Chapter 79: The Princess Asks for Battle
"There are a lot of weapons."
Lao Hai gave Xiao Yuan a good look: "There are bows and arrows, spears, axes, ......"
"So many weapons, Hai Daweng, you can change your weapons to fight the people of the country, with bows and arrows!"
Xiao Yuan's good eyes sparkled in the light of the fire: "The bow and arrow shoot far, you don't have to fight in close combat." ”
Lao Haile said: "Little general, the princess is worthy of being the granddaughter of the prince, at this young age, she still knows hand-to-hand combat." ”
Sun Chi was also surprised: "How did Ah Hao know?" ”
"The third brother has a lot of scripts there, I saw it from the books."
Another back-handed man, the third son, made a grand appearance.
Sun Chi snorted: "The third son can't read, it's useless to watch it!" Don't talk to your aunt about the book. ”
Xiao Yuan was perfunctory, and asked about the weapon: "Hai Daweng, in the future, you will use bows and arrows to shoot a group of people from a long distance first, so that you can also reduce the casualties of our soldiers." ”
Lao Hai immediately put away his smile and said extremely seriously: "Your Highness doesn't know the cunning of this Qianguo people. ”
He was a good old soldier, in awe of the battlefield and of those with whom he had serious discussions about warfare.
Even if the other party is only a five-year-old child, as long as he asks about the war, Lao Hai will treat him solemnly.
"No matter how cunning you are, you can't escape the range of a bow and arrow."
Lao Hai pulled the clothes on his body and gestured to Xiao Yuan: "Your Highness, please see, if the armor on our Dayan soldiers is so thick, then the armor of the people of the Qian country is three times that of ours, and their horses also have armor." Our bows and arrows can't shoot through at all. ”
Xiao Yuan was so speechless: "I saw it in "Dongxia Public Opinion", saying that the country of Xia produces war horses and is good at fighting immediately. But there is too little description of the kingdom in the book, and only a few sentences are mentioned. If there are no minerals and it is a nomadic people, how can there be so much armor? ”
At this moment, even Sun Chi seriously discussed with Xiao Yuanhao: "The person who wrote this book must not have been to these places in person, but it was just done behind closed doors." There's something in there, you don't have to take it seriously. The kingdom was divided into four tribes. ”
Sun Chi stretched out his finger and dipped it in wine, and drew it on the table for Xiao Yuan to look good: "Tata Department, Qinkeya Department, Qiqiha Department, Aliko Department." The sphere of influence divided by each ministry is different, and the products produced are also different. ”
He pointed to the location of the Tata Ministry: "The Tata Ministry's sphere of influence is the largest and the most powerful. When we went to war, it was the Tata Ministry who took the lead. ”
Someone laughed a few times: "No matter how strong you are, aren't you still beaten away by our Cangzhou army?" Bohatubak of the Nata Tata Department heard that he couldn't even sleep well now, and he was huddled in his tent all day, for fear that when he went out, his head would be cut off by one of his sons! ”
The crowd burst into laughter again.
Sun Chi picked up the wine in front of him and drank it all: "Happy!" "It's like going back to the era of the silver spear and the white horse.
Xiao Yuanhao was also infected by this, followed by blind coaxing, clapping his hands and shouting.
Su Su hurriedly reminded Xiao Yuan that if he let the female monarch inside know that the princess was not doing right, he would be angry again.
Xiao Yuanhao stuck out her little tongue at Su Su, she pulled Sun Chi's sleeve, and said, "Uncle, you haven't told me yet, where did the country get so much armor?" ”
She listened to Sun Chi's description of the tribes in the Qiang Kingdom, and there were many questions: "The Tata Department was beaten away by us, so are the other tribes in the Karma Kingdom honest?" Will they take revenge on the Tata Ministry? ”
The crowd fell silent.
Xiao Yuan kindly said that it was going to be bad, didn't she really let her say it?
"I haven't heard of anything else." Lao Hai scratched his scalp embarrassedly, "Your Highness, we have been in this Zhuangzi for more than ten years, and we can't even read the newspaper, and we don't know what is going on outside." ”
Someone coaxed blindly: "Lao Hai, what you said seems to be able to understand it if you report to your mansion!" ”
There was another burst of laughter.
Lao Hai got up and shouted, "Go, go!" Are you literate? I don't know as many words as I do, but I can at least keep accounts now, do you? ”
Everyone laughed loudly at Lao Hai, and the topic was further away.
Sun Chi didn't join, although he had been abandoned for more than ten years, he had been paying attention to the movement outside.
I heard that an eagle on the grassland appeared in the Qinkeya tribe, and he was leading people to fight everywhere in an attempt to unify the Qinkeya tribe.
This son is quite ambitious, and if the war between Dayan and the Kingdom of Shan resumes in the future, I am afraid that this son will provoke it.
He was silent, and the girl next to him slowly leaned over: "Uncle, did you buy the armor of the Qi Kingdom from the Qin State?" ”
Sun Chi raised his eyebrows: "How do you know?" ”
"What I saw from the "Dongxia Public Opinion" that there were a lot of iron mines in the Qin State, and they valued business over agriculture. I just thought, maybe it was the Qin State that secretly sold the ironclad weapons to the Qiang State......"
"It's not secret," Sun Chi corrected her, "it's above board." ”
Xiao Yuan was taken aback, above board? Then the Qin State is blatantly making enemies of Dayan!
Lao Hai also came over and snorted loudly and coldly: "Then the old ladies of the Qin Kingdom are not good birds!" ”
"Uncle Hai," Sun Chi coughed, "Ah Hao is still young." ”
Lao Hai smiled embarrassedly again: "Princess, I mean, the old queen mother of the Qin State has bad intentions, and the armor she sold to the Qin State is particularly thick, so she deliberately can't get along with us." ”
Xiao Yuan lowered his head and pondered, wanting to penetrate the heavy armor, ordinary bows and arrows can't work, what about crossbow arrows?
There seemed to be a lightning bolt in her head, and the fog in front of her was split at once: "Zhuge Repeater!" ”
"What?" Sun Chi didn't hear clearly, "What do you want?" ”
Xiao Yuan grabbed Sun Chi's arm tightly excitedly: "Uncle, do you know the Zhuge Repeater?" Do you have one? ”
Sun Chi had never heard of this thing: "What is so funny?" Where did you hear that? ”
He just regarded it as a child's thing, touched Xiao Yuan's good bag, and said with a smile: "In the future, don't read the third son's notebook, and don't say these words in front of your aunt, your aunt will be angry when she hears it." ”
"No, no, no!"
Xiao Yuanhao didn't know how to explain to Sun Chi, so he could only try to compare: "It's a large bow and arrow shaped like a bow and arrow, how can I tell you, just with this Zhuge crossbow, no matter how thick the armor is, it can pierce it, and it can shoot ten shots at a time!" ”
"It turned out to be a crossbow arrow, I've seen this thing, a two-arrow repeater and a three-arrow repeater, but I've never heard of a one-shot ten-arrow."
"Hey! I've seen it! Lao Shi jumped out, "Lao Hai, we originally met Bohatubak's eldest son in Shizipo, there are many of them, but there are few of us. In the beginning, we just tied ten bows to a cart or a stone, pulled them with a rope, and shot ten arrows at once! ”
"Go, go, go! Isn't that a bad idea of yours! Lao Hai seemed very annoyed when he mentioned this, "What's the use?" When you pull the rope, there are many arrows, but they are just to scare people, and not a single arrow is far! ”
Xiao Yuan was so anxious: "That's not what I'm talking about!" I'm talking about a repeating crossbow that can hit ten arrows in one shot! ”
