I pointed to the building complex beside the city wall and said, "Do you make this place a residential area? Let our brother's family live here? Who designed this?"

A fat designer walked out tremblingly and said at a loss: "This...I arranged this, I came according to the convention, is there anything wrong?"

Convention?

I frowned in confusion and looked at the fat designer and said, "Tell me, what's going on with your so-called routine?"

The fat designer walked to the design drawings and pointed to the design drawings and said, "Generally speaking, residential areas are set up in peripheral areas. Because residential areas are low in cost, there is no loss even if they are broken. Just build them again. Commercial areas and industrial areas are more important and must be built in the center so as to avoid the harm caused by war."

I waved my hand and signaled the fat designer to go back. It was true... nothing wrong with what he thought, but... it was not what I wanted.

Looking at the winning smiles of more than a dozen designers, I knew they were secretly happy. Finally, there was a place that didn't need to be changed. They finally had a place to suppress me.

I scratched the drawings and said coldly: "I really don't understand what you think of this design, but... I will never use such drawings to build our city."

Everyone was shocked and wondered if I was so angry that I actually crushed the drawings they had drawn. Although there was still preparation for the draft, this attitude was too wrong.

Looking at their angry faces, I said gloomyly: "Don't be angry. Since you are a scholar, you should understand everything and do it carefully. There is no need for such inappropriate things to exist."

Before they could start refuting, I looked at the fat designer and said, "Usually, there is no problem with your design like that, but we are the gang station here, and our design should be based on combat."

Looking at the puzzled eyes of everyone, I explained: "Do you think there is no problem with the warrior's home beside the city wall? Imagine if the enemy attacks and the warriors on the city wall watch their homes be destroyed, will they not be hit? Will they continue to work hard for us? Is this the leader who only considers money worthy of their loyalty?"

Everyone was stunned, no one thought about this, indeed... if it were them, after seeing their homes being destroyed, they would lose their fighting spirit. At least they would worry about the safety of their families and their minds would be disturbed. Can such troops win battles?

I took a new piece of paper, took a pen and looked up and said to everyone, "I will draw the drawings later and explain the size and functions of each place. Please listen carefully, because next, you will make a new drawing according to my requirements."

Seeing that everyone nodded and knew, I picked up the pen and started drawing on the new paper.

I first drew a square box and said to everyone: "This is a city wall, with a side length of ten kilometers, which means that our city is a big city of 100 square kilometers."

I pointed to the city wall and said, "This city wall is 40 meters high and 20 meters thick. It is all built of granite. Outside the city wall is a circle of moats, 50 meters wide and 30 meters deep. It attracts live water from this lake. However, in this regard, it is important to pay attention to the water diversion channel underground to prevent it from being destroyed by others."

I pointed to the city wall and said, "In the four directions of the city wall, one city gate is opened in each direction, and all the gates are hung doors. The location of the city gate is about ten meters higher than the ground plane."

Everyone was shocked. They didn't understand why the city gate was ten meters higher than the ground level.

Seeing that everyone didn't understand, I explained: "When the suspension bridge is lowered, the city gate will become an inclined slope, suitable for our cavalry charges, and not conducive to the opponent's impact."

After looking at everyone's admiring eyes, I continued to explain: "And... even if they fill the moat, they cannot use a city gate car to hit the city gate, because the city gate is ten meters higher than the ground, so this design is beneficial to us and harmful to the enemy."

More than a dozen craftsmen were completely convinced, yes... The cavalry rushed down from the slope, and their destructive power and impact force would be increased exponentially. Why didn't they think of such a simple and practical design?

Looking at the admiring eyes of everyone, I was also a little proud. This was something I thought of by myself, not to learn from the wisdom of anyone else.

I was proud, but soon woke up and continued, "In order not to allow the enemy to attack other places, four sturdy bridges must be built opposite the moat under the four gates so that those enemies can attack us from here, because this is the most difficult place to attack."

At this time, more than a dozen designers were convinced by me, without any questions, nor did they ask me why it is the most difficult to attack here, so I prepared a lot of words and had no chance to say them.

After seeing that everyone had already remembered what I said, I picked up the pen and drew a circle of thin lines around the inner side of the city wall. I pointed to it and said: "This thin line around the city wall is a 100-meter-wide avenue. It was only a hundred meters away that the construction of buildings began. However, it could not be a residential house, but some auxiliary series stores such as grocery stores, pharmaceutical stores, weapon repair shops, etc. These stores do not need to be too luxurious, as long as they can shelter from wind and rain."

Everyone looked at me with doubt. They didn't understand why I set up a road of 100 meters wide in the city wall. Near the main road, I didn't build houses, but some auxiliary shops, so where are the residential areas built?

Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, I had to explain: "If the opponent attacks the city, then the buildings within 150 meters of the city wall will enter the opponent's attack range, so... no buildings should be built here, because even if they are built, they will definitely be destroyed in the war, so I will not build them at all."

Looking at everyone's awakening expression, I smiled mysteriously and continued to explain: "And there is another benefit to doing this. With a great way, our efficiency in dispatching troops and generals during battle will also be greatly improved."

I waved my pen and drew two lines on the drawings, connecting the two city gates from east to west and north to south, and then explained: "These two roads are also 100 meters wide roads, which makes it easier for us to allocate personnel at any time. No matter which gate is transferred from which gate, there is a 100-meter wide road that will maximize the efficiency of the troops."

Everyone opened their mouths in amazement, yes... the road is a hundred meters wide, and many soldiers can quickly pass this road to help.

Seeing that no one asked a question, I felt a little disappointed, so I had to say honestly: "These auxiliary stores have a great role in combat. They can subsidize the needs of soldiers on the city wall, repair weapons and equipment for them, and provide them with medicines. Basically, all needs can be met here."

I hesitated for a moment and continued, "And for those brothers who go out to practice, it is also very convenient to open shops here so that they don't have to travel that far, go to the city center to buy the medicine they need, and don't have to go there to repair weapons and equipment."

After hearing my explanation, everyone finally realized that... it seems that this has no effect, but in fact it is incalculable. They finally know the difference between themselves and me, but... In this way, where are the industrial and commercial areas built? At least half of the space can accommodate these two areas.

Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, I slowly spoke out my plan, an unprecedented, super huge plan...
Chapter completed!
