Chapter 30: The Eighth Son Remembered
Vaerik continued to explain his design concept: "For defense, the main gate will be covered with thick iron skin, preventing not only chopping attacks but also fire attacks.
The top of the stone wall can also be designed with arrow slits, allowing our archers to engage in battle from inside at any time.
Hidden places on the roof are reserved for boiling oil outlets; once enemies approach to climb, hot oil can be poured directly, scalding them to death.
These devious tactics can greatly enhance the defensive power of the earth building."
Finally, he patted the drawing and summarized: "Stone wall around, mud plastered with grass, wooden frame inside, hot spring water as a heater, earth building castle done!"
The craftsmen listened with wide eyes, completely shocked by this concise yet practical design.
What amazed them even more was that Vaerik could design such a complete building in such a short time.
Several people couldn't help but praise in low voices: "My lord, truly a genius!"
Mike pondered for a while, slowly nodding: "It is indeed feasible. The construction period might be shortened to within half a year, or even faster...
But I can't guarantee success, as this is something new, unprecedented."
"You research the specific technology and do your best," Vaerik patted his shoulder.
