The giant weapon propelled by using a four-wheeled vehicle as a pedestal is the brainchild of Ji Xinyuan's busy work in the past few days. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Ji Xinyuan recalled the ancient giant cold weapon books he had studied, and his favorite was this kind of weapon that overshadowed the enemy-the ballista, a giant lethal weapon that did not rely on gunpowder, which can be described as the best interpretation of human creativity.

In 399 BCE, Dionysus of the Greek city-state of Sierra faced a threat of force from the powerful Carthaginians. At this time, a weapon that made other forces talk about the tiger was born - Dionysus used the results of mechanical research - torsion springs to invent the ballista, that is, using the torsional force generated by two tightly tied leather ropes as the power, driving the crossbow arm to drive the bowstring to throw projectiles or arrows.

The power of the ballista is enormous, and it can throw a projectile close to 30 kg to a distance of more than 250 meters.

The drawing of this kind of weapon structure diagram is simply not a problem for a genius engineer like Ji Xinyuan. His passion and love for invention and design led to the creation of a series of ingenious products that built his real-life corporate empire.

Even if he has not touched engineering for many years after coming to the Three Kingdoms, the things designed by the ancients are relatively simple compared to modern times, and after Ji Xinyuan understood the principle of design, he drew the sketch of the gourd in the same way, and added his own creativity - adding a wooden base with wheels to this giant weapon that is inconvenient to transport.

When the rumbling sound of ballistas came from a distance, and then from the center of the battlefield, Yuan Jun was all dumbfounded, and he was at a loss for what to do. They had never seen such a colossal weapon, its movement as deafening as a monstrous beast trampling the ground, and its intricate shape made them marvel at human intelligence, but they did not know that it was a post-man-made object.

And that wisdom does not come from the Chinese people, but from the ancient Greeks. The ballista was invented in Greece, but it was the Romans who really pushed the ballista to its peak.

But today, Ji Xinyuan has applied the technology of 200 years later to the Three Kingdoms, and applied it to the era when there was only Jin Ge Iron Horse. When the soldiers of the Yuan army saw the weapons of the Wei army, and then looked at the pitiful spears, bows and arrows they held in their hands, they suddenly felt powerless.

And when the ballista was transported to the battlefield and put in place, it confirmed their opinion. Two soldiers placed heavy arrows on the crossbow arms, and three people at each end pulled the leather ropes vigorously.

With that huge thrust, the giant arrow flew out of the ballista like a wild horse, accurately hitting a general of the Yuan army, and the man and horse were shot away a hundred meters away, and the thunderous arrow penetrated the corpse, nailing the general to the hillside, and the blood spurted out from the huge hole in his body, splashing on the face of the soldier who had been frightened to the side.

Yuan Shao was also not possessed by his soul at this time, he never thought that the Wei army would have such a powerful lethal weapon, his face was blue and his lips were white, and he ordered in a trembling voice:

"Don't ...... Fluster! The shieldmen took up their positions...... The enemy is nothing but ...... Paper Tiger ......"

'Do you say you have no clothes?' with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son. How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the child. How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son. ’

At the sound of an order, the Yuan army set up an airtight defensive phalanx, and the shield soldiers stood in 5 columns, forming a complementary trend before and after, and the soldiers hated the same enemy, and the mood was high, and the defensive formation was like an iron wall.

However, another giant arrow shot like a bamboo, the bronze shield was easily penetrated like papier-mâché, as the saying goes, 'the end of a strong crossbow can't wear through Lu Min', but the terrible thing is that this giant arrow even pierced through 6 units directly with a shield before stopping, and the surrounding soldiers were also knocked to the ground due to this huge momentum, and a corner of Yuan's defensive formation was instantly defeated.

These two arrows were only the first attempt of the Wei army to test the power of ballistas, and then the soldiers next to the dozens of ballistas began to operate their weapons. For a moment, dozens of arrows were shot at the same time, and Yuan Jun could clearly hear their whistling sound from the wind, like the wild howl of a hungry wolf.

This attack can be described as subduing the tiger and the dragon, and the shield phalanx of the Yuan army fell one after another like dominoes, and the battlefield where they were was already a field of corpses, rivers of blood, a miserable scene.

The cruelty of this war has exceeded everyone's imagination, not only Yuan Jun, but even the firers of the ballista feel that every time they pull the 'trigger', they will commit a mortal crime.

This kind of unfair way of fighting can also be said to destroy humanity and lose conscience, but Ji Xinyuan can't manage it so much, and there has always been a cloud: 'Soldiers are not tired of cheating.' 'Who calls himself so clever!' How can there be so many ethics and morality on the battlefield, it's just a game of life and death!

Ji Xinyuan safely hid in the large camp behind the Wei army, where he could only hear the loud sound of ballista firing, but he could not hear the terrible screams of Yuan Jun after he was killed. He had indeed done something bad that hurt the heavens, and he did not dare to witness this massacre, but now he was dancing with his hands, and he pulled out the green sword and began to sing, the color of the green sword was still dim in his hand, but under his burning gaze, in his fanatical heart, it was already full of light.

Ji Xinyuan was waiting, waiting for the sentinel who would arrive soon after, to tell him the news that he had been waiting for for more than ten years. 'Battle of Guandu! Victory! ’

Yuan Jun thought that the Wei army was in decline, and rushed down the hill in a hurry, but now it was all on the flat ground, with no obstacles to cover it around, and it was like a 'fish and meat' naked waiting for the ballista to be 'slaughtered'.

