Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter Four Hundred

Fu Jinzhan stood up and looked into the distance with a smile. She stretched her upper body slightly, raised her head and took a deep breath, "Well..." Wan Zhuan let out a soft sigh, lazily and intoxicated.

Guo Shao stared at her beautiful posture blankly, then turned his head and followed her gaze. I saw the blue sky, the vast and colorful plains, and the large tracts of wheat after the harvest showed bare brown and yellow soil, and the fields were full of white smoke.

"What are those smoke burning?" Fu Jinzhan asked enthusiastically.

Guo Shao took a closer look and said: "The fertility of the ground is very important. After the crops are harvested, the farmer will burn the straw on the spot in the field as fertilizer."

He said that he took out half of the wheat cake from his horse, and ate it with water. Fu Jinzhan glanced at him: "The generals usually eat this? Give me a taste." Guo Shao broke a piece and gave it to her.

Calendula's smooth and vermilion lips opened, the jade-white white porcelain lightly bit a small piece, and the brow wrinkled slightly. Guo Shao smiled and said, "Try chewing more, it will become sweeter."

She chewed for a while, then smiled: "It's really sweet! It's not bad actually..."

Guo Shao said: "This kind of cake is of course not comparable to the finely prepared staple food. It is very coarse to eat at first; but as long as you taste it carefully, you can still taste the sweetness and its original grain aroma."

"It seems very reasonable." Jinzhan pursed his lips and smiled. After a while, she murmured and said softly: "I have never been so comfortable, relaxed and so happy like today... Brother Shao was given to me by the sky. You were lying on the street so inconspicuously in the early morning of wind and rain. Bian Yansi was trembling, it turned out that God was rewarding me with the most inconspicuous way."

Guo Shao listened thoughtfully, his ears turned his ears, as if he was tasting Fu Jinzhan and feeling what she could feel.

Fu Jinzhan turned his head to look at Guo Shao again: "Do you know what I said in the Jinxiang Palace yesterday?"

Guo Shao snorted, looking a bit dull. He didn't say much in his usual life, but he was still very careful in daily life. Fu Jinzhan said, "I think you can always be with me."

Guo Shao thought about it, and gradually understood what Fu Jinzhan meant. Yesterday she said "when I am leaving" (to leave the world) that she wanted Guo Shao to be buried, probably to express a kind of attachment...a bit extreme, but Guo Shao She didn't feel scared, but looked at her face moved. His eyes couldn't help but look at Fu Jinzhan's delicious-looking lips.

Unexpectedly, there was a rush of hoofs in the distance.

The trembling heartstring was interrupted, Guo Shao turned his head and saw that Lu Chengyong and the others finally caught up.

Fu Jinzhan also looked back, squinted his eyes and danced on the straight post road on the plain, and said, "I still want to run between the world and the earth, as comfortable as a bird!"

Guo Shao hugged her on horseback. This time he didn't run so fast, but rode a horse with the two guards. Fu Jinzhan hugged him tightly behind her, the soft touch on her back was thrilling, and her warm|hot face was very comfortable against her vest.

"That river is Cai Shui." Guo Shaoyao pointed to the front, and several hills in the distance of the river came into view. "Drive!" He yelled, speeding up and running towards the mountain.

As the group climbed up a hill, Fu Jinzhan suddenly made a pleasantly surprised sound. On the hillside of Sanqi Lema, there was a noise of "Kang Kang Kang..." in the wind, and other noises suddenly became noisy.

Looking very hard, I saw a large block of flat and vertical houses in front of me. The noise came from that building complex. Behind these hills, beside the Caishui River, there are at least dozens of crude and crude buildings, like a small city rising from the ground. A wide canal was excavated from the Caishui River and led into a valley not far away. It was divided into dozens of tributaries on the side of the mountain. The water flowed straight down the valley from above, like man-made waterfalls. Generally; there are many houses in the valley.

Below the waterfall, you can see the huge wheel of water spinning slowly.

This is not a beautiful natural scenery, but it has a unique style, especially the water wheel is like a Ferris wheel in a playground, it looks very magnificent. No wonder Fu Jinzhan suddenly exclaimed when he saw it.

"This is the Jiafang Workshop?" Fu Jinzhan asked.

Guo Shao said with a smile: "I asked the Queen Mother to directly allocate a large sum of money from Neiku to make armor. The money is out and where it is spent, you see right here."

Fu Jinzhan tilted his eyes slightly, seeing that there were guards immediately behind him, he didn't say a word. The guard now thinks she is Guo Shao's wife Fu Ermei.

"The waterwheel is the most beautiful." Fu Jinzhan said softly, much like Fu Ermei's remarks. Fu Ermei will pay most attention to this simple and intuitive thing.

Guo Shao said, "The waterwheel is something that the Jiafang Administration ordered Li Fang to find someone to get it. I only saw his effect after returning from Shu. This guy is a bit greedy for money, but I was so scared that I was not greedy. It was spent on ideas; this time Zhengshu has gained a lot, and I have to ask the Queen Mother to reward him...Let’s go down and take a look, drive!"

The closer the valley, the louder and louder.

