I engaged in modernization in ancient times

Chapter 20 The Impossible Thing

In everyone's perception, armor needs to be hard and heavy enough to defend against knives and guns.

But now, Mo Shaoheng was tying that padded jacket to the pillar of the Golden Hall, and then got the saint's permission to ask someone to bring in an ordinary soldier.

There are quite a lot of warriors in Beiliang, but the army is still dominated by ordinary soldiers.

In Mo Shaoheng's knowledge, cotton armor, a lightweight soft armor, was used in many dynasties, which is considered basic common sense, and of course there are certain requirements for sewing techniques.

But in any case, compared to the cost of building a pair of armor, it saves too much.

Of course, in the eyes of others, it is a bit unbelievable.

On the Golden Palace, the soldier basically represented the strength of ordinary soldiers in the army.

He was aiming at the cotton-padded jacket tied to the post with his bow.

"Whoosh."

The arrow flew out.

Everyone couldn't help but nodded, this soldier's courage is not bad, he was not frightened by the atmosphere in the Golden Palace, and he played normally.

In an instant, the arrow hit the cotton-padded jacket. The seemingly unstoppable arrow seemed to be blocked by something soft. Unlike the rebound of a hard object, it fell softly along the cotton-padded jacket. on the ground.

Several generals had already surrounded them. If the civil servants were just looking at something strange, then these generals, who had spent their entire lives fighting against the enemy on the battlefield, were the most qualified to judge this.

I saw that the padded jacket tied to the pillar seemed to have been shot into a piece, but it quickly returned to its original shape.

"This……"

It made people not only stunned, but really defended?

Mo Shaoheng originally wanted to explain the principle, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. The more he talked, the more confused he became.

seeing is believing.

Several generals were amazed and even wanted to try it themselves.

"How can you see the effect if you tie it to a pillar, tie it to me." A general said carelessly.

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

In Mo Shaoheng's view, it is a matter of inhumanity and inhumanity to use human beings for experiments, but to these generals, it doesn't seem to be a problem at all.

Fortunately, the cotton armor he brought up today was specially sewn.

The soldier picked up the bow and arrow again, somewhat nervous this time, after all, it was the general who shot him in Beiliang.

On the contrary, those generals acted as if nothing had happened, and they did not forget to remind the general who was wearing a padded jacket, "Don't use your internal strength to resist later."

"Don't worry, even if you shoot me a hole, I won't blink."

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

He was really a rough-skinned and thick-skinned warrior. If an ordinary person was shot with an arrow, his face would probably turn pale.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow shot again.

Similar to the result of last time, after the seemingly ferocious arrow shot at the body, it actually fell limply.

As well as the general, "Huh" in surprise.

Several adults gathered around, "It really didn't shoot through."

If the shot is not pierced, the flesh will not be injured. If the shot is on the flesh, it may already be a blood hole.

Surprised again and again, it is obviously extremely soft, how can it have such defensive power?

Quickly asked again, "How do you feel?"

The general was also touching the spot where he was shot, "I can feel the pain, but it's just an instant thing."

"And, it wasn't really hurt."

"It's not even comparable to the feeling of hitting your body when you're exercising."

hiss!

The entire Golden Palace gasped.

"really?"

Of course they know the meaning of it. Their Beiliang armor is nothing more than that. What's more, even if it can't reach the full defensive power of the armor, the cotton armor is light and light. Wearing it as a whole is probably the same as wearing normal clothes. .

Among the benefits, the eyes of many generals lit up. If his Beiliang soldiers can wear this cotton armor in large quantities, the improvement in strength is unimaginable.

Mo Shaoheng quickly struck while the iron was hot, "I believe everyone has seen the benefits of cotton. It benefits the country and the people. For me in Beiliang, its value exceeds that of silk."

Everyone couldn't help but nodded. For Beiliang, whether it is people's livelihood or military, it is indeed a great thing.

For example, their Beiliang and Xunzhou were taken away by Nanli. Why didn't they send troops to take it back after such a shameful humiliation?

