Chapter 452: Divine Might, Invincible General Cannon


"The sub-enclosure system is a regression" "The history of the thorn is not advisable at all" "Look at the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms and the rebellion of the Eight Kings, the sub-feudal system will not play the role of the central part of the screen domain at all, but only the source of chaos" A group of imperial historians were cleaned up by Du Yan and Sun Fujia and did not dare to impeach Li Chao, so they all came to spray Li Shimin's Shifeng assassination history and clan separation, and sprayed this matter worthless.

Li Chao actually agrees with these words very much, and it is indeed a step backwards to engage in sub-sealing.

But he won't object, because he is the nobleman who has been crowned by the world.

Where the ass is, there is the head.

Although Li Chao also felt that the privileges of the gates, families, and nobles were too great, and the serious erosion affected the Tang Empire, which was weakening this giant.

But since you are a member of this privileged class, it is completely different.

Li Chao has to consider the problem from the perspective of his own interests first.

If Datang is compared to a company, Li Chao is of course more willing to be a shareholder of the company, not just an employee.

Now Datang's gate valves, families, aristocratic and wealthy families are almost Datang's large and small shareholders, not just simple employees.

Li Shimin wants to treat Datang as his Li family's family business and sole proprietorship.

Li Chao and those aristocrats are all partners on the road to entrepreneurship of Li Tang Company, or they were acquired or acquired at the beginning, and they still have some shares in their hands, who wants the company to give up their shares when it becomes big and popular, no one is so stupid.

The nobles were resolutely unwilling to give up the special level they had obtained, the land and population they occupied.

Now Li Shimin has real titles, high seals, hereditary titles, etc., in exchange for the Lord Yongye Tian and the sealed household that everyone originally owned in the Central Plains, and everyone reluctantly agreed.

No matter what kind of world seal and sub-seal Li Shimin gave him, whether it is a flower head or not, whether he is a cake or not, how can he also be a cake.

Even if it is a big cake in the air, the nobles have to protect their own rights and interests.

For example, Li Chao took out the Eight Bull Crossbow and Boulder Cannon so hard, and it was also to be able to defeat Liang Shidu as soon as possible, and even recapture the Hetao.

After recovering the Hetao, Li Chao's Fengzhou will come back, and he will be able to become a real history of the world's feudal assassins.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, Gao Shilian, Yu Wenshihe, and Yang Gongren did not object, because like Li Chao, they were also members of the Shifeng Assassination History.

Besides, they are the history of the world's feudal assassins, and they don't have to leave Chang'an to take office in Fengzhou, they are still their own high-ranking officials in Chang'an.

And for the imperial court, those Shifeng states are still territories outside the frontier, even if they are recovered later, in fact, the thirty-six feudal states are not much, and it is not harmful to let the nobles go to the border states to open up the real border, it is better than letting these nobles squeeze into Guanzhong, Henan and other narrow towns to compete with the people for land.

As for the division of the clan, this has to be opposed.

At least it has to be the same as the history of the World Seal Thorn, which can only be sealed on the frontier, and the fiefdom of each king is still very small.

Li Chao felt that he had found the goal of struggle, in Chang'an, no matter how hard he worked, he had to beware of the high power and the main bird hiding his bow or something.

But if you can turn this world history into a prince of the Tang Dynasty, it will really be worth fighting for a lifetime.

Regardless of whether he is on the frontier or not, how cool it is to have his own small vassal state.

Li Shimin's current history of the assassination is not considered to be the lord of the earth, it can only be said to be the same as Zhu Yuanzhang's military attache hereditary, just a hereditary official position of assassination.

Anyway, in this place, Lao Tzu will be the assassin, and his son will follow.

Fengzhou is not a fiefdom of the history of the world, nor can it have a private army or private government officials.

But work hard, fight hard.

At least the hereditary assassin history can not only be hereditary, but the position can also be hereditary, the hereditary military attache of the Ming Dynasty, and later the officers of the guard have become large and small landlords.

