Su Ling kept her status as concubine and was unwilling to appear in public at the same time as Chen Li, so she returned to Tianji Cliff first.

Looking at the furnishings in the side hall, Chen Hai thought maliciously, if these old men in Taoist robes were put into suits or white coats, wouldn't they be the same as those on Earth

Chen Hai spent so much effort to melt iron and build a city in Yucheng Ridge. Is it really the monsters and barbarian warriors he was guarding against

Chen Hai took the shameless Qi Hanjiang to the Bamboo Hall, where the academy held meetings at the middle peak of Juquan Ridge.

In addition to Zhou Jun, Wu Meng, Cao Shan and other tribesmen, Chen Hai also took in refugees and prisoners of war in Juquan Ridge in his early years. In the later period, more than 20,000 criminal tribesmen of the Zhang family moved in. The population of Liquan had already reached 300,000.

Only then did Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan, Xue Cun and others realize that there was such a big commotion outside. It was not entirely Qi Hanjiang who was playing tricks, but Chen Hai, who was busy with his schedule, rushed back to Tianji Academy to kill him together. Welcome into the meeting hall of the Bamboo Hall.

The maximum transport capacity of the three Wind Flame airships is 600,000 jins. In addition, major components such as airbags, dragon hulls, gondolas, and Wind Flame steam boxes require regular maintenance, repair, and replacement. The maximum transport capacity per year is 100 million jins. .

At the same time, there are also some indigenous villages in the deep mountains. There are hundreds of thousands of mountain people living in various forests, living and reproducing, and living an isolated life.

The craftsmen and craftsman apprentices who were rushing back and forth bowed their heads and saluted Chen Hai one after another, and Chen Hai nodded in response.

Chen Hai nodded, believing that Zhang Xiong and the others had also understood the great value of the mining vehicle structure, and asked Zhao Ruhui to supervise the manufacturing of the mining vehicle, and then left Zhang Xiong to speak alone.

At this time, they still want to melt iron to build cities, and in the future, ten major cities will be built along the Yucheng Ridge line. The copper and iron ore consumed will be far from the concept of one to two hundred million kilograms.

Thinking of the earth, Chen Hai felt sad for a while, fearing that he would never have the chance to return to his hometown again.

When it comes to high-quality people, Chen Hai only has 20,000 disciples of the Zhang family. After years of polishing and tempering, after the frivolity, arrogance and disdain for the lower class in them have been polished away, they should be able to withstand It will be of great use.

Every suggestion has limitations.

Only then did Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan, Xue Cun and others realize that there was such a big commotion outside. It was not entirely Qi Hanjiang who was playing tricks, but Chen Hai, who was busy with his schedule, rushed back to Tianji Academy to kill him together. Welcome into the meeting hall of the Bamboo Hall.

Tempered iron in Qintong Mountain is extremely rare, and there are many ordinary iron and copper mines. Tianji Academy has long discovered dozens of large copper and iron veins in the western foothills. However, the biggest difficulty at present is to remove huge amounts of copper and iron every year. The ore is transported from the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain.

The Zhang family was defeated at Yuchi City, and more than 20,000 clan members were exiled to Liquan along with Zhang Xiong by Chen Hai. However, Liquan was so narrow that most of the Zhang clan could not even get the farmland to support their families. Most people are assigned to work in many factories, and there is no need to imagine that they can return to their previous lives of fine clothing and fine food.

Chen Hai spent so much effort to melt iron and build a city in Yucheng Ridge. Is it really the monsters and barbarian warriors he was guarding against

It was a coincidence that Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others were also gathering in the Bamboo Palace to discuss matters.

Now the only way to connect the Tonghe River is to form an extremely rare waterway between Hengshan and Liquan. Naturally, it will not be difficult to transport the minerals in the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain. However, in calculation, the amount of the project will be larger than Building a simple plank road is much more difficult.

Thinking of this, everyone frowned.

Otherwise, the current water and land passage from Hengshan to Tongbei Prefecture would have been formed long ago, and there is no need to wait until now.

Su Ling kept her status as concubine and was unwilling to appear in public at the same time as Chen Li, so she returned to Tianji Cliff first.

At this time, they still want to melt iron to build cities, and in the future, ten major cities will be built along the Yucheng Ridge line. The copper and iron ore consumed will be far from the concept of one to two hundred million kilograms.

Unlike other sects or internal sects, where everyone sits in a row behind a long table, the Bamboo Palace discussion adopts a round table system. The Tianji-level craftsmen who are qualified to enter the hall and discuss the highest level affairs of the academy all surround a person. Things were discussed at the long oval table.

