When it comes to standardized manufacturing of weapons, it is not something that only existed in later generations, but in the Qin Dynasty.

It is made like an assembly line in later generations, of course, it will not be exactly the same thing, but the ancients can understand it if you explain it.

But here, Cao Ang is not referring to standardization.

The simplest example is the tank of World War II in later generations, which is simple, cheap, and has a large number of tanks, which won the complex and fine performance.

It's a war mentality, and you don't have to be so elaborate when you're using it in huge quantities.

If a crossbow is scrapped with ten high-quality firings, it is acceptable.

That's because a soldier on a real battlefield may not have a chance to fire ten times......

"Kong Ming's hands and feet, it's really to my liking."

Cao Ang smiled, "Force, do you think that under high-intensity use, this crossbow will only break one part?" ”

The Force didn't know what he was thinking, and nodded, "Yes, the rest is fine." ”

"That's good, you follow this as a model, make a large number of crossbow machines, let's get a thousand first."

"What! Childe, this crossbow machine has a huge flaw, if it only hits ten rounds, it will be broken......"

"Then you don't specialize in making wearing parts, that shouldn't be a problem?"

"Huh...... Childe is clever! ”

The Force figured it out in an instant, "If you only add one more part to your craft, the difficulty will definitely be much lower...... No, it would be even easier to make than a more perfect crossbow machine, because the lifespan has dropped so much! ”

So, that's a matter of perception.

Do you want to make something as a family heirloom that can have a long lifespan, or do you want to make something that can be equipped quickly and in large quantities but has a short lifespan?

As long as it is a large-scale all-out war, it is clear that the latter has an advantage.

Cheap to make something with a short life can be increased, anyway, I don't expect this thing to fight for a lifetime, people will die, not to mention weapons, thank God that this army can survive half of it after a battle.

Replacing where it is broken is obviously the most efficient approach and does not require a long lifespan.

The so-called long life is the main point of the army's equipment in peacetime, or the situation of high training intensity.

"The villain understands, so let's build it in large quantities!"

"Well, the Force, you have to make a little change, the other craftsmen don't need to look at all the drawings, divide them into parts, specific to each person, they are only responsible for building one part."

Cao Ang began to instill the practice of standardizing the process, "But it must be fine, do you know the affairs of Daqin, each person is responsible for a part, but in the end, it is always installed, and there can be no problems." ”

"The villain understands, let's do it!"

If you think that a little standardization is difficult for the ancients, it is too much to underestimate them.

Since Qin Shi Huang, there has been standardized manufacturing, and the premise is that these craftsmen should be unified and manufactured according to the same model.

Of course, the smaller the error between parts, the easier it is to achieve, so it is necessary to unify weights and measures.

The Force went to start making, and Cao Ang tossed the crossbow aside.

"It's good that it's me, otherwise Zhuge Liang's hands and feet will stump people."

Cao Ang shook his head, not boasting, in ancient times, arrows were consumables, crossbows could not be old and bad, and they might give up if they were replaced by others.

But at a glance at the change of thought, in fact, there is not much difference, and even when manufacturing, you can cut corners, and you can use part of the crossbow as a consumable, isn't it over, and replace it regularly.

If it's a really elite unit, even an entire crossbow can be a consumables.

One-time use, such as ten arrows, can be thrown away after shooting.

It's a luxury for ordinary troops, but for some elite troops, it's a critical mission to perform, and it's best for them to use it.

Some wars are costless, as long as you win, take everything and get everything!

……

The next day, Cai Mao's people came to inform Cao Ang again that Jiang Gan was back!

After receiving this news, Cao Ang immediately rushed to Cao Cao's military tent, and whether he could save Cai Mao depends on this time.

When he came to the camp, sure enough, Cao Cao was furious, and no one dared to stop him.

He called Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and they all knelt in front of the tent, to be honest, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were quite stunned at this time.

Cao Cao got the letter of collaboration with the enemy stolen back by Jiang Gan, but others didn't know it, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun still shouted injustice.

"Drag it down, and the head of the army will be the heart of the army!"

At this time, Cao Cao would not suspect that Jiang Gan was tricked, he had a good idea of employing people, and Jiang Gan obtained direct information from Zhou Yu's side, or did he obtain it unintentionally, can this be fake?

Cai Mao Zhang Yun panicked and begged for mercy, because he didn't know what was going on and couldn't explain the idea.

And the generals of the Cao army next to them didn't have anyone to speak for them, because no one was waiting for them to surrender.

Cao Ang knew that it was time for him to go out.

"Father, no!"

For Cao Ang, who suddenly appeared, Cao Cao was in a worse mood: "Why, do you want to speak for them, there was a leak of military information before that led to the robbery of grain and grass, Zi Wu'er, you forgot?" ”

At this time, it is absolutely impossible to stand up to Cao Cao's anger and intercede for anyone.

Cao Ang can't do it either, if he pleads at this time, he will be naïve, and he simply doesn't take his IQ seriously.

"Father, the child also thinks this matter is strange, and some of them must be able to collaborate with the enemy!"

first affirmed Cao Cao's statement, and then changed his voice, "But father, a single tree can't make a forest, these two people are in the position of the governor of the navy, even if they collaborate with the enemy, they can't be the only ones!" ”

"Well, what is the son?"

"I implore my father to hand over Cai Mao to his son, and I will ask the accomplices in the army!"

Cao Cao woke up suddenly, if these two collaborated with the enemy, then there must be someone under his command who conspired, and this would definitely not be able to escape.

At the same time, after Cao Ang's interruption, Cao Cao also suddenly woke up, could this be Zhou Yu's plan......

Because, if you kill these two, the navy will basically have no one to command!

But it was impossible for Cao Cao to admit his mistake so quickly: "Zi Wu'er, why do you only want Cai Mao?" ”

"Father, Zhang Yun and his subordinates are no longer in our army, even if they are tortured, there is no basis."

"Well, that makes sense......"

Cao Cao said this, and Cao Zhi came out: "Father, hand over that Zhang Yun to the child for interrogation!" ”

Cao Cao, who stopped the above, was not so easy to deal with, and there were many more doubts in his heart, Cao Ang said that Zhang Yun and his subordinates were not under his account......

In that case, Cao Ang should also have some doubts, the grain and grass were robbed in the first place?

In this way, it seems that Zhang Yun is eccentric, and Cao Ang seems to be protecting people.

Cao Cao, who calmed down, was not so easy to deal with, and immediately figured out some joints.

"Zijian, you still take care of the grain and grass, interrogate Zhang Yun, and hand it over to Zhongkang for your father to ask."
