Chapter 320 Celestial Artifact
Once upon a time, the Cai family was the first family in the Han world.
After Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Cai Yong was questioned, and his family was in the middle of the road.
After that, the ten parts of Guanzhong rebelled, and the former Gyeonggi Heavy Land became the most chaotic place in the world, and even the Xiongnu went south to get a piece of the pie, and countless precious classics were also burned.
However, now the largest book collection in Dahan has a new name, Ziyang Academy.
In the early days of recovering the six counties of Xuzhou and the three counties of Huainan, although fresh blood was constantly injected here, it was far from being called a book collector.
Even if Cai Yan came later, with his amazing memory, he added more than 400 new books, after all, he was just a wrestler with the heritage of some great Confucian families.
What really made a qualitative change here was to take the northern country and move more than 5,000 books from the Yuan family in Yecheng, the capital of Jizhou, so far, Ziyang Academy has become the world's largest book collection in the world.
Originally, the attraction of books to scholars from poor families was strong enough, and with the expansion of the territory and the growth of strength, there have been more and more people in Ziyang Academy in the past two years.
It's a pity, because Lin Mo has never been able to put down the war at hand to govern internal affairs, most of the talents who go out here can only do some pen work, clerical work and the like, and those with a little foundation may be able to mix with the county, but this is already the top of the sky.
The positions above are occupied by people from major families.
However, this matter should not be dealt with at this stage, in the final analysis, whether it is Ziyang Academy or the Zhen family, they are all used to deal with the hole cards of the world's families in the end.
Now, Lin Mo just came over to inspect it, and it can be regarded as understanding the situation of the academy.
When he was bored, he would pull out the white rainbow and dance a few laps with Zhao Yun.
"If you are really interested, Gai Ming'er Meng Qi is back, let him teach you, his methods are very powerful."
"Is it better than you?" Lin Mo said with a smile.
"In terms of pure swordsmanship, I can't fight him." Zhao Yun admitted very freely.
Lin Mo just pursed his lips and passed the time, he had long known that a physique like himself, because the upper limit of his strength was too low, he really met a master who cultivated both inside and outside, and no matter how clever his swordsmanship was, it was just a showmanship, and he was knocked down in one fell swoop.
Even the soldiers can beat him down.
"Master Hou, Mrs. Liu has arrived, waiting in the council hall." While chatting, a sergeant came running to give an announcement.
Lin Mo nodded and looked at Zhao Yun, "I'll set off in a few days, ready to prepare." ”
"Understood."
Prepare, that is, prepare to say goodbye to Cai Yan.
When he returned to the council hall, Liu Ye hurriedly took a few old masters from Huainan to make a move, "I've seen Master Hou." ”
These people have a little impression, it seems to be the county order of Jiujiang.
"I heard that you didn't even enter Changfeng after breaking through from Shouchun, and galloped all the way to Pengcheng to rest, are you in such a hurry?" After sitting down, Lin Mo took a deep breath and was ready to spend time with them.
Similar to the conjecture, the four county commanders began to reprimand Lu Zijing for being inappropriate, first of all, they sat idly by and ignored the fallen Lujiang, and they had to fight Guan Yu.
Fight it, but also lose the fight, the last 100,000 rushed to the rescue, all the way by the Jiangdong tired army strategy in the palm of the hand, the local defense war was actually pressed to the ground by Jiangdong, which is not superior in strength, causing Lujiang and Jiujiang to fall one after another, and Anfeng will soon change hands, this sin can not be erased.
When the four of them said that their love was thick, they spitted and flew everywhere, and they almost didn't say, 'Please cut off this fang's head'.
In the end, Liu Ye came to a summary, "Lu Zijing was ordered to serve as the supervisor of Anfeng and defend the defense of the three counties, but he can take a wrong step and make a wrong step, and the crime of defeating the army and the responsibility of losing the land should be punished heavily!" ”
"Lu Su is really not like words, when I arrive in Changfeng, I will definitely punish him heavily, if I keep this position too much, he will definitely not have a chance to do it again." Lin Mo hated that iron could not become steel and scolded.
After hearing this, the four county commanders nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, you have worked hard all the way from afar, go and rest first, and return to Jiujiang with the army in a few days, and I will take back the lost land."
"Whoa."