Only then did Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan, Xue Cun and others realize that there was such a big commotion outside. It was not entirely Qi Hanjiang who was playing tricks, but Chen Hai, who was busy with his schedule, rushed back to Tianji Academy to kill him together. Welcome into the meeting hall of the Bamboo Hall.

Worried that there would be a recurrence in the Blood Cloud Wasteland, Chen Hai found a clean room when he returned to Tianji Cliff, activated his snake bracelet, and then sneaked into the Blood Cloud Wasteland again.

Now that I think about it, it was not unfair at all to lose outside Yuchi City.

Chen Hai had already considered this. He had to put his skills into practice. If he still had to use manpower to dig out the ore with hammers and pickaxes at this time, he would lose the reputation of Tianji Academy. He learned from the storage ring. He took out a stack of scrolls and handed them to Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui and others to look at.

It would be impossible to accomplish this within five years.

After hearing what Zhang Xiong and Zhao Ruhui said about what they had discussed before, Chen Hai nodded slightly, and many tasks were progressing in an orderly manner in the direction he expected, and said:

At the same time, it is quite inconvenient to load and unload copper-iron ore to the Fengyan airship.

Of course, Chen Hai didn't say anything, and Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, and Guo Hongpan didn't think about it in detail. They just asked: "Is this mining truck going to be manufactured in secret?"

Except for Zhang Xiong, who was the culprit of the Xiqiang rebellion and was exiled to Liquan by Chen Hai with 20,000 to 30,000 tribesmen, Zhao Ruhui and others joined Tianji Academy and had no obligations to Longxiang Camp and Chen Hai, but they could resist the invasion of barbarians. , is a matter of great righteousness in itself and a matter that everyone has the unshirkable responsibility to do. Zhao Ruhui and the others gathered again today and were still discussing how to support the construction of the Yucheng Ridge defense line to the best of their ability.

Su Ling kept her status as concubine and was unwilling to appear in public at the same time as Chen Li, so she returned to Tianji Cliff first.

He randomly found a seat and sat down, and asked Zhao Ruhui and the others: "Master Zhao, what are you discussing today?"

Of course, when Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others saw the picture of the mining truck, they all thought that if the mining parts were replaced with spiral blades, would all traditional close formations, including the long formation created by Chen Hai himself, be different? The spear-heavy armor array will all be wiped out

At the same time, there are also some indigenous villages in the deep mountains. There are hundreds of thousands of mountain people living in various forests, living and reproducing, and living an isolated life.

Previously, for the needs of the war, Chen Hai gathered tens of thousands of strong laborers in the Xilu Mine to provide mining, loading and unloading services for copper and iron ore. He could barely keep the business afloat, but this was extremely uneconomical.

In addition to Zhou Jun, Wu Meng, Cao Shan and other tribesmen, Chen Hai also took in refugees and prisoners of war in Juquan Ridge in his early years. In the later period, more than 20,000 criminal tribesmen of the Zhang family moved in. The population of Liquan had already reached 300,000.

The Fengyan airship cannot be built quickly, and the maintenance cost after it is put into use is actually not low. Not to mention other things, an airship is used so frequently and the airbags are replaced once a year, which requires two to three thousand high-quality animal skins; even if there are Ten Wind Flame airships are actually far from meeting the demand for transportation capacity.

At the same time, it is quite inconvenient to load and unload copper-iron ore to the Fengyan airship.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

The Tongkou City that was built before only considered the garrison of 30,000 to 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the city wall was only built to a height of three meters. The real Tongkou City in the future must consider resisting the invasion of the Blood Demon and can accommodate hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of nearby people. One hundred thousand people can hide in to avoid disaster. On the one hand, the area of the city has to be expanded on a considerable basis, and the height of the city wall also needs to reach 20 meters or more.

After hearing what Zhang Xiong and Zhao Ruhui said about what they had discussed before, Chen Hai nodded slightly, and many tasks were progressing in an orderly manner in the direction he expected, and said:

"The cost of transportation using the Wind Flame Airship is too high. Even if there are ten or even twenty airships, it cannot transport billions of kilograms of iron ore out of Qintong Mountain every year, not to mention there are too many places where the Wind Flame Airship is needed. Construction The plank road is not impossible, but it requires a huge investment of manpower and material resources in the early stage, and the transportation capacity in the future will be limited. This needs to be done, but it can only be planned slowly. A short road connecting Hengshan can be built within five years. , even if it succeeds. The energy in the early stage should still be placed on the Tong River. The Tong River flows out from the east foot of Qintong Mountain, passes through Liquan, and goes west. After leaving Qintong Mountain, it continues north, towards Away from the vast sea. And in Qintong Mountain, there are countless streams, rivers and lakes, which can connect the mining sites with the Tong River. We can even cultivate more fields in the deep mountains at the west foot... "

Of course, in order to relieve the pressure on land and grain, Chen Hai had also been looking for relatively open valleys and flat dams in the deep mountains to the west of Juquan Ridge, almost on both sides of the Tong River, to build villages, and moved some landless poor people there for reclamation.

