Great time travel

Chapter 75. Forging the remains of the "Ausong Empire"
PS: Explain why it is not possible to make every traverser an elder, because the term elder has too strong a political connotation, and only 500 members of the Lingao family use it.Thousands of other traversers cannot be allowed to accommodate these 500 people.Secondly, the time-traveling forces in the Americas have been here for 11 years, and they have been seriously integrated with the natives of this time and space. The identities of the traversers and the natives are relatively vague. If the division is promoted rashly, it will artificially create a gap.

Therefore, the elders of Lingao were downgraded to citizens, just changing their nouns. Their property, power and founder status within the Lingao Group have not changed. They are still called chiefs, and they are still major shareholders. The general meeting of shareholders, the executive committee is renamed the board of directors.

And other traversers who are sporadically dressed alone are only called citizens and have a share of benefits, but do not enjoy shareholder privileges to show the difference.

For soldiers with the same military rank, there is a big difference between having a medal and not having a medal. For the same traveler citizens, there is also a big difference between having shares and not having shares.

In an off-road vehicle next to this hot desert construction site, Li Wei, who is the highest representative of the "Australian Travelers" and the "Supreme Advisor to the Preparatory Committee of the Australian Republic", is sitting in the passenger seat, holding a Holding a laptop, he introduced the construction situation to Wang Qiu.

"...Look, this is a certain design team that once planned the 'Imitation of Yin Ruins' theme park project in Henan. In the name of tourism development in the same location in Australia in the modern world, it secretly carried out survey and planning, and extensively consulted the local people. Based on the opinions of various traveler countries in time and space, and adding some Nanyang and Indian style elements, after several revisions, the final design of the ruins of the "Ausong Empire" lost capital "Song City"..."

Li Wei pointed to the design renderings on the LCD screen, and introduced to Wang Qiu enthusiastically, "...there is the Daxiangguo Temple in Australia Song Dynasty over there, and the Daxiong Palace is on the square platform. We are going to place a large stone statue Buddha……"

Following the direction he indicated with his hand, Wang Qiu narrowed his eyes and saw that the construction workers had poured cement into a square platform at that place, and then, an employee was holding a pile of stones that had been miniaturized with the [shrink lamp] in advance. , carefully placed on the concrete platform, spliced ​​into a Buddha statue, and then restored to its original shape, it became as high as a three-story building in no time!Under the scorching sun, the majestic giant Buddha looks quite majestic.Next, the construction workers placed a number of smaller Guanyin statues, Arhat statues, peacock Daming King statues, and even stone statues of Jigong, Monkey King and Zhu Bajie, as well as various statues in a certain order around the giant Buddha. All kinds of stone tables and chairs, stone lanterns, and broken stone pillars were randomly destroyed with a small amount of mine explosives, and some broken bricks and tiles were deliberately thrown around.

Wang Qiu, on the other hand, saw his eyebrows jumping in the off-road vehicle, "...what is this Daxiangguo Temple? A few statues were randomly placed on the foundation, and a pile of garbage was thrown...not to mention a decent house, There is not even a complete wall, so it can be regarded as a temple?"

"...This is normal! It's a ruin after all!" Li Wei replied disapprovingly, "...According to the historical background, the wooden temple structures were all burned in the flames of war during the collapse of the 'Australian-Song Empire' It's all gone, only the statue of Buddha carved in stone remains... In addition, at the gate, there is a stone archway of "Imperial Construction of Daxiangguo Temple", plus a few stone tablets with inscriptions, this is enough. "

Hearing this, Wang Qiu thought for a while, took out the binoculars and took a closer look, and found that a few holes had been reserved in advance on the corners of each concrete platform, pretending to be places for placing wooden pillars... and those construction workers, after finishing the work, They also deliberately piled firewood around the Buddha statue, doused it with gasoline, and set up a few raging bonfires to create the illusion that the temple was being burned by fire. It has to be admitted that the fake ancient city remains are quite detailed.

