Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty
Vol 2 Chapter 1432: Iron Knight, debut!
"Da da da!"
In the morning of Chang'an City, the streets are like weaving, the screams of traffickers and pawns, the people talking and laughing with each other, the sound of newspaper sellers selling newspapers, and the sound of reading from the Guozijian and Hongwenguan. All kinds of sounds constitute the various forms of sentient beings in Chang'an City in the morning!
But today's Chang'an city is mixed with a different sound, that is the "dada da" sound of iron ingots hitting the bluestone road. It is crisp and cold, and it feels cold to the bones!
Everyone followed the sound and took a breath. They saw a group of heavily armed knights riding high-headed horses and marching toward this side in awe. The hoofs of those war horses seemed to be tied together. Iron ingots, which caused the crisp "dada da" percussions on the street.
However, these are not the most critical. The most intimidating thing is that the leader of the team is actually full of iron armor. Except for the eyes, no body part is exposed, head, neck, limbs, hands and feet. Wrapped in iron armor, even the war horse under his hips was draped with a set of shiny iron horse armor. From a distance, this man seemed to be a knight cast directly from steel!
powerful! Cold! ruthless!
This is the most intuitive feeling this steel knight gave to the people next to the street. People who are close even have a feeling of suffocation!
Therefore, there is no need for someone to clear the way. Every time the Iron Knight walks, the crowd will automatically disperse. This is a deterrence from the soul!
For unknown things, most people will subconsciously feel scared, let alone this kind of steel knight who makes people look terrified!
"Da da da!"
This team of knights is still advancing without delay. The streets that were still lively before became quiet immediately after the team passed by. Not far away, a team of Wuhou heard about the anomaly here. Immediately rushed over, but after seeing the sergeant next to the steel knight, the headed Wuhou couldn't help but waved, and the Wuhous turned and left!
"Hi~!"
Seeing this, the surrounding people took a breath again, secretly asking what the origin of this cavalry came from, Wuhou even hurriedly avoided when he saw it?
However, although they had doubts in their hearts, no one dared to ask them at this time. After all, everyone was afraid to annoy the Iron Knight.
After this strange cavalry had gone far, the people on the street couldn't help discussing with each other.
"God! What is the origin of the cavalry who was wearing armor just now? It looks terrifying! Just like the undead cavalry coming out of the underworld!"
"Shit~! The second king, you are talking like you have seen a **** cavalry! Tut! But the man wearing steel armor all over his body is indeed quite evil. Standing next to him, I feel that the soles of my feet are all there. Take a breath!"
"Yes, that's right! That person is terrifying! If I didn't cover my third child's mouth just now, I guess this kid was so scared to cry on the spot!"
"How can anyone in this world wrap their whole body in iron armor? Wouldn't it affect walking?"
"That's right! This iron armor is down, it's 40-50 catties, less said, and the limbs are wrapped with iron, which is inconvenient to move!"
"No, right! I just saw the knight's hand holding the reins and the hand holding the horse's, and the movements are very flexible!"
"Hey! How could that be possible? If that's the case, wouldn't this knight be invulnerable and no one can beat him on the battlefield?"
"Hey! Really! That man's whole body, except for his eyes, is wrapped in iron armor, and even the horse under his hips is wearing horse armor. Who can break his defense!"
"Where did this cavalry come from? Why didn't the Wuhous of Wuhou Mansion stop them?"
"I...I just seemed to see the leader of Yonganhou's Pang!"
"What? Zheng Laoqi, are you right?"
"It should be correct, I have seen Commander Pang before!"
"Hey! Doesn't that mean that the cavalry belongs to Lord Hou? It can even be said that the people in the steel armor are Yongan Hou?"
"...Perhaps it is really possible! I just don't know what Hou Ye did with his troops to Chang'an City? Does Hou Ye think..."
"Snapped!"
"What do you want? Thinking of you! How can you rebel with those ten or so cavalry? Besides, Yonganhou is upright and loyal, and he is even more loyal to His Majesty today. How can he do that rebellious act?"
……………………………………………
The common people talked a lot about the cavalry that suddenly appeared. At this time, the early dynasty was also going lively in the court.
