Chapter 337 Rewards for meritorious deeds, a big breakthrough
Unlike other generals, Lin Chong did not rush home after shooting wild geese in the afternoon, but went straight to the back mountain.
Over at the craftsman's workshop, Liu Heizi was already waiting.
Not only that, beside Liu Heizi stood Huang An.
Lin Chong stepped forward quickly, and the two of them clasped their fists and saluted. Lin Chong looked Huang An up and down and said: "Now, you are in charge of the equipment department and the Baikuang Yamen. There is a lot of pressure on your shoulders! You have to take care of your body. There are too many things to do in the future.
If you have a lot of food, you have to eat it one bite at a time, and you have to do important things in the same way."
Huang An looked happy and said: "My subordinates are very grateful for the attention of the great master. Without the care of the great master, the Huang family would have been accused by the court long ago. I am afraid that the three clans will be implicated and there will be very few left. For Liangshan's plan, for the sake of
For family planning, it is appropriate for Huang to do this."
Lin Chong nodded and said: "I have been down the mountain for more than a month. How are the development of the siege equipment going?"
This siege object is the design of the return artillery that Lin Chong delivered to Huang An. This object is a sharp weapon. Once the city is captured in the future, if this object exists, the siege will be greatly convenient and it can also reduce casualties.
This is the top priority this time.
Huang An said: "Fortunately, I have lived up to my mission. Ten days ago, I built the first experimental product. After debugging it several times, I found some problems. I built another one yesterday. Today, the master is returning south. Why don't we go and have a look together."
"Okay, since we have a test today, let's go together to see its power." Lin Chong said with a smile.
Huang An clasped his fists and said, "I'll go and prepare first. My brother will wait for a while before entering the valley."
Lin Chong nodded, watched Huang An leave, and then entered the stone workshop without looking back.
The two of them walked through the house and went straight to the inner hall. As soon as Lin Chong sat down, Liu Heizi knelt on the ground, clasped his fists and said: "Grandpa, since you have been away for a month, the Internal Security Department has been supervising everything in order and has written a memorial."
, please ask grandpa to take a look!"
The Internal Security Department is built secretly, and is headed by Liu Heizi, who is responsible for supervision and information gathering. His functions are similar to those of the Jinyiwei, but without the privileges of the Jinyiwei who can take advantage of the situation.
Lin Chong opened the memorial and read it: "On July 3rd, Chao Gai and the three men of the Ruan family had a drink and dinner to discuss the construction of a new ship.
Liu Tang went on inspection and returned home, where he became drunk.
Gongsun Sheng didn't leave the house for three days, as if he was practicing Taoism.
Zhu Gui did not eat for one day and did not return until he was too busy.
.....”
Lin Chong frowned and said: "Of course this kind of information must be sorted out for my inquiry. Normally there is no need to be so detailed. There are many commanders on the mountain at the moment, and you have to pay attention to the investigation inside and outside. You must not use your past thoughts."
Liu Heizi clasped his fists and said, "I will make adjustments again. No traitors have been found so far, but there is something that I need to report to Grandpa alone!"
"Just say it, don't worry."
"On the first night when grandpa went down the mountain to rescue brother Wu Song, King Chao Gai and Pavilion Master Wu Yong held candles and talked all night until the early morning of the second day before leaving."
"Then why did you say it today?" Lin Chong asked.
Liu Heizi said awkwardly: "At that time, I wanted to find out what they said, but later I found that there was no change. The younger one has been watching the movements of King Chao Tian. Now that grandpa returns to the mountain, he dares to tell the matter."
Lin Chong nodded and said, "Well done! How is Cui's health?"
Liu Heizi chuckled and said: "I can eat and drink. Grandpa feels sorry for me and didn't let me go down the mountain this time. But I want to do big things together with Grandpa."
"Although Mrs. Cui is a widow, she has never had a child in the past, so you should not neglect her. After this descendant of the Liu family is born, I will name your baby." Lin Chong said calmly.
Liu Heizi was overjoyed and said excitedly: "On behalf of the unborn cub, I would like to thank Grandpa for your kindness!"
Lin Chong asked again: "Are you ready for the things I asked you to prepare for me?"
"Everything is ready. I specially found high-quality craftsmen to make the kind of steel pipe you mentioned. It's just that the inside has to be hollowed out, which takes a lot of effort. I have to use grinding and special rotation, which is quite labor-intensive. In the end,
Whether Grandpa's request can be met or not, I still need to see if Grandpa can check it." Liu Heizi scratched his head and said.
Liu Heizi's greatest advantage was that he would try his best to do what Lin Chong told him, never talk much or ask too many questions, and just worship Lin Chong like a god in heaven!
Whatever grandpa wants to do, he treats it as the best thing in the world.
"Okay! Well done Heizi. After two days, I will take care of all the big and small things in the mountain, and you can come over and give me a hand."
When Liu Heizi saw that Lin Chong was in a good mood, he also giggled and said, "Grandpa, it's almost time. Let's go into the valley first."
Lin Chong nodded, and the two of them entered the valley directly. They saw a huge trebuchet at the entrance of the valley, already fixed in place.
Lin Chong approached and asked Huang An: "How was the mining effect of the gunpowder I gave you last time?"
Huang An nodded repeatedly and said: "The effect my brother gave me is quite good, but I think if it can be improved, the effect may be even better."
Lin Chong smiled and said: "Improvements are what you have to consider."
Liu Heizi on the side touched the trebuchet and said: "This thing is too big. If we had attacked Yuncheng before, we would have had this thing and we could easily defeat them!"
Huang An said: "Brother Lin Chong, let's see how powerful it is."
Lin Chong said: "Just come!"
Huang An immediately shouted to the sergeant over there: "Get ready, it's time to start!"
When the sergeants over there saw the big bosses coming, they all worked hard and built a stone wall in the distance of the valley.
The sergeants pulled the tied rope suddenly, and heard the "buzzing" sound of the swing car!
The stones in the pocket at the back roared and hit the stone wall in the distance!
"Boom!"
In an instant, most of the city wall in the distance collapsed on the spot!
The smoke and dust are everywhere, and it is very powerful.
The scene was very majestic. The city walls collapsed and rubble rolled down. Even though they were far apart, it was a huge oppression.
Liu Heizi was stunned and said: "It's too scary! One trebuchet is so powerful. If there were twenty-three of them, Qingzhou City would collapse."
Huang An also had a look of joy on his face: "This thing is a masterpiece. From now on, attacking the city will be unfavorable."
Lin Chong was very satisfied and said with an expression: "With this thing in the future, all the strong cities in the world will be useless!"
This Huang An is really a talent, he actually built this thing. After a few days, after the system is established in the mountain, he can first capture Yuncheng, and then extend it hundreds of miles outward, sweeping across the surrounding officers and soldiers, and how many more
Are people rivals in Liangshan?
Thinking of this, Lin Chong was extremely arrogant. If he had artillery weapons, when the army from the north came to attack, he would be able to blast them with one blast!
"Hahahahahahaha! It's so cool! Just thinking about it makes me feel so good!" Lin Chong laughed several times, turned around and said, "The Equipment Institute has done a great job this time. Brother Huang An, do you think this person has done a great job?"
, list it in detail, I want to reward you based on your merits!"