And Li Chao is not satisfied with just the position of the assassin of the world, he wants to directly make a fief.

It doesn't need to be sealed in the Central Plains, and it doesn't even matter what wild land it is, what Taiwan Hainan Island, what Mobei Grassland and Western Regions or Yunnan, no problem.

If there is a fief, a thousand-year-old family can be built.

The craftsmen of the Ordnance Supervision are very powerful, or the drawings given by Li Chao are too detailed, all kinds of data, the craftsmen have never seen such design drawings.

They followed the drawings, built it directly, and found that it went smoothly and there were no problems.

After several test shots, they got the performance data, and found that it was about the same as the performance parameters given on the drawings, and the eyes of a group of craftsmen were red with excitement.

In the past, when they researched and designed a weapon, they had to go through various repeated modifications and improvements, and no weapon could achieve the goal so easily.

Li Shimin was busy and came to visit the official trial.

There is a special experimental field in the ordnance prison, with a special rammed earth wall and a city gate tower.

It is completely a one-to-one replica of the city wall, and the scale of the materials is the same.

"I've heard that the previous trial was very effective."

Li Shimin said to Li Chao very excitedly, but when he saw Li Xiuning next to him, he couldn't help but feel the urge to kick Li Chao to death.

The weapons supervisor had a very large hand, and directly got ten eight-ox crossbows.

For them, the Ten Eight Ox Crossbows are very simple, there are ready-made bed crossbows, and all kinds of materials are actually ready-made, but they are just modified and manufactured according to Li Chao's drawings.

The twelve-stone bow, two positive and one negative organized, with a pulley ratchet in series, so that the bed crossbow that originally needed to be opened by eight oxen now only needs two people to twist, the pulley group, so that the twisting is more labor-saving, and the ratchet, so that two soldiers can easily twist a grid.

A ballbow gun with an egg thick and more than a person long was loaded, and when the winding was completed, an order was given, and the flag was waved.

Ten crossbowmen struck down with wooden hammers, and ten crossbow guns whistled and shot at the city wall a hundred paces away.

The ballista was driven into the rammed earth wall, and it was pierced very deeply.

The ten crossbows over there didn't stop, and they quickly began to reload and then continue firing.

After a while, Li Shimin's mouth opened wide, and he saw that on that city wall, ten rows of crossbow ladders appeared.

The ballista guns were nailed to the wall, forming a row of crossbow ladders from bottom to top, which was almost like a ladder, and the soldiers could climb directly along these crossbow guns to the top of the city, without worrying about being pushed away by the push rods on the top of the city.

If you have enough ballistas, you can even nail a wall with ballistas.

General Weiyuan, who was equipped with seven iron crossbow arrows, although the range was shorter, but seven arrows at a time, ten eight-ox crossbows fired continuously, and after a while, a piece of puppets placed a hundred steps away was all destroyed.

Even if it is placed three hundred steps away, it has great lethality.

Five hundred steps, just as effective.

A thousand steps, if the opponent is dense and there are many ballistas, it is also effective.

When the Shenwei general cannon, which weighed two thousand catties, was pulled up, Li Shimin surrounded the general and marveled.

Twenty catties of stone bullets, the same through the pulley group and ratchet group, as long as two people can press down the two kilograms of counterweight arm, a hammer down, the hook opens, the two kilograms of counterweight arm bounces up violently, and the other end of the twenty pounds of stone bullets is thrown into the sky.

The 38-degree angle of the projectile, instead of the 45-degree angle, is the best angle of fire that has been tested by later generations, and this angle is the farthest.

When the stone bullet fell in the distance, Li Shimin took the telescope and watched it seriously, so far away.

The Armament Warden's men ran to measure the distance, and then galloped back.

"Four hundred and thirteen steps" "It can really reach 400 steps" Li Shimin was speechless in shock, and personally rode over to watch, the 20-pound stone bullet was not only thrown 400 steps away, but also smashed a big crater on the ground.