If you think about it, it is definitely much easier to gather millions or tens of millions of catties of copper and iron ore in front of the cliff and dump it directly down the hundred-meter cliff than to transport it to the hundred-meter cliff...

However, when it comes to transporting bulk materials, using rivers is undoubtedly the most convenient and economical method.

"The army of monsters and barbarians has begun to shrink to the north. This winter's defensive battle is coming to an end, but the front line of Yucheng Ridge is far from stable, and the pressure for subsequent construction is even greater. The import of young and strong labor has been negotiated with Tianshui County a few days ago. , the Zhou, Wu, Qu and other ethnic groups will no longer prevent landless poor households from migrating north to Yandangyuan in search of livelihood. It is expected that nearly 200,000 people will move to settle along the middle reaches of the Guan River this year. However, a large number of sophisticated tools and commonly used materials , Hengshan needs two or three years to build many workshops, and they still need to be transported from Liquan in the early stage. However, the current transport capacity of the three Fengyan airships is too limited, and they are in continuous use. At the same time, the pressure for maintenance is also extremely high - more importantly One problem is that Yandangyuan is a vast plain with lakes and swamps crisscrossing it. Even if there are minerals underground, they cannot be mined. The large amount of copper and iron ore required for city building can only be mined from the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain, but it cannot be transported. It’s a big trouble... Do you have any better ideas?"

Of course, when Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others saw the picture of the mining truck, they all thought that if the mining parts were replaced with spiral blades, would all traditional close formations, including the long formation created by Chen Hai himself, be different? The spear-heavy armor array will all be wiped out

Zhang Xiong also knew that this was a good opportunity for the Zhang family to rise again in Yanzhou and truly rise. Naturally, he would not refuse to agree. He knelt down in front of Chen Hai seriously and shouted: "Everything depends on the Lord's orders!" He truly threw himself into Chen Hai's tent willingly.

To build a plank road, you need to drill holes in the cliff, insert beams and columns, and then pave bamboo wood section by section. However, the width of the plank road is limited. It is easy for a carriage to pass in one direction at the top of the sky. And if you want to build a thousand-mile plank road from Liquan to Hengshan, It is not something that can be completed in one year, and the final transportation capacity is far from meeting the requirements.

Liquan Mountain has a lot of land but little farmland. It is only thanks to the fact that in addition to the Tianji Academy, the various clans built factories in Liquan that they can accommodate such a large population.

"Ahem!" Chen Hai coughed twice, interrupting everyone's discussion. With a wave of his hand, a topographic map of more than a thousand miles from Tianji Academy to Yandangyuan slowly appeared in a screen of light.

Welcome into the meeting hall of the Bamboo Hall.

After hearing what Zhang Xiong and Zhao Ruhui said about what they had discussed before, Chen Hai nodded slightly, and many tasks were progressing in an orderly manner in the direction he expected, and said:

Zhang Xiong and Zhao Ruhui were dazzled and speechless when they saw the scroll-blade mining car drawings, rail transportation drawings, and so on. There were more than a dozen kinds of drawings and conceptual drawings, especially the curling-blade mining car, which was actually installed on the front end of the overhead locomotive. Mining components can also be driven by the wind flame power box.

Chen Hai nodded, believing that Zhang Xiong and the others had also understood the great value of the mining vehicle structure, and asked Zhao Ruhui to supervise the manufacturing of the mining vehicle, and then left Zhang Xiong to speak alone.

Hengshan and Tongkou are in short supply of manpower. Can they spare 200,000 young men to go mining in the mountains

Everyone started to discuss. Some people suggested building more Wind Flame airships in addition to the three Wind Flame airships that were already being built. Some suggested building a plank road in Qintong Mountain close to the cliffs. Others suggested using the Tong River to build a plank road. The waterway in the deep mountains and ridges at the western foot of Qintong Mountain is used for transportation.

"Mr. Zhang doesn't need to be polite. Things are difficult. We just support each other." Chen Hai helped Zhang Xiong up and said.

