Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 382 "Undercutting" Phenomenon (4000)

Wu Liang was not prepared.

Dian Wei had just entered, so he was also unprepared.

then.

"Oh!"

After hearing a muffled sound, Fang Qiong had already slammed his head against the brick wall, and then his body limply collapsed, his eyes were closed tightly, and blood was gurgling down the top of his head.

"..."

Wu Liang was stunned.

He really didn't expect Fang Qiong to be so decisive that he would be bumped to death if he disagreed.

at the same time.

Fang Qiong's actions also gave him a new understanding of the "Tomb of the Sun". It seems that the place is definitely not as simple as imagined.

Otherwise, Fang Qiong, who seemed to have some desire to survive before this, would resolutely choose the third way-death when faced with the two choices of "giving birth" and "returning to the tomb of the sun".

It can be seen that these two things have been equated in her eyes, and both are more terrifying than death.

"Look how she is doing."

After recovering, Wu Liang said calmly.

He sympathized with Fang Qiong somewhat, but not completely.

Although this girl's life experience was miserable and pitiful, but after gaining some abilities that could change fate, she immediately chose to extend the butcher knife to other innocent people.

The young dragon slayer turned into the dragon he hated the most, even more cruel than the dragon.

This may not be entirely her fault, but also the fault of this world. An ordinary person who wants to survive in such a troubled world and live a better life is doomed to drift with the tide.

But everyone is responsible for the choices they make, no one is an exception, and the same is true for Fang Qiong.

But now, Wu Liang didn't want her to die, even if he wanted to die, he would have to wait until he learned about the "Tomb of the Sun". If necessary, Wu Liang might really need her to be his guide.

After all, Shanshan is easy to find, but not everyone can find the "Tomb of the Sun", otherwise how can it be preserved in future generations?

But having said that, in fact, regarding the location of the "Tomb of the Sun", Wu Liang already had a rough idea in mind.

Because the archaeological world of later generations has confirmed that the "Tomb of the Sun" is on the north bank of the ancient Kongque River. When he arrived in Shanshan, if he could find out the location of the ancient Kongque River from the local population, the scope would be narrowed down a lot.

The problem is that Wu Liang does not have a detailed map of Shanshan and its surrounding areas, and it is not sure how much the local people know about the ancient Kongque River. After all, the ancient Kongque River has been diverted many times in history, and the "Tomb of the Sun" belongs to Even now, he is not sure how much useful information and materials have been left on the "Lop Nur" civilization that has been faulted for more than 2000 years, and he does not dare to be too confident.

Therefore, Fang Qiong may still be useful to him.

Not to mention the black dragon storm that Fang Qiong described earlier that brought her into the "Tomb of the Sun".

"My lord, I still have breath, I should just pass out..."

Dian Wei stepped forward to sniff Fang Qiong, then turned around and said to Wu Liang.

"It's good if you don't die."

Wu Liang nodded slightly, and then shouted out the door, "Jingjing, I know you've been eavesdropping outside, don't hide, come in."

"Tch, who overheard, don't talk nonsense..."

Bai Jingjing walked in from the outside with a pretty face red, but she gave Wu Liang a bluffing look, and said angrily, "Why did you ask me to come in?"

"You know a little bit about medical skills. You stopped the bleeding and bandaged her briefly, and then changed her clothes. In short, don't let her die. I still have something to ask."

Wu Liang didn't argue with her, and said with a smile, "Dianwei, you can tie her up a little bit later, don't tell her to break free again, and order a few soldiers to keep an eye on her. If she wakes up, immediately Come and call me."

"promise!"

Dian Wei replied.

Bai Jingjing curled her lips, and said in a strange way: "Isn't the sun coming out from the west today? I heard you just wanted to teach her to take off her clothes and check her body. Now why are you willing to teach me to change her clothes? It's a good thing." Are you willing to miss it?"

"And you said you didn't eavesdrop?"

Wu Liang said lightly while avoiding the seriousness.

"That's not what I call eavesdropping, I'm called the supervisor. You have to know that if I'm doing it for your own good, I won't let you do some shameless things and humiliate your status as a high-ranking general."

Bai Jingjing was stunned for a moment, but immediately said with confidence.

