As he spoke, Wang Chong suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Although they had been busy before, or fighting bloody battles with the Huns, Wang Chong was very sure that at least a month ago, Liu Deng and the others must not have started.
"I want to build a city in a month. How is this possible?" Even a rammed earth city couldn't be built so fast.
"Don't mention that this is within the territory of the Huns, and there are hundreds of thousands of Huns troops surrounding it.
Even if this was the hinterland of the Han Dynasty, they couldn't have built it so fast, right?
"That's right, according to the time originally estimated by my king, the four city walls should be almost complete by now! As for the buildings in the city, as long as the city walls are there, they can be built slowly!"
Hearing what Long Xiao said, Wang Chong felt that he was not feeling well.
How big a fucking city did you build? Could it be a village with a radius of dozens of steps?
"Let me ask, how big does your king expect this city to be? Is it five hundred paces?"
"General, you are kidding. Isn't it just a stronghold at 500 steps? This is the territory of the Huns after all. What my king means is that building a city of only five miles is enough!"
When Long Xiao said this, the confidence that filled his body really made Wang Chong tremble all over.
"This is impossible! Even if it is a small city with a radius of five miles, it will take at least a year to build only four walls!"
No matter how you say it, Wang Chong has a family background. His father and grandfather are both famous generals in Great Qin.
Especially his grandfather Wang Jian, who was a famous general who helped Qin Shihuang unify the six countries, and he was no less impressive when placed next to the God of Death Bai Qi!
Wang Jian conquered countless cities and territories throughout his life. Of course, he knew very well how long it took to build a city.
"If the general doesn't believe it, how about we join forces and fight back? The weather has been quite sunny recently. I think it should be almost the same at my king's side at this time!"
Long Xiao rolled his eyes, then said with a smile.
"I said Lieutenant Long, are you trying to trick me into the situation?"
Wang Chong immediately frowned.
"Hahahaha, General Wang is really too worried. I think we can make a gentleman's agreement. If after we fight back, this city has not been built, the general will not have to see my king again. I, Long Xiao, am willing to send my subordinates All the equipment of the three thousand soldiers will be given to the general!"
"You have to think clearly, the equipment of three thousand soldiers is not a small sum of money. Without these equipment, I am afraid you will be dead after you go back!"
Since Long Xiao and the others entered the valley, Wang Chong has been looking at the equipment on Long Xiao. These things are indeed very tempting to Wang Chong and the others.
After all, Long Xiao¡¯s body is made entirely of iron armor. These improved plate armors are lighter in weight, have stronger defense, and do not affect movement at all.
Although Cai Xin doesn¡¯t understand what ergonomics is at all, he understands what comfort is!
After all, this thing is for human use. After Liu Deng gave him a general concept, he tried it several times himself and immediately understood what was going on.
So, there is the ever-improving plate armor!
The plate armor produced throughout the country has gradually changed from being crudely made to being finely crafted.
After all, the entire Dai Kingdom has limited troops, and the life of every soldier is a vital asset to Liu Deng.
Money can be earned again if it is gone, and for Liu Deng, money is actually just a series of numbers, but human life is different!
When a person dies, nothing is lost. It takes at least eighteen years for a soldier to be able to set foot on the battlefield from birth.
And during this period, you have to go through long-term training. Only those who have actually been on the battlefield, experienced several battles, and survived a pile of dead people can be a qualified soldier!
But in this day and age, especially before Liu Deng appeared, on the battlefield with the Huns, injured Han soldiers rarely survived!
It¡¯s not because of anything else, it¡¯s just because the Huns¡¯ riding and shooting abilities are so strong.
They have lived on horses since they were young, and riding horses and archery are almost the most common things they do in their lives.
Moreover, before the war, the Huns would consciously contaminate their arrows with some bodily fluids on the corpses of rotting cattle and sheep.
In this era without sulfa and penicillin, as long as the wound becomes inflamed, it is definitely a fatal situation.
An excellent set of armor can definitely greatly improve the survivability of soldiers.
Especially Wang Chong and the others are like this now. They have no backup and no base of their own. They can only rely on themselves for everything. If they have thousands more sets of armor at once, their combat capabilities will be greatly enhanced.
"General, don't worry, I can still do this! But we have agreed that if this city has been built, general, please go back with me and see my king!"
"Why do you bother so much? So what if I meet him? After all, I am a descendant of the Qin Army"
As Wang Chong spoke, he suddenly laughed bitterly.
¡°General, my king has one more sentence that is inconvenient to put on paper. Please let me convey it to the general!¡±
Seeing that Wang Chong still had a look of hesitation on his face, Long Xiao gritted his teeth and prepared to release his last piece of information.
"If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Wang Chong raised his eyes and looked at Long Xiao, and said calmly.
"My king said that if the general is really unwilling to surrender to the Han Dynasty, my king is willing to try to send the general and his soldiers to the South Vietnamese King Zhao Tuo!"
This was the last piece of information Liu Deng had prepared for him. If Wang Chong could not be moved by this condition, then Liu Deng would have no choice but to give up.
"Is this true?"
As expected, Wang Chong suddenly became excited.
Not only Wang Chong, but also the soldiers behind him immediately surrounded him.
¡°If there is any place in the world that they want to go to day and night, it is only Zhao Tuo¡¯s place in South Vietnam
At that time, 500,000 Qin troops marched south to Lingnan. In order to completely pacify Lingnan, the First Emperor ordered that the Qin soldiers who marched south should get married and have children there.
Even after the collapse of the Qin Dynasty, they were still strictly ordered not to return to the Central Plains. Later, when the Han Dynasty was established, Zhao Tuo, the general of the Qin army who went south, established himself as king, and his country was named Nanyue.
For Wang Chong and the others, this may be their last piece of pure land in this world.
If they must choose to leave this ghostly place called Yinshan, Nanyue Country will also be their last destination
¡°This is what my king said personally, but I don¡¯t know if the general is willing to meet with my king!¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
