Chapter 918: The Iron Monster

"Haha, mistakes, mistakes. I forgot that this crossbow weighs seventy or eighty pounds, and ordinary people can't pick it up at all, let alone your little girl. Ma Zongheng easily grabbed it with one hand, and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Humph! I'm quite a few, and I'll be sixteen in a month! When Huang Yueying heard this, she immediately stared at her eyes and shouted very unconvinced.

"Hahaha, sixteen years old is still a little girl!" Ma Zongheng was amused by Huang Yueying's straightforward personality and laughed a few times, and couldn't help but stretch out her other arm and wipe Huang Yueying's head, so annoyed that she screamed with indignation and shouted sternly. Ma Zongheng looked at Huang Yueying's face flushed with anger, and she couldn't help but laugh again, so angry that Huang Yueying stomped her feet and was about to have a seizure. At this time, Ma Zongheng suddenly shook the big bow and crossbow in his hand, and actually split the big bow and crossbow in half. Where had Huang Yueying seen such a bow and crossbow, she was immediately attracted to it, and her big eyes were even more fascinating.

"Now, this is where the loading is."

"Loaded?"

"That's where the arrows are mounted. The three arrows are hidden here, the small place at the top is called the arrow slot, the arrow is shot from here, and the back of this thing like a fish's tail is called the pillar chest crutch, because the crossbow is quite powerful, and the average person can't hold it steadily, there is this thing used to resist the chest, used to stand steady, and when the arrow is fired, it will not deviate from the target. Then there's the upper end of the machine, as soon as you pull it, the mechanism inside will be activated, and arrows will shoot out immediately. Ma Zongheng carefully explained to Huang Yueying. This little girl is really smart, and after listening to it, she has a general understanding of it, and she nodded again and again in surprise.

Ma Zongheng looked at her extremely interested, and couldn't help but rejoice, and suddenly said, "If you are interested, I will take the design drawings to you later." Then, with your intellect, you will soon understand the principle of this. ”

Speaking of which, when Ma Zongheng was in later generations, as a fanatical fan of the Three Kingdoms, he was even keen to study Zhuge Repeater himself, but this was far more difficult than Ma Zongheng's imagination. After countless failures in two lifetimes, Ma Zongheng has only recently developed this successful work, but it is far worse than Zhuge Repeater, not only in terms of weight, volume but also power, it is far inferior.

In later generations, after continuous modifications, the Zhuge repeater only weighed dozens of catties, and the volume was almost close to the ordinary bow and crossbow, and it could also fire ten arrows in a row, and after the improvement of the great inventor Ma Jun, it could even send as many as fifty arrows at a time!

This might as well imagine that if when the enemy is charging into battle, put a hundred Zhuge crossbows improved by Ma Jun in front of the formation, once the enemy rushes over, there will be 5,000 arrows shot out one after another, if there are 200 guns, it can be described as 10,000 arrows in a row, how terrifying it should be!

This can not only resist the charging enemy, but can even be used to defend the city, when the enemy comes to attack, with this Zhuge crossbow, it is simply a killing weapon. It's a pity that the Zhuge repeater modified by Ma Jun was not produced in large quantities because the production was very complicated and the arrows used had to be specially made, and it was later lost.

Of course, the repeating crossbow created by Ma Zongheng is far less powerful than the prototype Zhuge repeater, let alone compared with Ma Jun's fifty-arrow continuous Zhuge repeater.

But this is the case, in today's time, this is already a new type of war weapon, and its value is immeasurable.

Although Huang Yueying is young, don't forget that she has supreme wisdom, plus she stays in the Huang family and has been exposed to it all year round, so some truths have long been understood. At this time, she was also shocked when she heard that Ma Zongheng was unsuspecting to show herself the design of this repeater, and hurriedly said, "No!" This crossbow is very valuable, if it can be produced in large quantities, it can definitely greatly improve the combat power of the crossbowmen in the army, and even if you encounter several times the enemy in the future, with this crossbow in hand, the general does not have to be afraid! Besides, if Puyang City encounters the situation of Cao Jiangle coming in and attacking not long ago, with this crossbow in hand, then there is no need to be afraid. Even if Lejin's troops were doubled at that time, it would be more than enough to deal with his army. So the value of this repeater is so high that the little woman really can't imagine it. This look at the general design has benefited the little woman for life, great kindness, the little woman is here first! ”

Speaking of this, Huang Yueying was about to bow down, but was suddenly grabbed by Ma Zongheng. Huang Yueying frowned, just when she thought that Ma Zongheng was finally going to show his fangs and make conditions to herself. Who knew that Ma Zongheng stretched his frowning brows, and smiled slowly: "Didn't I say it just now, I regard you as a like-minded partner, and you are actually a partner, so you naturally have to trust each other." And didn't you just call me a brother? Can't I share this little thing with my lovely sister? ”

Although Ma Zongheng had other plans, what he said this time was from the bottom of his heart, Huang Yueying's straightforwardness, naughtyness, and temperament that he was not afraid of heaven and earth, was really angry with him. Moreover, as his fame grew, there were fewer and fewer friends and brothers who dared to act recklessly in front of him. Huang Yueying's appearance reminded Ma Zongheng of his sister who he had always been concerned about, Ma Yunlu.

