The two boats look slightly better than the other boats on the shore. No matter in terms of size or newness, they are not as good as commonly used ferries. But if the boat operators are skilled, it is very possible to cross to the other side.

At night, the water flow conditions are more relaxed than during the day.

The two small boats swayed towards the river under the gaze of everyone.

When we were several dozen meters in the middle of the river, everyone could still clearly see the appearance of the boat.

After several dozen meters, even if they had excellent eyesight, they could only see a blurry shadow.

As the boat went farther and farther, and the sky became dark, gradually nothing could be seen. All we could do was imagine and guess where they had gone and whether they had encountered any trouble.

"Stop looking!"

Feng Wuyou suddenly made a sound, which startled Zhou Mu.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that the palms of his clenched hands had fingernail marks.

These two boats were related to whether their plan tonight could come true, and the life and death of more than 70,000 people. It was impossible for him not to be nervous.

He even kept thinking about why he didn't prepare a few more boats, send more people there, and provide more insurance.

But the condition of his ships on the shore was really bad, and his time was too tight.

He tried his best to build two small boats that could barely cross the river.

No matter how many there are, not even one can do it.

"If you have time to worry, why not see if you are well prepared for other things."

Feng Wuyou said, turned around and walked down the embankment.

"Don't worry, Empress Feng, the rest of the things, whether it's wooden boards, dowels or ropes, are all ready."

Zhou Mu quickly followed.

"There are also craftsmen, all of whom have been trained."

On the riverside, there are dozens of piles of materials piled up in different categories, including large wooden boards, large bundles of ropes, and things like wooden nails that were chopped with swords.

It would be best if there were iron nails and iron ropes.

But they were attacked in a hurry, so there was no chance they could bring something like this out.

They are the simplest things like ropes, and many are made of clothing or tree bark mixed with horsetails.

In fact, Feng Wuyou was not worried about these things. The river was turbulent, and even the twisted hemp rope might not be reliable, let alone this kind of thing?

But Zhou Mu patted his chest and said there was no problem.

He is an extremely capable person under Murong Yi, and Feng Wuyou has no reason not to trust him.

What Zhou Mu brought later surprised Feng Wuyou even more.

I don't know what method Zhou Mu used, but the rope he made turned out to be extremely strong. Even if it doesn't last long, it is enough to support it for a while.

Feng Wuyou inspected all these things and found that Zhou Mu did things very appropriately. It was not enough to prepare all the things according to the budgeted quantity, but to prepare at least one-fifth of the excess.

This way, if something goes wrong, there will be enough to make up for it.

Feng Wuyou nodded slightly and finally stopped talking, instead focusing on the two big trees on one side.

On the big tree, there are several thick ropes that are very eye-catching.

That was after Zhou Mu woven the silk rope into other ropes in a certain way, and then tied it firmly to the big tree.

The silk rope stretched from the big tree to the river, and its thickness gradually weakened. By the time it reached the river, it had become nothing but the original silk rope.

A thin strip, almost invisible in the night. If it weren't for the occasional reflection of light, it would be almost difficult to detect.

Feng Wuyou felt extremely lucky when she looked at these threads.

She just put Ji Qing in Ji's shop, but she didn't expect Ji Qing to be such a genius.

When she got along with Ji Qing, in addition to giving him many weapon blueprints, she also talked to him about alloys.

With her modern knowledge and experience, metals are mixed in the right proportions or undergo chemical reactions to produce alloys that are stronger and more ductile than the original metals.

She actually doesn't know much about this aspect, but it doesn't matter because...someone understands.

Chu Xuan, Feng Wuyou's cheap dad from time travel, can be said to be an all-rounder in engineering.

From astronomy and geography to miscellaneous arts and crafts, there was almost nothing he didn't know.

In the underground study room Feng Wuyou discovered, there were almost everywhere relevant scientific materials left by Chu Xuan.

Regarding the process of smelting, it is even more important, and there are more than ten books on it.

However, they are all written in English.

When Feng Wuyou had nothing to do, he would read those books, translate the important ones, and give a copy to Ji Qing from time to time.

Even on the way to the war, she would do this whenever she had time.

Ji Qing is extremely interested in these things, and he is extremely talented. He can understand almost anything, and he knows everything.

The kind of filament that Feng Wuyou used to climb the city in South Vietnam was developed by Ji Qing.

And during the days when she was reorganizing South Vietnam, Ji Qing discovered something remarkable.

When people from Fangzhou were cleaning up and rebuilding the Baizhizhou Palace, they discovered a large box of gold crystal sand further back in Chu Xuan's study.

