Chapter 56: I Want Some Soup

The next afternoon.

Ji Fu led a team of people and horses with Lao Zhao to appear outside the gate of Zhang's mansion.

Lao Zhao directly led Jifu to the main building to see Zhang Yuan.

"Your kid's place to live is better than the old man's small courtyard outside Chang'an City, I don't know how much."

As soon as he came up, Ji Fu didn't ask about the three-bow bed crossbow, and he thought that he had asked everything he should have asked on the way.

Looking at Ji Fu's eyes when he looked at his home, Zhang Yuan hurriedly pulled Ji Fu to the front living room.

"Mr. Jifu is really joking, what is the country land."

Ji Fu glanced at Zhang Yuan and said.

"Can the royal gardens also be said to be a country land?"

Zhang Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to this old thief, glared at Lao Zhao and said.

"Didn't you tell you that your distinguished guests should be arranged in the living room?

How can a person come to the main building? ”

Jifu appeared directly in front of Zhang Yuan, which made Zhang Yuan still very uncomfortable, and there were not many people at home, so that Lao Zhao forgot some rules.

If you are doing something that is not human, it is not a secret to bring people in directly.

Lao Zhao realized that something was wrong at this time.

Jifu is not Chu Da or Li Jian, this person, including Tian Wei, may become Zhang Yuan's enemy in the future.

"It's all villains who are bad, and if they lose the rules, the villain should be punished."

"Go down and bring someone to prepare the three-bow bed crossbow, and let Mr. Jifu watch it later."

"Well, the villain will go down and do it."

reprimanded Lao Zhao in front of Ji Fu, but Ji Fu was a little unhappy.

"You kid think the old man is an outsider? Or do you want to get more benefits for something you have to wait for?

Or both? ”

Ji Fu saw his original intention, and Zhang Yuan didn't blush.

Although it must be both, you can't say that, can you?

"Naturally, I want to ask for more things, and it's not easy to get a good thing.

If the prince eats meat, he also wants the people below to drink some soup, right? ”

In fact, people like Tian Wei Jifu are not afraid of those who are excessively demanding, and they are afraid of people who are selfless and don't think about themselves in anything.

"If it really has the effect that your housekeeper said, the prince will naturally meet your boy's conditions, but you don't want to become a fat man in one bite."

Zhang Yuan smiled and nodded, and then stretched out his hand to signal for Ji Fu to move out and watch.

"The boys naturally know how to do it, they should be ready, sir go out with me to have a look."

There was nothing surprising about the three-bow bed crossbow on the surface, but the only thing that was the three bows and the arrow that looked thicker than a spear on the bowstring.

"It looks really extraordinary, but I just don't know if such a long and thick arrow can fly five hundred feet."

Ji Fu looked at the three-bow bed crossbow and gave his opinion.

Yesterday I didn't shoot 500 zhang away, and there are more people today than yesterday, and 500 zhang is definitely no problem.

"Mr. Jifu, borrow your guards."

Ji Fu nodded, not minding Zhang Yuan's words.

With ten more guards, plus the fifty strong men from yesterday, we can finally pull the bed crossbow to the brim today.

After cutting the tow rope, there were several more sounds of breaking the air, and the arrow disappeared with a whizz.

"So fast! It's far away! ”

Jifu let out an exclamation.

"Sir, you can send someone to see how far it goes."

Zhang Yuan is very confident now, and the effect is much better than yesterday.

Ji Fu didn't say anything, waved his hand and asked the guards who had just pulled the rope to measure the distance, this kind of thing that needs to be treated strictly naturally has to be done by himself, and the data obtained is real.

"These three-bow bed crossbows must require too much manpower, right?"

When the guards went to measure the distance, Ji Fu was not idle, and revealed the weakness of the three-bow bed crossbow in one bite.

Now the Han doesn't even know how many cattle are lacking to cultivate the land, let alone get a bunch of cattle to go to the battlefield.

Zhangfu can only slaughter a cow on the day of the sacrifice every year, and only during that time can you eat beef.

Therefore, the three-bow bed crossbow can only be controlled by human power.

"There is no other way, who makes me have more Han people than cattle?

According to me, fighting a war is the business of professional soldiers, and those slave troops do not play much role in the first place.

Let them deal with the Huns is simply to die in vain, it is better to let them control these bed crossbows in the rear.

In this way, more Huns were killed than they were on the battlefield. ”

Regarding Zhang Yuan's opinion, Jifu only agreed with half of it.

"The lives of those people are not as good as those of the Han armor soldiers, and being able to waste some of the strength of the Huns also played their role.

However, your three-bow bed crossbow will not be of much use on the battlefield. ”

The bed crossbow, like the cannon, can only play its greatest role in positional warfare.

Jifu saw the points very well, Zhang Yuan didn't bother to refute anything, he couldn't tell Jifu now that Liu Che would use a trick to let the Huns attack the city next year.

"As long as the distance is far enough, when the Huns charge, two rounds of salvo can also take the lives of many Huns."

Now it's just a measure of distance, not power.

It wasn't until Liu Chetian and the others saw the power of the three-bow bed crossbow that they were able to completely change their views on the weapons of war.

Think about it, if you can have a thousand three-bow bed crossbows, when the Huns charge, come with two volleys, and if you are lucky, you may be able to take the lives of thousands or even tens of thousands of Huns.

Although this is just Zhang Yuan's imagination, but if he strives to realize his imagination, won't it become a reality?

If it can really play such a big role, Zhang Yuanfeng Marquis will not be a problem at all.

The small talk soon passed, and Jifu's guards returned.

"Sir, the arrow in the middle flew six hundred and fifty feet."

After listening to this, Ji Fu's face changed.

After he heard about it from Lao Zhao at the beginning, he didn't really believe it in his heart.

It's all an old slave boasting about his master's exploits.

But now that the facts are in front of him, he can only force himself to accept all this.

"Call everyone back, and we'll go back to Chang'an with these three three-bow bed crossbows now."

"Sir, don't you look at the distance of those arrows anymore?"

Ji Fu shook his head.

"No, that's enough for now."

Seeing that he could make Jifu unstable, Zhang Yuancai felt from the bottom of his heart that this matter was done.

"Sir, I will go with you to Chang'an to see the prince, and then follow the prince to see Your Majesty."

Ji Fu glanced at Zhang Yuan, nodded, and agreed.

Zhang Yuan wanted to be transferred out of the Tingwei Mansion, so he could only let Liu Che loosen his mouth.