It is true that the Tonghe River connects Liquan, Hengshan and Tongkou. However, the Tonghe River passes through the deep mountains and ridges at the western foot of Qintong Mountain. There is a height difference of 3,000 meters. Not to mention the rapids and dangerous beaches, the entire river also forms waterfall-like sections. The water leaked out, making it difficult for boats to pass.

Now that I think about it, it was not unfair at all to lose outside Yuchi City.

It was a coincidence that Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others were also gathering in the Bamboo Palace to discuss matters.

"Mr. Zhang doesn't need to be polite. Things are difficult. We just support each other." Chen Hai helped Zhang Xiong up and said.

The Zhang family was defeated at Yuchi City, and more than 20,000 clan members were exiled to Liquan along with Zhang Xiong by Chen Hai. However, Liquan was so narrow that most of the Zhang clan could not even get the farmland to support their families. Most people are assigned to work in many factories, and there is no need to imagine that they can return to their previous lives of fine clothing and fine food.

Thinking of the earth, Chen Hai felt sad for a while, fearing that he would never have the chance to return to his hometown again.

Otherwise, the current water and land passage from Hengshan to Tongbei Prefecture would have been formed long ago, and there is no need to wait until now.

After hearing what Zhang Xiong and Zhao Ruhui said about what they had discussed before, Chen Hai nodded slightly, and many tasks were progressing in an orderly manner in the direction he expected, and said:

Now that I think about it, it was not unfair at all to lose outside Yuchi City.

However, when it comes to transporting bulk materials, using rivers is undoubtedly the most convenient and economical method.

The Zhang family was defeated at Yuchi City, and more than 20,000 clan members were exiled to Liquan along with Zhang Xiong by Chen Hai. However, Liquan was so narrow that most of the Zhang clan could not even get the farmland to support their families. Most people are assigned to work in many factories, and there is no need to imagine that they can return to their previous lives of fine clothing and fine food.

Only then did Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan, Xue Cun and others realize that there was such a big commotion outside. It was not entirely Qi Hanjiang who was playing tricks, but Chen Hai, who was busy with his schedule, rushed back to Tianji Academy to kill him together. Welcome into the meeting hall of the Bamboo Hall.

"The cost of transportation using the Wind Flame Airship is too high. Even if there are ten or even twenty airships, it cannot transport billions of kilograms of iron ore out of Qintong Mountain every year, not to mention there are too many places where the Wind Flame Airship is needed. Construction The plank road is not impossible, but it requires a huge investment of manpower and material resources in the early stage, and the transportation capacity in the future will be limited. This needs to be done, but it can only be planned slowly. A short road connecting Hengshan can be built within five years. , even if it succeeds. The energy in the early stage should still be placed on the Tong River. The Tong River flows out from the east foot of Qintong Mountain, passes through Liquan, and goes west. After leaving Qintong Mountain, it continues north, towards Away from the vast sea. And in Qintong Mountain, there are countless streams, rivers and lakes, which can connect the mining sites with the Tong River. We can even cultivate more fields in the deep mountains at the west foot... "

Now the only way to connect the Tonghe River is to form an extremely rare waterway between Hengshan and Liquan. Naturally, it will not be difficult to transport the minerals in the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain. However, in calculation, the amount of the project will be larger than Building a simple plank road is much more difficult.

Previously, for the needs of the war, Chen Hai gathered tens of thousands of strong laborers in the Xilu Mine to provide mining, loading and unloading services for copper and iron ore. He could barely keep the business afloat, but this was extremely uneconomical.

Everyone started to discuss. Some people suggested building more Wind Flame airships in addition to the three Wind Flame airships that were already being built. Some suggested building a plank road in Qintong Mountain close to the cliffs. Others suggested using the Tong River to build a plank road. The waterway in the deep mountains and ridges at the western foot of Qintong Mountain is used for transportation.

"Ahem!" Chen Hai coughed twice, interrupting everyone's discussion. With a wave of his hand, a topographic map of more than a thousand miles from Tianji Academy to Yandangyuan slowly appeared in a screen of light.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

To build a plank road, you need to drill holes in the cliff, insert beams and columns, and then pave bamboo wood section by section. However, the width of the plank road is limited. It is easy for a carriage to pass in one direction at the top of the sky. And if you want to build a thousand-mile plank road from Liquan to Hengshan, It is not something that can be completed in one year, and the final transportation capacity is far from meeting the requirements.

If you think about it, it is definitely much easier to gather millions or tens of millions of catties of copper and iron ore in front of the cliff and dump it directly down the hundred-meter cliff than to transport it to the hundred-meter cliff...

