Daqin Engineers

Chapter 19

Needless to say what happened next.

Yang Ting Yi Ji issued the order.

For a time, grass-roots people planted flags everywhere on the Great Wall, and from time to time there were several groups of soldiers running past, and it seemed that the crowds were very crowded.

In private, Yang Ting took the time to rush to Cixian.

Everything is done with information blocked.

It is said that it is not easy to "secret" in the era of cold weapons.

In modern times, it’s better to say that all messages are transmitted by telephone, telegram, and the like.

Although these gadgets are delivered fast, they are all traceable and easier to block.

Such as cutting off the telephone line, radio silence, etc.

On the contrary, it was even more difficult to blockade in ancient times when the equipment was backward.

Because at this time, the spy’s method of transmitting information will be pigeons, ciphers, letters, etc., which can be said to be impossible to prevent.

Fortunately, Qin Jun's army is strict and disciplined.

In fact, it is not just that the military discipline is strict, but the Qin army adopts the continuous sitting system.

The so-called continuous sitting system is that the Qin army compiles a book with five units as a unit. One person commits a crime and the other four will be held responsible.

So at any time, there will be four people staring at anyone, and a slight abnormality will soon be found and reported.

Under such a strict, rigorous, or even harsh system, it is difficult for spies to enter the Qin army.

At the same time, it is difficult for traitors to appear within the Qin Army.

Even if there are traitors and spies, it is difficult to spread the information.

All these were arranged, and the catkins served Yang Ting a pot of dirty wine.

Catkins has served Yang Ting for many years, knowing that Yang Ting is used to drinking a few cups to relieve fatigue after busy.

It is said that in this era, the proper thing about wine is a luxury. Even soldiers in the army can only drink a bowl before going out on the battlefield.

Ordinary people want to drink, so they can only share some sacrifices during the sacrifice.

If ordinary people drink alcohol casually, it is another crime to be found out.

There are many similar laws in Qin State, such as stipulating that ordinary people cannot wear silk socks and shoes.

This seems to be a kind of discrimination against the people... Why should the people not be able to become officials?

But in fact, this is a legal requirement for people to be frugal.

So as to put as many materials and manpower into the war as possible.

After a few glasses of wine, the catkins opened the chatterbox:

"Miss."

"That Zhang Xuan is considered a personal character in the army. I don't want to be embarrassed by Shen Bing today!"

"Shen Bing's mouth is really amazing!"

Yang Ting smiled and shook her head.

"You still said that Shen Bing was just a mouthful?"

"Which of the things he said today can't be derived without a deep understanding of the art of war?"

The catkins couldn't help but wonder.

"Proficient in the art of war?"

"Miss is saying... Then Shen Bing has learned the art of war?"

"But he is just a soldier, how can he..."

No wonder the catkins are strange.

The education system of Qin State is to cultivate talents by standard.

The rich second generation, the official second generation, or the outstanding people among the common people will be converted into disciples who specialize in learning.

These people with disciple status are not required to serve, and only after completing their studies will they be removed from disciple status and sent to the military.

They usually serve as officers and lead troops to fight, such as Zhang Xuan.

If Shen Bing had learned the art of war, he would naturally not be a warrior.

Yang Ting was holding the Jiu Chen thoughtfully.(Note 1)

"I am also weird about this."

"Shen Bing is not a disciple, so where does his art of war come from?"

"It's not like he has learned the art of war, because the art of war he said is not what I have learned.

"Although some similarities can be found, some places seem to be much better."

The words only surprised the catkins that his jaw almost fell off.

"Miss is saying that Shen Bing's art of war is better than that of Sun Wu?"

Yang Ting shook her head.

"It's not that he is better than Sun Wu, but..."

"I can't tell, he is like a mystery."

...

If Shen Bing heard these words, he would definitely be surprised.

Yang Ting was very accurate, and Shen Bing was not better than Sun Wu.

However, Shen Bing possesses modern strategic and tactical vision, as well as rich knowledge.

These made him shine on the battlefield even less than Sun Wu.

When the master and servant were discussing, suddenly a screaming arrow rushed into the air with a scream.

Yang Ting's face suddenly changed, and said.

"No, Zhao Jun is here!"

"They came so fast."

Shen Bing returned to the artillery after leaving the school lieutenant camp.

He pulled Xun aside as soon as he came back.

"Master, it's time to improve the trebuchet!"

Xun looked at Shen Bing in surprise.

"Improve it?"

"You mean you still have a way to improve the trebuchet?"

Xun secretly frightened.

After the improvement of the trebuchet, the range has been doubled, which can already be regarded as a supernatural workmanship.

As a craftsman, if he had such a work, he would be enough to show off his last life and even his name in history.

This is the glory that Xun and other craftsmen dream of.

But there is still a way to improve this guy?

And it's so easy?

It's like talking about how full you just ate, whether you had a good night's sleep last night.

Heaven, let people live?!

Shen Bing didn't notice the strange expression on Xun's face. While looking at the trebuchet, he answered lightly:

"Of course, there are still many areas that need improvement."

"For example, the axle is too small, you can enlarge it and increase the grip."

"And this cannon tip, if it is thicker and longer, you can throw heavier stone bullets farther!"

"But these are trivial matters. The most important thing now is to improve the counterweight."

"master."

"master?"

...

Shen Bing was stunned to find that Xun Leng was there, like an old monk entering Ding, and called him several times before awakening him.

"Oh" followed.

"I'm fine, I'm fine..."

"You mean, um, improve the counterweight!"

"How can it be improved?"

Shen Bing answered without thinking:

"Of course the counterweight was changed to a one-piece type."

"There are many disadvantages to using a basket with stones as a counterweight."

"The basket is fragile and easy to fall. It can only be filled with stones. It will swing back and forth during launch, which will affect accuracy."

"It's different if it is made into a piece of wooden box and fixed on the gun tip."

"It can even hold sand as a counterweight."

"Sand can be found everywhere, especially during marching, sand can be drained, and sand should be temporarily loaded before the battle."

...

"Master, are you okay?"

"Is it too tired to be busy for days?"

Xun couldn't help coughing, and hardly raised his hand and shook it towards Shen Bing.

Shen Bing stepped forward, stroking his back and patting his chest again, and after a long period of tossing, he was relieved.

"I'm okay, I'm okay!" Xun said breathlessly, "Hey, as a teacher...I'm old!"

At this moment, suddenly a banging arrow went straight to Yunxiao.

Shen Bing couldn't help frowning.

"Is it Zhao Jun?"

"They came so fast!"

"I'm afraid the Qin army has not adjusted its strength yet!"
