Iron Dynasty

The golden sunlight covered the withered grass, and the hoarfrost in the morning indicated that another cold winter was coming soon.

Guduo and Kuha traveled day and night, and two days later, they saw the Scarlet Wolf Banner, which was the bronze tent of Chagatai, the leader of the banner.

In the Golden Horde system, only khans can live in golden tents, Taiji live in silver tents, and the flag heads of various tribes can only live in copper tents. According to the color of the account room, the status of the Golden Horde can be divided.

Looking at the bloody wolf riding in the camp, Kuha flogged and sat down on the horse and quickly walked towards the bronze tent of Chagatai.

Banner, please avenge me.

Entering the bronze tent, Kuha saw Chagatai sitting upright, and immediately knelt down and cried.

At this time, Guduo also came in. He glanced at the people in the house. These were the flag leaders of various tribes. He said, Master Flag Leader, the Keqing tribe and the Kuha tribe have all been slaughtered.

Chagatai's eyes were gloomy, and he said: The two of them also said that they encountered the army of the Great Yu Kingdom, and the tribe suffered heavy losses.

Is it really the army of the Great Yu Kingdom? Gu Duo's expression was gloomy.

They are wearing silver full-body armor, they can't be wrong. A flag leader said: They suddenly attacked our tribe while we were heading to Cangzhou City. If you are young, you will kill people when you see them, and if you kill them, you will burn the tribe, and they will not let go of our cattle, sheep and horses.”

Chagatai slapped the table angrily, and said, Why didn't you find them earlier? We prairie people have eagle-like eyes, so why can't we fight back now?

The three flag leaders bowed their heads, None of us thought that the army of the Great Yu Kingdom would enter the grasslands, so we didn't send scouts to patrol outside the tribe.

Hmph, you underestimate the enemy. Now you immediately notify all the tribes and send scouts to inspect the grasslands day and night. You must find me the cavalry of the Great Yu Kingdom. Chagatai said angrily.

Kuha's heart was full of hatred at this time, and he said: The head of the flag, please give me another two thousand elite soldiers, and I will definitely come back with their heads to see the head of the flag!

Chagatai nodded and said: You and Guduo go to the south to inspect, you two go to the east, you two go to the west, you must find them out, these untouchables of the Great Yu Kingdom dare to kill our Golden Horde Khanate. Noble people, we must make them pay.

I'll eat their meat. Kuha said frantically.

Chagatai stood up at this time, and immediately let the guards in front of him sound the horn, and the rumbling of horse hooves immediately came from the camp.

Ten thousand blood wolf cavalry assembled on the grassland.

After Chagatai allocated 2,000 people to Kuha, he also allocated some soldiers to other flag commanders, and took 5,000 people to the vast grassland.

At this time, they could no longer take care of Cangzhou City, because the cavalrymen of the Great Yu who had penetrated into the grasslands made them sleepless, so they had to send a large number of cavalry to search for them on the grasslands.

But even so, looking for the army of the Great Yu Kingdom in the vast grasslands is like looking for a needle in a haystack. At the same time, this kind of change was soon discovered by Lu Fei and Niu Ben.

Somewhere in the grassland, Lei Ming returned with the cavalry who went out to explore the path.

After dismounting, Lei Ming put away the binoculars and said to Lu Fei, who was trimming in front of a river: Captain, there are more and more scouts patrolling the barbarians. If this continues, we will be discovered soon.

At this time, another group of cavalrymen who explored the way came back and said, Captain, we found that there are two thousand barbarians coming from the north.

It has been more than half a month since they set out from Cangzhou City. The pair of people and horses slept in the open air.

Dozens of people have now been injured, which has severely slowed the march.

In the past two weeks, Lu Fei and his party have attacked three tribes successively, and now as these tribes have strengthened their vigilance, it is difficult for them to find another chance.

Immediately withdraw to Cangzhou City. Lu Fei pondered for a while.

They had a strict plan to enter the grassland this time. When they set off, Xiao Ming said that once the barbarians started to round up them, they would withdraw immediately.

After all, their purpose this time is to harass and gain time for the construction of Cangzhou City's city walls, and they cannot afford to fight.

Go back now? Lei Ming was a little unwilling.

Lu Fei nodded and said firmly, Your Highness's order cannot be disobeyed, have you forgotten what His Highness said? The enemy advances and I retreat, go!

Having said that, Lu Fei mounted his horse and led the soldiers towards Cangzhou City with the robbed horses.

At the same time, Niu Ben also chose to retreat to Cangzhou City. From his experience, if he continued to go further alone, he would only be surrounded and annihilated.

Now they all rely on the advantages of the telescope to avoid the barbarians. If they are bitten by the barbarian cavalry, they can't escape at all.

After all, the horsemanship of the barbarians is much better than those of the cavalry who have only been trained for more than a year.

Cangzhou City.

It has been ten days since the last harassment by the barbarian cavalry. Currently, the foundation concrete is being poured for the new city wall outside the city.

At this time, tens of thousands of slaves were busy in the five-hundred-meter area. They were constantly transporting materials such as stones, sand, cement, and water from the city to the outside of the city.

The craftsmen waiting outside took shovels and mixed these materials in a ratio of 1:0.43:1.25:2.91. This is the C30-strength concrete of later generations. The construction of high-strength walls will basically use this strength of concrete.

After mixing, the slaves pushed the wheelbarrows to transport the concrete along the slope to the bottom of the foundation, and then used shovels to pour the concrete into the wooden formwork that had been supported.

Among these wooden formwork are the ground beams tied up by steel bars, each ground beam has a thickness of one meter, and there are seven or eight vertical and horizontal ground beams in the entire foundation.

Because the ground beams with sufficient strength will not allow the future city wall to sink and tilt.

This city wall is the key point to defend against barbarians in the future. Xiao Ming does not want to come up with a tofu project at such a critical moment, so the design of this city wall must be rigorous.

Supervising the pouring on the foundation, Xiao Ming felt a little more at ease. Once the foundation was poured, the barbarians could no longer destroy the concrete. The concrete solidified very quickly, and the wooden formwork could basically be removed within a week.

His Royal Highness, I didn't expect that this building is also a subject of knowledge, but officials in the world have learned a lot in the past two years. Zhan Xingchang said excitedly.

Xiao Ming smiled and said: Of course, otherwise this king will not come in person, if you come, the city wall will definitely be finished, and these craftsmen only built brick-concrete structures before, and have never had any experience in concrete construction. This time, this king is here. It is also to train these craftsmen, and these craftsmen will be the exclusive construction camp of Qingzhou in the future.

Construction Camp? Zhan Xingchang smiled and said, This name is not bad.
