Daqin Engineering Corps

Chen Wei explained:

"What Master Zuo said just now is reasonable. It would take two days to build the bridge in the usual way."

"But if I find some small boats to come to the river and build several piers at the same time, it will save a lot of time."

"As long as there are enough people, it can be built overnight!"

……

Shen Bing couldn't help frowning, and objected:

"General, miser."

"Although the Yan army is resting a few miles away, they will definitely leave spies on the other side to monitor."

"If I were to drive a boat and drive piles in the river..."

Needless to say next.

Enemies are everywhere on the other side of the river, even if they are on the run, even if they are resting a few miles away, but the natural danger of the river will not know how to take advantage of it?

If Qin Jun builds a bridge, won't he not interfere?

The ability to deal with the Qin army's engineering soldiers is still there, right?

Even if you think about your own life, you should fight back and fight for a while!

Therefore, if the Qin army slowly builds a bridge from one side of the river to the other side, it will be fine, and the Yan army on the other side will have nothing to do with you.

But if you drive a boat to the river to drive piles, you even want to go directly to the opposite bank to build...

Unless Yan Jun is deaf or blind, he will let you play like this!

Chen Kui interrupted Shen Bing's words with a "hum", then bowed to Yang Duanhe and said:

"General Mingjian!"

"This is a battlefield, and danger is everywhere."

"Building bridges is the responsibility of the subordinates, and the subordinates are willing to lead their troops to risk their lives to build bridges."

"What's more, Yan's army is like a frightened bird, how dare to prevent our army from building a bridge?"

What he said was neither humble nor overbearing, and even somewhat heroic, and he immediately threw Shen Bing into a corner where he was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Yang Duanhe hesitated for a while, then asked Chen Kui:

"Can you really build the wooden bridge before dawn?"

Chen Kui replied firmly:

"really!"

Shen Bing and Hui looked at each other, and in their hearts, ten thousand grass-mud horses roared by.

This is what Chen Kui said nicely. What does it mean to "lead by example and risk death to build a bridge"?

At that time, he can "risk his death" on this side of the river, but send the gunners and craftsmen to the other side of the river to risk his death...

Even if you don't get to the other side of the river, you can't drive a boat in the river to drive pilings. How can the Yan army survive if a random batch of arrows rains over?

Of course Yang Duanhe didn't care about these details, so he nodded and agreed immediately:

"Since that's the case, let's start building it now!"

Chen Kui responded, then proudly raised his head towards Shen Bing and the others, and at the same time, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Seeing this secret voice, Xi whispered to Shen Bing as he left:

"Master, the miser has always been jealous of your talent."

"I'm afraid this trip will avenge my personal revenge and send artillery divisions to dangerous places..."

Shen Bing raised his hand to stop Hui from continuing:

"I make my own claims."

Although Hui's mouth responded, but his eyes were full of worry.

As a result, things turned out to be just as what Wei had worried about. The two of Shen Bing had just returned to the artillery division, and Chen Wei's order came down immediately:

"Hundred artillerymen, swim to the other side to build a bridge!"

When it was over, Chen Kui said hypocritically to Shen Bing:

"Master, this bridge is very important and must not be sloppy."

"As for safety..."

"Just now I discussed with the general, he will send a team of soldiers to swim across the river to defend the artillery guards."

"Engineer, let's go at ease!"

As he said that, Chen Wei laughed dryly a few times.

Just as he was about to step forward to make a move, he was stopped by Shen Bing.

Shen Bing bowed his hands to Chen Wei and said:

"Subordinates obey."

"But I'm afraid the gunner will cross the river later."

"The reason is that there are Yan troops everywhere on the other side, and we can't cut wood."

"Yes..."

Chen Wei also understood the explanation after that.

The gunner must cut the wood, and then transport all the wood to the other side so that there is no way to build a bridge on the other side.

This request was reasonable, and Chen Wei had no reason to refuse.

Of course, Chen Wei doesn't care, he just needs Shen Bing and artillery to build a bridge on the other side.

