"Yes, yes, general, we have a lot of male soldiers, a lot of strength, let the female soldiers pull the cart, isn't it a joke! General, I'll come, Xiaohu will pull the cart. Fat Tiger said repeatedly.

"Why are you coming, I can't come!" Erniu said dissatisfied.

Mo Chen thought about it, and asked the female soldier to take the food, the picture was really unbearable to look at directly, and his old face didn't know where to put it when the time came, so he said: "Okay, don't fight, let Xiong Da go with me!" Anyway, Xiong Da was originally from the Qin Kingdom, so let them take this opportunity to go home and have a look. ”

"General Xie, General Xie." Xiong Da heard Mo Chen's name, and suddenly his mouth was about to laugh, he didn't have any great goals, great ideals, when he joined the army, it was just for a meal of food and clothing, and he could get ahead, but what disappointed him was that he was arrested as a slave in the first battle of the expedition, because he worked as a slave all his life, who would have thought that he would be saved by the general, and reuse himself, and now he is already a regiment commander, a little more than the commanders of the Central Plains countries, this is already a place to get ahead, then he can go home and show off.

It's strange to say that people in this era don't care who you go to, they don't care which country you serve, but they are extremely disgusted with rebellion.

"Xiong Da, wait a minute, you will go to the regiment to select a battalion of troops, and then go to the monkey department, select a battalion of archers, and set off tomorrow morning."

"Yes, General." Xiong Da happily accepted the order, completely ignoring the murderous gazes around him.

Mo Chen continued: "Xie Chen, Wow Nulano, your two teams are cavalry, this cavalry is inconvenient to move on a snowy day, you two don't have to participate in this operation, this time against the enemy, the weakness of the cavalry also comes out, Qin Jun Meng Yu said well, our cavalry, horsemanship, and immediate killing are still very poor, just like the situation of waiting for manpower, our cavalry can only fight with the enemy's cavalry, this is still relying on the situation of strong armor and blades, the enemy has to rest, you can't, you stay to strengthen the training of cavalry, Not only do recruits need to be trained more intensively, but veterans also need to train more intensively, sweat more in peacetime, and shed less blood in wartime, I hope that when the time comes, you can defeat the Hun cavalry without relying on strong armor and blades. ”

"Yes, General." Xie Chen and Wah Nu Lanno hugged their fists to lead the order, this Wow Nu Lan No is nothing, she didn't want to participate in the battle, just what she wanted, and Xie Chen was different, not only could not follow the general to Qin State, but now he didn't even have the opportunity to fight for a division commander, seeing this great opportunity, disappear from his eyes in vain, but he couldn't grasp it, but he also knew that his subordinates' riding skills were indeed inferior to the other party, but there was no way, his cavalry regiment was established for more than a year, how to compare with the Huns who had been living on horseback.

"General, we're all out, so who will guard Plains City! This plain city can't be without people! In case the enemy takes advantage of the emptiness of our Plains City to sneak attack, I'm afraid it won't be good! Seeing that the matter of Mo Chen's trip had been settled, Jiang Feng raised another question, he was still a little worried about the safety of Plains City.

Mo Chen waved his hand and said: "It's okay, just leave it to Lejian to guard Pingyuan City, their division, eight thousand people, is enough." ”

When Jiang Feng heard this, he hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "General, don't!" Although the authenticity of the music room is very large, I am not afraid of 10,000 just in case! In case Le Jian is really the bitter meat of the Yan army, then our Plains City is in danger. ”

Mo Chen showed a hint of a smile, waved his hand and said: "It's okay, as the so-called employment is not suspicious and suspicious, I believe that Lejian is not that kind of person, besides, when the army is reorganized, two-thirds of the Lejian division is our original team, even if Lejian has any uneasy actions, the soldiers will not agree, and besides, Xie Chen's department and Wanulanno's department are also trained in the plain mountain, so there is no need to worry." ”

Jiang Feng and the others, think about it, when the time comes, most of the subordinates brought by Lejian will be taken away by them, even if Lejian is really Yan Jun's bitter meat plan, it is just a meat bun and a dog that will not return, so there is no objection.

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing, you wait first, I'll go get something."

After Mo Chen finished speaking, he stood up and walked to the back room, and Fat Tiger and the others stretched their necks one by one to see what their general was going to take.

