Chapter 702: The Prison Journey (I)

Li Chengqian knew Feng An's purpose very well, and was anxious when asked by the old man, so he said bluntly: "Father, he just wants a ship, but I don't even have the main fleet equipped now, how can I give it to him!" ”

Li Er had no concept of the new ship at the beginning, so he naturally couldn't figure out Feng An's intentions, so he asked Li Chengqian to come over and ask.

Now that everything is on the table, he naturally has his own way of dealing with it, and he just waved his hand at the question raised by Li Chengqian, signaling that he doesn't care.

"What have you been tinkering with lately?" After putting Feng An's affairs aside, Li Er continued to toss his son.

As long as the matter of the ship is no longer mentioned, Li Chengqian will answer all questions, and the things that are being tinkered with now will also be equipped with the 16 guards in the future, and he will have to talk to Li Er sooner or later, and now that the old man asked, Comrade Li also got down the slope and said: "I got a trench car, and I was planning to try it in the past two days." ”

"What is a trench car? Let's talk about it carefully. "As long as he hears something related to the war, Li Er is very interested, so as soon as Li Chengqian mentions it, he comes to the spirit.

"Father, why don't we go and have a look? This thing doesn't have a concept just by saying. ”

"Cheng, it just so happens that there is nothing to do today, so I will follow you to the prison to have a look." Li Er calculated the time and nodded in agreement with Li Chengqian's arrangement.

The rest of the time is to wait for the old man to change his clothes and recruit people.

is different from Li Chengqian, he is a prince, it is enough to go out and bring a few guards from the night charm, but Li Er's goal is too big, if he wants to travel, someone must first clean up the scene, or be vigilant, and then he will officially travel, even if it is a white fish dragon suit, then it is necessary to arrange the guarded manpower in advance.

Half an hour later, Li Er, who was dressed in civilian clothes, came out of the apse and pulled the manna hall out of the middle hall of Li Chengqian, who was a little bored.

"Huh? When did Changle come? Why don't you see anyone? As soon as he got out of the old man's study, Li Er saw Changle's bicycle parked outside, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"Father, I rode this here." Li Chengqian said with some embarrassment.

Changle's car is women's, and it is very beautifully decorated by the little girl, and now if she doesn't ride those decorations but doesn't take them off, Li Chengqian will look a little sissy if she rides it.

"I just said why did you come so quickly today......" Li Er glared back at Li Chengqian, a little helpless about his behavior of exploiting loopholes.

However, as Lao Tzu, how could Li Er have no way to take his son.

So, on the next trip, there was a scene of Li Chengqian pedaling a bicycle and following behind the old man's carriage, maybe this is the end of being clever.

But fortunately, the general prison is in the imperial city, and it will not be long before he leaves the Taiji Palace, otherwise Li Chengqian will have to vomit blood from tiredness.

"Chen Liu Min has seen Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince." Faced with Li Er's sudden arrival, Old Man Liu looked a little nervous. After all, no matter how high the grade of this old man is, it can't change the fact that he is a craftsman.

"Flat, I heard from the prince that you will be the supervisor and are trying to make an ordnance that can quickly pass through the trenches and moats, so come and see, you don't have to be nervous." Li Er also knew that his royal presence had huge psychological pressure on the following courtiers who were not often met, and he was very considerate and directly explained his intentions.

"Back to Your Majesty, that is a trench car, developed by His Royal Highness the Prince, and he will not dare to take credit as a prisoner!" Li Chengqian was standing on the side, and Liu Min didn't dare to take all the credit for himself.

"Even if he develops it, he will be a prisoner, and I am not confused, meritorious is meritorious." Anyway, Li Er still affirmed the credit of the general as a prisoner first, paused for a moment and then asked, "Is there a real thing in this trench?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, the actual thing of the trench is in the backyard, but if you want to test it, you need to go outside the city." After a period of buffering, Liu Min's nervous mood relaxed a little, and his answers to questions began to be organized.

"Then let's go check it out first."

Li Er, who has fought an old war, is not comparable to those emperors who grew up in the deep palace, and whether an ordnance is good or not does not necessarily need to see the effect of the experiment. In many cases, just look at the appearance to know whether it is practical in war.

A moment later, Li Eryi and his entourage were led by Liu Min to the backyard where they would be imprisoned, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw something like a ladder parked in the middle of the courtyard.

It is said that this ladder-like thing is called a car because it has four wheels, but the front two wheels are particularly large, and the back two wheels are particularly small.

And its support frame is an inclined bevel with a very thick board on it.

"That's it?" Li Er raised his finger and pointed.

"Back to Your Majesty, this is the trench car." Liu Min nodded.

"This thing ......" Li Er walked to the side of the trench car, circled around twice, and then looked at Li Chengqian and Liu Min and said, "Do you want to push it directly into the moat?" Right? ”

"Father (Your Majesty) is wise!" Li Chengqian and Liu Min slapped a not-so-big sycophant at the same time.

"How much does this thing weigh? How many soldiers do you need to push? "It's been a long time since he was the emperor, and Li Er was used to this kind of sycophancy, so he patted the car and asked without any reaction.

"The weight is about 2,000 catties, because the wheels are added with bearings, and it takes about five people to push." Li Chengqian didn't know this kind of specific data, so the question was answered by Liu Min.

"Five?" Li Er nodded: "Come five people, push it." ”

Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, Li Er will not say this, but he will do it.

Because just looking at the size of the trench car, Li Er didn't believe that this thing could be pushed up by five people.

In the end, however, it turned out that if it was on flat ground without any obstacles, it only took three people to push the trench up, but if you wanted speed and strength, five people were necessary.

"Not bad. That's good. After verifying that the trench car could indeed be pushed by five people, Li Er was very satisfied, and after circling around twice, he was attracted by another artifact in the yard.

"What is this?" Walking to a round, about a hug of thick and thin iron pillars about half a zhang long, Li Er stretched out his legs and kicked and asked.

"This ......" A trace of embarrassment flashed on Liu Min's face, and he looked at Li Chengqian.

"What? Is there anything you can't say? Li Er frowned and asked in a deep voice.

He hates all kinds of concealments from his subordinates the most, of course, maybe it's Lao Li, any emperor seems to hate this.
