Chapter 602 Preliminary preparations for building the city
The Great Yin Hu Ben has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Although it gradually evolved from regular field combat soldiers, Daxia has only been a clan history for a hundred years. In this regard, Daxia is really a younger brother.
This matter was directly handed over to Elder Lu and Elder Yang, which can be regarded as the final embodiment of the value of the Tiger Ten Thousand Man, Wutianling.
Then, Xia Tuo first allocated 500,000 yuan to the witchyard, and the rest were stored in the clan treasury.
His eyes also fell on the construction of the city. The location of the city he chose was on the four wastelands on the southeast of Wangu Road and the west side of the Heling Mountains.
The four-sided wasteland is a name he gave casually. This wasteland area has no large tribes within a radius of thousands of miles, and is already very deserted. It is leaning against the Bailu City to the northwest, and the Nine Beast City to the west, and the Soul Mountain City to the south.
The area is wide, with occasionally mountains but not large undulating, and they are all small hills and rivers.
...
On this day, all the elders of the ministers were there in the Great Xia Tribe Hall.
Xia Tuo officially told the elders that he wanted to build a big city in the wilderness in all directions. The elders of each hall showed surprise in their eyes, and then after a while...
Then there was nothing.
If the clan leader builds the city, just build it.
Is there any problem?
There seems to be no problem at all.
We will do whatever the patriarch says.
Xia Tuo saw the scene in the hall, and this scene was as expected by him. In Daxia, his words were originally just like the word.
Previously, he had not really talked about the idea of building a city with the elders in the clan, and naturally he didn't say much about establishing a clan court after the city was established. The reason why he did not say it completely was because he was afraid of being spyed.
Of course, he didn't say that his tribe members were unreliable, but that they all said it. There were too many people and they would be heard by outsiders if they were not careful. There are many spies in the territory of Daxia now.
Building a city is a huge project, requiring a large amount of earth, stone, wood, god gold ore, etc. These will add up to a huge number, so all parties in Daxia need to take action.
Then, while Xia Tuo waved his hand, the elders in the hall all had an animal skin scroll in their hands, which contained various data about the city.
The big city planned by Xiatuo is square, two hundred miles long each east, south and north, and three hundred feet high. A city tower is set up at the top of the city every ten miles, and three gates are set up on each wall.
An inner city is also square in the middle of the city, with a length of fifty miles each. It is a reserved place for the Daxia people, and the outer city is a place for the gathering of warriors from all directions.
The elders in the hall looked at the drawings in their hands and showed a look of contemplation.
This city is indeed not small, and they don’t build a city like a casual cultivator, just build it with stones. There are also various defenses in the city, various pre-arranged formations, etc.
Not only that, according to Xia Tuo's plan, the city wall is not only built on the wasteland, but also the foundation must be laid, and the depth of the earth is a hundred feet, and the stones are poured with iron.
In this way, the city wall is four hundred feet high, which is definitely a huge project.
"Clan leader, such a huge city requires a lot of stone and ore. There can be so many stones in the wilderness in the four directions, and we still need to water the iron."
Hearing the sound, Xia Tuo said out loud: "The watered iron can be added with ordinary iron ore to add some divine gold. Our clan has reserved a large amount of ore over the years. Even if the quantity is insufficient in the end, these ores are easily obtained in the territory. As for the stones taken from Heling Mountain and the wood taken from the ancient wilderness."
"Clan leader, if you transport stones, it is most convenient to transport water. I think the artificial canal connecting Heling Mountain and the wildernesses in all directions is used to transport the stones from Heling Mountain."
Elder Feng spoke out and said that when it comes to digging the canal, Daxia is very experienced and has dug it out. At this moment, the head of the hall entered the state under the order of Xia Tuo Jiancheng and began to think about how to do things.
"As for giant trees, if you cut down giant trees from the wild ancient land in the west of Lingzhou, it seems a bit far away. It is better to directly obtain large trees from the wild ancient land on the west side of Wangu Road.
There is a Shanhong River in the south of Wangu Road. In this way, it directly uses the water conservancy of the Shanhong River to dig a section of canal westward to connect to the wild ancient land.
On the east side of Shanhong River, you can directly dig a canal to the north to connect the wastelands in all directions.”
For a moment, every word in the hall described the preparations for the early stage of building the city.
Take stones from Heling Mountain, wood from the ancient wilderness and transport them through canals.
"alright."
The clan discussion lasted from morning to afternoon. While listening, Xia Tuo accepted the useful item proposed by the elder and finally came down to it.
"Elder Feng, I issued an edict to all the vassal tribes on the territory of Daxia. Starting this year, all the tributes of each tribe will be mainly iron ore.
An edict was issued to Wangu Road, and personnel were drawn from the Bailu City and the Jinhu City to dig the artificial canal leading to the four wastelands.
