stockade GRE

surround with a stockade in order to fortify

用栅起来来防御

A heavy stockade around the cabin protected the pioneer from attack.

小屋周的厚厚的栅保护拓荒者免受攻击。

That was my excuse to myself , although I knew it was wrong of me to leave only two unwounded men to guard the stockade .

这是我自己的借口而已，我知道两个未受伤的人守卫木屋是错误的。
