"How's the blade being built?" Lu Bu asked.

"My lord, even if there are 10,000 more troops in the state, I am confident that I will complete the task." Pu Yuan patted his chest and reassured.

"It's better to have less than to have more." Lu Bu reminded.

Pu Yuan said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, when has the craftsman workshop ever created a shoddy blade." ”

Lu Bu smiled slightly, and Pu Yuan's optimistic mood also infected him.

After watching for a while, Lu Bu went to the place where Ma Jun built the equipment, and in a large-scale siege battle, it was necessary to be able to gain an advantage in the equipment.

"Where is Zeng Di?" Lu Bu asked, he had been thinking about the thunderbolt that Zeng Di said could reach a range of 500 paces.

Ma Jun said: "Zeng Di has been busy with the thunderbolt car since he entered the craftsman's workshop. ”

Zeng Di did not hide his secrets when he built the thunderbolt, Ma Jun also realized after observing on the side, it turned out that the thunderbolt car could also be built like this, after observing Zeng Di to build the thunderbolt, he was no longer skeptical that Zeng Di could build a thunderbolt with a range of 500 steps.

"Take Ben Hou there." Lu Bu was in good spirits.

Zeng Di was concentrating on busy in front of a huge thunderbolt, Lu Bu was secretly amazed when he saw such a thunderbolt, with the huge size of the thunderbolt in front of him, the number of people who needed to operate was twice as large as that of an ordinary thunderbolt, and the number of people was large, but it was followed by an increase in range.

Lu Bu coughed lightly, seeing that Zeng Di still hadn't woken up from building the thunderbolt, he appreciated Zeng Di's responsible attitude even more, no matter what he did, it was actually difficult to be distracted, Ma Jun had done this in building and researching equipment, so Ma Jun's achievements in equipment were enough to make many craftsmen envious.

Ma Jun gently pulled Zeng Di, Zeng Di raised his head angrily, he had explained that there was nothing that could not disturb him when he built the thunderbolt.

After seeing that it was Lu Bu who arrived, Zeng Di hurriedly got up and saluted: "I don't know if it is the arrival of the Marquis of Jin, I am offended." ”

Lu Bu smiled: "I don't blame you for this, it's just how the thunderbolt is built?" ”

When it comes to the thunderbolt, Zeng Di's face showed pride, in terms of building equipment, Momen has a unique feature, which is incomparable to the craftsmen under the rule of the princes, and at the same time, the craftsman workshop in the Baibo Valley also allowed Zeng Di to find a place to display his strengths, first of all, the terrain of the Baibo Valley, easy to defend and difficult to attack, in the Baibo Valley can better protect his safety, and the state attaches great importance to the craftsman's workshop, and the facilities in the craftsman's workshop are complete.

"I am fortunate to live up to my life and complete the construction of the thunderbolt, but there are still some details that need to be dealt with." Zeng Di Dao.

"Okay." Lu Bu laughed.

Zeng Di said: "I don't know what happened to the Marquis of Jin against the Black Ice Terrace?" This is what he cares about the most, Momen was brutally poisoned by the Black Ice Platform, which is not only the sorrow of Momen, but also regarded as a shame by Momen, how could Momen have such an embarrassing situation.

"Black Ice Terrace, hmph, it's hard to last long, and now the owner of the Black Ice Platform has been captured by Ben Hou Sheng." Lu Budao.

Zeng Di's face was overjoyed when he heard this: "I don't know if I can see him next." ”

Lu Bu nodded, "Let's talk about this after you've built the thunderbolt completely." "It was a deal between him and Zeng Di, Zeng Di hated the Black Ice Table, and he needed the technology in Zeng Di's hands.

"Within the next day, we will definitely be able to complete the transformation of the Thunderbolt." Zeng Di arched his hand.

"In this way, Benhou will be waiting for you in the craftsman's workshop for a day." Lu Bu said with a smile.

After returning to the room, Lu Bu ordered people to summon Pu Yuan and Cheng Tie all, he felt that the current situation in Bingzhou should be talked to a few people, so that the three of them felt the urgency of the situation, and the fate of Bingzhou and the craftsman's workshop was closely linked.

After glancing at the three of them, Lu Bu said slowly: "Ben Hou went to Baibo Valley not only for the matter of equipment and blades, but also for one more thing, you also need to understand. ”

The three of them sat upright, staring straight at Lu Bu, for fear of missing every detail, for Lu Bu, they only have reverence and gratitude, without Lu Bu there would be no them today, the status of craftsmen in this era is low, no matter how much the princes attach importance to craftsmen, they dare not promise to give craftsmen official positions like this.

"After Benhou led his troops to pacify Chang'an, he got a bad news, that is, the imperial court, Yanzhou, Jizhou and Jiangdong want to unite to attack Bingzhou and Chang'an, although there are 50,000 people in Bingzhou, it is a protracted war against the princes' coalition army, and the consumption of blades and equipment is also huge."

Lu Bu's words set off a storm in the hearts of the three of them, Lu Bu had also been to the craftsman's workshop in the past, but this time he brought such news, and at this moment they felt the weight of their responsibility.

"But the lord has commanded, and the lowly duty will be completed." Ma Jun, who has always been relatively silent among the three, took the lead and said: "The life of the humble duty is saved by the lord, and in order to merge the state, even if this life is taken, the princes will not be allowed to succeed." ”

In fact, before Lu Bu arrived, they received an order from the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion to make every effort to build blade armor and equipment, and the three of them felt a little uneasy at that time, even when Lu Bu was preparing to plan Chang'an, the production speed of the craftsman's workshop was definitely able to supply.

"Jiguan is the barrier to the east of the river, and it is also one of the barriers of Chang'an, but there are only fifty thunderbolts in the Jiguan, such a number may be able to cope with it in ordinary times, but after the arrival of the princes' coalition army, it seems to be a little insufficient, and the state has thunderbolts and bed crossbows, and the princes also have, according to the news obtained by Benhou, Yanzhou's bed crossbow has a longer range, and the princes are determined to break through the state this time, communicate with each other, once the enemy army can suppress the state army on the thunderbolt car and bed crossbow, then the state is in danger, Chang'an is in danger." Lu Bu said: "The blades and armor are built with all their might, and the first thing Deheng needs to do is to ensure that the bed crossbow can exceed three hundred steps in range. ”

At the beginning, the bed crossbow in Yuan Shu's hand reached a range of 300 steps, and Cao Cao may have obtained a craftsman under Yuan Shu's command to create a bed crossbow with a range of 300 steps.

"The lord can rest assured, the humble duty will definitely complete the task, and the crossbow task that the lord handed over at the beginning, the craftsman's workshop has also made great progress." Ma Jun said in a firm tone.

Lu Bu laughed when he heard this: "With the help of Deheng and you, why worry about not being able to hold the state, and then let the princes' alliance taste the power of the state's craftsman's workshop." ”
