Chapter 98 This is a Miracle

The sky was gloomy and dark, and the sky was covered with large swaths of black clouds. The clouds were very low, as if they were overhead, which made people feel a strong sense of depression.

Erlong Valley, that is, the original Calabash Valley, the original simple and low wall has completely changed its appearance at this time, the city wall is seven or eight feet high, and the city wall is all built with monolithic huge stones.Behind every crenel on the female wall on the city wall stood a crossbowman in full battle. Their red battle robes were covered with iron armor, an iron helmet on their heads, a long knife hanging from their waists, and a hard bow and a hand crossbow on their backs. Two pots of crossbow arrows.

And behind these crossbowmen stood a line of spearmen who were also in iron armor and had long knives hanging from their waists. They were responsible for fighting the siege enemies in close combat and driving them off the top of the city.

On the city wall behind these crossbowmen, there is a huge wooden frame a few steps away. The wooden frame is filled with stones the size of a human head, and all of them are sharp-edged stones. That feels absolutely strong enough.Beside the wooden frame, there are also large urns placed at regular intervals, covered with lids, and a huge long-handled iron spoon hanging beside it, which contains gold juice for city defense. These large urns There is a pile of firewood piled underneath.

The golden juice is the boiling hot excrement soup. When defending the city, pour this golden juice on the enemy who is attacking the city. Not only can the enemy be scalded, but also the wound infection can be incurable due to the pollution of feces.

At the same time, there are ten red-clothed cannons distributed on the city wall. There is a red-clothed cannon every two feet, and the wooden frame behind the cannon is filled with shells.

This kind of density is actually very high. If the valley mouth is not narrow and the city wall is not long enough, Jiang Chuan would like to arrange all the red cannons on the city wall.

A huge city gate that was more than one foot higher than the city wall stood in the middle of the valley entrance. The city gate was fully three feet wide and eight feet high, allowing five or six war horses to pass through at the same time.The huge and thick black suspension bridge on the city gate was lowered, like the tongue of a giant beast sticking out.

On the top of the city gate is a tall city tower, which is divided into three floors, which can be used for generals to rest, command operations, store supplies, and treat the wounded.Of course, there are also many shooting ports in the city tower, and crossbowmen can also be stationed in them, and attack the enemy from these shooting ports.

And behind the city walls on both sides of the city gate, there are two huge three-story stone towers that are twice as high as the city walls.The stone tower and the city wall are connected with wide and thick wooden boards, allowing people to walk back and forth.If the enemy attacks the city wall, the defenders in the stone tower can prevent the enemy from attacking the stone tower as long as they move the planks.The first and second floors of the stone tower are the caves for soldiers, through which the stairs that rotate can lead to the top of the stone tower.

The top of the stone tower is surrounded by high wall stacks to form a circle, and there are also crossbowmen stationed on it.And it is also equipped with a huge ballista.

This kind of ballista needs to be operated by at least two people at the same time before it can be fired, and the crossbow bolts on it look as long and thick as a spear.In addition to the ballista, there are two red cannons with barrels nearly two feet above the stone tower. The black muzzles stretched obliquely into the air, as if waiting to be fired at any time.

Looking up from the stone towers, there are also two tall stone towers on the top of the towering stone mountains on both sides of the valley mouth, which are still equipped with crossbowmen and ballistas.

One of the functions of these two stone towers is to use the height advantage to look out and observe the enemy's situation. In addition, once the enemy attacks the city wall or even the stone tower behind the city wall, they can use the height difference to shoot condescendingly to suppress the enemy.

Jiang Chuan also wanted to put a red cannon on it, but he finally gave up considering the shooting angle.

Under the suspension bridge is a newly dug moat. It is a bit exaggerated to say that it is a moat, but it is nothing more than a deep ditch dug straight in front of the entire valley mouth.

