Chang'an after the snow is covered in silver.

In the secret realm of the military mansion, Ji Qiu took out two things, concentric lotus leaves and a bronze knife coin.

When he feeds the qi into the concentric lotus leaves and writes on the lotus leaves, the content is transmitted to the other side.

This is the same as before, except that a new incantation is engraved on the lotus leaves.

Ji Qiu urged for the second time, and the incantation engraved on the lotus leaf emitted a faint light, and a voice came out through the lotus leaf:

"That jade knife that is close to the immortal weapon, the core array has been partially cracked by us, and this sound is the effect of the array sacrifice engraved on the lotus leaf."

From the era of SMS to WeChat?

"However, at present, this jade knife array has only been partially studied, and it still needs to match the original texture of the lotus leaf before it can be transmitted."

Ji Qiu said: "The reproduction of the array on the copper coin is still in the stage of text communication. ”

In other words, the number of lotus leaves is limited, but the transmission method formed by the sacrifice engraved on the copper coin can begin to be used in large quantities.

"Is there any progress on other ordnance?"

"Yes, Han knives, horsesshoes, we all relied on the secret pattern that Hou Ye brought last time, and forged the finished product, and the effect was ...... Against all odds. Ji Qiu looked a little surprised.

Before Huo Quai's expedition, relying on the secret patterns obtained from the first emperor's handwriting, he asked Ji Qiu and other ink writers to try.

The way of carving the secret pattern, the pattern is ready-made, and the progress of the ink craftsman trying to carve is very fast.

Ji Qiu took out two horseshoes, one was engraved with a secret pattern, and the other was not engraved with a secret pattern, and compared and introduced:

"If the horse's four hooves are used in this kind of horse's paw with a secret pattern, the four hooves are connected, like a kind of array, which is triggered when running, which can assist the marching strategy and make the horse run faster.

The weight of the war horse itself is supported, and it is lighter, and the consumption is smaller.

We have tried it briefly, using this secret pattern horseshoe, you can increase the distance and speed of horses running long distances, at least one to two percent. ”

One to two percent is an increase of 10 to 20 percent on the original basis, a significant increase.

"The current increase ratio is still our preliminary research on the effect of the secret pattern, and what is made is only the initial horseshoes.

More complex secret pattern full horseshoe, we can't do it yet. It takes time, and if it can be prepared successfully, the effect will be better than at this stage. ”

Ji Qiu's eyes lit up:

"These secret patterns provided by Hou Ye have amazing results.

We all think that the legendary immortal weapon may contain a blessing similar to the secret pattern, so it can far exceed the power of ordinary magic weapons. ”

"The best effect of this horseshoe is not the growth rate, but the protection of the horse.

The texture of the four horseshoes is diffused and intertwined, and when the horse runs and encounters these traps, it will form a plane to bear the weight, so as to ensure that the horse will not be trapped in the pit and break the horse's legs. ”

"The toughness and sharpness of the Han knife, after the sacrifice of the secret pattern, the same proportion of improvement, is also comparable to the horseshoe."

Huo Quzhi was also quite moved, where did the First Emperor get these secret patterns?

"During this time, how many ink masters were gathered from all over the world?"

"At first, there were less than 100 ink people who came with me, and now there are more than 360 people, all of whom I deceived with the Mo family's Juzi order."

Ji Qiu's somewhat chubby face showed a complacent look:

"Although people are deceitful, most of them don't want to leave when they come."

"Especially when Master Hou brought us something like the secret pattern to study, he didn't drive them away."

For ink practitioners, the secret pattern is equivalent to other cultivators seeing a treasure book that can pass through immortals, and it has the fatal attraction of dying when they hear about it.

Some ink artists were reluctant to serve the Han Dynasty before, but after they came, they felt really fragrant.

The heritage of a country is far from being comparable to that of a family and a faction.

This is the same as the process of cultivation, the scattered cultivation alone, the materials for refining weapons, and the heavenly and earthly treasures for refining medicines, all have to be found by yourself.

The days are tight.

And backed by the Han Dynasty, the resources of a country's strength, all the materials are available, and they are taken and demanded.

