Chapter 308: Cavalry Troops
"How far can you hit!" Looking at the behemoth in front of him, Li Hao's blood boiled.
The supervisor of the casting department trotted forward and said with a smile: "Don't worry, owner, I guarantee that you are satisfied!" Come on, try to shoot a stone, let the owner see our strength! ”
Several shirtless men immediately ran to the catapult and pulled down the catapult.
I only heard a search, and a boulder the size of two adults rose into the air, flew straight for more than a hundred feet, and then smashed heavily on the ground.
The hard boulder was completely shattered by the distance, and even from this distance, everyone felt a terrifying tremor under their feet.
Li Hao couldn't help but tremble, staring at the boulder that had turned into pieces in the distance.
It is worthy of being a weapon of war, and its destructive power cannot be countered by manpower.
Even Li Hao was powerless to resist in front of the flying boulder.
On the one hand, Li Mingda looked even more stupid. She was brought up by Li Shimin since she was a child, and Li Shiming was the famous His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and often taught him some knowledge of weapons.
Li Mingda still remembers that Li Shimin told himself very clearly back then. The effective attack distance of the trebuchet is about 240 meters. But the trebuchet made by Li Hao easily flew out for 300 meters. This is clearly not its limit.
Like Lijiazhuang's crossbow, this trebuchet is a powerful weapon that transcends the enemy's range.
Immediately afterwards, the forging minister asked people to launch several siege equipment, what battering rams, ladders, engineering building vehicles, all available.
Although the number of each is not large, so many behemoths towering around them still make people feel bursts of pressure coming.
"It's so beautiful, you used to make things, and you still want me to teach you. I didn't expect you to be able to figure it out for yourself now! ”
In the past, in order to teach these ancients how to grow rice, they were about to kill Li Hao, but now such a sophisticated siege equipment, they can complete it independently, which really surprises Li Hao.
"That's it, no matter what, I'm also a top student who graduated from Lijiazhuang University!" The forging minister patted his chest rather proudly.
Li Hao then remembered that many students had graduated from Lijiazhuang's school one after another. Many people have been sent to Datang for further study and have been sought after by all walks of life.
After seeing all the engineering equipment, Li Hao praised the villagers of the forging department, and then said that in the recent period, Li Jiazhuang will concentrate all his strength to support them in manufacturing engineering equipment, no matter what, it must be within two months, so that this batch of engineering equipment can form a scale.
With the encouragement of the owner, the forging department is full of energy. Without the slightest hesitation, the minister set up this grim task.
Bidding farewell to the forging department, Li Hao grabbed Li Zhong and returned to the mansion.
"The spider silk armor is to show friendship in the first battle of the Turks, expand the scale of snow spider cultivation as soon as possible, or two months, we must form a spider silk armor team of no less than three thousand people!"
Li Hao sat on the main seat and said to Li Zhong very seriously.
Li Zhong pondered for a moment and nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, owner, within two months, even if I don't eat or sleep, I will definitely make the spider silk armor!" ”
"Thank you!" Li Hao didn't say anything, just cast a trusting look at him.
Immediately afterwards, Li Hao took a trip to the cavalry training camp.
Since Yu Wenqi came to Lijiazhuang, he has taken over the position of cavalry instructor, and the cavalry troops in Lijiazhuang have all been brought out by him.
When Li Hao arrived at the training camp, he was training a group of Xing soldiers and instructing them on how to slash and kill on war horses.
As a former general of the Xiaoguo Army, Yu Wenqi has rich cavalry experience, commanding this group of new guests to hold the handle, and quickly obey the training of this group of people.
"On the battlefield, the war horse is your friend, you must believe in the war horse in order to defeat the enemy! After today's training, you have to clean your horses, and tomorrow if you see a stain on your horses, I will skin you! ”
"Yes, Instructor!"
"All of them, ride a war horse, and do charge training!"
"Get on your horse, charge!"
More than 100 cavalrymen galloped out on horseback, and shouts of killing echoed in the training camp.
"Yuwen's predecessors have strict vocational education, rain or shine, and the younger generations are extremely impressed!"
Li Hao stepped forward and praised Yu Wenqi.
Yu Wenqi glared at Li Hao angrily: "The cavalry team I finally pulled up, if you take it out, you will break it in half, the old man is not working hard, and the cavalry of Lijiazhuang must not be defeated by you!" ”
Li Hao smiled a little embarrassedly.
He didn't know how precious the cavalry of Lijiazhuang was, and he was distressed after losing so much. But on the battlefield, in the face of the Han compatriots who were brutalized by the Turks, Li Hao was enthusiastic about commercial business, and he didn't care so much. It wasn't until after the battle that I realized that so many people had been lost.
Yu Wenqi also smiled bitterly: "Alas, forget it, where are the immortals in the war." You can sweep through the Turks with the sweaty cavalry and replay the glory of the Xiaoguo army, and the old man can be regarded as very relieved! ”
"Xiaoguo Army!" When Li Mingda heard this name, he covered his mouth in fright.
Yu Wenqi was stunned, frowned and looked at Li Mingda: "Who is this little girl?" ”
"This is Princess Jinyang, Li Mingda!"
Li Hao did not hide it and directly reported Li Mingda's name.
This time it was Yuwenqi's turn to be afraid, he had also heard Li Mingda's name, wasn't it the youngest daughter of the emperor Li Shimin? Just now, I actually said the name of Xiaoguo Jun in front of her, isn't it equivalent to exposing my identity?
Unexpectedly, after Li Mingda was slightly startled, he immediately put on a respectful expression and bowed deeply to Yu Wenqi.
"Since I was a child, Mingda has listened to my father's prestige of the fruit army, and today I see that it is really extraordinary, the predecessors are above, Mingda will see you!"
"What, Li Shi...... Did your father speak of us? ”
Li Mingda raised his head, his eyes were full of determination: "Yes, when I was a child, my father often mentioned the name of the Xiaoguo Army to me, he said that although you are enemies, the Xiaoguo Army is brave and fearless, galloping on the battlefield, and is a model for all armies. ”
"This ......" Yuwenqi has a grudge against Datang, so he has been staying in Lijiazhuang and never going out to see the outside world. But now that he was so praised by the enemy's daughter, he couldn't help but blush a little.
Li Hao smiled and started the round: "Don't seniors often say it? The one who understands you best is always your enemy, and the predecessors have been enemies with King Qin for so long, so you should know what kind of person he is. He will not show mercy in battle, but after the battle, he will still admire his respectable opponents! ”
Yu Wenqi nodded silently. In fact, why didn't he know that Li Shimin was a good emperor? If it weren't for the fact that each was his master back then, he would also be willing to follow King Qin to fight the world.
"Senior Yuwen, the way of this world has completely changed, if you have the opportunity, you can go out with Li Zhong and the two to have a look." Li Hao persuaded with a smile, and then opened the topic: "Senior, how many cavalry are available in our Lijiazhuang now?" ”
"I thought you would be a loser, but now there are 5,000 cavalry available in Lijiazhuang."
Although it was full of complaints, Yu Wenqi still gave a specific number.
"Very good, the seniors have been working hard for the past two months, I need your cavalry to help, the more the better!"
