Chapter 575 Wooden Kites

  Black gunpowder is extremely powerful in both destructive and lethal power. The army of the Wu Kingdom only needs to use a trebuchet to throw it into the pass, and they can't even resist.

  To delay their siege plan, the first thing to do is to destroy the black powder.

  The black powder will explode when the lead wire is ignited. It is not difficult to destroy it, but it is difficult to find out where the Wu army stored the black powder and…

"For such an important weapon as black gunpowder, the army of Wu State will definitely hide it tightly and send heavy troops to guard it. Even if we know the specific location, we may not be able to get close to it. There are so many black gunpowder piled together, but once the lead is ignited , can the people who went there come back alive?" Liu Jinbao felt that Song Jinghuan must be crazy.

Song Jinghuan didn't answer him, and continued: "The strength of Wu's army is nothing but black powder. Without black powder, they can only use ordinary methods to attack the city. Although our troops are not as many as theirs, we can only defend the city. If so, how can it last for a month."

   It is true that they can recreate the black powder, but it will take a lot of time to achieve what she wants.

   When she said this, there was no fear on her face, but a faint excitement on her face.

   Liu Jinbao's mouth took a long time to close: "You, are you going to do this yourself?"

  Song Jinghuan grinned at him, jumped off the wall and said, "It's time for dinner."

   It's the end of May now, and it will last until July, so it's time for my eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law to come.

  …

  After half a month's journey, Shen Yijia, who was remembered by Song Jinghuan, finally arrived at the periphery of the Three Gorges.

  Song Jingchen put away the map and said, "Let's take a rest and go into the mountain."

   In the past two weeks, they have not heard any news about Nanling Pass.

   There is no news at least that the city has not been broken, otherwise such a big thing will definitely come from the merchants who travel between the two countries of Daxia and Xuanyuan.

   Just like the news that Lin'an City was occupied by the Wu army, after half a month of fermentation, it spread almost all over the Xuanyuan country.

   "Youyi and I are going to get something to eat." Thirty thousand said.

   Mo Yuan accompanied Ji Luo to Fengzhou, and the foraging work was taken over by Sanwan and Youyi.

   Song Jingchen nodded without objection.

   "Xianggong, how long will it take to cross this mountain range?" Shen Yijia took the bag off the horse and poured out a small pile of odd-shaped wooden blocks from it.

The   wood block was polished and carved by Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia during their rest time in half a month.

  Although he participated, in fact, Song Jingchen didn't know the use of these things until now. He thought about it and said, "Around ten days."

   This is a conservative estimate, after all, no one has walked this road.

  According to his previous plan, they could have been here earlier, not wanting to rain for four days in a row, but had no choice but to stop to shelter from the rain.

  The road after the rain is not easy to walk, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth.

   "Oh." Shen Yijia blinked and concentrated on splicing the wooden blocks one by one.

   Only then did Song Jingchen realize that those originally inconspicuous wooden blocks were finally spelled out in the same shape as paper kites, but this one was made of wood, and there were two more gears at the bottom.

   Originally, Song Jingchen just didn't want her to work too hard to help polish her, but now she is a little interested.

   "What is this?" he asked.

  Shen Yijia picked up Mu Yuan and checked it. After confirming that there was no problem, she smiled mysteriously: "If we could fly over, wouldn't it save a lot of time?"

   "Flying?" Song Jingchen was taken aback: "Use this?"

   He admitted that when he suspected that this girl was a fairy, he thought she would fly, but since he knew it was his difference, this unrealistic thought was gone.

   Seeing that he didn't believe it, Shen Yijia picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground and tied it under the wooden kite with a cloth strip.

   Immediately, she pulled the mechanism on the wheel shaft, and the two wooden wings quickly fanned, and the wooden kite slid out of the ground for a distance and flew out with the stone steadily.

   "Look, it's flying." Shen Yijia jumped up from the spot with joy.

  I didn't want her voice to fall, and the wooden kite that flew to the top of the tree fell straight down with a chirp, and instantly fell to pieces.

   The smile on Shen Yijia's face froze: Brother, can you give me some face? If you want to fall, at least fly farther away.

  Song Jingchen said silently: "This..."

   Thirty thousand and Youyi, who came back after fighting the game from the beginning to the end, swallowed their saliva. The young lady (Miss) didn't want to use this to take them to fly, right?

  The eyes of the two fell on the wooden kite fragments, and a coolness rose from the soles of their feet.

   Shen Yijia blushed at the sight of the three of them: "This is just a model. Besides, the stone can't pull the axle, and the wooden wings are not driven by the axle, and the wooden kite will naturally fall..."

   "At least it's flying." She looked at Song Jingchen: "As long as you make two large ones, you can definitely fly over with us."

  Sanwan and Youyi also turned to look at Song Jingchen and shook their heads.

  Master (uncle), do not agree.

  Song Jingchen pursed his lips, walked to the place where the wooden kite fell and squatted down. After careful observation, he found that the broken places were all splices.

   "The road is too rushed, and the interface is not well done." Shen Yijia leaned over and explained.

   In fact, no matter how well the interface is done, once it falls from a height, it will inevitably disconnect...

   But as Shen Yijia said, as long as the wooden wings are kept stirring, there will be no sudden drop.

