1.36 The Great Array

The big ships of the Ji country have anchored upstream at the mouth of the canal. But it was not lined up along the riverbank as usual. Instead, it is in a vertical column, like a dragon bridge flying frame, across the river.

When the ships of Jiguo were in place, Zang Min, the general of Du Liao, gave an order: "Break the embankment!" ”

The will be cut off and the lock will be broken, and the water will break through the embankment. Rolling torrents, rushing out of the old desecration and running into the newly dug ditch.

The momentum is like a landslide, and the sound is like thunder.

Despite the preparations, the reinforced sandbags piled up on both sides of the canal were still swept away by the roar of the flood peak. The white waves are monstrous, pouring thousands of miles. The ferocity of Zhangshui is ten times the water!

Zhangshui breaks downstream, and the upstream water flow is abruptly turbulent. Although the wings of the ship were flipped and the boats were connected. The big boat of the thistle country is still creaking when it is dragged by the turbulence.

"Put!" The ship's officer gave the order. The boatman in the cabin moved the mechanism. The bow of the ship should have poked out of the bronze hook, but there was another thick copper pipe, which stretched out strongly.

Driven by animal power. The water drawer in the belly of the ship, which was converted from a water drain, stored the brown liquid in the urn and spewed out of the copper pipe. This ship was originally used for waterfront buildings and ships to extinguish fires. What is stored in the cabin today is not clean water used to extinguish fires, but "stone grease water".

"Gaonu County has water (ěi), which is combustible."

It was a brown liquid. Locals call it "stone paint" and "stone grease", which is used to light fires for cooking and lighting lamps for heating. It is also known as "stone grease water" and "fierce fire oil".

According to the book. Stone lacquer is produced on the shore of the river, mixed with sand and gravel and spring water. Locals dip wild pheasant tails and collect them into clay pots. It resembles black lacquer and is flammable like a hemp stalk. It was accompanied by thick smoke, and even the tent in front of the fire was blackened.

Later, there was a strange person Shen Kuo, who named it: oil.

Inspired by Zhong Xuan's fish oil burning thief, Jia Xu set up a poisonous plan to burn the city with oil and fire.

However, the previous fish oil consumption was huge. The country of Ji has been hoarding for many years, and it has been squandered by Zhong Xuan. Insufficient to be used by Guangzong again. Books and newspapers Longyou earthquake pass. Liu Bei thought of the "Book of Han": "Gaonu County has water that is combustible. ".

Gaonu County is in Shang County.

Without further ado, this ordered the sect to go and buy it. As expected. Almost every household of Gao Nu has several cans or even dozens of cans. It is used for daily cooking, lighting lamps for heating, and so on. They were all bought and shipped on ships outside the city of Gwangjong. All the deposits of the high-slave households were sold out. Just like the fish oil of thistle country. This poison plan can be one or two, but not three.

The reason why it is called "stone paint". Not only does it have a luster similar to lacquer, but it also has a lot of viscosity. Easier to adhere than fish oil. It also has liquid properties similar to water, and is lighter than water and floats on the surface of the water.

Saw. The black-brown "stone fat water" rushed down with the Zhangshui, like an evil black dragon, quickly devouring the channel and swooping towards Guangzong City.

Because it is very easy to adhesion, it is difficult to clean. Therefore, the Jiguo Raft is berthed in the upper reaches of Zhangshui. The "stone fat water" accumulated in the abdomen is sprayed downwind. After the oil enters the water, it flows down the river and discharges into the ditch without contaminating the ship.

As for the large urn for oil storage in the cabin. It is not a pity to abandon it and replace it with a new urn.

Clear water arrives first.

Rushed out of the ditch and scattered into Guangzong.

Everything is as before.

The vents are first filled with water and converge into a whirlpool. The whirlpool expanded rapidly, and the ground collapsed with it. The flood peaks poured into the underground tunnels and roared into the city.

With the help of water potential, the sporadic sound of water wheels rises and falls.

When the waves are raging, the water wheel is turning more and more.

With a loud rumbling sound, the city wall of Guangzong collapsed one after another.

The Han army cut wood for rafts. Ride the wind and waves and rush into the city.

When passing through the ruins of the city gate, the soldiers on the raft stretched out their heads to look down. I saw that the ground attached to the soil that was submerged under the water was washed away by the flood. Reveal neatly laid out checkered floors. If you look closely, you can see that the bricks are all made of solid wood and iron. As far as the eye can see, the entire city of Gwangjong is covered with trap squares.

