Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty - Chapter 978

Chapter 978

“Kong Ming, you did a good job. This wooden cow and horse is indeed worthy of the country. The orphan wants you to ask for credit for the emperor. How about entering the solitary shogunate?” Liu Ye actively invited Zhuge Liang.

“Thank you Qin Gong for his kindness, but there is one more thing to show below.” Zhuge Liang said again.

“Oh? Even though Kong Ming brought it, the things he created must be of great use.” Liu Ye smiled.

Zhuge Liang slowly said: “This military weapon must not be tried. The wooden cow and horse can still be used for civilian use in the future, and this thing must be in the hands of the government. Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be endless disasters. Please Qin Gong to withdraw everyone.”

Seeing Zhuge Liang’s such solemn appearance, Liu Ye nodded immediately and said, “Everyone, step back for now.”

Except for Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Guan Hai with Liu Ye, all the guards and craftsmen retreated. Only Zhuge Liang and Ma Jun were still in the courtyard.

“Deheng, go take it out.”

Ma Jun turned around again and took out something, which was covered with linen cloth, and then slowly uncovered it.

“This is… Lian Nu?” Liu Ye’s eyes lit up.

“Yes, this is the Liannu.” Zhuge Liang introduced: “Ordinary Liannu can only shoot three or five arrows, but this kind of Liannu’s crossbow machine can be improved, and it can shoot ten rounds at a time, a steady stream!”

In fact, the Liannu was invented and used very early. The Qin State, which unified the six countries, applied the Liannu ingeniously. Because of the strictness of the Qin method, the bronze crossbow almost reached the standard of automated production.

The reason why Qin was able to cope with the strong Zhao who Hu Fuqis and shoots, Meng Tian led 300,000 Qin troops to expel the Xiongnu from the Hetao area, Qin Nu contributed a lot in it.

“Therefore, a certain named this thing Profit and Loss Liannu.” Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly and smiled.

Liu Ye can probably be sure that this is the prototype of the famous Zhuge Liannu in later generations. According to the “Three Kingdoms·Shu Shu·Zhuge Liang Biography” records: the brightness is longer than ingenuity, the profit and loss are continuous, and the wooden cow is flowing. Deduction of the art of war, making eight formations, is salty. Annotated “Wei Shi Chun Qiu” said: Bright as the eight tasks, the seven precepts, the six fears, and the five fears, all have rules to train the courtiers. It also gains and losses with continuous crossbows, called Yuan Rong, with iron as the arrow, the arrow is eight inches long, and the crossbow is all ten.

The Zhuge Liannu, also known as the Profit and Loss Liannu and Yuan Rong, has an arrow of eight inches in length and ten arrows in one shot. However, it is not small in size and difficult to use by a single soldier. It is mostly used for city defense. It would be nice to attack the city.

“You go up for a test shot.” Liu Ye said to the guards beside him.

A target had already been set up in the open space. The two guards walked dozens of steps away and lifted Zhuge Liannu, and the two of them used their strength to aim Liannu at the target.

emission!

Whoosh whoosh!

The sound of arrows breaking through the air swished, and ten arrows were sent out together. All of them were nailed to the target. The target was directly shot through, and the arrow penetrated the target and shot out. If it was shot on the human body Naturally, it is conceivable that this continuous crossbow is really fierce and unusual.

“Military weapon is really a military weapon!” Liu Ye sighed. Even though he is a master of national martial arts, ordinary bows and arrows can be caught empty-handed. In martial arts, there are empty-handed arrows in order to catch the enemy shot. Hidden weapons such as iron lotus seed and dark green child.

However, Liannu is so fierce that even Lianjiazi can’t catch it. If a bow and arrow are like a rifle, then Liannu is like a machine gun. Who can resist it?

Chinese dynasties and dynasties have a rule, that is, the crossbow cannot be restrained, the power of the crossbow is unparalleled, and even if the peasants pick it up, it may pose a threat to the elite soldiers who have been fighting for a long time. And bows and arrows do not have to be forbidden. Shooting is originally one of the six arts of gentleman, and it is impossible for hunters to use only iron forks instead of bows and arrows, right? Not everyone is Wu Song.

“But this crossbow has a shortcoming.” Zhuge Liang said bluntly: “With ten arrows, it is very difficult to reload. There is no time to replace it on the battlefield.”

Compared with the bow and arrow, the speed of fire and firepower of the continuous crossbow are naturally much stronger, but the loading is a bit troublesome, otherwise the bow and arrow will completely withdraw from the stage of history. The profit and loss continuous crossbow has more powerful firepower than the ordinary continuous crossbow, and it is naturally more troublesome to reload.

Liu Ye didn’t understand the technique of making continuous crossbows, but he thought about it a little bit, and said, “Look at this crossbow machine, can it be made into a detachable type? Usually, more crossbow machines are built, and ten crossbow arrows are placed in one crossbow machine. How about replacing it immediately afterwards?”

This idea originated from the heavy machine guns of later generations. When the heavy machine guns were fired, there was a long string of bullet belts. After the shots, they were replaced with another row. The firepower was endless. I didn’t know that they were killed or injured during World War I. How many European soldiers.

As soon as these words came out, Ma Jun’s eyes lit up: “This…this is simply a genius idea, Qin Gong is a true **** and man!”

“Mr. Kong Ming, Qin Gong, can you… hand over the profit and loss to the next for improvement, so… so promised to be developed!” Ma Jun said excitedly.

“Kong Ming, what do you think?” After all, this profit and loss Liannu is the crystallization of Zhuge Liang’s wisdom. In other words, it is Zhuge Liang’s intellectual property rights. Of course, Liu Ye can’t take it all in one go.

Zhuge Liang said happily: “If it is possible to improve the profits and losses, this is a good thing, why would Liang disagree?”

Liu Ye immediately said to Ma Jun: “In this case, Ma Jun, I will play your Majesty immediately, and appoint you to make improvements to the profit and loss as soon as possible!”

Ma Jun was naturally overjoyed. He was an inventor, and he was very happy to have the opportunity to make improvements to the profits and losses. In the end, he didn’t expect Liu Ye to give him an official title. This is really a joy.

Ma Jun hurriedly thanked Liu Ye, then under the **** of the guards, he went home with the profit and loss.

“The Qin Gong people make the best use of them, and they really have the talent of the hero.” Zhuge Liang praised.

Liu Ye smiled and said: “Kong Ming, the wooden cows and the profit and loss are all raised by you, and you have made great contributions to the court. From today on, you will temporarily serve as the assistant minister and serve the court with your heart.”

Duzhi is specifically responsible for managing the treasury, and is the most powerful part of the cadres. Zhuge Liang was a clean official and was the prime minister of the Shu Han for decades, but he never bought private property. When he died, his family property was only 20 acres of thin fields and a few hundred mulberry trees. Naturally, his cleanliness is evident. Let Zhuge Liang take charge. The treasury complements each other.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ye immediately entrusted him with an important task. Zhuge Liang was immediately moved, and he felt as if he died as a confidant.

“Dong Qin is so serious, does Liang dare not serve his life?”

Liu Ye laughed and squeezed Zhuge Liang’s hand: “The world will be settled soon, and the future will be the era of great governance!”
