"This crossbow is a good thing."

Lu Shuang had been stroking the crossbow in his hand, just now he simply threw aside all the government affairs, and went directly to a vacant lot in the city lord's mansion to test the power of the crossbow, and found that this kind of crossbow can not only give the enemy a devastating blow on the battlefield, but even individual combat is also an excellent choice.

The speed of stepping on the crossbow to change arrows is very slow, that is for soldiers, if it is used by military generals, the special grade is the peak of the special general, in fact, it is similar to the ordinary arm crossbow, and it can be wound by hand, but the power of the crossbow is above the arm crossbow, and within a short distance, even the special military general can shoot it, which is not possible with ordinary bows or crossbows.

In addition to Lu Shuang's plan to organize building materials officers and crossbowmen, he also wanted to equip each of his pro-guard Danyang Qingbing with a stepping crossbow, with his positioning of the Danyang Qingbing, it was originally used as a special soldier unit, and the task performed was generally not a confrontation on the frontal battlefield, but a sneak attack behind or other special tasks, such as destroying the enemy's city stele and other relatively small-scale battles, large-scale wars, it is enough to have other seventh- and eighth-order soldiers.

If you continue to implement Lu Shuang's idea, then the Danyang Qingbing configuration of this kind of crossbow will greatly increase their combat effectiveness, after all, the Danyang Qingbing already has the ability to kill the special general, and under normal circumstances, only the Danyang Qingbing who has been promoted to the ninth order can defeat the special general, and the ordinary eighth-order Danyang Qingbing has the strength of a senior general at most, and facing the special general is looking for abuse. This is like a person with a little bit of martial arts foundation, against a martial arts master, it is impossible to win with strength, but everything is possible if someone has a gun.

Although the crossbow is more powerful, the arm crossbow is still the standard configuration of the army, the reason is that on the battlefield, sometimes facing a group of weaker cannon fodder, with an ordinary arm crossbow can also achieve the effect of killing, and the speed of changing arrows is much faster than the crossbow, the physical consumption is small and the crossbow can be fired continuously, the crossbow will only shoot under special circumstances, such as when the opponent sends elite troops or ace troops, this kind of crossbow that can't even prevent fish scale armor can easily cause huge casualties to the opponent's elite, Thus winning the war.

However, now there is one more kind of crossbow, which does not mean that the previous crossbow will be replaced, Lu Shuang has done a lot of arms business so far, and has sold a lot of weapons and plate armor made of fine iron, but the bow has not been sold, only the lowest level of wooden bows and hard bows have been sold for a long time, and then they have been banned from being sold.

In Lu Shuang's view, selling this kind of melee weapons of swords and guns is like selling knives in real life, kitchen knives are sharp but controllable, and they can't cause great casualties, and bows are pistols and shotguns. Lu Shuang didn't want to sell the bows, and then they used them against themselves, no matter how well the soldiers of Flying Sky City were equipped, it would be difficult for them to exert their due strength under the arrows in the sky.

Lu Shuang reluctantly put down the crossbow, held down the idea of wanting to try it, and continued to review the official document submitted below.

At that time, Lu Shuang was also worried that the budget of Huang Shi's three suggestions was very large, and the budget in the proposal he finally saw was within the scope of his acceptance, and it was even 10% lower than he expected. And the content of the plan is very detailed, Lu Shuang looked at the other two prime ministers, but he didn't find any problems, and the expected results made Lu Shuang excited, if he could really achieve such results with less financial expenditure, then the money was really worth it.

The first is about new equipment, in fact, in addition to the crossbow, there are other research inventions, but these are the icing on the cake inventions, the effect is not as significant as the crossbow, Lu Shuang can understand.

In the past, production buildings or production units were all a kind of occupation at work, for example, blacksmith shops generally only have blacksmiths, carpenters in carpentry rooms, etc., sometimes a single occupation will limit people's thinking, and Huang Shi suggested the establishment of the R & D Division, which is a variety of occupations to participate in research and development, such as blacksmiths and tailors to study new types of armor together, carpenters and blacksmiths to develop bed crossbows, etc., although it has not really been developed, Lu Shuang does not know if it can be successful in the end, but at least there is a possibility that the system also said when the **** update, Items from different dynasties will be added to the game, and the complementarity between the various classes will be increased, and it is not impossible to develop some equipment at the lowest rank of the king class.

The second official document of the Ministry of Industry is from the Department of Water Resources, in fact, before Huang Shi made a suggestion to Lu Shuang, the people of the Department of Water Resources roughly wrote the summary of the investigation and the plan expected to be implemented, and only waited for Lu Shuang to nod and agree to start the ground, so in this game for more than a month, a large water canal has been built in the most dense agricultural area in the territory, and a reservoir is under construction, and it is expected that once the water canal and reservoir are completed, it will greatly enhance the local ability to resist drought and flood. Agriculture was the foundation of the state in feudal society, and there was no room for error.

It is worth mentioning that the R&D Division will not only develop weapons and equipment, but also produce tools such as farm tools within the scope of their R&D, but the disadvantage is that it takes up a lot of production time of king-level talents, or all their energy is focused on R&D.

Because of the problem of lack of manpower, the water conservancy department can not start work on multiple lines, at present only in three agricultural areas to build water conservancy measures, it is expected to achieve the results in the plan, it will take more than half a year, but if priority is given to solving the construction of water conservancy measures in intensive agricultural areas, one to two months can be, and in addition to agriculture, there are also fisheries and slaughtering industries, and there are not too many sources of food.

Throughout the history of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there are basically wars and natural disasters, if there is not enough food stored, it will be difficult to move forward in troubled times, so Lu Shuang in addition to collecting agricultural taxes, but also regularly purchase grain from farmers to ensure that there will be no food shortage in a short period of time after natural disasters.

In the report on the demarcation of the shipping route, Lu Shuang learned that all the islands in the East China Sea occupied by Tiefan City had been demarcated the shipping route. In the past, although the connection between islands was roughly known about the location of another island, the sea area was too vast, but there was no special shipping lane, and sometimes some crooked roads would be taken, and one or two voyages to the wrong way were nothing.

After demarcating the shipping lane, the location of all the islands is drawn into a map, or divided into several small maps, for people who go out to sail to confirm the location, and the ships sailing abroad can clearly know how to go and where they have arrived, which provides great convenience for navigation logistics and the flow of people.

In the whole territory, the western part is the area where production and manufacturing originate, while the eastern part is much behind, but the eastern part of the country has a relatively dominant fishery and agricultural and sideline products. The current trade trend is that a large number of manufactured products are sold from the western region to the eastern islands, while the fruits and agricultural products of the eastern islands are sold to the densely populated areas in the west.

It can be said that Lu Shuang has invested a lot of money in these three aspects, but in just two months, he has reaped some results, if Lu Shuang is given some more time, he believes that the territory will be more prosperous and the territory will be stronger. 2k reading web
