"It's finally done!"
Lin Yuan wiped the sweat off his forehead and heaved a sigh of relief.
He looked at the magnificent city wall in front of him and felt very proud and pleased.
It had been 12 days since the establishment of the wolf cavalry unit.
During this period of time, Lin Yuan had combined the Tyrannical Mechanical Technique and the Mo Family's Mechanical Technique to completely revamp the stronghold's defenses.
There were nearly 300 cavalrymen in the wolf cavalry unit, and each of them was a good worker. Whether it was moving stones, wood, or building, one person was better than five people.
In addition to the enhanced wolves, they could break trees and gravel in the forest. Their fangs and claws were more useful than any mountain axe or logging saw.
With their help, Lin Yuan was able to achieve twice the result with half the effort. In just 12 days, he completely transformed the stronghold's main gate and the surrounding wooden fences into a mechanical city wall that was made of stone and wood.
The city walls were flexible and changeable.
In addition to the main gate, there were also countless small doors, which were equipped with the "Zhuge Repeating Crossbow 2.0" that could automatically load arrows.
When necessary, the door could be split in the middle and become a guillotine that could split mountains and rocks. Even if they avoided the rain of arrows, they would still face the danger of being cut on both sides.
Not only that, but there were also wheels under the city wall. Under the ingenious mechanism, only 10 cavalrymen were needed to pull the city wall.
It also gave the stronghold a chance to retreat.
In an emergency, the mechanism inside the city wall could self-destruct and perish together with the enemy who broke into the village.
Apart from the defensive walls.
Lin Yuan also built a machine-operated beast by himself in these 12 days. It was the Gongshu Family's domineering machine-operated beast, the machine-operated snake!”
It was made of red solid wood and was connected by an iron mechanism. It was more than 30 meters long and had a circumference of nearly eight meters.
Usually, they would be inside the city walls. When necessary, they could take the initiative to attack or hide inside to give the enemy a surprise attack.
Other than that.
As the stronghold was leaning against a cliff, Lin Yuan even built a mechanical ladder to prevent people from surrounding them. If necessary, he could use the mechanical ladder to escape the stronghold from the cliff.
Of course, with the village's current self-sufficient ability, unless the necessities such as salt were exhausted and they had to go out to collect it, the enemy would be the first to die outside the village.
With these, the mountain stronghold with its back against the cliff would definitely be impregnable!
"It's only been 12 days! If Young Master was given enough time, the village would definitely become a war fortress!”Mountain Dog sighed.
Lin Yuan laughed and felt a sense of accomplishment.
Perhaps this was the reason why the inventor was obsessed with research and creation!
Making things was indeed addictive.
He smiled and said," Everyone has worked hard. Pass on my orders. In order to congratulate the completion of the city wall and reward the cavalry for their hard work, we will have a bonfire party tonight!”
"Long live Young Master!"
"Young Master is so good!"
"Young Master, you are a god!"
“...”
Lin Yuan looked at the shouting crowd and shook his head while laughing. These words were only shouted in the stronghold. If they were outside, the imperial court would probably think that they were rebelling and send troops to fight.
"But even if we fight, we'll just be sending our heads away!”Lin Yuan looked at the city wall that was like a work of art with a confident expression.
...
That night, the villagers gathered in the square.
One by one, bonfires were lit up. After nearly a month, another celebration had begun.
Lin Yuan looked at the villagers singing and laughing happily, and he felt very pleased. In this world, only his territory could have such happy people.
At the same time, she was also a little emotional. She had been married to Ruonan for almost a month.
He subconsciously turned to look at Princess Chang Le, only to find that she had a worried look on her face.
Lin Yuan picked up a glass of fruit juice and walked over. He held her hand and asked,""What happened to Ruonan? Everyone is happy, why are you so unhappy?”
Princess Chang Le looked up at her man, feeling very unhappy.
After they got married, Lin Yuan rarely spent time with her other than at night. In the past few days, he had been busy building the city walls.
There were even a few days where she slept at the construction site and did not even go home that was a hundred meters away!
This made her very disappointed and even a little insecure.
After watching the bonfire party today, she thought of the oath she made when she got married. However, because of her identity, she could not tell anyone about the melancholy in her heart.
He really missed his mother and wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with her.
Lin Yuan saw that Princess Chang Le did not speak and had a rough guess in his heart.
"Alright, don't be angry. Once the city wall is completed, I won't have much to do. How about I accompany you every day?”Lin Yuan smiled.
"I don't want to. Lin Yuan, I want to go home. I want to see my parents!”Princess Chang Le said.
Lin Yuan raised his brows when he heard that.
When Ruo Nan said this, he realized that his father-in-law had not been here for a while.
On the other hand, the soldiers who came to take the sweet potatoes came a few times and gave them a lot of silver.
Moreover, some time ago, he heard from the villagers who went out to purchase food that the emperor had ordered for the granaries to be opened to provide relief.
Lin Yuan guessed that his father-in-law had been busy with these matters.
After all, he was the one who brought the sweet potatoes to Chang 'an.
"Lin Yuan, don't be in a daze. Tell me, are you going to accompany me to see my parents? If you're not going, I'll go alone!”Changle nudged Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan smiled faintly.
