The craftsman's workshop, located in the east of Xiangping City, was established by Lu Bu with a huge amount of money.

The craftsman's workshop has a large number of skilled carpenters and blacksmiths in Liaodong, Xuansu, Lelang and Wenjun, which are used by soldiers in the war to study or produce weapons and siege equipment.

This place is heavily guarded, except for the carpenters and blacksmiths who work inside, no one can enter it without Lu Bu's order!

If an outlaw wants to peep or sneak into the craftsman's workshop, he will be beheaded directly by the guards guarding the craftsman's workshop.

On this day, Lu Bu got up from the gentle township, and then beckoned Zhou Cang and other personal soldiers, and under their protection, braved the wind and snow to come to the craftsman's workshop in the east of Xiangping City.

Because, a killing weapon developed by Lu Bu had been developed by a craftsman in the craftsman's workshop, so Lu Bu naturally wanted to go and see if the power of the killing weapon was to his liking.

When he came to the craftsman's workshop and got the news that Lu Bu would come, Li Tie, who had been waiting at the gate of the craftsman's workshop to manage the craftsman's workshop, and Liu Dahu, the captain of the guard of the craftsman's workshop, immediately walked over, greeted Lu Bu respectfully, and then took Lu Bu and others into the craftsman's workshop.

Li Tie, a blacksmith in the family who had been engaged in blacksmithing for several generations in Liaodong, saw that he was skilled in making weapons and siege equipment, and that he could read and write hyphenations, so Lü Bu appointed him to manage the craftsman's workshop.

As for Liu Dahu, he was originally Lu Bu's personal soldier, and when he was protecting Lu Bu on the way to Goguryeo, he was shot in the right leg by the enemy's sharp arrow, resulting in inconvenient legs and feet now, and he is no longer suitable as Lu Bu's personal soldier.

Lu Bu saw that he was loyal to him, and he couldn't bear to give him a generous pension, so he returned to his hometown depressed, and then spent an ordinary life.

On the battlefield, or at other times, you don't need him to protect yourself because of his inconvenient legs, but you need him behind the scenes! He can do something else for himself behind the scenes!

Of course, it can also let him play to his strengths, not sink because of his inconvenient legs and feet, and let him restore his self-confidence!

Therefore, Lü Bu transferred him out, made him a military commander, and asked him to lead some soldiers to guard the work of the craftsman's workshop from then on.

The craftsman's workshop is Lu Bu's top priority, and Liu Dahu, as the captain of the craftsman's workshop, can be said to be a powerful figure, and Lu Bu's love for him makes Liu Dahu more loyal to Lu Bu.

Liu Dahu swore in his heart that although his legs and feet are inconvenient now, he dares to fight and fight, and he must lead the guards to protect the craftsman's workshop, so that the secret of the craftsman's workshop will not be taken advantage of by the enemy, and then leaked out.

Because Liu Dahu is serious about his work, he has killed many criminals who want to peep or sneak into the craftsman's workshop to make waves.

Let Lu Bu know that he is extremely satisfied, Liu Dahu will not waste his love for him!

At the same time, Lu Bu's love for Liu Dahu, who had inconvenient legs and feet, moved Zhou Cang and other three hundred soldiers, and felt that they did not follow the wrong person!

Lu Bu, this is an existence that allows them to protect him with their own lives!

Entering the craftsman's workshop, hundreds of skilled carpenters or blacksmiths are hammering and hammering inside, producing or developing weapons and siege equipment for Lu Bu.

At this time, Li Tie brought a repeater and handed it to Lu Bu, and asked Lu Bu to try the power of the repeater.

This repeating crossbow was developed by Lu Bu according to the principle of Zhuge crossbow made by Zhuge Liang in history, and asked Li Tie and them to develop it.

Lu Bu touched the repeater in his hand, then aimed at a target not far away, and fired ten crossbow arrows that had already been loaded in the repeater.

Although the crossbow can't shoot too far and the accuracy is not high, it also makes Lu Bu very satisfied.

Live up to Lu Bu's huge investment in building a craftsman's workshop, so that the craftsmen in the craftsman's workshop can eat and drink well, and there is a lot of salary to get every month!

Li Tie and the crossbows they developed satisfied Lu Bu, so Lu Bu prepared to ask the craftsmen in the craftsman's workshop to make 10,000 repeater crossbows, and prepare to equip 10,000 wolf riders.

