Under the current situation, the advanced models of ballistae cannot be made by Ruizai, and he is not a professional. He has to wait for Ahong and the others to figure it out bit by bit. However, the Thunderbolt Cart is still easy to make, and it is the most basic manpower.
The principle of leverage.
The carpenters in Mangmanzhiye looked at the Thunderbolt Car with much softer eyes than they looked at the Crossbow.
There's nothing we can do about it, because this thing is easy to make and cheap. Although it's a type of casual attack, it's nothing compared to the difficulty of making a crossbow.
However, the carpenters also knew that if they had not made the bed crossbow first, I am afraid they would not have figured out the structure of such a similar weapon so quickly.
At the same time, when the Thunderbolt Chariot was being made, news of the defeat of Yangdi Mountain also arrived at the southern fortress along with the migration of refugees.
.........
When Yu Zai stood on the fortress and looked at the muddy and lifeless people on the edge of Xiushui, he suddenly realized that they were exactly the same as the Akafang clan who had just arrived in the south.
They lost their hometown and land, and the place where their ancestors watched. Their relatives were killed, their homeland was burned and invaded, their belongings were plundered, and all their cattle and pigs were slaughtered.
What floats over them now is despair.
Wen Ming said to Yuzai: "Huandou said you don't know how to control water. This time Sanmiao is here. The big canals you built and the reservoir that is accumulating... will definitely frighten his jaw."
drop down!"
Wen Ming danced his fists with full confidence.
This time, Yu Zai did not cooperate with Wen Ming and remained silent. Wen Ming looked up and when he saw Yu Zai's serious look, he couldn't help but drop his fist.
"Um."
Ruanzai walked down the fortress, and Wen Ming chased him up the huge stone steps, following Ruanzai to the entrance of the fortress below.
The last batch of construction work is still going on. Before Sanmiao arrives, any form of reinforcement is not too much.
People who fled from the direction of Dongting, people who migrated here, passed by Juzai, and Wen Ming.
"Aweng?"
A child's trembling voice was mixed in the crowd and drifted outward.
The old man paused.
"Eh."
Child's voice:
"When will Father come back?"
Wen Ming paused, and the woman in front also stopped.
There were old people with distracted eyes, staggering past them carrying children on their backs. These people who had fled and migrated were noisy and lifeless.
Busy with confusion about the future, dead with sadness for the past.
"He will be back at the winter solstice next year..."
There was no desire for life in the old man's eyes, but he still walked forward with the child on his back.
Although the child was ignorant, he seemed to already know a lot of things. He asked, but his face was full of fear.
"Next winter solstice, let's settle down and kill dolphins and deer, okay?"
"good."
"Next winter solstice, grandma will come back too."
"Are mother and father coming back together?"
"Um!"
The old man's affirmative tone asked again:
"What are we going to do when we settle down during the winter solstice next year?"
The child pursed his lips:
"Kick the soil."
"Okay, let's hit the ground."
Soil-kicking is a game that Emperor Yao once saw on Shou Mountain where old men were throwing the wooden blocks placed in front of them with earthen garbage, and competing to see who could throw the farthest.
Looking at this scene, Wen Ming was so touched that he even forgot to move forward for a moment, but his mood became very low.
This is how it is in mountains and seas. Humans not only fight with the beasts, but also fight with themselves. Therefore, humans are essentially just civilized beasts.
"Ye Lao!"
Wen Ming ran over. When the old man saw the child, his eyes regained some vitality, but soon turned into sadness again.
"Thank you for taking us in."
The old man thanked him, and Wen Ming assured him: "You will definitely be able to settle down!"
The old man remained silent and said to Wen Ming: "Is there any way out?"
Wen Ming was stunned for a moment, and the old man sighed: "It seems there is no more."
"What, Ye Lao, why don't you believe what I say?"
Wen Ming pointed to the fortress: "This huge fortress named Chongyong is the highest wall in the world. It will definitely be able to stop Sanmiao's progress!"
The old man didn't say anything, but one of the surrounding refugees said: "Yangdi Mountain has collapsed, and the legacy of the ancient emperor has not stopped them. Is it just a high wall and a stone city that is stronger than Yangdi's remaining power?"
?”
"One defeat, two defeats, another defeat... No one can stop them!"
The people around him were in such extremely negative and desperate moods that even seeing this Chongyong Temple still did not restore their courage.
“The deer is in the mountains and wilds, and hunters will follow them!”
Wen Ming heard what Yuzai said. Yuzai had been wandering around the mountains and seas for so long, and he had the inherited memory of the old wizard, some ancient songs, and the words he pieced together, so he could easily tell it.
Deer appeared in the mountains and fields, and hunters went to catch them.
In other words, this sentence can be simply summarized in two words:
"Chasing deer!"
Ruzai patted Wen Ming on the shoulder: "It was the same when we first came to the south. No one would think that moving to a new land would lead to a better life. Leaving the homeland run by our ancestors, the final result was...
Some of them are the result of death.”
"Harada always abandons the old and replaces the new. But with that said, how many tribes will really leave their hometown and go to a completely unfamiliar place to seek a new wilderness? In the end, it is all in
Just wandering around my hometown."
Someone came over and said, "Yes, migration is extremely dangerous, but compared to being slaves, many tribes would rather die in the mountains than stay in their fallen homeland."
"As long as people are alive, there is hope. What we see in the future is a wilderness filled with fruits and food, rather than ruined mountains and swamps and arrogant enemies."
Wu Pan came over, and both Su Zai and Wen Ming saluted him respectfully.
The Ten Witches of Lingshan, a legendary figure and a great doctor who is very good at treating diseases and injuries, are here, which may be the greatest comfort to many people.
Because Wu Xian himself is still alive and working in the Central Plains, most people can basically accept the appearance of other Lingshan Ten Wus after a short period of shock and surprise.
Things like immortal grass will naturally be known to them, but this kind of grass can be encountered but not sought.
........
It was raining lightly, and on the mountain, Witch Master Ji and the others saw the refugees migrating below, and Witch Master Ji followed the Great Witch of Xunshan and the others to come here to see the new, temporarily built reservoir.
This is also what he wants to learn, and it is also what Yu Zai requires. If Ji Liguo really wants to engage in water and soil engineering, then how to build a reservoir is also an aspect that he needs to learn.
Chi Songzi never showed up because the guys from Zhongyuan were always there, but he was indeed responsible for the rain.
Xiushui originates from the south and is actually a diversion of the river. The large water canals not only serve as drains, but also transport water. In the upstream area of Xiushui, a simple dam is blocked to form a temporary barrier lake.
....
Many people have used water attack tactics, such as when a dam is suddenly dug up. This is the trick Han Xin used to defeat the dragon. He built sandbags overnight to block the water veins, and when the people arrived at the predetermined location, they dug out the sandbags.
So when Long Qiejun rushed forward again and reached the low-lying land, the water rushed down like a first love lover.
Bai Qi also attacked with water and drowned tens of thousands of Chu people, while Wang Ben diverted the Yellow River water to rush directly into the beams.
Relying on the power of nature is the most domineering.
In the past, Yuan Zai relied on the treasures of the Tonghong family to wash away ten thousand people with water attacks when fighting against the Diyou family. However, at that time, it was because of the help of the Houtian family, the water flow, wind, rain, air pressure, and various factors.
This kind of frightening background music caused double damage both physically and mentally...
The great wizard climbed to the top of the upper reaches and looked to the west in the distance.
The dust is surging and the fog is hazy, but there are some vicious guys watching!
