Cannons, not artillery, but trebuchets.

What Chen Zhi made Gonghua and Meng Li did was the trebuchet used to defend the city and field battles, and this thing was compiled by Chen Zhi from the drawings to the construction, and then let Gonghua and Meng Li improve it little by little in the actual production.

"Very good, since you said so, then you must have confidence," Chen Zhi nodded and praised the two.

However, the public lost a little uneasy and said: "Taishou, you still have to go and test it yourself, after all, this matter involves a military dispute, it is not a trivial matter, in case one accidentally makes a mistake, then the guilt of the two of us is nothing, in case of a major incident and affects the peace of the county, it will not be good." ”

Meng Li also nodded hurriedly, and couldn't help but help beside him.

Chen Zhi also nodded when he heard this, he knew that in order to gather fame gold liquid, he had let the big and small news circulate in the city, and the two people in front of him had obviously heard about it, and they were worried about the safety of Dai County and Dai County at this time.

Chen Zhi said: "You don't have to worry, I also know the importance of this matter, so I will arrange it for you, because you are the people I trust, I will investigate them one by one when the time comes, and I will not let you be responsible, you have already done your duty." ”

"That's not what I mean...... the two of them were about to explain when they heard this, but they were blocked by Chen Zhi waving his hand.

"This configuration can be regarded as a sharpening of the two of you," Chen Zhi restrained his smile and said earnestly: "To build these cannons, it is not enough to rely on the skills of the two of you, but also to transfer manpower, which can be regarded as having experience, and if you want to have similar things in the future, you will be familiar with it." ”

The two of them became humble again and again, and said that there were still shortcomings, and Meng Li said: "This time, Mr. Ma Shou also gave us a lot of help, although we can't ask for advice directly, but I have really learned a lot of things by his side recently, and his words can often make me wait for the two of them to open their mouths." ”

"Yes, Mr. Ma still has the ability, the opportunity is rare, you should ask for more advice."

After saying a few more words, Chen Zhi made an appointment with the two of them, and personally went over to accept them, which sent the two away, and then sat on the seat, closed his eyes, at first glance, it seemed that he was closing his eyes to recuperate, but in fact, he was contacting several zodiac origami outside, and now Chen Zhi sent out a lot of origami, and they belong to several different forces and camps, most of which are related to themselves.

"At present, the turmoil in the northern grassland is over, Murong Department seems to have the intention to complete the agreement with me, send a team of soldiers and horses over, and the leader is still that Murong Han, this person is famous in this battle of Thorn City, and he already has the posture of being known as Murong Famous General, that is, in the history of later generations, he is also a person who has left a name, and his rank is not low, which shows the sincerity of Murong Ministry, but after all, they have experienced a big battle, and they still have damage, and they must take the opportunity to receive the fruits of victory and suppress other tribes, Therefore, this cavalry of about 2,000 people is almost the limit. ”

"Wang Jun led the troops back, he lost his troops this time, failed to do so, he must be dissatisfied in his heart, this time back, his first priority is to stabilize his forces, reduce the impact of this strategic mistake, and then deal with the accountability of the imperial court, but at the same time he can free up his hands to deal with Daijun and suppress me, but the premise is that I can withstand this Duanbu attack, but if I use normal methods, it is to block this offensive, and I will also lose a lot, and then face him Wang Jun, there is no power to fight back!"

"On the other hand, the court is not calm either, Zhang Ying put forward the theory of changing the history of the assassination, and the court is discussing it, but the king of Jiangdu is suddenly going out of Jizhou, and he is the key one, maybe he can pry the general trend, I don't know what he and that Zhang Ying have in private."

After feeling it for a while, Chen Zhi reopened his eyes, but what was turning in his mind was not the upcoming war, but the situation in the imperial court.

"After the establishment of the New Han Dynasty, because of the great power of the family, the royal family had to rely on the clan, not only in the local feudal princes, county kings, in order to stabilize the localities, but also so that these divided princes, but also in the court as officials, if it is other dynasties, this clan has a real seal, and can be in the court, and there are many to do the ruling position, the prime minister Yin and Yang, has long been criticized by the population, but in the new Han Dynasty is more than common, but the disadvantages have not been reduced, there have been a lot of turmoil in the past, and now there seems to be a new turmoil, It's just that the situation outside the Central Plains is different from the past, and I don't know if the imperial court will get rid of it, and the general trend is accumulating. ”

After thinking for a while, Chen Zhi summed up the current situation of all parties, but found that the moment may be a rare quiet time before chaos for all parties.

"It's a pity, they were able to calm down, but I can't be at peace," put away the general analysis record on paper, and Chen Zhi only then cared about his own family affairs, "It's a pity, this section of Xianbei, there is no zodiac origami monitoring for the time being, and the movement of that section of Wenyang can only rely on spies and detailed returns, and there may be discrepancies, but you still have to understand this person's temperament and what masterminds are around him to predict his movements." ”

Thinking so, Chen Zhi stood up, walked to a map of Daijun, carefully probed, and after thinking about it, he suddenly called Chen Duo again and asked him to go to Chen Zhuang to buy some medicinal materials.

On the other side, the three members of the Ma family, the two Gongyi and others left the yamen, and they were all busy, as for the person Ge Lu, he seemed much more leisurely, first wandered the street for a while, followed into a pharmacy, and browsed roughly, and waited for the shopkeeper to come and greet him, but the man said goodbye and left.

As soon as he left, he went straight back to where he had stayed.

Chen Zhi prepared a residence for several celebrities who came with him, and with the consolidation of his power and status in Daijun, the living conditions of his followers also continued to rise, and by now, Ge Lu already had a single courtyard with two entrances and two exits.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, someone greeted him, but this was a servant who came with him, how could the Ge family have some heels, so as not to let Ge Lu live too hard, but when he was learning and waiting by Ge Hong's side, he ate and lived alone, and he was used to it for a long time, so there were not many people brought this time, and there were only five people before and after, which made this huge courtyard quite deserted.

However, when he entered the courtyard today, he heard someone singing in the courtyard, and then his own servants greeted him and whispered: "That Daoist Li is here, and he is waiting for Daojun in the house, just looking at his appearance, he is a little unkind......

"Li Bu is here?" When Ge Lu heard this, his eyes lit up, "It's just right, I'm just about to meet him, let this fellow Daoist give Taishou a look." ”
