Chapter 436: Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, Wooden Niu and Flowing Horse(1/2)
"Zhuge Crossbow?!"
"Wooden ox and horse?!"
Qin Huali and a group of Mohist disciples watched the drawings displayed by Huang Yueying, which was incredible.
A woman who was not a disciple of the Mo family actually developed such a complex drawing of the Mo family.
Qin Huali looked at Huang Yueying, with a little cautious tone, and asked carefully: "Are you one of the previous Mohist geniuses after me?"
Qin Huali has reason to think that Huang Yueying was a Mohist master in later generations.
The Mohist master was the leader of the Mohist school in various periods and was proficient in the Mohist arts.
Huang Yueying shook her head: "I just happened to get the classics of the Mohist school. After studying it, I improved the Mohist school's mechanism."
“!!!”
The Mo family disciples present, men and women cry.
They followed the Bird and Wali to learn the Mohist arts. The most talented ones, but they learned the Bird and Wali to 70% or 80% of the Bird and Wali to 70% of the ability.
Huang Yueying became a self-taught person and had developed the Zhuge crossbow, the wooden ox and the flowing horse, which was still above their teachers.
It turns out that they are just mortals.
The birds are slippery and want to speak but stop.
Seeing that Huang Yueying was amazingly talented, he originally intended to recruit Huang Yueying to join the Mo family, but after thinking about it carefully, he had nothing to teach Huang Yueying. Huang Yueying's improved Mohist mechanism might be more than the bird's slippery.
Perhaps, only Mozi, the founder of the Mo family, is qualified to accept Huang Yueying as his apprentice.
Qin Huali carefully pondered Huang Yueying's three drawings, namely "Zhuge Crossbow", "Muqiu", and "Flowing Horse".
Qin Huali asked: "Zhuge crossbow is a weapon, and what is the function of wooden ox and flowing horse?"
Huang Yueying replied: "Mucao and flowing horse are tools for transporting food and grass. The longer the distance is, the more manpower is consumed, the more animal power is needed. If you fight within a hundred miles and send one thousand troops, maybe less than five hundred people can transport food. If you fight within a thousand miles and tens of miles and send one thousand troops, it will take three thousand people, five thousand people, or even tens of thousands of people to transport food. The food will be consumed greatly on the way, and the people will be in trouble and money."
"This does not include the terrain. If you attack Bashu from Guanzhong, you will pass through Qinling Mountains and Jiange, and the march will be slower, and there will be more people who need to transport grain."
"Mucao and flowing horse can load more food, consume less manpower and animal power, and in various terrains, it is unobstructed and can avoid a lot of labor."
Huang Yueying's explanation made the Mo family disciples even more uproar.
If such a clever instrument is used in military strategists, its value will be self-evident!
Another Mo family disciple asked Huang Yueying, "What is the difference between a wooden ox and a flowing horse?"
Huang Yueying replied: "The wooden ox looks like a cow, it is bulky and can carry a large amount of food and grass, but it is slower. The flowing horse looks like a horse, it is light in shape and carries less food and grass, but it is faster. According to needs, dispatch wooden ox or flowing horse, which is the biggest difference between the wooden ox and the flowing horse."
"So that's it, but there is a serious flaw, that is, how to make the wooden ox move and the horse move."
Bird Wali also imagined similar mechanisms, but never solved the most fundamental problem - motivation.
Huang Yueying put forward his own opinion: "The reason why people and livestock have strength is because they eat and drink water. If the wooden ox and horse want to move, they also need something to provide energy for it."
"It's reasonable!"
Qin Huali's eyes lit up. This problem has really troubled Qin Huali for a long time.
Qin Huali once imagined a motivated Mohist beast like Zhuque, but the most critical step was not solved, that is, where does the energy come from?
Huang Yueying took out a special stone: "This is a special stone I discovered in this world. It can store true qi, and this thing can provide true qi for wooden ox and horses. What we need to do is to try to make the mechanism of wooden ox and horses run through the horses run through the horses."
The Mo family disciples present were in an uproar again.
Huang Yueying's discovery may make the practicality of the Mohist arts a higher level!
Especially the birds and slippery, I was even more excited.
The moss discovered by Huang Yueying may be the key to his research on the Mohist organ beasts!
In a sense, wooden ox and horses are also considered to be a kind of Mohist beast, but they have no combat power and their main purpose is to transport food and grass.
"Zhuge crossbows require soldiers to use their true energy to activate various clever gears and mechanisms to increase the lethality of crossbow arrows."
"Every time you use the Zhuge crossbow, you don't consume much true energy, but the Zhuge crossbow soldiers must perfectly control the true energy in order to activate the gears and mechanisms."
Huang Yueying also analyzed the exquisiteness of Zhuge's crossbow.
"It's wonderful, it's wonderful. Although the Zhuge crossbow is not as big as the wooden ox and flowing horse, its design is more exquisite and complex, and it also contains the Qimen Dunjia, which is more difficult to manufacture."
The birds are slim and slim.
Huang Yueying's Mohist arts amazed even the most beautiful things about the birds.
Especially the Zhuge crossbow and the design of the wooden ox and flowing horse is quite exquisite.
In recent years, following Zhuge Liang to farm in Wolonggang, Huang Yueying has potential to study the Mohist mechanism and has developed special props with Zhuge Liang - the Zhuge crossbow manufacturing drawings, wooden cow manufacturing drawings, and flowing horse manufacturing drawings.
In addition to using special ink stone to provide energy, Huang Yueying's Mohist art also included Zhuge Liang's integration into Qimen Dunjia, which was something that even Qin Huali could not have thought of.
