Chapter 48

"Met the general!"

Still far away, the old village head bowed respectfully and reached out to touch the sweat on his head.

The man behind him looked at himself with a sense of caution and fear, in which there was anger.

"You're welcome, old village head. You don't have to panic. I'm not here to rob."

Jiang Kang smiled and said.

For Jiang Kang's words, the people in the village never put down their vigilance and watched the young man carefully.

"I came to ask you for some rope. I can buy it with money."

At first, Jiang Kang thought that money didn't play a big role in Tianshan. However, when he saw the reaction of those people to silver coins, he knew he was wrong.

"It seems that in Xiang Yu's memory, there are mountain fairs and auctions in Tianshan. The grade of the auctions is relatively high. Even Xiang Yu has only been to the fairs twice. The fairs are similar to the fairs where ordinary people can buy what they need."

Jiang Kang frowned and thought that the memory in his mind was not particularly complete.

He felt a golden gold coin from his arms.

"Gold coins!"

The old village head's yellow eyes lit up immediately, and the people behind him also stared at the gold coins in Jiang Kang's hands.

How to describe that look?

It's like a poor village. Every family can only eat enough, and all the things they can afford are oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar.

There is nothing else.

Suddenly, a man came up to them directly with a box and suddenly opened it. There was a million dollars in it!

That's the feeling.

"I want all the ropes in the village. This gold coin is yours. How about this deal?"

Jiang Kang has a smile on his face. In fact, he can give more to each other, but he still knows the so-called wealth.

The old village head nodded immediately, and the fear on his face was much less. He said: "this generation of mountain bandits never only rob but not trade. Today, as a general, we are ashamed of what we think."

"I'm not a mountain thief. Don't judge me with those thieves."

"The old boy talks nonsense. Don't be angry, general."

"No harm."

Jiang Kang waved his hand and said with a smile, "although we are different from the army and the people, we can live in peace. I hope you understand this truth. As long as you have no other thoughts about us, I will not harm you."

"The little old man understands!"

The old village head nodded, his eyes still staring at the gold coin.

‘

"Take it."

Jiang Kang smiled and threw the gold coin out.

The old village head took it with trembling hands and hurriedly said, "we'll search the rope for you now. Can the general come to the ancestral temple?"

Jiang Kang was stunned and said, "yes."

The village is not big, and the ancestral hall is also very small. There is a shaft in front of the ancestral hall. The wellhead is steaming out. A row of willows are planted around the wellhead, swaying in the cold wind.

Han's ancestral hall "is hung at the entrance of the ancestral hall. Two huge wooden doors open in the wind. Inside, there is a long table with a set of clay tea sets on the table.

There was smoke behind the ancestral hall. There was a sound of cleaning upstairs. Through the gap, you could see black spirit cards standing on it and staring at the bottom.

"Your surname is Han?"

Jiang Kang asked in surprise.

"Yes, are the generals and US surnames?"

The old village head asked with some surprise.

"No."

Jiang Kang shook his head and looked at the disappointed expression on the old village head's face, which was funny.

"Is there anyone in your village called Han Xin?"

"Han Xin?!"

The old village head twitched at the corners of his mouth and asked with a worried look, "there is really this person. Did he offend the general?"

Jiang Kang is happy. The world is really small. He just doesn't know if that guy is Han Xin he knows.

"Well. Of course not. Is it difficult for this person to make trouble easily? "

"Of course!"

Hearing the speech, the old village head sighed heavily and said angrily, "this boy likes to cause trouble since he was a child. Later, his parents died and became more uncontrolled. He was carrying a sword picked up from nowhere and caused trouble everywhere, but he couldn't beat others. It's annoying and humiliating. No, we're too busy with him. We gave him some money to drive him out. I guess we'll walk around the north city of Tianshan. "

Then the old village head shook his head: "a good young man, I don't know how to become like this. General, how do you know him?"

"Oh, I just heard."

Jiang Kang waved his hand and did not intend to talk in detail.

"As he said, it is a little similar to Han Xin's urination in history, although the address is not right."

"Han Xin and Xiang Yu have never dealt with each other, and they are capable. Should we save him from future trouble as soon as possible?"

Han Xin is known as an unparalleled national scholar, and is also known as a soldier fairy by later generations. He has great ability. He is named Han Tiao in the glory of the king.

This guy is very tricky at first sight. It's better to get to know him first.

Thinking of this, Jiang Kang said, "I'm very interested in this person. If he comes back, the village head can tell me that I want to see him."

"Huh?"

The old village head seemed to have some doubts, and then nodded and said, "since the general ordered, the old child remembered."

"Well, thank you."

When the tea reached half a cup, those people came with ropes, full of several sacks.

"Yes, thank you."

Jiang Kang nodded happily, carried the sack and threw it on the snow tiger's wide back. He turned over the tiger and arched his hand at the old village head: "I have something else to do, so I'll go first. If you don't spare me, please!"

"General man, go!"

The old village head bowed to salute and said politely.

"Uncle, this mountain thief is very different from others."

When Jiang Kang went away, a big man said.

When the old village head heard that his eyebrows were steep, he picked up the crutch in his hand, knocked it at the big man, and scolded: "nonsense. How can people be insulted with the word thief if they behave decently?"

