Several iron cages covered with black cloth were dragged in, several cavalry rode horses nearby, and in the distance, more than a dozen crossbowmen of the divine crossbow were finally inspecting the crossbow machine, this kind of crossbow machine is installed with a base, the crossbow machine can move left and right and up and down, this kind of divine crossbow Gao Yuan likes it very much, it has no dead angle when shooting, and the shooting angle can be adjusted in the process of shooting, and the ability to fire continuously reminds Gao Yuan of the machine gun in his previous life.

Seeing that the inspection below had been completed, and they were ready to fight, several cavalrymen on the opposite side stretched out their spears and picked up the black cloth on those iron cages, which actually contained more than a dozen wild wolves of all sizes and sizes, and as soon as the black cloth was gone, these wild wolves immediately shrugged up, grinning at the few cavalrymen in front of them, and let out a low roar in their throats.

"It's really not easy to catch so many wild wolves in Dayan County now." Gao Yuan smiled at Gu Wang and said: "The cavalry ran for several days, and they scattered a huge circle to catch so many dozens. ”

"Are they going to be targets?" Wang Jian asked.

"Well, the general will wait and see!" Gao Yuan said with a smile.

In the distance, several cavalry horses rushed to this side, holding a thin rope in their hands, and with a crisp sound, the front railings of several iron cages fell down in unison, and the wild wolves inside roared out and chased after a few cavalrymen.

Immediately, the cavalry roared, teasing the wild wolves to chase them, and after running for dozens of meters, they suddenly turned around and turned to the side, but a dozen wild wolves were already exposed to the range of the divine crossbow before they could turn around.

The sound of the graft immediately sounded, and one after another the crossbow arrows were controlled by the crossbowmen, shooting at those wild wolves, and in an instant, there was a wailing burst, and seven or eight wild wolves immediately fell to the ground. The few were lucky enough to avoid the previous blow and turned to flee to the other side, but the Divine Crossbow nimbly turned its head and shot after their butts, and after shooting several arrows, finally shot them one by one in the clearing.

"Good fellows." Wang Jian looked at the speed and flexibility of the Divine Crossbow. couldn't help but change color, "With this weapon in hand, the cavalry is afraid that it will become history." At this time, in his mind, he was thinking about the overwhelming cavalry of the black-clothed food, if this kind of magic crossbow was arranged on the defensive front, no matter how many cavalry came, they could only hold a grudge in front of the battle.

"Not really." Gao Yuan shook his head slightly and said, "This thing is powerful, but it costs too much to build, and there are too many parts that make up him." Too delicate, very easy to damage, unless it is a lot of money to press, otherwise large-scale equipment, not very realistic, just maintenance, repair, is not a small amount every year. ”

Wang Jian took a deep breath. "King, this kind of magic crossbow. Is it one of the weapons we can buy? ”

"Of course it is, but General, if you want to buy this kind of weapon, I'm afraid we will have to send some technicians to help you repair it, and the parts you need will have to be transported from Dahan, which is not cheap."

"Can your technician teach you the techniques of repair?" Wang Jian then asked.

"Of course there is no problem. Can be taught. "Gao Yuan said cheerfully.

"That's okay, I'll buy this magic crossbow, it's good to buy a thousand in the first batch." Wang Jian stretched out a finger.

"A thousand?" Gao Yuan was also taken aback, "General." As I said before, this thing is delicate, too much is not good for the army, besides, now our arsenal can't produce a thousand units a year, the first batch, I will give you a maximum of 100 units, and at the same time send two technicians over, one is to facilitate maintenance, and the other is to teach maintenance techniques. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Jian was overjoyed. "But I also heard that the Great Han has a weapon that uses gunpowder, which is very powerful, and Wang Jian doesn't expect to be able to buy this kind of weapon, but can the Great King let Wang Jian open his eyes?"

"Why not? Moreover, this weapon is also in the list of weapons that General Wang can buy. Gao Yuan said with a smile: "The gunpowder weapon was originally developed by my Han, in order to get this, our researchers paid a huge sacrifice, and then Qin and Chu used some disgraceful means to steal this achievement, but the thief is just a thief after all, in the development of this weapon, they are still far behind us." Gao Quan! ”

Gao Quan came up with a plate in his own hand, and two round things were placed on the plate. Wang Jian stretched out his hand to pick up one, his hand sank slightly, this thing was actually made of iron, looking at the pattern of the petals, it was actually quite beautiful.