"Thank you madam for your concern."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and thanked, "It's just that the night is late, and the long night is long, but I don't want to sleep. I wonder if Madam is free tonight. Come to my room and let's play backgammon all night?"

"..."

Bai Jingjing's pretty face flushed instantly, she spat and cursed softly, "Who is your wife! Who wants to play chess with you!"

"It's fine to do something else, Madam, don't forget the promise of Mianshui."

Wu Liang reminded with a smile again.

"Have I ever promised you? Why don't I remember."

Bai Jingjing resolutely pretended to be stupid.

"It doesn't matter, I'll take a hot bath first."

Wu Liang smiled coquettishly, blinked at Bai Jingjing, and said softly, "Wait for you."

……

That night.

Bai Jingjing finally arrived as promised in the dead of night like a thief.

Then he kept the ancestral motto of the ancestors of the Bai family with the sentence "I'm not ready yet, I will definitely do it next time", and had a "sex and ritual" with Wu Liang.

Afterwards, nestling in Wu Liang's arms, Bai Jingjing drew circles on his chest with her jade finger, and asked about what she "overheard" before: "Are you planning to go to Shanshan this time?"

"It hasn't been decided yet, but one day we will go."

Wu Liang also drew circles on Bai Jingjing's back, and said in a deep voice, "It depends on the situation, you first arrange the ceremony for those girls, if after the ceremony, we still haven't found a suitable target, I'm afraid I can only go to Shanshan Kingdom in advance, life is too short to be idle."

Boss Cao has found Cao Ang and Cao Teng, and he should return to Juancheng soon.

According to Xi Zhicai, Boss Cao has basically completed the assembly of the army, and with the food donated by the Chenliu gentry "voluntarily", the food and salary are also very sufficient. It will definitely not be long before he returns this time. Expedition.

The battlefield situation is changing rapidly, not to mention that the opponent is still Lu Bu, and Liu Bei may also get involved. This will undoubtedly expand the battlefield to Xuzhou and Qingzhou. Even if Boss Cao is well prepared, he does not know how long this battle will last.

After all, in history, Boss Cao had indeed fought with Lu Bu and Liu Bei here for a long time, and even Yuan Shu joined the battle group in the end.

And the war had nothing to do with Wu Liang, so he was naturally completely free.

Also.

Based on the history Wu Liang knows and the current situation, even if Boss Cao’s battle went smoothly, the speed of expansion should be slowed down afterwards, because he should have the opportunity to welcome Emperor Xian of Han soon. From then on, he "took the emperor to command the princes".

During this period of time, Boss Cao's site expansion was not too fast.

Only after the decisive battle with Yuan Shao at Guandu did he truly control the large tracts of land in the north and the Central Plains. At that time, Wu Liang was able to rob the tomb under the protection of Boss Cao. Otherwise, as long as he left Yanzhou, he would still enter other people's land. There are still some risks in the territory.

and.

After that, Boss Cao couldn't take care of Ma Teng's headquarters in Liangzhou for a long time.

So that every time Boss Cao was going to fight Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang would send spies to the town where Boss Cao was stationed to spread the news that "Ma Teng has rebelled", so as to confuse Boss Cao's audition and contain Cao's offensive.

Therefore, it is definitely unrealistic to expect Boss Cao to go to Shanshan through Liangzhou after taking Liangzhou. The environment and Fang Qiong would rather die than face the unknown danger again.

and so……

Rather than being passive here and working hard for Boss Cao to establish a territory, if there is really no goal worth going to recently, it is better to take advantage of the current chaos to make a secret, and do the things you want to do in advance, so that you don't need to think about it in the future.

And then another.

Wu Liang remembered that there was also a "Jingjue Ancient City" in the tomb-robbing novels of later generations, and there was a "Jingjue Queen" widely known to fans of the novel.

But now at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, this "Jingjue Kingdom" has been annexed by "Shanshan Kingdom".

That is to say, when it comes to "Shanshan Kingdom", it is equivalent to arriving in "Jingjue Kingdom". Wu Liang can also take this opportunity to experience it.

After all, in history, this "Jingjue Country" was an ancient country that disappeared earlier than "Shanshan Country". The grass is desolate and there is no way to recover".

In other words.

The "Jingjue Country" actually turned into a swamp at that time, not the arid desert that later generations thought.

