Previously, in order to avoid the anger of Dong Shou, the 75th year of Emperor Yitian, around Yuanchun, in the 75th year of Emperor Yitian, Chen Hai temporarily closed down the military shops in Tieqiao Lane at the same time. At the same time, he also asked Shen Kun, Ge Tong, Zhou Jingyuan, Ding Shuang and others to stay at Juquanling to practice and build the foundation of Juquanling, and not to come to the capital easily.

After Dong Shou, the Duke of Mu of Qin, led the Hexi troops to the east, the people and affairs in the capital of Hexi were returned to Dong Pan's responsibility, and the atmosphere full of gunpowder was slightly relaxed.

It was also mid-March that Ding Shuang, Ge Tong, Shen Xiu and others led more than 30 guards from Juquanling to Yanjing to meet Chen Hai.

In addition to bringing Chen Hai's Xuanlang Battle Chariot, six-edged hook sickle spear, Xuanfei bow and armor-breaking arrows that were left by Chen Hai in Juquanling to Yanjing, Ding Shuang and Ge Tong and others to Yanjing, they also brought several new trial-made primary mechanism beasts and a new batch of gold-tempered armors.

Although Chen Hai worked hard to build a more complete production system in Juquanling and strived to be self-sufficient in some basic resources and materials, top-level refining resources, such as Xuanzhi Iron, Redzhi Copper and other heavenly treasures, as well as many people's practices and tens of thousands of hungry prisoners, need to be used to improve their bodies, and a large number of elixirs that strengthen muscles and bones need to be introduced from the outside.

And this is by no means a small number.

This requires Juquanling to have the ability to transport excellent armor and equipment to the outside on a large scale in order to maintain a balance between incoming and outgoing.

Although Juquanling continued to undertake the military and equipment construction affairs of Tongbei Okura at this time, as the main force of the Xiyuan Army was transferred to Qintong Mountain, Tongbei Okura's status was quickly marginalized, and the business volume that Juquanling could undertake from Tongbei Okura was sharply reduced, and it shrank less than one-tenth of its peak after the New Year.

The Jingying Army's larger-scale procurement of military armor and combat equipment has been separated from the Taiwei Mansion and transferred to the General Manager of the Xiyuan Army, the Suwei Army, the Huben Army and the Jingzhao Mansion Guard Office to jointly implement it.

Even though the military armor shop in Tieqiao Lane was open for business again and was in chaos at this time, as the most sophisticated gold-grade military armor among the Iron Arms, there was no need to worry about selling it, but the largest purchaser of the primary organ beast was the Jingying Army.

Primary mechanical beasts are expensive to build, but they cannot be used to charge on the battlefield. The main purpose is the transportation of bulk materials.

Since the 70th year of Emperor Yitian, wars have occurred frequently in the county governments around the capital. Not only are the large number of cattle, horses, mules and donkeys among the people being plundered and slaughtered, but the official pastures have also been severely hit. At this time, we can only give priority to ensuring that the cavalry camps of the army have sufficient mounts. If we want to restore farming, we are extremely short of animal power, let alone satisfy the transportation of goods.

Even the lowest-level mechanical beasts are expensive and have a lot of damage to use. The cost of a primary mechanical beast is comparable to a high-quality green cunning horse. However, even artificially tamed, it is extremely difficult to reproduce. Later domestication takes several years or even decades. However, it is much easier to build a primary mechanical beast in the casting field controlled by the clan clans.

Therefore, in the short term, the military can only use a large number of wooden cows to supplement their transportation capacity.

Although the cost of mechanical beasts is high and the loss is high, in the mountainous Heyang County, Yanmen County and Jiyang County, ordinary mule, horse, camel beasts are far inferior to those of mechanical wooden beasts when they cross mountains and rugged ridges.

Chen Hai was in Mojia and knew all the needs of the military clearly.

As long as the war does not stop, the Suwei Army, the Hu Ben Army and the Xiyuan Army need to replenish at least tens of thousands of mechanical wooden oxen every year to barely meet the transfer of food, grass and materials for 500,000 elite troops.

If the war continues to escalate, the scale of troops gathered in the west of the capital continues to expand, and the migrant army realizes the importance of encirclement and strife of the Hu Ben army, the number of wooden oxen that needs new supplements will continue to increase significantly every year.

Although this kind of elementary mechanical puppet beast is very inconspicuous, the absolute quantity determines the absolute profit. At this time, Juquanling can get a piece of the pie from here, and with the resources that Juquanling itself can generate, feeding 50,000 or 60,000 people will not become a problem, and can continue to develop and expand.

At the same time, Juquanling also needs to enter the situation of mass manufacturing mechanism puppets in order to gradually improve the management and manufacturing level of the casting site to a higher level, and to mass-produce more complex and powerful magical combat vehicles.

***************************

Although Mo Jia Department is responsible for bidding and technical supervision of the puppets in the organs, the casting yards that previously supplied various puppets in the Beijing Camp Army were all behind the casting yards. Now, they suddenly wanted to add a new family to come in. Zhao Sihan, the chief of the Mo Jia Department, dared not make any decisions, so Chen Hai could only go directly to Chen Xuanzhen, who was in charge of the general and was in charge of the prison.

