Vol 2 Chapter 6:

Let Tang Yingan wait. Xia Jie's expression was extremely unnatural. Tang Yin felt awkward when he looked at his embarrassment. He just made an excuse and sent him away.
Tang Yin waited more than half an hour in Xia Yufu's outer room, and the latter walked out of the inner room with a lazy expression. Tang Yin looked at Xia Yufu, didn't speak, Xuan Wang hurried forward and said, "Miss Yufu!" His grade was higher than Xia Yufu, but he was very kind to her. Of course, Xia Yufu is also much higher than Xuanwang in terms of knowledge of organ mechanics.
Xia Yufu just nodded his head slightly, be regarded as saying hello, then turned his eyes, looked at Tang Yin, and asked curiously, "Why is the King so busy today, come to Qiaoshan Villa in person?"
Tang Yin smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. I came here to visit Miss Yufu."
"Hehe!" Xia Yufule said, "Is the King going to see what has been explained to me?"
In the battle with the Sichuan Army, Tang Yin felt the power and effectiveness of large-scale siege weapons. After the class division returned to the capital, he immediately instructed the Ordnance Division to develop large-scale equipment similar to those used by the Sichuan Army. Xuan Wang is the head of the Ordnance Division, and Xia Yufu is also responsible for supervising the Ordnance Division. It is naturally Xia Yufu's job to develop large-scale siege equipment.
Tang Yin didn't say anything, she smiled on her back and said, "Half and half."
Xia Yufu didn't mind. He turned around and asked Xuanwang, "Master, what's the problem this time?"
Xuan Wang hurriedly took out the drawing and handed it to Xia Yufu, saying, "Miss Yufu, I have marked the red circle with a puzzling, of which ..."
Before he finished speaking, Xia Yufu took the drawing directly, looked down, shook his head and sighed, and muttered in a low voice: "I clearly understand what I have drawn!" Then, she put the table The sundries in the case shuffled to one side, and then put the drawing on it, explaining it to Xuanwang in detail.
Xuan Wang listened carefully and focused, for fear of missing some details, Tang Yin also listened for a while, but soon felt lack of interest, yawned, and walked away.
Xia Yufu and Xuan Wang talked one by one, and you came to me. It took another half an hour to come to an end.
After finally waiting for Xuan Wang to understand all the problems, Tang Yin finally found the opportunity to interject. He asked: "What is being developed by the Ordnance Division now?"
"Go back to the king, it's the tower!" Xuan Wang's question was now cleared, and the whole person looked much more relaxed, and answered first.
"Oh?" Tang Yin fingered the drawing and asked, "This is the drawing you made for the tower?"
"Yes, King!"
Tang Yin stepped forward again and looked down at the drawing. If it wasn't for Xuan Wang's saying that this was the drawing of the tower, looking at the pattern above, Tang Yin couldn't see it at all. He shook his head and said, "Looking at the shape, this is not like a tower!"
Xia Yufu rolled his eyes and sat at the table, drinking tea himself, seemingly lazy to answer such questions.
Xuanwang explained: "Huihui King, this is not a complete picture of the tower, but a part of it, mainly a diagram of the tower's moving system."
"Ah!" Tang Yin didn't understand the mechanics. He scratched his hair and laughed: "No wonder it doesn't look like a tower."
Xuanwang said: "Miss Yufu's mobile system is really ingenious. No cow horses or people need to push it. Just pull the rope behind the tower and the tower will move forward. The tower designed by Miss Yufu is not only big, The weight is also heavy. If you rely on manpower to push each tower, you need at least a hundred people to push it, and it takes only twenty people to pull it with a rope. This can greatly save manpower and reduce our losses when pushing. "
Hearing this, Tang Yin became interested. He also sat at the table and raised his head: "More details."
Xuan Wang also wanted to elaborate, but Tang Yin was a layman, and it was too laborious to explain without drawings. He asked Xia Yufu: "Miss Yufu should still have a full picture of the tower?"
Xia Yufu shook his head absently at the bookcase while drinking tea, and said, "Go find it yourself."
Xuan Wang was accustomed to Xia Yufu's seemingly arrogant attitude and didn't care. He walked to the bookshelf in the corner, turned around and found out the overall drawing of the tower, spread it in front of Tang Yin, and explained it with pointers.
The tower designed by Xia Yufu is much larger than the Sichuan Army tower. The front arrow board is made of hard wood such as elm and oak. What is different is that the arrow board is inlaid with many circles. Shaped rivets, such as small shields on the same side, are put together, these rivets can play a role in protecting the arrow shields, but not too much to increase the weight of the tower.
Also worth mentioning is the power system of the tower, which is also the most complicated part of the tower. The power system of the tower is composed of many gears. Two thick and long ropes extend behind the tower. When moving the tower, you only need to arrange soldiers to pull the rope to make the internal gears rotate, and the tower can move forward. This can greatly save manpower and allow the army to reduce unnecessary casualties while advancing.
