The manufacture of bows and arrows takes a long time, and the Guixin army is not equipped, if the Liao army comes at this time, the consequences are unimaginable, Wu Ji will certainly not let it take too long. The raw materials he asked Yang Xiuxiu to buy were all ready to be used, which greatly shortened the cycle.

In today's north, although after the alliance of the Yuanyuan, the imperial court began to control the ordnance. However, the hundred-year-long war still gave birth to a lot of war raw materials, and it is not difficult to purchase ready-made raw materials.

Under the command of Wu Ji, the craftsmen got busy and began to make bows. With Wu Ji's guidance, it was not difficult for them to do it, and it was completed quickly.

After completion, it cannot be used immediately, and it can only be used until the glue and the bow are completely combined, which will take some time.

After a few days, after Wu Ji checked, the glue and the bow body were combined well, and it could be used, so he picked up a bow and tried to pull it apart.

Although with the bow and crossbow, a lot of effort can be saved, but with Wu Ji's body, he still can't pull it apart, and he only pulls it halfway, and Wu Ji can't test the bow himself.

And at the moment, these people are okay with bows, but they can't be tested if they want to be tested. You have to find someone who knows how to bow and arrow to try it out, who to look for?

Wu Ji rolled his eyes, and immediately thought of a person, this person was Qi Dabao. The heroes of Qiyun Club are the best at archery and have the most say in bows and arrows, and it is best for them to test them.

As soon as he thought of it, Wu Ji took a few bows, left the Wu family's military industry, and rushed to Qiyun Society. Wu Ji came to Qiyun Club, was warmly received by Qi Dabao, personally welcomed him into the house, and asked someone to serve tea: "Commander Wu, what kind of wind is blowing today?" I've blown you here! ”

"Brother Qi, I'm here to trouble you." Wu Ji and Qi Dabao's friendship is getting better and better, and the two are called brothers.

"Commander Wu, if you have something, just say that as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it. Say, what's the matter? "Qi Dabao is as refreshing as ever, not dragging mud and water.

Wu Ji put a few bows on the table and said straightly: "I made this bow, and I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know if there is a problem." Speaking of bows and arrows, the entire conversion, except for Brother Qi, can't find a second person who is proficient. I had to trouble Brother Qi to help me verify and verify, it's easy to use, but it's still not easy to use. ”

"You did it?" Qi Dabao was a little surprised. Wu Ji can make thunderbolts, he believes in 10,000, but, when it comes to bow making, this is the current technology, even if Wu Ji can, it may not be much better, he picked up a bow casually, looked at it slightly, and his eyes flashed: "This bow is novel!" Hey, what is this? ”

A pair of eyes stared at the bowbow, and his face was a little confused.

The bow can save effort, can make the bow have a larger range, stronger penetration, but it is a technology that has not been used in ancient Chinese bows, and Qi Dabao certainly does not know it.

"This is called a bow and crossbow, with this thing, it will be more effortless, shoot farther, and be stronger!" Wu Ji explained slightly.

"Really?" Qi Dabao was a little incredulous, he couldn't hold it anymore, waved his big hand, and said, "Go!" Go for it! ”

Regardless of Wu Ji, he took a big step and stepped out. He is a man who loves bows, and with such a novel bow, he can hold it down, and he walks very fast, like the trend.

Wu Ji followed Qi Dabao, went out of the house, and came to the place where the heroes of Qi Yun Club practiced archery, and many arrow targets were standing. Qi Dabao didn't say a word, bent his bow and set up an arrow, aimed at the arrow target, and the bow opened the full moon and shot over.

"Whoosh!"

There was a sharp cracking sound, and an arrow broke through the barrier of air like an awl, and shot at the target.

"Bang!"

There was a crisp crash, and the arrow hit the bull's-eye, two feet deep.

"What a strong force!" Qi Dabao raised his eyebrows, very surprised. Although he had heard Wu Ji say that with the bow and crossbow, the strength would be stronger, he didn't expect it to be so strong.

Under normal circumstances, he shoots at the target of the arrow, and it is good that the arrow can go deep into a foot, but this arrow is nearly two feet deep, and it is really much stronger.

The bow opened the full moon again, and this time, the shaft of the arrow was more than two feet into the target. I shot a few arrows in a row, and the strongest one didn't go nearly three feet.

"Good bow! Good bow! ”

Qi Dabao was a little dumbfounded, and couldn't help but praise loudly, holding it tightly, eager to be greedy.

"How? But how easy is it? Wu Ji hurriedly asked.