One is that they need to solve the problem of refugees. The refugees need a lot of food, and if they send troops, they also need a lot of food.

Two, their military equipment in Beiliang is not as good as imagined. Once there is a war with Nanli, it will be a protracted war. Beiliang can't afford it, but if they have a lot of cotton armor, it will be different Yes, I'm afraid I killed the past directly in the first place.

A seemingly ordinary cotton can have such a great effect on Beiliang.

Everyone is also watching.

At this time, Mo Shaoheng slightly raised his voice.

"My lords, until now, you still think that I, Mo Shaoheng, are the traitors who seek glory from the enemy?"

"If I really wanted to betray Beiliang, I would have given cotton to Nanli a long time ago. Isn't it enough for me to live a peaceful and prosperous life in Nanli with such credit?"

"Why bother to bring cotton back to Beiliang after life and death?"

"Take a ten thousand step back, even if you flee to other countries with cotton, I, Mo Shaoheng, can still have a place."

"If my heart is not for Beiliang, why should I come back to face the accusations of thousands of people? Why should I be humiliated and insulted by you in this golden palace?"

The entire Golden Palace was silent for a moment.

Only then did they remember that Mo Shaoheng was still arguing with them, still proving his innocence, he was shocked by Mian just now, and even forgot it for a while.

No one spoke.

Fan Kou glanced at Mo Shaoheng. In fact, Mo Shaoheng was secretly changing the concept, because no one can make a conclusion whether Mo Shaoheng offered silk to Nanli in exchange for wealth. This matter is different from cotton, but Mo Shaoheng mixed them together to confuse the public.

And it looks like he is going to succeed, suppressing the possibility of him becoming an enemy, this is also the advantage of Mo Shaoheng leading the defense from the beginning, he can use his ideas to forcibly guide everyone, and let everyone follow his lead Ideas go.

Mo Shaoheng's voice became sonorous, "Everyone in the world insults and scolds me, and they all owe me justice."

"Return my sage, my lords, and return my innocence."

The sound is not loud, but it is evocative.

Everyone: "..."

So in this way, Mo Shaoheng is not only innocent, he also has merit?

So instead, it was the people of Beiliang who failed Mo Shaoheng?

The only thing that could convict Mo Shaoheng was his ineffectiveness in guarding the silk. Compared with his merits, these are a bit insignificant.

For a moment, people looked at each other in blank dismay.

Because it was far from what they had foreseen, or even completely opposite.

Mo Shaoheng really came back to claim credit, which no one thought of.

silence.

Mo Shaoheng continued, "My lords, why don't you speak? Is it because the cotton is not good?"

Everyone: "..."

"Or do you adults think that I, who donated such important things as cotton to Beiliang, still want to betray Beiliang with all my heart?"

Everyone: "..."

At least today, Mo Shaoheng has made great contributions to Beiliang.

Mo Shaoheng cupped his hands, "My lords, Mo Shaoheng's heart is all here today, right and wrong are black and white."

Then sit back and wait.

He is waiting for justice.

In fact, I want everyone to make a conclusion about his treason to the enemy, so as not to have long nights and dreams in the future.

There was a moment of silence, followed by discussions among the people in the hall.

It stands to reason that during the court meeting, only a few adults stand up to discuss, and others can second the proposal, but now, I can't help it, and they are all arguing with the nearby officials.

Mo Shaoheng's cotton offering was so important to Beiliang that they had to discuss it seriously to reach a result.

Mo Shaoheng hugged the Guqin and quietly listened to the discussions around him.

It seems that he is obediently waiting for the trial, but he is actually relieved in his heart.

As long as someone is willing to stand on his side according to his point of view, instead of being one-sided, he is successful.

If there is a disagreement, if it is impossible to convict, it depends on what the saint thinks in the end.

What's more, there were many more voices around him speaking for him.

If things go on like this, the hope of getting rid of the crime of capitalism and treason is in sight.

Everyone was also surprised that Mo Shaoheng really proved his innocence in a desperate situation?If no one comes up with other strong evidence to accuse Mo Shaoheng of treason, the result may be beyond the imagination of the people of the world.

