Chapter 215 Catapult and Spike
Chapter 215 Trebuchet and Wolf Fang Bat
Luoyang City, Imperial Palace.
Tai Chi Hall, East Hall.
Wang Shiru had just been transferred from the governor of Yuzhou to the governor of Yangzhou. Before he could go to Jianye County, where he was stationed, Jianye sealed the city. He knew nothing about the situation in the city. So...
"I request to return to Yuzhou again."
Emperor Sima Youzhi was still looking at the map on the desk, as if he hadn't heard anything. The city wall of Jianye County was repaired and rebuilt by the ancestors at their own expense. It took three years to repair and make up for the weakest pass of the East Canal, and reserve grain in the north.
Yuancang was also included in the city.
Wang Shiru looked for help at Captain Bian Sili, who was sitting on the opposite side and closest to the emperor.
Bian Wangzhi: "It is now certain that Zu Yue was resentful of the transfer to the governor of Yuzhou. He gathered his tribesmen to cause rebellion and blocked the gates of Jianye City. The situation inside the city is still uncertain, but with his military strength, he did not dare to provoke Sizhou!"
The rebels did not dare to provoke Sizhou, so there was no point in attacking Yuzhou.
Sima Youzhi pinched his brows and finally spoke: "Yuzhou is the foundation of the ancestors. Zuyue has been thinking about returning to Yuzhou all these years. I fulfilled his wish, so why is there any resentment?"
Um... all the officials below lowered their heads, what do you say?
Bian Wangzhi still made a serious and sonorous analysis: "Zu Ti died of illness, and when Zu Yue first took over the post of his brother, it was easiest to subdue the Yuzhou tribes left by his brother. But at that time, Zu Yue was transferred by His Majesty to be the governor of Yangzhou, and the soldiers of the state could not be brought in.
Go, have to be alone
He took office. Now that Wang Jishi has been operating in Yuzhou for many years, the tribes loyal to Zu Ti have dispersed. Your Majesty has transferred Zu Yue back. The state army that he just conquered cannot be taken away by the county soldiers. The post of General Pingxi is equivalent to one night.
Time was taken away... Well,
That's it." Why is the emperor staring? You asked yourself, am I wrong in replying?
Sima Youzhi naturally changed the subject: "Xiang Zhuang drew his sword and danced, and his intention was in Kuaiji County."
Tingwei Huan Maolun said: "In the past six years, all the wanted gangsters in Wu County and Wuxing County were taken in by Zu Yue and escaped capture by Tingwei Mansion. According to the information investigated by Tingwei Mansion, there are also Mogan Mountain and Qionglong Mountain.
Dozens of gangsters have entered the meeting
Ji County, the destination is Kuaiji Mountain." Wu County, Wuxing County, and Kuaiji County are adjacent to each other and are rich in salt, copper, rice, and silk! If the rebels capture Kuaiji County, they will not only have the capital to recruit troops, but also have the ability to recruit troops.
If defeated, you can also escape to the sea.
Sima Youzhi: "I remember that your family captured Xu'er in Kuaiji County."
"Yes. Considering the time, it's time to conduct the quasi-protection army's county military competition test at Kuaiji Mountain."
"The county military competition assessment... The young guard camp is my face. As long as the county military competition assessment is destroyed..." Sima Youzhi pointed to the location of Kuaiji Mountain on the map, "The county offices and capital pavilions will increase their troops to Kuaiji Mountain.
The city’s defenses are weakened.”
Needless to say the rest, Zu Yue’s goal must be to seize Kuaiji County! The rebellion in Jianye City was a cover, and the rebellion in Xuancheng County was a diversion!
Zu Yue was short of capable generals, so he himself would definitely not be building Ye City!
Craftsman examination room.
The first city-defending instrument that Wang Ge wanted to transform was, of course, the trebuchet. The trebuchet was a rotatable, lever-type wooden instrument with the simplest principle. There was only one swing arm, and one end was a groove (with a groove) for holding stones.
The wood is made separately and tied to the lever), and there are more ropes at the other end for multiple people to pull the lever hard and throw the stones.
The entire lever of the mold machine is supported on a four-legged wooden frame. One of the four-legged wooden frames is engraved with the word "Ma Jun", indicating that the manufacturer of this rotating trebuchet was also the famous Ma Jun in the Cao Wei period.
