Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 250 Music and Dance

Taixue, workshop.

The wooden cow and the horse were made, which was a big deal. Lu Yu was having dinner with Sister Zhaoji originally.

Hearing the news, he put down the bowls and chopsticks, and rushed to the workshop immediately.

At this moment, the workshop is already full of people...

Countless teachers and students gathered around here, witnessing the brand-new "wooden cow" and "flowing horse"!
Zhuge Jun and Cao Ang were not idle either. They simulated various situations, such as going up a steep slope, going down a steep slope, wading through water, and mires!
He even deliberately prepared some ice to test the behavior of the wooden cow and horse on the ice.

Of course, in their view...

Chief Lu Yu is simply a genius, and many points that need attention have been written in the book "How to Make Wooden Cows and Horses".

And many unremarkable designs make the "wooden ox and flowing horse" extremely stable no matter what terrain or situation they are in.

To know…

The bottoms of the wooden ox and the flowing horse are wheels, and the arc surface...so they are not afraid of slippery ground.

The wheels are even equipped with braking devices, as long as you move the tongue of the cow or the tongue of the horse

...the wheels seem to be gripping the ground so tightly that they cannot move, similar to...a handbrake on a 21st century car.

In order to test, Huang Xu specially found a steep slope, hovered the wooden ox and the flowing horse on the steep slope, and stood still for half an hour.

And when you move the tongue again, the wheel can continue to turn.

A group of students and teachers kept shouting in amazement, none of them knew why it was so easy to push this wooden bull and horse.

This is the so-called "crank-connecting-rod theory"!
The flywheel is driven by gears.

After the flywheel is running, the inertia of the flywheel is used to assist the wooden cow, so that it is extremely easy to push.

at first…

Everyone was still in the mood to watch the excitement, and there was an uproar of discussion everywhere, but... following one test after another, everyone fell silent.

Especially the other 55 Tai students, they seemed to have discovered an incredible thing.

That is... Cao Ang, "Zhuge Liang", Huang Xu, Dianman, Xu Yi who have been learning the art of carpentry for less than a month...

They... these five honest kids made it.

You know, these days...

Not to mention such a complicated craft as wooden oxen and horses, even making trolleys requires craftsmen with more than ten years of working experience to try to complete it under the leadership of skilled masters.

While it takes [-] to [-] processes to build a car, it takes more than [-] to [-] processes to make this wooden cow and horse!

The most difficult thing is the various brakes, various gears...

And these most complicated problems were all overcome by Zhuge Jun. He seemed to be born with an extremely sensitive sense of smell for this carpenter, as if he was born with it.

certainly…

In addition to these complicated brakes, gears...every detail is not easy.

It must be strictly in accordance with the length, width, precision, flatness, firmness, and smoothness stipulated in the "Law of Making Wooden Cows and Horses", and every part must not be sloppy.

And this... was accomplished through repeated failures and attempts by Zhuge Jun, Huang Xu, Cao Ang, Xu Yi, and Dianman.

This is the heaven pays off!
When Lu Yu arrived...

Not directly forward, but in the distance.

Others are watching, but he is observing carefully, observing every test of Mu Niu Liuma.

The more he saw the end, the more gratified Lu Yu was, and the gratification was extraordinary.

According to Lu Yu's estimation, what's going on... This wooden cow and horse can be completed in three to four months, which is not bad. Who would have thought that it would be successfully built in just one month.

really…

The wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated. They may be much smarter and tougher than modern people.

Lu Yu is still feeling emotional here.

never thought...

"Lu Si Nong, this time...you have done a great job again!"

A voice came from behind Lu Yu.

what…

Lu Yu was startled, isn't that the voice?
He hurriedly turned around, but the one who caught his eyes was not Xun Yu from Shangshutai, who else could Xun You be?
what's going on…

Xun Lingjun and Gongda military division came to Taixue, didn't they say hello?

"I met two Mr. Xun."

Lu Yu saluted immediately...

Xun Yu and Xun You returned a salute, and Xun Yu was the first to speak: "Let me just say it. If you have any difficulties, you can always find a solution to Lu Sinong. Lu Sinong is a blessed general of our court."

"Yes..." Xun You nodded repeatedly. "Unexpectedly, what made our Shangshutai, the imperial court, and Cao Sikong helpless can be solved so easily by Lu Sinong's side. Xun really admires, admires!"

ah... ah...

