Daqin Engineers

Chapter 66-Stool

Since Yang Duanhe and Wang Jian do not need to fight for merit, they are not eager to attack Handan.

Qin Jun only built the walled city with Zhao Jun outside the city to prepare for a long-term siege.

At this time, Yang Duanhe transported a few trebuchets and flint bombs to Wang Jian...

There is no need to hide the trebuchet, especially when the two have reached a consensus.

It is said that Nalu Gong disassembled one of the trebuchets into parts immediately.

In fact, there is no need to disassemble, the structure of this trebuchet is very simple to understand at a glance.

It's just that Lu Gong was cautious and didn't want to miss any details, so he did so.

Then, Lu Gong spent a whole day in front of the trebuchet, not thinking about eating or drinking.

After finishing, he sighed:

"This is not superb."

"It's a smart production!"

This can be said to hit the nail on the head.

Can Shen Bing work in woodworking?

In fact, Shen Bing knows nothing.

Modern mechanical design is all about CADCAM or the like, as well as material mechanics. How can anyone have done carpentry work?

So as Lu Gong said, it has nothing to do with skills, but very clever creativity.

But what is important is not skills, but creativity.

There is no shortage of skilled artillery among the artillery. Cang is one of them...

Although this guy is as timid as a mouse, but the craftsmanship is really well-known.

For example, now, Shen Bing beckoned to Cang, and Cang ran over.

"Brother, what's your order?"

Shen Bing took a branch and drew on the ground and said:

"You go to do such a thing."

"The two long frames are staggered, and the middle is connected by a copper shaft, and the upper end is fastened with hemp rope and a layer of hemp cloth."

...

This is actually a simple folding stool.

Shen Bing couldn't stand this age without chairs, and "kneeled" on the ground at every turn.

Not to mention this knee pain, the feet will lose consciousness after a long time.

Cang looked dumbfounded at the picture.

"Brother, what is the use of this thing?"

Shen Bing responded impatiently:

"Just do it."

Cang responded and went to do it.

Although Cang had ten craftsmen under Cang, Shen Bing confessed that he still made it by himself.

The structure of this folding stool is very simple, and it is done in a few strokes, and then Cang took it in front of Shen Bing with a look of confusion:

"Brother, please see, is it the same as what you said?"

"If there is a deviation, I will correct it."

Shen Bing didn't speak, he took it and opened it, and as soon as he put it on the ground, he sat down.

Cang's eyes widened and stared blankly for a long time, and then turned around a few times beside Shen Bing.

Exclaimed:

"Miao, brother, this thing is really wonderful!"

"From now on, there will be no need to look for rocks or stakes to rest."

"Senior Brother, can you... let Junior Brother try?"

Shen Bing stood up unwillingly.

Cang just said "Thank you, brother" and couldn't wait to sit on it.

This sitting was another moment:

"Wonderful, the height is suitable for soft and hard."

"It's much easier to use than those stones and stakes."

"And when you open it, you can put it away and carry it with you..."

"It's amazing, it's amazing!"

When Cang said that, other craftsmen also gathered around one after another. Try it and let me try.

Then everyone learns how to do it...

They are craftsmen, and almost all tools and materials are readily available, so they can do it very quickly.

In a short while, there was a handful of hands, and each of them liked to try and open and close.

Shen Bing liked to watch them look like they had never seen the world.

What Shen Bing did not expect was that this folding stool quickly swept the whole army soon...

Qin Shi's "kneeling" etiquette is more suitable for indoors, if it is outdoors and ordinary people do not like it.

So this simple folding stool is very suitable for troops who are marching outside the war most of the time.

After the artillery produced a batch, it was passed on to other carpenters. Soldiers were tempted to ask for it.

Then Yang Duanhe felt strange when he came to inspect the troops.

The soldiers who originally sat around or squatted to eat, are now sitting on a "linen shelf" at ease.

Yang Duanhe couldn't help but asked, "What is this?"

The soldier replied:

"Return to General, this is something made by the engineer for rest."

"The engineer called it a stool."

"Can the general try?"

When he said that, a soldier brought it up.

Yang Duan and "hum" ignored them.

Qin Shi's way of sitting with his feet open and facing each other was regarded as disrespectful to each other, and it was also a savage and rude performance.

How could he Yang Duanhe be familiar with these barbarians?

If it weren't made by Shen Bing, I'm afraid Yang Duanhe would have ordered people to pile all these things called "stools" together and burn them clean.

Then Yang Duanhe discovered that this "stool" was springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain, and it was everywhere before he knew it.

Yang Duanhe, who had returned to Shuaiying, still kneeled down in front of the case, pouring his wine while disapproving:

"It's no wonder that this vulgar person has been a villager all his life."

"If you don't understand basic etiquette, what's the difference with that beast?"

"It's like me..."

"Wearing such a heavy armor and still sitting here on my knees."

"Not to mention that I am so old, and I still have injuries on this leg."

"Is this easy for me?"

...

Thinking about Yang Duanhe couldn't help but gasp.

"Oh, no. The injury on this leg is aching again!"

"This……"

After thinking about it, Yang Duanhe shouted outside the door: "Come on!"

Immediately two guards came in and answered.

Yang Duanhe hesitated and asked:

"Wait...If you stand outside the door for a long time, your legs will numb?"

The guard replied:

"Back to the general, where the subordinates are responsible, I dare not take it lightly."

Yang Duanhe frowned and asked:

"If you wait to return to camp, what can you use?"

The two guards looked dumbfounded, looked at each other, and replied:

"General, my subordinates don't know..."

After all, Yang Duanhe lost his patience:

"That's the stool, can you have a stool?"

"Go and get two for the old man."

"Remember, don't let outsiders know!"

The guards responded in unison, and they were strange when they left the camp:

But with two stools, why did the general make such a big turn?

Why not let outsiders know?

Is there any secret to the stool made by the engineer?

However, how dare the two guards ask more, and each took their own stools.

I was about to go out, thinking about it, and looking back for a piece of brown clothes wrapped tightly and then sent to the handsome account.

Yang Duanhe seemed to be very satisfied with the practice of the personal guards. He nodded and said:

"Just put it down, you can go out later!"

Then added another sentence:

"Don't let others in."

The guards answered, waiting outside with a puzzled face.

Yang Duanhe looked outside, and only placed a stool in front of the case after making sure it was safe, and then sat up.

"Ouch... that's so sour!"

"Sure enough it's a good thing."

"This leg doesn't hurt or cramps anymore..."
