Chapter 111: Thunderbolt
As soon as he returned to Xingyuan from the Xiaoqi station, Yuan Wei received good news that Xu Sheng was back!
It has been nearly ten days since Xu Sheng left Juchao, and if he went from Wancheng to Juchao, it would be enough to ride a fast horse for ten round-trips, so Yuan Yuan once suspected that Xu Sheng had absconded without permission?
However, in the end, it turned out that Xu Sheng was still reliable.
Not only did Xu Sheng come back, but he also really brought back Ma Jun.
However, Xu Sheng's way of bringing Ma Jun back was a little inappropriate, and he was tied back.
When Yuan Jun saw Ma Jun, Ma Jun was sitting in the prisoner car with his hair scattered, and when he heard the sound of footsteps, Ma Jun opened his eyes and glanced at Yuan Jun coldly, without any expression on his face.
However, when Ma Jun saw Liu Ye behind Yuan Fu, his eyes immediately lit up.
However, soon, Ma Jun's expression returned to indifference, and he snorted softly from his nostrils.
Obviously, Ma Jun recorded the account he was tied up by Xu Sheng on Liu Ye, thinking that Liu Ye betrayed his friend.
Xu Sheng stepped forward and reported to Yuan Weiyu: "Son, the last general is fortunate not to be dishonored, and he chased him until Xunyang, and finally caught up with Ma Jun." ”
"Wen Xiang, I asked you to invite Mr. Ma Jun, but I didn't let you tie someone up?" Yuan Wei stomped his feet, and then ordered, "Quick, hurry up and open the cage and ask Mr. Ma Jun to come out." ”
"Childe, it's not that you said that you should do whatever it takes, by all means......" Xu Sheng was dumbfounded, and he wanted to say a few words, but Yuan Wei stared at him, and the second half of the words were swallowed back into his stomach.
At that moment, Xu Sheng stepped forward to open the cage and wanted to help Ma Jun.
Ma Jun slapped Xu Sheng's hand away with one palm, and said coldly: "I can go by myself." ”
After Ma Jun walked out of the cage, Yuan Nuo stepped forward and shook it to the ground, and said with a smile: "Under Yuan No, please see Mr." ”
Ma Jun's expression eased slightly, he had heard of Yuan No's name a long time ago, the second emperor of the Zhong family, but in addition to the emperor's name, he was still sensible, and it was especially rare that he did not rely on the identity of Yuan's children, and he was respectful to him.
Although he is dissatisfied with Yuan, the etiquette cannot be abolished.
At that moment, Ma Jun returned the salute and said: "Don't dare to be such a big gift as Ming Gong." ”
Yuan Wei knew that Ma Jun had a grudge in his heart, so he snorted at the moment and said: "Wen Xiang used the cage to take Mr. hard, but he was instructing, he was really anxious to meet with Mr., and he was afraid that Mr. would not come, so he had to make this decision. ”
There is a way to stretch out his hand and not smile on his face, Yuan Jun has such a good attitude and his body is so low, but Ma Jun is not good at holding it anymore, if he doesn't let go of it, wouldn't it seem that he is very unelegant?
At that moment, Ma Jun could only say gloomily: "Ming Gong, you are really an elegant person." ”
Ma Jun's words are not praise, but implied sarcasm.
Yuan was overjoyed, knowing that Xu Sheng had offended Ma Jun.
At that moment, Yuan let go of the gate and said, "Sir, please." ”
As soon as he turned around, Yuan Wei ordered Xu Sheng again: "Wen Xiang, quickly cook tea for Mr. to make amends." ”
Xu Sheng responded to the promise, hurriedly went down to get the tea set and tea leaves, and began to cook tea.
It wasn't until Yuan Wei and Ma Jun sat down at the guest of honor that Liu Ye took a seat opposite Ma Jun, and then confessed to Ma Jun across the hall: "Deheng, it is the younger brother who recommended you to Gongzi, and the younger brother hereby apologizes to you." ”
"Ziyang, you ......" Ma Jun pointed at Liu Ye, and the words of complaint came to his lips, but he couldn't say it.
In any case, whether Liu Ye recommended him to Gongzi or not was out of good intentions, as for the unpleasant things that happened later, how could Liu Ye be blamed?
Yuan said: "I am here, and I apologize to Mr. again." ”
"Ming Gong is polite." Ma Jun knelt down and sat up to return the salute, and said, "However, in Xia De Bo is sparse, I really can't afford such an extraordinary courtesy from Ming Gong, heh." ”
Yuan Wei waved his hand and said, "Sir's words are too modest. ”
"Humility?" Ma Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know the soldiers, nor do I know the strategy, so I really can't help Ming Gong." ”
Yuan Wei laughed and said: "The reason why I will keep Mr. even if I don't hesitate to use extraordinary means is not because Mr. knows whether he knows the soldiers, let alone because Mr. knows the strategy, but because Mr. is good at the way of equipment!" ”
"The Way of the Machine?" Ma Jun was surprised when he heard this, he really didn't expect this.
