Chapter 954: Eight Dragons Geodynamic Instrument
"Kill!"
Zheng Zhilong braved the wind and waves, led 300 small boats, braved the rain of arrows of the Goryeo army, and stormed the shoals.
The arrow towers set up on the shore and the archers of the Goryeo Kingdom shot arrows indiscriminately, covering Zheng Zhilong's fleet!
An arrow hit the cowhide shield in Zheng Zhilong's hand, almost shooting the shield through!
Hundreds of Zheng Jiashui soldiers were killed by random arrows and fell into the sea.
Three hundred small boats ran aground near the seashore, Zheng Zhilong jumped into the shallows, and attacked the earthen wall and arrow tower set up by Li Chenggui with a sword and shield in hand!
More than 2,000 soldiers of the Zheng family's sailors followed Zheng Zhilong to attack!
"They actually went ashore!"
"Defend the earthen wall!"
The soldiers of the Goryeo Kingdom panicked for a while and hurriedly shot arrows at Zheng Zhilong and others.
However, Zheng Zhilong made a big move and attacked under the earthen wall at any cost.
The soldiers of the Zheng family sailed on top of the Arhats, climbed the earthen wall with their bare hands, and cut down the defenders of the Goryeo Kingdom!
The height of the earthen wall set up by the sea of Goryeo was less than three meters, and one section of the earthen wall was captured by Zheng Zhilong.
Zheng He saw that Zheng Zhilong had a foothold on the shore, so he ordered the whole army to attack, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Fubo army landed on the shore one after another.
"The army of Goryeo, but that's it!"
Zheng Zhilong pulled out the Yanling sword, and a Goryeo military commander was killed by him.
The Goryeo archers on the arrow tower were cut down by the soldiers of the Zheng family sailors brought by Zheng Zhilong and rolled down from the arrow tower.
The army of the Goryeo Kingdom in Kaijing gradually reacted, and Li Chenggui, the king of Goryeo Kangxian, personally gathered 200,000 soldiers and horses to fight against Zheng Zhilong!
Li Chenggui was far more talented than other military generals of the Goryeo Kingdom, concentrating 50,000 archers, investing millions of arrows, and destroying 10,000 people in the Liaodong army!
The two armies are bounded by an earthen wall, tugging back and forth!
In the Jixia School Palace in Xia City, Zhuge Liang was observing a magical prop.
This is a special treasure created by Zhang Heng, an ancient scientist of the Eastern Han Dynasty recruited by Chutian, - the geodynamic instrument.
The size of the geodynamic instrument that Zhang Heng spent a year building exceeded everyone's imagination.
This one is one zhang high, cast with fine copper, there are eight dragons outside, there are toads under it, the surface is carved with turtles and birds and beasts in the Seal Wen Mountain, just like a giant tripod.
Zhuge Liang stood in front of the Eight Dragons Earth Movement Instrument, and he even looked small.
After the Eight Dragons Geodynamic Instrument was created by Zhang Heng, it became the treasure of the town palace of Jixia School Palace.
Suddenly, the bite of wooden gears sounded inside the Eight Dragons Geodynamic Instrument, and everyone in the Jixia School Palace was shocked.
The effect of the Eight Dragons Geokinetic Instrument indicates that an earthquake is about to occur!
"Incredible......
Zhuge Liang witnessed the shaking of the ground motion instrument, and the dragon's head in the direction of "shock" spit out an iron ball and fell into the mouth of the toad, and three seals of "Right Beiping" appeared on the back of the toad.
"There will be a dragon movement in Youbeiping County, immediately inform Youbeiping Taishou, and take timely precautions and disaster relief!"
There are small officials of Qin Tianjian in Jixia School Palace, who are specially responsible for guarding the ground motion instrument.
The geodynamic instrument had just been cast, and it soon showed its magical ability to predict earthquakes.
The geodynamic instrument created by Zhang Heng was even incredible to Zhuge Liang, who was young at this time.
Not only Zhuge Liang, but also the scholars and Confucians of the Jixia School Palace were all surprised.
But they want to know if the geodynamic scanner can really accurately predict earthquakes.
If earthquakes can be predicted accurately, even if the predicted location is not detailed, the damage caused by earthquakes can also be reduced.
The Eight Dragons Geokinetic Instrument is already one of the imperial artifacts.
Right Beiping County Taishou Xian Yufu received the news from Xia Cheng, and couldn't help but wonder: "Is there really a person in the world who can predict the earth dragon?" ”
Xian Yufu thought it was incredible, but as the Taishou of Youbeiping County appointed by Chutian after the unification of the north, he had to obey the orders of the Xia Wangfu, prepare food, and order the counties to evacuate the population.
