In a city gate tower located on the north side of the Great Wall, looking at the tent of the Liaodong military camp stretching across the river, a staff member of the Qin army wearing scribe clothes said this sentence.

Deng Mao didn't know that Zhang Jiashi's calm was very weird, but in such a situation, it was unlikely that he would be able to know what Zhang Jiashi was thinking.

Deng Mao was not despising Zhang Jiashi and not preparing for anything, but in the current situation, the scouts he sent out, in the scouts with Zhang Jiashi's troops, suffered very heavy losses after many small-scale scuffles. It became very difficult to know what Zhang Jiashi was preparing for or what unusual troop movements he had.

For Deng Mao, Zhang Jiashi has not been attacking, he does not find it strange, after all, although the Great Wall of Shangjun is not as strong and towering as the Great Wall of Yunzhong County and the north of Jiuyuan County. But compared to the short Great Wall of Liaodong County, it is still not an existence that the other party can despise.

In addition, after sufficient preparations, the Liaodong Army was not willing to pay a very large price to fight hard in such a large-scale operation, which is understandable.

But this situation is indeed too quiet, and the silence makes him feel that such a situation is impossible.

"So what do you think the rebellious Zhang Jiashi has planned?"

Deng Mao didn't look back, but directly said such a question that he himself was quite puzzled about.

The reply he got made Deng Mao shake his head and smile bitterly: "This ...... I don't know. ”

Deng Mao was not angry, after all, in such a situation, it was understandable that they didn't know what was going on.

He knew one thing better than many people, that is, the Shang Jun Battalion, an intelligence organization that was supposed to serve the emperor of the Great Qin Empire, almost all of them defected to Zhang Jiashi's lineup. If it weren't for this, it was unlikely that they would not have been able to know what Zhang Jiashi was thinking about until now.

If Deng Mao thinks carefully about Zhang Jiashi's "abnormality", especially from Zhang Jiashi's point of view, maybe Deng Mao will find a trace of clues.

Although Zhang Jiashi asked Su Teng to be in charge of the defense and government affairs of Jiuyuan County and Yunzhong County, but more often than not, when the troops of Jiuyuan County were only allowed to act with the army, the troops under Zhang Jiashi's command would actually be more.

However, under the premise that there was no way to know how many men and horses Zhang Jiashi's Liaodong Army had, even if Deng Mao really felt that this kind of thing was unusual, he would not have thought that Zhang Jiashi would actually take the risk of sending people around Henan, and then quickly go north after seizing a few exits.

As for Jiang Lie, the former county guard of Jiuyuan County, who was entrusted by Zhang Jiashi this time, Deng Mao did not know the other party, but he did not know that Jiang Lie also went south with the army, and then penetrated into Henan between the movements of the Hetao.

The Qin troops in Henan were gradually transferred back to Shangjun or Longxi County, and only some middle and high-ranking officers knew such information.

In the hearts of many grassroots Qin officers and soldiers, it is more believed that the comrades in Henan were scattered after the fierce battle with the Xiongnu rather than entering Shangjun or Longxi County in large numbers.

is like that hundred generals, if Deng Mao knew what the other party thought, he didn't know what he should say. But it was too late now, because at such a time, Jiang Lie was leading a group of light horsemen and quickly approaching this exit from the south.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

Chen Ping still had some thoughts in his heart about the man in front of him with a somewhat cold expression.

After all, in the face of such a person, although Chen Ping is not a powerless person, the difference in strength between the two sides is the difference between the abyss.

It's not that he didn't think about why the other party would personally deliver the letter. After all, from the Great Wall, which is very well defended by the enemy, it is still a small problem to convey the intelligence of Jiang Lie and others without the corresponding strength. If you are hunted and killed by the other party because of your lack of strength, it will be a failure.

After reaching out to take the information in this person's hand, Chen Ping glanced at the other party, and still asked the other party: "I don't know what Mr. Gai plans to do next?"

The person known as Mr. Gai did not look back, but after turning his back to Chen Ping for a while, he said, "Mr. Chen, the contemptible person is going to Xianyang." ”

Chen Ping, who heard this, looked at the man who left leisurely after saying this, and slowly opened a note in his hand.

It said that about four hours later, that is, some time after noon, Jiang Lie's troops would be able to carry out the corresponding battle.

Chen Ping slowly put away the note and quickly came to Zhang Jiashi's tent.

Seeing Chen Ping arrive at such a time, Zhang Jiashi, who was drinking a bowl of soy milk, raised his head in some astonishment.

But after reading the note that Chen Ping handed him, Zhang Jiashi fell into deep thought.

About a minute later, Zhang Jiashi said to Yu Yong, who was standing aside: "You asked General Wang, General She, and others to come over." ”

"Whoa!"

After hearing Zhang Jiashi's words, Yu Yong quickly hugged his fists and took his orders.