So he smiled smugly, pretending to be generous and replied:

"As it should be."

"But the general asked me to wait until dawn to finish the work."

"Engineers, don't delay the construction schedule and spoil the big event!"

Shen Bing cupped his hands and replied:

"Don't worry, miser, I won't miss the deadline."

Chen Kui responded "That's very good" and left with a big laugh.

All the gunners were filled with righteous indignation.

Cang rushed up immediately and said:

"Senior brother, this guy clearly wants to take this opportunity to kill the artillery master, why do you still agree?"

"Why don't I tell the general to let the general uphold justice?"

Shen Bing knew what Cang meant.

Although what Cang said was "Why don't I tell the general", he actually hoped that Shen Bing would file a private complaint.

With the friendship between Shen Bing and Yang Duanhe, it is not a problem to change the artillery division to a safe task or even not to participate in the bridge building.

But Shen Bing is unwilling to do this, he prefers to solve it by himself rather than relying on others.

Ko leaned over and said in a low voice:

"Master, I'm going to die anyway, why don't you let me find a chance to give this guy..."

As he spoke, he secretly made a slaughter gesture.

"If the nurses and gunners are thorough, then death is worth it."

Shen Bing shook his head and smiled, what is this all about?Such a small thing seems like the end of the world.

Shen Bing waved to the panicked craftsmen to signal them to calm down:

"If you can trust Shen Bing, listen to me."

"All you need to do is follow Shen Bing's orders. Shen Bing will keep you safe and complete the mission."

"how?"

The craftsmen couldn't help but look at each other when they heard the words.

This is crossing the river to build a bridge on the other side, so how can it be possible to complete the task and get away unscathed?

They would believe it if there were still a few people alive after completing the task, but everyone was "all right"?

Isn't this the Arabian Nights?

But everyone hesitated for a while, and said one after another:

"I believe in the engineer."

"I will follow the orders of the engineer."

Even the timid Cang nodded to express his willingness to obey.

No way, who made Shen Bing complete almost impossible tasks time and time again?

Due to inertia, it is impossible to believe Shen Bing or not now.

Chapter 1 Eleven

Everything is going as normal.

Logging first... By the way, this ancient forest is still well protected.

Or it cannot be said that the forests are well protected, but that the population in ancient times was less and the pursuit of nature was far less than that of modern times, so forests are everywhere in patches.

But what is strange is that even though there are trees nearby, Shen Bing still took the artillery division upstream for more than two miles before ordering logging...

This is actually asking for trouble for yourself.

The logging location is too far away from the bridge construction point, so there is an extra process of hauling the timber down.

But the gunners and craftsmen didn't say anything. As soon as Shen Bing gave an order, they swung their axes and saws, and cut down a large pile of wood in a short while.

According to past practice, it is not difficult to transport these timbers across the river.

All you need to do is chop off the side branches of the wood, bundle a few of them into bundles and throw them into the river, and then be dragged by the hemp rope on the other side.

But this time the gunners did it differently.

Because Shen Bing gave the order:

"Tie all the wood into logs, horizontally and vertically, and then horizontally and vertically."

"It's all solid until you can ride it. Understand?"

The artisans responded in unison.

They only said that Shen Bing was delaying time.

But when I think about it, I feel wrong. How can I complete the task if I delay the time?

If you can't complete the task, you will inevitably be punished...

But the craftsmen were just thinking about it, and they still followed Shen Bing's order.

More than a hundred people worked together, and within an hour, more than [-] square logs were tied up.

Then they made some preparations according to Shen Bing's order.

Shen Bing's preparations were also strange. First, he put the logs under the logs and then stretched them forward to the river.

In addition, there are some things like door panels made of small logs tied together.

When the preparations were almost complete, there was movement at the position where the bridge was built downstream... one after another, fireballs and rockets shot up into the sky and came across the river, followed by a burst of flames and screams.

It turned out that Yan Jun had already prepared.

To be exact, Zhao Jun was prepared.