It was a coincidence that Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others were also gathering in the Bamboo Palace to discuss matters.

At the same time, there are also some indigenous villages in the deep mountains. There are hundreds of thousands of mountain people living in various forests, living and reproducing, and living an isolated life.

Looking at the furnishings in the side hall, Chen Hai thought maliciously, if these old men in Taoist robes were put into suits or white coats, wouldn't they be the same as those on Earth

In addition to Zhou Jun, Wu Meng, Cao Shan and other tribesmen, Chen Hai also took in refugees and prisoners of war in Juquan Ridge in his early years. In the later period, more than 20,000 criminal tribesmen of the Zhang family moved in. The population of Liquan had already reached 300,000.

At the same time, there are also some indigenous villages in the deep mountains. There are hundreds of thousands of mountain people living in various forests, living and reproducing, and living an isolated life.

The Fengyan airship cannot be built quickly, and the maintenance cost after it is put into use is actually not low. Not to mention other things, an airship is used so frequently and the airbags are replaced once a year, which requires two to three thousand high-quality animal skins; even if there are Ten Wind Flame airships are actually far from meeting the demand for transportation capacity.

Liquan Mountain has a lot of land but little farmland. It is only thanks to the fact that in addition to the Tianji Academy, the various clans built factories in Liquan that they can accommodate such a large population.

Looking at the furnishings in the side hall, Chen Hai thought maliciously, if these old men in Taoist robes were put into suits or white coats, wouldn't they be the same as those on Earth

Every suggestion has limitations.

It would be impossible to accomplish this within five years.

Of course, Chen Hai didn't say anything, and Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, and Guo Hongpan didn't think about it in detail. They just asked: "Is this mining truck going to be manufactured in secret?"

Of course, in order to relieve the pressure on land and grain, Chen Hai had also been looking for relatively open valleys and flat dams in the deep mountains to the west of Juquan Ridge, almost on both sides of the Tong River, to build villages, and moved some landless poor people there for reclamation.

The craftsmen and craftsman apprentices who were rushing back and forth bowed their heads and saluted Chen Hai one after another, and Chen Hai nodded in response.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

Chen Hai took the shameless Qi Hanjiang to the Bamboo Hall, where the academy held meetings at the middle peak of Juquan Ridge.

Tempered iron in Qintong Mountain is extremely rare, and there are many ordinary iron and copper mines. Tianji Academy has long discovered dozens of large copper and iron veins in the western foothills. However, the biggest difficulty at present is to remove huge amounts of copper and iron every year. The ore is transported from the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain.

It is true that the Tonghe River connects Liquan, Hengshan and Tongkou. However, the Tonghe River passes through the deep mountains and ridges at the western foot of Qintong Mountain. There is a height difference of 3,000 meters. Not to mention the rapids and dangerous beaches, the entire river also forms waterfall-like sections. The water leaked out, making it difficult for boats to pass.

"It is impossible to completely penetrate the river, but it is not too difficult to transport copper and iron ore downstream in one direction," Chen Hai said. "The Tonghe River runs for 1,400 miles to the west, and there are four main places. For example, if Juquan Lake goes to the west, it is directly over a cliff with a height of more than 100 meters. However, if we set up a transfer station at the top of the cliff to transport billions of iron and copper down from the top of the cliff, it is actually better than transporting billions of iron and copper down from the bottom of the cliff. It is much easier to transport it up. You only need to build a slide against the rock cliff to dump the iron ore down... "

Liquan Mountain has a lot of land but little farmland. It is only thanks to the fact that in addition to the Tianji Academy, the various clans built factories in Liquan that they can accommodate such a large population.

Hengshan and Tongkou are in short supply of manpower. Can they spare 200,000 young men to go mining in the mountains

Now the only way to connect the Tonghe River is to form an extremely rare waterway between Hengshan and Liquan. Naturally, it will not be difficult to transport the minerals in the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain. However, in calculation, the amount of the project will be larger than Building a simple plank road is much more difficult.

When it comes to high-quality people, Chen Hai only has 20,000 disciples of the Zhang family. After years of polishing and tempering, after the frivolity, arrogance and disdain for the lower class in them have been polished away, they should be able to withstand It will be of great use.

Everyone started to discuss. Some people suggested building more Wind Flame airships in addition to the three Wind Flame airships that were already being built. Some suggested building a plank road in Qintong Mountain close to the cliffs. Others suggested using the Tong River to build a plank road. The waterway in the deep mountains and ridges at the western foot of Qintong Mountain is used for transportation.

