Chapter 137 Ma Yuanyi
In the village, Yang Tao found Di Qiu, who was directing people to build a town courtyard. Since he decided to upgrade Jianghe Village to a town-level territory as soon as possible, he naturally handed over the two architectural drawings needed for the upgrade to Di Qiu and Pu Lin to build two buildings respectively.
At this time, the outline of the courtyard was already in a site covering dozens of acres in the center of the village. After talking to Di Qiu, I learned that the courtyard would be completed in a few months.
Since township courtyards not only require a large amount of materials, but also have high grades, they need to be used carefully, so they naturally take more time to build. Yang Tao handed over the drawings to Di Qiu. It has been ten days since the construction was completed, and it is only about to be completed.
After inspecting the construction of the courtyard, Yang Tao and Di Qiu said goodbye to the near the earthen wall being built on the edge of the village.
Jianghe Village is a giant village. After being upgraded to a town, it will inevitably be larger than other town territories. Yang Tao has built the earthen walls even more huge, so as not to put down other buildings in the town in the future.
The entire earthen wall surrounds the village, with a length of 5 kilometers each, with a total length of 20 kilometers. The earthen wall is three meters high and a 3-meter-wide walkway, with female walls on both sides. Yang Tao left four city gates on the four sides of the earthen wall, but the earthen wall could not build a gate tower, and the city gate was just empty.
To build a soil wall, it consumes 500 units of wood and 1,000 units of stone per kilometer. Although there is no grade requirement, the amount of materials is really large. A 20-kilometer soil wall requires 30,000 units of materials. If it weren't for the 5 affiliated villages and the current surge in strength of the entire Jianghe Village, and the accumulation of a long time ago, it would not be possible to get such a large amount of materials.
At this time, the earthen walls on both sides of the east and west have been built, and only the north and south are still under construction. The construction of earthen walls is no better than that of small town courtyards. Although there are no technical requirements, it requires a lot of manpower. Yang Tao mobilized thousands of villagers to build the earthen wall as soon as possible, so he achieved the current progress.
In just over a dozen days, Yang Tao paid more than ten gold to the people who were recruited to build town courtyards and earthen walls, which was equivalent to more than ten thousand Chinese coins. Such a large consumption would have been impossible to consume if it weren't for the previous high-level water bandit camps and the fact that Han Heng had obtained a lot of money.
This is just the cost of hiring villagers. If the materials are included, it will be an astronomical figure for Yang Tao. No wonder many small forces in his previous life did not build their own town territory until long after the Yellow Turban Rebellion ended. Not to mention that there are only 10,000 town courtyards and earthen wall architectural drawings in each war zone, even if it is necessary to accumulate enough resources to build these two buildings, it is a huge burden. Perhaps only those top 100 forces can have enough resources to squander.
Looking at the earthen wall that was about to be completed, Yang Tao had to sigh that this was not a kind of earthen wall that was piled up with money. Fortunately, it was almost completed, so Yang Tao could breathe a sigh of relief. Just thinking about the more advanced city walls and other high-end buildings in the future, Yang Tao was having a headache.
After reading the construction progress of the earthen wall, Yang Tao returned to his stone house.
Since the congress office is being upgraded to a township courtyard, Yang Tao built a stone house for himself for temporary use for rest and daily handling of village affairs.
Time flies, two buildings are about to be completed in a blink of an eye, but a system prompt echoes throughout the Three Kingdoms Region.
"Announcement from the Three Kingdoms Region: Due to the rumors of the Tang and Zhou dynasties, the Yellow Turban incident was leaked, and the Emperor Ling of the Han was furious and captured the Yulin Guard... The Yellow Turban plot triggered..."
"Three Kingdoms Announcement:..."
...
The announcement of the Three Kingdoms Region three times made the players of the Three Kingdoms boil. Although they already knew the specific time of the Yellow Turban, when they arrived, it still caused a stir. After all, this was the first large-scale plot in the game, and all players were grinding their fists and palms to prepare for a big fight.
The Yellow Turban Preview plot alone has attracted a lot of people to start heading towards Luoyang.
But all this is nothing for Yang Tao. Even if the Yellow Turbans are about to come, Yang Tao still acts according to his plan, and does whatever he should do. As for dealing with the Yellow Turbans, Yang Tao has already prepared what he should prepare. He seems very calm in the face of the upcoming Yellow Turbans and quietly waits for the arrival of the Yellow Turbans.
Yang Tao did not want to participate in this Yellow Turban plot, but the world was impermanent. Even if Yang Tao did not want to participate in this preview plot, there were always accidents that forced Yang Tao to get involved.
In Shanyang, Hanoi, in the dark night covered by clouds, dozens of Yellow Turban people and horses guarded the injured Ma Yuanyi in a mess, carefully avoiding the crowd and walking towards a remote path. When passing a stream, dozens of elite soldiers wearing iron armor and tassels emerged from the grass. These soldiers surrounded Ma Yuanyi under the leadership of a big sword general. Facing the sudden appearance of the people, Ma Yuanyi was resentful and rushed up with a big sword.
When the big sword general Wang saw Ma Yuanyi rushing towards him, he snorted and waved his hand. The powerful soldiers under his command began to attack the besieged Ma Yuanyi, and he himself slashed at Ma Yuanyi with one sword. The two soon fought together.
Ma Yuanyi and Wang Zhong are both the strength of special military generals. They can't tell the outcome for a while. After just a few moves, Ma Yuanyi fell into a disadvantage. It's not that Ma Yuanyi is not as good as Wang Zhong Zhong, but that the equipment between the two is too different.
Wang Zhong is the chief of Yulin Guard, with excellent equipment, all of which are fine steel-level 5-star equipment. Although Ma Yuanyi is the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, he is equipped with only a 5-star bronze-level equipment, which is two levels apart. In addition, he is injured and cannot fight Wang Zhong for a long time.
Just as Wang Zhong and Ma Yuanyi added their hands, their subordinates also began to attack each other. In the few moves of the two, most of them were killed.
The Yulin Guard brought by the king can emit light like a general's skills from time to time. Although it is not as dazzling as the general's skills, it can play a great role in the hands of these Yulin Guards equipped with a full set of exquisite iron-level preparations. Faced with ordinary soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who only have simple equipment or even bronze equipment, these Yulin Guards, who are already elite soldiers, can kill a Yellow Turban Army without spending a second move.
Soon there were only ten people carrying a huge mace in the original dozens of Yellow Turban men, but when Yu Linwei fought with these ten particularly strong men, he encountered great trouble.
A 4-star 2-level Yulin elite soldier with a gun activated his elite skills and then stabbed a strong man after the spear wrapped in light. With a sound of gold and iron, the spear stabbed the strong man's spear and pierced the ordinary armor on the strong man's body. It actually made a spark on the strong man's body, causing no damage to the strong man. However, the strong man had no expression. After being attacked, he immediately smashed him with a stick. With the dazed eyes of the elite soldier, he quickly magnified and hit him on his body and flew out. Even with the protection of the steel-level armor, he was seriously injured by the attack. After seeing the person he was smashed away, the strong man immediately ran over and smashed him towards the elite soldier who had not yet stood up. With the sound of the bang, the elite soldier was smashed into the earth and rocks by the strong man, his eyes were dissipated and he was dead.
