Chapter 502: Brother Rabbit is strong
After searching for a while, the arrow that His Majesty shot was found.
After looking around again, Lao Wang scratched his head and asked the little eunuch beside him, "Have you found the arrow shot by the county marquis?" ”
Several of the little eunuchs shook their heads.
Lao Wang searched again, and finally found the two arrows shot by the county marquis on the edge of the ridge farther away.
Looking up again at the place where the arrow had just been shot, nearly three hundred paces away.
Following His Majesty's side, Lao Wang is also familiar with the skills of riding and archery, and he also knows the archery skills of various generals.
His Majesty used a stone bow, which was fairly light to use.
It's good to shoot two hundred paces away, and it's three points and ten points to shoot into the wood.
Looking at the arrow in front of me is five inches into the ground, and the ridge is solid in the soil, it is difficult to dig into it and pull it out.
What kind of strange power is this?
The old king returned to His Majesty's dwelling with the arrows and told about it.
Li Shimin was a little surprised at first, "Three hundred steps away? ”
The prince bowed and said, "It's not bad." ”
Li Shimin drank the sobering tea, "I just have the strength to do it, this child was young and failed to discipline him well, he was a country boy at the beginning, and he didn't teach him well in riding and archery, looking at the bad things on his body, his clothes were not decent, he talked lightly, and he missed the best age to practice archery when he was over twenty." ”
The prince also sighed, how unbearable the county marquis is in His Majesty's mouth, but he treats people modestly, which is still very good.
His Majesty said bad things about the county marquis, and it was not easy for eunuchs to intervene, so they could only clean up quietly.
The children were taking a nap, and Li Yue was talking to Empress Eldest Sun.
"How can a husband have a queen mother say like this." She whispered: "If it weren't for her daughter's arguments, her husband would really have set up the latrine next to the bedroom." ”
Seeing the queen smiling, Li Yue was indignant in his heart, "I want to make a statue of the little bear and put it in Huaqing Pond, how can anyone use a bear as a statue and put it in their own yard." ”
Zhang Yang walked to the door of the house, saw his daughter-in-law and the queen talking in a low voice, and walked home by himself with a little bow.
Empress Eldest Sun whispered: "As long as he treats you well, the queen mother will rest assured, which man doesn't have some bad habits." ”
"A bad habit wouldn't put a latrine next to the bedroom."
Zhang Yang walked into the house, and a group of children fell asleep leaning on the bear's body, and it itself slept soundly.
Several palace maids themselves were sweating profusely, and they had to fan the princesses and princes.
The bear seems to have reached a condition of harmony with the children, and it is a beautiful thing to have someone fan the wind on this hot summer day, and it is enjoying it at the moment, regardless of the fact that the children sleep on its belly and back.
The little son even lay on the bear's head, holding the bear's nose with one hand and sleeping soundly.
Walking back to the bedroom, there were two tables in the bedroom, one was Li Yue's and the other was his own.
Smelling a hint of fruit, Zhang Yang walked to her table, and a bowl of cream was placed on the table, in which were all kinds of dried fruits, and there were many smoothies.
Although the daughter-in-law's cooking skills are not very good, there are a lot of whimsical ideas for making this kind of dim sum.
Zhang Yang picked up the small wooden spoon on the side, ate the bowl of smoothie in one go, returned to his table with satisfaction, and began to draw drawings.
After a while, the children also woke up.
Li Yue walked back to the bedroom, looked at the empty bowl on his desk and didn't speak for a long time.
Looking at her husband who was making a small model, she stepped forward with an empty bowl.
Noticing the resentful gaze, Zhang Yang raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Seeing her empty bowl again, he cleared his throat again and explained, "I tasted it, and it tasted very good." ”
Li Yue pursed her lips, "I originally wanted to keep it for drinking." ”
Zhang Yang said again: "It's okay to make one more bowl, what I have at home is dried fruit." ”
Because there are so many children in the family, dried meat and fruits, and some melons, there are a lot of food to prepare.
I wanted to finish talking to the queen mother, and then taste it slowly, so I left for a long time, but when I came back, I was drunk by my husband.
Zhang Yang said again: "Don't put so many raisins next time, it's too sweet." ”
Li Yue took a deep breath, "It's okay if your husband steals my things, why are you still picky?" ”
"Give you some pertinent suggestions for improvement."
Li Lizhi came quickly, "Sister Huang, you can go to class." ”
Calming down his emotions, Li Yue walked out of the room again in frustration.
Zhang Yang was trying his small model of the earthmine, pressing the trigger point above, and then releasing its machine to expand and sink, and the spring popped it open.
The model is not wrong, but whether it is so good in practice is a matter of two words.