In this era, the status of craftsmen is very low, and the status of craftsmen is slightly higher than that of merchants, but it is a cut worse than that of scholars and farmers! Although Ma Jun likes to study equipment, he never boasts of the way of equipment, because in this era, there is really nothing to boast about his exquisite craftsmanship.
Therefore, hearing Yuan say this, Ma Jun was very stunned.
Never before has a prince paid so much attention to the way of instruments.
"Yes, the way of the machine." Yuan Wei repeated again, and then said, "If you can get the help of Mr. in the next place, you will win 100,000 soldiers!" ”
Win 100,000 soldiers?
Ma Jun was shocked, Yuan No's words, his evaluation of him can be said to be quite high.
Yuan No's words are also a great affirmation of Ma Jun's craftsmanship, and Ma Jun can't help but have an old saying in his heart, a soldier dies for a confidant!
If nothing else, if Yuan attaches so much importance to the posture of a craftsman, Ma Jun is willing to smear his liver and brain.
After all, Ma Jun is not a master like Liu Ye, although he is also a scholar, he is more regarded as a craftsman by the world, that is, Ma Jun's heart, and he will unconsciously dwarf himself as a craftsman, so Yuan No's respect and respect are particularly rare, at least before this, Ma Jun has never met a prince who can respect a craftsman like Yuan No.
At that moment, Ma Jun got up and walked to the center of the hall, and said with a long sigh: "If Ming Gong does not give up, Jun is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”
Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately got up and helped Ma Jun up, took Ma Jun's hand again, laughed and said: "Haha, Yuan has to help Deheng today, and the big thing is harmonious." ”
Hearing Yuan say this, Ma Jun's face couldn't help but flush and he was excited.
Liu Ye also lost no time in kneeling down and getting up, and congratulated Yuan Wei: "Congratulations to the son for winning the great sage." ”
"Don't dare to be a sage, how dare you be a sage?" Ma Jun shook his head again and again after hearing this, and said, "Ziyang, you are the great sage." ”
Yuan Wei laughed, took Liu Ye's hand again, and said: "Ziyang, Deheng, you are all great sages, it's just that Ziyang is good at strategy, but Deheng is good at equipment, and he specializes in different ears, haha." ”
Liu Ye and Ma Jun hurriedly surrendered their hands, and they didn't even dare to say that they were ashamed.
Yuan invited the two of them to sit down again, and said to Ma Jun: "Deheng, I heard that you invented a device called a thunderbolt car?" ”
"This must be what Zi Yang said and Gongzi knew, right?" Now that it has been returned to the Yuan family, Ma Jun no longer hides it, and said generously, "It is true that a device was invented below, but there is no thunderbolt name, but the name of this thunderbolt given by Childe is wonderful, and it will really be called a thunderbolt in the future." ”
Yuan Wei hurriedly said: "Deheng, do you have a pattern?" ”
Ma Jun replied: "If you have a car, you should have a picture." ”
After speaking, Ma Jun took out a silk book from his sleeve and presented it to Yuan No.
Yuan Fu unfolded it, but found that a repeating crossbow was indeed drawn on the silk book, with a backer, bowstring, crossbow arm, crossbow machine, etc., but this repeater fired not an arrow, but a stone!
"It's this, it's this, it's this!" Yuan was overjoyed and incoherent.
Seeing that Yuan Wei was so excited, almost out of shape, Liu Ye and Ma Jun couldn't help but look at each other.
Yuan Wei waved the pattern in his hand and shouted: "Deheng, I need a bigger repeater, a hundred bows in parallel, and it can launch a boulder of hundreds of catties to five hundred paces away, is it feasible?" ”
Ma Jun lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said categorically: "It is feasible." ”
"Good!" Yuan Fu slammed the knot and said, "Deheng, what kind of people and utensils do you want, you can tell Ziyang, I have only one request for you, as soon as possible, as soon as possible to build the thunderbolt!" ”
The siege of Juchao has entered the fifth day, and the two armies of Sun and Yuan have begun to fight each other cruelly.
At this moment, the two sides are competing for their own will, if Yuan wants to force Sun Ce to sit at the negotiating table, he must give the Jiangdong army enough blows, at this time, if one or more thunderbolts suddenly appear on the head of Juchao City, which can launch hundreds of catties of boulders to five hundred steps away, and still aim directly at the front line of attack, can Sun Ce still be calm?
Yuan Wei just imagined the scene of the thunderbolt being launched and the Jiangdong Army's flesh and blood flying, and he was so excited that the old ** was angry.
Grandpa's, Sun Ce, Lao Tzu told you to taste the taste of thunderbolt!