"Yes, it's my fault." The big man smiled.

"He's not strong enough to steal, and he has soldiers and horses in his hand. It's a good thing if he stays here for a long time, but gouyu villa is not easy to hide, and I don't know how long they can stay here."

The old village head shook his head and touched the golden coin in his arms. Everyone's eyes lit up immediately.

"I'll go to the market every few days to exchange this gold coin and give it to everyone. In addition, you remember to be polite to the people on the mountain in the future."

"Yes, we know!"

The villagers nodded and looked excited.

This posture is obviously because the other party is really tight with money.

Seeing this, the old village head didn't say much. He just shook his head and walked aside. He couldn't stop thinking: "how did he become interested in Han Xin?"

On the other hand, after Jiang Kang went up the mountain, he began to draw the draft drawing of the catapult and the general shape of the castle.

After all, he is not a professional architect and his level is limited. However, Jiang Kang does not need to be completely consistent with the Western Castle, and the materials here are also limited and tight.

He is very honest. He just wants to live well and have defense function. That's all.

Due to the need to arrange the location of the catapult, Jiang Kang creatively invented a castle structure that overlaps with each other.

Taking Wang Zhaojun's place as the central point, it spreads outward one by one. The barracks of the black armour army form a ring to surround Wang Zhaojun's house, leaving several access corridors in the middle.

Jiang Kang's house is close to each other. In addition, there are eight barracks, two of which are side by side, leaving only four aisles.

After the infrastructure is completed, the target is placed on the upper structure.

In addition to the aisle, Jiang Kang asked people to fill a lot of soil in the gap between the houses for Wang Zhaojun to freeze.

Suddenly, the snow tiger also ran over, opening his mouth is the cold wind, freezing smoothly!

"You also have skills in emotion. Why hide it!" Jiang Kang laughed and scolded.

Jiang Kang asked Lian Chengyue to take a gold coin and asked the village head to send the craftsmen in the village to help. In addition, he also brought the family fire.

In such villages, almost every household has craftsmen. After all, they have to be self-sufficient.

Soon, 50 people came.

Jiang Kang cut down trees on a large scale and took another gold coin. The village head immediately took the old and young people of the village to help cut down trees.

Jiang Kang chose the 12 largest trees, buried the roots deeply, and used the method of four inside and eight outside as the support. Then he asked women and children to dig mud with water and pour it on the surface of the tree. After freezing, the whole wood was more than twice as big and strong.

Then rub the dry soil outside to cover it, and let people take the dry straw to form a rope and bind it all the way down from the top of the column.

Because of the large number of people, the black armour army is to build their own territory. Naturally, they are very excited, and the villagers work very hard because of gold coins.

Although the project is huge, with the help of rapid freezing, the progress is still very fast.

Jiang Kang asked for a three-tier structure. There are already columns, and the rest will be handed over to the carpenters. It's not difficult.

The central part of the original forest has been hollowed out and replaced by a tall three-story ice castle to be built.

At the periphery of the forest, Jiang Kang chose the location of the catapult.

At the periphery of the catapult, a frozen earth wall is constructed for defense.

This difficulty is even lower. As long as you pile up earth and stones and pour water, you don't need to freeze when the weather is cold. Wang Zhaojun and snow tiger just need to reinforce.

As for the direction of Houshan, Jiang Kang decided to be insidious.

He dug a huge pit. How big is it?

Twenty meters, the whole road was dug, and the excess soil was piled outside the ice tower castle to directly build an earth city building.

It's high. No way.

However, there is a staircase at the position linking the ice tower castle. This is the escape path left by Jiang Kang to prevent anything from happening.

Moreover, there are city towers on it. In case someone comes, they can set up bows and arrows.

"If the wall is widened again, I need to build a hard catapult."

The hard catapult doesn't move. It's installed on the city tower.

"It would be nice to have a crossbow in such a place, but the crossbow is too difficult. I can't design it at all."

Jiang Kang shook his head. If only he had a mobile phone now, google could do it.

But think about it. There's no mobile phone and no Internet.

Five days later, there was still no news from gouyu villa.

The icehouse fort has been completely completed. There is a cold air on the top of the mountain, but it is not cold in the house.

The castle was covered with thick hay. It was warm. There were many stairs in the middle. It was convenient to go up and down.

The upstairs layout is modeled on the Western Castle, with many holes for archery.

This is after the other party has attacked the mountain and has no way to defend, he retreated to the building castle and made the last stick.

The wall outside the castle was also built, and behind it were rows of stone catapults.

There are many stone catapults. The carpenter hasn't stopped for a moment. The rope and wood are almost used.

There is no elastic rope here, so Jiang Kang is not particularly satisfied, but his power is always OK.

An icebound fortress has been built on the top of the mountain.

However, Jiang Kang was not very satisfied, but the rest was very simple.

He built a pool to store water, which could be solved when the rain fell.

He plans to freeze the mountain road when the other side attacks and suppress it with a catapult.

As long as he doesn't go down the mountain, it's as difficult for the other party to rush up!

On the sixth day, the village head hurried over.

"General, a giant beast appeared in the north of the mountain, and three people died in the village. It's coming this way. "

Jiang Kang was not surprised but happy. He patted his legs and said, "great, the one who sent experience has finally come!"