"Smash the city gate tower" Li Shimin excitedly pointed to the city gate tower on the city wall used for the test.

Pushing Shenwei's cannon to a distance of three hundred paces, he threw five cannons in a row, and finally hit it once, and a corner of the city gate tower was directly smashed.

When ten boulder cannons were pushed to a distance of two hundred paces and fired a salvo, the gate tower was gone in an instant.

"Militaristic Weapon" "No wonder you are so confident that you can break the spirit martial arts, with such a sharp weapon, it is indeed not difficult to capture the spirit martial arts.

But these guys are quite big, and it's not easy to transport.

Li Shimin stroked these big guys and exclaimed.

"Your Majesty, in fact, it is not difficult to let the ordnance supervisor make key components according to unified standards, and then transport them to the front line with the army, and then bring a group of craftsmen to the front line, build the rest of the non-core parts on the spot, and then assemble them in a unified manner."

There is no need to say that you have to build hundreds or thousands of eight-bull crossbows and boulder cannons in Chang'an, and then transport them to Lingwu with great difficulty, there is no need for that.

The key components, such as the oil tanker group, the ratchet group, such as the bow on the eight-ox crossbow, etc., were made in advance, and then transported over.

Other ballista bed frames, stone cannon bases, counterweights, counterweight arms, etc., these can be made from local materials, built temporarily, and then assembled.

"Third sister, you have to go to Lingwu" Li Shimin turned his head to look at Li Xiuning and asked helplessly.

"It's too boring in Beijing."

Li Xiuning replied.

Li Shimin looked at Li Xiuning, and then at Li Chao, with a helpless expression, can't you two pay attention to it, you have to be like this Can't you save some face for Chai Shao "Wenyuan, I have already sent an embassy to the Western Regions to contact the Western Turkic Tongyehu Khan, preparing to form an alliance with him and use him to contain the Xiajieli Khan."

Since the Sui Dynasty, the Turks have long ceased to be one.

When the Eastern and Western Turks reached the head of the Khan at the end of the Sui Dynasty, they had the opportunity to be unified, but in the end they were still divided by internal strife.

Later, during the time of Shibi Khan, he unified the Eastern 9 Turks and was powerful.

But the Western Turks in the west were also united under the leadership of the Khan of Sheku.

A few years ago, he was succeeded by the Tongye Hu Khan, and his strength increased greatly.

The Western Turks have always had a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty, the commander is brave and strategic, good at attacking and fighting, the north and Tiele, the west rejects Persia, controls hundreds of thousands, dominates the Western Regions, is the strongest period of the Western Turks, and the strength is not weaker than the Jieli Khan of the Eastern Turks.

Tong Yehu has been bullying the Sassanid Dynasty of Persia in recent years, invading Persia again and again, the strategic focus is in the west, and for the Central Plains, it is a friendly strategy.

Li Shimin planned to send a delegation to the Western Turks this time, to send the princess to make peace with Tong Yehu, and the two families formed an alliance, preparing to use the Western Turks to contain the Eastern Turks.

Li Chao also has ideas about the Western Turks' control of the countries in the Western Regions.

But right now, pulling the Western Turks to fight the Eastern Turks is a good idea, and at least it can contain one or two.

Although the Eastern and Western Turks are both Turkic people, in fact, the two sides have been fighting to the death for decades, and the dog's brain doesn't know how much to fight, and the relationship is really bad and can't be worse.

Datang went to stir up trouble, send a princess to Xu some benefits, propose to engage in some international trade on the Silk Road or something, everyone will work together to curb the more and more arrogant Eastern Turks, and the Western Turks are definitely very happy.

S: Brothers, there has been no big explosion in the past few days, at most only six more, no seven, eight, nine or even a dozen, don't blame me, the main thing is that I met a beautiful girl in Longwu 2, and I was called to play on WeChat every day, so I didn't have the heart to code words.

Maybe you can get it, what are the brothers hesitating, go to the sea oath area and form a landlord army with me, don't wait here, there are girls inside. t1706231537:
