Chapter 383: Thunder Car
Since the placement of [Impatient Ghost] Zhou Jin, Liangshan County has been fine. Zhao Zhen just practiced martial arts every day and feasted with heroes everywhere. Every ten days, bring four people back to the main world for sealing.
The heroes in Liangshan and Shouzhang only train men and horses and teach martial arts every day. The leaders in the water village all learned how to sail boats, go to the water, and fight on the boats.
Because Liangshan has a vast water bank, it is much more convenient to travel to and from various places. After Zhao Zhen discussed with Wu Yong, they took advantage of the hot weather and asked the military generals from various places to go to the Fu River near the river. They don't want to be able to fight in the water, but they just want the soldiers to be able to struggle for a while after falling into the water and wait for rescue.
In the blink of an eye, it was mid-August, and Zhao Zhen had already ordered Zhu Fu to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
Different from last year, at this time last year, there were only fifteen heroes. Now looking at the crowd in the hall, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but feel happy and contented. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, it's sunny and bright. At dusk and the moon rises, lanterns are lit in every village and alley, and there are social fires in the streets and alleys. The villagers all over the county had no worries about food and clothing, enjoying the moon and drinking wine, and it was very lively.
A group of heroes gathered together, laughing and chatting, drinking and drinking. There was also Ma Lin playing the flute and singing music, while Cheng Wan'er and Bai Zhi led the others to make peace. After the wine was half drunk, everyone moved to the school grounds. Yuanyang Tou led his two disciples to start the show. Later, Zhao Zhen's concubines Chu Yuan and Chu Yan also brought several girls to play tricks. Fourth Sister Hei and others also followed During the performance, Jiao Ting, Cao Tielin and other sumo apprentices competed. Everyone enjoys it.
Everyone was very drunk that night.
After the excitement, everyone returned to their respective places.
At the beginning of the month, Zhao Zhen spent 10 points of luck to activate the Earth Demon Summoning.
World Log
In August, 10 points of luck were consumed. Tong Wei and Tong Meng, the smugglers of the Xunyang River, were wanted by the government and could not hide. They heard that [Xiao Mengchang] 】Zhao Zhen's reputation came to seek refuge.
Looking at the nicknames of these two people, you can tell that they are also heroes in the water. Zhao Zhen was secretly happy to see them. He had been waiting for the two of them to arrive these days.
On this day, Zhao Zhen was practicing riding and shooting at the South Camp. Zhao Yuanli sent someone to report. Baivarhan built five thunder chariots and rushed to the school field to show them to the high officials.
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen resigned from Lin Chong and the other heroes, together with the female cavalry, rode back to Baishi Manor.
On the school field, five thundercars were placed in a row. The car was one foot four feet wide, two feet four feet deep, and three feet tall. The front is carved with the head of a giant beast, painted in five colors, with two big and small eyes. Three wheels, eight horses, one shaft, divided into three levels. There are four roller coasters behind the car.
Zhao Zhen looked at it for a while and didn't know what was so powerful about it. Seeing Bai Varhan's complacent look, he asked Liu Huiniang to watch it with him.
Liu Huiniang looked at the car inside and out and praised: "Jian Cheng is really ingenious. This car is more flexible than Lu Gong's car." Then she explained the advantages of the car. Once again, I heard Liu Huiniang say: "This car is indeed extraordinary. The small wheel in the front turns flexibly, and there are springs under the car, so there are less bumps. There are pointed feet on the side of the wheel, and it can pass through ditches under eight feet and horses under five feet. Two more iron grates are dragged behind the hub to prevent iron caltrops. If the troops are turned back, the bows and crossbows are still pointing outwards. The enemy cannot camp anywhere and use the chariots as a barrier. Resting inside is a camp."
Then he asked Bai Varhan, "Prince Cheng, what I said is right."
After hearing this, Bai Varhan praised. It is said that Madam has a clever mind and is good at making utensils. I don’t think Madam can see the advantages of this car after just one look.”
Liu Huiniang said: "This car is divided into three levels. I don't know how to arrange it inside?"
Bai Varhan heard this and said: "Madam, please look, these two beast eyes go straight into the car. The people on the upper floor are looking at it." It can be used as two embrasures. I went through all the artillery and muskets led by Brother Ling Zhen, and selected three muskets as weapons. Four people put four muskets on them, two to fire the muskets, and two to load them. Gunpowder pellets."
