After watching Uncle Shan Yang Mazi and others leave, Zhang Sheng began to get busy, and the temporary camp also became busy.
After finding a wooden board and writing and drawing on it for a long time, the wooden board was transferred to the hands of Shitou, Uncle Bao and others.
Cut down trees and make catapults!
As an engineering dog majoring in mechanics in the 21st century, it is not a big problem to build a simple catapult. In the past few days, I can make several of them.
When attacking Guangchang, if Yang Mazi is not strong enough to open the city gate, he will have to rely on them to break the city. Zhang Sheng does not want to take human lives when attacking the city.
Zhang Sheng wanted to prefabricate the trebuchet. The only regret may be that due to the limited materials and the two or three days of transportation, the thing would not be too big and the corresponding power would be greatly reduced.
Trees as thick as a bowl were cut down and turned into logs of suitable length; animal skins were divided into strips and twisted into leather ropes in the hands of women and old men.
Thanks to Zhang Sheng's special search for Liu's Wubao, there was no shortage of craftsmen and tools.
A simple catapult gradually took shape, was assembled, assembled, and then tried to be thrown.
Amid the shouts of the bandits, a stone weighing more than a hundred kilograms was thrown a distance of two to three hundred steps.
The thieves cheered excitedly.
They know that with this treasure, their hope of conquering Guangchang County will be greatly increased, and when they attack the city, their hope of survival will also be much greater.
"Commander, the baby is good." Zeng Niu, who was following him, looked at the spot where the stone fell and couldn't help but admire it.
Not bad?
In Zhang Sheng's opinion, it should be still far behind.
As far as he knew, in the cold weapon era, the Song Dynasty was probably the one who achieved the ultimate in these things. The catapults at that time could throw almost five or six hundred steps, not to mention the offensive and defensive weapons like the Eight Ox Crossbow.
Compared with that time, this thing now is really child's play.
"Old Niu, it's good if it's good. Even though we have this thing, in any battle, the human factor still plays a leading role. Do your best and don't let me down when you attack the city."
Zhang Sheng was dissatisfied with these catapults, but that was because he believed that these crooked men under his command still needed to be taught and encouraged from time to time.
The anger can only be inflated, not vented!
"Don't worry, Marshal. With this treasure, I will definitely not disappoint the Marshal." Although Zeng Niu didn't understand what it meant to drop the chain, it did not affect his understanding of the meaning of this sentence. He raised his right hand and held it. He beat his chest loudly with his fists to show his determination.
"Da Wei, you did a good job." After Zhang Sheng smiled at Zeng Niu to encourage him, he approached a man next to him who was in his early thirties and as thin as a stick to praise him.
"Zhang Shuai, I haven't done anything. It's your idea." Da Wei's face was full of excitement and he quickly complimented the leader in front of him.
It wouldn't be a compliment.
Wei Da is really satisfied with his current life.
Ever since he was brought into Montenegro from Liu's Wubao by these thieves, he thought that his future life would definitely be worse than Liu's Wubao. Unexpectedly, since then, his life has undergone earth-shaking changes. describe.
There are no more beatings and scoldings from the master, and there are no more whips and sticks from the stewards. Not only that, slaves like me who were brought out of Liu's Wubao with some skills not only did not need to participate in combat training, but also received preferential treatment everywhere. Food rations were rationed according to soldiers, and the thatched houses in the valley were divided among wounded soldiers. It was the turn of people like me, and the thieves were polite to them. I had only seen such a good life in my dreams before, so what else could I be dissatisfied with?
"Hahahaha, you guys are also indispensable. Come on, bring out more apprentices. If you are disobedient and can't learn well, go ahead and beat them up. If you are dissatisfied, tell me and I will support you."
Zhang Sheng knew in his heart that he would not have celebrities and geniuses like Zhuge, Guo Jiaxun, Yu and Jia Xu around him to serve him. They would use tricks to play with their brains, and they would play tricks on him and not even a scumbag would be left. He wanted to In this troubled world, the only things you can rely on are the thieves around you and the things in your head.
Technology is the primary productive force!
One force can defeat ten!
If you can't beat your brains, try your strength.
Carpenters are also skilled trades and must be supported.
"Be obedient, the children are very obedient." Wei Da quickly defended himself for some of the young men following him.
If you have plenty to eat and no one to scold you, wouldn't you be a fool if you don't obey and learn your skills?
"Just be obedient and keep working hard. Our good days are yet to come."
Zhang Sheng looked at the two figures in the distance, frowned, left a word of encouragement to Wei Da, and walked forward...
"Brother, just rest. How can you do the work of these rough men? I guess that thief doesn't dare to do anything to our brothers. Don't worry, I won't eat their free food. I will carry a few more logs later." That's it." Zhao Yun looked at his eldest brother who was sweating on his forehead and panting, snatching away the firewood he had picked up and throwing it on the ground, and kept persuading him heartbrokenly.
"Ayun, it's okay for me to be a brother. I've been moving around and sweating a lot these past few days, but I feel much more relaxed." Zhao Feng straightened his aching waist and comforted his younger brother.
To be self-reliant means to be self-reliant.
In the past few days, Zhao Feng reflected on Zhang's accusations a few days ago, and suddenly found that many of what the traitor said made sense.
A true man should cultivate himself, manage his family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. This is a good idea. If a person cannot even take care of himself or support himself, how can he talk about self-cultivation? How to govern the country and bring peace to the world?
"Brother, you have to do this rough work. As long as you are happy, I have nothing to say. It's just that you have to wait until you feel better." Zhao Yun took a step back.
"Brother, what kind of catapult did thief Zhang create? I think it's very powerful. I wonder where this thief is going to cause harm?" Zhao Yun had seen the catapult launched just now, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious at this time. .
Where is the harm?
After hearing his younger brother's inquiry, Zhao Feng, who thought he had seen through everything, looked at Pu Yin outside the mountain with a little melancholy in his eyes.
This was the fiefdom of Chen Ping, the famous Xiangqu Ninihou in the early Han Dynasty. It was located on an important road, densely populated, with abundant warehouses and abundant grain. Where else could we attack besides Puyin?
well……
I just don’t know how many deaths this thief will cause in this battle?
"Brother, do you think that what we are doing now counts as aiding the evildoers?" Zhao Yun did not realize what Zhao Feng was thinking and asked again.
Does this count as aiding the tyrants?
Hearing the younger brother's question, Zhao Feng felt a trace of pain in his heart, and his eyes became more melancholy. At this moment, he no longer knew how to answer the younger brother's question...