Just as he was thinking about it, a person suddenly appeared in front of him, "Saint, even if Mo Shaoheng is not convicted of treason by the enemy, his crime cannot be pardoned."

"Don't forget, Mo Shaoheng's assassination of the young Nanli Emperor Sima Keyao led to the loss of the six lands of Xunzhou in northern Liang. Now, refugees from Xundi are pouring into Liangjing, and the disaster is shocking..."

Mo Shaoheng looked over with a frown, why did Cheng Yaojin come out halfway?

Those who came out were the rich and noble youths in the front of the Golden Palace dressed in fish and dragon costumes.Mo Shaoheng frowned even more. This costume is... the prince of Beiliang.

Ten years ago, the prince Lan and Mo Shaoheng went to Nanli together. After hearing that Zhao Lan returned to Beiliang, he was crowned prince because of this achievement.

Of course, the main reason why Zhao Lan can be crowned prince is definitely not this, but because his mother and concubine are the current queens of Beiliang.

In fact, there is one thing that Mo Shaoheng didn't say nonsense, that is, when he was sent to Nanli ten years ago, he was indeed abandoned by the mission.

A person, staying alone in a foreign country.

He is the eldest son of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, the only male in the direct line, ordinary people would dare to treat him like this, even the officials of the mission would not dare.

The only possibility is that Prince Lan could force the missionary to abandon him by abusing his private power.

The grievance between Mo Shaoheng and Prince Lan is actually very simple to say, after all, they were children at the time, no matter how big the grievance can be, how big can it be.

But before Mo Shaoheng was taken into the palace to be raised, the little princes and companions in the palace were all around Prince Lan because of his excellence, and after Mo Shaoheng entered the palace, those who were originally surrounded by Prince Lan people surrounded Mo Shaoheng.

To be honest, Mo Shaoheng really didn't take the jealousy among children seriously, but sometimes, jealousy can make a person extremely ugly, regardless of age.

Maybe if he stays in Nanli forever, someone can become the center of everyone again, and the fact seems to be true, Zhao Lan will become the country's society and the prince of Beiliang.

Everyone also realized that Mo Shaoheng's crime was far more than being a traitor to the enemy.

The crime of causing a national war by one person and causing the loss of the country is not much less than the crime of supporting the enemy and betraying the country.

Before Mo Shaoheng could speak, another person stood up in front of him.

A slender body with an expressionless face.

"Refugees from Xunzhou outside the city gathered, but fortunately, porridge made of Sophora japonica flowers and coarse grains can temporarily alleviate the disaster."

It seems to be answering the question of refugees that Prince Zhao Lan mentioned just now.

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

Everyone: "..."

It was Zhao Di, king of Yan, who spoke.

Everyone looked at Yan Wang Zhao Di for a while, and Mo Shaoheng for a while.

Everyone in Liangjing knew that the method of making porridge from Sophora japonica flowers was invented by Immortal Linjiang. What did King Yan stand up and say at this time?

Is it just the dispute between King Yan and the prince?

As we all know, Yan Wang Zhao Di has a cold face and even colder heart. He may not even care about other people's affairs in front of him, let alone intervene.

Zhao Lan glanced at Zhao Di, who was completely clueless, "Yan Wang also said that it was only a temporary relief of the disaster. Even Mo Shaoheng's strategy of making porridge with Sophora japonica flowers is worth his crime?"

In the end, as soon as Zhao Lan's voice fell, Mo Shaoheng said, "I can solve the food problem for the refugees."

What is non-surprising and endlessly endless, this is it.

It is not a matter of a day or two to relieve these refugees. How much food will be consumed?

The whole Beiliang couldn't handle things, yet Mo Shaoheng actually said he could solve them?This is not as simple as temporarily relieving the disaster.

Everyone's first reaction was that Mo Shaoheng was crazy.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, if there is no world-wide effort to suppress his charges, there is no possibility for him to stand up.

Maybe it's inappropriate to say that now, and this is the opportunity for him to return to Liangjing to gain a firm foothold.
