Chapter 40 Hard evidence is like a mountain,

Seeing Lieutenant General Liao Ying spread a piece of paper written in front of Jia Sidao, Xia Gui and Li Tingzhi, who had just been ordered to investigate, looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Xia Gui did not participate in this merit-winning incident. His army did not leave the city at all. He wanted to distribute the merits of the soldiers outside Run City, but he was not bullying Chen Dexing but bullying Jia Sidao. At that time, he was kicked by Jia Dazhen to Lin'an as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council. Xia Gui actually didn't support Cheng Dayuan and several other generals of the army to compete for merit with his younger generation. Chen Dexing is not an outsider. He is the grandson of Chen Hushan of Anfeng Army. Chen Hushan was the old leader of the Lianghuai army, who had not died in the battle of Shouzhou more than ten years ago, he might have been the governor like himself. It was just that he had a little friendship with Chen Hushan in the past, it was really not worth offending so many people for Chen Dexing's affairs. Therefore, no matter what kind of iron evidence Chen Dexing gave, he could only pretend to be confused...

Li Tingzhi was thinking about how to protect Chen Dexing. On one hand, there were the chief generals of the army led by Lu Zhaoqi, and on the other hand, Chen Dexing, a small confession... This lawsuit was not evidence, but power! Unless Xia Gui was willing to stand up and support Chen Dexing, he would at most save Chen Dexing one more success, and it would not be a problem to transfer three or four officials.

As for his twenty-one "righteous brothers", they could only be promoted to the lieutenant and deputy lieutenant. At most, they would be rewarded with some money to comfort them. At the same time, they would have to be reused in the dispatch... Lu Zhaoqi's acting governor was not good for a few days. After he finished being a villain, he should let Jiang take over the team.

Lu Zhaoqi and Liang Chongru were constantly exchanging their eyes - how could they not know the reason why they would not die if they were killed? Since they had faced Chen Dexing this time, they must be punished to death! At least they would have to take him away! Otherwise, with his age and ability, Liao Yingzhong, the backstage, he would not be the commander of the army for ten years! Lu Zhaoqi is over 60 years old, how many days can he live? If Liang Chongru passed the Jinshi, he would not be afraid. A Jinshi who knows military achievements will be promoted to a court official in ten years, but if he fails...

As for the other generals in the hall, they all looked like they were not in their own affairs. The fourteen officials divided up so many families, but only one or two of them were just one or two. It would be okay to follow Lu Zhaoqi to make a fuss, but it would be worth it if they really fought with Jia Sidao, Li Tingzhi, and Liao Yingzhong.

Everyone's eyes were turned to Jia Sidao. Everyone had different thoughts, but they were disdainful of the evidence presented by Chen Dexing - it was nothing more than the transcript of the soldiers participating in the war.

"What is this?" Jia Sidao was also a transcript of testimony at the beginning, but it was indeed a lot of drawings of unknown objects made of lines.

"This is the torsion stone generator pattern offered by Chen Dexing. It can eject twenty kilograms of stones to two hundred steps away!" Liao Yingzhong said excitedly, "And this thing is not pulled by human power, but is activated by the power of the mechanism, so it is not big and only needs to be controlled by several people, which is convenient for use in field battles."

"Twenty kilograms of stones..."

"It can also be three iron cannons!" Liao Yingzhong was just browsing and exacerbating his excitement by three points. "If hundreds of aircraft are built for field battles, they can easily break the infantry formation of the Northern Barbarian Han Army!"

Hundreds of stone generators threw three hundred iron cannons into an infantry phalanx at a time... Such a terrifying scene appeared in the minds of everyone present!

Since ancient times, this infantry field battle has to form formations. If it is dispersed, it will not be able to withstand the impact of cavalry or the attack of infantry. To maintain the formation, thousands or even more soldiers will inevitably be surrounded by them. If hundreds of iron cannons descended from the sky and exploded in the crowd...