This point is actually very worthy of careful study. Perhaps the disappearance of the "Shanshan Kingdom" and "Jingjue Kingdom" on the Silk Road was not due to excessive deforestation that led to the migration of deserts as many people think, but another reason.

"If I really want to go to Shanshan, I'm afraid I'll have to leave for a long time this time, and the journey is so far away that Fei Nu may not be able to use it."

Bai Jingjing murmured.

That's true, the main purpose of the flying slaves for their Huren army is to send messages for help.

But on such a long journey, there is a tyrannical entanglement in the middle that Boss Cao can't solve immediately. Even if Wu Liang can pass the news back, Boss Cao is beyond his reach.

"You are right, so if we really want to go, we must be fully prepared."

Wu Liang nodded, picked up Bai Jingjing's hair and smelled it, then held her head and pushed her down, and said with a cowardly smile, "Jingjing, I think I'm doing it again... "

……

The next day.

When Wu Liang woke up, he asked Dian Wei to check in the backyard, and learned that Fang Qiong hadn't woken up until now. It seems that this time the injury should be serious, and he hoped not to hurt his brain, otherwise he might wake up forever But come.

But this is not something he can decide, he can only continue to wait.

Taking advantage of this skill, Wu Liang taught Dian Wei to prepare horses and went to the Huan army camp in Yongqiu County.

He had already explained to Sun Ye, Thyme and Zhuge Liang before, teaching them to work together to improve the design of the "Vajra Umbrella" and "Flying Tiger Claw", and strive to build them as soon as possible to the extent that they can be put into use.

Besides.

This time Wu Liang brought back a lot of chisels made of special materials from the Gongshu Tomb. Those chisels have not rusted after thousands of years, and their strength has reached the level of digging rocks. "Tiger Claw" good material, absolutely durable.

Of course, it is also a good material for making magical weapons.

So after asking Dian Wei what he thought, Wu Liang had told them to design and find someone to use this material to make two halberds for Dian Wei.

As the saying goes, "a good horse matches a good saddle".

For a fierce general like Dian Wei, with such a sharp weapon, he is even more powerful, and it is by no means comparable to an ordinary engineer shovel.

Returning to the Huan army garrison in this way, Wu Liang had just walked to the door of the workshop specially arranged for Sun Ye, Thyme and Zhuge Liang, when he heard a rather fierce quarrel:

"I've said it a long time ago. Although your rotating shaft is wonderful, it's less practical. Take a look, it's still not working, right?"

"That's because the rotating shaft is temporarily carved out of wood, and it's still such a small rotating shaft, so it can't bear too much force naturally, so there is no reason for the teeth to be continuous. If the wood is replaced with fine iron, the degree of strength will be natural. different!"

"Don't make a fuss. This time I'm Sister Xiang'er. I just carefully observed the operation of your rotating shaft. As long as the bearing rotates, the shaft teeth on it will snap. It only takes a few times for the roots of the shaft teeth to A groove will be worn out, even if it is replaced with refined iron, it will be unavoidable, and it will still be possible to break the teeth in a short time."

"Then what do you guys think? Do you just use her tendon and hemp rope? Those things will only become more unreliable, and even a little water will affect their use!"

"..."

Just as they got here, Wu Liang pushed the door open and entered.

"Son."

"Homeowner."

"Talented brother."

The three of them quickly stopped their quarrel and saluted Wu Liang together.

"What are you fighting for?"

Wu Liang asked with a smile.

"..."

Sun Ye and Thyme looked at each other without answering.

"Brother talented, look, it's like this..."

Zhuge Liang picked up a rotating shaft with broken teeth and came to Wu Liang, explaining in detail the problems they were encountering now.

"This……"

Wu Liang was not an engineer, and he knew nothing about machinery, so he had no right to speak.

However, after seeing the rotating shaft that Zhuge Liang handed over, especially after carefully looking at the small depression at the root of the shaft teeth that was worn out and made the shaft teeth fragile, he suddenly remembered that he had seen it at a small broken station before crossing. A popular science video.

There is a mention of a phenomenon called "undercutting" related to the operation of gears.

It's not a coincidence, isn't it?

He vaguely remembered that the title of the video seemed to be "Why can't the number of gear teeth be less than 17? What would happen if there were fewer?"

It was this name suspected of being a "headline party" that aroused his curiosity, so he clicked on it.