Without the defense of the shield soldiers, the other archers and cavalry fled in all directions without purpose, and the battlefield was chaotic for a while. Yuan's million-strong army, killed by ballistas, trampled to death by his colleagues, thrown down and killed by frightened warhorses bouncing indiscriminately, is now almost worn out.

"Lord...... Lord, let's go! ”

Xu You was so frightened that his pants were wet at this time, and he used all his strength to force out a sentence.

And Yuan Shao was like a miserable white corpse, stiff in place. He still feels that this battle of Guandu is like a dream, why was the Yuan army, which was a sure victory, why was it beaten by that inexplicable weapon.

'Cao Cao, are you a human or a god?' Unaware, he could only think like this, but he didn't know that he had lost to a brilliant bald head.

Yuan Shao didn't hear what Xu You said at all, he still stood still, and an arrow shot on the sand less than 5 meters away from him, raising up the dust in the sky, and the huge sound made him have a painful tinnitus, and he came back to his senses and found that his life was in danger.

"Withdraw...... Remove...... Withdrawal ......"

He gave the order hesitantly, but his voice was unusually quiet, and it seemed too weak in this chaotic and noisy battlefield.

However, he didn't realize this, but turned around and ran up, followed by Xu You and several generals.

"Run! The lord has run away! ”

When the soldiers of the Yuan army saw Yuan Shao fleeing in the wilderness, their morale was gone, and they began to flee in panic one after another.

For a while, the sound of horses' hooves, earth-shattering cries, and dusty whistling were mixed together, and Yuan's army was already defeated. Seeing this opportunity, Cao Ren raised his weapon again and ordered the remaining soldiers to pursue and kill the remnants of Yuan's army.

At this moment, even the wounded Wei soldiers were like invincible gods of war in the eyes of this fleeing rabble, even if their movements were stiff and slow to swing their weapons, Yuan Jun would lose the will to fight back due to panic.

Yuan Shao and his entourage rushed up the hill, and finally left the range of the ballista, and continued to flee towards the camp. In the process of escaping in a hurry, he didn't forget to ask Xu You with a handful of snot and tears:

"That...... What about the old man? ”

The idea of taking the initiative to attack the Wei army was his idea, and Yuan Shao would not forget that he must make the old man pay the price of blood.

But what the old man said to him was sincere and reasonable. The defeat in the battle of Guandu is not the old man's fault, nor is it his Yuan Shao's fault, if you want to blame, you can only blame the ghost of Ji Xinyuan for making the god poor, and blame the traverser for the power of twisting the world.

And the old man, who had long disappeared without a trace, was wise and foolish, and offered his words to Yuan Shao in a serious manner, but in his heart he had already expected that there were extraordinarily intelligent traversers in the Wei army. Why Wei Jun and not Yuan Jun? Yuan Datou may feel that he is already a 'wronged leader' at this moment, but if he has the courage of Cao Cao, and the traversers are all admired, the ending may not be like this.

But Cao Cao, who is still locked up in Xuchang, has a better ending than him Yuan Shao?

The pursuers behind him were getting closer and closer, and the momentum was menacing, and Yuan Shao's remnants and weak generals had exhausted their last bit of strength.

"Why!"

When Yuan Shao was captured by Wei Junsheng, he knelt on the ground, widened his eyes and asked Qingtian - he was unwilling, unwilling.

……

"Report! Guandu ......"

A sentry hurriedly ran into Ji Xinyuan's military tent, knelt down on one knee, and said in a fist-hugging manner.

Before he finished speaking, Ji Xinyuan rushed up to him, and he knelt down to him without any distinction between kings and ministers. He wanted to help Prime Minister Ji up, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he took it back - Ji Xinyuan's noble body, how could a small soldier touch it, if he accidentally hurt someone's head, wouldn't it ruin the future of Great Wei?

Ji Xinyuan, who knelt down to the soldiers, was already in tears at this moment. Tears had blurred his countenance, and his hands on the ground were trembling.

No need for the sentry to say, he also knows, victory! He Ji Xinyuan succeeded! He did it against the sky! It has achieved the feat of reversing the huge wheel of history by a traverser who has never been seen before or since!

What he doesn't know is that when the historical deviation of the virtual world travels to a certain value, the world will be restarted, and everything will return to the starting point.

But it doesn't seem like he needs to worry about it.

Because, he can't predict what will happen in the future......

He can only temporarily think that he is above history......

"Lord...... Yuan Shao has been captured alive by our army, but there are still some remnants of Yuan's army that have escaped, such as Liu Bei's army......"

Seeing that Ji Xinyuan had already stood up, the sentry continued to report.

Unexpectedly, Ji Xinyuan wiped away his tears and said soberly and contemptuously:

"Liu Bei? Phew! What is he? Like today, is there anything else that can threaten me Ji Xinyuan? ”

Ji Xinyuan has returned to his usual state, and the sense of accomplishment is like a flame to him, and he comes and goes quickly.

Perhaps a person with a sense of mission is different from mortals, who can easily accept the novelty of great joy and sorrow, and then quickly devote himself to a new cause.

But perhaps the source of this state is simply a heart that can never be satisfied, a greedy desire that has no upper limit......