What Xun Yu and Xun You said made Lu Yu a little confused?
what's going on?
Lu Yu wondered what he did?It seems that in this passage, apart from wandering around in Taixue... he didn't do anything?

Can we not put any credit on my head, I am under a lot of pressure, okay?

"Two Mr. Xun? Is this swollen?" Lu Yu asked back...

"Lu Sinong doesn't know yet?" Xun Yu was startled.

I know a hammer... Lu Yu scratched his head, confused.

Oh…

Xun Yu just came back to his senses, but... it is understandable, after all, the urgent report from the front line came only [-] miles away this morning.

Lu Si Nong probably didn't know about the food shortage situation in Shouchun City.

but…

According to Xun Yu's thinking, Lu Si Nong can figure it out, and it wouldn't be surprising if he did it, but... Seeing how confused he is, he seems to know nothing.

"That's it..." Xun You took the lead in explaining. "Great victory in Shouchun City...Yuan Shu's fifth army rebelled, the main general Zhang Xun has been captured by our army, and now Cao Sikong has led an army of 15 to surround Shouchun City."

Isn't this... nice?

Lu Yu muttered in his heart, but for a while, he still didn't react.

Xun You's words continued. "It's just that there was a little accident..."

"What accident?" Lu Yu asked urgently...

"Delivery of grain." Xun You said truthfully: "Now the land of Shouchun is in the rainy season, and grain roads are blocked by silt, shallow water, and landslides. It is almost impossible to deliver grain to the front line."

hiss…

Lu Yu thought of something. Sure enough, as he expected, the continuous rain near Shouchun was a disastrous blow to Cao Jun.

Not only food roads, but even... the siege will definitely be hindered everywhere.

If you can't attack for a long time, it will be the situation of Shouchun City today.

So and so, the most sensible way to play...

Instead...

Lu Yu's eyes narrowed, and a word appeared in his mind - consumption!
That's right, it's exhausting, Lao Cao doesn't have much food, but Shouchun City is surrounded by groups, and there is not much food in their city.

Whichever side can't stand it first, whichever side collapses first, the other side will be able to secure the victory, it depends on who can consume whom to death!
In this situation, if Lao Cao can solve the problem of grain and grass transportation... then it is almost a sure thing.

and many more…

Lu Yu came to his senses all of a sudden, no wonder Xun Yu said that he had made a great contribution.

It turned out to be...

Thinking of this, Lu Yu turned his eyes away and looked in the direction of the "wooden cow and horse" not far away. This is what Xun Yu was referring to.

in fact.

It was an accident for Lu Yu to make a wooden cow and a horse in one month.

But... for the current situation, there is no time.

"Xun Lingjun wants to use this wooden ox and horse?"

Lu Yu spoke directly.

"That's right!" Xun Yu nodded immediately, "I've been here for more than an hour, and in the distance, I've been observing the tests one by one! Whether it's shallows, mud, ice... or even steep slopes, this Wooden oxen and horses can complete the task of transporting food, but..."

Speaking of this, Xun Yu paused for a moment, and there was a touch of melancholy between his brows.

"Time, the only thing I worry about is time!" Xun Yu said: "The letterhead I received this morning was sent by Cao Sikong five days ago, and the food and grass for Cao's army on the front line is only enough to last for 30 days!"

"Even if it's... starting today to make large-scale wooden cows and horses, it will take at least ten days to produce a sufficient number, and it will take at least twenty days to transport them to Chen Country. From this point of view... There is not enough time!"

call…

Xun Yu breathed out, "In 30 days, if there is no food, Cao Sikong will run out of food... The situation on the front line will also become precarious."

The battlefield is like this, changing rapidly.

One moment, maybe you still have the upper hand, you are a hunter, the next moment... you will become Lei Wu, and you may die on the spot!
As it was related to the situation on the front line, Xun Yu had to carefully consider it.

This…

Lu Yu rolled his eyes, it was indeed a problem, he was only thinking about letting Tai students try to build this "wooden cow and horse", but he didn't care about large-scale production!

If large-scale production is really required, it will take a lot of time to recruit carpenters, prepare wood, and run it together.

The time Xun Yu said was not conservative...

Lu Yu curled his lips, it seemed that there was nothing he could do to help.

Of course, even if his wooden cow and horse can't help, Lao Cao will have a way, but... a lot of people will die.

If we follow the original trajectory of history...

When Lao Cao was conquering Yuan Shu, he encountered a shortage of food.

He will order the food officer to distribute the rations with small dendrobium, and drag the food for the last three days to the tenth day.

