The latest chapter of "The Three Kingdoms: Runan Chen Bozhi"...
"Lord Wang, Hanzhong has sent a batch of baggage, as well as three thousand recruits. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "On this day, Chen Lin and others were discussing and planning the exchange of hostages. A soldier came in to report, and when Chen Lin heard it, he was overjoyed: "Hehe, Kong Ming did a good job in Nanzheng." What are the baggage? "Look up and ask the soldier.
"Lord Wang, I don't know, all things have a seal order from Hanzhong, and no one is allowed to open it privately, otherwise the military law will deal with it, and this batch of baggage will be personally escorted by Lord Jia Muja." The soldier said.
Chen Lin, Jia Xu and others were shocked, Jia Mu, Jia Xu's son. Chen Lin was overjoyed: "What? Guiping came in person, hahaha, Wenhe, go, go and see, what the hell is this, let Guiping come in person. Jia Mu did not have a big official position in the Qin State, which was because Jia Xu said to Chen Lin: "Guiping is not talented enough and is difficult to be qualified for a high position, so please ask the lord to do what he can." ”
In other words, it was Jia Xu who did not let Jia Mu become a high-ranking official. But because of Jia Xu's willingness, no one in the Qin State can underestimate Jia Mu, who is definitely Chen Lin's cronies. This time, Zhuge Liang actually asked Jia Mu to escort him personally, which shows that Zhuge Liang attaches great importance to this baggage.
Jia Xu hasn't seen his son for a long time, and he is happy at this time. There were other curious people, all of whom followed Chen Lin and Jia Xu out to see this special batch of baggage.
Not long after, Chen Lin and the others came to the rear camp. Jia Mu was a little older than Chen Lin, and at this time, he saw Jia Mu busy directing the soldiers to carry it. "Alas, over there, be careful, heavy, heavy, and a few more people will move together, you and you, gather the empty carriages and ox carts, okay, okay, by the way, cover it with a tarpaulin, it's not good if it rains-"
Chen Lin crossed his hand and stood fixedly, watching Jia Mu's busyness. Jia Xu next to him looked at his only remaining son, of course, he now has a grandson. Jia Xu's eyes couldn't help but moisten, his son didn't have any great skills, but he was always so conscientious, good. Jia Xu felt a burst of relief in his heart, Chen Lin: "Wenhe, Guiping is the elder brother of King Gu." ”
Behind him, Fa Zheng Gao Shun and the others were shocked, and Jia Xu also looked at Chen Lin who stepped forward in horror, and murmured in his heart: "Lord, even if you give up your life, Xu will also help you achieve great things." ”
"King Qin has arrived." Seeing the soldier, a loud roar, Jia Mu hurriedly turned around, and saw that Chen Lin and his father were there, and hurriedly wanted to kneel, Chen Lin took an arrow step: "Hahaha, Guiping, get up, get up." ”
Jamu: "The ceremony cannot be abolished, Jamu greets the lord." Jamu was ordered to escort the baggage forward, and now all of them have arrived safely. ”
Jia Mu said, and couldn't help but glance behind Chen Lin, but saw Jia Xu smiling and nodding, and Jia Mu also smiled. Chen Lin: "Guiping, what is this, so mysterious, what did Kong Ming send to the Lone King?" ”
Jia Mu looked around and said: "Lord Zhu, this, Lord Zhuge personally explained, don't let people know about this thing, this time even the officers and soldiers escorted, except for Mu, no one else knows, and ask the lord to wait, wait until Mu lets these soldiers retreat." "These escorted soldiers are not soldiers and horses fighting in Chen Lin's army, and the secrecy is far from enough.
When Jia Mu said this, Chen Lin and the others were even more surprised, which was a bit weird. After a while, Jia Mu waved everyone away, and there was only Chen Lin and his party at the scene, and there were soldiers guarding the baggage camp. I saw Jia Mu: "My lord, generals, please see, this is a kind of crossbow made by Zhuge Da." As he spoke, Jamu pried open the wooden box with a dagger, and the wooden box was so big.
Zhou Cang hurriedly said, "Car crossbow? What's so mysterious about this, the crossbow, with the gun as the arrow, this thing was seen as early as when he was a county commander with the eldest young master in Yizhou, it's not easy to use, it's too slow, I thought the little white face made something. ”
Zhuge Liang will always be a little white face in Zhou Cang's eyes, and Gao Shun and other generals behind him, although they are not as rude as Zhou Cang, but this is probably what they mean in their eyes. The crossbow is indeed an obsolete weapon, and now it is more often used with various large-scale siege equipment, such as rushing cars, arrow towers, etc., and the most advanced catapults in the Qin State.