Although the repeater has many shortcomings, what Lu Bu values is that the repeater can fire ten crossbow arrows one after another.

If on the battlefield 10,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry and the enemy's cavalry are in short contact, as long as the Bingzhou wolf cavalry people shoot out the ten crossbow arrows they brought to the enemy cavalry first, so many crossbow arrows are fired together, there will definitely be many enemy cavalry who are shot by crossbow arrows, equipped with crossbows, plus relying on the saddle, stirrups, horseshoes, and the combat effectiveness of the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, which can be described as the enemy's nightmare!

In short, a repeater that can fire ten crossbow arrows in succession on the battlefield is better than a bow and arrow!

Li Tie naturally had no objection to Lu Bu's orders, so he rushed to make the 10,000 repeating crossbows that Lu Bu needed with the craftsmen in the craftsman's workshop.

Half a month later, the craftsmen in the craftsman's workshop handed over 10,000 crossbows to Lu Bu's hands, which made Lu Bu extremely satisfied, and the craftsmen and guards in the craftsman's workshop were all rewarded with a gold, which made them excited and very grateful to Lu Bu for his kindness!

Then, Lu Bu divided the 10,000 repeater crossbows among the 10,000 wolf riders he personally commanded, ensuring that everyone had a repeater with him.

The operation of the repeater is very simple, as long as you load the crossbow arrows first, and then fire them at the enemy, there is no technical content to speak of.

Let the 10,000 wolf riders in Bingzhou each be equipped with a repeating crossbow, Lu Bu is free, so he naturally leads them to practice in full swing.

At that time, they can also give full play to the combat effectiveness of the wolf cavalry in the state, and kill the enemy cavalry by surprise, which will make them frightened!

In this way, while training 10,000 wolf riders in the state, Lu Bu did the government affairs that needed to be done by himself in the four counties, and accompanied the family at the same time, and there was no war, so that Lu Bu spent a long time in peace and happiness.

Time flies, and with the passage of three years of Jian'an, a new year is ushered in, and four years of Jian'an are ushered in.

In this quite a long time, Cao Cao's edict to canonize Lu Bu as the pastor of Youzhou and the general of the expedition to the west has also been sent to Liaodong by the angels in the imperial court and handed over to Lu Bu.

Regarding Cao Cao's sudden canonization of himself in the name of the Son of Heaven, Lu Bu suddenly sneered disdainfully.

With Lu Bu's IQ, he naturally knew what the hell Cao Cao was thinking, didn't he just want to attract Yuan Shao's attention by himself, and then lead the war from the Central Plains to Liaodong, so that Cao Cao would not have to directly face Yuan Shao's army to the south.

If Cao Cao didn't make these small moves, Lu Bu might still cooperate with Cao Cao, first clean up the Wuhuan entrenched in Liaoxi County and Liaodong vassal states, and then fight with him against the powerful Yuan Shao, but now that Cao Cao wants to bring disaster to the east, how could Lu Bu stupidly agree.

Besides, Lu Bu still has to wait for the opportunity to move when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are fighting, instead of attracting the powerful Yuan Shao army now, the two of them are fighting to the death, and let Cao Cao, who is fighting soy sauce on the side, take advantage.

The battlefield can only be above Guandu. The protagonists of the battle of Guandu can only be Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Even if Lü Bu wants to join, it can only be as the development of history, and when Cao Cao uses the trick of betraying Yuan Shao to burn Yuan Shao's grain in Wuchao, Yuan Shao's army without food will definitely be disheartened, and then it will be defeated by Cao Cao's army in one fell swoop, and then it will be the beginning of Lü Bu's westward expedition led by him.

Take advantage of the chaos to seize the entire Youzhou, and then wait for the opportunity to go south and occupy more territory that originally belonged to Yuan Shao.

So, Lu Bu directly sent a message to all parts of the world, saying that Cao Cao detained the Son of Heaven and acted in the name of the Son of Heaven, therefore, Lu Bu directly rejected the post of Youzhou Mu and General of Zhengxi with a tough attitude, and said that he was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, not subject to the canonization of Cao Cao, a traitor, and would not be in the company of the traitor, and one day he would slash Cao Cao, a traitor, and rescue the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty who was used as a puppet by Cao Cao.