After Xuan Wang finished all the explanations, Tang Yin pondered for a while and nodded again and praised: "Okay! This tower is well designed." This can be regarded as the first semi-mechanized thing Tang Yin saw in this era.
It is not easy to get Tang Yin's admiration. Although the tower was not designed by Xuanwang, he also participated and was honored. Xia Yufu was very indifferent, at least on the surface. She said indifferently: If there are more craftsmen, I can design more sophisticated towers and build them in batches. "
Tang Yin smiled upwards and waved his hand and said, "Enough, enough, so that it is enough to deal with the enemy." Now he has a lot of confidence in Xia Yufu's design, and he is more interested in its design. He asked: " Any other designs? "
"Of course, there are also cloud cars, red cars ..." Xia Yufu's praise of Tang Yin was very indifferent on the surface. In fact, she was still very useful in her heart. When Tang Yin asked her, she uttered a rare stream of words.
Time flies, Tang Yin and Xuan Wang unknowingly have been sitting in Qiqiao Villa for more than half a day, and when the sky is getting dark outside, Tang Yin gets up to leave.
Gently rejected Xia Jie's retention feast, Tang Yin did not spend Xia Yufu, and Xuan Wang and others went back to the city.
On the way back to the city, Tang Yin and Xuan Wang sat in the same car. He asked, "Xuan Wang, what do you think of Xia Yufu?"
Xuanwang didn't quite understand what Tang Yin meant, Zhikushu doubted: "I don't know what the king asked?"
Tang Yin said: "Loyalty to Gale."
Xuan Wang's complexion was not a trivial matter. If he said something wrong, Xia Yufu might be killed. He said positively, "How good is Miss Yufu's loyalty to my gale, Weichen doesn't know, but Miss Yufu is doing her best to do things for me, and Weichen can see it."
After listening, Tang Yin squinted her eyes for a moment, then smiled on her back and said, "I just ask it casually. You don't have to be too serious, and you don't have to mention it to Miss Yufu."
"Yes, yes, yes! Weichen understands." Xuan Wang nodded again and again.
Tang Yin also said: "The siege weapon is related to the success or failure of the war. The life and death of our generals must be carefully guarded. As the director of the Ordnance Division, you must ensure that the equipment developed does not have any omissions and problems.
Xuan Wang responded: "Wei Chen remembers the teachings of the King."
Tang Yin was happy, nodded at Xuanwang, and said nothing more.
When Tang Yin and his party came down the mountain, it was already dark, and Tang Yin sat in the carriage and chatted with Xuanwang without a word.
As she was walking, Tang Yin with unusually acute eyes and ears suddenly heard the sound of wind from outside the car.
Experienced Tang Yin can tell that it is not the night wind, but the strong wind that flies sharply and cuts through the sky.
Too late to think about it, Tang Yin screamed in a bad voice, slamming her face down, even carrying it, and pressing down the vision next to her.
Xuan Wang was not alert at this time, and hadn't reacted yet. People had fallen on the board. He exclaimed, "Big ..."
He hadn't spoken yet. He only heard a crackle. Ten arrows penetrated the car panel at the same time and shot into the car. The powerful force made the arrow stick into the car panel on the other side.
Xuanwang was frightened and exclaimed: "Protect the king, there are assassins ..."
When he finished speaking, Tang Yin had disappeared and people rushed out along the window.
Just outside, Tang Yin hadn't had time to see the surrounding environment clearly, and she flew over to shoot ten eagle owls.
He also responded quickly, lying down and lying down on the ground, whine, all ten arrows flew over his head.
At this time, Shangguan Yuanwu rushed to Tang Yin and said hurriedly, "Master, the assassin puts an arrow in the forest!"
Tang Yin lifted her eyes and saw that it was clear that the roadside was a dense forest, and Leng Jian shot from the forest.
He snorted, and between the shaking of his shoulders, the double knives had appeared in his palm. Tang Yin was about to poke into the forest to take out the assassin ~ EbookFREE.me ~ With the vibration of the branches, ten shots from the forest first Black shadow.
The ten were all armed with a black spirit armor, holding a sword, fast speed, like lightning, two of them rushed to Tang Yin immediately, without a word, lifted the knife and chopped.
As soon as the experts reached out, they knew whether or not, just by looking at the speed of the opponent's knife, Tang Yin knew the other person's unusual person.
He did not dare to carelessly. He drew a double-knife fight, and when the ear wheel heard two crunches, when Tang Yin caught the other's double-knife, he was shocked half a step back.
Tang Yin's knife speed can be so fast, his strength is also very amazing, in the case of head-to-head, he will be shocked, which is still rare. Tang Yin was surprised, the other was even more surprised. The two glanced at each other, spread apart to the left and right, and attacked Tang Yin from two directions.
The knife paths of these two people are quick to see, one knife after another, and the knife and knife are all at the heart of Tang Yin. Tang Yin has never been afraid of dealing with others. He squinted his eyes and fought with two assassins.
He fought two assassins alone, and the brothers Shangguan and Asan were also entangled by eight other assassins. At this time, another person came out of the woods. The target of this person was not Tang Yin, but went straight to the carriage.