But then there is another question, "...But... where did you get so many Buddha statues of this size? Although Sanya has been using Doraemon's black technology props in recent days Produces various sculptures. But many of these Buddha statues don’t look like they are new, but look like they have been exposed to the sun and rain for a long time!” Pointing to a statue of Guanyin that is obviously pitted and full of traces of time , Wang Qiu asked a little puzzled, "...Could it be that the real ancient Buddha statues were moved to this desert to fake them!"

"...Just kidding, how could it be possible to throw real cultural relics into the desert? A few years ago, the domestic construction industry and tourism industry were overheated, and many Buddhist theme parks, Taoist theme parks, and Xianxia theme parks were built. Antique building theme park, there are many man-made scenic spots whose themes are not clear, they bloomed everywhere like the plague for a while, and did not conduct a market survey beforehand, no matter whether there are so many tourists nearby...the result is Later, many theme parks lost money year after year, couldn’t continue to operate, and finally turned into ruins overgrown with weeds..."

Li Wei replied very calmly, "...the central government just sent people to search those abandoned scenic spots, and got so many things. These statues were thrown around and left unattended before, so they look good. Where to go, even the whole statue is covered with grass! Hey, it's a pity that Doraemon's [shrinking lamp] can't be used in our "main plane", otherwise there will be a full 50 Migao’s illegal Buddha statue can be obtained from the top of a mountain in Guangdong - this Buddha statue just blocked the road of a highway, and it is currently preparing for blasting..."

"... No wonder you have been rushing through the gate of time and space these days, rushing to transport all kinds of messy things to the Sanya base, and pouring various reliefs and statues with cement on the spot in Sanya. I thought you were planning to use them in Sanya decorated the cityscape!"

The corner of Wang Qiu's mouth twitched, and at the same time, he saw more and more strange statues, erected or randomly discarded in every corner of this fake desert ruins. Scattered flowers, statues of ladies in ancient costumes, there are also Venus with broken arms that obviously do not conform to the era and civilization background, stone statues of cadres in tunic suits, bronze statues of teenagers holding torches (it seems to come from a demolished children's palace), The stone statue of Lu Xun, the statue of a muscular male athlete lifting a dumbbell... can be said to be varied and full of wonders.And all kinds of smaller pottery statues, bronze statues and stained glass crafts were also pulled over by carts and discarded randomly in various corners of this "unfinished ruins".

Next, the things left by the construction team on this fake ruins became more and more strange, and even some large clay figures of ancient costume characters in Japanese anime were dragged into the desert. .When Wang Qiu saw a portrait of Lenin wearing a coat and waving his hands, which was erected on the large square in front of the "Ausong Palace Ruins", he finally couldn't help but began to complain about Li Wei again.

"...Hey, Buddha, Confucius and fairies, you can still be related to the Song Dynasty adherents. But what are these statues that you got later? Lu Xun? Lenin? Athlete? Young Pioneers? Mechanic? This What kind of mind-opening wonder is it?"

"...So this is the Ausong Dynasty and not the Southern Song Dynasty, Comrade Xiao Wang!" Li Wei taught Wang Qiu proudly, "...the Ausong Dynasty in our setting is not a Southern Song Dynasty. A miniature replica, but an advanced country that has completed the industrial revolution, a post-AD Atlantis, naturally cannot be the same as the Southern Song Dynasty in all aspects, but must have a gradual development process...at least in the Australian Song Dynasty At the end of the empire, the daily life of the residents should be almost the same as those transmigration groups currently entrenched in Hainan Island, Vladivostok, North America and South America. Therefore, the site of the "Song City" we created in Australia must have The characteristics of traditional Chinese civilization, to show that we will not forget the roots of China, but also have an atmosphere of industrialization and modernization, so as to be compatible with the daily styles of those time-traveling groups."

He concluded in this way that it sounded reasonable, but the new statue that appeared on the construction site at the next moment made Wang Qiu stunned again, "...I said...even if it has an industrial style , It’s almost enough to get some statues of workers, peasants, soldiers and young pioneers! But what’s the matter with the concrete Transformers over there? It’s straight into a sci-fi style! It looks like...it’s not Megatron Bar?"

