Chapter 112: There's a War
"Get up!"
Zhang Fan raised his hand to signal, and then looked at the strengthened crossbow again.
The strengthened crossbow looked a little bigger than Gu Zong's crossbow, and it took both hands to work together to barely lift it.
Unlike Gu Zong's crossbow, it can be held with one hand, and it is extremely convenient to aim at something.
"Try it!"
After reading it, Zhang Fan looked at Gu Zong and signaled.
Gu Zong got the order and immediately gave the apprentice a signal to start experimenting with the scarecrow.
Whoosh β
The strengthened crossbow was released as soon as it was released, and the sound of breaking the air directly sounded.
Zhang Fan looked shocked and looked straight at the scarecrow.
Along with him, there were also Zhao Zhe and Yixing, who were not very good-looking.
However, when all of them looked over, they were all shocked on the spot, even Jia Xu was no exception.
I saw that the scarecrow, after a finger-thick crossbow arrow was shot, actually broke off at the waist......
It's a little terrifying.
Zhang Fan stepped forward directly, ready to check the scarecrow.
Sensing this, the apprentice immediately put down the strengthening crossbow, for fear of being misunderstood, and directly killed on the spot.
And immediately behind Zhang Fan are Zhao Zhe, Yixing, and Jia Xu.
The group approached the scarecrow and found that the crossbow arrow was only a piercing wound, but the scarecrow was cut off at the waist.
So much so that several people didn't see the reason......
And at this timeβ
Gu Zong stepped forward slowly, looking like my worst cock, and said with a smile: "Lord, this is because this strengthened crossbow has its own critical stunt. β
Just one sentence suddenly made Zhang Fan understand.
However, when he looked at the information, he did not find it......
"That's ...... so"
Zhang Fan understood, and Zhao Zhe and Yixing next to him were naturally no exception.
However, Jia Xu didn't understand too much what was going on.
However, Zhang Fanke didn't explain anything to him, but immediately asked Gu Zong, "Gu Zong, tell me, how long does it take to make this strengthened crossbow?" β
Before, Zhang Fan was still hesitating whether to exchange some crossbowmen for it.
But now, now that you have this crossbow machine, it's completely unnecessary.
He can completely make the local soldiers, that is, the Jingzhou army, become crossbowmen......
And you don't need to do it all, as long as you arm 10,000 people, it will be powerful enough.
Just imagine, 10,000 reinforced crossbowmen, when facing cavalry......
The other party thought that as long as he walked through, he could solve these 10,000 people, but he was currently at a position of fifty meters to strengthen the crossbowmen......
The reinforced crossbowmen are immediately released, and both the war horse and the enemy soldier are suddenly hit by a critical hit, which explodes instantly, either blocking the waist or blurring the flesh and blood.
Then, it is naturally unlikely that these dead cavalrymen are trying to launch the biggest offensive behind.
Self-disarray......
Then, the reinforced crossbowmen at this time were immediately reloaded......
Or 55,000 hair changes......
This is still the time to deal with heavy cavalry, if it is to deal with light cavalry, then it is completely possible to use Gu Zong's crossbow.
Of course, it's a bit more dangerous, but if it's a siege, it's different.
After Gu Zong wore the crossbow, when he attacked the city, he was afraid that the defending side would not even know how to die......
In short, these two crossbow machines can be said to be powerful to a certain extent, and Zhang Fan has attached great importance to them.
Not only him, Jia Xu also naturally saw the doorway here, although the details were not clear, but he attributed it all to Gu Zong's strength.
"Lord, if this can be built in large quantities, it can be distributed to the Jingzhou army."
When Zhang Fan heard this, he smiled directly: "That's exactly what I thought." β
While the two were talking, Gu Zong also immediately answered Zhang Fan's words.
One day can build 100 strengthened crossbows and 200 Gu Zong's repeater crossbows.
The former has a range of up to 50 meters, and the latter, even if it is weaker than a reinforced crossbow, is not bad, with an effective range of 30 meters.
Moreover, the most important thing is that this is still the time when the two are built together, and this output has made Zhang Fan very satisfied.
However, he still asked Gu Zong if he could increase the production volume a little.
It's a pity that Gu Zong said that it is already the largest production, which is considered the limit.
"Okay, since that's the case, you can arrange it immediately when you go back, how much money you need just apply, in short, I want to see 10,000 Gu Zong strengthened crossbows and 20,000 Gu Zong repeater crossbows as soon as possible."
In a word, the strengthened crossbow was named again, and Gu Zong was even more like a chicken blood, nodding directly, saying that he would ensure that the task was completed.
"By the way, what about the siege crossbow?"
Before Gu Zong could mention the matter of the siege crossbow, Zhang Fan, who had known about it for a long time, asked directly.
"If you go back to the lord, the so-called siege crossbow is a large siege equipment issued like a catapult, but compared to a catapult, the siege crossbow is not very convenient to carry."
"Moreover, disassembly and assembly require professionals to carry out it."
"In terms of size, the siege crossbow is not too bulky, not very large."
Hearing this, Zhang Fan became more and more interested.
He had also heard of siege crossbows, but that was limited to them.
Now that he heard Gu Zong's introduction, he was immediately interested.
"If you can introduce it like this, I'm afraid the power won't be bad, right?"
A strengthened crossbow is so powerful, if the siege crossbow does not have such power, then there is no need to research it at all.
Sure enoughβ
Gu Zong smiled meaningfully: "Naturally. β
"However, this siege crossbow has only been created by its subordinates, and it can't be copied, even if it can be built by subordinates, it is not the same siege crossbow, and it will take some time."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Fan was not very happy.
Together, you can make one, and the second one doesn't know when.
And it's unique......
Thinking of this, Zhang Fan was even more interested, and felt that there might be some surprises.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Zong said again: "However, the power of this siege crossbow will definitely make the lord shocked. β
"In this way, the next time the lord wants to attack which city, inform his subordinates, and I will personally send someone to carry this siege crossbow with the lord, and then the lord will know how terrible this power is."
The more he talked, the more interested Zhang Fan became, but it was limited to interest.
Now, he really doesn't have any cities to attack, if he fights, it will be Cao Cao's Nanyang, after all, it is one of the nine counties of Jingzhou.
Other than that, that's the Jiangxia of the big-eared thief.
However, he was not in a hurry, but now his words ......
He felt that it was time to reclaim Cao Cao's Nanyang.
Letters and messengers, he felt that there was no need, and it was enough to take people directly to fight.
Thinking of this, he immediately became interested.
"Then you go ahead and arrange it immediately, we are about to have a war......"
