Chapter 998
The capital city in April is not very hot, the sky is blue, the sun is shining, willows are filled with smoke, and the wind is gentle, which is a rare good weather.
Time is undoubtedly a good medicine for treating trauma. It has been half a year since I took the siege last year. The small town of Cuzhi in western Beijing has returned to its former prosperity. There are many shops on the street and pedestrians. The official roads entering Beijing are coming and going... No, it should be said that the car is coming and going, yes, it is just the car is coming and going.
At this time, a group of pigs came to the direction of the capital. To be precise, a group of officers and soldiers rushed over with a group of fat pigs. They drove into the small town of Cuzhi along the official road.
The number of these second brothers is a bit huge, probably hundreds of them, one by one, one with fat and round belly, with his head raised and his chest raised, and he was very arrogant. Across a dozen feet apart, the strong smell of urine came to his nose, and vendors and pedestrians on the street covered their noses to avoid it, and they were in a mess.
The officers and soldiers in charge of driving the pigs were hoarse and rushed to restrain the pigs. When the arrogant generals of pigs completely passed through the town, the streets were already in a mess, and the streets were filled with stenched pig shit and pig urine.
All the guests ran away, and the shopkeepers and the shops in the town were so angry that they swear to the point of cursing. However, this was useless except for venting dissatisfaction. In the end, they had to pinch their noses and clean the streets by themselves.
"Grandma, it's so unethical. At least it's locked up in a pig cage. It's really a sin to pull pig shit and urine everywhere!"
"Hey, I just saw those officers and soldiers driving the pigs into the camp of Shenji Camp. It turned out to be pigs from Shenji Camp."
"You boy is right? Didn't the Shenji Camp go to sea with Marquis Jinghai to storm? There are not a few people left in the camp. Why do you want so many pigs? Could it be changed to a pig farm?"
"Well, this is not impossible. Pork has become expensive recently and I can't afford it."
"No, even if the Shenji Camp camp is changed to a pig farm, it should raise piglets. I didn't see that those pigs were all fat. In my opinion, it was probably that the Marquis of Jinghai was about to return triumphantly. The court stationed some fat pigs to reward the three armies."
These shopkeepers were cleaning the street in front of their shops while surfing the purpose of these fat pigs.
At this time, hundreds of fat pigs were driven into the prepared pig pen in the Shenji Camp camp, and the howling sounded loudly, which was not ordinary lively.
There was an open area in front of the pig pen. Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houcong dressed in a scholarly manner, holding a gold-patterned fan in his hand, following He Zhier step by step, with a "flattering" smile on his face, and was a happy dog licking.
After the Chinese New Year, He Zhier was obviously fuller. At this moment, she wore a baseball cap. Her pink face was red, her eyebrows were delicate, her eyes were pretty, her mouth was bright red, and her body curves became more and more obvious, and her whole body was interpreting the beauty of a young girl.
He Zhier was wearing a wear-resistant linen craftsman's uniform, and a large pocket was sewn on her belly, which was specially used to hold measurement tools. When she was fine, she liked to put her hands in the big pocket, which looked a bit cute. Zhu Houxiang liked He Zhier's appearance in her pocket.
At this time, He Zhier put her hands in her pockets and patrolled her back and forth, while guiding her craftsmen to arrange her new invention.
He Zhier's new invention is a bit scary. It looks like a carpet, but it is an iron "carpet" covered with sharp barbs. If this person stepped on it, his feet would probably be ruined. The barbs on it are not fun to pierce into the flesh and blood. It is basically impossible to pull it out. If it is forced to pull it out, a large piece of meat will rot. If it hooks the bones, it will feel terrifying just thinking about it.
Zhu Houyan looked at the dense barbs on the "carpet" and felt his scalp numb and his back felt cold. He Zhier looked meticulous and stretched out her feet to try to step on the spike.
Zhu Houcan was shocked and hurriedly grabbed He Zhi and said, "Sister Zhier, be careful, these iron thorns are very sharp and have been injured."
"Brother Sipao, what are you doing?" He Zhier broke away from Zhu Houcan's hand and quickly stepped on the spikes of the iron carpet. As a result, the spikes actually drooped forward magically, without hurting He Zhier's foot at all.
It turns out that these spikes are designed very cleverly, with a slightly curved crescent shape, so when they are standing up, they are not vertical, but slightly tilted forward. As long as they step along the side of the inclined surface, the spikes will fall down very gently and will not hurt people at all. However, if they step on the opposite direction, the outcome will be completely opposite, and the bottom of the footboard will be pierced by sharp spikes.
He Zhier stepped along the sharp inclined surface a few more times, and glanced at the stunned Emperor Jiajing with pride, and grimaced and said, "You are smart. If you make something yourself, don't you know the danger?"
Jiajing touched his nose awkwardly, imitating He Zhier's appearance, and stretched out his feet and stepped on the spikes. The spikes really fell forward gently. As soon as he loosened his feet, the spikes would pop up automatically, just like a beast showing its sharp teeth.
After understanding the principle, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Sister Zhier, this tripping nail is really clever and clever. In this way, if the enemy's cavalry rushed past, they would be stabbed, but our cavalry would be safe and sound when attacking. Haha, I really don't know how Xu Qing... Cough brother-in-law's head grows, what kind of mines and grenades, this tripping nail is even more amazing. It's simply a killing weapon against the Tartar cavalry. Brother-in-law is too sinister and despicable!"
He Zhier's pretty face suddenly fell down and she pouted, "Don't say bad things about my brother!"
Zhu Houcong quickly smiled and said, "I mean my brother-in-law is so amazing. My fantasy ideas are endless, which makes people amazing. Of course, Sister Zhier is even more powerful. She can put all her brother-in-law's fantasy ideas into reality. She is simply a master... no, she is simply a master's work!"
He Zhier then turned anger into joy and hummed, "You talk too much, it is still unknown whether it is practical or not."
Zhu Houcan pointed at hundreds of big fat pigs in the pig pen and smiled proudly: "It doesn't matter whether it works, you'll try it out."
The tripping horse nail made by He Zhier is about three meters long and two meters wide. It can be rolled up and is very convenient to carry. When used, just spread it flat on the ground. When it is ready, a layer of camouflage will be laid on it in actual combat, so that the enemy cavalry will not notice it.
Soon, the craftsman who had started to set up the six-rolled scoops, and the rows of dense spikes flashed in the sun with a terrifying light.
On the other side, the officers and soldiers were already waiting in the pig pen. They tied hay to the tail of each fat pig and drizzled it with tinder oil.
"Release the pig!" Zhu Houguan gave a majestic order. The officers and soldiers immediately opened the pig pen and lit the hay on the pig tail. Hundreds of second brothers suddenly howled and escaped from the pig pen, and rushed towards the tripping horse nail array like crazy.
The result is conceivable. The fire pig array broke into the nail array, and suddenly it was blood flowing into a river. The fat pigs running in the front were the worst. They fell on the nail array first, and then were trampled by the companions behind them, and their bodies were sobbed by spikes that they died on the spot.
However, there are a few second brothers who are very strong and actually turn over the whole row of tripod horses and drag them to run. Even the pigs can turn over the whole row of tripod horses, let alone the more powerful horses?
