Chapter 328 Make my father get drunk and invent something again?
Chapter 328
Yang Ning sipped her tea and complained angrily in a low voice. Anyway, it was just the two of them who were loyal servants.
As his father sighed, Yang Qian also realized the current predicament of his father, Yang Ning.
There is very bad news that this Minister Li is Yuwenshu's party member. I believe that Yuwenshu knows about this and will be happy to add insult to injury.
Yang Guang, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, who preferred obedience to disobedience, now had his greatest wish to lead the Sui Dynasty's millions of tiger soldiers to go to the north to cause trouble.
Kill that Goguryeo who dared to ignore his summons.
Therefore, even if there were rebels in Shandong and Hebei, there were obviously so many elite troops stationed in Zhuojun, but they did not move and left the Shandong and Hebei counties to suppress the bandits on their own.
He just didn't want to delay his plan to conquer Goguryeo. If the work of the Ministry of Industry presided over by his biological father really hindered Yang Guang.
Tsk, tsk, tsk... Yang Qian believed that the emperor of the Sui Dynasty who initiated Biao's coming would definitely disown his relatives.
What to do? Or what to do, is the best choice. Of course, if Yang Guang suddenly becomes kind-hearted and transfers his own father from the Ministry of Industry to other functional departments.
Then when the time comes, the Ministry of Industry will not be able to meet the needs of the Northern Expedition to Goguryeo, and naturally there will be no need for my biological father to shoulder the responsibility.
It's just this wish, just a wish.
It seems that this is the only way to use it... Yang Qian's attention subconsciously fell on the structural diagram of the trebuchet that made him almost fall into the water in Qinghe County.
How about letting my father, Yang Ning, invent something again while he was drunk? Then he continued to take out the drawings that he had secretly drawn.
Let my father take the blame again...
No, no, no, it doesn't seem good. Doing the same thing twice won't work. It might expose the fact that chess was not invented by my father.
However, Yang Qian saw his father's dejected look. If he continued, he would take out a heavy-duty trebuchet, which was the most powerful and widely applicable siege weapon before the advent of firearms.
As a biological son, I cannot let my biological father feel that the waves from behind in the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, so he can beat his own father to death every day... Ahem, he should beat the waves in front of him to death on the beach every day.
It seems to be too damaging to my father’s self-esteem, alas...

"Qian'er, why are you looking at your husband like this? Your eyes are so strange. What's wrong with you as a father?"
Yang Ning was holding the tea soup and felt uncomfortable when she saw the strange and thoughtful look in her own son's eyes.
"My child, I am concerned about your health and worry that you, father, are too tired." Yang Qian rolled his eyes and his expression once again changed to that of a humble and respectful son.
"Father, please take a good rest today. My son will not be on duty tomorrow, so why not go to the Craftsman Camp with your father?"
"What are you doing there? It's a mess, there's nothing to see." Yang Ning waved her hand.
It's a good thing for a son to care about his father's official duties, but Yang Ning doesn't think there will be any benefit to his son's death.
"It's okay. The child is idle anyway. Please remember to call the child to go with him when his father leaves the house tomorrow."
Yang Qian insisted, but Yang Ning could not refuse his son's kindness, so he had to agree, use it, and rest early after dinner.
After all, she stayed up late last night and Yang Ning was really exhausted.
Yang Qian returned to his room and carefully studied the drawings that he had drawn.
In the early morning, Yang Ning, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry and Engineering, who had had a good sleep, was fully dressed and was about to go out when he saw a young man with green hair standing outside the hall door.
"When I saw my father, I almost thought I wouldn't be able to catch up with him." The green young man was none other than Yang Qian.
Yang Qian, who was now honored as the Seventh Rank Zuo Lang, put on the official green uniform according to the official uniforms of the Sui Dynasty.
Fortunately, the hat was black. Otherwise, Yang Qian felt that he would either give up his civilian job and switch to a military job. Or he would just flatter Yang Guang and get promoted quickly to avoid the scene of wearing a cuckold to show off.
"You really want to go. I thought you would be so tired on duty, so I wouldn't call you."
Yang Ning said somewhat helplessly. "In that case, let's go together."
"Thank you father, father, be careful..." Yang Qian followed his father out of the house with a smile, and headed towards the Ministry of Industry camp near the river outside Zhuojun City.
About ten miles west of Zhuo County, along the river, you can see dense camps and billowing smoke. Naturally, the sounds caused by the work of various blacksmiths and carpenters are also indispensable.
"Fortunately, there is a bellows, which saves a lot of manpower and reduces fuel consumption. This thing is really good news for our craftsmen in Sui Dynasty."
"There are 20,000 craftsmen gathered here this time. Originally, there should be 3,000 more, but because of the chaos in Shandong, alas..."
Riding on horseback side by side with his father, surrounded by a group of guards, he walked slowly and looked around curiously.
After walking out of Yuelishu, we came to an open area, where weapons of different shapes were densely and orderly arranged, making Yang Qian dazzled.
Seeing that Yang Qian was very interested in these things and asking questions, Yang Ning simply got off his horse and led Yang Qian over, introducing them one by one.
There are lookout cars, also called nest cars, that stand three to four feet high and are specially used to reconnaissance and observe the enemy's situation, and can even observe the situation of the enemy's city.
There is also a large nest car that is ten feet high, but it is not called by this name, but is called a cloud car. Once the cloud car is standing, when the line of sight is good, it can completely see the enemy's troop movements in the city.
In addition to this kind of reconnaissance ordnance that amazed Yang Qian, there were more ordnance that made Yang Qian blind.
There are siege vehicles equipped with wooden boards for cover, called wooden curtains. There are also siege vehicles that can cover the soldiers approaching the city wall to attack, but they cannot directly destroy the city wall.
Of course, there are also indispensable weapons such as rams, which are specially used to destroy city walls and gates, and famous ancient siege equipment such as ladders.
There is also a kind of ordnance that makes Yang Qian stunned. This kind of thing that seems to appear only in later generations actually exists now?
Seeing Yang Qian standing in front of the trench bridge with a stunned look on his face, Yang Ning couldn't help but laugh. "This thing is the trench bridge."
"Also known as Feijiang or Flying Bridge, it is recorded in "Six Towers, Tiger Towers, and Military Use". It was a short bridge used by ancient people to attack cities in order to pass obstacles such as ditches or moats outside the city.
There are wheels below, which makes it easy to move under the moat and across the river."
"In fact, there are many good siege weapons, such as Lu Gong's chariot, but they are actually too big and difficult to move. Zhuojun is still far away from Liaodong. Therefore, they were not made."
Yang Qian nodded suddenly, turned his eyes, passed over the ballista cart next to him, and landed on the ordnance placed on a wooden stand like an enlarged wooden spoon.
"Trebuchet?" Yang Qian suppressed his inner excitement and walked up to the ordnance in three steps and two steps at a time, his eyes shining brightly.
