"What weapon? Hehe, Zhang Liao, you are really ridiculous, otherwise, you come by boat in person, and I will let you see what kind of weapon it is. ”

Of course, Zu Ti would not tell the other party that this crossbow was his ultimate weapon, which was made by Liu Yuetian with the method of immortals, and Zu Ti had also let the most skilled craftsmen in Henan County see it and asked if they could make it, but these craftsmen were dumbfounded after opening the arrow box, and they had never seen the delicate parts inside, especially the wheel bullet that polished the steel into the size of a finger cover, this kind of craftsmanship has far exceeded the productivity level of this era, not to mention the manufacture of crossbows, even a part can not be made.

Therefore, Zu Ti was not worried that this repeating crossbow would be imitated by the other party, this time it was used to play a role in intimidation, and sure enough, a thousand crossbows fired in unison to scare Zhang Liao.

"Okay, good, good, Zu Taishou, I really didn't expect that you would have such a powerful weapon, okay, I admit it, but I will tell the King of Wei about it, and then it won't be me here to talk to you, a million troops are pressing the border, I want to see if your weapons can reach it?" Let's withdraw! ”

Zhang Liao gave an order, the army continued to retreat, and directly retreated to the camp ten miles away, he sent troops this time just to test the other party, not really to fight with Zu Li, the last thousand soldiers were dead in Luohe, this result he didn't expect.

"You have all defended me, if the other party has any more action, immediately report it to me, I will make them come and go!"

Zu Ti also understood the true intentions of the other party, after this killing, the other party may not attack Luoyang in a short time, but he can't relax, he is also confident, as long as the other party does not increase troops on a large scale, Zhang Liao's tens of thousands of people alone will definitely not be able to defeat Luohe.

Then the next thing is to depend on Liu Yuetian, as long as Liang Ji's 30,000 army is completely wiped out, the situation in the whole world will change.

Chang'an has now become a mess of porridge, 30,000 troops are mobilized, food, fresh water and weapons and so on must be prepared, but officials at all levels in Chang'an are corpse vegetarian meals, such as the preparation of grain and grass, then it is necessary for Da Si Nong to come forward to organize, although it is Liang Ji's order, but the food has to come out of Da Si Nong's hands, where does he have any food? So I had to buy grain from the peasant households in the city through the army again, and it would cost money to buy grain, although the official price of buying grain was very low, and a load of grain was only a few dollars of silver, but to raise 100,000 taels of grain, it would cost tens of thousands of taels of silver, where would the silver come from? Then you can only go to the household department to ask, of course the officials of the household department are not happy, first shirk for a while, and then go to the merchants of Tianshui to ask, the merchants naturally do not want to be wronged, some simply say that they have gone bankrupt, or even run to Tianshui.

When you barely scrape together enough silver, and the weapons are insufficient, then ask the Ministry of Industry to ask for it, the officials of the Ministry of Industry were immediately blinded, last year's 100,000 troops had taken away all the weapons, and now they came to ask for it again, only hundreds of thousands of catties of pig iron, but now even the blacksmiths of the Ministry of Industry have not much left, and many of them have been secretly dug up to Tianshui by Liu Yuetian.

In this way, the pre-war preparations took two months, and the preparations were not completely complete, the food could barely be eaten for a month, and there were only more than 10,000 war horses, most of which were only yellow horses, and the weapons were even worse, with only more than 20,000 standard weapons, and some of the remaining soldiers were holding hoes and sickles, and some simply went to the battlefield with their bare hands.

Needless to say, the morale of such an army is listless, because they all know that this battle is basically without military pay, and they may lose their lives in the end after walking thousands of miles after hard work.

Wherever these people go to war, they say that they are fleeing from the famine, and everyone believes them.

However, as the commander of the army, Wang Tong is full of confidence, Liu Yuetian is a child, younger than his sons, his son has nothing to do all day long, either fighting dogs and flying eagles or sleeping flowers and willows, so how good can Liu Yuetian be? A little kid will be scared when he sees the army, and he may even win a big victory without fighting.

In this way, Wang Tong set off to Tianshui with tens of thousands of people, and the troops in front were still beating gongs and drums, not like going to war, but going to spring outing.

The people of Jingfu were immediately dumbfounded when they saw this group of people traveling, the scene of the 100,000 army traveling last year is still vivid, and it was okay when they set off, but after the victory, they were like locusts in transit, those displaced people will not be too much to the common people, at best, they will rob food and money and rarely kill people, but this gang of people burns and loots everywhere they pass, and some even knock down houses for you, and tragedy abounds.

"Alas, the lives of the common people are getting more and more miserable, Chang'an can't stay any longer, let's hurry up!"

One said bitterly.

"Let's go? Where are we going? Damn, I'm going to get the hoe ready now, and if these guys dare to come again, I'll fight with them, and I'll have to find a few backs even if I die! ”

Wang Tong's every move is under Liu Yuetian's control, he sent more than a dozen clever soldiers, riding a wind-chasing BMW with carrier pigeons to monitor Wang Tong's army uninterruptedly, and grasp the other party's every move, and Lu Chang sent several "undercover" agents in Wang Tong's army, these "undercover" and Liu Yuetian's spies took over, that is, Wang Tong's daily conversation with the generals is clear.

"This Wang Tong is really a straw bag, even Wang Ping's skills can't be compared, he eats, drinks and has fun all day long, and he also makes up a slip to motivate his subordinates, saying that as soon as the army arrives in Tianshui, chickens and dogs will jump, such a person can still be a captain? Liang Ji really has no cure this time. ”

Chang Yuchun took the letter back, and the things recorded on it made him a little speechless.

"Yes! I'm a little pitiful for those soldiers now, the commander is incompetent, even a group of tigers and wolves have suffered, not to mention that they can't even count as stragglers, it would be more appropriate to call them Hanako. ”

Shi Le couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the news coming back from the front.

"How's the killers doing?"

Liu Yuetian no longer pays attention to Wang Tong now, a fool with a group of people called Huazi to fight, not to mention that Liu Yuetian has a sharp weapon like a crossbow, but no, the other party is not an opponent, and even he feels that his army is likely to win a big victory without one person dying and one person without being injured.

His goal is to let his soldiers really improve their combat power, not only in terms of tactics and morale, but also in terms of personal ability.