"This... can really work?" Jia Sidao always felt something wrong, but he couldn't remember it for a moment, so he frowned tightly, "How can he throw a stone without pulling a rope?"

"If you want to go back to your husband, this stone generator is called a torsion stone generator. It does not require human power to pull the rope, but relies on the force of twisting the tendon strings." Chen Dexing explained with a smile, "The reason is actually very simple. If there is a bow body, two bow strings, a headless broken arrow, and a chess piece can be demonstrated in the hall."

...

With a light "stretched" sound, Jia Sidao threw a soft bow in his hand and another white ivory chess piece out, which was several feet away and fell to the ground. That's right, it was a throw, not a shot. It was the "torque method" handed over by Chen Dexing to Liao Yingzhong.

"Hahaha, it's really amazing. How could I not have thought of such a simple truth?" Jia Sidao threw the soft bow to Liao Yingzhong beside him, and laughed, "The nephew Qingzhi really has some wonderful ideas. I know that Chen Junzhi also likes the learning of mechanism skills. It seems that it is a skill that is inherited."

Liao Yingzhong smiled from the side and said, "The skills of the mechanism are ultimately some tricks, and my husband can see it."

What Liao Yingzhong said is just the general view of the scholars and officials of the Song Dynasty in this era. The mechanism skills are the path, military skills are also the path, and business and wealth are not as good as the rules. Only articles and classics point directly to the path! The fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, is it afraid that the root of the Chinese sky is so beautiful?

"The path is a path, but it is not under the divine arm!" Jia Sidao held his beard and showed a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, "With this stone launcher, my great Song navy will defeat the Northern Captains in the Shu River!"

The Divine Arm Bow can be said to be a powerful weapon for protecting the country in the Song Dynasty. Jia Sidao actually compared this to the Divine Arm Bow that had been invented by Europeans for more than a thousand years! Moreover, Jia Sidao not only thought of using the Torque Stone Generator for land warfare, but also thought of installing it on a naval military ship.

"The last time I will congratulate you on behalf of my husband!"

"The emperor congratulates you on behalf of your husband!"

The civil servants and generals around him congratulated Jia Sidao loudly. Mongolia had no naval army in Sichuan, but after receiving the surrender of Song general Yang Dayuan and others, they were able to use the surrendered Song army to establish a naval army. The equipment and training were not much different from the regular naval army of the Song Dynasty. They also occupied the upper reaches of the Sichuan River, which was extremely difficult. However, now Chen Dexing offered a "torque stone generator" that was not the Mongolian naval army. In the future, the advantage of the Sichuan River water battle will inevitably belong to the Song army commanded by Jia Sidao!

The torsion stone generator presented by Chen Dexing is indeed a military weapon comparable to the Divine Arm Bow! With this contribution, if Jia Sidao does not support him, it will be too incomparable.

However, Lu Zhaoqi and Liang Chongru present had a little ugly expression - Jia Sidao just called Chen Dexing "Qingzhi nephew"! This is publicly expressing his support for Chen Dexing! Moreover, if the Song army in Yangzhou had this torsion stone generator, it would be a matter of time before the Northern Lu and the lost territory of the two Huai Rivers was defeated, the generals of the two Huai Rivers would have less credit? Who can't get a few officials at that time? Will you be able to go to Jia Sidao for one or two?

The evidence sent by Chen Dexing is indeed a mountain of ironclad evidence!

"Everyone," Jia Sidao's eyes were faint, and he slowly swept across the people in the hall, "But is it a mountain of iron evidence?"

Xia Gui and Li Tingzhi exchanged glances with each other and saluted with their hands. Just as they were about to speak, Liang Chongru interrupted first.

"My husband! Chen Dexing's offering of this stone launcher has indeed been ineffective! This stone launcher is really as Chen Dexing said. It is a field weapon to destroy the Han army of the Northern Barbarians, and it can be used to destroy the infantry of our Song Dynasty! If the Northern Barbarians get it, the day when our Song Dynasty destroys the country is not far away!"