And the blacksmith saw that Xie Chen was a little down, so he gave full play to the demeanor of his colleagues, stepped forward and patted Xie Chen's shoulder and comforted: "Old Xie, you don't have to be discouraged, now there are only eight division commanders, but it is also because there are too few soldiers, after we go out this time, we will definitely be able to bring many people back, and when the time comes, it will not be easy to form a few more divisions?" You say yes or no. ”

Xie Chen, that's a touch! Sure enough, the brothers here were righteous enough, and they choked up a little and said: "Thank you, brother, the future of that brother depends on Brother Tie." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's all brothers." The blacksmith is very imposing.

After a while, Mo Chen walked out of the back room, still holding a wooden object only ten centimeters long.

Mo Chen put the thing on the table and said with a smile: "Which of you knows this thing?" ”

"Zhuge Crossbow"

"Zhuge Crossbow"

Two exclamations of disbelief came from the crowd.

Mo Chen looked for a voice, and saw that it was Xie Chen and Cao Tianci who exclaimed, while Fat Tiger and the others all looked at the two of them with puzzled expressions.

Mo Chen smiled: "Hehe, you two know each other? It seems that the two of you have a good insight, come, come forward and talk about it. ”

Cao Tianci and Xie Chen knew each other at a glance, then walked to Mo Chen's seat, and carefully looked at the small wooden product on the table, which looked like a child's toy, but they could see at a glance that it was clearly a miniature version of a small Zhuge crossbow.

Xie Chen spoke first: "General Hui, this Zhuge crossbow is not an uncommon thing, in the Zhao army, and even all countries have this kind of crossbow, this kind of crossbow does not need to be like a bow and arrow, to draw the bow and wait for the order to shoot, it can directly aim at the enemy, and then pull the trigger, the arrow will be shot, more convenient than the bow and arrow, and the requirements for the soldiers are not so big, but these crossbows, because there are no arrow feathers, the arrow will lose balance and roll when it is fired, and the accuracy will deviate a little large, the range is relatively short, and it is difficult to manufacture, the most important thing is that Every time you use it, it will take a lot of time to go to the Xuan, on the arrow, which is far less than an ordinary bow and arrow, but the only advantage is that the first arrow is very convenient to use, especially when you fight immediately, and then you can hit the enemy quickly, the lethality is also very huge, even if many are not with the strong bow, but it is also a lot of strong bows can not be compared, this is a strict thing in all countries, even if you go to the battlefield, after the end, Zhuge crossbow has to be found back, and the production method is a secret of the country, general, how do you do this? ”

From this simple, brand-new wood, Xie Chen concluded that this must be newly made, and it seemed that no one else knew that the only possibility was that their general made it.

Cao Tianci also looked carefully, suddenly clenched his fists, and said cautiously: "General, I don't know if my subordinates can pick it up and take a look?" ”

"Well, whatever." Mo Chen said with a blank expression.

Cao Tianci picked it up, left and right, looked up and down, and said with some doubts: "This Zhuge crossbow is different from the Zhuge crossbow of various countries, the top of the Zhuge crossbow of various countries is flat, and there is only one groove for placing arrows, but there will be an extra square on this crossbow, which is not conducive to aiming!" General, you need to think that the things above this Zhuge crossbow should be removed, so that the arrows can be released faster and easier to aim. ”

Mo Chen shook his head and said: "This is what Captain Xie also said just now, because the arrows of the Zhuge crossbow have no arrow feathers, they will lose their balance and roll when they are shot, and the accuracy is not high, isn't that the case?" ”

Cao Tianci didn't understand why Mo Chen asked like this, but he still nodded honestly and said, "General Hui, Zhuge crossbow does have such a problem. ”

"Since the accuracy is not high, why do you need to care about the inconvenience of other parties to aim?" Mo Chen asked rhetorically.

"This ...... What the general said was very true. Cao Tianci thought about it and felt that it made a lot of sense.

Mo Chen stood up, took the mini version of the Zhuge crossbow from Cao Tianci's finger and said: "This is not an ordinary Zhuge crossbow, this is called a repeating crossbow, you can see it." ”

After Mo Chen finished speaking, he used the small repeater to face the door panel, just like a child in later generations playing with toys, and pulled the trigger.

"Whoosh"

A small wooden arrow flew out of the repeater hole, and with a "bang", it was nailed directly to the door panel.

Mo Chen directly pulled the lever and pulled the trigger, which was another "whoosh" arrow.

Mo Chen stopped after shooting five arrows in a row, waved his hand and said: "See, this is a repeating crossbow, as the name suggests, it is a repeating crossbow, eliminating the complicated steps of ascending the Xuan and the arrows, all in one go." ”