"...Ah, there is the King Kong Temple under planning. In order to reflect the 'Australian Song Dynasty style', I just got a few Transformers statues, so I just pulled them over and used them." Li Wei said awkwardly, "... ...A Transformer is a King Kong anyway..."

... This is really... how unbelievable - is the King Kong Temple used to worship Transformers?

——Imagine a group of ordinary people wearing ancient costumes from the Song Dynasty kneeling down at the feet of Transformer Megatron and burning incense to pray devoutly. The nerves in the temples are twitching...

Of course, in the ruins of a city, it is impossible to only have all kinds of statues and small handicrafts-that would really become the ruins of a theme park.Therefore, the main task of the construction team or the counterfeiting team is to build the city itself.

Due to the heavy workload of building a city wall, according to the planning of the design drawings, this "Song City" site has no city walls, and the urban area is directly scattered on both sides of the dry river bed.In order to make the camouflage more realistic, the construction workers also used Doraemon's magical props [Mole Gloves] to dig a lot of trenches and artificial rivers on both sides of the river bed as the source of domestic water and sewage discharge channels for "Song City". , and even deliberately threw a few broken boats into the artificial river—although the place is so dry that you can’t see a drop of water, except for the hot sand, it’s still hot sand.

Next, in the vast urban area, build a room of "remains and ruined walls". This is a very hard and repetitive work. It is completely unnecessary.

Then, one after another small pickup trucks shuttled back and forth in the desert, collecting antique pottery pots, furniture, baskets, Baskets, bowls and chopsticks, rags, writing brushes, etc., were scattered among the ruins of various houses (although these houses were never complete), and on the streets between the ruins of houses, and many pieces of broken porcelain were also scattered In the house, to show the Chinese characteristics of this place.Even fresh garbage such as leftover fish bones and kangaroo bones were collected from the vicinity of the "COSCO Star" survivor camp in Darwin Port, and were thrown in various corners of the site in a mess for the sake of vividness.

In addition to private houses, in order to show the industrialization level of the "Australian Song Empire", various abandoned factories scattered in the suburbs are also an important project for the construction of the "Song City" site. Huamei, Lingao and Dongan Republic all provided theirs. Waste machinery.After everyone deliberately smashed them to pieces and scattered the obtained parts in the "factory" that was mostly collapsed (in fact, it was not covered), the abandoned factory became much more realistic.

Compared with the "houses" and "factories" mentioned above, the palaces and court ministries of the "Australian Song Empire" are more important. This is also the most costly place in the entire relic project.Even if it is just a foundation, there are all kinds of extremely complicated and particular about the layout, and there must be exquisite patterns on those steps, stone piers and tiles—fortunately, only a few temples need to be built, most of them It is only necessary to arrange a few broken walls and broken walls for a little bit of meaning, otherwise the amount of work will be overwhelming even with Doraemon's black technology props.

On the few walls that have been built, several experts sent by the central government who are responsible for publicity, under the scorching sun in the desert, used various colors of paint and obvious mix-and-match styles to draw concise and vivid murals , records the origin, birth, development and growth of the non-existent country "Australian Song Empire" - there are war scenes reflecting the Yashan naval battle and the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty; The "ancestors" struggled in Australia and struggled to reclaim wasteland and build cities...the murals of various modern symbols such as steamships, trains, airplanes, and airships were mixed with modern army combat scenes using rifles and artillery.

In addition to the murals, there are also many pre-made exquisite relief panels, which were also transported into this fake palace and placed on a slightly empty foundation.Next, the construction workers took out many fake antiques that seemed to be found in modern street stalls, ranging from snuff bottles, copper coins, copper paperweights to porcelain vases, and placed them in various parts of the palace, pretending to be royal luxury goods... In the end, the construction team buried explosives inside and outside the outline of the palace they had just worked so hard to build, piled up firewood, and poured gasoline on it. Finally, amid deafening explosions and flames, the "Ausong Palace" was destroyed. Engulfed by flames, smoke, and splashes of gravel and gravel—just like the urchin who spends hours carefully building a castle on the beach by the sea, when he is about to leave the beach to go home, he kicks the sand castle to collapse. , to satisfy his desire for destruction.