The four of them turned around and left together, glanced at Liu Ye who was in place, and thought that they would retreat willingly if they still had something to say.
When there were only two people left in the council hall, they all smiled.
Liu Ye spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Forgive me, Master Hou, you also know that the grievances between the Huainan scholar and the Xuzhou scholar have been around for a long time.
When Chen Yuanlong was abandoned, how many people clapped their hands and applauded, thinking that they had finally driven this outsider away, who would have thought that there would be another Lu Zijing.
But then again, the defeat of Zijing's army is a fact, and the extremely inappropriate disposal this time really can't stay in the three counties of Huainan. ”
Of course, Liu Ye has some city governments, but he is still an honest man in the background.
After all, the identity of the royal descendants is real, and the gold content is much higher than Liu Bei, so people have never thought of using this golden signboard for personal gain.
When he came this time, he was probably worried that when he went to Changfeng, he would open up to Lu Su and cause indignation among the Huainan Gang, which was kind.
"You and I haven't seen each other for a few years, and it's a bad thing when we meet, but there's no need to be so reserved, just sit down and talk."
Lin Mo smiled, and then said frankly, "Actually, you know, if Lu Zijing is gone, someone else will take over, and letting you stay in Huainan at the beginning does have the meaning of appeasing people's hearts."
But now, you can't get used to them like before, they've been obedient all these years, don't force me to clean them up like the rotten people in the north, you will have more headaches. ”
Liu Ziyang, who is not a starting team, can be called a veteran in the end, how could he not understand the means of the Marquis of Lanling, he was helpless to come here, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he showed his sincerity and position to tell the truth.
I can't take care of the elegance that I have cultivated over the years, and said with a wry smile: "Otherwise, let Mr. Gongtai pass?" ”
Seeing that Lin Mo didn't think so, he added, "You can learn Yuan Shu and fake the history of Yangzhou assassination." ”
"You've already figured it out." When it comes to this balancing technique, I always feel that Liu Ye is better than himself.
Let Chen Gong govern the three counties with the official position of Yangzhou Assassin in the past, and at the same time, the original Taishou authority had to be handed over to them.
Although there are three mutual legal balances, in the end, the Huainan Gang is enough to hold together without saying that they are in causion, and several counties can take turns to exploit the loopholes in the laws of the imperial court.
"Where does Master Hou say, Mr. Gongtai has followed Wen Hou for many years, and he has worked hard, and even Zhenrong can jump on the steps of the assassin history, and Mr. Gongtai should take the lead." Liu Ye explained stupidly.
"Actually, that's what I mean." The Huainan Gang is xenophobic in one aspect, and it is also a practical situation not to deal with Xuzhou scholars.
Chen Gong is not from Xuzhou, and with his identity as the starting team, how can ordinary people dare to brush the tiger's whiskers in front of him.
"Hou Ye Mingjian." Liu Ye quietly slapped the boulder in his heart.
"I'll show you something good."
In Lin Mo's opinion, the balanced family seemed to be worse than fighting and fighting wits, and he didn't want to say more, so he took Liu Ye out.
Along the way, the two were side by side but slightly silent.
It seems that the relationship that is not familiar after not seeing each other for a few years is even more secluded, and Liu Ye doesn't care about what to see, thinking that it is better to take this rare opportunity to be alone to explain some things.
"Anfeng has become a lonely city, Hao Zhao alone leads 5,000 soldiers, there will be no crisis for a while and a half, Hou Ye should take advantage of Sun Ce's failure to send troops as soon as possible, so as to appease the hearts of the army and the people.
Sun Ce, who had broken a lot of people in Guangling, dared to attack brazenly, and guessed that he wanted to pull Hou Ye into the quagmire, and Wen Hou was in the west, and Cao Cao took advantage of the emptiness of the Central Plains to attack on a large scale, forming a two-front attack.
It is estimated that it will take three months for Cao's army to set off a war in the Central Plains at the earliest, so the key to this return attack is not to attack one city and one wall, but to lure out Jiangdong soldiers and horses.
It is best to attack the Lujiang River directly from Changfeng, the Wankou ferry is their only way to retreat, and Sun Ce does not dare not save it. ”
"Very good, very good." Lin Mo kept walking, as if he was talking about something trivial or even irrelevant to him.
"Oh yes, after Sun Ce took Lujiang, he went to Qiao's house once to ask Qiao Gong to marry Er Qiao, but Qiao Gong didn't agree."
