Chapter 534: The New Dynasty Aircraft Test Succeeds
In the playground of the palace, Wang Mang saw the latest flying machine developed by the carpenters.
He took a closer look, and the aircraft was streamlined!
Wang Mang continued to touch the flying machine and asked, "But, will such a flying machine be too light?" Is it really possible to fly in the air? ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has studied the skeleton of birds. It's all hollow and much. Carpenter A and B laughed.
"You're saying you're borrowing from the flight principles of birds! Sure enough, it's a monster in the mountains! Wang Mang gave a thumbs up.
However, at this time, Da Sima Yanyou broke in.
"Your Majesty, you must stop engaging in these things that bring disaster to the country and the people!" Da Sima Yan You scolded.
"Yan You, you have contradicted me many times. I didn't punish you much. But why are you still so arrogant? Wang Mang barked wildly.
"It's not that I'm arrogant. Your Majesty! Now, our new dynasty is already in danger! If you continue to do this perversely. We're all going to be killed by the mob! Da Sima Yan You scolded.
"Is that so? Are you alarmist again? Yan You, in the end, are you the emperor of our new dynasty, or am I the emperor of the new dynasty. I heard that you have also hidden many remnants of the Han family. Have you been plotting against you for a long time? Wang Mang was skeptical.
"Bad intentions? Your Majesty, your world was originally given to you by the Han Dynasty. Without the Han family, where would you be on the throne? Yan You said unruly.
"Yan You, do you still have the emperor in your eyes? How do you talk to me like that? Is there a second person in this world who speaks to me like this? Wang Mang said angrily.
"Your Majesty, now the green forest red eyebrows are getting stronger and stronger. Hebei, Bashu, and Wuyuan all had mobs in rebellion. Isn't it because of His Majesty's new policy that he has lost the hearts of the people? Da Sima Yan You scolded.
"Those are rebels and thieves. They have long had ambitions. Wang Mang quibbled.
"Your Majesty, what about Gongsun Shu? and Feng Yi. Wasn't he forced to rebel by His Majesty? Da Sima Yan You scolded.
"Forced to rebel? Am I the Faint King? Do all my courtiers like to rebel against me? Wang Mang scolded.
"Your Majesty, if there are only a few thieves in the world, it is the people's problem. If most of the people in the world are thieves, then it is Your Majesty's problem! ”
Da Sima Yan You suddenly burst into tears.
Wang Mang looked at him and scolded angrily: "Then why don't you rebel? Since I am a mere monarch. ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks you are doing something wrong. Temporary. Actually, you can be Renjun! Da Sima Yanyou cried.
"No...... I'm the Lord of the Great Faint! Where am I a virtuous king? I'm the Lord of the Great Faint! Wang Mang said with a smile.
Then, the great Sima Yanyou walked out.
He thought to himself: It seems that Your Majesty will not understand what I mean. It's really not good, I and the national teacher Liu Xin can only hope that the crown prince will come.
The crown prince is pure by nature and does not have so many scheming as His Majesty. We can train him to be a generation of virtuous monarchs.
Wang Mang continued to discuss the matter of the aircraft with carpenter A and B!
He asked A and B, "When will the aircraft be able to go to the sky?" ”
"It's going to take another month!" Carpenter A and B laughed.
Wang Mang's face suddenly turned cloudy.
In a deep voice, he said, "Why is it taking so long? Is half a month okay? ”
Carpenter A and B thought to himself: This is difficult! But I don't want to disobey Your Majesty's will!
Carpenter A and B's heart suddenly chuckled, and he felt that the pressure had suddenly increased many times!
The other carpenters on the scene began to tremble.
It was summer, and the carpenters were sweating with nervousness.
"Your Majesty, there is no problem. However, I need to send more people. "A and B are difficult.
"No problem, you can use as many people as you need." Wang Mang laughed.
A and B said, "Seventy will do." ”
"No problem." Wang Mang said with a smile.
Half a month later, carpenter A and B came to Weiyang Palace to see Wang Mang.
A and B said to Wang Mang: "Your Majesty, the flying machine has been built. Try it today! ”
"Good. If the flight is successful. I will reward you with a thousand gold, and seal ten thousand households. Wang Mang said with great joy.
"Good. Your Majesty. Come with me to the playground. Aircraft can fly to high altitudes. Carpenter A and B swore an oath.
Wang Mang went to the playground with carpenter A and B.
The soldiers of the New Dynasty brought the aircraft in a horse-drawn cart.
"A and B, how do you fly?" Wang Mang looked at carpenter A and B in front of him expectantly.
A and B walked to the pilot's position and held the joystick.
Listening to a buzzing sound, A and B flew into the sky.
The wings of the aircraft wave in the air.
The aircraft flew higher and higher, reaching a high altitude overlooking Chang'an City.
The people of Chang'an City looked up and saw A and B flying on top of the aircraft, and they were all stunned!
"This is carpenter A and B? His Majesty asked him to develop a flying machine, but the test was successful. I really didn't expect it! Uncle Li said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that there are really such capable people in this world? It can actually fly into the sky. Aunt Pan smiled.
The people of Chang'an City came out to watch the flying machine.
Wang Mang looked at A and B in the sky, and thought: I didn't see the wrong person! A and B are really a generation of talents! It's not a loss to give him a daughter!
However, A and B flew farther and farther away, and gradually lost sight of the figure.
Wang Mang said angrily: "What's the matter? Could it be that he is going to defect? ”
In fact, A and B flew to the Green Forest Army.
His flying machine landed on the Green Forest Mountain.
Liu Xuan was there to greet him.
After Liu Xuan saw A and B, he smiled and said, "You have heard a lot of information in Weiyang Palace in recent years!" Most of the information about the new army was stolen by you. Now, you've developed your aircraft. Let's also use the aircraft to transmit information. ”
"Liu Shenggong, our current strength still can't beat Wang Mang. Fortunately, the Red Eyebrow Army in the land of Qilu has recently annihilated the 300,000 iron cavalry of the New Dynasty. In the short term, it will be impossible for Wang Mang to encircle and suppress the Green Forest Army on a large scale. A and B said.
"Really? That's great. We're ready to fight. As long as there are three more years, we can have a decisive battle with Wang Mang! Liu Xuan said confidently.
Besides, on Wang Mang's side, he received the grieving chapter with a dirty face.
The clothes of the mourning chapter are already dirty!
"Your Majesty, the red-eyed thieves have occupied Jimo. Today, the land of Qilu has been mostly occupied by Red Eyebrows. There are already 100,000 Red Eyebrow troops! The Grand Master cried.
"Then why didn't you die in battle?" Wang Mang said angrily.
In the sixth year of the new Chaotianfeng (19 AD), the aircraft experiment was successful! However, the peasant rebel armies such as Green Forest and Red Mei have burned all over the Central Plains, and the world is already in chaos!
At this time, many people in the government and the opposition hoped that Wang Mang would stop the reform in order to reassure the people.
