22. To move mountains and unload mountains, only civil engineering

It is said that at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, people from all over the country rose up and formed two rebel armies, the "Green Forest" and the "Red Eyebrow", which shocked the government and the public, and heroes from all over the country...

Uh, sorry, I got the wrong script.

*Exchange books*

Since ancient times, pioneers among mortals have bravely ventured into areas unreached by their predecessors with various purposes.

Desert, swamp, grassland, mountains, rainforest, polar regions.

No matter how much the environment changes, ordinary people who are full of subjective initiative can always use various means to transform the environment and survive.

Tools, clusters, and abstract intelligence allow mortals to eventually win over other animals and become world hegemons.

Civil engineering, as a unique skill with a long history, is a summary of experience that mortals use to transform the objective world.

Engaging in civil engineering is not just as simple as building a house.

Building roads and bridges, burying pipes for maintenance, digging holes to move rivers, and damming lakes and reclamation.

Change the world,

A century-old legacy.

And as the famous literary critic Mr. Shuren Zhou said:

“To move mountains and unload mountains, only civil engineering is needed!”

...

On a sunny afternoon, a team of about 120 people moved forward in a certain direction in the deep forest on the island.

Along the way, soldiers kept taking out red-dyed hemp ropes from their backpacks and looping them around the thick tree trunks, leaving conspicuous marks.

Finally, after trekking for more than half an hour, the team finally walked out of the deep forest and came to a lake.

In the southeast corner of the lake, there is a very conspicuous hill.

On the top of the hill, there is a dead tree about three people thick. The heart of the tree seems to be hollow, and the tree hole is dark, as if it wants to choose people to eat.

"Sir, it's right here! It's right down there!" Binxi's eyes were ferocious and she shouted with uncontrollable emotion.

The tall cloaked man gave some instructions to the guard Hammer.

The latter immediately arranged some manpower in the team, returned immediately, contacted the castle, and performed logistical connection tasks.

Binxi looked at the cloaked man and asked excitedly: "Lord Axelarat! When are we going to rescue people? I'm afraid that the time will drag on for a long time. The young master and my brother..."

The devil's red eyes glanced at Binsi coldly through the brass mask.

"Quiet! Listen to my command."

The short Binsi wisely chose to keep her mouth shut.

After quickly counting the number of people, Li Jiasu began his operation.

Civilians don't talk nonsense,

Making a list is the most concise and efficient way.

//(Soldiers are also responsible for guarding workers from escaping)

1. The laborers and soldiers, a total of 40 people (the number just informed by the escort Hamer), immediately marched back to the castle.

1.1 The captain of the soldier team contacted Chu Yang, and Chu Yang and the housekeeper took on-site command and arranged for 100 people to be recruited for corvee service outside the castle, to assist the 40 workers and soldiers returning, and to prepare for the transfer of equipment, cattle, horses, and logistics supplies.

1.2 Under the leadership of soldiers who are relatively familiar with the internal routes of the deep forest, the corvee leaders and laborers worked together in batches to transport equipment, cattle, horses, and logistics supplies.

1.2.1 Equipment: hand tricycle, trolley, shovel, saw, basket, sack, zipline suit, prefabricated wooden board, safety helmet and labor protection gloves (Pin Xixi version), torch, fuel.

Cows and horses: 10 ponies and 3 bulls.

Logistics materials: skip.

1.3 These 140 manpower will transport all items to the target location as soon as possible while ensuring safety and not getting lost.

At the same time, the castle maintains a certain frequency of contact with the relevant resource parties in Gusi City, and is ready to adjust tomorrow's resource ordering/recruitment amount at any time based on the new information brought back by the messenger soldiers.

1.4 On the Linzhong Lake side, Li Jia Shu commanded 20 soldiers and laborers to camp at the selected location, install tents, and erect wooden spike fences to protect against wild beasts.

1.5 Instruct the other 60 soldiers and laborers to select the nearest big tree and immediately start cutting down the trees with axes within a safe range (adjacent to the lakeside open space and deep forest).

