Chapter 308: Someone Wants to Do Something (Ask for Subscription)
1. "Mao Gong, follow me to the outer city for a walk." ”
It was completely useless to stay in the mansion and ponder, Mo Xiaobai still decided to go to the stone wall to take a look.
Speaking of which, Mo Xiaobai has absolute trust in Li Ji and others, and he hadn't paid much attention to the construction of the exterior wall before that.
If it weren't for the sudden strange troop movement in the surrounding territories, Mo Xiaobai estimated that he would not have thought of inspecting the outer city at all.
Starting from the mansion, crossing the hinterland of the valley and then going around the mountainside for more than half an hour, a section of wall sandwiched between the mountain walls, at least three hundred meters long, appeared in front of Mo Xiaobai's eyes.
The wall is not very high, at most it is less than three feet.
It's not that Mo Xiaobai doesn't know the benefits of building a high point, but that Zhinao has architectural limitations, and the town-level stone wall can't exceed 8 meters at most.
The stone walls of Big Dream Town are basically built according to the maximum limit, but although the wisdom brain has a height limit, it hardly limits the width. Therefore, under the negotiation of Guo Yuan, Li Ji and others, the exterior wall of Da Meng does not look like a tall and long building, but more like a thick cube, with almost no difference between width and height.
"My lord, below those simple city towers are dark pavilions, which hide stones, rolling logs, and a large number of arrows and standing firearms."
Seeing that Mo Xiaobai's eyes had been staring at the cube in the middle of the city wall, Li Ji immediately explained: "In addition, the ice well in the middle is always equipped with carbon ink, as well as some first-aid medicines, once the battle is tight, the soldiers have no time to withdraw for treatment, and they can carry out emergency treatment inside." ”
"Oh? Go over and take a look. ”
Mo Xiaobai had been to some big cities in his previous life, and he knew more or less what the advantages of some well-built city walls were, and after hearing Li Ji's description, he immediately became interested.
Following Li Ji to the top of the city, Mo Xiaobai found that the entire 300-meter wall, there would be such a small dark pavilion every 100 meters, and the dark pavilion was also paved with stone slabs, but it was much lighter than the solid stone next to it, and it could be pushed open by a single person.
There are a few small steps after pushing it open, and when you walk in, you can see that it is a small stone house of less than 20 square meters.
The side of the stone wall is equipped with a fixed pulley lifting rope, and one end of it is already tied with a piece of heavy wood that is not much smaller than Mo Xiaobai.
And like that kind of heavy wood, there are at least a hundred piles.
"It's really reassuring to have Maogong's help."
Mo Xiaobai can be said to have never asked about these city construction and war material reserves before, and he didn't even know about it at all, and he couldn't help nodding again and again after seeing it at this moment.
At the beginning of entering the plane, he summoned Li Ji to his side to assist him in building the territory.
What a blessing!
If someone else builds a city for himself, or he tosses it himself, he can't make it look like a ghost.
The construction of several dark pavilions and ice wells seems very simple, and it is even more worthless to put it bluntly, but for the current Big Dream Town, after Mo Xiaobai saw the reserves of these war preparation materials, his original hanging heart was almost half relieved.
If someone really wants to attack, the soldiers under his command will be able to meet the battle with all their strength when they climb on the wall, so that they will not be able to carry all kinds of war materials from the warehouse.
followed Li Ji to inspect the city along the road, and when Li Ji introduced all the various facilities on the wall of several hundred meters, Mo Xiaobai knew that even if it seemed that it was a simple construction of an outer city, it would take a lot of effort to command the martial arts under his command.
And Li Ji, the military manager of Dameng Town, must give him an excellent evaluation when it comes to performance appraisal.
"Mao Gong, I instruct the generals to pay more attention in the near future, and if necessary, you can send more rattan armor soldiers to assist the villagers in garrisoning." After walking around the east and west sides of the city, Mo Xiaobai immediately ordered after returning to the valley.
