Sima Xiangru couldn't go, so Yan Ming simply didn't go.

Seeing Sima Xiangru's slightly stumbling pace, Yan Ming still decided to send Sima Xiangru back with Han Yan.

Seeing Sima Xiangru away, the two looked at each other. Yan Ming was not drunk, and Han Yan was not drunk either.

"It's a long night, let's go do some private work!" Han Yan said with a grin.

Yan Ming knew that the private job he said was to assemble a few military crossbows. So he nodded and agreed, this matter is confidential, and no one will let anyone follow. The two of them carried lanterns and quietly arrived at the camp of Captain Hu Cai.

When the sentry saw the two, he didn't ask too much, and Shi Li let the two in.

In the barracks, there is an ordnance warehouse, and the parts are in the warehouse.

Yan Ming and Han Yan walked to the warehouse, only to find that Lou Xiaowu, Wang Dajian and others were patrolling outside.

"General! Hou Ye 1 "Lou Xiaowu and Wang Dajian hugged their fists and arched their hands.

"There's no sentinel out there, what are you two doing?" Han Yan asked.

Lou Xiaowu smiled and didn't speak, and Wang Dajian said: "The one who came back with Yanhou is a brother who is equipped with this military crossbow, which is indeed a good thing, and can kill people a hundred steps away." We need to take care of such good things. ”

Wang Dajian said truthfully.

Lou Xiaowu himself is a marksman, and the bow and arrow are in his hands, and the lethality is just as huge. But if the army can be equipped with such a repeating crossbow, it will be different for the meaning of the entire army.

After a normal salvo of bows and arrows, you need to pause before you can shoot again.

However, the bolts are fired and loaded extremely quickly. Each person is equipped with two crossbow cases, which makes it possible to attack continuously continuously. This kind of thing, in the current cold weapon battlefield, can be regarded as a killing weapon.

"Since we're here, let's go together!" Yan Ming beckoned to the two people and said.

"Together with what?" Wang Dajian's brain is slow, I don't know why.

"Let's assemble two military crossbows for the two of you first." Han Yan said.

"Really!" Lou Xiaowu almost jumped in surprise.

After the ten brothers who came back with Yan Ming showed their military crossbows, Lou Xiaowu hated that he couldn't follow Yan Ming to Chang'an.

Now that I heard that I was going to equip him and Wang Dajian first, I felt that it was absolutely right for me to come over and stand guard at night.

The four of them took out two sets of parts in the warehouse, and Yan Ming assembled one by himself, letting Han Yan and the three of them look at it, and try to assemble another set while watching.

After half a night's work, the three of them were finally taught, and the two military crossbows were successfully assembled.

Yan Ming stretched his waist, a little tired.

Wang Dajian and Lou Xiaowu brought Yan Ming and Han Yan simple beds for the march, and they played with the military crossbow repeatedly.

Yan Ming and Han Yan were lying on the bed, chatting about what they said to Liu Che when they went to Chang'an City this time. In the future, Hu Cai's lieutenant army may be of great use, so that Han Yan can be prepared.

Han Yan was Liu Che's companion, and the relationship between the two was extremely good, so she naturally nodded in agreement, and said that His Majesty should have planned for himself a long time ago!

Wang Dajian outside was playing with the military crossbow, and suddenly remembered something, patted his head, ran in, knelt directly beside Yan Ming, and said: "Yan Hou, your big ability makes the little one envious, when I wrote the family letter, I told the family about you, and also said that you made Hongyantang." The insider told me to see if I could let my baby come to Hongyan Hall! ”

Yan Ming sat up from the bed, helped Wang Dajian up, and said, "The children of Hongyantang must at least know the basic characters. Your baby, how's that? ”

Wang Dajian shook his head and said, "I know, since Hongyantang recruited the first batch of students in September last year, I have asked Neiko to find a place for the children to read and write at home. I just want to ask Yan Hou, when is our next enrollment? ”

Yan Ming said with a smile: "Every year on September 1st, students will be enrolled. There will be exams then. Your baby has been literate for a year, and there should be no problem. ”

Wang Dajian's eyes showed hope, and he said: "Then I will let my family find a teacher to teach children to read." I don't want to wait for my children to grow up, and I am like this, living a life of blood dripping from the head of a knife all day long. ”

After appeasing Wang Dajian and promising to give Wang Dajian some literacy cards and the content of the Hongyantang recruitment examination, Wang Dajian left happily.

After all, no one wants their children to go down a path they don't want to take. The people of our Han Dynasty, from ancient times to the present, are the most important in the family.

Wang Dajian's mood, Yan Ming can understand.

When Wang Dajian went out, Han Yan on the side spoke: "If you don't want to live a life of blood dripping from the head of the knife, then you have to destroy the Huns first before you can have hope!" ”

Yan Ming also sighed and said, "After a few years of cultivation, it is not difficult to destroy the Huns!" ”

"It's easy to say, but when it comes to a real fight, I don't know how many people will die!" Han Yan sighed.

"If there is no one who does not die in a war, it depends on whether the death is worth it. If someone wants to invade our family, does it have to pass us? Yan Ming said.

"That's going to step over my corpse." Han Yan clenched her fists and said.

The two of them started from the Xiongnu and chatted about the world......

But the Huns, who were far north of the desert, were also planning at this time.

In the big tent of Xiongnu Shan Yu, a general with pigtails stood in the middle, hugged his chest with one hand and gave a deep salute and said: "Da Shan Yu, the Han people are becoming more and more rampant now. How can the eagles on our grassland be led by their noses. It's about to be the beginning of spring. We might as well go to the Han and Korean borders to stir up trouble and make their spring ploughing unpossible. ”

Another Xiongnu official complained and said: "This is a way, so that they can't plant in the spring, and naturally they won't be able to harvest in the autumn." Without food, the Han people are bound to move south. When the time comes, the place where their city will be will be our horse pasture. ”

"What you said is good, but if the Han Dynasty is not allowed to farm, where will we grab grain in the autumn?" Xiongnu Da Danyu questioned the proposal of the two men.

"Da Danyu, the Han people retreat south, and the border passes will naturally retreat south. When the time comes, we will not grab the same grain from their interior. The Hun official laughed.

"Han people, more than 60 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, except for the nested Liu Bang, it seems that no generation of emperors dares to fight against my Great Huns. They will only kiss and kiss, and give their own women in exchange for our tolerance. The Huns with pigtails said proudly.

"Plans to sabotage spring ploughing can be considered! However, we will not occupy the city, if the Han people really move south, we will destroy the city, turn their place into a grassland, into a horse farm. Shan Yu punched the seat and said proudly.

"In order to confuse the Han people, we can first send an envoy to ask for peace."

"Yes, first send a peace envoy to let the Han people relax their vigilance, and we will take action."

"Last year's incident between the Menba tribe and Mo Nan Xiaowang Dugger, I suspected that it was related to the Han people."
