Chapter 268: Wheel Thunderbolt Catapult

Ma Jun has made many inventions and creations in handicrafts, agriculture, and military affairs, and has been depressed from his youth to old age. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although many of Ma Jun's inventions and creations have not been valued by the imperial court, they have been welcomed by the working people, and his achievements and reputation have been praised by the working people for thousands of years.

Among all the non-civil and military talents in the late Han Dynasty, Ma Jun, Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji, Qin Hao wanted to recruit them the most.

Originally, Qin Hao thought that Ma Jun was a member of the Mo family, and felt that it was almost impossible to recruit Ma Jun, so he had basically given up in his heart, but who would have thought that Ma Jun was actually a member of the Gong family, which gave Qin Hao a chance.

Liu Ye has been subdued by Qin Hao, and with Liu Ye's relationship, plus Liu Ye's help to speak, the possibility of subduing Ma Jun is still very high.

It's just that Qin Hao didn't expect Ma Jun to have such a big background, the great-great-grandson of the master Ma Yan, the grandson of the famous man Ma Rong, these two people are not very famous, especially Ma Rong also worshiped Nanyang Taishou before his death.

It seems that the Ma family in Liangzhou is the real controller of the Gong family, so what is the relationship between Ma Teng and the Gong family? Qin Hao said secretly in his heart.

Ma Rongzu is the general of Fubo Ma Yuan, and Ma Teng is also the queen of Ma Yuan, so it is not difficult to guess the relationship between the Ma family and Ma Teng.

However, after thinking about it deeply, Qin Hao found that he was afraid to think too much, Ma Teng was just a side child of the Ma family, and he had openly rebelled with Han Sui and others.

The relationship between the hundred families and the family is complicated, and Qin Hao, who is as smart as Qin Hao, can't help but feel a headache about this, because there is too little information, and he can't analyze anything meaningful and valuable at all.

Qin Hao originally wanted to recruit Ma Jun, but Ma Jun had such a complicated background, which made Qin Hao feel that Ma Jun was not easy to recruit.

"The lord has heard the name of the senior brother?" Liu Ye asked suspiciously, the senior brother in his cognition was a taciturn person, and he was not very famous outside.

"No, I just didn't expect that the grandson of Lord Ma Rong would be the successor of the Gong family." Qin Hao hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "By the way, Ziyang, how much do you know about the affairs of the hundred schools?" ”

When Liu Ye heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly and said: "If the lord wants to know about the affairs of the hundred schools, he might as well ask Lord Wang, what Ye knows is limited to the Gong family, but Lord Wang is involved in all the hundred schools." ”

When Qin Hao heard this, Wang Yue, who was suddenly resentful, looked at it, but Wang Yue directly turned his head and didn't look at Qin Hao.

Qin Hao naturally knew that Wang Yue was the one who was in charge of the affairs of the hundred schools, but as soon as Qin Hao asked Wang Yue about the secret of the empire, he sent Qin Hao away, which made Qin Hao crazy.

"Forget it, increasing the production of thunderbolts is the top priority." Qin Hao shook his head and looked very helpless, and then asked, "I don't know where Mr. Ma Jun is now?" If it's too far, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up! ”

"Don't worry, Senior Brother Ma Jun is currently in Luoyang." Liu Ye smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Some of the actions of the court made Senior Brother Ma Jun very dissatisfied, but if Ye personally went to request, I think Senior Brother Ye would definitely sell Ye a thin noodle." ”

"Then please Ziyang."

Then Qin Hao and Wang Yue went with Liu Ye to invite Ma Jun, and after arriving at Mafu and waiting for an hour, Qin Hao finally met the invention king of the late Han Dynasty.

Ma Jun was younger than Qin Hao imagined, about twenty years old, and his appearance was very ordinary, belonging to the kind that he couldn't even recognize when standing in the crowd.

Waiting for an hour made Qin Hao's sense of Ma Jun deteriorate a lot, Qin Hao thought that Ma Jun was setting up a score, but later found out that he was not a big score, but an excuse for not wanting to help.

Liu Ye tried his best to wear out his tongue and mouth, so Ma Jun reluctantly agreed to help, this is still based on the old feelings, which shows how dissatisfied Ma Jun is with the court.

Qin Hao didn't show a hint of solicitation from beginning to end, because he knew that the current Gongjia was not something he could recruit, and he could only build a good relationship first, and only after the situation became clear, it would be possible to get the support of Ma Jun and the Gongjia.

When Ma Jun learned that Liu Ye had developed a new catapult, he was immediately interested, so the four of them immediately went to the craftsman's workshop.

Liu Hong has entrusted the task of building a catapult to Qin Hao, so now Qin Hao is responsible for all the craftsman's visits, and after arriving at the craftsman's workshop, it really opened Qin Hao's eyes.

After four years of vigorous discovery, the scale of the Yanmen craftsman workshop is only one-fifth of that of Luoyang, and the Luoyang craftsman workshop has nearly 10,000 craftsmen alone, not counting more apprentices.

Qin Hao estimated that if the ore materials were complete, the productivity of your Luoyang craftsman's workshop would be able to create 5,000 long knives, 10,000 spears, and 50,000 arrows in one day......

Since Qin Wen led the army to the Tiger Prison Pass, the Luoyang Craftsman Workshop has stopped all operations, and is specifically responsible for building a series of materials for defending the city, and then transporting all of them to the Tiger Prison Pass to ensure that there will be no shortage of materials to defend the city.

In the craftsman's workshop, Ma Jun held the drawings of the thunderbolt car, and said to Liu Ye excitedly: "Senior brother, it's amazing." Why didn't I find out that you had such a talent in mechanical arts? ”

Ma Jun didn't stutter when he spoke, Qin Hao estimated that stuttering should be his teenage problem, and later overcame it in adulthood like Deng Ai.

When Liu Ye heard this, he immediately shook his head with a wry smile and said, "With senior brother here, who dares to say that he is talented in mechanical skills?" ”

Liu Ye's sentence can be said to express the pain in the hearts of all the disciples of the Gongjia.

Ma Jun's talent in mechanical skills is simply terrifying, one person covers up the demeanor of all the younger brothers of the Gongjia such as Liu Ye, and the others can only look at him.

"How come, with this thunderbolt, you can see that the junior brother is not inferior to me at all."

"Where is it, senior brother has a good reputation."

Although Liu Ye is humble on his lips, he also has a faint pride in his heart, after all, he has been suppressed for so long, and now he is recognized by Ma Jun, Liu Ye is still very happy.

"But this thunderbolt of yours is not perfect, and there is a lot of room for improvement."

Liu Ye sighed in his heart, and he really couldn't hide it from his senior brother.

"I don't know what kind of magic my brother has?"

"Look." Ma Jun pointed to the drawings and gushed: "If you install a wooden wheel here, and the machine drives the wheel to rotate quickly, you can launch the big stones one after another, which will save a lot of time for filling, and there are ......."

Liu Ye and Ma Jun were talking enthusiastically, and Qin Hao and Wang Yue couldn't interject, but after hearing what they said, Qin Hao was suddenly amazed.

Ma Jun is really powerful, and he thought of the idea of wheeling the stone cart after a little question, no, it should be called a wheel-turning thunderbolt catapult now.
