Chapter 249 - Construction Of The Ansgar Road Begins_The Sage of Einar

Einar, who was on the outskirts of the town of Fiskefontene, the town that had been founded with the Inuit poption and the poption of their tribe.

 He began to look with a smile at all the ves who were working on the construction of a road that should reach the north fort.

 For the construction of the road, Einar used a system of prefabricated cement tes, which had a simple wooden frame as a skeleton.

 Although these tes had a measurement of one square meter and a weight of almost 40 kilograms, they would only be strong enough to function as a base for the road.

 Einar knew that concrete bs should not support more than 10 tons and should have a useful life of only 10 years with maintenance.

 But it was necessary time to be able to build a real road in conditions.

 For the construction of the road, Einar created a cement tool that had the shape of a roller that had a stick in the middle that allowed it to rotate.

 That tool was an archaic steamroller that used the strength of a cow to be able to move.

 The first thing Einar did to make the road was toy stones as a base, then earth wasid.

 After having the earth covering the rocks, two cows passed with steamrollerspressing the ground, at that time the ves ced anotheryer of small stones.

 Cement and prefabricated concrete bs were ced on them, although it was a very simple method of construction.

 Einar used a spirit level to lean the road slightly sideways so that the water could fall into the gutters that were being built on the sides of the road.

 That way the water would take longer to damage the road. Also, the prefabricated cement tes had relief on them so that the horses, people, or carriages could pass through them.

 They had better traction so the road would be much safer. Another thing Einar did to ensure safety was the creation of signs.

 You are emphasizing how to walk on the side of the road while the center was reserved for horses and carriages.

 To avoid problems on the built road, Einar created a small machine that made lines using a ck painting.

 With it he delimited the ces for pedestrians, that way there should be no problems in the future.

 Even if he would have liked to make a pedestrian crossing, the path would have been too big and the construction time was too long.

 In any case, for Einar, what mattered was to create a connection between all the towns that he founded.

 For that, he will begin with the development of the northwest, following as a guide the path that Ansgar traveled, although the path went into the mountains.

 At that point it would be the secondary road, while the main one would run along the coast and the towns that were found around it.

 The mountains for their part will be ces where only animals can be raised, nting in height and founding defensive towns whose function will be to function as shelters in case of an attack.

 Looking at a map, Einar marked the location of the town of Fiskefontene, which was 14 kilometers from the capital.

 For the construction of the Einar road, he had to build 4 bridges to cross the rivers along the way, although it would be a somewhatplicated project.

 He nned to use Da Vinci bridges to be able to cross rivers, due to the ease of construction he would make them of cement and iron.

 Although they would not be bridges that wouldst hundreds of years as the iron rusts and eventually it would end up breaking, destroying the construction.

 It was the fastest solution while building really strong bridges which couldst hundreds of years like Roman bridges.

 The other important project was the construction of a one-kilometer dam that would follow the mouth of the river to prevent the flooding of the walled town of Fiskefontene.

 A dock would be built on that same dam to guarantee the entry and exit of ships without having to go to the coast. It was in a strategic ce to found a town that is why they chose it.

 ''Much work to do and so littlebor, I wish I had enough ves or Nordic poption willing to work ...''

 Einar then realized that he had been pinning his hopes on ves but hadpletely forgotten his ancestralnd.

 ''The Viking era was caused by an overpoption of the poption that caused ack of food that led to famines.

 The assault on the first Christian monastery made them see that there were ways to earn a living but what would happen if they were offered a stable life in a ce out of danger.

 Definitely, I will not call the attention of warriors or tribes that are Viking but the Norse settlements that live from fishing, hunting, and little agriculture are my objective.

 But in order to bring all these people, I will need a real fleet to look after my interests and I will also need propaganda to get their attention.

 Although the main premise would be to have a superior poption and enough soldiers to guarantee the internal security of everything built.

 In a year it should be possible to send an expedition to Nordds, to obtain a poption or ves who are willing to follow me to the ind.

 It should also be a good time to see what the ancestralnds look like, but in order to attract attention, I need a real fleet.

 Strength is everything in those ces. I think I could sacrifice some salt and other items to start buying a fleet.

 It should be possible to leave at the end of the following year so that the return time is sufficient to be able to return to the beginning of the harvest.

 It may not be a very high profit but it will serve so that the name of my nation is present in them, in case something happens they will know where to escape.

 All that poption is more important than avoiding Viking attacks, which are going to be stopped before they can do any damage.

 Even though they cannd on shore, the defensive towers and barbed wire should be enough to create a psychological shadow on them.

 Whether they die or get caught will end up being just coteral in the nation''s decision. ''
