Chapter 134: Transforming the City

Hearing Liu Hao's question, the man who answered just now said with a smile: "The general doesn't know, this is the city from the Luoyang City Defense Treasury when he came. It's been a stuff for years, and no one will use it. When I came this time, I simply brought one, and after brainstorming, if it can be used, there will be one more weapon to defend the city in the future. ”

Liu Hao became excited when he heard it: "This thing is a city?" Why is it completely different from what you usually see? ”

The man squatted on the ground and pointed to the card slot above and said to Liu Hao: "General, please see, this card slot is used to place arrows, and more than ten can be placed at a time." The dilemma now is how to wind and how to increase the dynamics. ”

As an engineering student in his previous life, although he failed every exam, it did not prevent Liu Hao from being able to see the doorway inside. He squatted on the ground, looked at the iron frame, and simulated the state of this strange city shackle when he exerted his strength, and muttered in his mouth: "It's easy to wind, just make a gear set." It's just that ordinary bowstrings are completely inadequate, and even if they can, they can't be used a few times. ”

The man next to him listened to Liu Hao's words and asked in a daze, "What is the gear set that the general is talking about?" ”

Liu Hao first drew the gears on the ground and the steel plate that was grooved with the gears and said: "Look, through the winch, let the gears roll on this steel plate. Then wait until you get to the end, you can design a circlip or something to make the gear go down a little bit to avoid the pinion bar, and then release the circlip and launch the arrow with the help of inertia. ”

This person simulated it on the iron frame with his hand, and then looked at Liu Hao in surprise: "The general is really a god and a man, and such a subtle idea is actually at his fingertips." And by a certain worship! ”

After he finished speaking, he was about to kneel down to Liu Hao, but Liu Hao grabbed him: "I see that you talk well and are quite insightful, I don't know what your name is." ”

The man arched his hand and said, "A certain name is Guo Tao, and his ancestors have been making ordnance for generations. ”

Liu Hao looked him up and down a few times, he was really unseemly, this person was in his thirties, he looked extremely ordinary, he didn't expect that he had been doing this for generations. What do you lack the most? It is Guo Tao, a craftsman who has a certain foundation and is willing to diverge his thinking. Li Jie is really a charcoal in the snow, and he actually gave himself such a treasure.

Thinking of this, Liu Hao patted Guo Tao's shoulder: "Guo Tao, do a good job, your official body will be indispensable in the future." After speaking, Liu Hao pointed to Wang Lao Wu and said: "You must have known this Boss Wang, he was originally a blacksmith in the city, and now he is also an official of Bapin?" What are the good ideas to experiment boldly, don't feel sorry for the materials, maybe a small idea of yours inadvertently can save thousands of soldiers in my Datang. ”

Wang Lao Wu also said with a smile: "The general is right, this time I transferred you from other military camps to let everyone brainstorm and create new weapons." The drawings drawn by the general must have been read by all of you, and such a high-ranking official has dedicated his ancestral secret recipe to the Tang Dynasty, and he has worked tirelessly to compile it into a book. If I don't make some achievements, will I be worthy of the general? ”

Guo Tao listened to Liu Hao and Wang Laowu's words, and said embarrassedly: "A certain family also has the ancestor's experience in the production of instruments, and I was afraid that the general would not look down on it, after all, it was only summarized by the ancestor, and it should not be true." A certain was placed at home in the city, and when Mu Xiu was born, he brought it over for you to participate in. ”

With Guo Tao taking the lead, others also said that they wanted to sacrifice what their ancestors left behind.

Liu Hao thanked them one by one, and then arched his hand to them and said: "You can contribute your own family education to my Datang, and I will never let you suffer." After a while, one person will have fifty yuan of money, and today they will each go back to their respective homes, regardless of whether there is a family heirloom or not, the fifty yuan will be given to you. ”

Wang Lao Wu looked at Liu Hao in surprise and whispered, "General, is it too much?" ”

Guo Tao said loudly: "General, no merit will not be rewarded, I have not made an inch of merit now, how can I be embarrassed to take the reward?" When we make any achievements, it will not be too late for the general to reward them. ”

Liu Hao said with a smile: "I gave you money so that you could arrange your family affairs." The second old mother is waiting for your money to be raised, in case a foreigner threatens you to hand over the secret of the barracks, how should you choose? You accept the money, and in the next few days, I will discuss with Master Li Jie to build a special workshop, so that your family can move there, so that your family will not be coerced. ”

Wang Lao Wu said very well: "If there is any accident at home, say it quickly, and tell General Mouhe or General Lu Yue in the camp, don't do anything that is fast for relatives and enemies." In addition, if you see any suspicious people, you should also tell them, don't take any chances. In addition, don't reveal this military workshop, whether relatives and friends are outside, they can say that they are trained outside the city or whatever, it can be said that the military workshop is now the biggest weapon we rely on, and we are counting on it for future promotions. ”

When everyone in the military workshop heard this, they all knelt down on one knee and arched their hands to Liu Hao and replied: "Dare not obey your fate!" ”

Liu Hao gestured to Xiao Liu, and Xiao Liu took the two of them out of the warehouse and began to send money.

