Li Changsheng walked all the way to the cement factory at the foot of the city.
He looked at the first batch of cement that had been processed.
He walked forward and examined it carefully.
Although it was easy to make cement, the process and trouble involved were extraordinary. Simply put, the ratio of materials and the control of temperature. If there was a slight mistake, the product would not be cement.
He originally thought that he might have to fail a few times first and slowly accumulate experience before he could succeed.
He did not expect that his luck was not bad. He succeeded in one try!
Finally, he nodded slightly.
The people around them all heaved a sigh of relief.
"Pay attention to the protective measures. Continue refining according to this!”
Li Changsheng continued to give orders, and everyone cheered.
At this moment.
Wei Xiaocao walked over and said,"Sir, the materials you asked for are ready."”
"Alright, with this good thing and the strength of our numbers.”Li Changsheng raised a finger." I have absolute confidence that the collapsed city wall will be repaired within three months!”
Wan Mingzhu could not help but ask,""Sir, is it really that magical?"
"Of course." Li Changsheng chuckled." This cement has two main uses.”
He raised two fingers." Mix cement and sand, add water, and stir. It can be used as a strong binding agent. If you add fly ash, coal cinders, and so on, you don't need to go through the high-temperature roasting process. You can use a specific mold to form it and naturally dry it. You can produce a kind of cement brick with light weight and high strength, which is just suitable for making a city wall.”
In the starry eyes of the crowd who seemed to understand.
Li Changsheng rolled up his official robe and rolled up his sleeves.""Blacksmith, come here and see how I made it.”
Hence, what happened next.
Li Changsheng used the mold to make a cement brick on the spot.
This thing itself was not difficult.
As long as he looked at it seriously, he would be able to learn it.
Therefore, in the next few days, eight to nine thousand people gathered here. Some burned cement, and some made cement bricks with molds.
His days were quite fulfilling.
A week later.
The first batch of cement bricks finally dried up.
Li Changsheng was already standing next to the broken wall that was almost completely cleaned up.
After instructing everyone, they cleaned up the broken foundation of the city wall.
Very quickly.
Under everyone's operation, the cement bricks began to be built in an orderly manner.
Because it was a different method, the corvee workers were a little curious.
But soon, they discovered the advantages of this thing.
Because it was divided into small bricks, it was fast and easy to handle. It was much simpler than moving large pieces of stones that required three to five people.
Moreover, this thing was squarish and neat. It was simple and beautiful to stack it piece by piece. Moreover, there was no need to consider whether the other materials were flat or not.
It saved him a series of complicated problems.
As expected, the efficiency was much higher.
In the morning.
A wall as tall as a person was erected.
However, it was too simple. Some craftsmen couldn't help but wonder about the newly built city wall. Could it be sturdy?
After all, the city walls were usually built by stacking large amounts of stones, and the weight produced made it difficult for the enemy to break through the defense.
And this…this city wall, all relying on a small piece of cement brick in his hand, somehow felt…strange…
However, four days later, all the questions were answered.
After a small part of the city wall was completely air-dried, Li Changsheng gave the corvee a three-day holiday if anyone could knock down the newly built city wall.
Immediately, many people came to test it excitedly.
In the end, even if the ten men joined forces to use Iron Mountain Push, even if they used all their strength, they could not move the city wall at all!
This was the result.
For a moment, many people exclaimed,"Your Excellency is really a god!"”
"But why do I feel that this is within my expectations?”
"Sigh! Have you heard? The adults said that they would use these so-called bricks to build houses for us in the refugee area! Even Old Wang had received the construction blueprint!”
"Really? Heavens! For such a great kindness, I can't repay it all even if I work as a cow or a horse for ten lifetimes!!”
…………
At the same time.
Li Manor.
Before he even got close, he heard a burst of laughter.
From time to time, there would be cries of surprise from women.
He looked closer.
It turned out that Li Changsheng was riding a horse in the courtyard.
He sat on the horse's back, shaking left and right. He tried for a long time before he finally stabilized the horse.
Slowly, his riding skills matured.
It could also create a gust of wind in the courtyard.
Li Changsheng only got off the horse when he was tired and sweating profusely.
"This is so fun. Haha, Wei Zhongyong, Zhang Da, what do you think of this stirruping?”
He looked at the high-spirited youth in front of him.
Even the usually cold and emotionless veteran could not help but stutter at this moment.
Because after these days of interaction, he felt more and more pressure from this youth. It was the pressure that only came from the Emperor on the high platform.
But it was very strange.
The youth in front of him, who could always make people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze, actually gave off a feeling that was even worse than when the emperor was angry.
He really couldn't understand this.
However, this did not hinder his loyalty to the youth in front of him.
He cupped his fists and said," Your Majesty... County Magistrate Li, I think that this stirruping is very good. It is simply the greatest thing. It can allow the cavalry to have a very good point of strength when they are on the horse. They don't have to hold the horse's abdomen with their feet at all times to divert their strength. It can allow the cavalry to display their strongest combat strength on the horse's back.”
Zhang Da also added excitedly,"Sir, with this stirrupe, I feel that from now on, it will be the world of our cavalry!" Daren is really a god!"
Although the stirrupe was an extremely simple product, it had never appeared in this era. Even in the long river of history where he was once, the stirrupe had truly shown its might in the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, it could be predicted that the appearance of the stirrups would bring a huge shock to this era!
However, who would have thought?
At first, it was just because Huang City was too hot that Li Changsheng had the idea of going to the grasslands to escape the heat.
Hence, he came up with this to make it easier for him to ride a horse.
"Mm, in that case, let the craftsmen make a few more.”Li Changsheng chuckled." Come with me to the grasslands in two days. I'll treat you to an outdoor barbecue."”