On the third day of the geomorphosis warning, an earthquake occurred in a city built by the former player lord in Youbeiping County, and a city wall and a thousand houses collapsed, but only three people were killed or wounded.
"It's true...... Xia Wangfu is really a clever calculation! ”
Xian Yufu led the officials to come to the disaster relief, and found that the Xia Wangfu had predicted the earthquake in advance, and he was more loyal to the Xia Wangfu.
The news of the earthquake in Beiping County on the right came back to Xia City, and the Jixia School Palace was in an uproar!
The Eight Dragons Geodynamic Instrument really predicted the movement of the Earth Dragon!
Technology is the primary productive force!
A group of great Confucians had to admit that the Mo family had the value of existence.
The Mohists like to fiddle with these machines, which can be regarded as a group of ancient craftsmen, which makes it easier to give birth to scientists, but unfortunately they have never been reused by rulers.
There are eight dragons to defend the Han Empire, which can reduce thousands of casualties every year.
The Eight Dragons Geodynamic Instrument has therefore become a sacred object of the Jixia School Palace, and from time to time there are NPC scholars who come to burn incense and kneel down, completely regard the Eight Dragons Geokinetic Instrument as a god.
The beliefs of ancient China are also very simple and pragmatic.
Zhang Heng also has his own place in the Jixia School Palace.
Zhang Heng spent a year building the Eight Dragons Geokinetic Instrument and is currently making an armillary sphere.
The armillary sphere is also a special treasure, and its ability is even more magical than that of the Eight Dragons Geodynamic Instrument, which can predict other natural disasters, such as snow disasters, meteorites, and floods. The armillary sphere takes three years.
……
"My lord, there was an earthquake in Beiping County, one dead and two injured."
"There is a small group of bandits in Baibo Valley in Hedong County, about hundreds of people, and they are harming one side."
"The Yellow River flooded and flooded at least five counties, destroying 10,000 houses and displacing 100,000 people."
Chutian gathered troops in Xuchang and prepared to attack Nanyang, and Fang Xuanling, as a Shangshu order, reported to Chutian about the natural disasters in the territory.
In addition to fighting and killing, Chu Tian, as the biggest lord, also had to face cumbersome internal affairs.
The territory is too large, and all kinds of disasters have occurred one after another.
The earthquake in Youbeiping County, because of the existence of the Eight Dragons Geodynamic Instrument, reduced the damage caused by the earthquake.
"Order the Taishou of Hedong County to send troops to attack the remnants of the Baibo Army and kill its leader. As for the Yellow River......"
The flooding of the Yellow River, which is a natural disaster since all dynasties, is not uncommon, and at the same time it is extremely destructive.
Every time the Yellow River floods, at least one million taels of silver must be invested to control the Yellow River.
"Ordered Su Shi to serve as the Taishou of Wei County to control the flood. The treasury allocated funds, Li Kui coordinated the matter, and Fan Zhongyan served as the assassin of Jizhou, and joined forces with Su Shi to calm the flood. ”
Chu Tian thought about it for a while, and sent Fan Zhongyan and Su Shi, who had the ability to control the water, to Wei County to rectify the flood.
At this time, the flooding of the Yellow River occurred in the area of Wei County, and the impact was not small.
The seat of Wei County is Yecheng, a huge city with a population of one million.
If Yecheng is damaged by floods, it will have an impact on Jizhou's tax revenue.
When Chutian attacked Yecheng, it once flooded the city, and now Wei County was once again affected by floods.
"In addition, gather the world's great talents for water control, but all those who have the ability to control water, regardless of their background, are all appointed, and high-ranking officials are generous."
Chutian took advantage of the flood of the Yellow River and issued a recruitment order in Xuchang.
There used to be a large number of lords in the north, and they recruited a lot of special talents, and there were always people who were good at controlling water.
Chu Tian believes that the northern territory is too big, and no one knows whether there are still civil ministers and military generals and special talents.
Small hidden in the wild, big hidden in the city, some talents are not necessarily willing to go out, but choose incognito.
It is not easy for this lord to fight wars and control floods.
"Hedong, Guanzhong, Xiliang area, because of the pacification of the Guanzhong War, the soldiers are in chaos, there are heroes gathered in the countryside, build a dock fort to protect themselves, and avoid rebellious soldiers and conscription. If all the dock forts were demolished, the population would be millions. ”
Fang Xuanling reported another thing to Chu Tianyu, who was about to fight.
"Let the officials from all over the country go to appease them, and those who do not obey will send troops to attack them."