Zhang Yang packed up the drawings and walked out of the house, the blacksmith workshop at this moment was preparing to relocate, and the work of these days had stopped.
Master Jiang smiled and said, "Xiao Zhang, where have you been these days?" ”
Zhang Yang cleared his throat and explained, "A few days ago, I was in Chang'an to help His Royal Highness King Wei with errands. ”
"But you have to do a good job for His Royal Highness King Wei, the old man's side is all dirty work, you have to join the office." Master Jiang advised, "Only when you enter the official career can you be regarded as truly getting ahead." ”
"In the past, the master asked me to follow me as a blacksmith."
"What can you do as a blacksmith?"
Zhang Yang walked into the blacksmith workshop, "How did the drawings that were handed over to the master before?" ”
Hearing this, Master Jiang opened a box, and there were several discs in it, all of which were parts for making earth mines.
At the moment when the casting process is not high, you can only do this kind of simple soil mine.
I've seen related technology in museums before, but some remote places haven't developed so fast, and there are still a lot of mines in the ground.
At that time, I carefully observed the structure of the mines.
I don't know if I'm right.
You have to try it carefully to find out.
Master Hejiang brought out this heavy box, and the crockpot-sized earth mine shell was polished into a thin piece of iron, and now it looked shiny.
Master Jiang sat on the side and watched the splicing process, "It turns out that they can be put together." ”
Zhang Yang assembled them in turn according to the drawings, "Huh? This edge is too big, and it seems that the size is wrong. ”
"Old man, I'll polish it."
Master Jiang worked diligently, took the outer edge of the disc and worked hard to polish it for a long time, carefully wiped it clean and handed it over.
Zhang Yang tried again, "Well, it's much better this time." ”
Master Jiang sat down cross-legged again, and he suddenly smiled.
Zhang Yang was surprised: "Master, what are you laughing at?" ”
Master Jiang said again: "When I first met you in Chang'an City, a clean young man wanted to come to work, and now I see that you are still so clean." ”
Zhang Yang looked at the master's hands covered with calluses, and there was a lot of dirt in the fingerprint ravine.
"After so many years, I haven't asked you, have you ever got married and started a family?"
Zhang Yang kept assembling his hands, "I got married, I have a daughter, who is seven months old." ”
The old master said again: "What about your father?" ”
Asked in a low voice, seeing that Zhang Yang was silent and did not answer, Master Jiang understood, "Back then, the war left too many orphans and widows, and you didn't have a good time when you were a child." ”
Zhang Yang smiled: "I was okay when I was a child, and I met a lot of good people. ”
"I used to look for places where the government made porridge everywhere to eat and drink, and I couldn't go hungry."
"After that, I followed a Taoist priest, and he was very good to me, and then he found a good friend, and he gave birth to a child, and he said that it was difficult to raise a child, so he kicked me out."
"Then I encountered a drought in Guanzhong, and I stayed alone on a mountain for half a year, eating and drinking."
“…… After that, a group of fallen grass for the gang came up in the mountains, those people are not smart, I followed them and ate and drank for nothing for half a year, if it were not for the government to chase and kill, I was sure to fool them, so that they were willing to worship me as the leader, and become the bandit leader of the mountain bandits. ”
"It's a pity that the world is not good, the government is counterinsurgency everywhere to the mountains, and the people's hearts are not ancient, that group of grass robbers left me and ran away, originally I was going to be punished to do hard labor, so I betrayed the escape place of this group of grass robbers to the government, and they exempted me from hard labor."
"After that, there was still a big drought in Guanzhong, and I followed a group of homeless people to Chang'an City under the escort of the government."
Listening to this kid's experience, Master Jiang gasped, "You just came over like this?" ”
Zhang Yang took out a packet of gunpowder and poured it into it, carefully loading the trigger primer, "You see, I have had a good time in the years of exile. ”
"And before?" Master Jiang said again.
"It's ...... before," Zhang Yang hesitated for a while and said, "That's it, it's the same as everyone else." ”
Master Jiang patted him on the shoulder, "It's easy to listen to you, but it's hard to get to Chang'an City alive." ”
"It's okay, our villagers in Guanzhong help each other a lot, and no one embarrasses me when I'm alone."
Master Jiang snorted and said, "A person like you can live well in the mountains, hahaha!" It's a hard one. ”
Zhang Yang carefully put on the buckle of the safety and tied a ring, and a mine was assembled.
"Next time, when my child is older, bring it to Master Jiang to meet."
"Okay, okay." He couldn't help nodding, "I don't know who you married, that girl must be very good." ”
"She's very nice, but she's a little picky about money."