"...As of now, more than 100 prefectures and counties close to the Yellow River Basin have built a total of more than 30,000 miles of ditches and more than 4,300 waterwheels. The current drought conditions in all prefectures and counties have been alleviated, and this has not affected this year's Planting seedlings, it is expected that in half a month, the people will be able to harvest wheat!"
In the Taiji Hall, Xiao Yu, the Shangshu of the Household Department, is reporting to Li Er the drought resistance of various states and counties in Guanzhong.
Sitting at the top of Li Er, after listening to Xiao Ha’s report, his face did not show the slightest joy, because although the drought in Guanzhong has been greatly alleviated, and the summer harvest can be achieved in half a month, but Li The second president felt that the court had spent so much effort, and in the end it was very likely to be "feeding the locusts"!
According to the predictions left by Li Zexuan before, the locust plague is coming soon!
"Well! Xiao Aiqing has worked hard!"
After a while, Li Er recovered from his meditation and nodded.
"His Majesty!"
At this time, Wei Zheng stepped forward and said, "The old minister thought that the drought in Guanzhong could be alleviated so quickly, and Yongan would have contributed to it! If it weren't for the waterwheel he designed, most of the farmland in Guanzhong area may still be in a dry state. , Let alone planting seedlings and harvesting in summer!
Your Majesty has always been rewarded and punished, so the old minister believes that Yonganhou has made a waterwheel and dedicated the waterwheel drawings to the court, and deserves a reward! "
Please reward! And it's not for your own reward!
When the officials heard this, they couldn't help but look at Wei Zheng with a strange expression. When did the dignified Wei Xuancheng actually ask for rewards for others? Could it be that the sun came out from the west today!
Cheng Yaojin stared at Wei Zheng's back with a smile, secretly asking why this old Wei looked more pleasing to the eye?
But no matter what others think, Wei Zheng himself does not have any selfish intentions. The reason why he wanted to help Li Zexuan ask for a reward was mainly because of the phrase Li Zexuan said at the beginning of the Bahe River, "If you live in the temple, you are worried about the people; If you are far away, you are worried about his monarch." He moved him. He felt that Li Zexuan was a very good junior and worthy of support!
Li Er also looked at Wei Zheng curiously, and then said indifferently: "We don't need to worry about this matter! This time Li Zexuan has done something to fight the drought, and I have already rewarded him in private!"
Wei Zheng frowned, subconsciously thinking that Li Er was deliberately perfuncting him, so he handed over his hands and said, "The minister dare to ask your Majesty how he rewarded him?"
No matter how good the temper is, Li Er couldn't help being a little angry at this time. He frowned and said displeased: "Huh? Wei Aiqing is this suspecting me?"
The coldness in the words can be heard by fools, but Wei Zheng, who is used to seeing the big scenes, is not afraid, "The old minister dare not!"
Wei Zheng arched his hands.
He said that he dare not, but the look on his face, a fool could see that he was duplicity!
"you……"
Li Er pointed at Wei Zheng, and wanted to go crazy in class, but at this moment, a Jin Wuwei came in and said with his fist:
"His Majesty, please see you Yongan Hou!"
Li Er couldn't help but rejoice, and said: "Quickly declare! Just let Wei Aiqing confront him, and see if I have rewarded Yonganhou!"
After that, he glanced at Wei Zheng who was in the hall.
But who knows that Jin Wuwei did not take the order, but hesitated: "Your Majesty, request to bring soldiers, wear armor, and ride horses into the temple! Said to give your Majesty a surprise!"
When this remark came out, everyone was shocked!
All the civil and military officials, eunuchs and palace ladies were stunned, and even Li Er couldn't help being stunned for a while!
Since Qin Shihuang opened the early dynasty, there has never been a courtier wearing armor, holding weapons, and riding a war horse in the early dynasty. This is a disrespect for the emperor and a treason!
"Absurd! Nonsense!"
Wei Zheng was the first to reprimand: "Your Majesty, Yonganhou acted recklessly and had no ruler. The old minister asked his Majesty to rule Yonganhou for the crime of "disturbing the court and having no ruler"!"
Li Er had been relieved from the shock at this time, and couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Wei Aiqing, it was you who asked for rewards for Yonganhou before, and now you are also the one who asks for the punishment of Yonganhou sin. You repeat this repeatedly. Complex, how can I be good?"
