Chapter 238: The Power of Terror

The tank is now almost a collection of Datang, or all the science and technology that Yanglin can play in Datang, even if it is the god people who followed Yanglin all the way to create a tank, they actually only know a little about this thing, Yanglin can get it out in more than two months, because he is extremely familiar with the cars of later generations, loves wild survival, loves extreme sports, and naturally plays with cars, so he has a prototype on the vehicle structure that can be traced, this fake tank is actually more than three tons, in later generations, It belongs to the weight of a small and medium-sized truck, because it is powered by coal, his maximum speed is less than 20 miles per hour, and it is even lower to a pitiful 10 miles after being fully loaded, and the bloated body can only resist cold weapons, or a small amount of gunpowder bullet attacks, after all, in order to control the weight, the steel plate used by Yanglin is not very thick, compared with the heavy tanks of more than 16 tons in later generations, this is also a kind of goods.

The gunpowder shell equipped in the tank will be almost the best proportion of pyrotechnic powder, such power is enough for Datang to strike at foreign enemies, although Yanglin already has the conditions for manufacturing smokeless red powder, but does not plan to continue to develop on it, don't look at the tank loaded with this long barrel artillery caliber is not large, but compared with the ordinary black powder fired by the Shenwei cannon is not weak, and the range is longer, reaching about 150 meters, in the movement of the cannon, his impact on the enemy is naturally far better than the difficult to move Shenwei cannon.

Tested the speed of the tank on the straight Vermilion Bird Street, Yanglin drove the tank back to Xuanwu Gate again, the tank is about to be read at the time of the military parade, then it will not be a secret, so that the Wenchen generals of the Tang Dynasty have a sneak peek in the dark, and it is also the news that Yanglin drove the tank on the Vermilion Bird Street is really uncontrollable, and the good curiosity of these officials has to show them first, in fact, it is nothing to see first, I am afraid that they will be frightened by these big guys with black and bright paint, and they will not be able to sleep when they go home.

"Bang dang."

The iron lid on top of Tucker was lifted, and Yang Lin's head popped out of the first tank. For the secrecy of this thing, Yang Lin is the least concerned, unless Datang also has a traverser from the next generation, and he is also a high-level science student, otherwise even if he is allowed to enter the interior, he will not be able to understand this thing, a car that can drive automatically with fuel, which is something that Datang people have never thought of before.

"Kobayashiko"

"Heavenly Gift"

On the city tower, Li Lizhi smiled and waved her hand to Yanglin, and ran downstairs to the city tower, she hadn't seen Yanglin for many days. Miss it tightly, but she knew that Yang Lin had a difficult task in her body, so she didn't dwell on it, and at this moment, she was a little afraid of these big guys like many officials who were stunned on the city wall, but she still couldn't stop her urge to hug Yang Lin as soon as possible.

"Slow down, wait for me." Li Chengqian's left leg is always a prosthetic leg, and he can't see anything when he walks slowly step by step, and he will be limp when he runs, and he has another feeling for tanks. Perhaps, mastering this thing will be more beneficial for his smooth succession, and now the opportunity to master this thing is close at hand. In his heart, Yang Lin should have a seventy percent chance of agreeing to hand over the tank to him.

On the city wall, Li Yuan, who was dragging his old body and wanted to make a final effort, didn't know what words to use to express his feelings at the moment, and he was pretending to be in the Paradise Palace. He wanted to seek restoration, and when Yang Lin found out about this and didn't report him to Li Er, he thought he was halfway there. But after that, Yanglin always kept a distance from him, and even affected the choice of Li Ke who he wanted to support secretly, now, Li Ke was unwilling to return to Beijing, and stayed in the land of Wumiao to build roads, Yanglin refused to see him, and his only forces have begun to discourage him, from the general indications, Yanglin should have chosen to support the prince, from the moment he came back, he helped Li Chengqian out of the haze, and made a prosthetic leg to help him stand up, it can be seen that his last hope was dashed, but it was a pity that he successfully placed the chess piece next to Li Er, The chess piece that could actually launch a fatal blow to Li Er, a cool breeze blew through the Xuanwu Gate Tower in early winter, completely blowing his last strength down.

A cadre of civil and military ministers all walked down the city tower with the pace of Li Chengqian and Empress Changsun, and the inner guards did not need the signal of the eldest grandson to surround the three tanks, in their opinion, this car can only be seen from a distance, not up close, Yanglin naturally can no longer hug and hug Li Lizhi in front of so many people, in fact, it is pure nonsense to say that the two have any relationship between men and women, Yanglin just likes Li Lizhi's feeling of relying on himself, although Li Lizhi stubbornly thinks that it is the relationship between two people, so the relationship is something you believe in, It seemed to her that it was.

"Hahahaha, a Lao Tzu drop, a tank, finally got it for Lao Tzu." Gu Yue Daowen let out a strange laugh, stretched out his arms and suddenly rushed out of the crowd and rushed in the direction of Yanglin, he naturally didn't want to hug Yanglin like Li Lizhen, but hugged the iron shell of the tank firmly, and even shamelessly kissed and caressed the cold tank, but his status as the emperor's retainer also made the inner guards unable to stop him, and it was simply disgusting to the Manchu Dynasty Minister of Civil and Military Affairs in an instant.