Lin Mo was laughing, but Liu Ye didn't dare to laugh, this matter was really the top priority in Huainan, and explained: "When Hou Ye was in the northern country, Qiao Gong thought about letting Er Qiao marry Hou Ye, but there were frequent wars and they couldn't see each other, so they repeatedly delayed.
Seeing Master Hou this time, there should be an explanation for this matter. ”
"There is also a good thing of buying one get one free in this stall, if you don't talk about kissing Ziyang, you must have made a contribution to this matter, and you can't make up for the thank you wine when you turn around."
"Master Hou, I'm serious."
"Me too."
Of course, Liu Ye didn't understand what Lin Mo was thinking, but felt that he was becoming more and more confusing.
The Qiao family, whose heart is higher than the sky, took the initiative to marry, and they knew with their toes that it was for the benefit of the Huainan Gang.
It's a good good thing, but it doesn't make your group of people get contaminated with impure relationships, and Lin Mo feels unhappy when he thinks about it.
If you want to say that it is good, it has to be better for Ling'er and the black queen, and the person is pure emotion, without any impurities.
People are like this, for impure things, they always feel that the beauty in their hearts has been smeared by someone who is not deep or shallow, and they hate it tightly.
That is, Liu Ye's house, if he changes someone, Lin Mo can reward him with a big thigh.
"What is this?"
"It's amazing!"
"These miles away are as close as they are in front of you, and there is such a divine thing under the sky, so good."
"With this artifact, the reconnaissance of the scouts on the battlefield in the future and the observation of the battlefield by the main general will be twice the result with half the effort."
After seeing the telescope, Liu Ye was so addicted that he couldn't put it down and looked around, and the words of praise in his mouth couldn't stop.
"In the early years, Hou Ye's Quyuan plow, keel waterwheel, glass bowl and fertilizer have all opened my eyes, and today I will see Hou Ye's wrist, and my mood will be stirring."
Like a little kid. Lin Mo felt a little funny.
The telescope was not very difficult to manufacture, and it was polished in just a few days.
But more than a month has passed, and there really hasn't been much progress in the scope.
It's too difficult, it needs reflection imaging, and it also needs to cooperate with the upper cross aiming, and the difficulty is increased by a hundred times.
Now, Lin Mo is lying down a little, and he found a few of the best craftsmen in the barracks, and after telling them the general principle, he left it alone, whether it can be done or not depends on the will of God.
You can write a letter to your father-in-law when you go back, the most famous craftsman in this era is Ma Jun, who is still an inventor and a person who helps the wind, but now it is unknown whether he is in the wind or not.
The old father-in-law on the left and right is also in that area, looking for it, how much can be found to help some people.
"This thing is good, but once it is lost, the enemy can pick it up and use it immediately, which is also a disadvantage." Lin Mo clasped his hands to his chest and said helplessly.
"Master Hou, rest assured, the chances of scouts being alone are still relatively small." In fact, Liu Ye agrees in his heart, but the level of speaking art is quite high.
Seeing that Liu Ye seemed to have opened the door to a new world, and he didn't look at himself when he spoke, Lin Mo had no choice but to retreat to the chair in the military examination office, and his mind began to diverge.
The technology tree is a thing, either you don't climb it, and you can't climb it with thunder and rain.
I think that at the beginning, whether it was a curved plow, a keel waterwheel or a fertilizer, when these things came out, it was not too much to say that they were shocking.
This telescope can also help a little, but it seems a little chicken.
The problem of gunpowder Lin Mo is already being made, and the proportions are approaching perfection.
But it's still an old problem, I haven't found a substitute lead, and now I want to use it, the biggest difference with the oil jar is that his explosive power will be greater, but if there is no lead, it can't be coercive in all directions, after all, there is less flexibility.
The lead problem cannot be replaced by others, so Lin Mo can only think about it seriously by himself.
However, after calming down during this time, I still thought of a few inventions that could affect the situation of the battle, and at the same time had a high feasibility.
One is a parachute with a very high risk factor.
The material requirements of the parachutes of later generations are extremely high, not only resistant to pulling, but also fire-resistant, which is simply not possible with ordinary fabrics.
The way Lin Mo can think of is to increase the thickness of the cloth woven with silk, but of course the high temperature does not exist, but in terms of strength, silk can be satisfied.