Things that used to be difficult to see at a glance are now constantly being pulled in to the military mansion.

As soon as the days of corruption and copper smell passed, it was easy to move from thrift to luxury.

In particular, the Mohists practice, want to improve, and rely on materials and other materials very seriously. The prepared things can strengthen the army and build the country, a virtuous circle.

The inkers who came over naturally gathered more and more.

Regarding the secret pattern, it is necessary to further strengthen supervision and prevent its leakage...... Huo Qu thought about it.

At this time, Ji Qiu found more than ten people, all of whom were ink masters of the Mo family and above grades.

"Who among you can make an artifact with an exploding effect?" Huo Quzhi asked.

Several inkmen looked at each other.

A tall and thin old man said: "We can compress the power of heaven and earth through the sacrificial carving array to induce the effect of exploding, I don't know if the Fu meets the requirements of the Hou Ye?" ”

Huo Quzhi noticed that the old man was a six-fingered man, and his fingers were very long, giving people an extremely flexible appearance.

His complexion is as dark as that of an old farmer, and his face has many wrinkles, but his fingers are smooth and delicate like a woman.

Huo Quzhi remembered Ji Qiu's hand, and the little finger was also one section longer than ordinary people, almost the same length as the other three fingers.

Mo family cultivators, fingers are different from ordinary people is a talent bonus?

"How powerful are you talking about compressing the power of heaven and earth with an array?"

"It's roughly equivalent to the two realms of heaven and man, an offensive that broke out with all its might."

"We have made thunderstorm arrows, that is, in a bronze barrel with a thick arm, hundreds of small bronze arrows are buried, the formation pattern is carved, and the small arrows are shot out by urging them, and they will be covered within ten zhang."

The six-fingered old man said: "However, the production process is complicated, and it is difficult to mass produce. ”

The power should be sufficient...... Huo Quzhi thought to himself.

The original intention of his inquiry was to think of an artifact and see if it could be made.

In the era of this world, Huo Qubing would not study firearms.

But after looking at bed crossbows, trebuchets and other siege equipment, he planned to try to make a relatively simple and portable bomb throwing device in later generations.

It can also be understood as a 'mortar', similar to a trebuchet or bed crossbow, but more powerful.

If you can eject the 'bomb' made by the Mo family, even if you don't have the right head, you can project it into a crowd or cavalry array at a long distance, and the power will be very considerable.

If this kind of 'mortar' can be built, it can avoid the shortcomings of the bed crossbow that is difficult to carry and is too large.

Whether it is Zhao Anji's team carrying with him, fighting behind enemy lines, or fighting in front of the battle, the improvement of combat effectiveness is not a star.

Even if it is a solid iron ball, under the force of long-distance projectile, it can break the opponent's tendons and bones.

Huo Quzhi said the general idea, but the inkman did not give an answer immediately, only said that he should consider it.

You must know that when Mozi invented the bed crossbow, it could not reduce the volume, it was huge and heavy, and it was difficult to transport......

Take your time.

In the afternoon, Huo Qu left the military mansion and came to the embroidered clothes hall.

Ru Bohu sits by the window, and the buildings outside, the grass and trees are covered with snow, and the scenery is excellent.

He was reading a book on the top floor of the main hall, and when he saw Huo Quai, he happily joked: "Huo Hou annihilated tens of thousands of elites of the Dayue clan in three days, and when the news came back, His Majesty repeatedly mentioned it four times at the court meeting, praising Huo Hou for being an unborn general."

I heard that His Majesty also personally gave Huo Hou to enter the court? ”

Ru Bohu's long face had a hint of a smile.

His Majesty has given him the privilege of entering the court, but if he really sees the emperor and does not bow down, it is a lack of heart...... After Huo Quzhi sat down, he asked, "Is there any news about the unfallen ship left on the sea in the Qin period?" ”

"I have passed down the order to the attention of the ministries, but I have not yet reaped the results."

Ru Bohu took out a leather roll:

"This is the topographic map you summoned back, and I asked Cao Wei to take people to southern Xinjiang to draw a topographical map. The roads on the southern border of Xinjiang are dangerous, the rivers are staggered, and the miasma is pressing.

