wei and the others approached, one of the men hugged his fists and asked them: "Dare to ask a few generals, why are you here?" ”

"I'm walking on our own, and I'm listening to the shouts of Del, so I'm here to take a look!" Liu Wei didn't immediately report his name, but just grinned at the men and asked, "How many people are transporting stones up the mountain here, I don't know how long this wooden road can be used?" ”

Hearing Liu Wei ask about the wooden road for transporting stones, the man put down his fists and said to him: "The timber is newly cut down by us, if you want to say that the wooden road, it is really not as good as the mountain road, the log will be crushed in a few days, and once the log is broken, it will have to be cut again." Seeing that the day of His Highness becoming the emperor is approaching, I am waiting for this in my heart......"

As he spoke, the man shook his head, and once again clasped his fists at Liu Wei and the others and said, "Generals, please leave, the stones are heavy, and it is not safe to stand here!" ”

Nodding at the man, Liu Wei instructed: "When you wait to transport the stones up the mountain, you must pay attention to your own safety, but you can slow down the transportation, and you must not neglect your own safety because you are in a hurry to succeed!" ”

"Thank you, General, for the point!" After thanking Liu, the man greeted the other men standing aside: "There are stones waiting on the mountain, I need to wait quickly!" ”

Liu Wei had just instructed, and his explanation was immediately ignored by the man, which suddenly made him feel speechless for a while.

However, he did not immediately walk away, but moved closer to the wooden path, wanting to see how the men used this improvised mountain path to carry boulders to the top of the mountain.
