As soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, Li Ji and Li Jing, who were frowning and contemplating, couldn't help but raise their heads and look at Zhao Chen. Then, as if the two of them reacted, they glanced at each other, and said at the same time: "I forgot about this kid!" ”

"What's the solution?" As soon as these words fell, Li Jing couldn't wait to look at Zhao Chen again, and asked in a tone that was obviously a little curious.

With more than a foot of heavy snow, the cavalry did not sprint at all, and on their side, plus the five hundred East Route Army brought by Li Ji just now, there were only 3,500 people.

Although Zhao Chen has that earthen cannon, in the end, he has to rely on the soldiers to rush forward and meet each other, which is what Li Jing is worried about.

When Li Jing asked this, Li Ji on the side also set his eyes on Zhao Chen, his eyes were full of curiosity!

"Earthen cannons, climbing plows!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he paused slightly, and then, meeting the eyes of Li Jing and Li Ji, he said in a deep voice: "There are also rockets!" ”

"Rockets?" As soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, Li Jingdeng frowned and was stunned, obviously surprised by the so-called rocket that Zhao Chen said.

"Yes, yes!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he frowned slightly, looked at Li Jing and said, "The power of this rocket, compared to the power of the Tumen cannon, is naturally greatly reduced!" ”

Without waiting for Li Jing to speak to Li Ji, Zhao Chen paused, and then continued: "However, although the power is greatly discounted, it is better because it is simple to operate, has a wide coverage, and can be launched intensively!" ”

"Tell me!" Li Jing's eyes were already scorching, obviously. The rockets that Zhao Chen said in his mouth had already made him completely moved.

Zhao Chen heard this. smiled slightly, and looked at Li Jing and Li Ji. Explained what the rocket looked like.

In fact, the principle of the rocket he said is also very simple, that is, on the basis of the crossbow machine, an additional ammunition is added.

That is, the pre-prepared ammunition is installed at the front end of the crossbow arrow, and when the crossbow arrow is fired, the explosion of the ammunition will be triggered.

The power is naturally inferior to the cannon, but. In the dense launch state, the power of that kind of coverage is also quite terrifying!

Zhao Chen also suddenly remembered it just now when Li Jing and Li Ji were sitting there thinking silently, because this ghost weather, if you use cannons, it is not realistic at all.

The ground was frozen like stones. To build a tent, the pillars needed need to be smashed down with steel drills, not to mention. It's time to dig a pit and set up a cannon.

"Done!" After listening to Zhao Chen's explanation, Li Jing's eyes suddenly revealed excitement. looked at Zhao Chen and said, "It's this rocket!" ”

"How long will it take?" Li Jing's voice fell, and Li Jizi on the side was also excited. looked at Zhao Chen, a little impatient. Asked.

"Three days!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he lowered his head, thought for a moment, and then looked at Li Ji and said, "It's just that if you want to make this rocket, my strength alone is obviously not good!" ”

"There are a lot of people!" Li Ji heard Zhao Chen's words, and he didn't think about it, so he looked at Zhao Chen and said magnificently: "There are more than 3,000 people in the barracks, how many people are needed!" ”

"Carpenter!" When Zhao Chen heard Li Ji's words, he immediately showed a helpless smile and said, "I need a carpenter, not everyone can do it!" ”

The ammunition needed for rockets, Zhao Chen naturally doesn't need help from others, this thing is a dangerous errand, if you don't do it well, then you have to put your life into it.

Zhao Chen himself understands this, so naturally there is no problem, but here, there are people who are used to carrying knives, let them make gunpowder, Zhao Chen Jue, it is better to directly take a knife and kill himself.

It's just that he makes the ammunition, and the crossbow machines that can be fired, including the crossbow arrows, need someone else to make them, and besides, they have to be someone who knows the carpenter's craft.

This time, they were all long-range attacks, and the focus was on a sneak attack, so when they left the camp in Wuyuan County, they never thought about bringing a large crossbow machine like the Eight Bull Crossbow.

Therefore, by this time, the eight-bull crossbow will be used, and it can only be temporarily made here.

The materials for making crossbow machines are naturally available in supermarkets, and according to Zhao Chen's guidance, the crossbow machines manufactured are bound to be lighter and more powerful than the current Baniu crossbow in Datang.

As soon as Li Jing and Li Ji told them why they needed a carpenter, the two of them were stunned on the spot, staring at each other with big eyes, and were speechless for a while.

Just thought that everyone could succeed, Li Ji also swore that there were people in the barracks, but at this moment, when he heard that what Zhao Chen needed was someone who understood the carpenter's skills, he was immediately stunned.

At this time, the soldiers in the barracks were all from the government soldiers, that is, they were soldiers in wartime and farmers in their spare time.

