Chapter 260 Discussing the construction of the Great Wall.



oh?

cement?

Can you help me?

Ying Zheng looked down at the paper that contained the method and steps for making cement.

Qi Pan said, "The raw materials for cement are limestone, clay, iron ore, etc."

"First, grind the limestone, clay, and iron ore into fine powder according to the proportions of..."

“And then…”

"Finally, it is mixed with sand, gravel, and bricks to form a solid mass. It can be used to build city walls, bridges, water conservancy projects, and highways."

“It’s not only waterproof and heat-insulating, but also has good adhesion and is strong.”

"Moreover, cement has excellent load-bearing and compressive resistance. It can bear the weight of the building itself and external loads, ensuring the stability of the building."

"This cement is widely used in the world I live in."

"Whether it's building bridges or roads, or constructing houses, cement is used in everything."

"Brother, with this cement, building the city wall will be very easy."

After Qi Pan finished speaking, Ying Zheng also finished reading the prescription in his hand.

He was very interested in the cement that Qi Pan mentioned.

"good!"

"I'll order someone to find what we need here."

"Find out all the raw materials for this cement."

After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he called a Black Ice Guard and told him all the raw materials for making cement.

Let him take people and quickly find all these things.

After the Black Ice Guard left, Qi Pan said, "Brother, the wall you built in history to defend against the Huns has a famous name."

oh?

Ying Zheng was a little curious: "What's the name?"

Pray: "The Great Wall, the Great Wall!"

"It is said that this Great Wall, with a total length of ten thousand miles, was an ancient military defense structure."

"Tall, solid, and continuous, it is used to restrict the movement of enemy cavalry."

"Moreover, the Great Wall is not just an isolated wall."

"It is a defensive system with the city wall as the main body, combined with a large number of cities, barriers, pavilions and flags."

"You built it, brother, specifically to defend against the invasion of the Xiongnu cavalry. Am I right?"

What Qi Pan said are all recorded in history.

This is exactly what Ying Zheng planned and designed.

He nodded, "The Imperial Master is right, it is indeed so."

"Now that our Great Qin has unified the six kingdoms, General Wang Jian, Meng Tian, Li Xin and others are heading south to attack the Baiyue."

"I believe it won't be long before we return victorious, and these Xiongnu..."

Ying Zheng frowned, "It's really hard to deal with."

The Xiongnu were a tribe on the grasslands.

He grew up on horseback.

Not to mention their riding and archery skills, their war horses alone are incomparable to those of the Qin Dynasty.

Not only their Great Qin, but even the other six countries were still there.

No country's war horses dare to say that they can compare with the Huns' war horses.

After all, they have different bloodlines, so it is very difficult to surpass them.

Qi Pan also thought of the Huns' war horses and their exceptionally tall and strong physiques.

She had seen wrestling matches held by ethnic groups on the grassland in short videos.

Each of them is tall and strong, as strong as a bull.

One of his arms is thicker than her leg.

If he hits her, I guarantee he'll kneel down and beg her not to die...

In modern times, the Huns are also one of them and one of their own.

But now the Huns......

Qi Pan believes that he does not have the ability to make them his own people.

The only way is to fight.

Beat them up and scare them.

Beat them into submission, and then conquer them.

Let them become part of the Qin Dynasty.

Turn the Huns' grasslands into the Qin Dynasty's racecourse.

But the premise of all this is that you have to be able to beat them.

The current Qin Dynasty does not have this strength yet.

We can only take precautions first.

Ungraceful development.

After domestic productivity recovers, living standards steadily improve, and the Qin military becomes stronger, we can then deal with the Huns.

Qi Pan said, "Since we can't deal with the Xiongnu yet, let's just leave them alone for now."

"Build strong fortifications and keep them out of the territory of our Great Qin."

"Brother, let's hurry up and build the Great Wall, so that the Xiongnu won't take advantage of our unpreparedness and attack and plunder our people."

Ying Zheng: "Okay, I think so too."

"National Master, look."

Ying Zheng brought Qi Pan to the imperial desk and opened a scroll.

It is a picture of public opinion.

Ying Zheng pointed his finger upwards and said, "Master, I plan to start building the Great Wall from here to here."

"And then..."

Qi Pan stood by and looked carefully at the place where Ying Zheng pointed.

"Okay, the gravel and stones needed to build the Great Wall can be extracted from here."

"The short distance can reduce manpower and material resources, and also save a lot of time."

Ying Zheng: "Yes, and then from here... to here, build all the way down..."

"Then we'll connect this place... to the Great Wall here..."

"The labor and workers needed can be collected from the people, and a certain amount of silver can be distributed and sufficient food can be provided."

"We can also send the prisoners in the prison to build the Great Wall and assign special guards."

"If one person escapes, everyone will be punished...it's okay..."
