Chapter eight hundred and first inspiration(1/2)

The arrival of the two armies' warriors suddenly reduced the pressure on Beishan Pass, and the equipment brought by the new force also allowed the Ning army to destroy the remaining two siege ramps.

Standing on the city wall and watching the two ramps collapse after being burned, Li Chi could finally breathe a long sigh.

Maybe the Black Warriors will build new siege ramps, maybe they will push the siege ramps on the next cloudy night.

But this time, after losing 100,000 troops and being burned down six siege ramps, the black warriors were still standing outside Beishan Pass.

The enemy's steps cannot be left at will in every inch of land within this mountain pass.

The Black Warrior also seemed to have been hit after all the ramps were destroyed.

Watching the two ramps collapse in the blazing fire, the team of the black warriors retreated like a tide.

In the next three days, the black warriors did not come to attack again.

Maybe I am thinking of a new way, maybe I want to build a ramp again, maybe I am frustrated and need to rest.

For three and a half months, the arrogant black warrior has long been almost wiped out.

Under the city, on the open space in the schoolyard.

Gao Xining stood there as if he was thinking about something, but he had been motionless for a while. His beautiful eyebrows were raised from time to time, as if he had realized something.

About a moment later, Gao Xining bent down and took a stone from the bamboo basket she had prepared, threw it out towards the front, and the stone drew a beautiful parabola and landed on the ground.

Then Gao Xining took another stone, changed his position and threw it out, which was slightly closer than what he had just thrown.

She stood there and pondered again.

These days, Li Chi took the soldiers of the Ning army to resist the Black Martial Army, the huge siege vehicles of the Black Martial Arts, the larger siege ramps, and dozens of times the strength of the Ning army...

Gao Xining always felt that he had thought of something, but that feeling was a little misty, but he couldn't catch it all at once.

These days, the black warrior has not sieged the city, and she has been recalling her thoughts on the battlefield.

After Li Chi arranged military affairs, he returned to his residence. He did not see Gao Xining. After asking his personal soldiers, he found out that Gao Xining had arrived at the school grounds, so he came over all the way.

In fact, he had been there for a while and was watching Gao Xining throwing stones. It could be seen that Gao Xining was not practicing, but looking for a more reasonable posture.

And this rationality is obviously not reasonable for people.

As Li Chi looked at it, he suddenly understood what Gao Xining was thinking.

"Are you thinking of creating a weapon that can hit the enemy farther than a heavy crossbow? For example, something that can be shot back and shot."

Ask while walking.

Gao Xining turned around and looked at Li Chi and smiled, because Li Chi guessed her thoughts, because only Li Chi could guess her thoughts.

In the eyes of others, she may think she is just practicing throwing stones.

"if......"

Gao Xining said to Li Chi: "It can create something like a human arm, that is, a larger arm, which can throw larger stones out...then you can destroy these things before the enemy's siege ramp or building cart approaches the city wall."

Li Chi's mind had already lit up. At the moment when he understood what Gao Xining was thinking, a beam of light lit up in his mind.

There is no doubt that Taoist Changmei is definitely one of the best craftsmen in the world. The incredible thing he can create such a Liuyun Array Map is enough to illustrate the problem.

As the best and only disciple of the Changmei Taoist, Li Chi learned enough from the Changmei Taoist.

"It's like a human arm, bigger arms..."

Li Chi murmured to himself, his eyes narrowed slightly.

At this moment, countless thoughts popped up in his mind in an instant, but because there were too many, it was very confusing.

This world is big, far beyond everyone's imagination. For example, the Black Warriors, they think at least half of the world belongs to the Black Warrior Empire, and the remaining half are other countries including the Central Plains.

The people of the Central Plains' understanding of the world only stays in places where they have broadened their horizons, such as the Western Regions, the Heiwu, the East China Sea, and the Southern Xinjiang.

Whether it is the Black Martial Arts or the Central Plains people, you cannot see this empire called rest in a very far place.

And this empire has created a stone-throwing cart, and relied on this weapon to conquer cities and land, and has become one of the powerful countries on that land.

In fact, Gao Xining's idea was to throw a stone cart, but there was no experience provided by his predecessors to refer to, so the idea was just a prototype.

Li Chi squatted down on the ground, and composed the picture with a wooden stick on the ground. Gao Xining squatted beside him and watched, adding a few words from time to time.

The two of them wrote and painted like this on the school grounds, and before they knew it, they quietly passed by the whole morning.

In the distance, Yu Jiuling sat on the low wall next to the school ground, swaying his legs, and watching Li Chi and Gao Xining smirk.

Dan Tai came back with people patrol the camp and happened to see Yu Jiuling sitting there smiling foolishly, so he came over.