The military parachute rope used to use silk, and now it is replaced with an umbrella material, you can try it first, after all, silk is relatively close to the requirements of the parachute in terms of strength and quality.
The prototype has been drawn and sent to Xiao Guan.
Xiao Guan also has his own military examination department that can be manufactured, and Lin Mo is also equipped with craftsmen for them.
The biggest consideration for sending to Xiaoguan is Gao Shun's trapping camp, if the Central Plains and Cao Cao are defeated, there should be more in the future, and there should be more mountainous places such as Sichuan and Jingzhou.
At that time, parachutes will come in handy, and at the same time, they must be infantry skilled in mountain warfare, which no other army can compare with the trapped camp.
Of course, Lin Mo also made it clear in the letter that he would first try it with a death row prisoner or a sergeant who had committed a capital crime in military law, until the finished product that could really carry the human body to land came out, and then slowly become proficient from the trapping camp.
The process will be relatively long, so there is still more time and time.
As for the second piece, it's a hot air balloon.
The idea of the hot air balloon came from the fact that the gunpowder was made without a lead, and they didn't know how to use it, and if they could fly to a certain height, they could be thrown again.
Well, the effect will be very rebellious.
At the same time, some cliffs can also be overcome with hot air balloons.
The principle of hot air balloon is the same as that of Kong Ming lantern, or Yunwen lantern, which is through thermal expansion and cold contraction.
Unlike parachutes, the material of hot air balloons has rigid requirements for heat resistance, and it is for this reason that this project is still in the development stage.
However, unlike parachutes, which require high strength and light weight, it should be easier to find a replacement for heat resistance alone.
The most troublesome point is not the material of the umbrella, nor the fuel, nor the bamboo basket, but the fuel.
The burning material used in later hot air balloons is fire cloth, a kind of cloth that can resist combustion, and can continue to burn after being contaminated with gasoline.
Is there any such thing in this era?
Some.
The earliest record of the fire Huan cloth was in the era of King Mu of Zhou, when he personally ruled Xirong and returned with a great victory, the king of Xirong personally handed over two treasures of the town, one is the Kunwu sword, and the other is the fire Huanbu.
It is recorded in "Liezi Tangwen": If the fire cloth is dirty, it is not washed with water but washed with fire, as long as it is thrown into the fire, the cloth will burn red, and the dirt will fall, and the color of the cloth will be as clean as new, as white as snow.
Xijon at that time was the so-called Western Regions during this period.
There should be nothing wrong with this direction, because in later records, Cao Pi once sneered at Huohuanbu after he ascended the throne, thinking that it was something that did not exist at all.
It wasn't until later that there was really such a piece of cloth in the tribute paid by a certain country in the Western Regions, and the fire could not be exhausted, and it was as good as ever.
At the same time, the fire cloth of later generations was indeed refined from the asbestos mine in Xinjiang.
All these clues point to prove that the materials that Lin Mo needs can be found in the countries of the Western Regions.
After the old father-in-law gets Sizhou, he will have to solve Liangzhou, and when the time comes, according to the map, there is a good chance that he can find this kind of fabric.
As long as this thing can be brought back, the development of hot air balloons can be smoothly put on the agenda.
And once these two artifacts come out, it is a bit exaggerated to say that they completely subvert the battlefield, but they can definitely make Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Ce have a new understanding of the concept of strange soldiers.
Thinking about Zhuge Liang when they saw it, Lin Mo felt very enjoyable.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
The army began to march.
There are not too many soldiers and horses, 18,000, but the generals are absolutely blind, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Yu Ban, Xu Sheng, plus Yan Liangwen Chou in Changfeng City and the 18,000 troops under their command, whether it is the number of soldiers and horses, or the quality, they can crush Jiangdong.
There are 36,000 people, and the Jiangdong in front of him is 20,000, plus there is no cavalry, Lin Mo is not a proud person, but he doesn't know how he lost.
If there is any other idea, it is that I hope to leave Sun Ce behind.
Sun Quan is dead, and there is only one Sun Yi left in the Sun family to take over.
But his prestige is far inferior to Sun Ce, and his heart is not as good as Sun Quan, if he takes over the great cause of Jiangdong, Wu of Wei Shu and Wu can basically be abolished.