The river water pouring down from above hits the huge water wheel with a "swoosh" loudly. The wheel is not very delicately made, and it makes a great friction when it rotates, and there is a "chuckle" between the conveyor belt; The coming bang bang bang bang was a rhythmic sound, it must be the sound of forging hammers.

The entire forging hammer assembly has basically not changed, that is, the power unit has changed from accumulating power to hydraulic power. The ancients used water trucks in many places, including boats, but it was easy to follow the same pattern and use it... This step is indeed Guo Shaodu Without handling it, he was still fighting in Shu. This kind of workshop is too noisy, and it does make the people noisy for a long time in the city. Now it has moved to the suburbs.

Hydraulic forging hammer! That's how it came out. Guo Shao doesn’t know the structure of the hydraulic forging hammer developed in human history, but it’s definitely not what he sees now. In fact, the device he made is very strange and nondescript, but it can forge a whole piece of metal abrasive tool. ...It's fine if it can be used, he just doesn't know what a hydraulic forging hammer should look like anyway.

"The waterwheel drives this runner. The waterwheel is big and slow, and the runner inside is small and fast." Guo Shao pointed and said.

Fu Jinzhan opened his eyes wide and watched with interest. In this dirty workshop with dust everywhere, she looked like a pearl falling into the ashes, and the scene at this time was very strange.

"Did you see the iron chain hanging on the outside of the wheel?" Guo Shao pointed again, "When turning, because the direction is far and near, the iron chain will be pulled."

The circular motion is transformed into a linear motion, and the efficiency of the transformation seems to be a little low.

At this moment, two civil servants came in, and the Jiafang Office ordered Li Fang to breathe out, almost running. He immediately clasped his fist and said, "Well, see Guo Du for check, Mrs. Guo."

The other official who held the ceremony was Zan Jurun, the Hakka ambassador. Why did this guy come here? Guo Shao ignored the relationship between Jiajiafang and Hakka ambassador.

"Li Shuling, you did a good job." Guo Shao patted him on the shoulder. Fu Jinzhan ignored them. She is now the second sister of Fu, so she can't say that there are rewards for the Ai family.

Li Fang hurriedly said: "The matter is within the matter...The subordinates are overjoyed by Guo Du's inspection."

Guo Shao said: "Continue to work hard, I can't treat you badly."

Fu Jinzhan asked softly, "Is Li Fang made these things?"

Li Fang said hurriedly, "Madam, all things are made according to Guo Du's inspection arrangements. I am looking for them."

Fu Jinzhan couldn't help looking up at Guo Shao.

Guo Shao said: "The hydraulic transmission was made by Li Fang."

"It's not me, it's the treasurer Lu, he built the ship...the person I was looking for." Li Fang said. After hearing this, Guo Shao smiled and said, "It is also a skill to find someone who can use it."

Li Fang laughed and said, "Guo has checked the reputation."

At this time, Guo Shaocai turned his head to look at Zan Jurun, who was hanging aside, and asked, "The Zan envoy came to inspect the Jiafang Office?"

Zan Ju Runzuo said: "A while ago, he attacked Shu, the next official was in the North Route Army as a supervising army, and found that the new armor was very well-defended. The previous ring-lock armor bows and arrows were not very defensible. High, come and see the workshop."

Guo Shao nodded and didn't care. This Zan Jurun has always been an official of the Zhou Dynasty, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is a good official, but there is no problem.

At this time, Zan Jurun said, "The lower official felt that it could be changed. For example, the helmet and the soldiers of the North Road Army said that they are not breathable. The whole iron plate cannot be worn when the weather is hot. Come and let people try another look. General Guo can have a look."

"It's really airtight. I don't feel comfortable wearing it." Guo Shao followed him to see.

I saw all kinds of armors in another room that was used as a warehouse, and there was a small guard at the door who probably managed the things going in and out. A pair of armor hung on a wooden frame, the chest and arms were unchanged, and the helmet and shoulder armor were slightly changed. The helmet is connected by two pieces of armor with rivets. The upper iron plate is pressed against the lower. The middle is breathable, but the connection is two layers, which is not easy to be inserted by weapons. The appearance on the roof has also been changed and inserted. A feather, it does look much better.

Zan Jurun said: "Under the official ranks, I think the armor is a little better, the cosmetic surgery is more powerful, and the morale of the generals is higher. And this shoulder armor, it is easier to move around."

Guo Shao took a closer look and couldn't help but look back at Zan Jurun. The chain armor of the movable part is thickened and connected to the plate armor. In this way, the soldiers can wear it directly without the inner and outer layers, which reduces the weight. Guo Shao could see that the most troublesome aspect of this armor was not the main parts of the plate armor, but the chain armor of the connecting parts, such as skirt armor; of course, the plate armor would consume more iron.

Sure enough, Li Fang said: "The lock armor is laborious and costly. The dozens of workshops on the top are all for making lock armor. Only a dozen sledgehammer workshops below are enough. Fortunately, the inner library is generous with money. Less than a person."

Guo Shaodao: "Li Shulingting will find someone."

Li Fang said: "There are not many masters who make armor, so the lower officials pay the masters to take the apprentices...the queen mother's money."
