This torsion-based stone-pitting machine consists of a solid and heavy rectangular frame on the ground, an upright ejection rod, and two sturdy pillars equipped with cross beams on the top.』ΩΩ pen                                                                                                  

『BiQuGe.

The lower end of the CN ejection rod is inserted in a tightly twisted horizontal rope. The rope is tied to both ends of the rectangular frame, which is located just below the support frame. Usually the rope makes the ejection rod tightly support the beam on the support frame. The top of the ejection rod is usually made into the shape of a spoon, and sometimes a leather ejection bag is placed at the top of the ejection rod.

When ejecting, first use the winch to pull the ejection rod to a close horizontal position, and then put rocks or other types of bullet bodies in a "spoon" or leather bullet bag. When the trigger device is used to loosen the winch rope, the ejection rod returns to the vertical position with great force and hits the cross beam. The inertia force generated will bounce the bullet body toward the target in an arc-shaped track. This stone thrower is a powerful siege weapon. It can pop up stones of more than 100 kilograms of stones at a distance of up to seven or eight hundred steps, and of course it can also shoot smaller stones like hail.

The large crossbow cannons are powerful, but they are also very bulky and have a slow firing range, so each army is equipped with only three units. Zhao Bing originally wanted to use it as a killer weapon in the most critical moments, but now the enemy has already launched the coverage of rockets and rushed to the front of the formation to gather and form a shield to break through forcibly. At this time, the large crossbow cannon came in handy.

‘Bang, bang…’ The stones falling from the sky hit the shields raised by the enemy soldiers. The shields based on hardwood and cowhide blocked the arrows, but they could not block the stones falling from the sky. They smashed the shields and then hit the enemy soldiers. Under the huge inertia, they either died or injured. The stones shot by the three large crossbows were hundreds of fast, and they immediately disrupted the formation that had just assembled by the Yuan army.

"The target remains unchanged, continue shooting!" Zhao Bing ordered again when he saw that the Yuan soldiers were severely injured, but had not lost their ability to attack.

When the Yuan army gathered again under the command of the officers, under the rainy arrows and small crossbows, preparing to attack again, another wave of stone bullets fell from the sky, causing them to get into chaos again. It was no longer possible for them to gather again for the third time. The soldiers were scared by the successive blows, and no one had ever implemented the officer's orders and began to flee in all directions regardless of the harsh military law.

‘Woooo…’ The horn sounded again, but this time it was no longer an order for attack, but became a signal of retreat. The enemy soldiers in front of the formation ran back quickly after hearing this, and less than 10% of them could return to the formation.

"Your Majesty, Commander Zhuang requests to send troops to pursue him!" Guan Tongshou reported at this time.

"Forget it, don't chase the enemy! What do you think? "It's sunset at this moment. Zhao Bing looked at the enemy's formation and pondered for a moment.

"I also think it is not appropriate to attack!" Zhang Shijie said, "I see that the enemy's formation is not chaotic, and the advancement and retreat are orderly. Furthermore, our army is all infantry. If we attack, the enemy will be surrounded by cavalry detours from the flanks. If the two armies fight in a melee, our army's crossbows will no longer be used, so we will inevitably suffer losses."

"Shishou is worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield. If you can see so many tricks, I still need to learn more from Shushou!" Zhao Bing bowed and smiled.

"How dare I!" Zhang Shijie said he didn't dare, but his face smiled.

"Shishou is too humble, please give me advice at that time!" Zhao Bing laughed in his heart. It seems that it makes sense that he can give him a pot of ** soup.

"Your Majesty worked hard for a day, so please go back to the palace to rest. Leave the remaining trivial matters to me!" Zhang Shijie was of course full of joy and asked for his order.

"Then there will be a general manager of Lao Shu!" If you say that you are not tired, it would be fake. If you think about it, it is not your own leader to deal with these military affairs, so you will follow the opportunity to respond...

The next day, Zhao Bing woke up early, but still felt sleepy. He heard that there was no abnormal movement outside and breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried last night that the Mongols would attack at night. It seemed that they were not alive, but they could not sleep anymore. He asked someone to come in to wash and change clothes, but the report of yesterday's war was delivered before a cup of tea was finished. Yesterday's battle, the Yuan army suffered a considerable injury. Four thousand-man teams were basically damaged, and hundreds of generals of all sizes were damaged. The Song army suffered more than 400 casualties, and most of the soldiers were injured by the stray arrows. The losses were minor. However, due to the continuous shooting, the crossbows continued to be replaced and maintained. In addition, they were stationed outside the city for several days and fought for several more battles. The soldiers were very tired.

