The Strongest Lu Bu's Sweeping Thousands of Armies

Chapter 271 You Can Don’t Need Pillars In The Room

Pengcheng was the capital chosen by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

During the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties, the city had been suppressed by the Han court and was not allowed to develop too fast.

During the Battle of Xiapi, Cao Cao launched another massacre of the city, which made the ancient city dilapidated.

Although dilapidated, Pengcheng still has a profound heritage.

It occupies a large area. Lu Bu occupied it, repaired it a little, and showed signs of restoring its former glory.

He moved a lot of people from Qingzhou to Pengcheng. This city that was slaughtered by Cao Cao is now bustling again.

Walking on the streets of Pengcheng, Lu Bu looked at the shops on both sides of the road, and said to Pang Tong: "Pengcheng really has a look now."

"I just arrived in Pengcheng, and I was also taken aback." Pang Tong said: "It is said that Cao Cao once massacred this place, but when I arrived, there was no sign of massacre at all. The place that should have been dilapidated is now full of turmoil. It can be seen how much thought Marquis Wen put in here."

"Pengcheng is the capital city chosen by the Overlord of Western Chu. Looking at the past and present, I admire him most." Lu Bu said: "Although he failed to win the world, his heroic spirit is still there."

"Marquis Wen admires Xiang Yu?" Pang Tong smiled and shook his head: "In my opinion, Xiang Yu is just a general, not the one who will win the world. If it is in today's world, it will be difficult for him to achieve great things."

"I admire him, not to become him." Lu Bu smiled lightly: "The world is in chaos. I was born in this era, and I was destined to be the destiny to put an end to the troubled times."

What he said was arrogance. Looking at the world, there are many heroes who are stronger than him.

Cao Cao in Henan, Yuan Shao in Hebei, and even Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Liu Zhang in Yizhou are not easy to deal with.

If such a thing is spread, it will easily attract a violent beating from all the heroes.

The place Pang Tong chose was not far from the Pengcheng barracks.

If the glider takes off from here, the soldiers in the barracks can see the air force hovering above their heads every day.

Arriving at the camp that will soon become an air force base, Lu Bu looked at the land that was being leveled, and said to Pang Tong, "Shi Yuan spent a lot of thought here, and the ground is so smooth."

Pointing to the barracks next door, Lu Bu continued: "Especially because it is adjacent to the barracks, the soldiers can see the air force take off every day, which is also a great encouragement to them."

"Where is Zilong?" He then asked, "As the commander of the air force, why haven't I seen him?"

"General Zhao is still in the barracks." Pang Tong replied, "It hasn't been built here, and he hasn't brought the air force soldiers over yet."

"Build it as soon as possible." Lu Bu said, "If Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu ​​really plan to deal with me, you don't have much time."

"Marquis Wen." Pang Tong said, "I don't know if I should say something or not."

"Shiyuan has something to say, just say it." Lu Bu motioned him to continue.

"Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu ​​have countless powerful generals like clouds and wise men. If they join forces, Marquis Wen will never have a chance of winning." Pang Tong said, "I wonder if Marquis Wen has any plans?"

"A plan?" Lu Bu asked, "What plan do you want?"

"Marquis Wen has been running Xuzhou for a long time, and it is quite different from the past. Do you want to watch Xuzhou being taken over by others?" Pang Tong said, "I still think we should prepare earlier and move the people to Jiangdong to take advantage of the locust plague. Relatively safe."

"Whenever there is a big migration, there will always be many people who die on the road." Lu Bu frowned and said, "Until that day, I still don't really want to do that. What's more, the people came to Xuzhou to settle down, and now I want them to live again." Go to Jiangdong, what will they think?"

"I don't mean to relocate all of them at once." Pang Tong said: "Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu ​​won't notice any abnormalities if you relocate a small amount first. If you migrate on a large scale, it will attract the attention of both of them, which will be even more unfavorable to Marquis Wen."

"I seem to understand what you mean." Lu Bu asked, "You mean that you want me to relocate the people there one by one, and establish a firm root in Jiangdong first. If Xuzhou can't hold it, we can take it easy Retreat to Jiangdong, use the Yangtze River as the boundary, and contend with powerful enemies?"

"Exactly." Pang Tong said: "Once Marquis Wen withdrew from Xuzhou, neither Cao Mengde nor Yuan Benchu ​​would pursue them aggressively. They were tied to each other, and neither of them wanted to have an empty home. One day, when they attack each other again , Marquis Wen took the opportunity to kill back, it's not that there is no chance."

"I have done so many things in Xuzhou, especially opened a coal mine." Lu Bu said: "Coal mines are very profitable, and can also forge very sophisticated weapons. I am really not reconciled to abandoning Xuzhou."

"The matter hasn't reached that point yet, and no one can tell what will happen then." Pang Tong replied: "When the two families really join forces to kill, it won't be too late for Marquis Wen to consider how to deal with the coal mine."

When he came to a place not far from the flat ground, Lu Bu saw a lot of bluestones on the ground.

"What's the purpose of this place?" He asked Pang Tong.

"Build barracks." Pang Tong replied: "The Air Force has a small number of people and doesn't need too many barracks..."

"Barracks? Why is there no foundation?" Lu Bu asked.

Pang Tongtong was at a loss: "Foundation? What do you want that for?"

"Without a foundation, how can a house be stabilized?" Lu Bu asked, "Is it possible to build a house directly on the ground like this without laying a foundation?"

"To stabilize a house, you only need to put pillars in the house before it is built." Pang Tong said: "If there are pillars to support the beams, no matter what happens, it will not collapse easily."

"You can ask the craftsmen to try not to put pillars in the house." Lu Bu said: "There is a pillar in the house, and it is always inconvenient to walk around. You can arrange craftsmen to dig a foundation on the ground, use yellow mud as the foundation, and build it. Bake it with fire, and bake the yellow mud into bricks and stones. Even if you use a sledgehammer to smash a house like that, it will not collapse so easily."

"I don't quite understand." Pang Tongtong was at a loss.

He hadn't heard of building a house without putting up pillars in the house.

Can a house be stable without pillars?

From Pang Tong's expression, Lu Bu could see his bewilderment.

Smiling slightly, he said to Pang Tong: "Shiyuan doesn't need to think too much, you don't know too much about building houses. Why don't you find the craftsmen who built the houses, and I will tell them."

"Marquis Wen personally taught the craftsmen how to build, and they must be able to build better houses." Pang Tong responded, and told the guards behind him: "Go and call the craftsmen who built the barracks."

The guards left with orders, while Pang Tong accompanied Lu Bu to continue watching the open space where the barracks were about to be built.