What do you want to do when you ask for such a map? ”

Huo Quzhi said: "It's a good thing to be difficult to walk, and what you can do is a miracle." ”

"Odd soldiers?"

Ru Bohu thought for a while: "You took a break from the battlefield and returned to Chang'an, obviously there is something you have to do, if you go out in the near future, remember to bring Song Ran with you." ”

Huo Quzhi was surprised and said: "These few times I went out, why did you always tell you to take Song Ran with you?" ”

Ru Bohu didn't answer and asked: "There is something special about my apprentice, have you ever noticed it?" ”

“？”

"I once gave an assessment to someone I knew, and she has a high grade A, which is her personal fortune."

Fortune is the most important component of a person's luck, which can also be understood as luck.

Huo Quzhi recalled it, but he didn't find anything special about Song Ran's fortune.

"I sealed it up, I'm afraid others will see it."

Ru Bo Tiger God said mysteriously: "With Song Ran, you can increase your luck." Sometimes I can't figure out some things, and I can't find clues hidden behind the scenes, for example, there are people hiding in Chang'an in Zonghengdao, and they are very hidden, so I let Song Ran wander around the street.

The place and location she subconsciously chose probably harbored clues about the relationship between the target person. ”

So powerful, natural lucky physique plus nine?

Huo Quzhi was shocked.

"With her, you can avoid many invisible dangers, don't you notice?"

I have a spirit yarrow talisman, some things will come down to the guidance of the talisman, is it still related to Song Ran?

Huo Quzhi pondered for a while: For example, this expedition, intercepting the Xiongnu team, although I judged its marching route, but the wasteland north of the Western Xiongnu is vast, and we can directly meet the other party......

Could it be Song Ran, with her, the opponent will be extremely unlucky?

Ru Bohu said: "We know this secret now, do you keep it secret?" ”

Huo Quzhi was suddenly a little alert, Ru Bohu had more than 800 hearts, why did he tell the news to himself: "Song Ran has this physique, you let her follow me, and tell the secret and discernment, what do you want to do?" ”

Ru Bohu denied: "Huo Hou thinks too much, and he has no other meaning. You take her and let her exercise, hello, she's good, I'm good. ”

After the words fell, he handed Huo Quzhi a quick note.

"This is some news that the person you asked me to embroider clothes to enter the body poison, the more western regions of the Western Regions, and probe some news."

Huo Quzhi took it in his hand and looked at it.

It deals with the religion of the body, the social structure, the approximate number of military distributions, and so on.

The original historical line, compared with the poisonous countries of this world, is obviously offset.

In established history, Buddhism was assimilated and absorbed by the Indian religion and became a part of it.

But in this world, because of the sage Siddhartha, there has been a great change.

Buddhism is almost the dominant family in the body poison, and in turn incorporates Indian religion into its system.

Before Huo Qu's illness killed the empty samadhi, he showed the body of the Buddha mother with eighteen arms, which was actually the demon subduing deity of the Indian religion.

However, in the body poison, the Hindu religion still has residual power...... There is a fundamental contradiction between the two denominations that can be exploited.

Huo Qu was sick and thought about it while reading the contents of the brief.

He left the embroidered clothes hall and returned to the house, it was already evening, and he caught up with Gongsun Hong and Dong Zhongshu to visit.

"On the way back, Huo Hou said that he was going to the coastal border to have a look, when did he leave?

We also plan to see the preliminary preparations for the construction of sea vessels. Dong Zhongshu proposed.

Huo Qubing came back this time, and he only planned to stay in Chang'an for a few days, and he wanted to go south, in order to use poison on his body.

Many of the previous preparations were also made for the same goal.

"I'll leave in about three or four days and go to the coastal area."

Dong Zhongshu stayed with Gongsun Hong for a while, and then left the Hou Mansion.

Huo Qu returned to the inner house, and when he passed by the pavilion of the viewing lake, he met Bai Nanyu and Zhuo Qingke's aunt and sister-in-law.

When Zhuo Qingke saw Huo Quai, his head drooped slightly, and he already knew that Huo Qubing wanted to accept her as a concubine, and said with shame and joy: "Master Hou." ”
