Mu Feng called Lihu and Mingguang and told them about the expansion of the Jiang family.

The two naturally agreed.

But after hearing that Mu Feng was going to expand the tribe into the forest in front of the tribe, they couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Warchief, are you saying that we need to cut down part of that forest as well?"

Mu Feng nodded: "Yes! Now we are nearly two miles away from the forest. All the trees along the way are cut down, and the wall is built directly against the edge of the forest! This time we will cast a brick wall!"

"Brick wall?" Lihu asked.

"Yes!" Mu Feng nodded, "It's like making pottery, you need to go to the East River to dig soil, dig fine loess, and I will find a way to transport the soil!"

"Great Chief, once we are connected to the forest, if the enemy appears from the forest, we will not be able to detect it in time!"

"No!" Mu Feng said, "By that time, the trees to the west of the forest will be cut down at least 200 meters away, leaving only two rows of trees along the way, which will be counted as the road leading to the tribe, and will also be given to the inspecting monkeys. Climb a hiding place!"

"Then what should we do now?" Lihu asked.

Mu Feng thought about it and said: "Now, take the slaves to the forest outside the tribe to cut down trees, stack the trees together, and use brick walls when building walls! Pull all the slaves except the war slaves. Cut down trees!"

"Yes!"

"In addition, now find some people to dig loess, come back and I will teach you to burn bricks!"

"Yes!"

Lihu and Mingguang immediately brought people to prepare.

Just do what you say, it has now become the style of wood wind.

After the two left, he began to think about Jiang's ideas for expansion.

Borrowing soil, burning bricks to build walls, ramming foundations, water sources...

Borrowing soil is very simple. The simplest method is labor-intensive and power-intensive. Just take the cattle to the river and carry the soil back.

Although cattle can carry a lot of weight compared to humans, the soil used to build the walls is a lot of fine soil.

In this way, the amount of cattle carried may not be enough!

The solution to this problem is to come up with a vehicle that can carry enough weight - a car!

In fact, he had thought about making something like a wheelbarrow or a flatbed truck before, so that it would be convenient to transport the prey when he was out hunting.

But the lush vegetation in the wild, coupled with the lush bushes between the jungles, made the wheelbarrow unable to move at all!

Of course, he's not doing a unicycle now, but a flatbed!

The problem of the flatbed car is easy to solve. It is not a big problem to do it yourself or to exchange it with the system.

The problem is how to traverse the forest and grassy fields once the flatbed is built.

This leads to another question - the road!

He rang out that there was a saying in his previous life, "If you want to be rich, build roads first." This sentence is not false at all.

Mu Feng now deeply realizes the inconvenience of transportation, and it is troublesome to do anything.

Especially now that he wants to build the city wall with great fanfare, transporting soil to and from the tribe has become a big problem.

But if you only rely on the herd to carry the soil back with animal skin bags, it will be carried until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse!

Besides roads, water is also a problem.

There are two ways to solve the problem of water shortage:

One is to dig ditches and drink water from the East River.

The second is to dig wells on the spot and draw water from the bottom.

The first method is too labor-intensive, because it is too long to dig trenches from here to the East River.

And the digging of the ditches made him think of the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty.

The second method is relatively labor-saving, but the amount of water used to burn bricks and build walls is not generally large. Aside from the problem of the number of wells dug, will the underlying water veins be damaged and thus affect the water use of the Jiang clan? It's not worth the loss.

In addition to water sources, roads, transportation and other issues, there is also the issue of the soil used for burning bricks.

The soil used for burning bricks is fine soil.

The fine soil is the fine clay that mostly exists under the surface silt of the river, and it is close to the yellow clay for making pottery.

Of course, when the vegetation growing on the surface is generally dug down, clay can also be dug out.

After the clay was dug back, it was necessary to add grass and wood ash to burn the bricks, and to build such a long brick wall, it was necessary to use enough soil. It was impossible for the people who went back and forth between Donghe and the tribe to not encounter any danger.

Especially when he thought of the last time he met Tuolong on Caotan, he realized the dangers of Caotan and the river.

After thinking hard, Mu Feng had to think of a comprehensive solution.

This method is to dig a ditch to divert water from the Jiang family to the Donghe River, and at the same time, clear the trees along the way adhering to the ditch, and make a way to take advantage of the situation.

The topsoil from the trenches is transported back to the tribe as mellow soil for planting crops in the future—soil rich in nutrients and conducive to the growth of crops.

And the clay deeper below is directly used to burn the bricks with mud.

In this way, not only the problem of roads, but also the problem of part of the soil is solved, and the problem of water use is also solved.

Moreover, the three "projects" are all concentrated on one ditch, which definitely shortens the construction period in general!

Once the water diversion is successful, Mu Feng will be able to create a big moat in the true sense, and then follow the moat to get a few dragons from the East River...

"Cough, let's put aside the matter of attracting dragons for the time being, this dangerous

The risk factor and the difficulty of operation are a bit high! "Mu Feng thought.

The first thing he had to do was make a flatbed.

He is no stranger to flatbed trucks. What is strange is that he does not know how to make this wheel.

In desperation, he had to ask the system and exchanged the technology of a wooden wheel - this wooden wheel is an ancient method.

But the expended achievement points are still 200 points, and his achievement points are now 3325 points - the previous brewing success gave 500 points of achievement.

The wheel ruts and inlay techniques use rivets and tenon techniques similar to Luban's woodwork centimeters, planing wood, punching holes and digging grooves, etc., which are not the same as usual.

And according to the method given by the system, the solid wheel is made.

According to the statement given by the system, under the existing conditions, such wheels are durable.

The first car took a lot of effort, and it took three days to complete.

Fortunately, he only needs to make the first car, and the rest are handed over to the craftsmen in the tribe, and he can teach it hand by hand.

During this period, Aoki finally returned from the Blue Bird Department, and he told Mu Feng that he had told Konoa about Jiang's crusade against the Black Tooth Department and the Yellow Wind Department.

Konoa asked him to tell Mu Feng: The Blue Bird Division is relatively stable with the Yunze Division in the south, and there is a little friction with the Changli Division in the north. It is unclear whether it will develop into a war.

If Mu Feng wants to attack the Lei Ze department, he needs to do it as soon as possible, otherwise he can only delay it for a while.

After Mu Feng heard the news, he was thinking about whether he should attack the Lei Ze department immediately.

According to his initial thoughts, the sooner the better, because it would not give the Lei Ze department time to react.

But the problem is that if the Changli Department takes advantage of the situation, the Blue Bird Department will also get into trouble.

Without the big tree that attracts the wind from the Blue Bird Department, it would not be so easy for the Jiang family to quietly attack other tribes without attracting others' attention.

For a time, Mu Feng was a little embarrassed.