The water was monstrous, flooding Guangzong in one fell swoop. As far as the eye can see, the city is white, only the high dome of the tent is still visible from the water.

After the water accumulates for a few feet, it gradually stagnates. Clear but not flowing, eventually submerging everything.

The soldiers who rushed into the city first had solemn faces, and there was no joy at all. Just because of the sound of the gears turning, like the roar of war drums, rumbling under the water, it shook the soles of the feet.

There are quirks.

The flat water surface seems to have been split by a knife, and the waist is broken into two.

Then it became a trench.

The water is abrupt and fast. The raft in front of it was caught off guard, and was sucked in by the flowing water one after another, and fell into the trench. Screams rang out one after another. Dong Chong, who witnessed everything up close, wanted to crack his liver and gall.

The aftermath lingers in my ears. The screams that had fallen into the abyss suddenly bounced again. From beneath the water, a roar rises.

Rumble!

There was a loud bang.

The shadow soars into the sky.

A few sergeants who survived were climbing on it and rising into the air.

Wait until you reach the top and stop slowly. Only then did the crowd see clearly. The previous black shadow turned out to be ...... It's a bronze arc!

Before he could react, the arc rushed backwards again. The sergeant was unable to cling to it and was thrown into the water.

Immediately after, another bronze arc roared out.

Between the rise and the fall, everyone was shocked. It turned out to be a complete bronze ring.

The underwater roar continues. Not far away, the water body is again divided.

Another bronze ring, roaring into the air.

Nested copper rings, one after another, continue to rise.

"This is the ......" Until this moment, there was Zuo Zhonglang who would have Huangfu Song awakened to his senses: "Armillary sphere!" ”

In the fourth year of the early Yuan Dynasty (117 years), Zhang Heng cast an armillary sphere. Its main body is a nested copper ring that can operate on its own for several turns. The outermost layer, with a circumference of one foot and six inches. Each layer is divided into inner and outer rules, south and north poles, yellow, equator, 24 solar terms, 28 columns, as well as "middle" and "outer" stars, the sun, the moon, the five latitudes, etc., and many celestial phenomena. Two leaky pots are attached to it, there are holes at the bottom of the pot, and the dripping water pushes the copper ring, and rotates evenly according to the scale. All kinds of celestial phenomena then appeared impressively.

On both sides of the bronze instrument, there is also a jade carp, spitting water into the pot, the left is the night, the right is the day. On the pot, there are gold and bronze immortals and Xu disciples, "all holding arrows with their left hands and carving with their right fingers, so as to say goodbye to the morning and evening." What's more, there is also a hidden mechanism under the stairs, and the two pots of Ruilun and pod, driven by dripping water, according to the changes of the moon rising and falling, cloudy and sunny, constantly rotating and closing. To show the day, hope, string, obscurity, etc., just like a living calendar.

The armillary sphere was cast, and it was hidden in the secret room under the spiritual platform. The subordinate officials in the secret room will inform the celestial observers on the stage of the celestial phenomena shown on the armillary sphere at a certain time and moment. As a result, the armillary sphere is exactly what appears in the sky.

It's breathtaking.

However, the armillary sphere cast by Zhang Heng has a circumference of only one zhang and four feet and six inches.

The giant ring in front of you is more than a hundred. Couldn't it all be made of bronze?

The momentum is huge and appalling.

For a while, the fishy wind blew on the face, and it was faintly accompanied by a strange fragrance.

As the large array began to operate, the tent camps, which had previously been submerged in the flood, also rose to the surface of the water one after another.

In the middle of the high platform, one person stands in front of the tent. Fairy wind bones, dripping water is not stained. It is the great sage and good teacher, the general of Tiangong Zhang Jiao is also!

"Ignorant rats. Zhang Pingzi's great array of heavenly arrays, how could you wait to see through the heavens. "The voice is on the right. One person has one eye and a black cover, and the big banner behind him reads "Digong General Zhang". There is another person on the left, and the big banner behind him is "Rengong General Zhang".

Go without saying.

The character shape, standing on the three high platforms, is Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang.

"The big array of the heavens, the stars are moving, and the white horse is passing through the gap. 500 years before and 500 years later. Look up to astronomy, look down on geography, know people, understand yin and yang, Ming gossip, know Qimen, know Dunjia......"

"With a flick of your fingers, you can make you wait, and you will be wiped out, and there will be no bones left!"

"Uhh
