Chapter 311: Huang Yueying's New Weapon
"Rise up, everybody! Jingxiong is right, this time I Donglai, our Weiyuan Island has the help of heaven, and we will sweep away all the enemies who come to attack. Xu Ding followed Li Gan's words and said, while re-looking at the lieutenant who had followed him to Donglai at the beginning.
Strictly speaking, the Li family treated him well, first Li Jin taught him marksmanship, and then the three Li family were loyal to him, and they all served as military generals and high-ranking officials.
Therefore, Xu Ding easily did not send the first army captain, because the martial arts of Li Qian and his son Li Quan were really not outstanding.
He was afraid that the two would be injured or killed in the battle, which would make him feel guilty.
Therefore, there are good things to think of them, and the great task of guarding Weiyuan Island is also given to them.
Now it seems that Li Qian actually has some other ideas.
As the saying goes, a manly man, when he carries a three-foot sword, he will make immortal achievements.
Even if Li Gan did want to live a more stable life in the past, with the growth of Donglai and the development, he also had a sense of crisis.
There are more and more talents under Xu Ding, and the role of the Li family is getting smaller and smaller.
In the future, whether the Li family can occupy an important position in Xu Dingzhi cannot rely on Li Dian alone, nor can it always rely on the initial kindness.
The more you use this thing, the less it will be, and when Xu Ding pays off the kindness, he Li Qian and his son Li Cheng are afraid that it will not matter.
Therefore, Li Gan listened to Xu Ding's words, and he had an idea, and pulled out the banner of Heavenly Help.
In this feudal society, what is the greatest credit.
It was not born and died, and he won countless military exploits.
It's not a good way to govern, and it's hard to stabilize the party and make some political achievements.
Rather, from the dragon's work.
It is to help his own British lord sit on the supreme position of the Ninety-Five.
It is a shout to lead everyone to support the new Lord!
The Great Han is not a Great Han, and the Son of Heaven is not the Son of Heaven!
Then Xu Ding has a chance to become an emperor.
Therefore, he Li Gan was the first to stand up and appeal, just as he was the first Li family to lead 500 troops to Donglai to support Xu Ding's appointment.
What are the opportunities? What is vision?
That's it!
Although his small actions can't be seen by a discerning person, he can't hide it from Xu Ding.
Even he didn't dare to shout this sentence in Donglai so shamelessly at the beginning, but you can think about how meaningful this sentence is.
"Jingxiong, the world is turbulent, and the war is raging today, we intend to rule in peace, protect the territory and the people, enrich the people and strengthen the army, so don't say anything that is not conducive to the unity of the world in the future." Xu Ding scolded lightly, which was regarded as beating Li Gan.
Now he doesn't want to be collected all over the world, although he is not afraid, but he also doesn't want the Han to be too wide.
Otherwise, it will be more difficult to integrate in the future.
"It's my lord! I didn't remember it. Li Gan clenched his fists and said.
"That's right! Brother Li Jin, I want to invite you to Donglai, and then get a martial arts hall with Wang Yue's predecessors and Zilong's master, this martial arts hall is regarded as a martial arts school, and it is a martial arts hall to cultivate middle and grass-roots generals, and to train and deliver talents for the army. Xu Ding walked as he walked.
Li Gan in the back heard this, his eyes lit up.
Lecture on martial arts, this is a good thing!
Also, his eldest nephew Li Jin and the sword king Wang Yue set up a martial arts hall, which doesn't mean that Li Jin's treatment is similar to Wang Yue.
Silk!
This location is important!
The Li family's position in Donglai is in place.
So Li Gan's heart was excited, he knew that this was Xu Ding's return hug.
That sentence is really right.
Xu Ding beat him first, and then gave him a sweet date, isn't this a reward in disguise?
But when he thought of Li Jin's temperament, he had a toothache again!
The eldest nephew is good at everything, but he likes to be quiet and doesn't want to be out.
Xu Ding made it clear that he wanted to throw this headache to him.
"Lord, this is a great thing, the world celebrates, I think Jin'er must also be looking forward to it, I will write to him, let him give up the family business of the Cheng family, and come to Donglai." After thinking about it, Li Gan didn't dare to guarantee it, so he could only say that he tried his best.
After all, Li Jin is not his son, and he has his own ideas, so he can only try to fool as much as possible, and try to mention the benefits of the martial arts hall to him.
Xu Ding didn't answer, Li Qian knew how to do it, so it would be good.
If Li doesn't come in or not, it can only be an expectation.
However, he should not let go of this opportunity, after all, the martial arts academy, this is not a military position or anything, it is enough to make the martial arts glorious, I believe that few martial artists can resist it.
Following the official road, Xu Ding soon came to the center of Donglai Islandββββ Chinatown!
That's right, the largest city on the island is named Chinatown, a very strange name, not the name of the city at all.
I don't know how many times I have been complained about by everyone in secret, Xi Zhicai and Cheng Yu, Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong and others have suggested many times, but Xu Ding insists on not changing it, so he wants to use this city name.
For this reason, only Guo Jia supported Xu Ding, and he also made a distorted interpretation of this in the name of beauty.
The street is also long and accessible, the door is free, and the prosperity is far and wide.
Tang, prosperous and solid, rich but not tired.
Chinatown is prosperous, free and prosperous, and happy.
And then no one complained about the name of the city anymore.
Xu Ding, who knew the truth, just smiled and didn't explain much, leaving a lot of puzzles for this.