"Whoa."
Li Ji clenched his fists and agreed, and then asked, "Lord, could it be that there are enemy troops coming to attack?" Do you have any specific information? ”
"It's not certain yet, everything has to be prepared."
"Okay, the last general will go and discuss with General Li Guang, and send a part of the light cavalry to patrol the surrounding wilderness." Li Ji saw that Mo Xiaobai did not give a prepared reply, and did not continue to ask, but just told Mo Xiaobai about his arrangements.
"Okay, let's go."
Mo Xiaobai nodded immediately, he only thought that Li Guang would turn most of the cavalry into tiger and leopard heavy cavalry, and subconsciously ignored the ability of Li Guang's cavalry sentry.
At this moment, Li Ji mentioned it, how could he refuse.
After seeing Li Ji leave, Mo Xiaobai slowly walked back to the mansion, but as soon as he crossed the mansion gate, he saw Cheng Lia walking towards him: "My lord, your guest said that he wanted to buy you a good horse." ”
"Guests? You mean to come this morning? ”
"Yes."
Cheng Lia nodded in response, and Mo Xiaobai couldn't help but hold up his chin.
Jing Ke stabbed Qin to buy a horse for himself?
What does that mean?
"You're still in the guest room, aren't you?"
"Yes, there are two servants watching there."
"Okay, you get busy first, I'll ask him what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd." Mo Xiaobai laughed, and then walked to the guest room of the mansion.
When I came to the side courtyard of the guest room, two servants guarded one on the left and one on the right, just like the gods of the door. Mo Xiaobai raised his hand to signal that the two of them didn't have to salute, and walked over slowly.
Seeing that there was almost no movement in the house, let alone the sound of voice conversation, Mo Xiaobai looked at the door.
"Who?"
"I'm daydreaming."
As Mo Xiaobai coughed and spoke, a series of footsteps immediately sounded in the room, and then the door 'creaked' open, and Jing Ke's stabbing figure appeared in front of Mo Xiaobai.
"Are you used to living here?"
Smiled and walked into the house, Mo Xiaobai glanced at the room furnishings and sat down on a low stool: "Listen to the housekeeper in my house, do you want to buy a horse?" ”
"Yes, yes, I've been here for so long, I haven't ridden a horse yet, and I've always wanted to try it."
Jing Ke stabbed Qin and immediately nodded, and said: "Dameng Town has a lot of war horses, it has long been an open secret, and I can't find someone else to buy them now, it just so happens that you have it, you won't refuse to sell me a war horse, right?" ”
"Hehe~ What's wrong with this."
Mo Xiaobai nodded in response, and said with a smile: "I won't hide it from you, my war horses are all Dawan horses from the dungeon, and if you want a painting, I will send one later." ”
"The great god is really refreshing, so I want to pick it myself, can I? Don't worry, I'll just pick a horse that is docile and can be controlled. ”
Pick it yourself?
This guy, want to go to the horse farm?
The corners of Mo Xiaobai's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Jing Ke and Qin for a few breaths before resuming his smile: "Yes, after lunch, I will take you to see the hundreds of war horses of my big dream." ”
"Thank you for your generosity."
"It's okay, just make a friend, you rest first, I'll have someone come to you later." After speaking, Mo Xiaobai stood up, patted his ass and walked outside.
Looking at Mo Xiaobai walking away, after Jing Ke stabbed Qin and closed the door, a sneer gradually appeared on his face.
Buying a horse is just a pretext, what he really has to do is to find out where the cavalry in Big Dream Town are. If you can extinguish the war horses in Big Dream Town with a fire, Big Dream Town will inevitably be in chaos.
It's just a pity that those high-quality war horses may be able to keep one or two for their own use.
Jing Ke stabbed Qin with his own little calculations, but he didn't know that after Mo Xiaobai walked out of the side courtyard, a smile also appeared on his face.
At this moment, Mo Xiaobai was finally sure.
Someone wants to do something on their own turf!