The Tongkou City that was built before only considered the garrison of 30,000 to 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the city wall was only built to a height of three meters. The real Tongkou City in the future must consider resisting the invasion of the Blood Demon and can accommodate hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of nearby people. One hundred thousand people can hide in to avoid disaster. On the one hand, the area of the city has to be expanded on a considerable basis, and the height of the city wall also needs to reach 20 meters or more.

At the same time, it is quite inconvenient to load and unload copper-iron ore to the Fengyan airship.

"The cost of transportation using the Wind Flame Airship is too high. Even if there are ten or even twenty airships, it cannot transport billions of kilograms of iron ore out of Qintong Mountain every year, not to mention there are too many places where the Wind Flame Airship is needed.

Looking at the furnishings in the side hall, Chen Hai thought maliciously, if these old men in Taoist robes were put into suits or white coats, wouldn't they be the same as those on Earth

Of course, when Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others saw the picture of the mining truck, they all thought that if the mining parts were replaced with spiral blades, would all traditional close formations, including the long formation created by Chen Hai himself, be different? The spear-heavy armor array will all be wiped out

It would be impossible to accomplish this within five years.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

Chen Hai spent so much effort to melt iron and build a city in Yucheng Ridge. Is it really the monsters and barbarian warriors he was guarding against

If you think about it, it is definitely much easier to gather millions or tens of millions of catties of copper and iron ore in front of the cliff and dump it directly down the hundred-meter cliff than to transport it to the hundred-meter cliff...

"Ahem!" Chen Hai coughed twice, interrupting everyone's discussion. With a wave of his hand, a topographic map of more than a thousand miles from Tianji Academy to Yandangyuan slowly appeared in a screen of light.

He randomly found a seat and sat down, and asked Zhao Ruhui and the others: "Master Zhao, what are you discussing today?"

Thinking of this, everyone frowned.

Otherwise, the current water and land passage from Hengshan to Tongbei Prefecture would have been formed long ago, and there is no need to wait until now.

At this time, they still want to melt iron to build cities, and in the future, ten major cities will be built along the Yucheng Ridge line. The copper and iron ore consumed will be far from the concept of one to two hundred million kilograms.

Previously, for the needs of the war, Chen Hai gathered tens of thousands of strong laborers in the Xilu Mine to provide mining, loading and unloading services for copper and iron ore. He could barely keep the business afloat, but this was extremely uneconomical.

Transportation is one thing. At the same time, how much manpower and material resources are needed to mine such a huge amount of copper and iron ore in the hinterland of Qintong Mountain every year

It was not entirely Qi Hanjiang who was playing tricks, but Chen Hai, who was busy with his schedule, rushed back to Tianji Academy to kill him together. Welcome into the meeting hall of the Bamboo Hall.

"The army of monsters and barbarians has begun to shrink to the north. This winter's defensive battle is coming to an end, but the front line of Yucheng Ridge is far from stable, and the pressure for subsequent construction is even greater. The import of young and strong labor has been negotiated with Tianshui County a few days ago. , the Zhou, Wu, Qu and other ethnic groups will no longer prevent landless poor households from migrating north to Yandangyuan in search of livelihood. It is expected that nearly 200,000 people will move to settle along the middle reaches of the Guan River this year. However, a large number of sophisticated tools and commonly used materials , Hengshan needs two or three years to build many workshops, and they still need to be transported from Liquan in the early stage. However, the current transport capacity of the three Fengyan airships is too limited, and they are in continuous use. At the same time, the pressure for maintenance is also extremely high - more importantly One problem is that Yandangyuan is a vast plain with lakes and swamps crisscrossing it. Even if there are minerals underground, they cannot be mined. The large amount of copper and iron ore required for city building can only be mined from the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain, but it cannot be transported. It’s a big trouble... Do you have any better ideas?"

Thinking of this, everyone frowned.

Unlike other sects or internal sects, where everyone sits in a row behind a long table, the Bamboo Palace discussion adopts a round table system. The Tianji-level craftsmen who are qualified to enter the hall and discuss the highest level affairs of the academy all surround a person. Things were discussed at the long oval table.

Only then did Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan, Xue Cun and others realize that there was such a big commotion outside. It was not entirely Qi Hanjiang who was playing tricks, but Chen Hai, who was busy with his schedule, rushed back to Tianji Academy to kill him together. Welcome into the meeting hall of the Bamboo Hall.

Worried that there would be a recurrence in the Blood Cloud Wasteland, Chen Hai found a clean room when he returned to Tianji Cliff, activated his snake bracelet, and then sneaked into the Blood Cloud Wasteland again.