"The soldiers on the middle level were all in the mouth of the beast. They used six soldiers to jump on the crossbow, and the crossbow arrows were shot out of the mouth."
"The soldiers on the next level were inside. Under the chin of the giant beast, there are six spears and four hooks, which are used as beards. The warriors with hooks and spears inside are covered with three layers of rawhide and fastened with big mushroom nails. In this time, no guns, arrows or cannons can harm him."
"There is a shaft and four weights behind the chariot, and four people are riding eight horses. The eyes and ears of the whole army turned left and right, advanced and retreated, and the four men driving the horses all looked at this man's command flag."
Zhao Zhen asked: "How do sergeants practice?" "No need to practice, you can master this car with just a finger." Bai Varhan said.
Zhao Zhen heard this and selected 25 people from the sergeants. After Bai Varhan lectured them, they hitched up five draft horses, twenty-one people got on the carriage, and five people drove the horses. . When the car started, it moved forward and back as expected. The five cars moved together, which was even more impressive.
After Zhao Zhen saw it, he praised it repeatedly.
Liu Huiniang said: "Guardian, although this car is good, it is still limited by the terrain. It cannot go to the mountains, tidal flats, and woods. I think about it carefully, this car can still be broken, as long as there is good If you shoot, the person on the beast's forehead will be shot, and the car will have no eyes and ears. This car can only be used as a surprise soldier. If it is used more, the enemy will naturally have a way to defeat the enemy."
Bai Varhan said: "Madam, how can my car be so broken? Once the people on the watchtower are shot and killed, the four three-eyed gunmen on the upper level can take over the command flag and continue to command."
Liu Huiniang said: "Besides, if I know about this car, I must take precautions in advance and set up a trap. As soon as the car comes up, pull the thousand catty rope, the wheel column will fall, and the ground will be covered for several miles. It instantly turned into a trap. In this way, the car was just covered with a thick tortoise shell. If there was a flying divine thunder, the landing point should be calculated in advance. When the car thundered, all the sergeants on top would be turned into powder. Most of the upper-level sergeants were also injured. There was also a firearm in the Forbidden City, which was called a fire oil cabinet. It was made of wrought copper and was filled with oil. When it comes out, everything turns into a raging flame, and everyone inside is rotten, and water cannot extinguish it. Although the chariot of Jiancheng is strong, it cannot prevent the fierce fire."
After hearing this, Bai Varhan was convinced and said: "Teach yourself. I have read the "Lunji Sutra" and never obeyed others. Today I know that there are people outside the world, and there is a world outside the world. If you are prepared for a sudden encounter, you will definitely win a battle. If you can build hundreds of them, you will be invincible on the ground." Zhao Zhen asked after hearing this: "Brother, how much does this car cost?"
"These five vehicles, not counting the ordnance inside, cost a total of 800 pieces of materials and craftsmen."
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "In that case, I asked Brother Jiang Jing to allocate the materials and ask Brother Supervise the craftsmen to build 100 chariots first, and then select 2,500 men to form an army of chariots as a surprise force."
"Please ask brothers to urge the craftsmen to build a sunken snail boat. . Madam’s water-defending cannon and underwater volley cannon are also powerful weapons in water warfare. The combination of the two will have a miraculous effect.” The shell can accommodate thousands of people, and the small one can hide thirty or fifty people. It can move the waterwheel under the water without fear of wind and waves. People can hide lights in the boat and prepare enough dry food. It can last for a few days. Unfortunately, there is no offensive weapon underwater. If it can be combined with Madam's underwater volley, it will be very powerful. Now I want to supervise the construction of the Thunder Chariot. How about asking Madam to supervise the construction of Shen Luo Zhou? "
With that said, Bai Varhan took out a book from his arms and handed it to Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen took it and saw that it was the Turbine Sutra that Bai Varhan was talking about.

After Zhao Zhen read it, he handed the book to Liu Huiniang. After Liu Huiniang read it, she said: "Jian Cheng, the record of Shen Luozhou in this book is clear. I used it to build the boat first. Is there anything I don't understand?" I'll ask the supervisor again. If it's compatible with underwater cannons, I'm afraid it will take some time to figure it out."
Bai Varhan said: "It doesn't matter, I have never made this sinking snail boat, I just got it from my father. I learned the theory from Chu and figured it out by myself. If you encounter any problems while building the boat, I will discuss it later."
Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Meng Kang in the county is good at making various kinds of boats. You can also ask for details.”
