Chapter 38: Merit
"What is this?"
Yan Liben is also very good at tool building, but he has a specialization in the art industry, and there is still a big gap compared to Jiang Xingben. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Of course, if you paint, ten Jiang Xingben is not enough for him to fight.
"It seems to be a water drain made by Du Nanyang."
The water drain is also a hydraulic blower, but Lao Zhang did not engage in a skin compression device. Instead, a wooden impeller was added to an iron shaft, and then the air was forced through a pipe.
The instantaneous transceiver device uses the same reduced version of the hydraulic forging hammer on the Diaoyutai area.
As for Du Nanyang mentioned by Jiang Xingben, he was the Han Dynasty Nanyang who guarded Du Shi, was very good at water conservancy, and belonged to one of the few famous ministers who could use water power to improve people's livelihood.
"It's a little different."
As a young craftsman, Yan Lide is not only good at painting, but also a first-class master of the construction master Yu Wenkai. Removing the congenital deficiencies in mathematics, Yan Lide is extraordinary in creating experience.
Hot forging, shaping, polishing, large cuirasses under the action of a hydraulic forging hammer can increase the speed of production. It's another thing to just make a full-body tin can, and it takes a craftsman to pile up the elbow and shoulder joints. However, since ancient times, China has not lacked manpower, and because of the surplus of human resources, many times do not choose tall machinery, just because the cost of employment is lower.
Except for the big workers, although the ordinary craftsmen are not discriminated against by the official, they still look down on the ordinary class after all.
Even if it is a cold door, if you chase the artifact to create a strange skill, you can probably directly sweep it into the historical garbage heap.
To be able to stand in Vanity Fair as a creative person and not fall, often has a strong backstage. At the very least, he was born in a high family.
Yan Lide's grandfather is Yu Wenyong, and there is no need to say much about his eminence. As for Jiang Xingben, his father Jiang Xuan followed Li Yuan Taiyuan to raise troops. With merit to be crowned the county prince of Changdao, compared with Zhang Gongjin after the Xuanwumen incident, the gold content of the county prince of Dingyuan is just like that.
In other words, to be able to leave his name in the history books as a craftsman in a thick book of Chinese history, such a person cannot be a mud-legged turtle, or even a poor family.
From the perspective of Zhenguan Nian, a local tyrant like Lao Zhang, who has a slight family background in his ancestors, no one in the early court, and a businessman in the later stage, it is a cold family that can no longer be cold.
Even if it is the ancestor Lu Ban, he is actually surnamed Ji......
In short, this is a cruel fact that makes a lot of mud legs stupid and naΓ―ve.
Hydraulic hammers and hydraulic blowers are not necessarily stronger than human blowers, and the instantaneous output power may be three to five times that of labor. But the special feature of water power is that it can produce continuously, and it is more stable and balanced than manpower. Although this stable equilibrium is far from what Zhang De expected, it is also much stronger than the hammer of a craftsman.
Dangdang.
Zhang De picked up a cuirass, the Tang Army's combat style did not require such a canned full-body armor. Because the Tang army at this time, even if it is not as stubborn as Hou Junji, when it is at a disadvantage, it can still burst into a wave of long-live charges and win the battlefield victory.
After the destruction of the Turkic royal court, the 200,000 soldiers in the country, any one of them, even if the strength of the leading generals is a little weak, they can still hold on to the enemy.
The most typical is Zhang Gongjin, in terms of leading troops to fight, he is far inferior to Xue Wanche Xue Wanjun, but he has a good relationship with Li Jingwei Chi Gong, and he has been a leader in Zuo Xiaowei, and there are countless elite generals under his hands, so as long as there are no fatal strategic mistakes, it is basically like brushing the frontier barbarians.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please see, this is a new breastplate."
The emperor asked for canned food, but the canned food belonged to the canned food, and in serious large-scale battles, the legions of Middle-earth were often large. The number of regular soldiers in the Great Unification Dynasty was rarely less than 100,000, and the total size of the military was generally above 500,000. Of course, the main force of the battle is the regular soldiers, but if all the regular soldiers are armored, even the great unified dynasty with a population of 50 million and extremely powerful farming technology cannot be maintained.
Finances will go bankrupt.
Jiang Xing's family origins, and after he is a hero of Taiyuan Yuanmou, he still has this knowledge.
picked up a cuirass, saw that the shoulder was lined with cotton silk, and was stunned for a moment: "There are always ten catties." β
"Twelve pounds."