According to Chu Xuan's notes, just a small amount of gold crystal sand can be melted into an ordinary weapon to make it several times sharper than an ordinary weapon.

After Ji Qing discovered this thing, he almost immediately thought of its use.

After countless failed attempts, he failed to create a sharper weapon, but instead tanned it with snow silk to create this extremely fine, yet extremely tough filament.

Feng Wuyou felt that this kind of silk was very useful for climbing or in critical situations, so everyone brought some with them, not expecting that it would come in handy here.

While he was rejoicing, Zhou Mu beside him suddenly cried out with uncontrollable joy: "Torch, they are on the other side!"

Feng Wuyou quickly looked up and saw two torches on the opposite side, doing the same giant loop.

The faint firelight was almost as dazzling as the sun in their eyes.

"Get ready to hit the water."

Feng Wuyou said immediately without hesitation.

On one side, Zhou Mu had already responded to the order in a low voice. With a greeting, he led nearly a thousand engineers and quickly ran towards the river with boards and ropes.

When we arrived at the river, someone had already rowed a boat into the river.

The boat was not in a hurry to row forward, but first fastened the rope with an iron buckle on the front end to the silk thread connecting the two sides of the Pingjiang River, and then rowed forward.

All the iron rings were temporarily modified after being removed from the boat. Fortunately, there were many iron parts on the boat to fix the oars, so it was not difficult to find them.

One boat after another kept rowing towards the river.

Because the silk money is fixed, you no longer have to worry about being knocked over by the tide.

The people on the boat are only responsible for pushing forward as hard as possible and anchoring at the agreed intervals to stabilize the boat.

When all the ships were launched one after another, engineers rushed up to the two ships closest to the shore, holding wooden boards, ropes, and dowels in their hands, and began to quickly connect the two ships together with wooden boards.

Behind them, another person stepped on the planks they had laid, quickly reaching the second and third ships to start the next connection.

Feng Wuyou and Zhou Mu rehearsed this connection process many times together before finally formulating the optimal plan.

Each soldier only does one thing. After completing it, he can move forward, and someone will naturally take over the subsequent processes.

Those who deliver the materials, those who lay the boards, those who tie the ropes, and those who fix them with tenons.

When the first ship finally overcame all difficulties and reached the cliff across the river, the pontoon bridge on this side of the river had already completed nearly one-fifth of the journey.

Not all of the Western Qin army arrived at the shore, but Murong Yi and Xiao Jinglan were in charge, leaving a considerable number of people in the camp.

If they were all taken away at once, they would be easily discovered by the barbarians. If the barbarians were not afraid of the iron caltrops on the ground and went on to attack at night, but no one in the camp stopped them, then their operation this time would be a complete failure.

If you really encounter such a situation, it is truly called sending yourself to death.

Therefore, Feng Wuyou only brought engineers, some soldiers, and civil and military officials to the riverside.

The high officials in the court looked at the two pontoon bridges that were erected on the river almost instantly. For a moment, they didn't know how to react.

Feng Wuyou said that it was not necessary to take a boat to cross the river. They believed it, but... they thought that Feng Wuyou was going to use her power to control water to find a way for them to cross the Pingjiang River.

But I never expected that Feng Wuyou would use this method.

Although they were unable to witness the legendary ability of silverbait to control water, what happened before their eyes was still like a miracle, leaving them speechless at all.

People crossing the river pulled two silk threads across, so the floating bridge was built on both sides.

The soldiers on both sides didn't have high hopes for this at first, but they didn't expect it to actually work.

Seeing that the bridge was actually completed, the soldiers on both sides began to compete to see which side could build it faster and reach the other side earlier.

Materials were transported one after another, more than 400 meters, and more than 70 small boats. It sounded very long, but it couldn't handle the large number of people.

The first boats that sailed to the other side were already carrying materials. While the engineers on the shore were working hard to build the bridge, the people on the boats were not idle, and were all doing the most basic work.

In less than two hours, about three-quarters of the bridge was completed.

Feng Wuyou no longer hesitated and said directly to the officials: "Get on the bridge!"

They couldn't wait until the bridge was all built.

You must go now.

Cross the river on one side and build a bridge on the other.

All the officials saw the bridge in front of them, but when they actually got on the bridge, they were still a little nervous.

Floating bridges are no more likely to sway than fixed bridges.

As soon as they got up, they couldn't stand firmly and were all scared to death.

But now if we don't cross the bridge and stay here, it will be a dead end.

In this case, they don't want to cross the bridge, they can only bite the bullet and give it a try.
Chapter completed!