Now the funds in Liu Hao's hands are very objective, although the Maitreya treasure is not Liu Hao, but no one can say how much money there is, plus Laojun Temple still has some ownerless money brought from Xinxiang at that time, it can be said that Liu Hao has the ability to build a small city. If money can buy people's hearts, Liu Hao will not hesitate to do so. For example, now, each craftsman pays 50 yuan, which is enough for a family for one or two years.

After the money was distributed, Liu Hao said to them: "Don't work today, all of them will have a holiday today." I all go home to buy some delicious food for my family, and I have a daughter-in-law who pulls a few pieces of flower cloth or goes to the ready-to-wear store to buy a few clothes. Once your family is settled, you can study these things without distractions. ”

Wang Lao Wu saw that several people had red eyes, obviously because he was moved in his heart. He joked with a few people, and then asked a few men to drive the carriage into the city.

When the others were almost gone, Liu Hao saw Guo Tao squatting next to the city, holding a steel plate in his hand and constantly gesturing.

Liu Hao walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why don't you leave?" What to do with a steel plate? ”

Guo Tao said excitedly: "General, look at this steel plate, if you break it hard, it will produce a lot of force." I was wondering if I could use steel plates instead of bowstrings, which were not only durable, but also easy to disassemble and assemble. ”

Next to him, Wang Lao Wu took the steel plate and said with a smile: "Those new steel crossbows are bowstrings replaced by this kind of steel plates, and the strength is amazing. If it can be used for this, then the castle is not only used for defending the city, but also for field combat. ”

Liu Hao nodded: "You guys think about it, I don't understand this thing, so I can't help much." Again, don't be afraid to waste materials. That's all for today, Guo Tao, if you don't leave, you won't be able to get in the carriage. ”

Guo Tao stood up, wiped the sweat on his head, arched his hand to Liu Hao, and then walked outside.

Liu Hao looked at Guo Tao's figure and asked Wang Laowu: "Did you know each other before?" It seems that the ability is good, but I don't know how loyal it is. ”

Wang Lao Wu shook his pu fan and said with a smile: "I grew up in a workshop since I was a child, and I am very good and stable. In the army all these years, I haven't heard of any bad deeds. The general can rest assured that if he is dedicated to the army, he will not be ruined for his merits. If there are two hearts, a certain will never be tolerated. ”

Liu Hao nodded: "The safety of the Bingfang is the top priority, and nothing else is as important as this." ”

Wang Lao Wu smiled and said, "A certain nature can be saved." ”

Liu Hao looked at Wang Lao Wu and said, "Don't just be satisfied with the petty officials of the eighth grade. Since you can get an official position, then work hard to move up. ”

Wang Lao Wu arched his hand to Liu Hao: "A certain will follow the footsteps of the general, and the general will do whatever he asks!" ”

Liu Hao explained a few more words, and then left the military workshop with Xiaoliu.

Xiao Liu rode on a horse, raised his hand to cover the scorching sunlight and asked Liu Hao: "Young master, where are you going?" ”

Liu Hao smiled: "Take you to a good place!" But you have to keep it secret, this is the foundation of my family's survival, and if it spreads, I'm afraid that Your Majesty won't make me feel better. ”

Xiao Liu was nervous when he heard this, looked left and right and asked in a low voice, "Is the young master going to rebel?" ”

Liu Hao knocked his head with a folding fan: "What nonsense? Okay, I'll rebel? I made my own secret base for safety. You'll find out when you go. ”

After speaking, Liu Hao took Xiaoliu out of the camp and went west along the official road.

From the official road, turn onto the trail and follow a mountain road where a woodcutter travels.

When he arrived at the villa, Xiao Liu was completely stunned: "Young master, how did you find such a secret place?" ”

Liu Hao smiled and said: "It was left by Princess Taiping in the past, and then His Majesty withdrew the people here, and I bought it again." Remember the codes and gestures I said later, and maybe you'll be able to come by yourself later. ”

After getting off the horse, Xiao Liu knocked on the door rhythmically according to Liu Hao's instructions.

After a while, the door opened, and an old servant walked out of it, Liu Hao looked at him and said quietly: "All the fish in the moat in the west of the city are dead." ”

・・・・・・

By the time he entered the gate, Xiao Liu was completely stunned. If it weren't for Liu Hao's reminder, he wouldn't have known that the few brainless words just now were actually a code.

Liu Hao walked in front and smiled at the old servant who led the way: "Lin Yu, why is it you every time?" Don't you get tired of playing like this? What about Lin Bing? I'm looking for her today for something."

Lin Yu smiled slyly, pointed to a house and said to Liu Hao: "Read a book in the room, you go to her." After speaking, Lin Yu said to Xiao Liu: "You are the contact person in the future?" Come with me and show you here. ”

Liu Hao shook the folding fan and walked outside the room, then pushed the door and entered.

As soon as the door was opened, there was an "ah" sound, and a flying arrow shot out of the room, and then Lin Bing's shouting and scolding voice came: "Dare to peek at the old lady taking a bath, go to death!" ”