If it weren't for the teacher of Qin Huali, it might be that Huang Yueying would be the teacher.
There are many successive stories and specialties in art. Huang Yueying and Zhuge Liang worked together to improve the Mohist system techniques, which have exceeded the imagination of Qin Huali.
Huang Yueying said: "The lord needs at least five hundred pairs of Zhuge crossbows and three thousand wooden oxen flowing horses... If there are hundreds of thousands of troops, tens of thousands of wooden oxen flowing horses... There are too many wooden oxen flowing horses, so we will definitely not be able to make them. Priority is given to building Zhuge crossbows. Craftsmen who build Zhuge crossbows and wooden ox flowing horses must be loyal and reliable."
"Miss Huang, I will gather reliable disciples from Momen to create Zhuge crossbows and wooden ox and flowing horses."
Bird and slippery clarity understands how much role it can play when using troops once Zhuge crossbows and wooden ox and flowing horses are made on a large scale.
Needless to say, the Zhuge crossbow has obvious power.
The wooden ox and flowing horse is a good thing. With tens of thousands of wooden ox and flowing horses, it can reduce the strong men who transport grain and the loss on the way. The Xia army can even launch a western expedition without worrying too much about logistics.
Unfortunately, the shortage of wooden ox and flowing horses is too large, and the number of senior disciples of the Mohist school is limited. It takes time to accumulate to produce tens of thousands of wooden ox and flowing horses.
Therefore, Huang Yueying ordered the disciples of the Mo family to give priority to creating Zhuge crossbows with obvious results.
The first batch of Zhuge crossbows, the number was 500 pairs.
"Moshi, this object may be the key to studying the real Mohist organ beast...it can even realize the teacher's grand idea..."
Qin Huali took over the special material "Moshi" discovered by Huang Yueying, and had the idea of continuing to study the Mohist organ beasts.
In addition, Qin Huali thought of a grand idea from his teacher Mo Zi.
Huang Yueying was arranged by Zhang Hua to enter the Ministry of Works to manage craftsmen in the territory, produce various equipment, armor, and buildings, and have the right to mobilize the children of the Mohist family.
The Mohist family had Zhang Hua's funds, which was equivalent to a royal craftsman, so they naturally had to serve.
"After producing Zhuge crossbows, you have to recruit elite troops to be familiar with manipulating Zhuge crossbows."
Huang Yueying tried his best to help Zhuge Liang defeat his old enemy Sima Yi.
Historically, because of the weak national strength of Shu Han, Zhuge Liang went to Qishan six times and failed to complete the strategy of Longzhong, and eventually died in Wuzhangyuan. Huang Yueying did not want Zhuge Liang to repeat the same mistake.
Fortunately, Zhuge Liang is now the advantageous side, but Sima Yi's military strength is not as strong as Zhuge Liang.
But as a virtuous supporter, Huang Yueying helped Zhuge Liang improve his chances of winning as much as possible.
Huang Yueying is proficient in Mohist mechanisms and is quite good at mathematics. He knows that even if he has an 80% chance of winning, he still has the danger of failure.
Huang Yueying increased her chances of winning to 99.99% as much as possible, and was infinitely close to 100%, so she felt relieved.
...
When the Mo family children in Chang'an City were busy producing Zhuge crossbows, the city defended by the Xiliang princes coalition forces in the Hexi Corridor was captured by the Qin army like black clouds.
Team after team of black armored Qin troops, wearing persistent and sharp attacking into the city, black clouds were crushing the city and were about to destroy it!
The beacons of Zhangye City were connected by the sky, and the Qin army defeated all the princes of Xiliang and swept across Hexi.
boom!
A prince of Xiliang was hit in the abdomen by Li Xin with a punch. The terrifying impact force shocked the prince's internal organs and almost killed him!
"vomit……"
The princes of Xiliang had their eyes protruded, and they felt that their internal organs were shifting, and they felt extremely uncomfortable. They curled up and struggled on the ground like cooked shrimps.
Li Xin's battle boots stepped on the faces of the princes of Xiliang, making the face of the princes of Xiliang almost distorted.
Li Xin's tone was solemn: "This is the end of opposing our Daqin."
Li Xin ruthlessly trampled on the dignity of the princes of Xiliang without mercy.
Li Xin was one of the Qin generals who participated in the sweeping of the six kingdoms. If he had not been defeated by Xiang Yan, the last famous general of Chu when he destroyed Chu, that is, Xiang Yu's grandfather, and eventually, Qin Wangzheng sent veteran Wang Jian to destroy Chu and unify the world, then Li Xin might have become a famous general who has been famous in history.
Because of this incident, Li Xin became even more cruel.
He didn't believe that he would lose to Xiang Yan again.
"We are willing to surrender!"
Another place in the city, another prince of Xiliang surrendered to Meng Tian and Meng Yi, who commanded the Golden Fire Cavalry.
Meng Tian and Meng Yi's brothers' Golden Fire Cavalry wiped out all the lords of Xiliang, which were powerful to Xiliang.
The King of Qin has become another great prince at the hegemony level, and its power has been achieved. It is too late for the other princes of Xiliang to resist stubbornly.
"The coalition of princes of Xiliang has collapsed and finally returned to Guanzhong. Guanzhong is the place where dragons rise. With the cavalry of Xiliang, you can drive straight into Guanzhong, and it is easy to get back to the front."
When Meng Tian saw the destruction of the Xiliang princes' coalition forces, he knew that the Qin army would soon return to Guanzhong.