Right now, Huang Yueying's figure seemed to be fused with Ma Yunlu, Ma Zongheng couldn't help but smile sincerely from the bottom of his heart, stretched out his hand, and gently stroked Huang Yueying's little head.

Huang Yueying didn't believe it at first, but when she saw Ma Zongheng's sincere smile, she couldn't help but tremble, and when she was touched by his big palm, there were still some faint feelings in her heart for some reason.

The sensitive Huang Yueying discovered Ma Zongheng's feelings, but there was still a faint longing in them, and she quickly thought of Ma Zongheng or regarded her as another person. But Rao is like this, Huang Yueying, who has also been looking forward to having a brother to accompany and protect her since she was a child, still can't suppress her feelings, and suddenly showed a smile: "Hehe, my brother said so, Ying'er is not polite!" By the way, what the hell is in the studio? I think it can breathe smoke and spit fire, so where did my brother catch a monster? ”

Ma Zongheng's brother who listened to Huang Yueying's continuous voice shouted, this voice was really like the voice of Ma Xiaoyou, which made Ma Zongheng's heart throb, and he couldn't help but smile again: "My sister is so curious, why don't you go in and see for yourself?" ”

"Just look at it, my aunt and grandmother are not afraid!" When Huang Yueying heard this, she was aroused by Ma Zongheng's strong temper, wrinkled her little nose, and made a grimace at Ma Zongheng, then she made a gesture and stepped into the little foot, but when Huang Yueying thought of the behemoth of Shicai, she couldn't help but be a little scared.

"Haha, it seems that my aunt and grandmother don't seem to be so bold to say it!" Ma Zongheng smiled back, took a strong and powerful step, and walked in without waiting for Huang Yueying.

"Hey!! Elder brother~!! Huang Yueying shouted smoothly this time, and when she saw Ma Zongheng ignoring her, she gritted her teeth in anger, and hurriedly mustered up her courage and followed quickly.

After a while, I saw Huang Yueying rushing into Ma Zongheng's studio, and saw a behemoth that looked like a tiger and a lion, and it was really full of mist, and there was a flame burning under its abdomen, which frightened Huang Yueying to scream 'wow' at first, but soon she found out that this behemoth was not a living thing, it was made of iron sheets, and there was some smell of sulfur in the spray of mist.

Ma Zongheng walked to the side of the iron-skinned liger, smiled, and said, "Are you ready to open your eyes?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Ma Zongheng stretched out his hand to look at a certain position in the lower abdomen of the iron-skinned lion and tiger beast, and it turned out to be a door. Huang Yueying was not afraid this time, she screamed in surprise, but ran to visit at a faster pace.

It is said that this iron liger is the work created by Ma Zongheng according to the principle of steam, and of course it is still in the research stage. Ma Zongheng then began to explain to Huang Yueying what the principle of steam is, and the design principle of this iron lion and tiger beast. Huang Yueying listened attentively, only to feel that Ma Zongheng had opened a door for her, presenting a new and completely different world in front of her.

said that at the same time as Ma Zongheng introduced his half-finished invention to Huang Yueying. But he turned his gaze back to Wu County, Yangzhou.

"Wow!! Cao Cao, a damn old thief, dared to order Lao Tzu to withdraw his troops!! He didn't think that my grandson Bofu would still rely on his protection!? In Sun Jiajun's tent, Sun Ce and a pair of overlords widened their eyes and roared like thunder. But again, the soldiers of the Sun family were all angry at this time, shouting and roaring angrily, and it seemed that they were eager to raise troops immediately and turn to fight Cao Cao to the death!

At this moment, someone suddenly came to report that Zhou Yu had invited two Jiangdong Junjie to come to assist, and they were waiting outside the camp at this time.

As soon as this report came out, everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed, Zhou Yu actually had an arrangement, which showed that he had already expected it. It's just that at this time, Han Dang snorted heavily: "Hmph!" Those two people actually came, just come to see them directly. Why bother to teach people to report and wait outside the camp, do they want the lord to greet them personally!? ”

As soon as Han Dang's voice fell, many soldiers immediately reacted, and they all showed anger. Some people even slapped a few sons and scolded presumptuously. At this time, Zhou Tai's face was solemn, and he arched his hand to Sun Ce and said: "It turned out to be someone invited by the military advisor, then it is by no means an ordinary person, and the military advisor specially instructed people to explain that these two people are both handsome heroes in Jiangdong, which means that they must have a certain prestige in Jiangdong." If the lord can get the help of these two people, he will definitely be able to come in handy in the future. The last general thought that it would be better for the lord to personally bring the two high-ranking talents, and the last general was willing to go with him. ”

Sun Ce, who was originally a little dark, came to his senses when he heard this, but he also knew that Zhou Yu's eyes were too high, but now he specially ordered someone to report to him, which just shows that these two people are extraordinary.

Youping is right. Good! I want to see what powerful people Gongjin invited me that week! Sun Ce said, and immediately stood up, his burly and sturdy body looked domineering!