The Huai River City, the Lushi City is responsible for the canal connecting the wilderness and ancient land to the west, and the Hunshan City is responsible for the digging of the canal in the east of the Shanhong River."
Speaking of this, Xia Tuo paused and then said, "Digging the canal is only the first step. The next thing the Clan Affairs Hall and the Clan Domain Hall need to do is to coordinate and prepare to draw personnel from all cities and tribes within the territory.
Blacksmiths, stonemasons, carpenters, totem warriors, witches, wizards, etc. How many people should be drawn for each tribe and city according to actual conditions, how long should each be recruited, and how many resources should be provided for them. These tribe affairs halls must draw a charter."
"There is also the Daxia Witch Courtyard. What the academy has to do is to create a wooden structure of the Daxia City based on the picture in my hand.
To be meticulous, every brick and stone in the city must be clear, the witch patterns on the surface of pavilions and towers must be clear, and what kind of defenses and formations need to be arranged, these things will be handed over to the witch court and the academy."
...
As the saying goes, if the craftsman is good, you must first sharpen your tools. Before the city is built, you must do it first. Xia Tuo ordered everything that happened, and the elders of each hall walked out of the clan hall with pressure from each other.
In the hall, only Xia Tuo was left thinking.
After a moment, he came back to his senses and found that he had become the easiest person again. It was such a big thing about building a city, and there were so many things. After he arranged it one by one, he found it was so simple that it seemed that nothing happened to him.
Of course, if he, the patriarch, took it as a clan leader, things would be even simpler, such as going to Heling Mountain to quarry and logging wood in the ancient wilderness. With his strength in the magical power realm, he could save his old kung fu.
This is the case, but he is the leader of the Daxia clan and has so many people under his command. If he comes to do it, why should he be the leader of this clan?
To put it bluntly, things in the wild land are even simpler. Why should the Great Yin royal court rule over ten thousand troops? It is so troublesome and laborious? The ancestor who established the royal court then took action himself and beat everyone to death, wouldn’t it be over?
In fact, to put it bluntly, it means doing whatever you have. If the supernatural realm does everything, then people below the supernatural realm will no longer exist because they have no value.
He is the leader of the Daxia tribe. In this acre of three-point land in Daxia, he only needs to issue orders. If his hands are really itchy, he can move and experience the people of Daxia, but that's all.
After thinking about it for a long time, Xia Tuo felt that this should be the so-called class.
...
After this clan discussion, a series of edicts were sent from the Daxia tribe to all parts of the territory of Daxia, and all the places became busy all the time.
The first person to be recruited were the scattered people from the ruins of the Jinyang Bo tribe. After they hollowed out Jinyang Mountain, the elderly, weak, women and children had been sent to the nearest Bailocust city to be resettled.
A total of 150,000 young and strong people were selected from these scattered people.
This group of young and strong people was divided into three parts. Fifty thousand people would go to the wilderness in all directions, fifty thousand people would go to Heling Mountain, and fifty thousand people would go to the edge of the ancient wilderness.
Their first task is to build a camp and build a place for the young and strong to come.
Before again, in the wild ancient land of Heling Mountain and the extreme west of Shanhong River, two soldiers from the Heavenly Bing Hall had already entered it, clearing out ferocious beasts, cleaning up miasma, and preparing for the next mining.
It was not fast to pack up the luggage. When Long Xiangsheng escorted the first batch of 20,000 young and strong people set off from the White Locust Domain, it was already one and a half months after the clan discussion.
Daxia did not regard these young and strong men as slaves. Everyone would have a salary for their work, and they would be given a pension for their injuries or unfortunate deaths.
Before leaving, everyone registered their address and the situation at home, which is also why Long Xiangsheng was unhappy.
Originally, these scattered people were scattered in various places in the Bailou Road and re-summoned them and had to register their identity and address. One and a half months were no longer long.
Even though it was 20,000 people who relied on the Cave Heaven Witch Treasure, it took about ten days for Long Xiangsheng to send the group of people to the wilderness in all directions.
The clan is busy, and Xia Tuo is not really lazy. He wants to solve a potential hidden danger. After the Daxia clan's family has established a foothold in the Western wasteland, the place north of the Kugu is the hinterland of Daxia.
Simply put, it is his private area of Xia, but someone else's vegetable grows in his private area, which is not fun.
...
Wugu Mountain, the Hall of the Eternal Life Cult.
Xia Tuo looked at the dilapidated cave in front of him. He had never touched the Celestial Sect over the years. Even though this was just the smallest branch of the Celestial Sect, he even secretly hunted and killed many people, so he chose to ignore it.
For such a sect that is fanatical and believe in Xuanniao, people are instinctively alert.
Unlike the Slave Hall, the Slave Hall can be impressed with benefits, but many people in the Changsheng Sect can dedicate their lives to the Destined Xuanniao at any time. What a f*cking benefit.
