Chapter 137: War Dividends

Yang Zilu raised her hand embarrassedly, rubbed her nose, changed the topic, and asked, "Lao Kan, how many people were killed and wounded in this battle?" How many people were captured? ”

Kan Pingtian didn't know Yang Zilu's careful thoughts, and said helplessly: "The master will be ruthless next time!" Be merciful, and you will lose everything, your parents, your wives and concubines, your children, your possessions! You have to understand that to be merciful to your enemies is to be cruel to yourself! ”

When Yang Zilu heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart, he felt that Kan Pingtian had also made a mistake caused by kindness before, otherwise there would be no tone in his voice. Yang Zilu nodded seriously and said, "I'll pay attention next time!" ”

Kan Pingtian also knew that Yang Zilu, who couldn't be forced, was too much, and replied to Yang Zilu's question just now: "There are not many casualties this time, only three clansmen were killed in battle, and more than 1,500 were captured, but more than half of them were wounded soldiers and needed treatment, which was very troublesome, and I don't know how many people could survive." More than 300 bronze weapons of various kinds were seized, enough to feed 2,000 people for four days. Unfortunately, the bowstrings of the gulls were all soaked, and there were only 300 replacement bowstrings. ”

"This war is a great profit!" When Yang Zilu heard this, she was overjoyed. However, hearing so many wounded soldiers, Yang Zilu couldn't help frowning and said, "Is the medicinal material enough?" So many wounded soldiers? ”

"Barely enough herbs! During this time, there are a lot of hemostatic herbs collected, according to the master's method, the hemostatic medicine prepared by drying it in the sun and grinding it into powder is not as effective as fresh hemostatic herbs, but it is easy to preserve, and the quantity is large. However, many people's flesh is rotten, and this is the most troublesome. In addition, if we do our best to treat these wounded soldiers, once war breaks out, we may not have any medicinal materials to use. Kan Pingtian said.

Yang Zilu gritted his teeth and said, "Send some people to the vicinity to see if there are any medicinal materials to stop bleeding." In addition, some medicinal materials should be preserved, and as for those that can't be saved, don't bother with them, give them a good time. ”

When Kan Pingtian heard this, his eyes flashed with a touch of relief, and he said, "Master, this is a big thing!" ”

Yang Zilu smiled bitterly and said: "We are not invincible in the world now, I am responsible for my people." To be honest, this decision is also very difficult for me, collect fresh medicinal materials and give priority to the injured captives, anyway, the medicinal materials have been reduced for a long time. By the way, can you launch an attack on the servant department this afternoon? ”

Kan Pingtian shook his head and said expressionlessly: "Now I have to tell the master the bad news for you, that is, the compound bow made by the Imperial Eye has been scrapped at least eighty percent!" At least 30% of the crossbow! This is still the most conservative scruples. This could not suppress the archers at the head of the city of the Servant Division. ”

"What? How so? Yang Zilu couldn't help but be anxious when he heard this, not only to delay the war, but also to lose money!

It takes thirty days to go from freshly cut wood to a composite bow. This is also because Yang Zilu built a stove and dried the wood a little, reducing the time for the wood to dry. If you sell it in Vietnam, it is conservatively estimated that it will cost 300 yuan. Based on the current degree of equipment loss, Yang Zilu has lost more than 50,000 yuan this time. Yang Zilu's flesh hurts!

"The compound bow made by Mitsu is not painted! Once soaked in rainwater, the gelatin will fall off. The master invented the crossbow better, with a fine hemp rope to protect the crossbow arm, and the dependence on the bamboo piece is not large, and the foot piece still uses a certain combat power after it falls off. Kan Pingtian said casually.

When Yang Zilu saw Kan Pingtian's expression, she couldn't help but be furious, yes! I don't say anything when I know that the paint can be waterproof. It's still as if nothing happened!

Kan Pingtian seemed to know what Yang Zilu was thinking, but he didn't mean to be scared at all, and continued to act as if nothing happened, spread his hands and said: "I'm not a craftsman, I just remember that the bows I used before were all painted, but I didn't care too much." Only today did I find out that lacquering can be waterproof! ”

Yang Zilu couldn't help but feel depressed when she heard this. He was not depressed because of Kan Pingtian's explanation, and it was not that he didn't believe Kan Pingtian's words. People have always paid little attention to some small things, the most obvious example is gravity, which humans are exposed to every day. And how many years of human history is there? Before Newton, there were not 100 but 90 sages and sages in the West and China, but it was not until the seventeenth century that Newton discovered gravity.

Besides, Kan Pingtian was also a small nobleman in the past, so where could he learn about the procedures and effects of craftsmen making bows. Except for a few vassal states, the other vassal states despised workers and merchants. It's normal for Kan Pingtian not to pay attention.

"And how many more crossbows are available?" Yang Zilu said depressedly.

Kan Pingtian frowned slightly, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said: "There should be about fifty crossbows in terms of crossbows, and there are about thirty bows left, and this is still the hunting bow captured from the Gull Department. However, it has not been liquidated, and it may be less! ”

Yang Zilu was depressed when he heard this, how could the siege city suppress the enemy's archers without crossbowmen. Yang Zilu scratched his head and said, "Forget it, send someone to persuade the servants to surrender, don't enter the city." Just take the tin horn and shout outside. Lest the old boy want to touch the stone with an egg and die a clansman in vain! ”

"Yes! If the servant does not agree, is it a siege? Kan Pingtian asked.

"Attack the fart! Without bow and crossbow suppression, I don't know how much the number of dead and wounded will increase, and everyone is tired today, let's attack the city tomorrow! Let people clean up like this! Alas! The tent is still too small, and next time I go to Juwucheng, I have to buy some linen cloth and come back! Write down this matter, Lao Kan, and remember to remind me next time I go to Juwucheng! Yang Zilu said to Kan Pingtian.

"Master, it's better for you to make a small book out of straw paper and record it yourself!" Kan Pingtian said with a little dissatisfaction.

Yang Zilu smiled wryly, now he feels that the relationship between Kan Pingtian and himself is simply the relationship between the landlord and the tenant in the movie played in the liberation era, and it is no wonder that Kan Pingtian is dissatisfied.