"Issuing an order to order the central army to take over the East Gate defense and the rear army to enter the city to rest and recuperate!" Zhao Bing thought that since he was training the troops, he would take turns to practice. It is difficult to find a good training like So Du, so he issued an order.

"Your Majesty, although the rear army has fought hard, it has not yet damaged its vitality and can still fight again!" Zhuang Gongwang, the rotating military department, did not start writing immediately, but asked.

"We can't let the rear army establish all the credits, and everyone should also enjoy equal benefits!" Zhao Bing said with a smile. He knew that Mr. Zhuang hoped that his brothers could practice more and mature as soon as possible, but in fact, there was no intention of competing for merit.

"Your Majesty is joking again. I have no selfish intentions in it!" Zhuang Gongwang couldn't see that Your Majesty was joking with him, but as a minister, he couldn't do this, and he said seriously.

"Haha, why do you have to do this? If we fight Quanzhou, we are like stabbing a hornet's nest. How could Kublai Khan let us go? He will definitely send troops to chase and fight hard. Some will fight in the future. Most of our generals of the infantry army have not gone through a big battle and have to go to the battlefield to hone their experience in future combat. They will be tigers when they are exempted from training, and they will become rats when they go to the battlefield!" Zhao Bing smiled and said, "So I have made such arrangements and I will never be despised by my brother. Besides, since I landed on the shore, the army has been stationed in the East City. We should also rest and take a break and go to the city to see it. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of time for me to come back!"

"Your Majesty's actions have profound meanings, but I am stupid and unable to understand them!" Zhuang Duke Zhe said after hearing this.

"This matter will be presided over by the Shushu. Remember to switch to defense and strictly prevent the Yuan army from attacking and breaking through our defense line!" Zhao Bing reminded again.

"I have written it down and I will draw an order immediately!" Zhuang Gongwang immediately picked up his pen and wrote it. Zhao Bing read it and reviewed it, and immediately sent it to Zhang Shijie.

After finishing the important matter, Xiaohuangmen had already delivered breakfast, a bowl of meat porridge, two eggs, and two cooked cakes. While eating, Zhao Bing looked through the official documents sent yesterday. When he saw the consumption and replenishment after entering the city, he was a little unable to eat. Needless to say, the wealth of Quanzhou is rich, and the abundant supplies also out of his imagination. If he wanted to raise some copper and iron and find some rare things in Qiongzhou, he not only had to mobilize the power of the entire island, but also had to smuggle the affairs bureau at high prices to get it done.

Every time he went to war, Zhao Bing felt so painful. He spent money like a flow of money. Even after the war, the replenishment and consumption caused him a headache. Some things could not be bought even if they were paid. The two yamen of Duzuoyuan and the Imperial Supervisor were even more careful. They knew that the materials they were using were less and less, but they didn't know when they would be replenished. However, they also had to ensure that military supplies were used, and they could not leave some back-ups to prevent them from using them at that time.

It was a different scene in Quanzhou. It was a matter of being short of money for the local tyrants, and it was quite convenient to replenish materials. At that time, Zhao Bing went to Qiongzhou to serve in the army for only 20,000 or 30,000 people, but he was worried that he would not even have enough food to eat, so he had to rush to buy a large amount of grain in Guangzhou, for fear of causing a shortage of grain. This time, there were 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and generals in Quanzhou, which doubled the number, but their arrival not only did not cause food shortage, but even the price of grain did not fluctuate. However, before the attack on the city and closed the city for seven days, all supplies could not be in and out. There were 200,000 people living in Quanzhou City, but there was still no shortage of food, which shows how rich the reserves were.

Of course, tens of thousands of troops are not as simple as eating. The consumption of firewood, rice, oil, salt and other materials is amazing, but the army can do whatever they want. There is no need to worry about using it out today and not being able to buy it tomorrow. And the most rare copper, iron, cowhide, nitrate, medicinal materials, and livestock in Qiongzhou are all within easy reach. Anyway, as long as you have money, you will not have to worry about not being able to buy what you want. Although there is a report from the Bureau of Affairs in advance, the market supply is sufficient to Zhao Bing, a modern person's imagination.

"Oh, I don't want to leave anymore!" Zhao Bing was not only deeply moved after reading it, because he knew very well that fighting is a matter of burning money. War is a comprehensive national strength competition based on economic strength, and economic mobilization is a bridge for the transformation of economic strength into national defense strength. Qiongzhou is still too poor.

