The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1137

[Chapter 1137 Completion]

Although Huang Feng didn’t know what Lin Tian needed so many soldiers for, he saw too many things that shouldn’t happen to Lin Tian, so he didn’t say anything, and directly sent 200 soldiers to listen to Lin Tian’s command. Lin Tian

saw that his purpose of finding Huang Feng had been achieved, so there was no need to stay, so Lin Tian led these 200 people and came to the position he had determined again, and asked them to bring tools such as shovels and hoes.

“If we want to really resist the invasion of the Xiongnu warriors, we still need to open up a moat outside the city wall. Although I know how much manpower is needed to open up such an artificial river, and it even takes a lot of time.

But this is not the most important thing. As long as we can open up this artificial river, this river will be able to stop the Xiongnu warriors, and we can also rely on this river to play a certain resistance and firmly guard this fortress.”

Lin Tian said to the 200 soldiers. After hearing Lin Tian’s words, they obviously didn’t expect Lin Tian to open up an artificial river outside the border here, so they were all very surprised.

“Who has any questions now? If not, then let’s start the work.”

Lin Tian asked the two hundred soldiers, and then arranged for them.

After Lin Tian finished the arrangement, he picked up a shovel, and then drew the approximate location of the mining on the ground at the location he determined, and then signaled the two hundred soldiers to start working at the same time.

As soldiers, obeying orders is their primary task, so after hearing Lin Tian’s words, although they felt a little incredible, they did not refute Lin Tian, and started mining according to the location drawn by Lin Tian.

Although these two hundred people worked very hard to mine the artificial river, after all, the manpower was limited, so after two days, they did not open up a large area.

During these two days, Huang Feng did not come here to check what Lin Tian was doing here, so he did not know Lin Tian’s decision to mine the artificial river. Therefore, Lin Tian had to find Huang Feng again and asked him for soldiers to mine the artificial river again.

But when Huang Feng heard Lin Tian’s plan, he immediately refused Lin Tian to do so, because the manpower and material resources required to mine the artificial river were too great.

Lin Tian certainly knew what Huang Feng was thinking, because without the current large tools, it would be harder than climbing to the sky to open up an artificial river.

But Lin Tian had to do it, because only this way could he fully use these backward weapons to resist the attack of the Huns.

So Ming Tian used a lot of excuses to tell Huang Feng the benefits of mining this artificial river, and finally persuaded Huang Feng. But Huang Feng knew that the manpower required for opening up the artificial river was too great, so he didn’t dare to invest too many people in it, so he could only give Lin Tian another two thousand soldiers.

Lin Tian thought: Two thousand is two thousand, it’s better than the two hundred soldiers before, and it won’t take long to avoid mining a small artificial river.

So Lin Tian led these two thousand two hundred soldiers to mine the artificial river.

During this period, although Lin Tian didn’t do it himself, he was busy with other things.

In addition, the soldiers who were responsible for assembling the crossbow carts before also assembled the crossbow carts during this period, and placed the crossbow carts on the city wall according to Lin Tian’s requirements.

At the same time, Lin Tian sent people to make some changes to the two beacon towers of the fortress. Lin Tian added a lot of windows on the original Phoenix Tower. These windows don’t seem to be big, but they can shoot arrows when the Xiongnu warriors arrive close, which directly solves their shortcoming of close combat.

Although the yellow hornet didn’t say anything to Lin Tian about the two beacon towers, Lin Tian still saw that the yellow hornet didn’t want Lin Tian to move these two beacon towers, because these two beacon towers and the entire Great Wall were passed down from the previous dynasty.

But Lin Tian didn’t think so much, because if the Yan State lost in the war with the Xiongnu State, then everything they have now will no longer be theirs, and it will be too late to regret it at that time.

When the moat was dug, Lin Tian set up a bridge over the moat that can be raised and lowered, so that it can be sure that it is foolproof, so Lin Tian feels that he has done enough to solve this problem of the fortress.

If there is still room for improvement, it is that I am almost the same as the fighting style of these border guards. Thinking of this, two days thought of the guards Ying and Lie who were left by the yellow hornet to train those soldiers.

“General Huang Feng, now that I have solved the problem of this fortress, where have you sent my two guards?”

Lin Tian asked Huang Feng when he was leading Huang Feng to check it one day.

“Oh? Prime Minister Lin, is it done so quickly? Your two guards, don’t mention how serious they are. My group of soldiers are just a mob in their eyes. I wanted to tell you about this before, but I forgot because you were too busy. The group of soldiers they are

training for me now is no less than some elite troops, and even better. I will take you to see the results of their training when I have time.”

Huang Feng was stunned for a moment after hearing Lin Tian’s words, and then he spoke to Lin Tian again.

The reason why Huang Feng was stunned was because he didn’t expect Lin Tian to solve the problem of this fortress so quickly, because the problem of this fortress has troubled them for many years, and they have no way to solve it.

Now Lin Tian has just been here for more than a month, and he has solved the problem of this fortress, which is really a bit unbelievable for them.

“Don’t wait until you are free. Let them bring the elite soldiers they have trained over now. This will help me see if the problems of this fortress have been solved.

Let them play the role of Xiongnu warriors and pretend to attack this fortress. This way, I can check their training results and see if the problems of this fortress have been solved.”

After hearing what Hornet said, Lin Tian thought for a while and then spoke to Hornet.

“That’s a good idea. Why didn’t I think of it? I’ll send someone to call them over right now, and also have all his soldiers come over. This way, we can test them in actual combat.”
