"Congratulations to Your Majesty, you have another peerless weapon!" Li Jingxi is in the shape of the color road.

Li Shimin also laughed, the divine arm crossbow is really long-range, it is really an unexpected joy, all along, the infantry is mostly passively beaten in the face of cavalry, that is, there are large bed crossbows that can attack the cavalry, but the cost is expensive, the number is small, although the attack power is strong, but it is not easy to manufacture, naturally its lethality is limited.

Merton's Divine Arm Crossbow is simple to operate, easy to carry, and more importantly, its power is not inferior to that of a bed crossbow, even if it is an ordinary soldier, holding this Divine Arm Crossbow, it is enough to threaten a battle-hardened general.

"Can this crossbow be made on a large scale?" Li Shimin's eyes sharpened, and he asked in a condensed voice.

Merton nodded and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, although this crossbow adopts the technique of the Mo family's mechanism, it is much more complicated than other bows and crossbows, but the kid divides it into several parts, and the main part can be completed by ordinary craftsmen, and skilled craftsmen only need to make crossbow machine mechanisms, so that a large number of divine arm crossbows can be assembled in a short time, and once there are parts damaged, they can be easily replaced and repaired, if it is a skilled crossbowman, if the crossbow machine is damaged on the battlefield, it will definitely be repaired within thirty breaths." ”

"Thirty breaths are repaired!"

Li Shimin was immediately overjoyed, ordinary bows and crossbows are usually integrated, once the entire bow and crossbow is damaged, it will be scrapped immediately, and it is time-consuming and laborious to repair, and the component of the divine arm crossbow can be repaired on the battlefield, and the military value of it is simply incalculable.

"Your Majesty, this crossbow has a lot to do with it, and I ask Your Majesty to hand it over to the Weapons Supervisor to build it so that it can be completed." Hou Junji said suddenly.

He is the secretary of the military department, and the weapons supervisor is under his rule, and he can naturally see with his eyes that the value of the divine arm crossbow naturally wants to take the credit under his own rule.

"Merton, what do you think?" Li Shimin looked at Merton playfully and asked.

Mo Dun suddenly said without hesitation: "What Hou Shangshu said is very true, the workshop of Mojia Village is for civilian use, so naturally it cannot make forbidden things such as bows and crossbows, and it should be handed over to the ordnance supervisor to make them." ”

Hou Junji's face suddenly turned happy, he didn't expect that the Mo family, who had always been a thorn, would cooperate so much, and even Li Shimin couldn't help but show a satisfied smile.

"Still." Merton paused, and Hou Junji suddenly had a bad feeling.

"However, the reason why the Divine Arm Crossbow can shoot so far is that the mechanism is one of them, and the more important thing is to make the bowstring steel!" Merton continued.

"The steel that makes the bowstring!" Hou Junji frowned.

"Yes, everyone, please see, the bowstring of the Divine Arm Crossbow is not a hemp rope silk thread cow tendon, but a kind of soft steel created by the Mo family, which will have such great power." Merton took the Divine Arm Crossbow from Li Shimin's hand and handed it to Hou Junji's hand.

Only then did Hou Junji realize that the bowstring of the Divine Arm Crossbow was not a commonly used bowstring, but a cold steel string, and his heart suddenly dawned, this is probably the reason why the Divine Arm Crossbow is so powerful.

"I believe that the refining of soft steel will definitely be able to solve it, but I don't know if Lord Mo is willing to cut the secret technique of steelmaking." Hou Junji turned his head to Mo Dun and said coldly, he actually got the mechanism of the Divine Arm Crossbow, and he even wanted the Mo family's steelmaking secret technique.

The secret technique of steelmaking is the foundation of the strength of the Mo family, and everyone knows that the policy formulated by Mo Dun for the Mo family village is based on steel, and Hou Junji's request can be described as extremely rude.

Li Shimin and Li Jing's expressions moved, but they did not stop it, although Hou Junji's request was excessive, but after all, this involved national interests.

Merton sneered: "The secret techniques of steelmaking have appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the secret methods of steelmaking include the method of frying steel, filling steel, and the method of 100 steelmaking. The kid can be said to be exact, that is, the kid put the steelmaking secret technique in front of the general, and without the Mo family's steelmaking furnace, the supervisor will not be able to make soft steel, if the prisoner will rebuild the steelmaking furnace to make the god arm crossbow, I am afraid that the battle of Tuyuhun has ended. ”

After the development of steelmaking technology to the level of steelmaking furnace, it is no longer easy to solve it with traditional craftsmanship, among which large-scale equipment plays a vital role, and even some precision equipment itself is a kind of secret technology, and it is almost impossible to rely on a paper secret recipe in the steelmaking industry in the era of a single secret recipe.

Hou Junji's face was suddenly embarrassed, and his eyes were unkind to Mo Dun.

Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said: "The crossbow machine and steel string of the Divine Arm Crossbow will be handed over to Mojia Village for production, and the crossbow frame will be made as a supervisor, and finally the Divine Arm Crossbow will be formed by the Ordnance Supervisor." ”

Now that the attack on Tuyuhun is imminent, it is the time when the Divine Arm Crossbow is needed, and the most urgent task now is to make as many Divine Arm Crossbows as possible, and the tripartite division of labor is currently in the best interests of Datang.

"Yes!"

Merton and Hou Junji answered at the same time.

Li Shimin raised the Divine Arm Crossbow again, looked at it and nodded with satisfaction, this crossbow and the Macedonian phalanx will definitely be able to solve the safety of the grain road, and at the same time said with a little regret in his heart: "I originally thought that I could find a way to restrain the cavalry, but it seems that I was too anxious." ”

Hou Junji glanced at Mo Dun, and said with an unkind face: "Your Majesty, how can two legs run over four legs, and only the cavalry can defeat the cavalry." ”

"No!" Li Jing shook his head and said: "Although the Macedonian policy has many flaws, it has found a way to restrain the cavalry. ”

Li Shimin's heart moved and said: "Spear! ”

Li Jing shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be a spear, as long as it's a long weapon, it will naturally have an advantage against cavalry." ”

The Macedonian phalanx infinitely magnified the advantages of long weapons, so that everyone found that in front of the long weapons like hedgehogs, even the most elite cavalry would probably be knocked to the head and bleeding.

Merton nodded approvingly, and said, "What General Li said is very true, long weapons are indeed a way to restrain cavalry,"

Li Shimin nodded and said: "It's a pity that this phalanx can only be defended, and my Datang still lacks a weapon that can resist cavalry in the field." ”

Merton smiled mysteriously and said: "This is wrong, from the perspective of Weichen, my Datang has a powerful long weapon that is in the pearl dust, if this weapon comes out, it will be unstoppable, and a knife will go down, and people and horses will be shattered." ”

"Unstoppable? Broken people. Li Shimin's eyes widened suddenly, he racked his brains and couldn't imagine that Datang would have such a powerful weapon.

The generals present were also moved, and instantly thought of Datang in their hearts, but they still had no clue.

"Isn't that what you're talking about?" Li Jing's expression moved.

"Yes, from a boy's point of view, the weapon that really restrains the cavalry is none other than the Mo Knife." Merton nodded.