......

Ten minutes later, the people who were ordered to be summoned by Zhang Jiashi came to Zhang Jiashi's camp at about such a time.

And the last one to arrive was the original Yanmen County Shou Hupu. Hu Pu, who was the commander of the left wing of the army, after entering the camp, saw Zhang Jiashi and many other people, all gathered in front of a thing called a sand table, thinking or discussing in detail.

Zhang Jiashi himself has not tried to make a sand table, because of the unfamiliarity with some raw materials and the fact that many places are only half-understood, the sand table made by Zhang Jiashi cannot be used at all.

However, after Zhang Jiashi asked Xu Fu and these scholars to join the corresponding research, Xu Fu and others had made corresponding improvements after many attempts, and sent the sand table made as a model near Dingxiang County to Zhang Jiashi for a period of time before Zhang Jiashi's troops went south in Jiuyuan County.

Although there are some details that cannot be perfected, it has to be said that at the military level, such a sand table has been able to become a usable invention in a large aspect.

A few small squares sent by Xu Fu became the production staff of this sand table. They also went through a long period of corresponding training in the village near Dingxiang City in Liaodong County.

At the very least, a few alchemists who will not make too many mistakes and can try to improve some of the shortcomings of the sand table can indeed accurately follow some of the requirements put forward by Zhang Jiashi, and after the corresponding intelligence description, they can make a fairly accurate sand table.

......

People who have seen the sand table for the first time are naturally very surprised by the accuracy of this thing, because they can't find very obvious errors and omissions.

Such a category is more due to some rounded rulers and astronomical scales and other gadgets made by Zhang Jiashi's Liaodong soldiers.

After joining such a group as Fangshi, the quality of Liaodong military under Zhang Jiashi's command has been more or less improved in many aspects of tools and corresponding raw materials.

If the Mohists are a leader in physics, then the category of Fangshi is now the elite of chemistry.

Although it is said that even in later generations, there is still a very clear boundary between the two, not to mention the current one, the category of chemistry, which is more of a discipline in the hazy stage.

However, there is no denying that there is a complementary relationship between many disciplines. It's like such an improvement in the level of military production, and the chemical knowledge of the alchemists can be regarded as a great contribution.

At the very least, a relatively primitive hardened coking coal made by a raw coal purification method that costs a considerable amount of money is indeed more effective in improving the quality of forged weapons quite a lot.

Under such a premise, Zhang Jiashi decided to order Xu Fu and Han Zhong, as well as some scholars who also had considerable knowledge, to become a tutor within a suitable time, and to start teaching some knowledge as a discipline when the Liaodong Academy officially entered use.

On the other hand, Zhang Jiashi ordered his command to gradually lift the arrest order of the other party in the control area. Maybe many ways do not want to become a "civil servant", but Zhang Jiashi believes that as long as more and more people can contribute their knowledge and strength to chemistry-related levels, science and technology products based on chemistry or need to use chemistry to improve their level will inevitably get better development.

Because Zhang Jiashi tasted another sweetness brought to him by these alchemists at such a time.

......

After the first-generation grenade incident that Zhang Jiashi himself had to give up. Zhang Jiashi had to let Xu Fu and others continue to return to the "origin" and continue to study the production of black powder weapons.

After Zhang Jiashi learned that the Great Qin Empire or some other Warring States countries could actually produce such a thing as chromium salt under some kind of coincidence, Zhang Jiashi knew a lot of things, and it was not exactly what some later generations said, and it was impossible to do it at this level of science and technology.

For Zhang Jiashi, being able to produce chromium salt products in small quantities and with low purity is a very happy result.

The solution obtained by using these chromium salts to dissolve can effectively extend the operating life of a gear after being applied to the surface of the gear.

Of course, the amount of chromium salts produced in these small batches cannot meet even one-fifth of the demand. And the corresponding cost made Zhang Jiashi so depressed that he vomited blood.

Therefore, in such a situation, Zhang Jiashi can only give priority to these chromium salts to be used in the mechanical parts of the crossbow to extend the combat life of a crossbow as much as possible.

Zhang Jiashi didn't think about asking these alchemists to drum up such things as oil to see if they could make lubricating oil or something, but when there was no crude oil, it was still impossible to do such a thing out of nothing.

Of course, there is no pure lubricating oil, and these alchemists can do some things that lubricating can do by making a concentrated or hardened animal and vegetable oil paste that is made through the corresponding process.

It's a pity that the shelf life of this ointment is quite short, and the production cost is not too low, and the possibility of mass production does not exist for the time being.

Perhaps, this kind of thing, which is more like an emergency product, is not very suitable for the current Liaodong Army, at least, many crossbowmen and chariot crews in Liaodong County do not think that this kind of thing has much effect.

Of course, this kind of emergency product is not what Zhang Jiashi is looking forward to the most, what Zhang Jiashi is most looking forward to is naturally the black powder weapon that has once again achieved the corresponding results.