1.5.1 After the first batch of transfer equipment and supplies and support personnel arrived, the 60 soldiers and workers began to process the newly felled logs.

The workers have mastered the wood processing skills after studying and training during the previous month of [building houses].

1.5.2 As the subsequent batches of personnel arrived, under the command of Guard Hamo, all equipment, cattle, horses, and logistics supplies were classified and stacked in the open space circle marked by the cloaked man.

As a professional civil engineering devil, Li Jia Shu has rich experience in the reasonable utilization of site space.

1.6 After completing their task, the 20 soldiers and laborers who had previously set up tents, according to Li Jia Shu's command, climbed to the hill. With great effort, they spent an hour cutting off the entire dead tree from the root to the trunk.

Throw it into open space.

1.7 While others were busy, Li Jia Shu, holding a strange-shaped hollow iron rod, was exploring the shallow soil around the hills and in many corners of the forest lake here.

That strange-shaped hollow iron rod was forged by Li Jia Shu in a hurry last night by the castle blacksmith. It was called the "Luoyang shovel" in Seris.

The Luoyang shovel is not a special tool for archaeologists. It is also of great use to civil workers.

The technological version of the Luoyang shovel in the electrical age has played an important role in the fields of construction, highways, railways, mine site selection and other fields. Especially in the fields of foundation pile filling and geological exploration, the technological Luoyang shovel is a must-have mechanical equipment.

Of course, the original version of the Luoyang shovel in Li Jiasu's hand was not very powerful and was only used to explore soil conditions at a depth of 0.5 to 3 meters underground.

1.8 Finally, while others were still busy working, Li Jiasu sat in the tent, took out a piece of parchment, and wrote and drew on it, frowning.

...

In the evening, the sun sets.

Binsi sat on a stool with a numb face.

It's not that he was sad and numb because the cloaked man didn't immediately go down to the ruins to save people.

It was because he was shocked to the point of numbness by the entire team, no, to be precise, by the commanding ability of the cloaked man.

From arriving at Linzhong Lake to sunset, it took more than 5 hours in total.

In front of us, the camp with about 220 people, tents, bonfires, wood piles, material equipment piles, and peripheral security wooden fences all looked very orderly.

And the distance control and position arrangement between these things vaguely give people a feeling of "high-efficiency interaction".

The 100 free people of Gus City who were drafted for corvee service were eating bacon jerky and wheat paste in their respective tents, making a little noise. However, under the supervision of the soldiers, they honestly did not move around.

And it took only ten minutes for the more than 80 slaves to finish their dinner. Then they threw the wooden bowls into the bucket one by one in an extremely orderly manner. Then they went to the equipment pile and each of them took a brass helmet? What the hell?

Oh, the local lord actually issued metal helmets to the slaves?!

The Sleifs quietly and skillfully put on their brass helmets and protective gloves, and sat down in five rows on the grass in front of the devil.

Orders and prohibitions are enforced, and order is maintained.

They are all disciplined by the devil.

Binsi thought to himself: "It's amazing. The discipline of the slaves is as good as that of the Praetorian Guards in the capital of the kingdom."

The setting sun completely disappeared into the shade of the mountain.

The soldiers lit torches and illuminated the lakeside camp.

In the cold moonlight,

and the warm light of fire,

Under the illumination of the two, Li Jiasu raised the brass loudspeaker in his hand, put it to his mouth, and said in a deep voice:

"The wind is blowing, the clouds are flying, and the workers are safe and traveling everywhere!"

The devil paused,

"Thank you for your hard work this afternoon, everyone."

"In the next 24 hours, you will work even harder!"

"But don't forget it."

"I, Axelaret of the Nine Hells, do what I say!"

"As long as you can successfully complete the tasks assigned by the Lord and I, all subsequent rewards will be honored to you!"

“To move mountains and unload mountains, only civil engineering can be done.”

"My workers..."

Li Jiasu took a deep breath, then raised his trumpet and loudly said:

"Let's dig!"
