Chapter 729 (2/2)
Whoosh!
More than 20 kilograms of stone shot out, throwing a black shadow toward the ground, and then a rapid fall, severely hit the ground. With a huge impact force, the stone bomb suddenly lands, and immediately smashes a soil pit on the ground, and the mud splashes everywhere.
The soldiers in Liangzhou were surprised, while Ma Teng frowned and said, ”this is too uncertain, right?”
”Hehe, it was just a test shot.” Liu Ye said with a smile.
Sure enough, dozens of grass men were set up about 150 steps away, and the stone bullet just fell to the east of the grass man. The stone thrower adjusted the thunderbolt vehicle again and then filled it with a stone bullet.
”Let go
Whoosh!
This time, a stone bullet weighing more than 30 jin was replaced, which was more powerful than that just now, and it fell precisely in the grass man. Weighing more than 30 jin, the stone bomb fell to the ground, and the mud splashed all over the ground, and a few grass people were suddenly twisted.
”Let go
Another stone bullet fell from the sky. This time, it happened to hit a grass man. The grass man was smashed in an instant, and sawdust and straw were splashed everywhere.
”... if the stone bullet falls on the human body, isn't it going to be smashed into flesh and mud?”
Fazhen was astonished and worried: ”it's just that the thunderbolt car is too overbearing. I'm afraid it will hurt Tianhe.”
”What hurts Tianhe? This is ridiculous
After witnessing the power of the thunderbolt car, Ma Teng was unconventional. His eyes lit up and said, ”it's very miserable to pour gold juice on people, but it's a sharp weapon to defend the city. This thunderbolt car is used to attack the city...”
in Ma Teng's mind, it seems that hundreds of thunderbolt cars are aimed at a city, and the scene of indiscriminate bombing together, and hundreds of stone bombs fall from the sky to the city The scene of smashing and breaking.”General! It has to be mass produced. ” Ma Teng said eagerly: ”if you attack the city with this object, no matter what kind of strong city it is, I'm afraid it can be conquered.”
”Well.”
Liu Ye nodded slowly, turned to Fazhen and said, ”Fagong, you personally urge us to build 300 thunderbolt vehicles. Our army's attack on Sichuan and Sichuan, with many strong cities in Bashu, is sure to be useful.”
Fazhen bowed his head and said, ”please rest assured that some migrant workers will be able to build a thunderbolt car in five days. However, the journey to Sichuan is very dangerous. Will our army wait for Hanzhong to build a thunderbolt vehicle?”
”No harm. The thunderbolt car researched by Ziyang can be disassembled, and then it will be good to install it on the vehicle and pull it over. ” Liu Ye explains.
”That's the case. I'm going to transfer civilian drivers to build thunderbolt cars.”
Fazhen immediately dispatched 20000 people from around Chang'an city to cut down the trees around Chang'an city to make thunderbolt cars. The people in Guanzhong respect Liu Ye very much. Therefore, after hearing that this was the order given by Liu Ye, every one of them was full of enthusiasm, not to mention Liu Ye's salary.
Before the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court did not pay for the recruitment of civilian workers, but only paid for food. This is called ”corvee”. According to the law of Qin Dynasty, adult men have to take corvee for four months every year. As part of the tax, the enthusiasm of the people is not high.
Liu Ye, on the other hand, stipulated that he would subsidize the people's grain according to the standard of one stone a month, so the people were full of enthusiasm. Fazhen even said with emotion: ”the great general is considerate of the people's power, which has never been seen before.”
With the concerted efforts of the people, 300 thunderbolt cars were soon built and divided into numerous parts, which were put on wooden carts and pulled to Hanzhong.
Liu Ye, on the other hand, is personally in charge of the 50000 steps in Guanzhong, leading the way to Yangping pass.