When Jia Mu heard this, he smiled and said, "Hehe, Commander Zhou, this Zhuge lord's crossbow is called a repeating crossbow, and the arrow is only eight inches. When these words came out, Gao Shun took the lead and said: "Eight inches? Isn't this shorter than an ordinary arrow? Fa Zheng found a different question and said, "Repeater? ”
Jia Mu smiled, and Chong Fazheng nodded: "Yes, it's a crossbow, and the arrow is only eight inches." Chen Lin actually looked at the box that Jia Mu opened, only to see that there was an obviously incomplete tool inside, Chen Lin looked at it and pointed to the box: "Alas, this-"
Jia Mu smiled again: "Lord, in order to keep it secret and beware of being robbed halfway, Lord Zhuge divided the complete repeater into three. In this box, all the parts are the same type, and some other boxes are all the same parts. Jia Xu couldn't help but praise: "Kong Ming is resourceful, like this, even if he is snatched away, I am afraid that others will not know what this thing is." ”
Jamu: "Yes, this kind of repeater is newly developed, and now except for some people, ordinary soldiers will not use it, let alone install it. That's what the French division just asked, a repeater, which can fire ten arrows at once. ”
"What?" It was not an ordinary scream, but a roar, including a calm Jia Xu couldn't help but scream. Shoot ten arrows at once, and this will not give the enemy any life. When Jia Mu saw it, he smiled and waved his hand, beckoned a few cronies, and said, "You open the box over there and put a repeater for the lord and the generals to see." ”
Quiet, quiet, everyone watched with bated breath as a few soldiers unpacked their boxes, with Jamu commanding from the side. When people go to the left, the eyes of Chen Lin and others turn to the left, and when people go to the right, the eyes of Chen Lin and others turn to the right, in short, they can't take their eyes off it.
Soon there was a large crossbow with a shelf in front of them, and it was as big as a man, and he saw Jamu holding something like two planks sandwiched together, and said, "Here are arrows, ten arrows in a row." As long as you put the clip here, press it, and stir the wheel, you can fire arrows, ten in a row, until the clip is finished with arrows, and you don't need to change the arrows halfway, you can fire continuously. ”
Only then did Chen Lin understand that firing ten arrows at one time did not mean ten arrows at once, but ten in a row, and the only difference was that the time to change arrows was saved halfway. But even if this is the case, it is definitely more powerful than the current ordinary bow and crossbow, just imagine you pull the bow and shoot an arrow, one at a time, and I will shoot you directly with a puff.
As soon as Jia Mu said this, if Grandpa Chen Lin was still alive and saw this, he would definitely shout in surprise: "Damn, this is not a magazine, isn't this a machine gun." ”
Gao Shun stepped forward to touch the crossbow like a baby, and after a while, he said, "_Alas, this crossbow is too big, and this bowstring is really." Jamu said, "Yes, therefore, this repeater cannot be used by one person, and it requires at least three people to cooperate before it can be used." At the same time, Lord Zhuge said that even the crossbow is large in size and weight, which is very unfavorable for use in sports, and can only be used to defend cities and camps. ”
"At the same time, in addition to the fact that the repeater can be fired continuously and is fast, it also has many advantages. Because there is no need to draw the bow and shoot arrows as usual, this is not a worry about the arm strength of the soldier. In general archery, often after a soldier has shot a dozen times, he can no longer pull the bowstring. A soldier with a repeater, which can be fired all day long. ”
"What's more, because the crossbow has a shelf that can be fixed, which is of great help to the accuracy of the target, Lord Zhuge said, a soldier who is skilled in using it can almost shoot a hundred shots from a distance of fifty steps."
"What's more, the crossbow mechanism is special, all the arrows are specially made, which is very troublesome, this time, Lord Zhuge ordered people to rush to work for two months, only two thousand arrows."
Jia Mu talked about the advantages and disadvantages of the repeater one by one, and at this time, everyone finally had a new understanding of this repeater, and it seemed that nothing could be perfect.
Chen Lin nodded: "Well, okay, okay, good, with this thing, at least you can ensure that the camp can not be lost when it is not very different." "That's right, if the strength is obvious, not to mention the crossbow, even the machine gun may not be able to save it.
At this time, I saw Jia Mu bowing his head and smiling, and secretly said to Chen Lin: "Lord, it is said that this repeater was designed by Mrs. Zhuge , at least most of it. ”
Chen Lin was shocked, looked at Jia Mu in horror, and kept thinking about Huang Yueying, who was usually looking at Zhuge Liang with a happy smile. Jia Mu looked at Chen Lin's shocked expression and nodded, indicating that it must be true. Chen Lin shook his head, mother, and said, "I can't think of it, I can't think of it." ”
At this time, Zhou Cang saw Jia Mu bowing his head and secretly talking to Chen Lin, and when he saw Chen Lin's expression, he came over one after another: "Lord, what are you talking about, you can't think of anything." ”
Chen Lin looked at it and glared angrily: "It's nothing, I want Zhou Cang to try the power of this repeater to see if you can dodge the attack of the repeater." Of course Chen Lin can't tell the truth, now women are not allowed to show their heads, and this credit has to be recorded on Zhuge Liang.
Zhou Cang thought it was true, ran away in horror, and shouted all the way: "Young Master, I have a stomachache and am gone." "Embarrassed, Gao Shun and the others have long been accustomed to this kind of intimate joke between Chen Lin and Zhou Cang, hahaha laughed, Zhou Cang ran faster.
Chen Lin patted the repeater and said: "This repeater is a good thing, so let's do it, twenty repeating crossbows, now the soldiers will not use them, Guiping, you don't leave in a hurry, stay for ten days, teach the soldiers in the army first, and you can only teach one soldier and horse." Who? At this time, Gao Shun and other generals stepped forward one after another, who didn't want to bring the repeater back to their army.
Chen Lin: "You." Chen Lin pointed to a person and said.