Wei Zheng struck his neck and insisted proudly: "Your Majesty, these are totally different things! The old minister also said before, Your Majesty has always been rewarding and punishing. Naturally, you should be rewarded where you have done meritorious services. Where there is a mistake, of course Should be punished!"
Li Er nodded and said solemnly: "Okay! What a reward for merit, and punishment for a past! If you come, let Yonganhou come in immediately, and let the hundreds of civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty comment on what merit is for Yonganhou today. I did!"
"Your Majesty, don't! How can a courtier carry armor and ride up to the hall on the court?"
Wei Zheng was shocked and said quickly.
Li Er waved his hand and said: "My intention has been decided, right and wrong, after Yongan Hou goes to the palace, all the Aiqing will make comments!"
Wei Zheng had no choice but to withdraw.
He was full of questions, wondering why Li Zexuan clearly had a great future to go, why he had to do such a ignorant thing to ruin his future.
"Second brother, this... Xiaoxuan will be fine, right?"
Cheng Yaojin looked anxious and asked Qin Qiong beside him in a low voice.
Qin Qiong shook his head and said, "Knowledge, stay calm and restless! Look at the situation before you talk, it's not necessarily a bad thing!"
Upon seeing this, Cheng Yaojin had to sink his heart and wait for Li Zexuan to enter the hall.
Among the ranks of civil servants, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others have been silent all the time, making one wonder what they are thinking!
"Da da da!"
Not long after, there was a crisp "Da Da Da" sound from outside the hall, and everyone followed their reputations and saw a knight wearing a silver full-body armor, holding a cold and dazzling horse in his hand, riding a horse. The horse was wrapped in a horse armor and slowly walked into the hall!
"Boom boom!"
In the face of such a mighty but strange cavalry, many officials in the civilian ranks were scared back a few steps, and in the military attache camp, many generals had their eyes bright after seeing the steel cavalry!
It's like the light in the eyes of a wolf when it sees its prey!
"boom!"
Before coming to the team of hundred officials, the steel knight flexibly jumped off the horse, then pinned the horse to the saddle, and clasped his fist towards Li Er: "Courier Li Zexuan, see your majesty! Today, I will bring the soldiers and the war horses to face. There is a reason for this, and I hope your majesty will forgive me!"
Everyone was stunned at this moment!
They were not surprised by what Li Zexuan said, but Li Zexuan's movements of dismounting and holding his fists in one go, without any stagnation at all. This made the civil and military officials, especially the generals, almost exclaimed one by one. Up!
Li Er is also an expert in the military formation. How can he not see the outstandingness of Li Zexuan's armor, he waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be polite! What kind of armor are you wearing?"
Li Er knowingly asked ~www.ltnovel.com~ because Li Zexuan told him about the new-style armor a few days ago, and now I ask again, mainly for the help of civil and military officials.
Li Zexuan also roughly understood what Li Er meant, and replied: "My Majesty, the minister wears the latest vanadium steel armor made by the workshop. This armor is not only lighter than Mingguang armor, but also has a far greater defense and defense range. Better than Mingguang armor, this plate armor can withstand all sword and arrow damage, and with a horse wearing a horse armor, a cavalry like this can completely rush on the battlefield and be invincible!"
"Plate!"
After listening to Li Zexuan's introduction, all the officials in the hall changed their colors in amazement, and they talked quietly.
"What? The weight of this plate armor is even lighter than Mingguang armor. How is this possible?"
"Yes! This plate armor obviously covers the whole body, and the Mingguang armor only protects the key parts. How can the plate armor be lighter than Mingguangkai?"
"But this plate armor is indeed very flexible. Just now Yonganhou jumped off the horse directly, indicating that wearing the plate armor does not affect normal movements!"
"This alone is very powerful! After all, it can protect all parts of the body, and it is invulnerable on the battlefield. It is completely invincible!"
"If this kind of plate armor can be fully equipped in the army, why should I be afraid of Turks?"
"Yes, that's right! A plate cavalry like this can completely destroy the Turks!"
When hundreds of civil and military officials were talking about it, Duan Zhixuan suddenly took a step forward, holding his fist and saying, "Your Majesty, the minister dares to try the defensive power of this Mingguang armor in the hall!"
As soon as the voice fell, the hall suddenly became quiet, and the gazes of the civil and military officials turned to Li Er.
Li Er pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Quasi!"
