Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 268

Chapter 267: Ma Jun, Heir of the Workers' Family

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for getting one magic weapon card and two mount cards."

Qin Hao, who received the generous reward, was overjoyed, and quickly lifted Liu Ye up and said with a smile, "Now that I have Ziyang, why should I be afraid of millions of yellow scarves!"

Although Qin Hao's words are a bit exaggerated, but now the only one who can compete with the Mojia and Gongshu teams and move back to the disadvantaged position for the Han army is Liu Ye, a craftsman!
"My lord is wrong, although I am ashamed to deserve it." Liu Ye said humbly, but his face was full of confidence.

Seeing this, Wang Yue on the side looked at Qin Hao with a complicated expression. He brought Qin Hao here because he wanted to ask Liu Ye to help make the catapult, but he didn't expect Qin Hao to directly recruit Liu Ye to his command.

A young talent like Liu Ye, who is arrogant and arrogant, was recruited by Qin Hao so easily, which made Wang Yue feel that he had refreshed his three views.

Mu Er's future husband-in-law is not easy!Wang Yue secretly said in his heart.

"By the way, since Ziyang is a disciple of the craftsman, I wonder if he can make catapults?" Qin Hao asked.

Seeing Qin Hao mention the catapult, Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief and finally brought up the topic.

"My lord, this is the right person to ask. Although Ye is a craftsman, he is not an inheritor, nor is he proficient in any equipment. However, the catapult is the equipment Ye is best at, and Ye can guarantee that even if he is a loser from the Mo and Gong families. , can surpass Ye in catapult."

Seeing that Liu Ye was so confident, Qin Hao estimated that he should have studied it specially. Otherwise, how could he have built a thunderbolt car far beyond the ordinary catapult in the original history?
Could it be that Liu Ye has already developed the Thunderbolt car now?Qin Hao thought in surprise.

Both the range and the load of Thunderbolt vehicles are far greater than that of ordinary catapults, and if there are Thunderbolt vehicles in Hulao Pass, even if there are not as many as the other side, they are not afraid of catapults.

"Can Ziyang explain it more clearly?"

Qin Hao is very aware of the power of the thunderbolt car, but he always has to give his subordinates opportunities to show their talents.

When Liu Ye heard that the lord was interested in the catapult, he quickly said: "Ye's catapult is far superior to ordinary catapults in terms of range and accuracy. The range of a normal catapult is about two hundred steps, but the catapult studied by Ye can be If you attack an enemy army three hundred paces away, if you use it with the defense, the range will be even longer."

"Three hundred steps?" Qin Hao said in surprise.

The catapult is clumsy, as long as the range exceeds the enemy's fifty paces, it can basically press the enemy to fight, not to mention the advantage of one hundred paces.

"That's right? The core components of Ye's catapult are different from ordinary catapults. If we continue to study it, there must be room for improvement."

"Sharp weapon." Qin Hao was amazed and asked, "I wonder if Ziyang is named after this car?"

"Name?" Liu Ye was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Isn't that necessary?"

"Why is it unnecessary? This is what Ziyang you improved, and it is naturally different from other catapults."

"Then... please give the lord a name."

"Well..." Qin Hao pretended to be indulging, and after a while he smiled: "Why don't you just call it a thunderbolt car!"

"Thunderbolt car?" Liu Ye said with a smile after repeating a few matches, "Good name. Thank you Lord for the name."

Qin Hao nodded and asked again, "I wonder how many thunderbolts can be made in one month?"

After thinking for a while, Liu Ye replied, "I'm afraid there will be no more than twenty."

"So few?" Qin Hao was surprised: "There are tens of thousands of craftsmen in the craftsman's workshop, but they can't make [-] units a month?"

When Liu Ye heard this, he knew that the lord did not understand this aspect, and he explained with a wry smile: "My lord, some parts of the catapult have no technical content, and ordinary craftsmen can manufacture them, but only the core components can be made by many people. made."

"What can I do? The Yellow Turbans will be in a month at the latest. I'm afraid a decisive battle will be launched." Qin Hao said anxiously: "And twenty Thunderbolt cars are simply not enough to defend the entire Hulao Pass."

"I'm afraid it's too late to teach and learn now." Liu Ye frowned.

"This is how to do?"

Liu Ye frowned and pondered for a while, then said, "Master, don't panic, there is still a way to make up for it."

"What can I do?" Qin Hao said in surprise.

"I beg my Gongjia eldest brother for help."

"Eldest brother?" Qin Hao knew that there might be another goddess to be exposed.

"Eldest brother is the true successor of my Gongjia mechanical skills, and all kinds of mechanical skills are thoroughly familiar." Liu Ye said seriously: "Only he can quickly master the manufacture of core components, and only with his help can we have hope. catch up."

"Who is the senior brother?" Qin Hao asked.

"Master's name is Ma Jun, he is the grandson of the master craftsman Ma Yan, and the grandson of Ma Rong."

"Ma Jun!"

Hearing the name, Qin Hao suddenly exclaimed, this name is like thunder.

Ma Jun, courtesy name Deheng, a native of Fufeng in Liangzhou, was the most outstanding machine manufacturer in the Three Kingdoms period. He stuttered and was not good at speaking, but he liked thinking and was good at using his brain. At the same time, he paid attention to practice and was diligent in his hands.

The new-style weaving machine improved by Ma Jun is not only more refined, simpler and more applicable, but also the production efficiency is four or five times higher than the original one. welcomed by the majority of silk workers.

The keel waterwheel invented by Ma Jun can guide the water in the river to the soil slope. It is extremely convenient to use, and even a child can turn it. One of the most advanced production tools on the market.

In addition to civilian equipment, Ma Jun also made many inventions in the manufacture of military weapons.

When Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, was on the Northern Expedition, he invented the repeating crossbow, which could fire dozens of arrows at a time, and was very powerful.

After seeing the repeating crossbows captured by the Wei army on the battlefield, the old Ma Jun thought that this weapon was a coincidence, but there was still a place for it.

As a result, Ma Jun improved the repeating crossbow, which turned out to be very effective.

In addition, Mayo also redesigned a new type of siege weapon on the basis of the thunderbolt car - the wheeled stone car.

Although the thunder chariot far surpassed the ordinary catapult, it still did not get rid of the shackles of the ordinary catapult.

During the battle, the soldiers pulled the end of the rope hard together, and the end of the stone was lifted up quickly, so that the stone was thrown to attack the enemy, and it took some time for each launch.

Ma Jun's new wheel-type stone-hairing car overcomes these shortcomings. It uses a wooden wheel to hang stones on the wooden wheel. In this way, a machine is installed to drive the wheel to rotate rapidly, and the large stones can be continuously connected. It is launched so that the enemy has no time to defend.
