Chapter 23 The Law of Drawing Water
"I see." Li Si said, "Village chief, Lao Meng, this mobile base is equivalent to the tribe of the Xiongnu.
The tribes of the Xiongnu often changed places, and today they were here, and tomorrow they might go to other places.
If there is a difference, it is that this gentleman's mobile base can be controlled by the imperial court, but the tribal court of the Xiongnu cannot control it. ”
Meng Tian said: "Sir's idea is good, but the Huns are very cunning, what if they take a detour and directly raid the mobile base?" ”
Qin An said with a smile: "If Meng Tian doesn't know the movements of the Xiongnu army, then he is not worthy of the title of China's No. 1 warrior." ”
Ying Zheng said: "Lao Meng." Your ancestors should know the location of the Xiongnu. ”
"Back to the village chief, the ancestors knew, but unfortunately the speed of the Huns was too fast, plus through the desert, and when the army arrived, the Huns had already inquired and fled.
And our army can only retreat because of the problem of water sources, and the biggest enemy of the desert is water. Meng Tian said with great regret.
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "That's true, sir, I don't know if you have any solution to this water problem." ”
Qin An thought for a while and said, "I may not be able to find a water source, but there is still a way to solve the urgent need."
And the method is very simple, find a place where there are plants, and then hang a sword in the air, put a large bowl under the sword, and after one night, there will be water in the bowl. ”
"So amazing?" Ying Zheng said in surprise.
"Sir, you can't be witchcraft, are you?" Meng Tian said.
"Witchcraft or something." Qin An explained, "The temperature difference between morning and evening in the desert is too large, and the plants in the desert have the function of storing water, so at night, the air is full of water.
The sword is suspended because the moisture in the air collects on the sword and forms a bowl that slides to the ground.
After a whole night, you can almost fill a bowl of water. And this can only solve the urgent need, and it is not comparable to finding a river. ”
Meng Tian said excitedly: "Enough, this is completely enough, I can drink a bowl of water a day, which is enough in the desert." It's a luxury.
If we solve the problem of dry food and solve the problem of the Huns, it is not impossible at all. ”
"Dry food?" Qin An said with a smile, "It's a pity that the Qin Dynasty doesn't have any good dry food, and the time can't be stored for long."
Unlike now, if you don't have anything to eat, the time can be stored for a year and a half without spoiling.
Especially a kind of compressed biscuit, a small piece can top the stomach for a day, but the taste is not good. ”
Qin An had a finger and gestured at the size of the compressed biscuit.
"Sir, can you make these compressed biscuits?" Meng Tian asked.
He really wanted to compress dry food like biscuits, as long as he could eat enough, and taste was secondary.
Qin An shook his head and said: "Biscuits can be made, but this compressed biscuit will not, this is equivalent to compressing ten biscuits into one bite, and this technology will not be leaked by ordinary people."
Besides, who would want to learn the technique of compressing biscuits, and if they do, they won't make them.
With this time and this spirit, it is better to learn something useful. ”
It's a very useful technique for me, why don't you learn it? You should learn.
Meng Tian roared angrily in his heart, causing his face to twitch slightly.
"Lao Meng, you can remember all the three methods of sir, go back and study them yourself, and think about which one works." Ying Zheng said.
"No." Meng Tian replied respectfully.
"Research what research." Qin An opened his mouth and said, "It's been more than 2,000 years, the Xiongnu have long been wiped out, and they are constantly merging with people from other tribes, and with the addition of civil strife, the Xiongnu have long been gone."
Besides, the three methods I mentioned are all seen on the Internet, and they are all methods that I think of with the current vision.
Whether the situation of the Qin Dynasty at that time could use these three methods, no one can say, not even those experts, no matter how you say it, it has been two thousand years. ”
Meng Tian smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. is right, but the matter of the Xiongnu has always been the regret of my ancestors, and now that there is a way, at least I have to analyze it and tell the ancestors." ”
"Yes." Qin An nodded. "But now let's not talk about that, let's just eat. Then I'm going to build some furniture. ”
Ying Zheng said: "Yes, let's eat first, and then watch Mr. build new furniture." ”
"No."
Then the four of them began to solve the dishes on the table.
Although these dishes are ordinary home-cooked dishes, the three of Yingzheng, who have never eaten stir-fried vegetables, are full of praise one by one, which is simply a heavenly delicacy.
This made Qin An very useful, and even thought about whether to open a restaurant in the village, and finally dismissed this idea, because he was here to teach.
After dinner, Ying Zheng watched Qin An build a few new pieces of furniture and then returned to Xianyang City.
Meng Tian followed Ying Zheng to go together.
In Xianyang Palace, Meng Tian asked, "Your Majesty, is Mr. really from the future?" ”
"Nine times out of ten." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice, "He knows where my imperial tomb is, and he also knows that Xu Fu is a liar, and Jin Dan is poisonous."
Especially that phone, so magical, have you ever seen it? ”
"Wechen hasn't seen it." Meng Tian said.
"Not only have you not seen it, no one in Daqin has ever seen a mobile phone." Ying Zheng said, "All I believe that he is either a person of the future, or an immortal, an immortal who knows the next two thousand years.
Now, I have sent the Black Dragon Guard to protect the entire village.
Originally, I planned for you to lead an army of 300,000 to deal with the Xiongnu, but now that you have Sir's method, you don't have to go for the time being.
You discuss with the others about the master's countermeasures, and then give me a detailed plan, and you assign a general to go to the border. ”
"No."
After Meng Tian left, Zhang Han came.
"Wechen see Your Majesty." Zhang Han saluted.
"No need to be polite, how is Xu Fu?" Ying Zheng asked.
Zhang Han replied: "He doesn't admit that he lied to His Majesty, and swears by the life of his family." ”
"Hmph, I really underestimated him, and I dared to swear by the life of my family. I will fulfill him. Ying Zheng sneered, "How is the requisition of the sea vessels?" ”
"Three have already been signed." Zhang Han said.
"Three." Ying Zheng sneered: "Enough, three ships are enough, go with me to see Xu Fu for the last time." ”
"No."
……
Xu Fu was fidgeting in the palace at this time, he found himself under house arrest, and he knew that Ying Zheng was already suspicious of him.
Today Zhang Han looked for him and told him that he had proved that Jin Dan was poisonous, and His Majesty was very angry.
This was so frightened that he hurriedly swore an oath, made the most poisonous oath, and even cursed his entire family to make Zhang Han believe that he had not deceived Yingzheng.
However, he knew that these words only temporarily dispelled Zhang Han's suspicions, and did not dispel Ying Zheng's suspicions.
The top priority is to let Ying Zheng dispel his suspicions first.
