From a distance, sharp wooden spikes stand upright at both ends, and the number of chevaux de frise is so large that it is impossible to see the end.
Shi Le, Wei Mingyuan's deputy general, naturally followed the general. Seeing this, he asked in confusion, "If you can make so many chevaux de frise, why don't you build a high wall to keep out the monsters?"
“Because Zhongshan has thin land and many mountains, there are no good farms and no people living outside, so the county town has strong defensive capabilities.”

It's already available, why wouldn't they use it?