On the last day, the grain officer was beheaded. The famous sentence "Your wife, I will raise her" came from here.

Cao Cao admitted frankly to the soldiers that there was no food in the army, and today was the last meal!
After this meal, attack the city with all your strength, and if you fail, you will have no way out.

In this way, a group of brave soldiers were forced out to break through the city of Shouchun at a heavy price.

This is already the most extreme output of Lao Cao, who "a clever woman can't cook without rice".

As for how heavy the price is...

6... In this battle, Cao Jun died [-] people.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu felt quite uncomfortable. Obviously...give him another month to avoid the loss of 6 people, but...

"Ah!" He sighed helplessly, people are in troubled times, many times, they can't help themselves!
at this time…

"wrong!"

"The timing is just right!"

A voice came out, and it was none other than Xun You, who had always been taciturn.

Well…

As soon as these words came out, both Lu Yu and Xun Yu looked at him in unison.

Xun You explained in detail: "It is indeed just right, but... some changes need to be made in the steps."

"For example, we don't need to collect wood, recruit carpenters, and manufacture 'Wooden Cows and Horses' in Xudu. We can place the production site in Chen State, which is closer to the front line, which shortens the time for transporting 'Wooden Cows and Flowing Horses' and saves It's been down for at least ten days!"

understood…

As soon as these words came out, both Lu Yu and Xun Yu understood.

Too nervous to ignore this section.

They didn't need to transport the finished wooden cows and horses at all, but they only needed to transport the five people who could make wooden cows and horses, that is, Zhuge Jun, Huang Xu, Cao Ang, Dianman, and Xu Yi, to Chen Guo.

Before Lu Yu could finish thinking about it all...

Xun You's words continued.

"It takes about five days to transport five people to Chen State, but it only takes two days for Feige to send letters to Chen State. The remaining three days are enough for Chen State to recruit local carpenters and prepare enough wood! "

"And when these Tai students arrive in Chen State, they don't need to make a large number of wooden cows and horses in more than [-] days. They only need to complete a small part of the manufacturing..."

"Using the method of transporting in batches, a batch of wooden oxen and horses are produced, and a batch of grain is transported. As long as the first batch of transport can transport the ten-day army grain, there will be a steady stream of food in the future, and so on. Undoubtedly, Chuncheng's hopes have greatly increased!"

This…

What a wonderful and meticulous analysis, this is a thorough grasp of the time.

Lu Yu couldn't help blinking his eyes a few times, and in the end...the eyeballs must be.

Wonderful, really wonderful!
It can be seen from this point that the wisdom of the ancients...is not more than Lu Yu, it is far more than Lu Yu.

"Mr. Gongda is a great talent!" Lu Yu cupped his hands.

Although, he knew early on that this usually taciturn military adviser has enormous energy...

But when he really articulated these words and used the time difference to solve the transportation problem, wouldn't the problem of food and grass on the front line be easily solved?

"Gongda, this plan is very clever!" Xun Yu said loudly... "Then, without further ado, I will immediately arrange for the pigeons to deliver the letter, and immediately prepare the carriage to escort the five imperial students to the front line."

"Let Long Xiao Battalion escort it!" Lu Yu said with a smile, "Recently, I heard that Cheng Sima, Dian Dutong, and General Huang have made great achievements. The soldiers of Long Xiao Battalion are eager to try!"

actually…

It's not that the soldiers are eager to try.

It was Cao Xiu, the deputy commander of the Longxiao Battalion, who was eager to try, even impatient.

People Cheng Yu, Dian Wei, Huang Zhong...

Even Cao Anmin of the same generation has made great contributions, how can he hold back!
Can't wait to grow wings and fly to the front line.

Speaking of this, Lu Yu, Xun Yu, and Xun You looked at the excited Cao Ang and Zhuge Jun at the same time...

Now they probably don't know what a great thing they have accomplished, how many lives they have saved, and what kind of situation they have saved.

only…

Now there is no time to praise, I have to go immediately!
Lu Yu thought about bringing a big red flower to each of them when he returned triumphantly.

...

In Shouchun City, the palace hall.

Yuan Shu, who was dressed in black attire of the emperor of the Zhong family, was slumping lazily on the dragon chair, holding the Jade Seal of the Kingdom in his hand, stroking every inch of the stone wall, just like touching the skin of a beautiful woman.

Every time Yuan Shu sees the eight characters "Ordered by Heaven, long life and eternal prosperity", Yuan Shu seems to fall into a special state...