As the saying goes: When a cannon fires, there will be tens of taels of gold. With the development of society, war's dependence on the economy deepens, and the destruction of the economy gradually increases. In primitive society, a few wooden sticks and a few stones can be used to start the war. When it comes to slave society, bronze weapons have already begun, and the cost of war will rise as the water rises, so we have to consider whether there is still surplus food at home. In feudal society, there is a saying that before the troops move, food and grass will take the lead. With just one family, a region will be difficult to support large-scale wars. Not to mention modern society, if you don't have money, you should be cowardly and don't even dare to fight!

Therefore, as the ruler, while implementing war to safeguard his political status and seeking economic benefits, he will inevitably pay astonishing economic costs. If the economic losses of war or underestimate the economic risks of war will lead to strategic decision-making mistakes, and even the ability to bear national economies, the national economy will experience serious turmoil or even complete collapse, and the consequences will be unpredictable. Carrying out research on the damage assessment of war economy, predict and analyze the possible damage results of war, and calculating the maximum tolerance of the national economy for war will become a topic that strategic decision makers have to face.

As Zhao Bing knows, the United States has long established a war experience laboratory, and its key task is to focus on the simulation research of transforming the potential of the national economy into war capabilities. Before the outbreak of the Iraq War, the United States Land Company estimated that the economic mobilization cost was as high as 3 trillion US dollars. Through computer simulation, it presented the real-life mobilization steps of strategic resources in the process of raising, storing, turning over and transport, especially deducing the container cost required for loading and unloading military supplies in the desert, laying the foundation for the visual prediction of the US military's actual mobilization cost. It can be said that a country's economic mobilization capacity will directly affect the operation and implementation benefits of its combat or non-war military operations.

Economic mobilization simulation is to build a model of the demand for combat guarantee resources for wars of different scales, study the regions and resources that need to be mobilized, simulate the operation mode of economic mobilization systems at different levels, analyze the problems and shortcomings of the national economic mobilization system, and propose solutions and improvement measures. As the dependence of wars and emergencies on the economy continues to increase, the status and role of economic mobilization is also increasing day by day. However, economic mobilization involves many military and local units, and the coordinated organization is complex and the cost is huge.

After the outbreak of the Kosovo War, NATO troops, with the United States, used military means to attack Yugoslavia military targets, also bombed dozens of cities, enterprises, and national facilities in turn, directly causing their economic losses of over 100 billion US dollars, making the Yugoslavia economy beyond the affordable range and achieving the maximum benefits with the minimum loss. Coincidentally, the funds required for military strikes against extremist organizations were evaluated and calculated, believing that air strikes were relatively safe and economic choices and would not put too much pressure on the fiscal budget, providing an important basis for deciding to attack terrorist bases. In addition, before Russia started the war against Georgia, the Russian State Duma Budget Committee also calculated the required combat funds.

"We have to calculate the calculations in the future!" Zhao Bing thought about it and thought that if a big family like the Bald Eagle and the Polar Bear had to make careful calculations when fighting a small battle, he would not be a big man as soon as he gathered a team of straw. Although he had thought about this before, he had only made a rough calculation. He felt that he would not lose money in a battle and would make a profit. He did not study in depth how much it would cost to fight a modern war? Can the national economy bear it? He did not consider direct economic losses in war, indirect economic losses in war and human cost losses in war, etc.

‘Dang, dang…’ After reflection, Zhao Bing couldn’t eat anymore and gently tapped the plate with chopsticks to think about his thoughts.

"Stop, don't disturb the official family!" Seeing His Majesty constantly knocking on the dishes and serving the small yellow door, he wanted to go forward to ask, but Wang De called him.

"This is the official family..." According to the custom of the country, they think that the food is not suitable for the meal or the food is not full. Even if only beggars knock on their bowls and beg for food along the street, it is extremely rude. If outsiders see it, wouldn't it be a joke? Xiaohuangmen said softly in confusion.

"I'm like a beggar, right?" Although he said a little, Zhao Bing heard it and took it over and said.

"The officials, they are ignorant, don't listen to them!" Don't say that the emperor is begging for food, even if he goes to beg for food, Wang De was startled and smiled and explained, and then turned to a few little yellow men who served him. "If you don't have the eyesight, can't you tell that the officials are thinking about it? They both disturbed the officials and talk nonsense. Can you see that you are going to be scornful!"

"For the official, you will know how to spare your life!" The little yellow sects were so scared that they knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly. If they said that His Majesty would have skinned people in the past, they would definitely sneer, but since His Majesty personally broke Shi Si's bones, everyone believed it, and anyone who believed it would be anxious.