"Isn't it just easy to use? It's very easy to use! Qi Dabao looked at the bow in his hand, and couldn't take his eyes off it anymore: "Commander Wu, how much does this bow cost?" How much I want, how much I want! We, Qiyun Society, are in need of such a good bow. ”

"Brother Qi, this matter has to wait and talk." Wu Ji shook his head and rejected Qi Dabao's proposal: "The army is waiting for the bow to be used, I have to equip the army first." ”

Qi Dabao knew the current situation of the army, and the equipment was extremely scarce, otherwise, Wu Ji would not have asked him to borrow a bow and arrow. Although he knew that this was the truth, Qi Dabao still had a look of regret on his face: "It's a pity! Pity! Commander Wu, allow you to equip the army, such a good bow must be sold to us Qiyun Society!" We are the best at longbows and arrows, and with such a good bow, it is equivalent to an extra life! ”

After the conversion army is equipped, these equipment will be sold, and it is naturally not a problem to sell it to Qi Yunshe, this time the trial has also attracted a huge customer, Wu Ji is also happy, and readily agreed: "Definitely!" Certain! ”

"Commander Wu, this bow is easy to use, but the time is too short, if you want to put it, it will be even easier to use." Qi Dabao is worthy of being a person who is proficient in bows and arrows, and he can see the problem with this bow at a glance.

Bow making takes a long time, and although the raw materials are readily available, the bow is not available for time.

"Good eyesight!" Wu Ji appreciated, and said a little helplessly: "Aren't I in a hurry to use it?" The bows and arrows used by the army are all borrowed from you, and I am in a hurry. This is the first batch, Brother Qi said no problem, I can make it in large quantities, and when the time is enough, I will give it to the army. ”

Qi Dabao tried a few more and praised it vigorously. It's just that Qi Dabao is like a rich man who is greedy for money when he sees ingots, grabs a bow, and doesn't let go no matter what, Wu Ji has no choice but to give him this bow, Qi Dabao is overjoyed, and praises Wu Ji as a good person.

With Qi Dabao's affirmation, there will be no problem with this bow, and Wu Ji is also happy, bidding farewell to Qi Dabao, returning to Wu's military industry, and asking craftsmen to make it in large quantities.

There were 500 converts, and each man needed 500 for 1 hand, and 7 or 800 for spare. For Wu's military industry, it is still a big burden and it will take some time.

Fortunately, Wu Ji did things well and recruited a lot of skilled bow-making craftsmen, which was much easier. In the north, it is really not difficult to recruit bow makers.

So far, Wu Ji's single-minded desire to sell weapons to the army has been successful. He became the battalion commander of the Converts and sold weapons to the Converts, and no one had anything to say. Besides, the weapons made by the Wu military industry are much better than the weapons of the Song Dynasty's ordnance supervisor.

In other words, Huiyi has officially begun.

Although Wu Ji did not retain the return to the army, he could use the Wu military industry to return to the army.

The bow and arrow matter was done, and the burden on Wu Ji's heart was lighter. When he came to the barracks and told him about it, Huangfu Song was very happy. Immediately afterwards, Huangfu Song complained again: "Commander Wu, bows and arrows are the most urgently needed, yes, but what about knives, guns, and armor? I'm in a hurry to use it, why didn't you make it earlier? Wu's military industry has a blacksmith, so it can be done first. ”

He can't be blamed, the Converts are too short of equipment, and today's training is still wooden knives and guns.

"It's not that hard! Making a knife and gun is easier than making a bow, and it doesn't take that long. Wu Ji frowned and said, "It's just that there is a problem here, and I want to discuss it with you." ”

The cycle of making a bow is long, and the knife and gun only need to have enough blacksmiths and enough raw materials, and it is not difficult to build.

"It's very, very important, and I need to hear what you think, even though I had an idea. Let's go, let's go there! Wu Ji took Huangfu Song to the swordsman, pointed to the swordsman who was training, and said: "Brother Huangfu, have you noticed that the hemp knife is too light and its power on the battlefield is limited. ”

"Too light?" Huangfu Song was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "That's right!" Commander Wu didn't say anything about this, and I didn't pay attention to it. The hemp knife weighs only five or six pounds, and it is really not powerful enough to slash and kill on the battlefield. You wait, I'll go get something, go and go back. ”

didn't wait for Wu Ji to speak, walked away quickly, and came back soon. Holding a knife in his hand, with a respectful look on his face, as if he had seen an old ancestor, he handed it to Wu Ji and said with a smile: "Commander Wu, do you know what kind of knife this knife is?" It's a big deal! Say it, it scares you! ”

The spirit is flying, the head is high, the chest is straight, and he is very proud: "This knife has created an incomparable brilliance!" ”
