Infrastructure: I survive in troubled times

Chapter 446 The Great Wall
It's freezing cold, and apart from the necessary training, there is another big winter training in the barracks.

Other outdoor work has stopped, and there are endless things to do in the house.

The farm tools in the hands of the men should be repaired, and the fields will be planted in the spring, and the baskets for picking soil must be repaired.

When the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, it is necessary to pick up the retting manure to the fields and fertilize the winter wheat.

Don't look at the fact that it's too cold to go out now, time flies, and it's warm in the blink of an eye, so I have to change out my thick winter clothes and wear jackets and summer clothes.

All these require women to sew stitches one by one, especially the shoes are more expensive.

These paper shoes have a short lifespan. Under high-intensity training, they can last a month at most, or twenty days at least.

Fortunately, papermaking is simple, and there are a lot of raw materials, which reduces the cost, otherwise it is unaffordable.

Everyone has to train barefoot.

Another heavy snow covered people in the house, unable to move.

Hong Lianshuo also finished the sand table intermittently.

"It's exactly the same!" Chen Zhongyuan said in amazement with his eyes blinking like copper bells.

"When the spring blossoms, we have to deploy our defenses." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with cold eyes and said.

"Defense?" Lin Nanzheng looked at her with flickering phoenix eyes and said, "It is necessary to deploy defense, otherwise we will not know that the enemy is coming, and it will be too late to find out when the soldiers approach the city."

"It's too late to hide in the city." Jiang Shuisheng agreed.

Han Qinhu rubbed his chin with his index finger and stood in front of the sand table, pointed at the sand table and said, "Don't think too much about the east, the key is the north, south and west."

"There is the Great Wall to the north to block it." Lin Nanzheng tapped the wooden side of the sand table with his index finger.

"What are you blocking? Didn't Yi Di come from the north?" Chen Zhongyuan said bluntly.

"That's because the messenger didn't take responsibility. The enemy came and didn't even light up the smoke." Lin Nanzheng said angrily with a dark face.

"Even if the messengers are in charge, the Great Wall can't stop Yidi's cavalry." Jiang Shuisheng looked at them with deep black eyes and said.

Hearing this, Han Qinhu thought for a while and looked at them with brown eyes, "The origin of the Great Wall can be traced back to the Western Zhou Dynasty. , so the construction of the Great Wall also entered the first climax period, and then after Qin destroyed the six kingdoms and unified the world; Qin Shihuang connected and repaired the Great Wall of the Warring States Period, so it became known as the Great Wall. The Han Dynasty, and even Yidi also followed. The Great Wall is An important fortification against the invasion of the Huns, but it did not stop the iron cavalry from going south."

"Yi Di also built the Great Wall?" Hong Lianshuo looked at them in surprise and asked.

"That's right!" Han Qinhu looked at her with light brown pupils and said, "There is still a lot of cultivation!"

"Ms. Hong, you don't want to build the Great Wall, do you?" Lin Nanzheng looked at her worriedly and said, "This is a waste of money and people."

"Rather than building the Great Wall, I might as well build roads!" Hong Lianshuo casually said while looking at Qi Shushuo with his worried eyes, and after thinking for a while, he said, "The Great Wall is empty, it's the dream of a hundred generations of heroes." Pointing to his own Xinxin said, "The real Great Wall is in the heart, and it is unity." Looking at them with deep and firm eyes, he said, "It is a strong and unyielding soul, and it is to live and die for the people. , Although nine deaths, no regrets."

"Pa..." Chen Zhongyuan clasped his fists and said like thunder, "Ms. Hong."

"Ms. Hong." Han Qinhu and the others looked resolute, and looked at her with firm eyes, clasping fists and saluting.

"Let's get down to business, where is the Great Wall built? Can it be used for us?" Hong Lianshuo looked at them expectantly and asked.

"Since the Yidi invaded the Central Plains, they have been actively learning the culture of the Han family, that is, Sinicization." Han Qinhu looked at her with dark brown eyes and said, "Especially the Tuoba clan of the Xianbei family is the most active, and after generations of Sinicization , but found that a group of people quietly became stronger in the north, and this group of people is the Rouran people." After a pause, he continued, "This Rouran person was originally a servant of the Tuoba tribe, but later slipped away by himself and ran to the north to develop. Taking advantage of the massacres in the south of the old club Tuoba tribe, frantically annexed small tribes, expanded its strength, and became a powerful slavery tribal alliance. As a result, Feng Shui took turns, and now the Tuoba tribe of the Xianbei began to worry about the invasion of nomads from the north."

"So we started to build the Great Wall." Chen Zhongyuan said with a smile.

"Yes!" Han Qinhu looked at them with brown pupils and said unhurriedly, "The Xianbei people and the Rouran people have fought one battle after another. , was exhausted. Ever since, the emperor thought of a very Chinese idea: to build the Great Wall."

"What's the approximate scope of the construction?" Hong Lianshuo asked curiously with his eyebrows slightly raised.

"Oh! This range is huge." Han Qinhu said immediately after hearing the words, "Build the Great Wall in the south of Changchuan, starting from Chicheng, west to Wuyuan, extending more than two thousand miles, and preparing for garrison. This The first Great Wall was built on the basis of Zhao Great Wall in the Warring States Period. The general route starts from the east of Chicheng County, goes south to the junction of Chongli County and Chicheng County, turns west to Wanquan, the junction of Zhangbei County, and then enters Xinghe County, then pass through Fengzhen, Chayouqian Banner, Chayouhouqi Banner, and reach Guyang County in the cloud, spreading widely."

Han Qinhu looked at them with amber eyes and said, "This emperor will build it, and the next emperor will continue to build it. In the territory of Liaodong, another 10 people will build a section of the Great Wall. You, Ding, and [-] people in Jisizhou are in Shanggu. Along the Yandu City-Zhuolu County-Yu County-Guangling County-Ningwu County, a large ring line encircling the northwestern part of Youzhou in the middle and northern part of Jinzhong was built to protect Pingcheng, which is the Great Wall of Huanzhou. "

Lin Nanzheng looked at the dazed Chen Zhongyuan and the others, shaking his head and laughing, "There is no specific map, it sounds like a cloud of mist!"

Not only they couldn't understand, even Hong Lianshuo couldn't understand, Han Qinhu used an old name, how did she know that!
There is a big difference between ancient and modern times.

"On the basis of the sand table, you can roughly draw north and west." Hong Lianshuo said bluntly.

Han Qinhu roughly drew on the ground, "It's probably like this."

"What about now?" Hong Wangyue asked as he looked at them with big eyes full of curiosity.

"It's torn apart, no matter how well the Great Wall is built, if the people's livelihood is not good inside, internal troubles will emerge: the people of the six towns stationed on the Great Wall are overwhelmed and rebel one after another, and the last emperor of the Tuoba tribe is so stupid that he invites people from Rouran to help Put down the rebellion." Han Qinhu shook his head again and again.

"It's over, the tiger didn't drive away, and it led the wolf into the house." Cao Yuanshan said with his eyes widened.