Hengshan and Tongkou are in short supply of manpower. Can they spare 200,000 young men to go mining in the mountains

"Mr. Zhang doesn't need to be polite. Things are difficult. We just support each other." Chen Hai helped Zhang Xiong up and said.

Chen Hai had already considered this. He had to put his skills into practice. If he still had to use manpower to dig out the ore with hammers and pickaxes at this time, he would lose the reputation of Tianji Academy. He learned from the storage ring. He took out a stack of scrolls and handed them to Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui and others to look at.

It would be impossible to accomplish this within five years.

Liquan Mountain has a lot of land but little farmland. It is only thanks to the fact that in addition to the Tianji Academy, the various clans built factories in Liquan that they can accommodate such a large population.

Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui and others suddenly became confused again. I believe that Chen Hai would never have thought of this. Once the Longxiang camp is equipped with such a curling blade chariot, used in conjunction with heavy-bore crossbows, the crudely equipped monster warriors will How could you resist? Do they still need to expend so much effort to melt iron and build a city along the Yucheng Ridge line

Thinking of this, everyone frowned.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

Su Ling kept her status as concubine and was unwilling to appear in public at the same time as Chen Li, so she returned to Tianji Cliff first.

Zhang Xiong and Zhao Ruhui were dazzled and speechless when they saw the scroll-blade mining car drawings, rail transportation drawings, and so on. There were more than a dozen kinds of drawings and conceptual drawings, especially the curling-blade mining car, which was actually installed on the front end of the overhead locomotive. Mining components can also be driven by the wind flame power box.

Only then did Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan, Xue Cun and others realize that there was such a big commotion outside.

Do they still need to expend so much effort to melt iron and build a city along the Yucheng Ridge line

If you think about it, it is definitely much easier to gather millions or tens of millions of catties of copper and iron ore in front of the cliff and dump it directly down the hundred-meter cliff than to transport it to the hundred-meter cliff...

To build a plank road, you need to drill holes in the cliff, insert beams and columns, and then pave bamboo wood section by section. However, the width of the plank road is limited. It is easy for a carriage to pass in one direction at the top of the sky. And if you want to build a thousand-mile plank road from Liquan to Hengshan, It is not something that can be completed in one year, and the final transportation capacity is far from meeting the requirements.

Chen Hai spent so much effort to melt iron and build a city in Yucheng Ridge. Is it really the monsters and barbarian warriors he was guarding against

Chen Hai took the shameless Qi Hanjiang to the Bamboo Hall, where the academy held meetings at the middle peak of Juquan Ridge.

Of course, Chen Hai didn't say anything, and Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, and Guo Hongpan didn't think about it in detail. They just asked: "Is this mining truck going to be manufactured in secret?"

Now that I think about it, it was not unfair at all to lose outside Yuchi City.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

However, when it comes to transporting bulk materials, using rivers is undoubtedly the most convenient and economical method.

Chen Hai nodded, believing that Zhang Xiong and the others had also understood the great value of the mining vehicle structure, and asked Zhao Ruhui to supervise the manufacturing of the mining vehicle, and then left Zhang Xiong to speak alone.

Thinking of this, everyone frowned.

The Fengyan airship cannot be built quickly, and the maintenance cost after it is put into use is actually not low. Not to mention other things, an airship is used so frequently and the airbags are replaced once a year, which requires two to three thousand high-quality animal skins; even if there are Ten Wind Flame airships are actually far from meeting the demand for transportation capacity.

Of course, when Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others saw the picture of the mining truck, they all thought that if the mining parts were replaced with spiral blades, would all traditional close formations, including the long formation created by Chen Hai himself, be different? The spear-heavy armor array will all be wiped out

At the same time, it is quite inconvenient to load and unload copper-iron ore to the Fengyan airship.

In addition to Zhou Jun, Wu Meng, Cao Shan and other tribesmen, Chen Hai also took in refugees and prisoners of war in Juquan Ridge in his early years. In the later period, more than 20,000 criminal tribesmen of the Zhang family moved in. The population of Liquan had already reached 300,000.

If you think about it, it is definitely much easier to gather millions or tens of millions of catties of copper and iron ore in front of the cliff and dump it directly down the hundred-meter cliff than to transport it to the hundred-meter cliff...

