"Is it still called Fang Gongzi?" Fang Ming looked at Xu Tianba, full of anticipation.

"Subordinate Xu Tianba, meet the lord. Xu Tianba knelt down and bowed, recognizing Fang Ming as the master.

"Okay, with the help of Tianba, I am one step closer to stepping on the peak and smiling proudly in the world. Fang Ming said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness. ”

"Tianba, how did you get this bottle of Returning Qi Pill?" Thinking of the effect of the Returning Qi Pill, Fang Ming's eyes lit up, and his saliva flowed.

If this thing can be a little more, the speed of one's own growth can definitely be increased a lot, this is only an expired, defective pill, if it is an intact Qi Rejuvenation Pill, I can't imagine it.

"Lord, this bottle of elixir was snatched from that landlord's house last year. I have verified, he was also deceived, spent 100,000 taels of silver, thought he had picked up a big bargain, but I didn't expect to buy this pile of discarded pills back, I couldn't use it, I couldn't sell it, I was reluctant to throw it away, so I had to hide it at home, but I didn't expect it to be searched out by me in the end. ”

"I see, does this pill help your injuries?" Fang Ming wondered, could this Qi Pill bring 190 energy points to himself, and couldn't treat Xu Tianba's internal injuries?

"It's useless, this time the Qi Pill can only restore the internal force, if the medicinal power is sufficient, I can still use the medicinal strength to heal the injury, but now, the medicinal power cannot be absorbed, and it is useless for my injury. ”

"Then how did Xu Tianpeng and Xu Tianliang join this black cottage?"

"These two people used to serve in the rebel army with me, but they defected last autumn, saying that they had offended Captain Zhang, and they couldn't get along in Erlong Mountain, so they insisted on joining the Black Mountain Village and begged me to take them in. I didn't want to take them in, but they were so numerous that I was wounded and couldn't fight for a long time, and I was afraid that my brothers would suffer in the event of a conflict, so I let them do nothing. ”

"When I interrogated them, Xu Tianliang said that he deliberately changed his name to win your favor, it seems that this guy is not a good bird in the first place, so he simply killed something, etc..."

According to common sense, you have to find someone who is stronger than you when you take refuge, but these two brothers are good, they have to join a cottage that is weaker than themselves, there is no wind and no waves, and they are either traitors or thieves.

These two people stick to Xu Tianba, there must be some ulterior motives.

"I don't have any treasures here, except for this bottle of elixir." Xu Tianba thought seriously for a moment, but couldn't think of a reason.

"Tianba, this medicine has no medicinal power, is it only you who know?"

"Yes, I searched it out alone, and I didn't tell my men. ”

"These two people used to follow Captain Zhang, why did they leave suddenly?"

"I heard the two of them say that it seems that Zhang Lelong and his eldest brother Zhang Wenlong had a conflict, often shouting and shouting and killing, and the two of them were afraid that something would happen, so they sneaked away. ”

"This is also said in the past, what happened to the landlord you robbed?"

"I heard that someone killed someone. ”

"It seems that it must be because of this elixir, these two people are all lies, it must be that Zhang Lelong learned from the landlord that you have the pill in your hand, but he thought it was genuine, and he didn't dare to move, afraid that you would throw a rat trap and destroy or hide the pill, so I sent these two people over to see if they could take the sheep and take it for themselves, but you have not been out of the village, and the two brothers have no chance to start. They are out all day long robbing houses, and they are afraid that they have the intention of forcing you out of the village. ”

"What, how could he possibly know. These two rabbit cubs, I went to slaughter Xu Tianliang. Xu Tianba roared, he had been deceived for a year, fortunately he usually didn't go out of the village, otherwise he would have let these two boys succeed.

"Slow, this matter is not in a hurry, has this Lelong also become a bandit and a bandit?"

"Yes, I heard before I came here that Zhang Lelong followed his eldest brother and entrenched on a mountain 400 miles away in the northeast, and changed the name of the mountain to Erlong Mountain, with hundreds of men and horses. ”

"Then Xu Tianliang can't be killed, otherwise if Zhang Lelong raises troops to attack, we won't be able to deal with it, so it's better to be a bait and slowly lure them into the bait. ”

"What does the lord mean?"

"Do any of your men know how to make bows?" After pondering for a while, Fang Ming thought of a way to win more with less, the English longbow.

Compared with other ancient bows and arrows, the English longbow has the advantages of fast rate of fire, long range, and strong penetration, but the disadvantages are also obvious, because the back of the bow is too long, and the attack can only be used in the form of projectiles, and the user must have a strong physique and tall figure, otherwise long-term training and combat will cause serious damage to themselves.

This is not a problem at all for this world, as long as the force value of the archer is above 50, the strength can reach 500 catties, and the body's bearing capacity is also greatly enhanced, plus the advantage of height, a little stronger ordinary people, after awakening, strength, physique, and toughness just meet all the requirements, and they are simply born to be the production place of longbowmen.