......

Compared with the corresponding products made by Zhang Jiashi in the Battle of the Great Wall, and the first batch of grenade products that were consumed in the Battle of Julu before, these black powder weapons researched by Xu Fu's alchemists were more products of corresponding improvements based on Zhang Jiashi's black powder model.

It's like that kind of black powder bag, Zhang Jiashi asked the accompanying priest to explain accordingly:

In this way, the black powder pack can still be thrown at a distance using a catapult. The main improvements are in the design of the fuze and the black powder bag:

In contrast to Zhang Jiashi's oil-soaked linen strips, which are placed in the middle of the black powder pack, and on the outside is a layer of iron plate that can prevent wind, and what wraps these black powders is a layer of waxed linen cloth that can resist direct combustion for a short time.

And this fuse is a strip of linen dyed with black powder instead of oil-soaked linen.

After many tests, the safety of this black powder bag is not bad, and the wax linen is also effective in avoiding contact between the open flame and the black powder inside.

Of course, it is not without corresponding accidents, but it is undeniable that this kind of thing can operate more effectively on the battlefield rather than such a product that does not have much practical significance.

After the corresponding tests, Zhang Jiashi found that this black powder bag was used as a stone thrower, and there were still some defects, but compared with the batch of samples he produced, it was not a comparison at all.

According to Zhang Jiashi's plan, that is, in this operation, try to use this weapon.

Of course, according to these alchemists, the best way to use this black powder bag is not to throw it, but to use a bed crossbow modified to create a catapult frame to launch the iron box.

Zhang Jiashi also conducted the corresponding practical test, and found that this kind of black powder bag ejected through the elastic force of the bed crossbow can indeed be more stable, and the probability of effective explosion has also increased a lot.

However, relatively speaking, the effective range of this method of use is not too long, and with a 45-degree angle of ejection, an early explosion often occurs.

Faced with such a situation, Zhang Jiashi still felt a little helpless.

The accuracy and reliability of the stone thrower are much worse, but the range is a problem when using the corresponding specifications of bed crossbows for modification.

Under such a circumstance, Zhang Jiashi had no choice but to plan to test the actual combat of this kind of product, which had already produced a certain amount of products, in such an operation.

......

In the following pre-war meeting, Zhang Jiashi did not plan to storm the Great Wall area where Deng Mao had stationed heavy troops to defend it from the beginning, but planned to try the use of this weapon first.

Of course, Zhang Jiashi was very troubled by one thing, that is, even the range of the catapult could be suppressed by the heavy crossbow placed by Deng Mao on the Great Wall with a longer range.

Obviously, it is not a good idea to use such a black powder bag directly. Because I am afraid that there are not too many black powder packs to be launched, the officers and soldiers who operate these black powder bags are more likely to become "hedgehogs".

Naturally, Zhang Jiashi did not want to cause many officers and soldiers to lose their lives because of such useless work because of his own ideas.

Obviously, without troops to attract the attention of the garrison of the Great Wall, Zhang Jiashi would not have been able to get the results he wanted in this arrangement.

It's just that it is not a good idea to let a "cannon fodder" army attract Deng Maojun who is defending the Great Wall, like such an arrangement of sacrificing others to achieve his own goals, Zhang Jiashi has always disagreed.

Moreover, even if Zhang Jiashi really planned to send cannon fodder troops to solve such a problem, it was not necessarily possible for Zhang Jiashi to get the results he wanted.

At the very least, for the opponent in this battle, it is not a good choice for him to test.

After all, what they were going to do this time was not to test the performance of this weapon and change the goal of why they were going to conduct such an operation.

Zhang Jiashi didn't want to be wiped out by Jiang Lie, He Huai and others because of such a thing. If something like this happens, he himself will feel how big a problem it will be.

So under such a premise, Zhang Jiashi gave up his unrealistic ideas, but gently looked at the sand table in front of him, and muttered to himself: "What should I do?"

......

There are many defects in this sand table, and a large part of them is that Zhang Jiashi and Chen Ping are not very clear about the details of Deng Mao's garrison in and around the Great Wall.

On this sand table, there are many places where there is only a brief planting of flags that may have rotating troops.

Of course, Zhang Jiashi didn't have a solution to this problem, he pondered slowly, and muttered to himself: "Deng Mao shouldn't have some means of disguise, right?"

After saying this, Zhang Jiashi asked the others to calm down first, while he himself took Yu Yong and others and walked out of the camp directly.

............................................................ Dividing line ..........................................

On the edge of the river where the water was flowing slowly, Zhang Jiashi took Yu Yong and some personal guard knights, looking at the outline of the Great Wall about two or three miles behind, he slowly recited a spell, and a grass dragonfly woven from grass blades in his hand slowly flew into the air as if it had life......
