Chapter 869 Testing Strength
Zhou Xu has long been considering the area of the fortress.
Pingyuan City was originally a city. After it was converted into a fortress, the area was a bit too large. This would actually increase the pressure on the garrison.
It would be just right to reduce the circle by two and reduce the floor space.
While talking, Zhou Xu simply clicked on the design drawings and discussed it directly with the engineering team leader on the wall.
"Oh, by the way, during the design, a special area was designated for building a farm, which can raise livestock and cultivate land."
The engineering team leader was confused when he heard this. , I don’t know why their Majesty wants to set up a farm in a military fortress.
But he has learned to be smart now. Anyway, he will do whatever His Majesty says and it will be over.
Shi Lei, on the other hand, had some thoughts after hearing this instruction.
Just like when he was stationed in Anling City and was besieged by the Liang State troops, if there was not enough food in the city at that time, he would inevitably fall into passivity when formulating tactics.
This situation will only become more serious in New Taipei District.
After all, the rear areas of the New South District have sufficient supplies, and military support can also be deployed in a timely manner.
Looking at the New Taipei District, it can be said that it is currently in a state of exhaustion, and it is still far away from the New South District. Before the homing pigeons are trained, even information between the two areas cannot be transmitted in time. .
To put it simply, if something happens, they will most likely have to save themselves.
Under this premise, the area of Pingyuan City is there. The area of a city is completely converted into a fortress. It is not necessary to use so much. It is better to set aside a part to build a farm and grow some good food. , and raise some livestock such as chickens, ducks, and pigs.
On weekdays, they can subsidize some food for the inside of the fortress, but at critical moments, they can even provide food for themselves. It can be said that they kill two birds with one stone.
After that, Zhou Xu walked around briefly, perfected his ideas for renovation, and then rested in the mansion arranged by Shi Lei.
There was no talk all night. It was basically a busy day. At the same time, Zhou Xu, who had consumed a lot of the power of the mantra for giving Shi Lei the mantra to reconcile Liancheng, fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow and fell asleep straight away. It's broad daylight.
Early the next morning, Zhou Xu and Xie Liancheng did morning exercises together, and asked Xie Liancheng to check out his leg lift.
After the fight, Xie Liancheng nodded with satisfaction.
"That's right, that's right. Your kid is very good at playing elementary school stuff. It depends on whether you are willing to learn."
Xie Liancheng said this with a rather emotional expression.
Unlike me, no one would think that Zhou Xu was not smart since he was a child.
If he was not smart, would he be able to hand in half a blank paper and pass the exam?
But at the same time, he is extremely willful, otherwise he would not be able to do the kind of thing where he just handed in half a blank paper.
For Zhou Xu, if he doesn't want to learn something, he just doesn't want to learn it. If he's not interested in something, he just doesn't have interest in it. It's useless if you press his head and ask him to look at it.
“You can learn the big frame now. Of course, if you just want to keep fit, you’ve got to this point. It depends on yourself whether you want to learn from it in the future.”
Interview Zhou Xu didn't think much about this issue.
“Let’s learn. You’ve already learned this, so you might as well finish it.”
“Okay, I’ll give it to you first, and you’ll be optimistic.”

As he spoke, Jie Liancheng had already put his posture into full swing.
Different from the leg lift, each posture of this large frame is not followed by a leg lift, but is changed to a follow-up step. The steps and range of movements are larger than those of the leg lift.
During practice, Jie Liancheng does a sitting-leg lunge. In every pose, the buttocks are lower than the knees, and the entire center of gravity is very low. When advancing and retreating, one leg is in a squatting state, and both legs are squatting. And make a leg. Zhou Xuguang was watching from the side and could feel that this big fight was much more tiring than the leg lift.
Just as he was thinking this, Xie Liancheng had finished his set, closed his fists and spoke.
"The big frame is a boxing frame based on the leg-raising frame, used to improve one's skill. The deeper the skill, the slower the fight. To put it bluntly, the slower the fight, the more tiring it will be, and the higher the requirements for physical fitness."
On the way to martial arts, although Xie Liancheng himself is a talented player, he is surprisingly easy to understand when teaching others.
Of course, this has something to do with Zhou Xu's own strong learning ability.
After this back and forth, Zhou Xu had initially mastered the methods of the big frame. From then on, it was the same as before, practicing by himself every day. When he was almost done, he came to Jie Liancheng to upgrade his skills. It's done.
After a new day of morning exercises and breakfast, Zhou Xu and Shi Lei met, then rode a carriage and rushed out of the city.
What they have to do today is very simple, that is to test the strength of the green-skinned skeleton soldiers in the Hundred Refining Realm.
For this reason, Li Tie also came together.
In this test, Li Tie's positioning was very simple. He was responsible for fighting the green-skinned skeleton soldier.
At first, Xie Liancheng was eager to take over the testing job, but was rejected by Zhou Xu.
This green-skinned man didn't defeat him when he was alive. Now that he has been transformed into a skeleton soldier, his combat effectiveness has been reduced, and he can no longer use his mantra methods, let alone be Jie Liancheng's opponent.
If Xie Liancheng is asked to test, there is a high probability that they will not achieve the test results they want.
So Zhou Xu chose Li Tie and asked Xie Liancheng to stay in the city to take charge, in case all the senior generals were not in the city and no one could stabilize the situation in time if something went wrong.
When we get to the place, there is nothing to prepare.
The job of controlling the green-skinned skeletons was naturally left to Shi Lei. As for Zhou Xu himself, he was just here to watch.
【Skeleton soldier control! 】
Driven by the power of the mantra and accompanied by a 'click' sound, the green-skinned skeleton quickly stood up.
He had seen with his own eyes how powerful the green-skin in front of him was when he was alive, and besides, their Majesties were watching the battle...
Holding the test device in his hand Wood stick, Li Tie was really a little nervous.
Compared to Li Tie, who was in a nervous and complicated mood, Shi Lei focused more on the consumption just now.
[This skeleton is indeed extraordinary. The mantra power consumed to pull this one up is enough to pull up twenty or thirty ordinary skeleton soldiers. 】
Skeleton soldiers are also divided into strong and weak ones. Basically, the stronger the skeleton, the higher the mantra power it consumes.
Shi Lei's discovery at this time can be said to have proved the strength of this skeleton soldier in disguise.
Without any delay, Shi Lei controlled the green-skinned skeleton soldier to pick up the wooden stick, and then rushed directly towards Li Tie.
After taking that step, the speed of the sudden advance immediately surprised Zhou Xu next to him.
“Good guy, not only can this skeleton run fast, but its speed is not inferior to that of a human soldier sprinting at full speed!”