As he spoke, Zhang Yang put the earth mine into a wooden box, "Master Jiang, I'll take it and try it first, and if you can, we can continue to cast it." ”
Master Jiang smiled and nodded, "You go, the things that His Royal Highness King Wei explained must be handled well." ”
"Don't worry."
Zhang Yang carried the earth mine into Lishan, here is a forest, usually no one sets foot, it is also the back of Lishan, the emperor's party is on the other side of Lishan.
After carefully checking the surroundings and making sure that there was no one, he dug a pit in the ground, carefully lowered the earthmines, and buried them again with earth.
I don't know how big the movement of this thing is, if it alarms someone, just find an excuse to fool around.
After planting, the safety ring was slowly withdrawn, and a soil mine was buried.
Step by step, away from the earth mines, Zhang Yang picked up stones along the way, and the stones went from large to small.
A meter away, Zhang Yang threw stones at the place where the earth mines were buried.
The first time it didn't explode, the second time it still didn't explode, and again I threw a fist-sized stone, and there was still no response.
Zhang Yang frowned, re-typed the drawings and looked carefully.
At this moment, a rabbit happened to pass by, and as he looked around, Zhang Yang threw a stone at it in annoyance, trying to drive it away.
When the rabbit saw this, he ran away, and by chance he stepped on a soil mine.
I saw that the rabbit stepped on the thunder and ran three or two steps away, and there was an explosion, and the clods of soil flew sideways, and the birds and beasts in the mountains scattered and fled.
The rabbit was lying not far away, unmoving.
Zhang Yang was satisfied with the drawings, "Brother Rabbit is strong!" Brother Rabbit has a good journey. ”
The scene was a mess, clods of earth were flying, and the earth mines had already been blown apart.
After looking at Brother Rabbit's situation again, half of his body was blurred and couldn't bear to look at it directly, Zhang Yang snorted and said: "In the future, my soil thunder will be called, rabbit thunder!" Brother Rabbit, just look at it, Lishan will have the confidence to protect itself because of your feat today. ”
"Datang is also strong because of your feats."
"The Central Plains will be because of your feat, and no foreign enemy will dare to offend from now on."
……
After thinking about it, Zhang Yang buried its corpse and was in a happy mood.
After cleaning up the scene, go home with the drawings.
I haven't considered a problem before, even if there is a triggered primer, the sensitivity of the primer is a big problem.
There was no reaction after being hit with a stone several times, and it is very likely that it hit the primer, but the primer did not burn up, so it did not detonate.
It was originally a bad trigger situation, and in this case, whether the earth mine exploded or not was completely related to luck.
It's like an old appliance where you flip the switch again and again, and you don't know which one turns it on.
That's what happened to Brother Rabbit, it's really lucky!
There are still many shortcomings, especially the composition of some primers to be improved.
Zhang Yang walked all the way, holding a pen and writing experimental records and experimental results on the drawings.
It's not very powerful, and the lethality is at most to kill a rabbit.
It is also enough to deal with war horses and pedestrians.
If you want to increase your lethality in the future, there are many ways to find it.
After recording this, I have walked to the doorstep.
The daughter-in-law was coaxing her crying daughter at home, and Zhang Yang saw two bowls of smoothies on the table, so he picked up one of them and ate it.
Xu Hui stood aside with a blank look.
Xiao Wu was also a little confused.
Zhang Yang was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”
Xu Hui pursed her lips and was silent, her eyes were full of grievances.
Xiao Wu said again: "I'll give half a bowl to Xiaohui, and we'll eat together." ”
It turned out that the bowl she ate was Xu Hui's, and the two little girls were about to eat it with wooden spoons in their hands.
Isn't there anyone in this house who prepares a bowl of smoothies for me, the male host?
Li Yue hugged the child and said suspiciously: "The husband has a heavy smell of gunsmoke. ”
Zhang Yang put down the drawings, "The experiment was successful." ”
First glanced at the two little girls in the yard, she whispered: "My husband went to do the experiment, but did anyone find out?" ”
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "It's where we set off fireworks, very few people go there, and your father's guards are all east of Lishan." ”
Li Yue was still a little apprehensive in his heart, "That thing will really blow people up?" ”
"It's not enough to kill people by blowing up, the power is not so great, people stepping on it will open their skin and flesh, and with the current medical conditions, if it is serious, the whole leg will be wasted."
Li Yue has played artillery battles, and he also knows the lethality of the explosion, "Husband, we only want to protect ourselves." ”
"I've already named this thing, it's called Rabbit Thunder."
"Rabbit Thunder?"
"This thing can be accomplished because of the feat of a rabbit, and I will always remember it in my heart, but rabbit meat still has to be eaten."