Fluttering, like a dream, like a cloud!
On the "Dragon Case" in front of him, there are bowls and chopsticks made of gold, tea cups, wine bottles...

In the main hall, You Zi had many "cool" beauties dancing.

The whole is extravagant and dissolute, with a sense of extravagance...

What is even more exaggerated is that there are hundreds of people in his harem in a small Shouchun City, and every concubine is not allowed to wear too many clothes, but every piece of clothing is tailor-made by Yuan Shu, which is extremely luxurious .

The most exaggerated thing is that Yuan Shu inherited Emperor Hanling's taste in clothes, and all women in the palace would open their crotch pants!

I know everything!

Correspondingly, the soldiers in his army were already in a state of hunger and cold, the people under his rule were in dire straits, many places were completely uninhabited, and there was even a phenomenon of cannibalism during the famine.

Of course…

Don't look at Yuan Shu's vision of "the world of the great man is in my hands."

In fact, he panicked inside.

Ever since he proclaimed himself emperor, he has never been so flustered as he is now... Speaking of which, he also tried his best to conquer the Chen country, using this as a basis to crusade against the Han court, and truly become the emperor of the Central Plains.

It even mobilized the Seventh Route Army to attack Xiapi City, and assembled the Sixth Route Army to besiege and kill Cao Jun...

Can be…

After a few battles, there are victories, but they are all others.

However, in a few months, there were more than 20 soldiers and horses, and there were only more than 3 soldiers left.

On the other hand, Cao Cao, fighting with him... the more he fights, the more soldiers he fights, the more he fights, the more his soldiers seem to have the ability to reproduce... endlessly, endlessly!
Yuan Shu feels...

It was as if he had been cursed, as long as he was his enemy, anyone would be the God of War!

In fact... at this moment, Yuan Shu has already collapsed in his heart.

Fortunately, it coincides with the rainy season... Fortunately, the city wall of Shouchun is high enough!

Fortunately, he also has a general Ji Ling who can fight tough battles, and a mastermind Yang Hong who can offer a strategy to defeat the enemy.

"Hey..."

Suddenly, Yuan Shu figured it out, how boring it is to fight and kill!

Proclaiming the emperor is for enjoyment, not for suffering...

After figuring this out, he seemed to have opened the door to a whole new world.

It suddenly became clear...

He wants to grasp every day of his life and enjoy himself in time. When he is an emperor for a day, he will enjoy the life of an emperor for a day, just like "being a monk and hitting the clock for a day!"

He began to pursue the ultimate quality of life and the enjoyment of life.

Even, there was nothing to make him angry.

In this way, the palace of Yuyu Qionglou suddenly became so happy!

"Your Majesty..." Yang Hong walked from among the dancers to Yuan Shu.

After all, he, a Confucian scholar with good concentration, is also blushing at this moment because of seeing all those white flowers!

Be good, King Zhou's wine pool and meat forest are nothing more than this, right?
"President of the country, didn't I say that, if there is something wrong, you can handle it yourself... Isn't Cao Cao about to run out of food? I don't plan to chase him, let him go back! For the sake of classmate friendship , I let him live."

As soon as this statement comes out…

Yang Hong is about to cry, whoever lets him live, why is His Majesty still living in a dream before he understands the situation?

"Your Majesty, something has happened. One good thing, one bad thing... one is about the grain of our Shouchun City, and the other is about the grain of Cao Cao. Your majesty wants... which one do you want to hear?"

This is out of the way...

All the dancers didn't dare to dance anymore, and retreated to the sides one after another.

And Yuan Shu frowned all of a sudden.

"Don't stop, keep playing the music and dance!" After ordering, Yuan Shu frowned and told Yang Hong: "Minister Guo, you step back, I won't listen to these two things!"

The eunuch on the side took advantage of the situation and reminded. "Your Majesty, according to your instructions, the harem has selected more than 30 concubines. They are all waiting for your majesty to come down to 'drink the rain and dew'! I don't know your majesty..."

Ha ha…

All of a sudden, Yuan Shu was happy. "Quick, take me there!"

Watching Yuan Shu turn around.

Yang Hong couldn't bear it anymore, he shouted: "Your Majesty, Cao Cao's food is only three days away, and... and our Shouchun City's food is gone, all gone!"

As soon as this statement comes out…

Yuan Shu paused, "What are you talking about? I... the two months' food that I had stored in Shouchun is gone? How could it be... all gone!"

...