The Zhang family was defeated at Yuchi City, and more than 20,000 clan members were exiled to Liquan along with Zhang Xiong by Chen Hai. However, Liquan was so narrow that most of the Zhang clan could not even get the farmland to support their families. Most people are assigned to work in many factories, and there is no need to imagine that they can return to their previous lives of fine clothing and fine food.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

At this time, they still want to melt iron to build cities, and in the future, ten major cities will be built along the Yucheng Ridge line. The copper and iron ore consumed will be far from the concept of one to two hundred million kilograms.

The craftsmen and craftsman apprentices who were rushing back and forth bowed their heads and saluted Chen Hai one after another, and Chen Hai nodded in response.

It would be impossible to accomplish this within five years.

This time Chen Hai wanted to move some of the Zhang clan to settle in Hengshan and Tongkou, and let most of the Zhang clan separate and take root in Yandangyuan.

Of course, in order to relieve the pressure on land and grain, Chen Hai had also been looking for relatively open valleys and flat dams in the deep mountains to the west of Juquan Ridge, almost on both sides of the Tong River, to build villages, and moved some landless poor people there for reclamation.

Now the only way to connect the Tonghe River is to form an extremely rare waterway between Hengshan and Liquan. Naturally, it will not be difficult to transport the minerals in the deep mountains at the western foot of Qintong Mountain. However, in calculation, the amount of the project will be larger than Building a simple plank road is much more difficult.

When it comes to high-quality people, Chen Hai only has 20,000 disciples of the Zhang family. After years of polishing and tempering, after the frivolity, arrogance and disdain for the lower class in them have been polished away, they should be able to withstand It will be of great use.

Otherwise, the current water and land passage from Hengshan to Tongbei Prefecture would have been formed long ago, and there is no need to wait until now.

And if you want to build a thousand-mile plank road from Liquan to Hengshan, It is not something that can be completed in one year, and the final transportation capacity is far from meeting the requirements.

At the same time, there are also some indigenous villages in the deep mountains. There are hundreds of thousands of mountain people living in various forests, living and reproducing, and living an isolated life.

In addition to Zhou Jun, Wu Meng, Cao Shan and other tribesmen, Chen Hai also took in refugees and prisoners of war in Juquan Ridge in his early years. In the later period, more than 20,000 criminal tribesmen of the Zhang family moved in. The population of Liquan had already reached 300,000.

Looking at the furnishings in the side hall, Chen Hai thought maliciously, if these old men in Taoist robes were put into suits or white coats, wouldn't they be the same as those on Earth

"It is impossible to completely penetrate the river, but it is not too difficult to transport copper and iron ore downstream in one direction," Chen Hai said. "The Tonghe River runs for 1,400 miles to the west, and there are four main places. For example, if Juquan Lake goes to the west, it is directly over a cliff with a height of more than 100 meters. However, if we set up a transfer station at the top of the cliff to transport billions of iron and copper down from the top of the cliff, it is actually better than transporting billions of iron and copper down from the bottom of the cliff. It is much easier to transport it up. You only need to build a slide against the rock cliff to dump the iron ore down... "

Zhang Xiong also knew that this was a good opportunity for the Zhang family to rise again in Yanzhou and truly rise. Naturally, he would not refuse to agree. He knelt down in front of Chen Hai seriously and shouted: "Everything depends on the Lord's orders!" He truly threw himself into Chen Hai's tent willingly.

Zhang Xiong and Zhao Ruhui were dazzled and speechless when they saw the scroll-blade mining car drawings, rail transportation drawings, and so on. There were more than a dozen kinds of drawings and conceptual drawings, especially the curling-blade mining car, which was actually installed on the front end of the overhead locomotive. Mining components can also be driven by the wind flame power box.

Thinking of this, everyone frowned.

It is true that the Tonghe River connects Liquan, Hengshan and Tongkou. However, the Tonghe River passes through the deep mountains and ridges at the western foot of Qintong Mountain. There is a height difference of 3,000 meters. Not to mention the rapids and dangerous beaches, the entire river also forms waterfall-like sections. The water leaked out, making it difficult for boats to pass.

"Mr. Zhang doesn't need to be polite. Things are difficult. We just support each other." Chen Hai helped Zhang Xiong up and said.

Of course, when Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others saw the picture of the mining truck, they all thought that if the mining parts were replaced with spiral blades, would all traditional close formations, including the long formation created by Chen Hai himself, be different?

It was a coincidence that Zhang Xiong, Zhao Ruhui, Guo Hongpan and others were also gathering in the Bamboo Palace to discuss matters.

Worried that there would be a recurrence in the Blood Cloud Wasteland, Chen Hai found a clean room when he returned to Tianji Cliff, activated his snake bracelet, and then sneaked into the Blood Cloud Wasteland again.