The ditch was more than two feet wide and three feet deep, and the bottom of the ditch was covered with countless sharp hardwood thorns, iron thorns, iron nails and other sharp objects.And if you get closer, you can smell the stench coming from the bottom of the ditch, which is naturally because these sharp objects have been soaked in human excrement and urine.

By the side of the ditch, many figures are busy setting up camouflage on the ditch. First, they cover the ditch with a thin layer of wood, then cover the board with grass leaves and branches, and finally sprinkle a layer of floating soil on it. The camouflage looks the same as the surrounding landforms.

Jiang Chuan led Liu Ji along the city wall and was patrolling. Liu Ji kept his eyes straight all the way, and the surprised expression on his face showed that he, who has always been calm, was really shocked.

"General, can you tell me how you managed to build such a huge and well-defended fortress in just a few days? This is simply unbelievable, comparable to a miracle, no, it should be a miracle !"

Liu Ji touched the cold bluestone on the top of the city, and finally couldn't help but said to Jiang Chuan.

He was really surprised.Originally thought that Jiang Chuan said that he would strengthen the defense of Taniguchi and rebuild the wall of the village, which meant making small troubles and making small repairs.

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, after removing the fence, what he saw was such a large-scale, towering, majestic, fully functional, and well-defended fortress, which caused a huge wave in his heart.

This completely overturned his previous cognition.You must know that building a city wall is not an easy task. Every big city in the world will consume countless manpower, and it will take at least a few years or even ten years to complete.

Although the fortress under his feet could not be regarded as a city, he felt that there was no other way to explain it except for miracles to complete such a siege in just a few days.

Even though he knew that the young man in front of him was full of mysteries, and there must be a shocking secret hidden in him, but he couldn't help but exclaim when he saw this.

"Military teacher, there are some things that I can't explain clearly in a few words. It's the same sentence. One day, when the time is right, you will naturally know the reason. At present, you can also understand it as a miracle. Because there are some things that I can't understand, and There is too much involved in it, and I am inconvenient to disclose it at the moment. However, there is one thing that the military advisor can rest assured of. If you treat me with sincerity, I will treat you as a soldier of the country. This life will never be the same! This is my promise. Of course, if the military advisor thinks I deliberately lied. If I don’t feel angry, I will not force the military division to stay. The military division can leave at any time if it wants to.

Jiang Chuan turned around and looked into Liu Ji's eyes. His voice was calm, but his eyes were full of sincerity.

In fact, Liu Ji's heart was also turbulent, with ups and downs.Regarding Jiang Chuan's concealment from him, he naturally had no thoughts in his heart, and he once thought about leaving.But apart from this point, Jiang Chuan trusted and respected him in other matters. Looking at Jiang Chuan's sincere eyes at this time, Liu Ji hesitated for a while.

This young man seemed to be shrouded in a thick mist, he couldn't figure it out, he couldn't see clearly, but he always attracted me to see clearly, and helped him step by step towards the place that might never be reachable. Location.

But if he leaves, where can Liu Ji go?Who can use what he has learned in this body?Can I still meet such a trusting, honest and sincere protagonist?

After a long time, Liu Ji's expression finally calmed down. He took a step back, stretched his hands together, and suddenly bowed deeply to Jiang Chuan and said solemnly: "Liu Ji sees the lord!"

Jiang Chuan smiled, he knew that Liu Ji at this moment really regarded himself as the one who could be assisted, and truly tied his fate with himself.

"Military advisers are invited. Jiang Chuan is really lucky to have the help of military advisers. It is the same sentence, the army treats me with sincerity, and I will treat the king as a soldier of the country. The road is long, let's go and see." Jiang Chuan helped Liu Ji, an extremely dignified way.

The two held hands and looked at each other, and they both saw a kind of joy, a kind of trust, and a kind of expectation in each other's eyes. Looking at each other, they suddenly burst out laughing at the same time.

The hearty and hearty laughter of the two rushed to the sky, which seemed to brighten up the cloudy sky.

 The second one arrives.Thank you for your votes.There are so many votes, some vote for the old cat.
