Chapter 62: A Scientific Maniac
A large flock of samples was driven to a wasteland, and Yun Yue didn't understand what a flock of sheep was doing at the test site. The shepherd herded the sheep into the designated area and turned away, leaving the sheepdogs to do the rest. Several sheepdogs stopped and drove the scattered sheep back.
It is strange that the head sheep would carry the flock on its own. And the sheep were walking with their heads down and eating what was on the ground.
"Did you scatter beans on the ground?" Yun Yue, who was holding the binoculars, understood after a few glances.
"Boiled beans in salt water are the most popular among sheep. Yo, it's coming. The old fisherman's face suddenly became nervous, and the hand holding the telescope was actually bruised because of the nervousness.
There weren't many things that could make this old guy so nervous, and Yun Yue's curiosity became even stronger.
There was a loud "boom" that rushed to the sky, and Yun Yue felt the ground tremble three times, and then several sheep flew up. The sheep immediately blew up the camp, and even the sheepdogs wailed and hid in all directions. But before the matter was over, there was another loud bang. This time it was the shepherd dog who was unlucky, and the whole dog was thrown upwards for six or seven meters. That scene makes people palpitate when they look at it. What the hell is going on, I haven't seen them launch anything? Could it be that these two old guys have made howitzers, if there is such a thing. Yun Yue thought it would be better to unify the earth first!
"Hahaha! It's done! The old fisherman danced like a child in the bunker, and he didn't explain to Yun Yue and got excited on his own.
"Master Hou! This kind of thing can be buried in the soil beforehand. Just wait for someone or something to step on it, and it will explode. Because it is buried in advance, it can be filled with a lot of gunpowder. I think if you use a cow, you can blow it up as well. Master Geng saw that Yun Yue was still holding up the binoculars to watch, and hurriedly explained on the side.
Yun Yue understood as soon as she heard it, this thing had a more familiar name in later generations...... Mine!
It was not easy to get out of the mines in these years, and it was just a firing device that killed the old nose. I really don't know how these two old guys came up with it, this thing is a sharp weapon in ambush warfare. The degree of lethality and concealment is not comparable to that of the triangular spike.
The carriage carried a group of people to the test site, and a total of three mines were planted. Now all three are fully exploded, proving that the firing equipment is very successful and reliable. Equipment on the battlefield sometimes doesn't need to be advanced, but reliability. No matter how advanced something is, if it breaks down when it's time to use it, it's still a fart.
On the ground was a large pit with a diameter of two or three meters, according to the power of gunpowder in this year. God knows how much gunpowder the two old boys had buried in it, and the dirt around the pit was still smoking. More than a dozen dead sheep were scattered around the pit, some of which were blown to pieces, and the east and west were very miserable. Some, just bleeding from their nose and mouth, fell to the ground and convulsed. It looks like it's hung up, and the twitches are just involuntary spasms of the muscles. These should have been shaken to death, and the power of this mine can be seen.
"The old man wants to use cattle to experiment, which can more intuitively reflect the power of this bomb. But that Li Si actually said that the cow was too expensive, hum! It's cool all day long, and there are fewer cows that are eaten? Lao Tzu got a few heads to experiment, why can't it! When the fisherman was happy, he began to mumble like a child.
is a broken marquis, in fact, it is not much different from the aunt in the middle class of kindergarten. Yun Yue constantly mediated the disputes of these old children, especially Li Si, who was in charge of money. I am often troubled by these old guys, and I can't afford to offend any of them.
Test the mine, and its sheep will do. The reason why the old fisher said that he used the cow was completely to show off the power of this bomb in front of Yun Yue. Regardless of the cost, his favorite thing should be elephants.
Master Geng stood on the side and looked at the sky with his hands on his back, if this old guy meant. The captured Donghu is not bad, he is a rigorous scientific worker. How can there be a complete information on fried sheep, and Yun Yue has even made up the scene of a group of heavily armed Donghu captives wading through a minefield.
"I know you're working hard, but how did you come up with this ignition device?" Yun Yue picked up two pieces of blown up parts, and after looking at them for a long time, she didn't see why. I can only avoid this place filled with the pungent smell of gunsmoke, and it seems that the spirit of study of these two has exceeded the scope of their own understanding.
"This ignition device ......!" Master Geng was about to say when he was stopped by the old fisherman and spread his hands towards Yun Yue. "What do you mean?" Yun Yue said with some puzzlement.
"Take the money! There was no research funding, and Li Si refused to allocate it. If you don't want to be the master of the house, the old man will find someone to go. "The old man said it reasonably, which made Yun Yue a little confused.
The manufacture of firearms is related to the future of Pingliang, and although saltpeter and sulfur produced in the northwest need to be transported over long distances, it is not ridiculously expensive. Li Si should understand the role of firearms in future warfare, so why would research funds be withheld? No, this has to be explained to Lis. In the future, in the face of all kinds of princes, the Pingliang army has a thin background, but it is all alive with firearms.
"There's this, Ben Hou ......"
"Ahem......!" Seeing that Yun Yue was about to promise the old fisherman, Fan Zeng next to him hurriedly coughed.
"Ben Hou is going to ask." Yun Yue was naturally not stupid, and was reminded by Fan Zeng to hurriedly change her words. As long as he promised the old fisherman, this matter could not be changed. The authority of Pingliang people's words to Hou Ye is not generally valued. A gentleman's word that it is difficult to chase a horse is no longer enough to explain its essence! If you let Pingliang people say it, it would be more appropriate for Jun Wu to say it.
Looking at the left and right, his flickering took away the two high-tech talents, and Yun Yue looked at Fan Zeng in confusion. This guy should know a little bit about it, otherwise his character would never have pulled his sleeve at such a critical moment.
"Master Hou, Mr. Li Si is also helpless in this matter. The old fisherman said that he would experiment with highly brittle metals as raw materials for cannonballs, and he said that silver would do. And they want gold, they say...... said that he was going to experiment with adding gold to the bowstring in order to make the bowstring more malleable...... "Speaking of this, Fan Zeng couldn't go on.
Yun Yue was even more confused, this is a scientific madman. Take silver alloy for cannonballs, and draw gold for bowstrings. God, this isn't a monkey rescuer! It's just such a way to play, and I won't agree to it if I change it. This is the rhythm of directly wanting to break the ruin of Pingliang!
"There are still ......" Yun Yue had collapsed when she heard that there were still two words, and fled despite Fan Zeng's statement. Lis, it's not easy. In the face of these two old guys, how did he survive to this day without being. (To be continued.) )