The current Weiyuan Island is the real base camp, with a population of people, and countless fertile fields have been reclaimed, providing a pragmatic food foundation for Xu Ding.
And the results of various aspects are also the first to be wiped here.
For example, the improvement of grain has also made phased breakthroughs and progress under the leadership of Zaoyi.
The three kinds of grains, rice, wheat and soybean, are the main research objects.
The average yield of rice per mu in Dahan is 2 stone (one stone is calculated as 100 catties), two crops in the south and one season in the north.
Now Weiyuan Island can be planted with 4 stones, which is twice as much as before.
Among them, there is the credit of jujube.
With this beginning, I believe that there will be greater breakthroughs in the future.
It's just that it takes time to accumulate.
Freezing three feet is not a day's cold.
Engaging in scientific research requires time and energy to precipitate.
Of course, when he returned to Weiyuan Island this time, he didn't have time to look for Zaoyi, but went directly to the workshop.
Now Huang Yueying is mainly presiding over this aspect.
What does Huang Chengyan say, he has no ambitions, an easy-going personality, and is not very willing to get those lethal equipment, so he usually hangs on the college to train students, or studies and improves agricultural equipment.
Now the most work is done with the steam engine and the bicycle and other means of transportation.
Anyway, he prefers to get things that have nothing to do with killing.
Therefore, the improvement of weapons is basically done by Huang Yueying.
And she is also willing to do research in this area, and she also has the intention of helping Xu Ding.
"Brother Xu, why are you back?" Huang Yueying saw Xu Ding enter the courtyard, stopped what she was doing, put down her tools, her body was a little restrained, but her expression was happy.
It was so late that Xu Ding suddenly returned to Weiyuan Island, and he didn't hear any wind at all.
In fact, she is improving the bed crossbow.
Her newly made bed crossbow is made of the latest steel, and most of the Guan Jian part is also made of steel, which makes the range a quarter farther, and the crossbow arrow has a stronger penetrating power.
Of course, all the crossbow arrows of the bed crossbow must also be wrapped in steel, so that not to mention the brick wall, even the stone wall can be pierced into it and fixed, and the nimble soldiers can rely on it to climb the head of the city and capture the city.
"Passing by Weiyuan Island, come in and have a look." Xu Ding walked over, touched Huang Yueying's newly improved bed crossbow and said:
"Didn't I say don't work too hard, it's a big night, you rest early and sleep more, otherwise people will grow old."
"Hmmm! I will, Brother Xu, I don't usually fiddle with these things at night. Huang Yueying explained softly.
With Xu Ding's concern, her heart is sweet, and she feels happy even if she is tired.
But how could her careful thinking escape Xu Ding, Xu Ding walked over, gently hugged his waist, and said softly: "Good, let's go rest first, and when I finish fighting the peninsula, I will take you out to step on the spring and enjoy the mountains and rivers when I come back." β
"Hmmm! Okay, Brother Xu! I'll wait for you. "Now Huang Yueying is no longer the original little girl, she is seventeen years old, she is becoming more and more stylish, tall, well-proportioned and tight, her warm brown hair is more beautiful, and she wears a long gorgeous brocade robe, and she has more and more shadows of a two-dimensional girl.
Seriously, Xu Ding is also looking forward to it more and more, and the more he looks at it, the more he likes it.
After all, every time I see Huang Yueying, I have a sense of returning to the future, which can always evoke a little memory of his previous life.
Human hemp is like this, what is lost, will always be remembered and greedy.
Huang Yueying obediently went to rest, Xu Ding turned around and left, and then came to the Ordnance Department.
There are a large number of ordnance that is constantly being built and stored here, among which is Huang Yueying's improved bed crossbow type one, but they are worse than the one in Huang Yueying's yard, because it is an improved type two.
The bed crossbow is used for siege and the field to destroy the enemy.
So Xu Ding didn't bring it, because these things were too heavy, and it was inconvenient to install them after dismantling.
So he asked the guards to bring another 1,000 repeaters, which were also improved Type 2, which had a range of 10 to 20 paces longer than the original Improved Type 1 and was loaded with 20 rounds.
It's a heavy repeater!
Of course, the weight is correspondingly much more, so it is not equipped for any troops.
The improved type is now equipped not only with 1,000 guards and cavalry, but also with all other captains, more than 300 and less than 100.
So this is one of the reasons why the lieutenant of the Fourth Army has a lot of crossbow machines when facing the Korean army.
"Jingxiong, you are carrying three hundred improved type one crossbows to the overpass, as well as ten trebuchets, and a number of crossbow arrows, if Fuhu and them arrive first, you let them take them first, if they arrive late, you will take these equipment to Lelang County, this time your department can send 2,000 to 3,000 troops to fight, go down and arrange." Xu Ding inspected the arsenal of the Ordnance Department, selected three types of ordnance, and then gave an order to turn around and leave.
Because trebuchets are easy to disassemble and assemble, and the stones used are easy to use on the spot, the striking range and use are more extensive, but they are more popular than bed crossbows.
Li Gan immediately went down to An and dispatched 3,000 troops and horses to support the peninsula.
Mao Jue and others arranged for Minzhuang and Tuntian troops to transport ordnance to the overpass.
After staying on Weiyuan Island for twenty minutes, the soldiers ate bowls of hot noodles and rested, Xu Ding took them back to the overpass, and then continued to run to the other end.
