Prancing Horse Xiliang

Chapter 305 Lifting Equipment
Some soldiers brought in a large sawn stake and spread cloth on it.

Luo Zheng took the brush and sketched on it.Xu Chu, Xu Huang, and Jia Jie who rushed over stood by, all stretching their necks to look around, full of doubts in their hearts, not knowing what he was painting.

It was not until more than a dozen pieces of cloth were wasted for the painting that a relatively satisfactory picture was drawn.

Luo Zheng picked up the cloth, took a few breaths, and dried the ink.

Xu Chu couldn't help but asked, "What is this drawn by my lord?"

Luo Zheng smiled and said: "This is a hoisting tool that the general came up with."

"Hanging tool?"

Xu Chu scratched his head, still full of doubts.

"Not bad!"

Luo Zhengdao: "This thing can lift blue bricks and boulders to the top of the city, and it is extremely labor-saving. As long as blacksmiths and cement workers get a few more sets of such tools, they can save a lot of manpower and increase the speed of building the city!"

"Is this thing so powerful?"

Xu Chu's eyes widened with disbelief.

Jia Xu and Xu Huang also looked in disbelief, staring at the pattern for a long time, but didn't see any mystery.

Luo Zhengdao: "Don't ask too much, go and call the construction craftsman!"

Xu Huang agreed, and immediately ordered someone to call the craftsman.

Not long after, five or six craftsmen ran over sweating profusely.

Xu Chu immediately withdrew his eyes, put his hand on the hilt of his sword and stared at the craftsmen.

The craftsmen immediately felt as if they were being watched by a tiger, and their calves cramped.

"Come on, look at this!"

Luo Zheng spread the cloth on the stakes, and motioned for several craftsmen to come forward and take a closer look.

"This is……"

The chief craftsmen looked at it for a long time, but they didn't understand it, and hesitated.

Luo Zhengdao: "This is a kind of lifting tool that the general came up with for lifting blue bricks and boulders. Look here..."

It took a lot of eloquence to explain this crude lifting equipment clearly.

It's really that his painting level is too bad. Not only are many places specious, but some key places are simply painted tigers, which can't be understood by anyone except himself.

The eyes of several craftsmen's heads lit up when they heard this, and all of them looked happy.

Jia Xu, Xu Huang and others don't understand these things, so how can craftsmen like them not understand them.

After listening to Luo Zheng's explanation, I immediately understood what a huge impact this tool can bring.

However, some craftsmen still raised doubts.

"General, it's not easy!"

One of the blacksmith chiefs said: "Some of the parts inside are very troublesome to forge. Even if we barely polish them with our current ability, the quality will not keep up. I'm afraid it will be difficult to withstand the force of the bite!"

Luo Zheng waved his hand and said: "This is not a problem!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to Jia Xu: "Send Wen Ruo a letter and ask him to ask Lao Ma to bring some skilled blacksmiths over to make some more delicate parts in the shortest possible time!"

Jia Xu nodded and went to do it immediately.

"Go, go and see!"

Luo Zheng waved his hand and strode down the hill.

Xu Chu and Xu Huang hurriedly followed, while three hundred personal guards surrounded them.

I walked around the construction site until the sun was about to set before going to a ferry ten miles away.

Ten miles to the east of Tongguan's new site, a dense tent has already been set up on the south bank of the open river.

As early as when Tongguan was under construction, Gan Ning moved the water army village here. After Tongguan was completed, he could move the water army village to Tongguan. Jun Dazhai is connected with Tongguan.

Since Luo Zheng decided to attack Xudu with light cavalry, Gan Ning rushed back to the water army Dazhai, while waiting for the mobilization of food and fodder, he ordered to set up a camp on the south bank for Luo Zheng's army to rest here after they arrived.

The sun has set, and the golden glow in the sky has not yet dissipated.

Gan Ning stood at the gate of the camp, looking eagerly.More than a dozen navy generals followed around, waiting anxiously.

"Why haven't you come yet!"

A small school couldn't bear it any longer, scratched his head and let out a soft beep.

Gan Ning immediately glared at him, "Just wait, why are there so many nonsense!"

"hey-hey!"

The little school laughed twice, and obediently closed his mouth.

Gan Ning glared at more than a dozen navy generals one by one, and said fiercely: "Cheer up for me, whoever dares to let me off the chain, I will put him in a sack and sink him into the river to feed the fish. Damn!"

"Don't worry, Dudu, the general will never embarrass you!"

All the generals immediately straightened their chests and said in unison.

Originally, these guys who came from river thieves were always called Big Brother Gan Ning.In order to change their titles, these guys were often dealt with by Gan Ning, and a few guys who often slipped the tongue even received more than one board.

After all, it's not the time to be a Jiang thief, and what should be paid attention to is still to be paid attention to.

Although the lord is magnanimous, Gan Ning has to pay attention.

In the navy, from low-level officers to high-ranking generals, either Jinfan bandits or Jiangxia bandits recruited by Gan Ning are absolutely rare. If you don't pay attention, it will inevitably cause some misunderstandings.

"That's good!"

Gan Ning said in a deep voice: "The navy has been organized for more than a year. Apart from training or training, you don't even have to fight bandits. Finally, you have a chance to perform. You must perform well and don't embarrass me! "

All the navy generals responded with a loud bang, all of them excited.

After waiting for about half a stick of incense, Luo Zheng led five thousand cavalry to arrive.

"I have seen the lord!"

Gan Ning hurriedly led a group of navy generals to meet him.

"Xingba is free!"

Luo Zheng waved his hand and didn't get off his horse, saying: "Go, let's talk about the advanced camp!"

Gan Ning hurriedly stepped aside, and after Luo Zheng passed by, he brought the navy general and followed him in.

Chinese army tent.

Luo Zheng met all the generals and schools of the Sima Commander of the Navy Army before he asked Gan Ning, "Xingba, has the food and grass been in place?"

Gan Ning replied: "The first batch of grain and grass in Zheng County has been delivered, and they are all loaded on the ship, ready to leave at any time. The grain and grass in Chang'an should be delivered within three days."

Luo Zheng was still a little worried, and said: "From Huayin to Sishuiguan, is the river safe?"

Gan Ning said excitedly: "My lord, don't worry, the general has sent a small group of sailors to visit Sishui Pass several times. Although there are some places where the current is relatively fast, as long as the warship is well controlled, passage is not a problem at all."

Luo Zhengdao: "Is there any possibility of being ambushed?"

Gan Ning said: "From here to Sishui Pass, the only area around Hangu Pass is very steep. There are a few cliffs where ambushes can be laid to intercept the river, but the general has already sent out sentries. Sorry for any mistakes!"

Luo Zheng sighed: "It seems that if you don't take back Hangu Pass, it will always be a hidden danger!"

Jia Xu suddenly said: "Master, I have a plan, maybe I can take Hangu Pass by the way!"

Luo Zheng's spirit lifted, and he said: "The plan will come out?"

Jia Xu made a fuss right away... (A great event where the pie falls from the sky, a cool mobile phone is waiting for you!
