In just a few days, the Wu Clan's canal has been built for more than a hundred miles, and has truly reached the five hundred mile dividing line. From here, it can reach Qingming in one day and launch an attack.
Most of the gaps in Ding'an City have been repaired, and new city towers have been rebuilt. At this moment, in several sections of the city wall that have not yet been completely completed, many Daoji monks are carrying hundreds of kilograms of large stones and putting them in one by one.
In a cage made of steel bars.
The inside of the new city wall was made of steel bars forming a lattice cage. The large rocks were first placed, then the gravel was poured, and then cement was poured for each layer, so it was built extremely quickly.
As an important material that Xu Wenwu has repeatedly mentioned, cement has actually been on the agenda for a long time, but its importance has always been ranked behind gunpowder, firearms, forged iron and medicine gardens. Not much manpower and material resources have been invested, so the progress has been slow.
This time with the massive invasion of the Kingdom of Rain, the importance of cement has finally increased. A Tiangong Temple disciple was assigned to take charge of this matter, and more than ten Daoji monks were assigned as assistants. Finally, a breakthrough was made, but the performance of the preparation
It's very general. Based on experience and Dharma Bird's judgment, Yu Zhizhuo concluded that this problem should be the same as gunpowder, and it is a problem of formula material ratio.
There is no perfect way to find the optimal ratio, it just requires repeated testing.
After Ding'an City was bombed, the importance of cement jumped to the top of the list, so Yu Zhizhuo used all his Dharma skills on it, and finally succeeded in improving the formula. Although the new cement was not as good as Xu Wenwu's
Not very descriptive, but ready for use.
So during these days, Wei Yuan specially deployed five thousand cast monks to burn cement on a large scale to rebuild Ding'an City.
The newly built city wall made of cement is actually not as strong as the traditional ancient method. Fortunately, although Xu Wenwu does not remember the formula of cement, he has seen cement and knows the literal meaning of the words reinforced concrete.
For talented monks like Yu Zhizhuo, the information revealed by a rigorous name is enough.
So Yu Zhizhuo came up with the construction method of steel hoops, which were based on boulders, buffered with gravel, and poured with cement. The progress was rapid. As for the unqualified cement and insufficient local strength, Yu Zhizhuo's response was to directly
The city wall was thickened by one foot.
Then, in order to deal with the explosive arrows of the Wu tribe, Yu Zhizhuo also referred to the concept of bunkers mentioned by Xu Wenwu, and built bunkers at every other section on the city wall, using reinforced cement as the wall and steel plates as the front wall and roof. The towers were updated
It was simply built into a steel fortress.
In addition, the Witch Clan's sharpshooters and water-ball-throwing monsters are huge threats, and their range is farther than the short-barreled cannon.
In this regard, Human Fireworks has come up with an improvement plan, which is to cast a batch of barrels, connect them directly to the current short-barreled guns, lengthen the barrels, and increase the charge.
Wei Yuan found a few cannons and tried this method. Sure enough, the range was significantly improved, and one cannon could hit thirteen or fourteen miles. This method was crude, but it was indeed effective.
The disadvantage is that the landing point is not so accurate, and the cannon is also easily damaged. It can probably fire more than a hundred rounds at most.
But this is not a problem. It does not matter if the cannon is deflected at all. As long as it can be hit, those slow-moving behemoths of the Witch Clan will not dare to show up easily again.
In addition, statistics on human fireworks show that since the introduction of short-barreled cannons, on average each cannon will be destroyed after firing fifteen rounds, which does not have a natural lifespan of a hundred rounds.
Another new weapon is the spray cannon missile developed by Wei Yuan based on the inspiration from the spray cannon. This missile was very effective in the previous battle, so Yu Zhizhuo specially improved it, and the plan went through human fireworks.
After repeated optimization, a new version of the spray cannon missile was determined.
The new cannon missile is larger and heavier. The front section is fired by the rail gun, and the cannon is activated for a second acceleration in the middle section. The end section is guided by the Dharma monk with his spiritual consciousness. Its speed is comparable to that of a flying sword. After landing, it can kill within twenty feet of the surrounding area.
All Taoist priests and great wizards will be seriously injured even if their hearts explode.
In the forging workshop, Wei Yuanzheng, Yu Zhizhuo, and Sun Yu were discussing the advanced use of this spray cannon missile. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he sensed two airships approaching the boundary, and then flew directly towards the landing field.
With the help of Qing Ming, Wei Yuan scanned his consciousness and discovered that they were two flying boats from Taichu Palace. So he spoke to Yu Zhizhuo and Sun Yu and flew towards the landing place of the flying boats.
The two Taichu Palace flying boats were not big, and they had just stopped when Wei Yuan arrived. There were obvious traces of war and repairs on the outer shell of the flying boats. It was obvious that they had not been repaired in time before they rushed over.
When the cabin door of the flying boat opened, a young monk with a smile walked out. He looked around and said, "This place is really dangerous."
Wei Yuan was surprised and happy. He took a step forward and said, "Mr. Feng? Why are you here?"
This young monk was none other than Feng Chutang, who taught two subjects of history, including the general history of the human race. Wei Yuan learned half of his history from Zhang Sheng and half from Feng Chutang.
Feng Chutang smiled and said: "I heard that Qing Ming's situation is critical, and I happened to be out of seclusion, so I escorted the disciples of Tianqing Shuiyue Hall over to practice. I can stay with you for a while and review the witchcraft of the Wu Clan."
Wei Yuan was naturally surprised and happy.
