Chapter 146 Telescope

PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

It took 100,000 troops ten days to come to the three northern counties, which surprised the people of the three northern counties, and they could hear the sound of the army running and shouting one, two, three, four every morning when they got up!

Although Li Yao ensured the lives of the local people by releasing grain, it violated the interests of the local tyrants and squires, although the local tyrants and squires dared not speak out, but Li Yao did not want to make the relationship too stiff, so after the 100,000 troops came to the three northern counties, they decided to blow up the valley and resume normal traffic!

But the defense of Taniguchi is still the top priority, Li Yao sent a division to guard Taniguchi, 10,000 troops is not less, and there are two artillery regiments next to it to assist, guarding Taniguchi is definitely not a problem!

Now it is summer, the weather is very hot, Li Yao is to take advantage of this time to train the army, now Li Yao's 100,000 army has gone through three months of basic training, they are all considered a soldier, but in terms of fighting, it is still weaker, so Li Yao specially gathered the veterans together, combined with Li Yao's modern thinking, to create a set of 'fighting techniques'

This set of fighting techniques has been passed down and won wide acclaim from the soldiers, and the movements of the fighting techniques are very simple, but they are deadly.

Li Yao watched the soldiers train, their clothes and pants were very wide, and he thought that he should indeed design a set of military uniforms, the ancient clothes were really too inhumane!

So I found a few cloth shops in the three northern counties. Li Yao designed a combat uniform according to his own ideas, which is actually no different from camouflage uniforms.

If you make it all in the cloth shop. Li Yao's money can't support it, so Li Yao plans to open a quilt factory. Make your own military uniforms, and you can also make some necessary military supplies such as military quilts and military shoes!

The fat man also followed the army to the three northern counties, Li Yao found the fat man and handed over the task to the fat man, but learned that the fat man was selling oil, Li Yao asked: "Has the green onion cake been popularized in the army?" ”

The fat man nodded and said, "Big brother, the military food that the army ate when the army crossed the mountains this time was green onion cakes, when the soldiers just ate this kind of food." Tears of joy remained! ”

Li Yao smiled: "That's good, by the way, how much money do we have left?" ”

The fat man calculated for a moment and said: "This time the army started and bought clothes or something for them, and it cost a total of more than one million taels, plus selling some oil, and made a profit of hundreds of thousands of taels, and now there are a total of two million taels of silver left!" ”

Li Yao said: "Fatty, I want to set up a quilt factory immediately." The money will have to be in place then! ”

The fat man nodded and said, "Big brother, I know this!" I don't know who the eldest brother is going to let to build the quilt factory? ”

Li Yao said: "I have a candidate, but I think it's a bit overkill!" ”

The fat man asked, "Who is it?" ”

Li Yao looked at the east and said, "It's the person you recommended to me last time!" ”

"Big brother, are you talking about Shen Hezhi?" The fat man asked.

Li Yao nodded. said: "It's him, he did a very good job of this mission, firearms." The gunpowder was delivered on time, which is indeed indispensable! ”

The fat man also chimed in: "Big brother." In that case, you can let him build a quilt factory first. The quilt factory is also a big head, and when he takes care of the affairs of the quilt factory, he just let him go somewhere else! ”

Li Yao thought about it and was right, now his talents are still too few, he has to do this, everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as he lets a capable person start first, and if he opens the head well, it will be easier to let others take over!

Li Yao said to the scout: "Quickly call Shen Hezhi over!" ”

Shen Hezhi is not in the three northern counties now, because when the firearms were transported, Shen Hezhi was arranged to be familiar with the roads in various places in Yiguo, and the transportation of firearms would still depend on him at that time!

Li Yao arranged things and went back to Qin County, because the craftsman king wanted to get familiar with the three northern counties, so Li Yao sent a platoon of soldiers to protect the craftsman king!

Back at the residence, Li Yao began to make telescopes, Li Yao found that the role of the telescope is still very large, for example, the last time he shot the explosive package with the Ba Niu crossbow, if it wasn't for the obvious Chinese army tent on the opposite side, Li Yao would not be able to find the target so easily, if there was a telescope, it would be much more convenient, you can carefully observe the deployment on the opposite side, and you can see the residence of the other general!

The production method of a simple telescope is very simple, you can do it with concave and convex crystal lenses, this can be bought in the jade store, Li Yao is ready to use bamboo to make a telescope tube, and put the concave and convex crystal pieces in the bamboo, and the telescope is ready, Li Yao ran to the mountain, picked up the telescope and took a look, it is indeed very good, the situation two miles away can be seen clearly, it seems that this telescope is still very successful, the only pity is that it cannot be retracted, and the distance cannot be adjusted, so Li Yao found two bamboos of different thicknesses, Thin bamboo can be put inside the thick bamboo, and then fill in the lenses separately, and the telescope is ready!

Li Yao tried it again, and it was really good, the distance of two to five miles could be seen clearly, Li Yao was very satisfied with the production, and then found the fat man and said, "Fat man, look at this thing!" ”

The fat man took Li Yao's binoculars and asked suspiciously, "Is there anything strange in this bamboo?" ”

Then the fat man looked into the binoculars, and the scene in front of him made him jump, and he hurriedly said to Li Yao: "Big brother, there is something in here!" ”

Li Yao smiled: "Look at the mountains over there, do you think they are very similar!" ”

The fat man looked at it carefully, then picked up the binoculars and looked at it, and said with a frightened face: "Big brother, this thing can pull the opposite mountain in front of you!" ”

Li Yao smiled: "Haha, that's true, this thing I invented is called a telescope, you can see far away, you can call him claireye!" ”

The fat man couldn't put it down: "If there is this thing, it will definitely be a big seller!" ”

The businessman is very profitable, and Li Yao also knows it, so he said: "This thing is military supplies, think about it, you can see other people's movements five miles away, can you prepare early!" ”

The fat man thought for a while, nodded and said, "Big brother is right, this kind of thing really can't be spread!" ”

Well, Li Yao said, "Have you seen this lens?" Li Yao took out the lens of the telescope and put it in the fat man's hand!

The fat man took the lens and looked at it carefully, it seems to be a crystal?

Li Yao nodded and said, "This is crystal, I need you to get a thousand sets of the same crystal lenses!" ”

The fat man was surprised: "A thousand sets? ”

Li Yao nodded, yes, how much do you estimate it will cost?

The fat man shook his head, I'm not sure, maybe a few taels of silver, I didn't look at this crystal very good!

Li Yao said: "Since there is no problem economically, let's do it, the sooner the better!" ”

The fat man nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go buy crystals right away!" ”