In addition, in the arid wilderness far away from the "urban area", the construction team also sporadically built several mausoleums of the "Emperors of Australia and Song Dynasty".

Of course, as the capital of an ancient country, there are only civilian houses and palaces, but no military camps and weapons, which is also very outrageous.So the construction team built the ruins of military camps, fortresses, and arsenals, and even the cement docks of the military port, some distance away from the "urban area".

As for the source of the required weapons, before, the Vladivostok Far East Company’s modern army swept across the rear of Japan, North Korea, and the Jurchens, and seized a large number of crude and cold weapons such as samurai swords, iron forks, and spears that were basically useless.The Fubo Army and the Funing Army of the Lingao Group also raided the Tuweizi of the landlords and gentry in southern Fujian and the Pearl River Delta, as well as the forts of the Ming Army Guards, and seized a lot of earthen cannons and Ming Dynasty weapons. Shotguns and firecrackers, as well as various swords, bows and spears, as well as slingshots that seem to be used by children, plus a few broken and rusted semi-scrapped armor with a long history.

Originally, the leaders of the Lingao and Vladivostok crossing groups planned to recast these unused trophies and recycle the copper and iron inside. Unfortunately, most of these iron materials are of poor quality and contain various impurities. It is very troublesome to recast and refine, and there has not been much remelting until now.Now it is time to use these remaining useless weapons again, find someone to pick out those without inscriptions, throw them in a mess on the artificial ruins, or place them in the artillery emplacements of the fortress, and then use **** Fry them all together...

However, the number of abandoned weapons that the two time-traveling groups can provide is still obviously insufficient compared with the scale of the ruins, so the personnel of the relevant departments had to sweep up the ancient props companies in the modern world and collected many antique weapons for filming. They threw them all on the Australian wilderness here, and deliberately cut off many spear shafts, cut off the blades, and pointed the muzzle at the palace, so as to create the illusion of a civil war, so as to attack those who didn't know what to do. Visitors from foreign countries hinted at the final outcome of this "Australian-Song Empire".

Finally, while the city ruins are well built, it's impossible for a lost city to be devoid of corpses and burials.So the Lingao Travelers Group had no choice but to search around Hainan Island under the request of the central government and the resolution of the Huameng, and finally found several mass graves where the poor, refugees, and death row prisoners were buried.Then he pinched his nose and dug out these rotten bones and dragged them to the construction site to pretend to be dead citizens.

Although the above-mentioned fraudulent behavior is still a bit blunt, it is easy for shrewd people to see the flaws. Fortunately, the almighty nature will help cover up all abnormal traces. The weather environment in the desert area near Darwin Port is very harsh, with sandstorms, tropical storms, thunderstorms and Tornadoes are commonplace, as long as they are destroyed by tornadoes and tropical storms a few times, and some places are buried by sandstorms, it is probably enough to distinguish the real ones from the real ones.

All in all, with the technical content of the ruins of the "Song City", it is estimated that archaeologists will not be able to hide it hundreds of years later, but Huameng has no such extravagant hope-but only hopes that it will be discovered in decades or even ten years. In China, the Westerners who ruled the world's oceans were fooled, and they believed in the ruins of the "Old Capital of the Ausong Empire" located on the seaside desert: it is conceivable that when the Dutch and other European navigators learned of this " After swarming to the location of the Lost City, there will inevitably be a wonderful scene of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Tomb Raider" interspersed with all kinds of loyalty and betrayal, conspiracy and bravery. The tragicomedy of drama... eh?Why does it feel a bit like playing a monkey?
But in any case, as long as the above-mentioned scene can be realized, the purpose of forging the ruins of "Song City" in the Australian desert will be fully achieved.
