Time Traveling: I Engaged in City Defense in Ancient Times

A general big city has four gates, but Yingdu, the capital of Jokhang, has nine gates in total, mainly composed of city walls and gate towers.At this time, the gatehouses were still square with right angles. Ji Cheng suggested changing the square shape into a curved semicircle. Such a shape is not conducive to climbing and hiding.

The city wall of Yingdu is thicker than that of Yuzhou City. He pointed to the blueprint and said, "There is no way to defend the city. You can rely on it. I will compare it with the blueprint of the city defense that my elder brother brought. I drew another copy, and it is completely possible to add a layer of urn city here."

"What is Wengcheng?" Guo Xiaofeng asked.

"The Wengcheng is outside the main city wall, and a small city wall building is added to resist the first wave of attacks." Ji Cheng scratched his fingertips again, and said on the open space near the official road: "You can add some antlers here. And ground bag."

"Take a five-foot-long wooden stake and bury it in the ground, leaving two feet long on the ground, and then connect it with hemp rope"

At some point, Guo Lin had already put down the teacup in his hand, listening intently to every word of Ji Cheng.

He has been in the army for more than 20 years, and he has never seen such a form of city defense.

Ji Cheng said again: "Here, this area can dig a deep pit of five or six feet four feet square, and fill it with sharpened bamboos. You can also bury mines, and spread wood and grass on top to confuse the people. vision"

He smiled slyly and said: "If there are a large number of enemy troops attacking, and encountering such a defense, he will lose three points before the security at the foot of the city wall."

If thousands of troops came galloping, who would pay attention to the pits and hemp ropes on the ground.This kind of defense method can be used in the whole territory of Dazhao, and Guo Lin's blood boils just by imagining it.

None of Dazhao's neighbors are honest, with such a defense.Even the menacing onslaught of the Qiang people last year can save a lot of troops and wait for reinforcements.

"Go on! Go on!" The more Guo Xiaofeng looked at Ji Cheng now, the more he felt that he was a treasure. He had been a guard for many years and he had never heard of it, and the city defense could do so many tricks.

"The height in the watchtower city is enough, but in fact, we can add some more. If we advance five miles, we can give an early warning if there is any enemy situation." Due to his illness, Ji Cheng only wore cotton clothes, and his tone was calm and confident.

Guo Lin couldn't help but take a few more glances.Although this boy was born in a farming family, he has good courage and insight, and he is barely a good match for the eldest son of Marquis Wenyuan's mansion.

"Also, the giant crossbows defending the city are now single-shot. Although the range is long enough and the lethality is strong, if it is changed to double shots, wouldn't the effect be doubled?" Ji Cheng took out a few blueprints from the bottom of the table and said. : "I only sketched it roughly, and I don't know if it will work."

The giant crossbows can be changed to double shots, so can't the small crossbows be changed to single shots or bursts?Guo Xiaofeng suddenly stood up, grabbed the blueprint, and stared at the blueprint more carefully than his own son.

Guo Lin cursed inwardly, what the hell are you robbing, while signaling to Ji Cheng with his eyes that he, the father-in-law, should keep a copy of this thing.

"This is an earthen racket. It uses beef tendon as an attack. It is heavy when tied to a huge stone and a huge tree," Ji Cheng said. "It's just a big thick bow. The weight of the boulder and the rebound of the beef tendon can double the attack."

If this thing hits, the person who was alive one second will be patted into a meatloaf in the next second.

He coughed and hooked his fingers, and Ji Cheng honestly put the drawing into his hand.An old father-in-law has to have the posture of an elder. It is not the style of a general to grab something good when he sees it.

Ji Cheng's case table not only contained new city defense plans and design drawings, but also clearly listed stone attack, earth attack, fire attack, attack methods, and the deployment of soldiers and horses.

In Guo Lin's opinion, the straw paper on this table is worth tens of thousands of soldiers.

Before Ji Cheng made a landmine, it was enough to surprise him, but he did not expect this person to be so talented in military affairs.

"Xiao Feng, first draw up a draft for His Royal Highness King Qi," Guo Lin pretended to drink tea and blurted out: "You... when do you plan to hire?".

If it weren't for the vicious and smoldering governor of Jingzhao, a young man with such a good head would have called him father a long time ago.He wanted to marry his brother, but he had to take the initiative to mention it, Guo Lin felt awkward for a while.

"Lin You is the royal family now, and I want to give him what others can give, and I don't want him to feel wronged at all," Ji Cheng said sternly to the future father-in-law.

All the money in his hand was invested in bath soup. If he was just a pauper in Dayan Village, he at least had a house, but now he doesn't even have a rain tile.

"Waiting for you?" Guo Lin gave Ji Cheng a sideways glance and said with disgust: "The fourth generation and third son of the Guo family, Prince Su is the uncle of the emperor. When you save enough dowry, how long will you have to wait? My Xiaoyou The black hair on my head will turn into white hair."