"Xiao Linzi, this tank really doesn't need manpower, it can drive autonomously, and it can also fire gunpowder shells as powerful as Shenwei cannons?" Li Chengqian is actually no better than Gu Yue Daowen, he is also one of the people who the inner guards dare not stop, he is knocking left on the tank, looking right, and the one who asks is the eldest grandson Empress who looks at the tank with a hint of fear.

"Of course, the weight of the tank is more than 6,000 catties, and it may even reach 10,000 catties when fully loaded, who can push it?" Yang Lin explained briefly, and at the same time motioned for the inner guards to get out of the way, so that the ministers could get close to the tank.

"Weighing 10,000 pounds? Don't know how much it costs to make a tank? The Ministry of Works, Shangshu Wuji, then asked Empress Changsun.

The supervisor of the Ministry of Works, who was worried about money a few years ago, was still a panic in Qingshui Yamen, but now he is a hot figure in Datang, holding a lot of silver money in his hand, and when he sees something favorable to Datang, he thinks about mass production.

"One piece! About a million! Yang Lin said a little casually, for Wu Ji, most of the people who knew him in later generations were because her daughter Wu Meiniang became the empress, but in fact, this person was also quite talented, he was awarded the title of Duke of the Kingdom as a businessman, and was in charge of an important department of the Tang Dynasty, if his story is written, it will also be a legend.

"Sss

The sound of gasping air rang out one after another in the crowd, including Sun Wuji, the head of Zhao Gongji, who is now in charge of the most money.

One million guan is not a small amount, catch up with half of the country's tax revenue in the first year of Zhenguan, although now Datang's tax revenue has reached about 20 million guan a year, but one million guan is still not a small amount, but dare not use the country's tax revenue to manufacture tanks in batches.

"Although this car is sharp, it costs a lot of money, and the gains outweigh the losses!"

After a while, there were officials in the crowd who said, echoing the voice, in fact, Yang Lin does not hate these voices, although in addition to the technical value, the real cost of a tank is only tens of thousands of guan, but Yang Lin actually does not want to create a killing machine in his heart, one million guan, at least can make the people of Datang and a state live a carefree life, can make a small surrounding country bankrupt, why use it to make weapons.

"God bestows a horse, spending a million yuan to build a car, I'm afraid it doesn't mean His Majesty! The power of my Datang Shenwei cannon is enough to deter Xiaoxiao, although it is difficult to move, but it can also be moved, and it seems that there is no need to build this ironclad car, oh, tank car! Could it be that you want to take the opportunity to embezzle the public funds of the Moxican court? Three tanks, that's three million! Just build this iron car? I can't say it! ”

If the people present now are those veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, I am afraid that they will ask how powerful this car is, and Yang Lin still agrees with his words, because he doesn't want to have another two-month devilish overtime rush work.

"Not really! The things that the horse spent so much money to create must be useful to Datang, isn't it Xiaolinzi? "Yang Lin originally didn't want to defend himself, if he could take this opportunity to let Datang's weapon research stop here, it would be the best, because even he himself thought that with these three tanks, Datang's military strength was enough to be proud of all countries, and it was useless to invest in weapons and equipment, but Li Li questioned that the ministers were accusing Yanglin, but she didn't do it, while refuting the minister, she shook Yanglin's arm and asked him to confirm the role of the tank.

Yang Lin touched his nose, and smiled apologetically at the ministers with some embarrassment, he naturally couldn't refute Li Li's face at the moment, hurt his image in her mind, coughed twice and said: "The power of the tank is enough to make the military power of the Tang Dynasty proud of all enemy countries, I can't say how powerful it is, let's take an analogy!" Even if the enemy army is now commanding all the armies that Chang'an City is preparing to read, there are more than 100,000 troops! In addition to the city defense of Chang'an City, but it still can't stop the pace of these tanks, no, it can't stop the attack of one of them, where it is, the city wall collapses, the enemy gives way, and the houses are even more tofu scum, basically a comprehensive crush, and I don't think of anything to cure him now, wherever the tanks go, it means that all of them are destroyed. ”

Li Lizhi felt that Yang Lin's answer gave her a long face, and she didn't feel that when Yang Lin was halfway through speaking, the breathing of many civil and military ministers had become rapid, and in the back, they were pumping cold air one after another, and it seemed that they couldn't pull it out.

Indeed, if it is really like what Yang Lin said, then this million is too worth it, of course, Yang Lin is also estimated by imagination, a few tons of ironclad tanks, in Chang'an City, which is dominated by wooden buildings, is basically what to destroy, artillery fire can directly blast open the wooden gate of the imperial city, and kill into the palace, and after Yang Lin's energy consumption statistics just now, starting from Xiaobailou, and then walking back and forth on Suzaku Street, the tank has traveled at least about 20 kilometers, and the loaded fuel has consumed less than one percent, This is the benefit of anthracite coal, the continuous combustion capacity is strong, so now it can be basically assumed that the tank can travel more than 200 kilometers every time it is replenished with fuel, and 200 kilometers is equivalent to the power that can turn a few circles in Chang'an City, he can imagine that after several rounds of destruction by tanks, Chang'an City looks like a ruin.