He sat down on the low wall next to Yu Jiuling, and then asked, "What are you giggling?"

Yu Jiuling said: "Look, the head of the family and my elder brother are so old, they are still squatting on the ground and painting the other way. These two have been playing for a long time."

Dan Tai looked at it, then curled his lips: "You are really talking nonsense. Will the head of the family and Miss Gao be so naive that they have been playing on the ground for a long time?"

He paused for a moment and said seriously: "I think the head and Miss Gao are playing jumping into the pit."

Yu Jiuling: "Ah!"

He opened his eyes wide and looked at Dan Tai’s ruthlessness: “How can you say that? When you say that, I think you are right.”

Dan Tai laughed loudly: "That's right, how smart I am."

Yu Jiuling asked: "Then what do you mean when the head and my elder brother are drawing and lifting their hands up while they are like throwing something?"

Tan Tai thought about it for a while, and learned from Gao Xining's voice and tone, "Diuer, I think it's accurate to throw a stone into the pit like this."

Then he followed Li Chi's tone and movement and said, "I think this is the only way to throw it away, and I can definitely splash the person who is squatting."

Then he learned Gao Xining's tone and said, "I don't believe it unless I can find someone to try it."

Then he followed Li Chi's tone and said, "Okay, let's tie up the Ninth Sister in a while and let him squat in the pit."

Yu Jiuling: "..."

He sighed and said to Tan Tai's Counterattack: "Can you still remember yourself, what kind of person you were before you met us? Look at you now, you are full of shit and peeing..."

Tan Tai snorted: "I'm full of shit, peeing, and farts. Are you all spraying?"

Yu Jiuling: "I'm facing you with my butt?"

Dan Tai grabbed Yu Jiuling and sat on Yu Jiuling.

Yu Jiuling lay there: "If you can't tell me, you will be beaten. You... have no martial ethics at all."

Dan Tai laughed loudly, got up and let Yu Jiuling get up, and said with a smile: "You can't beat me, just say I don't have martial virtues, I can't talk about you. Could it be that you don't have verbal virtues? Then again, what kind of person do you think I am when you first met me?"

Yu Jiuling said: "Don't think too much. What bad intentions can I have? I can't think of you as a bad person or a ronin. When I first saw you, I felt that this guy was just like this guy... I pretended to be like a different person."

Dan Tai pulled Yu Jiuling over at the slightest moment, and then stuffed it under his butt and sat down.

On the other side of the schoolyard, Li Chi looked at all the drawings carefully, then smiled and said, "I'll go back and sort out the drawings on the paper, and then find the wood to make a small one first. If it can work, then make a larger one."

Gao Xining laughed: "Good!"

Li Chi said: "Where's the best?"

Gao Xining said: "Good face, great."

Li Chi: "..."

Then they walked back as they said something, and saw that Dan Tai was bullying Yu Jiuling and pressing Yu Jiuling under his butt.

Gao Xining smiled and said, "What are they doing?"

Li Chi said: "The old hen sits in the nest... giggles, and a Yu Jiudan is laid out."

Gao Xining laughed with a thunderous sound.

After returning, Li Chi drew out what he had thought of before on paper, and then found wood to do it himself.

To make a small model, it is not less difficult than to build a real stone throwing car.

Every component must be small and accurate, and it must be less than a real stone thrower.

Therefore, this purely handmade production will take a long time, and it will not be a matter of one day or one night.

Fortunately, the black warriors should be adjusting and had no intention of continuing to attack the city for a while. Xiahou Zhuo and the others guessed that the black warriors might be building siege ramps and other siege weapons.

But Li Chi and the others were not very worried, because there was not much time left for the black warriors to attack.

It is already midsummer now, and if the number of ramps built by the Black Warriors is too small, it will not work.

If six siege ramps were built in three months as before, then it would be late autumn.

The northern border in late autumn is not as bright and cool as Jizhou, but it has started to snow and the weather is very cold.

Beishan Pass in October can be called "Dripping water into ice". If the black warrior pushes the ramp up, Ning Jun only needs to pour water on the ramp continuously. It is not easy for the black warrior to climb up the ramp.

Such peace is actually a rare rest time for both sides. The black warriors rectified their military equipment and the Ning army was able to breathe.

Ten days passed without realizing it, and there was still no change in the Black Warriors, and they didn't know what they were planning.

And at this moment, in Yuzhou.

As a big city under the rule of Yuzhou, Fengzhou plays an important role. The reason for this is not only because of its military importance, but also because the Cao family built all the workshops for military manufacturing in Fengzhou.

The martial arts workshop here is very efficient, and craftsmen are familiar with the process of manufacturing various weapons and armor.
To be continued...