Among the monks of the previous generation, Feng Chutang was ranked alongside Ji Liuli and Zhang Sheng. His talent was not inferior to that of Xu Henshui, even Feng Tingyu. In fact, in terms of talent, there was another one who was quite powerful among the previous generation, and that was the generation from Mingwangdian.
Big Brother Wang Hu.
If Feng Tingyu only has more muscles in his head, then Senior Brother Wang Hu's head is full of muscles, so he cannot be tied with the three of them.
Feng Chutang looked Wei Yuan up and down and praised: "As expected, he is the first person of the younger generation below the two Immortal Lords! But I heard that your teacher has something wrong, how is it now?"
Wei Yuan said: "Teacher has reorganized his Taoist mind and will start rebuilding it soon."
"Oh? Is she okay? Come on, take me to see her."
Wei Yuan hurriedly said: "There are many brothers on the boat."
"I almost forgot if you didn't tell me." Feng Chutang waved his sleeves, and the doors of the two flying boats opened wide, and thirty or forty disciples stepped out from them. Some were monks, some were in Taoist attire, and their ages were also different, some were childish and some were immature.
Fading, there are also signs of vicissitudes of life in the corners of the eyes.
The person escorting the other flying boat was Master Lanhua, whom Wei Yuan was also familiar with.
A pretty girl jumped in front of Wei Yuan and said, "Senior Brother Wei! I'm back!"
Wei Yuan saw that it was Fei Yutong, a genius disciple of Shuiyue Palace. The last time she was about to break through, she was recalled by the real person in the palace to retreat. This time when they met again, she was already in the late stage of Daoji. Although she had just entered the late stage of Daoji, she
He is two years younger than Wei Yuan, and his progress in cultivation is truly terrifying.
Wei Yuan and Fei Yutong said a few words, and then some monks came over to take these Taichu Palace disciples to their residence to settle down. After Wei Yuan and Master Lanhua saw the ceremony, they and Feng Chutang flew to Zhang Sheng's residence on the main peak.
On the way, Feng Chutang said: "I have roughly heard what happened, but I can't really blame you for this. Even if it weren't for the Karma Curse, your teacher's Taoist heart would have problems sooner or later. Now that it can be broken and then established,
Returning to the right path can be considered a good thing."
"Why did Mr. Feng say that?"
Feng Chutang smiled and said: "Both your teacher and Ji Liuli have lofty ideals. Just cultivating the immortal form is not enough. They always want to go one step further, so they are all cultivating the power of invincibility. There is nothing wrong with cultivating the power of invincibility, but there are many
To be honest, it would be outrageous for the two of them to be together every day like that, and it would be strange if nothing happened."
Wei Yuan thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case. Fortunately, the time for him to become invincible was short-lived, and it was after Zhang Sheng was seriously injured. Otherwise, there would probably be conflicts.
"Since Mr. Feng is so knowledgeable, why didn't he remind them in the first place?" Wei Yuan said with a hint of blame.
Feng Chutang said helplessly: "I have reminded you, but every time I remind you, there will be a big fight. The two of them are neither gentle nor serious, so only a ghost would be willing to compete with them."
The two flew slowly and quickly, and soon arrived at Zhang Sheng's residence and landed in the courtyard.
Wei Yuan knocked on the door, and Zhang Sheng's voice came from inside the house: "Come in."
When Wei Yuan and Feng Chutang entered the door, they saw Zhang Sheng standing in front of the window with his hands behind his hands, looking at the green skyline in the distance.
When the two of them entered the study, Zhang Shengcai slowly turned around and said to Feng Chutang, "You are here too."
"I heard that the situation here is dangerous, so I naturally came here." After saying that, Feng Chutang also looked at Zhang Sheng and said: "I remember that when you were called Zhang Sheng, you were less than ten years old. I didn't expect that so many years would pass in the blink of an eye.
.Should I call you Zhang Sheng or Zhang Sheng now?"
Zhang Sheng said calmly: "Whether it's a man or a woman, they are just appearances. It doesn't matter whether they are good or bad. As long as they can beat you, they are good. So you can call them whatever you want. But now I am more used to Zhang Sheng."
Feng Chutang snorted and said, "Speak as if you have defeated me."
"Have you ever won?"
"Does this count?" Feng Chutang waved his sleeves, and an image appeared in front of him. It was two children rolling and wrestling. Then the little boy grabbed the little girl and pushed her into the mud. The scene was frozen.
.
Zhang Sheng sneered and waved an image.
It seemed to be the second half of Feng Chutang's image. Two children were fighting in the mud, but the little boy had one eye as black as a panda. The little girl's face was unscathed. Although it was covered with black mud, it was still
It can be vaguely seen that it is bright and colorful.
Wei Yuan was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that his teacher had such a wonderful history.
Zhang Sheng sneered again, pointed at Wei Yuan, and said: "You were just lucky enough to take the first step, it's nothing special. You are probably no match for my apprentice now, so what qualifications do you have to be arrogant?"
Feng Chutang looked a little strange and said, "Is this your new invincibility?"
"Of course not."
Feng Chutang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good. Huh, you can't even defeat your own apprentice, so why are you so arrogant?"
Wei Yuan felt that an unreasonable disaster had fallen on his head. Didn't you two quarrel with him? Why did he get involved again?
When Feng Chutang saw it, he smiled and patted Wei Yuan on the shoulder, saying: "Your teacher, I teach history. When have we ever lost in a quarrel? When I have time later, I will teach you how to quarrel."
In fact, if you want to make people half-dead, the first way is to use the two words yin and yang. A person like her who will take action if she can't win an argument has already fallen into the inferior position."