  The three of them were all waiting for him to make a decision. Song Jingchen calmly reassembled Mu Yuan and said with a smile, "Okay."

   Shen Yijia was immediately happy that the ingenuity she made was recognized by the beauty Xianggong.

   On the other hand, Sanwan and Yuichi are... a little flustered.

  The wooden kite can fly from the ground with a stone. If you want to carry the weight of a person, you must borrow the next one.

  Song Jingchen set his sights on the top of the mountain closest to them, and the materials for making wooden kites could be sourced locally.

   Decided to go up the mountain, a few people havetily filled their stomachs, and got on their horses again.

It took only a stick of incense to enter the forest, and the howls of beasts sounded all around. The horse instinctively sensed danger and became a little restless. Fortunately, Xuanyuan Ziming picked out the good horses from the military camp. Training did not leave the master unwilling to move forward.

   With the presence of Youyi, the poisonous snakes and beasts were solved by him before they approached.

   A few people found a suitable open space on the top of the mountain to stop, and they started to work without taking too much rest.

   Looking for suitable dry wood, grinding, and making joints, it took four people two full days to make a giant wooden kite.

  Comparing the model, Shen Yijia used wild boar skin to add a safety buckle on it, and on the basis of the original axle, he pressed a small axle to assist each other, so that the wooden wings could be stirred up without any force.

   Looking at the wooden kite in front of him, who was bigger than himself, Thirty Wan reached out and touched it. He leaned in to Youyi's ear and lowered his voice and asked, "Can this thing really take us to the sky?"

   In fact, he wants to ask what are the chances of surviving falling from a high altitude?

   Did someone come to collect his body when he died?

   After thinking about it, even if there is an estimate, it will be difficult to find his body, he has not had time to say goodbye to Mo Yuan, uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

  You rolled her eyes, and the fingers under her sleeves trembled slightly.

   Compared to the two who were calm on the surface and panicked on the inside, and the two who were not calm on the surface, Shen Yijia had stars in his eyes.

   The biggest thing she did before was the wheelchair of the beauty husband, which is too fulfilling.

   She stepped forward eagerly: "Xianggong, I'll try it first."

   said that she was going to pull the safety buckle, but Song Jingchen grabbed her hand before it was buckled.

   "I'll go," he said.

   "No, you are not familiar with this thing, so let me go."

   She was actually very confident in what she was doing, but if Song Jingchen was to be the guinea pig, she would be inexplicably worried.

"This is the mechanism for pulling the axle, this is used to change the direction of the wooden wings, and this is used for landing. If the wind is too strong, pull this mechanism to fold some of the wooden wings to reduce the wind surface..." Song Jingchen placed the mechanism on the wooden kite everywhere. Point to the past, and finally ask: "Am I right?"

  Shen Yijia: How could it be wrong, she wanted to kneel for him.

   Sure enough, it was her husband, she just said it once and remembered it all.

But…

   "It still won't work, I made this thing, I have to be the first to fly."

  Song Jingchen sighed: "Jiajia, you have to be obedient."

   "...Everything has to listen to Ah Chen's words." Ji Luo's words suddenly sounded in his mind.

  Shen Yijia:…

   "Then, why don't we go together?" She took a step back.

   In order to save time, two people were left under the wooden kite.

   Of course, a person can also fly.

  Song Jingchen rubbed her head, pulled her aside from Mu Yuan, and told her with actions.

no.

   "Master..." Shen Yijia panicked.

  Song Jingchen leaned down and placed a kiss on her forehead: "I believe in you, and you should believe in me too."

   Shen Yijia was successfully detoured by him. The beauty Xianggong decided to use Mu Yuan because she believed in herself. Similarly, she also believed that the beauty Xianggong let him fly solo. Does that mean that?

  30,000: Master is getting more and more suspicious, and they are still watching.

   Yes, Yuichi.

   He looked at Yuichi.

  I didn't want Youyi to turn into a black shadow in his eyes, only to hear a click, and Mu Yuan swiped out.

   "Youichi!"

   "Youichi!"

  Song Jingchen and Shen Yijia were startled and ran over to block them at the same time, but the incident happened suddenly, Youyi's speed was too fast, their hands could only touch the tip of Mu Yuan's tail, and they almost rolled off the cliff because of inertia.

  I saw Mu Yuan first landed at a very high speed, and then the wooden wings fanned and flew out with You Yi.

  Shen Yijia was so angry that she jumped, but she had no choice but to shout in the direction Youyi flew out: "Youyi, come back to me, do you know how to turn and how to land?"

  You Yi, who let go of his dangling heart because Mu Yuan successfully flew up, was pleasantly surprised: "Miss, don't worry, I'll be right back."

   Then Shen Yijia and the others saw Mu Yuan descending for a while, closing its wings for a while, and flying around in midair with a drunk man.

  Shen Yijia: Just like you, you have nothing to do with me even if you die, let me tell you.

  Song Jingchen:…

  30,000: Brother, you are really brave.

  …

  Nanling Pass, the Wu army attacked the city more and more frequently. In just four days, they launched no less than ten attacks.

   There are traces of black powder blasting everywhere in the pass. The bloodstains visible to the naked eye on the walls and on the ground all indicate that many soldiers have died.
