The generals looked blank, once again feeling as if they were listening to a heavenly book.

Gao Yang was very considerate and specifically asked when he reached this point, "Can you understand my explanation?"

The generals shook their heads in unison.

"Prime Minister Gao, what you said is too profound; we can't understand it at all, but it feels like it makes a lot of sense."

"It is normal not to understand; if you understood, that would be abnormal."

"This is all my exclusive knowledge."

Gao Yang said with a smile.

Huyan Gudu really wanted to look up to the sky and howl.

Oh Heaven!

Oh Earth!

Great Eternal Heaven, open your eyes and look!

Is there still justice?

Is there still law?

This Gao Yang... he doesn't seem like a local!

He even understands the growth laws of a tree; how can this be fought?

But for the sake of his little life, Huyan Gudu could only endure it.

He had to bear the humiliation and carry the burden.

On his shoulders, he carried the hope of the entire Hexi land!

"My Lord, then what about these shovels? They look a bit different from our Great Qian shovels."

"Could it be that there is another mystery?" Wang Xiao picked up a shovel, looking curious.

"Oh."

"This thing is called a spiral iron shovel. It was specially crafted when I previously wanted to send people to the desert to dig up the tombs of the Xiongnu Chanyus through the ages and steal their burial goods."

"This spiral shovel uses the Archimedes spiral principle. When shoveling sand, it can use rotational inertia to reduce friction and increase sand removal efficiency."

"It's not much faster, just three or four times!"

Gao Yang said lightly.

Hiss!

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyeballs almost popped out.

Three or four times faster, and that's not much faster?

Huyan Gudu looked grief-stricken; listen, is this still human language?

Three or four times faster, and that's not much faster?

Too insane!

The Hexi land is in danger!!!

"I forgot that Prime Minister Gao is extremely skilled in the Mohist way; I deserve to die."

"Then what about this big copper basin? What is this used for? Is it also for finding water?"

Li Chengye looked at the big copper basin in Wu Guang's arms and could not help but continue to ask.

Gao Yang said faintly upon hearing this.

"This is used to predict black sandstorms."

Gao Yang's single sentence attracted everyone's attention.

"Black sandstorm?"

Li Chengye stared fixedly at Gao Yang, his face full of disbelief.

"Prime Minister Gao, can black sandstorms also be predicted in advance?"

Anna looked incredulous.

Huyan Gudu also looked horrified.

In the desert, the most feared thing is, of course, the lack of water sources, but there is another thing that is even more terrifying.

That is the black sandstorm!

Once encountered, this terrifying natural force, which blocks the sky and sun, would be a devastating disaster for passing caravans and armies!

But Gao Yang said it could be predicted in advance, just by relying on that small copper basin.

How is this possible?

But Li Erji was very excited and said, "Predicting a black sandstorm, what is that?"

"Prime Minister Gao could predict the white-haired gale in Canglan Mountain in advance!"

By comparison, Wang Xiao, Li Erji, and Pu Duo were much calmer.

"Predicting the white-haired gale? Prime Minister Gao actually has this ability!"

Li Chengye was completely unsettled.

Huyan Gudu was completely numb.

Is this still a human?

Can the white-haired gale also be predicted in advance?

No wonder the Great Qian cavalry killed their way into the Hexi land from Canglan Mountain without a sound!

Gao Yang's expression was very calm, and he began a dimensional strike.

"The main principle of predicting black sandstorms is to use electrostatic induction for early warning."

"When a black sandstorm in the Sudan Desert sweeps in, the air is too dry and rubs against each other, which will cause the sand grains to carry a certain electrostatic charge."

"As a conductor, when we put a handful of dry sand grains into the copper basin, they will show a specific arrangement!"

"When the voltage exceeds a certain level, under the action of Coulomb force, the charges of the same sign repel each other, and they will form a ring shape."

"This is the early warning of the arrival of a black sandstorm!"

"Of course, when the voltage is too strong and the sand grains appear in an upright thorn shape, the black sandstorm will be even more terrifying. Can you understand my explanation?"

The generals fell into deep thought.

Li Chengye also felt like he was asking for humiliation.

Li Erji said in a deep voice, "Prime Minister Gao, I understand."

"Is it that there is also a situation where charges of opposite signs attract each other?"

Li Erji looked serious.

Hiss!

Gao Yang was shocked.

He stared at Li Erji, feeling extremely shocked in his heart.

Could it be that this Li Erji has been playing the pig to eat the tiger?

"How do you know?"

Li Erji laughed loudly, "These charges are quite like people; people also have the same sex repelling and opposite sex attracting!"

"Prime Minister Gao, can they also give birth to small charges, the kind where one gives birth to two?"

Li Erji winked.

"Get out!"

"Shut up!"

Gao Yang's mouth twitched, and he spoke directly.

What the hell is giving birth to small charges!

"Alright." Li Erji hurriedly shut his mouth.

"Prime Minister Gao, then what about this star chart and this little brother from the Imperial Observatory?"

Li Chengye hurriedly changed the subject and looked at Wu Ying beside him.

Gao Yang glanced at Wu Ying and said to him, "Wu Ying, Commandant Li is asking a question; you should answer it yourself."

"Yes!"

Wu Ying held the star chart and said to Li Chengye: "Reporting to Commandant Li, I am here to help the army identify directions."

"When the army crosses the Sudan Desert, every night I will use the twenty-eight constellations in the sky to check the angle between the direction pointed by the Xiongnu guides and the Big Dipper."

"Then I use the scale corresponding to the crossbow to judge; if it is greater than ten degrees, they will be beheaded!"

Once these words were spoken. ===== CHAPTER 1685 =====
