Chapter 50: Matthew
The people were stunned, and the tall and thin people said, "Have you seen it?"
Li Bochen smiled coldly: "I once went to Beiyuan with someone to do business, and the demon beast naturally saw it." You say that the officers and soldiers of the Northern Plains are cowardly and misleading the country, and they feel that they can turn the tide, but I am curious, some people don't even dare to kill a chicken, how can they think that they can kill monsters?"
When he said these words, he was stunned first. He does more than he talks in the city of Immeasurables, and he doesn't like to quarrel with people. But when these few words came out, something that had been accumulated in my chest suddenly became clear, and I felt happy.
Now that you have said something that offends people, you are not afraid to say more.
Then he said: "Since you have never been on the battlefield and have never seen demon beasts, how do you know that the armored carts discarded on the northern plains are due to the timidity of the officers and soldiers? I heard that when Shuxue was building the armored car, he deliberately added a lot of iron to the chassis, so that after the demon beasts rushed closer, they could abandon the car and stop the enemy.
The men didn't seem to expect him to either not speak, or to speak sharply. After hearing him say this, the tall and thin man grabbed one place and said busily: "You also know the armor car? Brother Sui said before that when building an armored car, in addition to being used to block the enemy and protect it, it can also be used as a small fortress. β
"The monster is approaching, and the officers and soldiers can hide in the car and stab outward. If you are trapped in a fight to the death, you can hold on to the car for dozens of days waiting for reinforcements. My uncle was the head of the workshop, and he said that when he built the car, he also reserved a place in the car where he could store water. It is said that there are almost no corpses in the ironclad carts abandoned on the battlefield in the vicinity of Wuliang and Wanyou City, which shows that the officers and men have no fighting spirit and no one fights to the death!"
Li Bochen couldn't help but laugh. Most of his laughter was angry.
The tall and thin man was stunned: "What are you laughing at?"
"Laugh, I've really seen what I'm talking about. Li Bochen stood up straight and said in a deep voice, "Let me ask you, do you know how cold it is in the Northern Plains? The water and fire meter created according to the art has twenty or thirty degrees below freezing. It's cold in Zhangcheng today, but it's only three or four degrees below freezing. β
Once trapped in the car, they will be surrounded for two or three days for the shortest, and six or seven days for the longest. There is not much space in the car, can you make a fire to keep warm? I am afraid that I will be smoked to death. Do you dare to open the window? Do you know that there is a demon beast that is extremely small, only the size of a palm, and can spit acid in its mouth. If you really want to open the window, they immediately rush in. If you don't open the window, in addition to being smoked to death, the iron armor of the armor car can be melted through by them, and you will die. β
"When a person is trapped in a car, it is no different from taking death. This is something that even those who make armored cars can't think of. What's more, there may be a zombie puppet more than ten zhang high among the demon beasts, that thing is infinitely powerful, it is not difficult to overturn the armor car, how to do a fortress?"
Several young people were stunned. The tall and thin man blinked: "Zombie puppet......? Twenty or thirty meters high? What is that? Your Excellency, don't talk about it. β
Having said that, hearing that Li Bochen does seem to know a lot about the battle in the Northern Plains, this question seems to be lacking in confidence.
Li Bochen said a lot, and his heart calmed down slightly. He knew that he would be able to debate with these people who only knew how to talk endlessly, so he bowed his hand: "You will know in the future." Leave. β
Sui Ziang hadn't spoken before, and when the tall and thin saw that Li Bochen was leaving, he seemed to be very unconvinced, so he said, "Brother Sui, you can also say something." β
Sui Ziang smiled: "This brother said that he was in business, but he seems to know a lot about armored cars, is he a deserter?"
Li Bochen originally thought that these people were just bookish, but their hearts were not bad. But after listening to Sui Ziang's calm tone, he realized that this person looked elegant and noble, but his mind was really a little vicious.
But he's half right. Li Bochen's heart jumped slightly, thinking that he had lost his words. However, thinking of those soldiers who died in the snowfield, I felt that those words were indeed what I should say. People have fought to the death and fought to the fullest, so why should they be slandered?
At this point, he thought there was probably only one way to explain it. Then he said: "I'm just interested in the art of the magic machine, and I know a little more." If you really want to serve the country, you can also ask the old army more, so that it will not be just a matter of paper. β
Sui Ziang smiled: "Really, then I will take the teaching test and the godbrother platform, so I can see if I am a deserter or not." β
Li Bochen looked left and right, and found that some people had gathered at some point and surrounded them. Now the people who studied art have finished their morning classes, and most of them are young people, and it is best to be lively, so they can't stand still. When there were many people, others saw that there were many people, so they also gathered around, and there were twenty or thirty for a while.
Listening to what Sui Ziang said, it seemed that he would not end the matter without telling himself to be soft. There are many onlookers, and most of them are the same age, so it is really impossible for him to apologize and get out at this time. Li Bochen was angry in his heart, and he also smiled: "Okay." Please speak. β
The people around him exclaimed in a low voice, and they didn't know what the identity of this Sui Ziang was, and it seemed that it was a great thing to ask him to teach himself.
Sui Ziang thought about it and looked at him with burning eyes: "I don't embarrass you." You said you were interested in the armor car, so I asked about it. β
"The armor cart is powered by a magic heart, do you know how the magic heart works?"
Li Bochen was slightly relieved when he heard him ask this. Although the armor chariot is considered a heavy weapon of soldiers, there are many people who can come into contact with this thing in Infinite City. It's just that most of the soldiers are not from good backgrounds, and few of them are literate. Even the officers, most of them have been promoted from the bottom of the ranks over the years, and they have little knowledge. But his background is different, and the original owner is also literate, so he has always been interested in this car, and he wants to ask more.
He said: "It is to engrave the layers of formations on a thick copper plate, and through exquisite coordination, play different roles and integrate them into one." The technique used in the armor car can provide two forces of water and fire, and the two forces will be clear when they collide, driving the steel machine in the car to operate. β
Sui Ziang smiled: "It's rare to know this." Since we are talking about the army on paper and saying that the armored car has all kinds of shortcomings, it is better to talk about how to improve the battle formation to make it more convenient?"
Li Bochen realized that this Sui Ziang might be a student of art. When it comes to the magic heart formation, it is naturally inferior to him. But when asked how to improve, he had a lot of ideas.
However, just as he was about to speak, he was shocked in his heart - this Sui Ziang's mind is really fine and poisonous!
If he really said the method of "improvement", if he got to the pointβif he had never been on the battlefield, where did he know about it? It is true that it was the "old army" who said it, but this man had said that he was a deserter...... I am afraid that the suspicion of "desertion" is even greater.
If you talk about it in generalities, you will inevitably be laughed at by them, saying that they are just talking on paper. But Li Bochen was already disgusted with this person at this time, and he didn't want to admit defeat in front of him. After a little hesitation, I realized that it was not easy to say that there was a useful "improvement", but I could say something that had nothing to do with "improvement".