In the past, energy points could only be obtained by cultivation alone, and there was no condition to allow Fang Mingchao to consider this aspect, but now with the elixir, everything has become simpler.

"There are two people who have worked in the equipment workshop, and they should be able to make bows, and their skills are definitely not bad. Xu Tianba lowered his head and thought for a while, going through the backgrounds of his subordinates in his mind before answering Fang Ming's question.

"Okay, tomorrow morning, call them over, I'm going to make a secret weapon. ”

"Whoa!"

"Next, we're so. So..."

......

戌時, the mountain pass below the Black Mountain Village.

"Three masters, what should we do now?" a minion asked Xu Tianliang.

It turned out that half an hour ago, a group of 21 of them, was called by Fang Ming to the cottage to give a lecture, the other party said a lot of rules, Xu Tianliang read few books, he didn't understand a few sentences at all, and he understood the last few sentences, which means that God has the virtue of a good life, today he Fang Ming didn't want to kill, so he gave ten taels of silver, twenty catties of coarse grain and three days of dry food, and let them go, hoping that he and others could reform themselves and be new people.

"What else can I do, go to the big boss, come back to take revenge after tidying up the soldiers and horses, grandma's, this year has been done in vain, not only did not have any harvest, but also took the life of the second child, and the loss was great. Xu Tianliang took a sip.

"Brother Liang, come back!" The other minion remembered the ruthlessness of Fang Ming and the others, and suddenly turned pale and said in a trembling voice.

"Did the things in your crotch be cut? Afraid of a ball, why didn't you find out that your kid was so timid before, and the big boss was strong and strong, and I was afraid that these few people would not succeed, so I would just draw some soldiers and horses to destroy the surname Fang. ”

"Yes, yes, Brother Liang is wise. ”

"Damn, they've all left the Black Mountain Village, and they're still called Brother Liang. ”

"Stupid, I should call him Brother Tiger now. Say yes, Brother Tiger. The other junior brother rolled his eyes and remembered Xu Tianliang's previous name.

"That's just like the words. After arriving at Erlong Mountain, my mouth was closed tightly, it was a matter of everyone's life, no one should make irresponsible remarks, if I let me know who has a lot of mouths, then don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings. Xu Tianliang said coldly.

"Don't worry Brother Tiger, the brothers are all bright, and they are still pointing to the people who are eating and drinking spicy food with you, how can you act like this, you see, if anyone dares to talk more, I will be the first to tear him. ”

"Well, that's right! Let's go, go back to Erlong Mountain. ”

A group of people ran towards the northeast.

......

The next day (September 20th), Mao Shi

"Lord, it's the two of them, Xu Wei and Gao Kuo. Xu Tianba brought people over, the two of them had big shoulders and round waists, dark skin, the taller one was Xu Wei, and the lower one was tall and broad.

"See the lord!" the two saluted.

Last night, Xu Tianba had already brought 22 brothers to visit Fang Ming and recognize him as the Lord.

"Arise, and call you unto you, to make a sharp weapon, and I call its longbow. How skilled are you two at making bows and arrows?"

"My lord, my two brothers have been working in the instrument workshop for many years, and all kinds of bows that have passed through our hands are not a thousand, but also eight hundred, and they have never made the slightest mistake, please rest assured that my lordship has made any mistakes. ”

"Okay, this time I found a treasure, Tianba is really my blessing. Fang Ming praised Xu Tianba.

The latter smiled when he heard this, saying that this was what a courtier should do.

"Do you two know that there is resilient and hardness wood near this cottage?"

"Lord, if you want to make a bow, you should choose mulberry wood, oak wood, and other wood with good elasticity, why do you still need to be hard?" Xu Wei was puzzled, does the lord want to make a bow? But what do you need hardwood for.

"This bow is special, the wood not only needs to be elastic, but also needs a certain hardness, otherwise, it is no different from an ordinary composite bow. Fang Ming said with a smile.

The general situation of bows and arrows in this world, I have already learned in detail through Ang Lee.

Because people's physical fitness is much stronger than that of the earth, the archers in the Great Chu army have been trained for a long time, and their arm strength can be maintained at about 250 catties for a long time, using ordinary compound bows and recurve bows (bow length 1.2 meters, arrow length 0.6 meters), and the effective killing range has reached 150 meters, which is comparable to the heavy crossbow in ancient China.

And some special troops are even more terrifying, such as the elite archers of the Huns, all of whom are composed of the most heroic warriors in the tribe, each force value is about 50, and the hand is a high-grade strong bow, a spirit bone bow, the pulling force can reach 450 catties, and with the high-speed moving war horse, the effective killing range has reached 280 meters, which has a great advantage in range and rate of fire, and often presses the Dachu soldiers out of breath.

"I see, if you need a harder wood, there is a kind of golden fir wood on the back mountain, we have tried it before, and it should meet the requirements of the lord. Gao Kuo thought for a while and put forward his opinion.

"Okay, you two sit down cross-legged first, and then improve your strength first. Fang Ming nodded, it's good to have wood, so that you can make a longbow.
