Chapter 267 Relegation
The more Hou Junji thought about it, the more excited he became, and finally he turned his head and said happily to Wang Dong: "That's right, this thing is very wonderful. Now these craftsmen have mastered the manufacturing method of this trebuchet?"

Wang Dong nodded and said with a smile: "After this production, all craftsmen should be familiar with the production of this kind of trebuchet. Presumably, they can make trebuchets faster on the battlefield."

All the craftsmen were shocked for a moment when they heard the words, will we?

During the production process of this trebuchet, they felt that they had done nothing of value at all, they just broke the wood and nailed these long and short things according to Wang Dong's diagram, so when Wang Dong said that they could When they were making the trebuchet themselves, the remaining dozen or so workers felt a little afraid to take on such a responsibility. However, after a moment of surprise, when everyone thought about it carefully, they found that there was really nothing else involved in making the trebuchet.

They watched how Wang Dong guided them all the way. Looking back, everyone found that in the process of making the trebuchet, Wang Dong did not have much advantage over them. The chart of the long and short data supervised them to open the wood, and then put it together.

Then everyone quickly reversed it, which meant that as long as they got the data and blueprints in Wang Dong's hands, they could easily assemble a large gravity trebuchet by themselves according to the steps in the picture!

Thinking of all the craftsmen here, all of them suddenly had a feeling of light in their eyes.

In the past, it often took them a long time to learn how to make a new type of machinery, so as to understand the principles and key points, but this time Wang Dong's trebuchet seems to only need to follow the instructions and follow the instructions. That is to say, at this moment, they have mastered the production skills of this kind of machine without realizing it!
Thinking of this, everyone can't help but feel quite surprised in their hearts. You must know that in this era, a new kind of machinery will be produced, and speaking out is a real foundation!

Sure enough, after Wang Dong said that they already knew how to make trebuchets, Hou Junji looked at the crowd with admiration and said, "So, you've learned pretty well. You should work hard in front of the battle in the future!"

Hearing this, the craftsmen were all excited. They couldn't help but look at Wang Dong together, thinking that they had been dissatisfied with Wang Dong for a period of time, but in the end Wang Dong completed the task so reliably and used the manufacturing method of this machine. He taught it to them without reservation, and for a while many people actually felt quite ashamed that they had so many opinions on Wang Dong before.

Hou Junji didn't know so many complicated thoughts in the middle, and at this time he listened to Wang Dongdao again.

"My lord, although the production of this catapult is simple, the soldiers who use the catapult still need some training. If your lord really wants to put this catapult into actual combat, I suggest that you should send some soldiers to let me teach them how to use this catapult." The aiming method of the machine.

Only then did Hou Junji come to his senses, and quickly nodded in agreement.He could imagine that aiming at the target through a parabolic trajectory is definitely a very complicated job. Now that he has such a good machine, Hou Junji naturally thinks that he can train a group of trebuchet operators that can be used in actual combat. At the moment, he thought for a while, and directly ordered the sergeant behind him:
"Tomorrow, we will find a few clever soldiers from our marching chief's mansion to learn the operation of this trebuchet."

He thought for a while, and then said to the guard behind him:
"Didn't our Army General Manager's Mansion just transfer a few students from the Imperial College to be clerks? Go and see if there are any students in it, and if they are sent sometimes, then they come here."

After Hou Junji finished giving his instructions, he looked up at the trebuchet for a long time, patted the wooden frame happily, and then praised Wang Dong greatly, then turned around and suddenly saw the three Wu Junsmiths standing still on the ground. After being stunned, Hou Junji's face showed a trace of anger.

Because of the escape of the three Wu Jun craftsmen, he almost dismissed Wang Dong's position. Who would have thought that Wang Dong would make the trebuchet so quickly. At this time, Hou Junji thought that Wu Jun Jiang was with him After saying so many bad things about Wang Dong, I couldn't help feeling a little scared.

If he hadn't finally decided to give Wang Dong some more time to prove himself, maybe he would have changed coaches at that time, or even canceled this semi-finished project directly.

If this is the case, the siege artifact in front of him will probably never appear again.

Thinking about it this way, the three Wu Jun craftsmen, master and apprentice really almost made him waste a great opportunity.

Hou Junji thought about it and couldn't help but glance at Wang Dong. Although Wang Dong had an indifferent expression on his face, Hou Junji did not dare to underestimate his thoughts too much. In his heart, Wang Dong did this this time. Naturally, he had to give Wang Dong more face due to his great achievements. However, Wu Junjiang and the other three fled before the battle. He felt that this was probably a big blow to Wang Dong. If Wang Dong had made great achievements at this time and he had not expressed anything, Hou Junji thought to himself that he was too incompetent.

After thinking for a while, he raised his head and said directly: "Soldier listen! There are three old military craftsmen Wu Zheng and others who refused to accept discipline, violated military orders, and disturbed people's hearts. Qinzhou built a city to see the effect."

As soon as this remark came out, the three Wu Jun craftsmen, master and apprentice trembled all over.Wu Junjiang has applied for more than ten years before the battle, and finally he was promoted to the position of construction. If he goes up, he can become an official. Now, Hou Junji has directly sent them back to ordinary military craftsmen. Wu Junjiang is more than 50 years old. Given that his age was below the average life expectancy at this time, it would be great to go to Tianshui to repair the city and work for another ten years.

And within ten years, it is absolutely impossible for him to climb to the position of formation construction again. This is equivalent to Wu Junjiang and his apprentices all losing their backing in Tang Jun's military craftsman system. into clouds.

General Wu and his apprentices were all heartbroken, but they didn't dare to express too much. Hou Junji had already given him face, and he was just belittling him as an ordinary craftsman. If he obeyed his orders and went to Qinzhou , although there is no hope of promotion in this life, at least he can return to his hometown safely as a military craftsman in his old age. If he continues to make noises and angers Hou Junji to deal with him for violating military orders before the battle, he has to go back now.For an old carpenter in his 50s, he no longer has a strong ability to work. If he returns to his hometown, is it possible that he can only make a living doing carpentry in the farm for the rest of his life?

And the two apprentices of old craftsman Wu felt extremely sad when they heard the words. Their biggest backer in the Tang army was originally this famous master in the army, but now with the master being demoted, they must suffer a loss They were all damaged, and there was some resentment in their hearts. At the beginning, Wu Junjiang suggested that they should go directly to the general manager's mansion to sue Wang Donghei for his decision, but even if they regretted it now, it was already irreversible.
