At dawn the next day, regiment leader Zhang Liao, three battalion commanders, and Xu Xun led four thousand people toward Julu.
At the same time, the number of defensive officers at several major city gates was also reduced by half.
Because of this, he also told other soldiers a new method of blowing the trumpet.
When encountering an enemy with less than a thousand people, blow once and then stop.
When there are less than 3,000 people and more than 1,000 people, blow for three breaths and then stop for three breaths.
When there are less than 5,000 people and more than 3,000 people, blow for five breaths and then stop for five breaths.
When there are less than 10,000 people and more than 5,000 people, blow for 10 breaths.
After ten breaths, when there are more than 10,000 people, they will blow the horn and light the smoke, so that they can respond to the enemy's attack as quickly as possible.
Outside the south gate, the city gate is still seriously damaged.
Qing Cang took about twenty guards and rode to the south gate to inspect.
Piles of wood were piled on site, sourced nearby.
Wang Zongwei was busy directing the people.
There were about thirty people.
They were rushing to repair the city gate.
If the city gate was not repaired, they would not feel at ease.
"Commander, you are here" When Wang Zongwei saw Qing Cang's appearance, he immediately ran over.
“How’s it going?”
"Commander, there seems to be a shortage of manpower.
All the carpenters in Huaxia City are here.
It will take about three and a half days to repair the south gate."
Qing Cang pointed at the twenty or so people present.
Mu Zuo felt a little unfamiliar to them.
These people seemed to have just entered the industry not long ago.
"Just these thirty people" "Yes, some highly skilled carpenters have left Huaxia City to find other places.
Only these people are here.
Of course, it was before we came.
It was probably because they couldn't make money in this city or other reasons that made them leave."
Wang Zongwei analyzed the reason, and found that a large city could only find thirty carpenters.
For them, it was indeed a bit few.
The task of repairing the south gate is important, but it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
Without craftsmen, it will not be repaired quickly.
Qingcang thought to himself, "If this is the case, there is nothing we can do.
Fortunately, I am prepared."
He looked at the sky and murmured: "They should be arriving by now."
"What does the commander mean by this?
Who is coming?"
Wang Zongwei looked confused.
Who did they mean was coming?
After asking this question, I heard the sound of riding horses coming from not far away.
Wang Chongwei is very familiar with these people because they have worked together for a period of time.
"Yang Zizong, you are also here."
It turned out that this group of people was Yang Zizong and others.
Last night, Qingcang sent someone to meet them and asked them to come overnight to support them.
After all, they were his own people and were more proactive in doing things.
"Hello, Commander" There were more than a hundred people in total, almost all of them arrived.

As soon as they saw Qingcang's presence, they immediately dismounted and came to say hello.
"No need to be polite, Yang Zizong, look at the city gate behind me.
I want you to repair the city gate as quickly as possible."
After Yang Zizong said yes, he walked to the south door.
The damage here was serious, and it could be said that the entire door could no longer be used.
"Commander, it can be repaired at noon tomorrow at the earliest."
The city gate was reinforced with iron sheets, so it was naturally quite difficult, but Yang Zizong dared to say that it could be repaired before noon tomorrow.
Qingcang didn't say much, he just explained: "Time and stability are equally important.
Don't lose stability because you are rushing to build a project.
Do you understand?"
"Commander, don't worry.
I have participated in the production of this kind of city gate and know its internal structure well, so I dare to say this."
His words seemed to give everyone a reassurance.
If that was the case, that would be great.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"Brothers, we have work to do."
When Yang Zizong shouted, everyone rushed away, while Qing Cang called Wang Zongwei aside.
"Battle Commander Wang, this city has been captured and we have occupied it, but this is just the beginning.
I want to strengthen this city.
And make this Chinese city the strongest and most prosperous capital, more prosperous than Luoyang. " The capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty was Luoyang.
Its prosperity was unmatched by other regions.
It was the political and economic center of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty and controlled the lifeblood of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty.
The current status of Huaxia City is the same as that of Luoyang, so Qingcang wants to build it in a big way.
"Commander, how do you plan to reinforce it?"
"I want to build a moat and four suspension bridges, one outside each city gate.
The moat has two functions.
One is to resist the enemy's ramming vehicles, and the other is to serve as a fishing ground to provide us with some food reserves. .
The suspension bridge must be strong enough to bear the weight of two city vehicles. " "I understand, Commander.
I will put together a plan for you later."
"etc" Qingcang seemed to remember what Cao Chen said before.
"Four more urns need to be built and the city gates reinforced.
And traps are still set up between the city wall and the moat.
We have to deploy anti-horses outside the moat."
This is all he can think of, and this is what is called precautionary measures.
These city defenses can at least make the entire city as difficult to break through as an iron wall.
Of course this is not enough.
With defense, there are still some attacks left.
"On the city wall, set up a ballista tower at regular intervals.
With reinforced springs, I want the range to be about two hundred feet."
Wang Zongwei has become accustomed to the diversity of Qingcang's ideas.
But it’s all too much to figure out at once.
"I will plan it first and then send it to your office for your approval.
However, I am afraid that these will need to be completed in separate periods.
I am afraid that these many contents cannot be completed in a short time."
"Well, I understand this.

I think Moat can start first.
We can call some migrant workers first and give them three times their wages.
You will be the commander-in-chief.
As for the approval, there is no need.
I believe you.
At the same time, the sooner this matter is done The better it is done.”
Qingcang had a premonition that the news that he had captured Huaxia City had spread out by now, and some unknown forces were probably watching with eager eyes.
Maybe there is someone who doesn't open his eyes and directly leads his troops to capture this Chinese city.
"It's the commander" "By the way, there is one more important thing, and that is to build another four hundred ballistas and fifty city assault vehicles."
"Commander this is" Wang Zongwei thought Qingcang was going to attack the city again, otherwise why would he build so many ballistae?
"A hundred are placed on each of the four city gates.
They can be used as an offensive force when defending the city, and they can also be used when going out on an expedition."
With five people per unit, considering the current number of more than a thousand people, he does not have enough people to drive five hundred ballistae, but that does not mean that he will not be able to survive for a while.
"Okay, once the city gate is ready, I will let them prepare."
"Thanks a lot" The two were chatting when suddenly a fast horse galloped over and a guard dismounted from the horse.
He said respectfully: "Report to the commander, Chief of Staff Wu asked you to come to the meeting hall and said that he has important matters to see you."
"Okay, I know."
After saying that, he got on the horse, not forgetting to stare at Wang Zongwei again.
