Chapter 210: Hunting
Listening to the muffled sound of puff, the big fat pig immediately barked, and ran around without a head. Cai Cong looked at the half-exposed arrows, nodded with satisfaction, raised his hand and shot six sharp arrows in a row and inserted them into the head of the fat pig, the big fat pig fell to the ground and hissed, the smell of blood was pervasive, but the big fat pig could no longer get up.
"Yes, with such a great force, it is beyond my expectation, and you have done a good job. What is the effective range? ”
Cai Cong put down the crossbow and nodded with satisfaction, half of the arrow entered the body, which shows how terrifying the lethality is, if it is replaced by the human body, this arrow is afraid that it will come out of the body.
"Hou Ye Xie praised, this crossbow is one hundred and fifty meters against the wind and nearly two hundred meters downwind, so the distance is already close to the marksman. Just ......"
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
Cai Cong naturally knew that it could not be perfect, this repeater was quite comparable to the top weapons of later generations in the Tang Dynasty, if there were no bumps and bumps in the research and development process, he would not believe it.
"This crossbow has nine arrows in one round, and if you shoot more than a dozen rounds in a row, this arrow path will wear out and lose its accuracy due to high temperature, and it will be reduced to scrap metal. The craftsmen have changed more than a dozen kinds of iron tools and cannot solve this problem, so I would like to ask you to decide. ”
"Tell them to separate the arrow path, not to fix it to the repeater, and when the time comes, if it is damaged, replace it with a new one. You need to be embarrassed for so long for such a simple thing? ”
Cai Cong complained and said, whose repeater in the future can not be disassembled into a pile of parts, you actually welded the arrow to death, isn't this the brain caught by a donkey?
"Master Hou really woke up the dreamer with a word!" Pei Dong exclaimed in surprise, not everyone came from the era of information explosion like Cai Cong, his thinking is still relatively rigid, and there are not many people who can think of turning it into pieces.
"Don't be a sycophant, even if this matter is over, there will be something else to talk about." Cai Cong said lazily, he knew Pei Dong, if it was such a trivial matter, he would never come in person.
"Please go to a hidden place to talk."
Cai Cong nodded, and the two came to a hidden place. Pei Dong asked: "Does Master Hou remember the Mr. Zhu he saved on the way back to Chang'an from Shandong?" ”
"You mean that the one named Zhu Jianshen? What happened to him? ”
"He killed himself."
"Alas, he is a talent, I thought that finding him something to do would help him not to think cranky, but I didn't expect him to die after all." When Cai Cong rescued Zhu Jianshen, both of them were dying, and it was he who ordered someone to pour millet porridge to let them survive.
When Zhu Jianshen woke up and thanked Cai Cong, Cai Cong knew that he was dead when he saw his eyes. That look is exactly the same as when he chose to turn himself in, completely lifeless and loveless, and there is no nostalgia for everything.
He has made up his mind, but he feels that he can't complete the flying cage and flying cat for you. In addition, he said one thing, and the little one feels compelled to talk to you. ”
At that moment, he told the matter of the Ghost Valley, as for what to do, it was the matter of the Hou Ye. Cai Cong frowned and was puzzled, how could there be such an organization? The Ghost Valley Gate stirring the Spring and Autumn Period is enough to move people's hearts, if they can still lurk in the abyss and affect the trend of China's thousand-year history, then why don't you see them when the Wuhu is chaotic? Not to mention the smoke and dust of the Eighteenth Road, Wang Shichong was a sin back then, and today Hebei is still full of widow villages, why don't you see their traces?
"Okay, got it, you go back first! I know this in my heart, I left the crossbow, and the improvement method I said must be done as soon as possible, but I am afraid that there will be a big war in less than half a year, and whether I can become famous in one fell swoop depends on this time. Cai Cong said with a smile, he was already very satisfied that the crossbow could do this.
Pei Dong nodded and turned to leave, Cai Congcai said with an old god: "Hiding in the dark and eavesdropping on others, I don't seem to have taught you that, right?" ”
At this time, Chu Yao and Wu Meiniang, who were lying on the ground and covered with grass, dared to poke their heads out, with a depressed face: "Master, how did you find out about me and Sister Yaoyao?" We even have grass in our hair! ”
"Although you have done a good job, you have overlooked one point, this grass is cleaned every day, how can there be such a mess of grass? Next time! Use your brain more. Okay, today's homework is how to hide your whereabouts in the wild, when I come back from the palace, it is the time of assessment, if anyone does not do well, the ice cream will be confiscated tonight. ”
Cai Cong said that he left the grass with his hands behind his back, as for how the two of them tossed it was their business, whether it was pondering by themselves or asking the veterans of the new army, Cai Cong didn't care, he just had an answer.
Li Shimin's face was tired, in addition to the endless twists and turns that he had to deal with every day, he also had to plan how to clean up the Turks, Jieli sent someone again, and the words were that if the Tang Dynasty did not stop those actions that made him feel at ease, he would send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty and burn the jade. If the Tang Dynasty is willing to stop preparing for war, he will bow down and become a vassal of the Tang Dynasty from now on, respecting Li Shimin as the suzerain.
Such a combination of soft and hard is a little difficult for Li Shimin, but he will never stop, and he still can't forget the scene on Weishui. The people died tragically, he laughed and killed the horse of life, he wanted to pacify the Turks, as long as the nation survived the natural disaster, it would recover its tenacious vitality, and if there was a strong figure at that time, it would be a disaster for the Tang Dynasty.
He ordered Tang Jian to be an envoy and went to the Turks to appease Jieli, hoping to buy more time, and secretly Li Jing went to the border to dispatch in the middle, everything shows that the general trend of history has not changed.
Cai Cong met Li Shimin and presented the repeating crossbow to explain the power of the repeating crossbow, Li Shimin's eyes lit up all of a sudden, he was an outstanding military strategist, and naturally knew how terrible this terrifying killing weapon was.
Looking at the repeater in the hand of the chamberlain, the eyes were even hotter than looking at the beauty. Turned his head and asked Cai Cong: "You said that this thing can kill tigers at a distance of 200 meters, but is it true?" ”
"If the people under his command have not exaggerated the false report, then it is true, or Your Majesty will send someone to try it, so that it will be clear at a glance." Cai Cong said arrogantly, just take something out, Lao Li drooled without a smile, and sure enough, he can still despise this emperor through the ages in some aspects.
"A little achievement is complacent, and that's all you can do. Follow me to the Imperial Hunting Ground, I want you to see what it means to be a true hero who fights tigers and kills lions. Li Shimin said disdainfully. Cai Cong's proud eyes couldn't be hidden, and it was clear that he wanted to despise him.
"Your Majesty, you are a golden body, what if you are injured?"
Cai Cong hurriedly said, the disdain in Li Shimin's eyes was even stronger, and he sneered and said: "When I fought bloodily, you were still in your mother's belly!" What should I do if I was hurt? Joke. ”
Cai Cong looked at the sky with his eyes, Lao Zibai was worried, Li Lao Er's killing array was dangerous, more than he had eaten, how could he be afraid of a tiger?