Zhang De nodded, then picked up a caliper and clamped it to the bottom edge of the breastplate, and the vernier marked a scale. Then he gave the reading to Jiang Xingben and Yan Lide to check.
"A tenth of an inch?"
With doubts, Jiang Xingben was a little suspicious, after all, light armor is easy to be shot through by arrows. However, he thought of Wang Zuxian's pancake iron plate again, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"The new batch has been verified." Zhang De stretched out his hand and motioned for a few people to follow. The leaders of the prison came out of their busy schedules, just to see what kind of moths the men in Liangfeng County were going to come out of.
Originally, I didn't have much expectation, but now I have a lot of expectations.
"This is an old-made flying arrow, it can't pierce armor, and the arrow is broken."
The old face of the prisoner was red.
"New Flying Arrows...... Oh, it's the batch of Zhenguan for five years. It also cannot be broken, but the arrow is slightly damaged. β
In front of each breastplate, the date of the experiment, the experimental props, and the results of the experiment are marked.
"It's an eight-ox crossbow."
A crossbow arrow pierces the cuirass directly.
"This is a steel hand crossbow, slightly dented, and not armor-piercing."
The bolts had been compressed into twisted flowers, but there was only a small pit in the breastplate, which had little effect.
"It's bones and maces."
There were huge pits in both breastplates, Jiang Xingben stepped forward and touched it, roughly estimating the extent of the dents, and then said: "When the viscera is injured, the bones are broken." β
Zhang De nodded: "After the live pig was injured, it died in an instant." Then there is the injury report written by the Chao family's children, detailing the internal organs of the hemorrhage......
"Live pigs?"
Jiang Xingben's whole person was shocked.
"A few days ago, a big pig came to the West Mountain that plagued the farmland, and this fangs belonged to the beast." Zhang De said and picked up the fangs, and a leather rope was strung on them, "The young craftsman took it back and played with Erlang." β
Jiang Xingben's eyes lit up, and he was very moved, thinking that he was just a pig's tooth, and it was not a bribe. So he accepted it, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you." β
Accompanying the leaders to inspect, Zhang De was not hypocritical, and rubbed his pocket at the farmhouse next to the Weishui Workshop of the Eighth Year of the Weapons Supervisor Zhenguan.
It is very rich, chickens, ducks and geese must be indispensable, fish, shrimp and turtles naturally have it, there are also a number of mountain delicacies stir-fried in an iron pot, and the wine is naturally wine, plum wine, millet and rice wine together.
After being full of wine and food, Lao Zhang gave each of the leaders a shopping card - China Resources Exchange Ticket.
", you are conscientious and conscientious for your worries, and I will definitely say good things to Your Majesty."
"The young craftsman is serious. If there is no young craftsman to carry out the public, how can there be a chance to show his strength? β
The meaning of the two nonsense sentences is actually very simple, as a leader, Jiang Xingben, who eats people with a short mouth and soft hands, said that he will definitely explain to the big boss that you have made a great contribution. As a trickster, Lao Zhang naturally said that all these special things are only under the care of the leadership.
All in all, very harmonious and warm.
After that, when it comes to meritorious deeds, Jiang Xingben and their knighthood are unnecessary, and the addition of officials is certain. Even if you don't increase your official position, at least you have to give a promise, how many years later, whoever will step down, this position is for you.
As for Lao Zhang, his promotion is not something that this group of ordinary bigwigs can control. Jane is in the emperor's heart, and no one dares to do it. Jiang Xingben They know this, Zhang De knows this, Zhang De knows Jiang Xingben they know, Jiang Xingben they also know Zhang De knows they know, but Zhang De is still very humble and listens to the teachings of their group of elders very respectfully.
Some of the experiences in life, Lao Zhang grasped quite broadly at this time. At least for now, it's still wide.
Li Dong asked for canned iron food in order to defend the Jingshi, and the number of canned iron food would not be in tens of thousands, which is estimated to be thousands. With the quantity and quality of the garrison in Guanluo, it was originally the elite of the soldiers, and then the elite infantry soldiers were drawn and stuffed into cans to form an army of their own, not to mention the offensive force, the duty of guarding Gyeonggi was enough.
As for the day when the battle to defend the capital took place, which lasted for a year and a half, this shows that Datang should have died early.
Canned food is useless to Lao Zhang, and it is a toy for the emperor. However, the cuirass, which can be mass-produced and equipped on a large scale, is a credit.
As the most capable emperor in history, Li Dong can finally find an excuse at this time to give Zhang De a big red envelope and show the Shandong Shi clan: This is just me. (To be continued.) )
