Re: The Greatwall of China





Dear SLLee,

I received the following message which I do not know how to answer.
Could you or our Hakka friends please help me to answer Leo Tian.

Hi:
I am an undergraduate student of IUPUI in the USA, I am taking the class of
public speaking and I am going to give a speech about the Greatwall of China.
I read the mail you posted for Sllee and it help me a lot to understand the
Greatwall.  You must be an expert of it.  Would you please spend few minutes
on my questions?  I really appreciate.
I have been to Greatwall two times and saw some T-shape Greatwall, does it
have some special function during the wall or any other reason to build that
way?  Million people died there, but how did they build the Greatwall on the
top of the mountains?  Did they have any special method or tools?  What is the
value during the war at that time?  How fast did the army travel on the
Greatwall after they got the signal of the war?
	The answer of these questions will help me to finish my speech and let
American students know something more about China.  Would you mind if I ask
about your related background of Greatwall or China?
	Thank you very much for your help!
Best regards!

Leo Tian