Gao Yuan also picked up one, "This thing is called a grenade, and we have set up a special team, called the Grenadier, to throw this." The tail of this grenade is a fire rope, and when fighting, this fire rope is ignited, and then thrown into the enemy's bushes, and it explodes into the sky with a bang, no matter how thick the armor he wears, he can't stop this explosion. ”

"So powerful?" Wang Jian has been away from the Central Plains for a few years, and he really doesn't know much about this thing.

"Pick up General Wang to watch." Gao Quan smiled and retreated, and a moment later, the experimental field in the distance was filled with straw men in armor, and several grenadiers were moving their bodies there.

"Let's go!" With an order, the grenade's fuse was ignited, and several grenades were accurately thrown into the scarecrow by the grenadiers.

The scarecrow that had been blown up by the grenade was quickly presented, and unlike the straw men who had been hit by the arrow before, the appearance of these straw men in armor was much more miserable, basically either missing arms or legs, the worst one, the lower half of the body was missing, and the remaining torso was also embedded with shrapnel.

"What a grenade." Wang Jian Huo Ran stood up and looked at the two grenades in the tray in front of him, "I understand, these patterns are not for good looks, but because when the gunpowder explodes, these patterns can be used as boundaries to divide them into iron pieces to hurt people." ”

"The general is really smart, you can see it at a glance." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"Can we buy this grenade?"

"Why not? What I'm showing you today is all you can buy, and it's also a good thing for me to press the bottom of the box. Of course, there is another good thing below, but our technology is not yet mature, and we can't supply it on a large scale, so we can only provide it in small quantities. Gao Yuan smiled.

"And a more powerful weapon than a grenade?" Wang Jian was really a little surprised.

"Of course there is, but the number is very small, if it weren't for the fact that the enemy that General Wang faced was really tricky, I would really be reluctant." High and far-reaching.

"That black-clothed eater, so powerful?"

"What's even more powerful is the religion they profes." Gao Yuan sighed, "This kind of religious belief can make people crazy, General Wang, the reason why I am willing to sell you these weapons is because I hope that you can keep them out of the territory and never let them set foot in the land of my great Han." This is also my selfishness! ”

Wang Jian nodded, "I understand, but they are still far from the king, but now they have come to me, whether the king sells these weapons or not, I will fight them to the end." ”

Gao Yuan nodded, "Okay, then let's take a look at this thing, but this thing is too cumbersome and can only be used to defend the city, but it is impossible to fight with the army." ”

Four horses dragged the carriage slowly, Wang Jian saw that the wheels of the carriage left a deep mark on the ground, the wheels of the carriage of the Han Dynasty were wrapped with what they called rubber, the elasticity is excellent, Wang Jian has been sitting on this kind of carriage since Mengchi to Dayan County, on the cement road, almost no bumps, but now when he sees the marks, he knows how heavy the things dragged on the cart.

The felt cloth on the carriage was removed, and two swarthy metal bumps appeared in front of Wang Jian.

"We call this weapon a cannon, and it's powered by gunpowder, but the range and destructive power are not comparable to that of a bow and a grenade." Gao Yuan introduced.

Wang Jian's breathing was a little short, and the grenade was already shocking to him, he couldn't imagine that there was a more powerful weapon in this world than the grenade.

"Gao Quan, what kind of project is performing for us today?"

"King, today there are three main types of projectiles, one is a solid bullet, which is used to attack the city and break the wall, one is a scattered projectile, which is used to kill and injure foot soldiers, and the other is a chain bullet."

"Let's get started!" Gao Yuan waved his hand.

A few miles away from the observation platform, there was already a building built with earth and stone in the shape of a city wall, two cannons were unloaded, and more than a dozen gunners were busy around them, and after a while, the gunner raised his head and looked at Gao Quan: "Report to your lord, everything is ready." ”

On the stage, Gao Yuan handed a few balls of cotton to Wang Jian, and he also took two balls and stuffed them into his ears.

A cloud of smoke rose up, hiding the entire cannon and the members of the artillery crew, the strong smell of gunpowder smoke came to the nose, the smoke dissipated, and the two artillery crew members cheered in unison, today they fought accurately, after the two cannons, the building that looked like the city wall on the opposite side no longer existed.

Next, the scattering of bullets, the killing of the chain bullets to the foot soldiers, made Wang Jian even more stunned, the straw man wearing armor could hardly find a complete one, and completely turned into a fragmented subsection.

"Artifact!" For such a weapon, Wang Jian can only give such an evaluation.

"It's not an artifact." Gao Yuan shook his head, "We can't mass-produce this thing now, these two statues are not sold to you, but given away." It is used to defend the city, and it should be the only weapon. Don't worry, general, we will also prepare enough ammunition for this cannon. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Jian stood up and slammed his fists deep into the ground. (To be continued......)