Chen Xuanzhen did not refuse, and notified Mo Jiasi to prepare for some tests for several mechanical beasts sent to Juquanling.

Wars occur frequently, and the consumption of the mechanical wooden cows has increased several times compared to the past. In the past, more than a dozen casting sites, craftsmen and craftsmen have been squeezed to the extreme, so the quality of the mechanical wooden cows sent here in recent months is uneven, and the loss ratio has also soared significantly.

The Xiyuan Army did not leave Wusheng Pass, and the situation was better. Bo Xunqiu, the head of Prince Yan Dan, who specialized in food, fodder and supplies, did not dare to run back to Yanjing City, but the impeachment memorial was sent over like snowflakes, accusing the generals of deliberately dragging the tiger army back.

In the four-year battle between the emperor and the prince, Chen Xuanzhen firmly stood on the side of the emperor, helping the King of Ying win behind the scenes, and Wen Boyuan came up with advice, but he fundamentally maintained the stability of the Great Yan Emperor Dynasty. At this time, he did not expect the Hu Ben Army to suffer a great defeat due to the chaos in logistics supply, so he had long thought of replacing the two foundry sites that were in trouble.

Now that Chen Hai has come to the door, when the agreed day comes, Chen Xuanzhen invites the Xiyuan Army to handle the baggage, food and salary, Tu Chongzheng, the commander of the Sanqi Duke, to go to the test site of the Mojiasi to see what advantages the several mechanical wooden cows sent from Juquanling have.

On the Mojia Si side, except for the Si Cheng Zhao Sihan, the master craftsmen from the clan and the young craftsmen were full of opinions about Chen Xuanzhen and Chen Hai.

In fact, dozens of casting yards that previously supplied various mechanisms and beasts to Mojiasi were all related to the clans where these great craftsmen and young craftsmen were located. At this time, they guessed that Chen Xuanzhen would probably open a side of Juquanling and seize food from their clans, and could not change this, so they were even more reluctant to come over to join in the fun.

However, the five young craftsmen from poor families were willing to come out to help. In addition to wanting to see what is outstanding about Juquanling, Chen Xuanzhen also took good care of disciples from the cold family in the academy. These five people had consulted Chen Xuanzhen about the learning of puppets in the early years.

Juquanling also successfully tried to produce a chariot that could be used for actual combat at this time, but Chen Hai would not rush to take it over, but the several chariots he took out had also undergone major structural improvements on the original basis.

Chen Xuanzhen is skilled in refining weapons. He is a master of refining weapons in Yanzhou. He has a very deep understanding of mechanical puppet techniques. When he walked to the test site and saw that he changed his face slightly and looked at Chen Hai: "Has Juquanling greatly improved the internal structure of mechanical beasts?"

Zhao Sihan and five other young craftsmen, when they first saw Ding Shuang, Ge Tong and others moving the machine beasts from the closed car were one-third smaller than normal. They thought that Juquanling only reduced the machine beasts in the same proportion. Unexpectedly, they also made significant improvements to the internal structure. At this time, they were shocked and did not care about rudeness. They hurriedly unfolded the report drawings sent by Juquanling, looking at how many internal structures had changed.

According to the rules, if Juquanling wants to supply the organ beasts to the Jingying Army through the Mojia Division, he can report the drawings. There is no problem with the Mojia Division reviewing the drawings, and then compare the drawings with the actual objects, it will be considered as a technical review. Juquanling does not have to worry about leaking the secrets, because they will definitely leak them. This is also the price of selling the organ beasts to the Jingying Army in batches.

Zhao Sihan and many other craftsmen have been practicing for half their lives to work in the Mojia Department. They all know that there are only a few primary mechanism beasts used for material transportation, and the internal structure of these primary mechanism beasts with the wind array box as the core has been very small after thousands of years of evolution and development.

It can even be said that the more basic the mechanical beast is, the less room for improvement within it.

If the craftsmen in Juquanling can make slight improvements to the internal internals of the primary organ beast, they can be called genius, but it is absolutely impossible to make a significant improvement in their opinion.

The internal structure must be greatly improved. The organ beast will only become worse and worse. This is not a matter of improvement, but a mess.

"How can I change this?" Xue Cun is one of the only two young craftsmen in the Mingqiao Realm in Mojia. He unfolded the drawings and saw a few glances that compared with the conventional mechanical wooden cows, the forelimb connections of the mechanical beasts produced in Juquanling had many changes in the forelimb connections. He was shocked and questioned inexplicably that these changes in Juquanling would reduce the forelimb performance of the mechanical beasts.

"..." Chen Hai smiled slightly, but just reached out to ask the young craftsman Xue Cun to test the performance of the mechanism beast himself.

He thought that the internal improvement of the primary mechanism beast was already quite conservative, but he did not expect that there would be so many disturbances, and it was not surprising to think about it carefully.

Historical Xuan Xiu's research on the puppet technique has been limited to a fixed thinking. In a specific direction, the range of improvements can naturally become narrower and narrower. However, the inertia of his thinking in the two worlds brought about directional changes, so the space for change brought about far exceeds the imagination of the world.