If it wasn't for his son, he would have slept with this guy a long time ago, so why should he be in a hurry?

Guo Xiao waved his fan coquettishly, and when he was watching a good show with relish, his posture was almost a handful of melon seeds.

"Hurry up, don't worry, Father-in-law," Ji Cheng said with a smile, "I want to buy a three-entry mansion in Dongcheng, at least a place where I can't wrong him."

Officials above the sixth rank in the capital will be equipped with official houses. He has visited that house, and it is no different from a modern courtyard. Even if it is for Lin You and him to live in the current small courtyard, it is better than living there.

"The threshold of our Marquis Mansion is almost broken by the marriage proposer," Guo Lin said with a snort, "You can figure it out yourself."

A bear who doesn't know what's good and what's wrong, their Hou's mansion and the palace are still short of a room for the two of them?When Lin You of his family falls in love with someone else, don't you think you're in a hurry.

Guo Xiaofeng joked with a smile on the side: "Ah Cheng, my younger brother likes you, hurry up, um...give me two nephews for fun."

"If you want to play with yourself, you will be born," Guo Lin said angrily, "My grandson, no matter what, you have to play with me first."

Ji Cheng: ...the co-author gave birth to a son for the two of them.

------

Ji Cheng lived in the Hou Mansion for half a month, but he didn't even touch his wife's clothes.Fearing that Lin You would be bored staying at home all day, Guo Lin took Xu Dashan's family over.

Since Lin You's arrival, the desolate scene in the Hou's mansion has changed. The weeds that grew wantonly in the yard have been pulled out, new fish have been added to the lake, and the pavilions and pavilions have been refurbished.

During the day, Lin You followed Xu Lian to tease Xiao Huzi. He wanted to get close to his husband, but he couldn't stand the crowd, and he didn't even have a chance to make a move.

Every night, as soon as he walked towards Lin You's room with one foot, Guo Lin would open the window and look at him indifferently.

He knew that Lin You had been thinking about his injury and was unwilling to get close to him, but he felt happy when he saw the young man, and he didn't have to do anything, he just wanted to stay together.

Ji Cheng scolded countless times in his heart, and sighed all day long, Xu Dashan really couldn't see it: "Can you stop sighing, those who don't know think something is wrong with you."

It's really a full man who doesn't know how hungry a man is hungry. He loves your wife and children every day, and Ji Cheng gave him an annoyed look.Continue to look at Lin You and Xu Lian not far away.

A sudden thought came to Xu Dashan's mind and said: "Brother Dashan..."

Every autumn, Fanxiang Mountain, ten miles away from the capital, is covered with red leaves, and the scenery is so beautiful.

With Xu Lian's family acting as a cover, the cheap father-in-law no longer found an excuse to stop him.After leaving the capital, he immediately pulled Lin You into his carriage: "Daughter-in-law, let's go."

"Brother Cheng, why don't you go with Brother Lian and the others?" He had already seen what this man was up to, he pursed his lips and smiled, two dimples screwed into Ji Cheng's heart.

Ji Cheng scratched his nose heavily angrily: "Ask what you know!"

He put a pillow on Lin You's waist, "Lean on this province's waist," he stretched out his long legs, put his head on Lin You's lap, and lay down.

The two carriages of Marquis Wenyuan's mansion walked towards Fanxiang Mountain one after the other.The little tiger in front was shouting excitedly inside, Xu Dashan and Xu Lian's eyes were full of smiles.

The one behind was so quiet that even the coachman couldn't hear it. If it wasn't for the occasional conversation, he would have thought the two masters inside had fallen asleep.

The thin white and slender hand held on the car window sometimes clasped the window sill tightly, and sometimes was dragged in by the other hand.

"Brother Cheng, whisper again," Lin You felt like a cooked shrimp, and he bowed all the way.At the place where he was usually eloquent, he was forced hard and urgently, so he could only put his hands on his fists to prevent himself from making any noise.

"Don't drink," Ji Cheng hugged him tightly and said, "I miss you."

I want to marry you in as soon as possible, and I want to be tired of being together all day long.

When he arrived at the foot of Fanxiang Mountain, Lin You was still covered in sweat and his cheeks were pink. He feigned anger and said, "How can I get out of the car like this?"

"Well... let's say you get motion sickness," Ji Cheng thought seriously.

...If anyone gets motion sickness, their lips will break!

Xiao Huzi, who had never been out before, saw everything novel, and was full of energy swinging his arms in Xu Lian's arms, intending to go into Lin You's arms.

"Little uncle is not feeling right now, let's go home and play with him, okay?" Xu Lian said with a smile.

It was that kind of smile with unknown meaning again, Lin You glanced angrily, and pretended not to hear the person at the side.
