Xun Yu and Guo Jia, in front of Cao Cao, analyzed the pros and cons of Chu's move to Wei from both positive and deceitful aspects.

In general, this is undoubtedly good news for the Wei State - even if the Chu State wants to attack the west, it is undeniable that it is now the stage of "Shengdong", which is better than directly intervening in Liaodong!

From the current point of view, although the state of Chu did not directly respond to the state of Wei, from the point of view of action, it is to use the time of the state of Wei to attack Liaodong to capture Xichuan......

That is, both sides left the Han family aside and stabilized their "rear" - because of the waterway of the Yangtze River, Xichuan should be regarded as the "rear" of Chu to a certain extent.

Now Liu Zhang's weakness is just that, once the Han is lost, the princes of the auxiliary Han will be connected, and then they will have the terrain of Xichuan, the upper reaches of Jing Chu, and they will be backed by the Central Plains, Longyou, and most of the Central Plains, and the Chu State will be very uncomfortable!

That's why the Chu State reacted so "fiercely" when the princes of the Han family wanted to move Hanzhong - this is the current analysis of Chu by Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others.

As for the possibility of "striking the east and attacking the west", it cannot be said that there is nothing, but at least they did not see that now letting Hanzhong be conquered by the Han family, and competing with Wei for Liaodong, what is the benefit to the Chu State, the only thing to guard against should be the two-front battle that the Chu State may "swell"!

Cheng Yu and Man Chong also echoed Xun Yu and Guo Jia's opinions, and Man Chong added a little more mention that recently, in the Wei State, some "disobedient" new wealthy families, I hope that Cao Cao can allow him to be more "ruthless......

But at this moment, Ma Jun, who has always been on such occasions, doesn't talk much, suddenly mentioned: "Wait! King, the marbles mentioned in this third message...... What exactly is it? If it really covers the Chu army, it is likely to greatly change the battle mode of the Chu army, and you have to guard against it! ”

Ma Jun is not surprising in terms of strategy, the reason why he appears here is generally just for the sake of any important new inventions in the craftsman camp, and if there is any strategic impact, others may not be able to realistically predict it, so he is asked to be present to remind him of this matter.

In addition, if for a certain strategy, it is necessary to cooperate with large-scale production or development of a skilled craftsman, and you need to consult whether Ma Jun can do it.

It's just that this time Ma Jun couldn't help but ask a question that had nothing to do with the Skillsmith Battalion, but was related to the Ministry of Industry of Chu!

Indeed, in the new news of the Chu State, the last of the three most important ones is to start training "marbles" in an all-round way.

The sudden spread to the whole army and the training of a new weapon are naturally important news.

Theoretically, this is also a military secret in the Chu State, but because it has been extended to the whole army, it is naturally impossible to keep it secret - in fact, when it was promoted to the captain level before, basically all the princes heard about it, but the news was very vague, and after the real promotion of the whole army, now even the people of Chu know about it......

It's just that I don't understand what the "True Qi Bullet Crossbow" is, but many people have vaguely heard some similar rumors.

Like Wei Guo, he even got the news two years ago.

Bai Tu doesn't expect to keep it secret for a long time, as long as the other party can't get the sample for the time being, even if it is witnessed by spies, unless there is detailed data and evidence to support it, otherwise the news obtained by the princes of all parties must have a certain degree of distortion!

After all, the secret agents at this time, because of the lack of means of contact, the efficiency of passing messages to each other is very low.

The princes of all parties themselves knew this, so they all discounted the information of the spies to believe.

In particular, the assessment of new weapons is not like where there is water, where there is a rebellion, where it is attacked...... The "assessment" itself is very flexible and subjective.

For example, although Wei also had spies, depicting the "grand occasion" of collective training, what sound was like a thunderbolt, penetrating the golden stone, and taking the enemy's life a hundred steps away...... Such descriptions, when I came to Cao Cao, of course, it was good to take a look.

However, Ma Jun paid special attention to this matter through the assembly of the whole army and his sensitivity to the new ordnance of the Chu State......

"Deheng doesn't need to be too nervous, although there are no samples yet, but judging from the description, it must be some kind of long-range military crossbow, and ...... What seems to be a marble the size of a knuckle? What's more, if this thing is really a well-equipped crossbow, how can it equip the whole army? And if the whole army can be assembled, it should only be a cheap substitute for bows and arrows. Liu Ye didn't care very much and persuaded Ma Jun.

"Ahem, ahem...... Deheng's worries...... Ahem, Jia has had it before...... But in fact, there are some small pieces of information in the intelligence...... cough cough cough, Deheng may not have gotten ...... This change of clothes does not involve middle-level officers, in terms of the military rank of Chu State, the school-level generals basically still use the new version of the real qi crossbow improved the year before last, cough cough, and they have not changed their crossbows...... "Guo Jia said a little uncomfortable tomorrow.

However, compared to before, his complexion is better, and after saying a word, he has gasped for breath later.

As Guo Jia said, the reason why he did not show too much vigilance against this big change of clothes in Chu was actually because of the previous intelligence support - this new "crossbow", although it is very special, is obviously just a cheap product!

In terms of pure power, it is not as formidable as the formidable True Qi crossbow of the Chu State, otherwise it would not only be equipped in the soldiers of Ji Zao.

And Ma Jun was very brave this time, and directly refuted Guo Jia, the leader of the Wei State: "No, military advisor, the true qi crossbow of the Chu State, in the state of full true qi, has completely existed for the purpose of sniping generals, the latest true qi crossbow, in terms of pure penetration, is even worthy of the bed crossbow, naturally it is not comparable to ordinary ordnance, but if it is assembled by the whole army, even if it is only stronger than the standard ordinary bow and arrow, it is enough to make a qualitative change in the battlefield!" ”

As for reaching the level of the Chu State's True Qi Crossbow, if it can still be assembled on a large scale...... Then the other princes can also wash and sleep.

"Well, this matter must urge the secret agent, even if you pay some losses, you must get the sample as soon as possible." Cao Cao interjected at this time.

It's also the final verdict on the matter - I can't judge too much, let alone react, for the time being, at least to know what is going on.

It's just that...... What made Ma Jun a little uneasy was that the rest of the Wei State was still very surprised by the great progress in equipment.

If he pushes himself and others, Ma Jun asked himself, what kind of equipment will make him give up swords and spears and let the Wei army fully change its equipment, and faintly use long-range weapons as the main weapon?

Thinking about it like this, Ma Jun became more and more uneasy, but he couldn't give more warnings, so he could only wait anxiously for the samples to be sent as soon as possible!

As for the latest big news in the Chu State, the last remaining one is naturally the official completion of the Hanshui Weir, and the diversion project before the demolition and landfill has begun, and the Hanshui Weir has begun to store water and raise the water level......