"Gather and ask!" Li Jing was also dry, slightly silent, then looked at Zhao Chen and said, "How many people do you need?" ”

"The more the merrier!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he met Li Jing's gaze, smiled helplessly, and then said with a smile: "If there are many people, more rockets will probably be made in three days!" ”

"The old man will ask now!" When Li Jing heard this, he talked to Zhao Chen, so he stood up, walked outside the tent, and arranged for someone to summon him to ask.

"Okay?" Seeing Li Jing go out, Li Ji, who was originally wrapped in a blanket and hiding far away by the stove, suddenly looked at the beef pot on the stove, and asked with snort.

Zhao Chen was originally amused when he saw Li Ji like this, but in the end, he sighed in his heart, stood up and came to the stove, picked up a spoon, took out a large piece of beef from it, put it on the plate and served it to Li Ji.

Naturally, the beef has not been cooked thoroughly, but after boiling it for so long, it is already seven or eight medium-cooked.

Li Ji rushed over all the way, and it is estimated that he didn't have a good meal, and at this time, he was already hungry with his chest on his back, and he could wait until the beef was thoroughly cooked.

Sure enough, when Zhao Chen came over with the plate, Li Ji immediately threw away the blanket on his body, took the plate handed by Zhao Chen, took out a knife from his waist, and sat there and devoured it.

Li Jing's work efficiency was very fast, and he had only been out for a short time, and he had already gathered the whole army and asked any of the soldiers who knew how to make carpenters.

As a result, it was really an unexpected surprise Among the more than 3,000 soldiers, it was really possible to pick out twenty-seven people who knew how to make carpenters, all of whom had learned half-tricks at the beginning, and then grabbed knives and went to the battlefield.

Half-hanged is half-hanging, Zhao Chen listened to Li Jing say that the soldiers who were found were all half-hangers, and some disagreed, half-hangers are good, this is much better than not at all.

The soldiers who were found were ordered by Li Jing to stay, and the rest were disbanded on the spot and returned to their respective camps.

Li Jing didn't say the reason, when Zhao Chen went out, he saw in the snow, the twenty-seven soldiers who had just been selected by Li Jing, at this time, the divine envoy stood there worriedly, completely confused.

"Master Hou, what do you want to do?" Among the twenty-seven soldiers, there were two soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army, as soon as they saw Zhao Chen coming, one of the Flying Tiger soldiers immediately looked at Zhao Chen curiously and asked.

When the soldier asked this, the other soldiers also looked at Zhao Chen with a curious look.

"Plows, crossbows!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he didn't hide it, looked at the twenty-seven soldiers in front of him straightforwardly, and said: "We only have three days, so in these three days, you have to be a little more fortunate and make a little more climbing plows and crossbow machines!" ”

"I'll give you the tools and materials you need!" Zhao Chen looked at the soldiers, paused slightly, looked at the soldiers and asked, "Now, do you have anything else you want to ask?" ”

“… Master Hou, there are only a few people, I'm afraid it's not enough! Zhao Chen's voice fell, and all the soldiers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then, the soldier of the Flying Tiger Army looked at Zhao Chen and said with a little embarrassment.

There are not enough people, Zhao Chen glanced at the twenty-seven soldiers in front of him, and immediately frowned, indeed, just like this soldier, just twenty-seven soldiers, even day and night, they can't make too many things.

"General Zhu Lang!" When he frowned just now, he just saw the figure of Zhu Youliang, the lieutenant general of the Flying Tiger Army, and was slightly stunned, Zhao Chen suddenly looked at Zhu Youliang and shouted.

"Master Hou!" Zhu Youliang, who originally came out to prepare to go for convenience, heard Zhao Chen call him, and immediately trotted all the way over, looked at Zhao Chen with a smile and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Hmm!" Hearing this, Zhao Chen nodded, looked at Zhu Youliang and said, "From now on, pick out some people in the Flying Tiger Army, and temporarily belong to a few of them!" ”

"Huh?" Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, not only Zhu Youliang, but also the twenty-seven soldiers in front of him couldn't help but be stunned, and when they looked at Zhao Chen, they were stunned.

"Ahh Zhao Chen saw that his voice fell, and one by one he seemed to be stupid, and suddenly said angrily.

Hearing Zhao Chen's obviously unangry words, the few people in front of him immediately closed their mouths in fright.

It's just that the eyes of a few soldiers are secretly looking at Zhu Youliang, and the Hou Ye said that the people sent will be led by them for the time being.

This kind of thing, but they never thought of it before, they were ordinary soldiers, but they had to be a commander once, and it was beautiful to think about it.

It's just that when the soldiers were excited, Zhu Youliang on the side, but the chicken on his cheeks, twitched vigorously, this unlucky urging, if it is convenient, it can cause disaster from the sky!

However, since it was ordered by the Hou Ye, there was no intention of being perfunctory, Zhao Chen turned around and left, and Zhu Youliang immediately transferred two teams of people from the army and arranged them for twenty-seven soldiers to command.

For a while, the envious other soldiers were greedy, and they only hated themselves for why they didn't know how to do carpenter skills before! (To be continued.) )
