Chapter 188: Righteous Son

"Han Changlue died on this sling!" Wang Wenzuo said coldly: "At that time, he was standing next to me, splattering blood on my face, and a large piece of his head was deeply sunk into the temple on the right side, and his head was like a rotten

Watermelon!" He glanced at everyone, and everyone was silent.

"I mentioned Han Changlue just to tell you that although this sling looks like a toy, it can kill people. Even if you are wearing armor, you will lose half your life if you are hit. If you use lead bullets, you will be killed.

It's not impossible. And this thing is different from bows and arrows. Even if a half-year-old child is good at shooting, he can kill rabbits with a drawable bow, so he won't be able to go into battle. And this sling is even for a woman and child.

As long as the throw is accurate, the power is no different from that of an adult male."

As Wang Wenzuo said, unlike crossbows, torsion spring cannons and other projectile weapons, the sling does not store potential energy by deforming the object to launch ammunition, but continuously increases the rotation speed of the stone projectile by rotating the rope, and finally suddenly

Release the rope and let the stone bomb fly out at high speed along the tangential direction. The advantage is that it does not require much strength on the user. Even a half-year-old child can use the sling to throw a 200-gram stone bomb at 50 meters/second.

The muzzle velocity is no less than the arrow speed of a high-quality single bow. Considering that the weight of stone bullets far exceeds that of arrows, its power exceeds that of most arrows. Its power is enough to kill anyone wearing leather armor or linen armor.

For adults, if you use higher density lead bullets, the power will only be greater.

More importantly, the sling consumes almost no physical energy when it is fired. An archer using a 120-pound war bow will be exhausted if he shoots dozens of arrows in a row, but if you ask a slinger to throw thousands of arrows from morning to night, it will still be enough.

It will not be exhausted. The fatal flaw of the sling is that it has extremely high requirements on the user. The hit distribution is a metaphysics. If you are not careful, you will hit your own people. It is too difficult to find enough skilled slingers.

.

"What do you mean, Sanlang?" Yuan Aolie asked with some confusion.

"Zen Master Huicong, what do these children need to learn in the monastery?"

"This -" Huicong quickly replied: "Mainly reading, writing, arithmetic, and some Buddhist scriptures, The Analects of Confucius, and Spring and Autumn Annals."

"Practice in martial arts requires military preparation, not to mention that Baekje is in troubled times today!" Wang Wenzuo said: "Let's spend half of the time practicing martial arts, and let them practice more slings, bows and arrows, spears, and cavalry.

You also need to spend time learning the technique!”

"You still need to teach these boys these things?" He Bayong said anxiously: "Sanlang, these are all Baekje people!"

"So what?" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "Can we still stay here for the rest of our lives? These boys are the future pillars of the Xiongjin Governor's Mansion, so they will naturally have to work harder. He Ba, your riding skills are among the best among us.

Yes, when you have time, you come to the temple to be a riding master, Cui Hongdu, you come to be a bow master, Shen Faseng, you come to be a lance master, Gu Cihang, you come to be a sword and shield master, we take turns!" Seeing everyone looking at each other, but not speaking.

, Wang Wenzuo smiled and said: "Why, you don't want to?"

"It's not that I don't want to!" Cui Hongdu, who was the oldest among the people, said with a smile: "I just don't think it is necessary. To put it bluntly, many of our spear and archery skills are passed down from our families, and they are passed down to these people who can't hit them with eight poles.

What a shame, guy!"

"Then you just pick a few suitable ones and adopt them as adopted sons. Isn't it impossible to win?"

"Adopt a foster child?"

"That's right, it's just a fake thing!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "Do you think this is okay?"

Everyone exchanged glances, and their gazes gradually became intense. At that time, the concept of clan was prevalent, and Hu Feng was popular in the north. It was extremely common for wealthy families in the north to adopt adopted sons to strengthen their power, and the boundaries between parents and adopted sons were not as clear as in later generations. Wang Wenzuo This suggestion immediately scratched everyone's itch.

"Sanlang, will it violate the imperial court's taboo if we accept Baekje's adopted son?" Liu An asked in a low voice because he was more mature and prudent.

"What Wu Lang is considering is that I will first consult the Governor's Mansion, but I think the problem should not be big. After all, each of us can only adopt three or five adopted sons at most, and our official position is too low."

"Sanlang is right!" Zhang Junyan said with a smile: "Actually, there is another benefit to adopting an adopted son, which Sanlang hasn't mentioned yet!"

"What are the benefits?" Master Shen asked.

"We have been fighting in Baekje for so long, and everyone has gained some benefits, but after all, Baekje is alone overseas. It is a big problem to bring these benefits back. There are so many pairs of eyes staring at us. If we are not careful, , but it’s Po Tian’s fault! If we adopt one or two adopted sons, wouldn’t many things become simpler?”

"That's right, why didn't I think of this!" Shen Faseng high-fived and laughed. Everyone also understood and applauded one after another. It turns out that how the Qiu Ba people get back their legal and illegal trophies has been a big problem throughout the ages. Long live Sui Dynasty, Youhou Junji of the Tang Dynasty and Lan Yu of Ming Dynasty all suffered heavy losses in the spoils of war. But for Wang Wenzuo and the others, the difficulty was much greater, because they had to take a boat to return home, and they carried it with them when they boarded and disembarked. It was easy to discover the property, not to mention that gold and silver coins were still rare at that time. The property they were given was mainly copper coins, silk cloth, utensils, etc. These things were not small in size, and it would be difficult to get through. And if you have a Baekje adopted son, you can store it temporarily and then slowly transport it back with a merchant traveler, which will give you a lot more room for operation.

"It's good that Jun Yan can think of this level!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "It's just that it's a little shallow!"

"Oh?" Zhang Junyan was a little unconvinced: "Is there anything else I haven't thought of?"

"Everyone!" Wang Wenzuo did not answer directly: "What do you think is the greatest wealth here?"

The debate broke out immediately. Some said it was gold and silver, some said it was gems, some said it was pearls, mink, and so on. Finally, all eyes focused on Wang Wenzuo. Wang Wenzuo smiled and gave his own answer: "It's land. With soil comes wealth. Land is the mother of all wealth!"

"Sanlang is right!" Zhang Junyan was a little unconvinced: "But we will leave here sooner or later, and we can't take the land away, so what does this have to do with us?"

"The capital officials are in Chang'an, does that prevent them from having farms in Hedong, Hebei, and Jianghuai?"

"Yes, but Hedong, Hebei, and Jianghuai are all under the rule of the Tang Dynasty—" As soon as Zhang Junyan finished speaking, he realized that Baekje was also the Governor's Palace of Xiongjin in the Tang Dynasty, and he couldn't help but be speechless.

"I know you think that the Xiongjin Governor's Mansion is still different from the mainland of the Tang Dynasty. I also know this, but it depends on man-made things!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "Now I will tell you my method. You guys can listen and see if it works. no!"
