Walking on the official road west of Mexico City, Yang Ce witnessed the highest survival wisdom created by his ancestors when they were displaced in wars - this wisdom is called unity.

At least from the New World Mexico City to the ever-winning line, the boundaries are clearly divided but nowhere to be found. It is in the heart of everyone on the border.

On this side of the border is the Fort Alva, which is the three bastions built on the official road by the Duke of Spain, the city of Mexico, built by the Duke of Spain, to guard each other.

On the other side of the border are countless villages along the way. These villages cover a wide area and are well-populated. The most important thing is the giant buildings they built with historical characteristics and strong military defense characteristics, magnificent momentum, earthen buildings, earthen enclosures, earthen forts, and earthen villages.

In the historical environment of the border between Spain and the Ming army, immigrants from the four provinces of the Ming Dynasty moved here. Outside, there was a igniting war that threatened their livelihoods, and inside, the land occupied and waiting for an opportunity to fight were coveted their property.

In the past, Hakka people had a vigorous history of migration, but now the turbulent environment and new life have forced immigrants from the four provinces to become new Hakka people.

After traveling thousands of miles to the country, they gathered here, formed villages without any land, and followed the ancient tradition of visiting other places. People gathered together to fall in love with each other. They used local materials and built and built buildings along the mountain with the technology of ramming the soil that was older than traditional. One village, one building, and one building was a city.

The shape of the siege can be traced back to the architectural style of the Han Dynasty and the Minyue royal city at that time. The military buildings of the government entered the folk later to the Song and Yuan dynasties. During that period, the siege buildings were mostly square.

When the Japanese riots in the southeast were invaded, circular buildings were built to fight against the Japanese pirates and defend their clans.

Several concentric circular buildings inside and outside form multiple layers. The circular exterior wall is built with raw soil to bear the load. The higher the wall, the thicker the bottom, the thicker the bottom, the thinner the top, and two or three feet.

Tongxin Building is high outside and low inside, with buildings in the building, and the inner walls are made of blue bricks or earthen bricks to save space. After all, the outer ring building is the main defensive wall. Each roof is covered with green tiles, lighting, ventilation and defense are excellent, and the people of the village gather in it and bloodshed as an alliance.

In fact, most of the beads on the border are built by people from various villages hired immigrant craftsmen from Zhangzhou. They have many high-sighted people. They know that the situation on the western border is different from the situation in the southeast of the country, and they also know that the Dongyang Military Palace pursues the policy of hiding soldiers from the people. Under the guidance of two thousand engineers from the Dongyang Military Palace, the shape of the beads has been changed more than that of the country facing the southeast.

The most outstanding ones are the gun platform, the tiger platform, and the turret, collectively known as the three platforms.

On the vicinity of the surrounding building, craftsmen chose to build a horse-face wall extending out of the air at two or four corners of the outer ring building, and the lower floor is equipped with a perforation hole and a upper floor is equipped with a perforation platform for immigrants with bird guns and hard bows and strong crossbows to use it as defense when they are in danger.

In the surrounding building near the official road, in addition to the shooting platform that focuses on the defense of the people, it also sets up shooting platform for some weapons that the people do not have, such as tiger platform and fort.

The tiger platform is mostly built on the high-rise floor of the horse-face wall, used for the release of tiger squat cannons; the fort is mostly built on the middle floor, specializing in the release of infantry field cannons; when building the horse-face wall of the fort, cement is added to the materials, and the cement is made of the ever-winning cement factory made of volcanic ash from Mexico City and sea shells burning powder, building foundations and rammed out of the outside with raw soil.

It not only saves materials, but also ensures that the wall can withstand the damage caused by artillery launch.

The fort is usually not used, because the people have no more cannons, and there are only ten bird guns in a village. However, the military government has not restricted the people from making their own crossbows. As long as the village lieutenant reports the number of weapons to the military government every quarter, the immigrants have a large number of hot and cold weapons projected in their hands, but there are no artillery and rockets.

This is for the government army. Once the war starts on the front line, even if the government army loses its camp, it will retreat ten miles at most and enter the garrison along the way. Immigrants without weapons can retreat to the next village, and tigers squat rockets, two pounds and five pounds of field cannons will be pulled upstairs and can start another garrison battle.

Yang Ce walked along the way, and saw no less than twenty surrounds along the official road alone. Some of the surrounds had been built, and some were only halfway through. The people still lived in small houses outside the building. In the far side of the village, the people always looked at the pirate team under his command in strange clothes.

But no matter whether it is repaired or not, Yang Ce, who has excellent military literacy, is always hung up because he can feel that he is always under the surveillance of the circular fortresses on both sides of the north and south. If those surrounding buildings have cannons, the official road they are marching is just within the maximum range of the cannons on both sides.

If it weren't for the Beiyang cavalry leading the way, Yang Ce would probably have left his life here after the Mingxi border.

Sometimes the official road enters the ridge and rides on the horse and looks into the distance. You can see two or three such surrounding buildings on one side of the official road within your eyes. There are still many places far away from the official road - this is so terrifying!

He met many European bastions in the West. When it comes to defense capabilities, he believed that these bastions were much weaker than those bastions. After all, the size was here, and most bastions were too small compared to bastions.

But what's the problem?

This is a house.

No general would send one or two thousand or even more troops to attack such a house, which is meaningless.

But they are here, guarding the official road, and you cannot move forward without fighting; they are there, guarding every suburb under the Meiji in the New World, and you cannot control every inch of land without fighting.

Each village lives with immigrants and hundreds of indigenous households. At least in the official caliber of New Spain commander Yuan Zizhang, there are at least one small flag of regular troops and hundreds of militias on each surround building on both sides of the official road and on the border.

Relying on such a earthen building, can there be no three or five hundred people to shoot? Even if you bring a cannon, it won’t work. First, the firepower is limited, second, the cannon may not be able to be fired after it is fired, and third, even if you are lucky enough to shoot the gap, you will still have to attack the city in the end.

Yang Ce estimated that his commander and Spanish Alva had the same force as those of Spanish commanders, and he had come to attack Changsheng from here, but he had no good solution all the way.

The enclosure delayed time and blocked all the important roads and wildernesses. It was very difficult to get around the army and eliminated the opportunity for small groups of troops to scatter invasion. On the other hand, it provided an excellent offensive route for the Ming army. As long as a enclosure was dragged by a enclosure, the Ming army could not only resist head-on, but also launch attacks and sieges on the side and even behind the back.

Even if there are 30,000 troops, the Tulou really can't defeat you, but it's enough time for you to demolish four or five buildings to enclose the building. The Ming army has arrived from Changsheng. Not only can it come, but it can also get excellent supplies, water sources and rest from nearby villages, and maintain extremely high combat power to fight you.

More importantly, in Yang Ce's eyes, this kind of building built by the land that was actually controlled by the Ming Dynasty in the New World, and immigrants consumed huge manpower and material resources, mean a spirit. In a word, I am here, I will build the building. From now on, no one will want me to leave here.

These dozens or even hundreds of enclosed buildings standing proudly around the waist of the New World are probably the most vigorous history of immigration construction in the world during the Wanli period.