Jun. The center of the cross of the "X" on the wooden frame
, erect a thick wooden pole, with a fork-shaped shelf extending across the top of the pole, and steadily bear the horizontal lever axis (the lever and the short axis form a "ten"). The lever can rotate because of the thick wooden pole underneath, and the principle of rotation
It is actually the same as the wolf tooth thorn designed by Wang Ge before.
The disadvantage of the trebuchet is that it has to constantly load stones of the right size during battle, but how can there be so many stones in the mountains? Small ones are useless, and large ones consume the team members' strength during the process of loading stones. There is also the danger of throwing stones.
During the process, only three team members pulled the rope, and the rocks could easily fall and injure people.
Therefore, the "wolf tooth slap" of later generations can be used instead of stone.
What is a wolf tooth slap? It is not the same thing as a wolf tooth thorn made by Wang Ge.
The wolf-tooth racket is a large wooden board wedged with an inverted blade.
Specific transformation: The grooved wood for holding stones was changed into a wooden board six feet long and five and a half feet wide. In order to reduce the weight of the wooden board and save iron materials, Wang Ge first painted all the inverted edges on the wooden tablet. Two days later, the iron was inspected.
Depending on the material, some iron blades can be replaced by moso bamboo. Moso bamboo cannot be wedged into the wooden board like iron. The method of using tenons can be adopted, first wedge the bamboo material, and then cut off the tip.
Later generations of wolf-tooth racquets were surrounded by four long blades and installed with four iron rings for hanging hemp ropes. These accessories were not needed in the wolf-tooth racquet modified by Wang Ge. All that was needed was to leave ropes between the densely packed inverted blades.
Just tie it to the position on the lever.
The thick wooden pole that holds the lever does not need to be modified.
But she drew two types of four-legged ones, one that kept the mold as it was, and one that was changed to a two-wheeled cart. Whether a cart can be used will have to wait until the day after tomorrow to observe the steep slope terrain.
After Wang Ge finished drawing two kinds of wolf fangs, he continued to look for molds in the artifact shed while holding the wooden tablet.
At this time, under a tree far away from the examination room, an old woman with a dark face and a bun with a scarf came. She was over fifty years old, carrying a basket, as if she was tired from walking, and pretended to look at the examination room from a distance, but in fact she saw the examination room.
They were surrounded by strong young men, and they were frightened. They were the brave men that passers-by talked about, being eliminated from the county martial arts competition?
What should I do? There are so many brave men, and they are all descendants of aristocratic families. If someone recognizes her, it will be in trouble. Few people know that Qi Duanren from Mogan Mountain is the son of the "Baboon Lady" in Qionglong Mountain. Her husband
She died young, and she was the only one in the world who did not have the nickname Erlang.
He has a name.
The old woman was feeling sad when a man wearing flowers and applying powder came over. Although he was ugly, he was polite and asked her: "Grandma, do you want to buy a grate comb?"
The old woman shook her head, uncovered the cloth on the basket, and asked, "Do you want to buy meatloaf?"
The salesman sniffed it and asked disgustedly: "What kind of meat?"
"What kind of meat can it be? Of course it's chicken."
"Chicken? Why does it smell bad?"
"It's your comb that smells bad."
at the same moment.
The second mountain that the eight hundred brave men were about to enter was halfway between the valley where the two hundred criminals were staying. In a patch of wild grass, the land undulated strangely.
It turned out to be a human being. There were countless fake dead leaves sewn on his clothes. Even if someone walked by him, it would be difficult to find out what he was hiding. "The Falcon just passed by."
Another piece of "turf" was turned over, and the face was revealed. It was a middle-aged man with a thick beard covering half of his face. "Falcons are really troublesome and cannot be guarded against! If it weren't for them, why would we have to suffer like this?"
Someone else was also lying on his back, smelling the fishy smell of vomited soil. "It's almost over, isn't it? I'll definitely kill a few more little beasts to relieve my anger."
"Don't just kill people, we also need to take Su Langjun away safely."
Whoosh!
Sharp arrows fly.
The falcon that the bandits were talking about just happened to fly over the second mountain. It overlooked the brave man who entered the mountain and shot an arrow at a fake tiger. He ignored it and continued to move forward, moving forward, circling the rest area, and then the craftsman.
The teacher's examination room. It saw someone committing murder behind a thick tree, but still ignored it. The falcon left Kuaiji Mountain and headed towards Duting outside the county town.
Its name is Yun Zhu, and its owner is the most powerful son in the world, Wang Yue.
Its mission is to bring news about a certain person in the valley to Wang Yue. This is Yun Zhu’s only mission, and it is different from other falcons!
Sizhou: refers to the area around the capital.
