In front of Cao Cao, Liu Xie only had the share of being kneaded.

was stared at by Cao Cao's extremely aggressive gaze, and after a short silence, Liu Xie said as usual:

"The prime minister is really my minister of the Han Dynasty, so please leave this matter to the prime minister."

The corners of Cao Cao's mouth raised slightly, and he arched his hand and said:

"The minister will live up to His Majesty's trust!"

Although it is only a formality, it is still important to seek the righteousness of the thief.

After asking for the will, Cao Cao ordered Chen Lin to write an essay to ask Liu Biao and send it directly to Jingzhou.

This Chen Lin was originally Yuan Shao's subordinate, and when Yuan Cao was fighting, it was Chen Lin who wrote an article to beg for thieves, and Cao Cao directly had a headache, but now he has become Cao Cao's person.

After making all these preparations, Cao Cao was ready to go.

The soldiers and horses are complete, and the grain and grass are sufficient.

As soon as the time comes, the army will sweep through Jingzhou, and he will no longer be as embarrassed as Guandu was back then.

……

In the city of Xiangyang.

When he received Cao Cao's message, Liu Qi was quite surprised.

Lao Cao is a cultural person.

Liu Qi, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, all three of them are in the courtyard.

After reading this article, Liu Qi said with a smile:

"It seems that Cao Cao has set the time for the southern expedition, and now he has sent someone to send a text, which is treating Jingzhou as a den of thieves!"

Zhuge Liang is also the first to say:

"What the lord said is very true, now Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, although the lord is a relative of the Han family, but the Son of Heaven is in the hands of Cao Cao, he said that whoever is a thief is a thief!"

Pang Tong said in a deep voice:

"In this text, when Jingzhou is still regarded as Liu Jingzhou, when Cao Jun attacks and sees Jingzhou now, he may be able to surprise Cao Cao."

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

Although at this moment, they dare not say that they are absolutely sure.

But Jingzhou's strength now has won too much than before, but in just a few months, the changes have been earth-shaking.

Looking at Liu Qi, Pang Tong continued:

"By the way, the lord, now that Zhuge repeater has made a hundred, although the craftsmen are working day and night, but after all, the number is limited, and the subordinates feel that as long as they are equipped with an elite first.

I heard that under the command of the lord, there is an elite Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, if they are equipped with this repeating crossbow and charge and shoot on the horse, they may be able to achieve good results. ”

As a friend of Zhuge Liang and now a close confidant of Liu Qi, he knows about Zhuge Lian Crossbow and Xuanjia Iron Cavalry.

Hearing Pang Tong's reminder, Liu Qi suddenly came to his senses:

"What Shi Yuan said is extremely true, my son almost forgot."

Xuanjia Iron rode in Xiangyang City, and Liu Qi hadn't thought about equipping them with a wave of crossbows first.

Although the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry is a heavy cavalry, before charging, use the repeater to output a wave from a distance, and then change to a long lance melee when the time comes, wouldn't it be better to kill and injure the enemy?

Ideas are ideas, but you have to try how it works.

I saw Liu Qilang say in a loud voice:

"It is indeed feasible to equip the Xuanjia Iron Rider with a repeater, why don't I try it now!"

Hearing this, Pang Tong's eyes lit up, and he immediately echoed:

"It's all on the orders of the lord, and my subordinates have been curious about the Xuanjia Iron Horse for a long time, and now they can finally see it."

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but laugh and said:

"The elite of the Xuanjia Iron Rider, even if I told you, it was not white, I still have to see it with my own eyes."

Although I have been in Xiangyang for a while.

But Pang Tong felt that he still didn't know enough about Liu Qi.

Not only the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, but also Liu Qi, Pang Tong had seen him practice martial arts in the courtyard, but he didn't know what his strength was?

There were some things that Zhuge Liang didn't talk to him about.

Liu Qi stood up and said:

"Without further ado, military advisor and Shiyuan, let's go over!"

As for Xue Li, he is in the army at the moment.

With Liu Qi's strength now, he doesn't need bodyguards under normal circumstances, and it is a waste to let Xue Li stay by his side.

And the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry was originally the commander of Xue Li.

The three of them set off.

It was to come to the garrison camp outside the city.

As a cavalry, the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry is somewhat unwieldy if it is in Xiangyang City, and it is much more convenient outside the city.

Even if the elite of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry is indispensable, it is indispensable to practice every day, otherwise the soldiers will be slack, and the combat power will definitely decline.

When going to the barracks, Liu Qi also asked people to fetch the repeater that had been made, and today this repeater and the Xuanjia Iron Horse are the protagonists.

It's not too late.

The three of them came to the barracks.

Go straight to where the Iron Rider is.

On a wide school field, there are fine horsemen galloping.

It's the Xuanjia Iron Horse.

Liu Qi and the three of them did not bother, but watched from a distance, Pang Tong is familiar with military affairs, and he also has experience in military training, and at this moment, when he saw the power of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, he couldn't help but exclaim:

"This is the lord's Xuanjia Iron Horse?"

Pang Tong at this moment is somewhat unbelievable.

Is this kind of fine riding something that Jingzhou can have?

I'm afraid that Cao Cao's elite is far inferior to it.

Zhuge Liang said meaningfully:

"Shi Yuan, don't you think it's incredible?"

Pang Tong was stunned, looked at Zhuge Liang and asked:

"Kong Yin, do you know how this elite cavalry is trained?"

Zhuge Liang shrugged his shoulders and replied calmly:

"Ryo doesn't know."

The corners of Pang Tong's mouth twitched, seeing that Zhuge Liang was so confident, he thought he knew a lot about it!

It seems that not much is known.

In the end, Pang Tong's eyes fell on Liu Qi.

I'm afraid the lord is hiding a big secret!

In addition to this Xuanjia Iron Horse, it is said that the Quyuan plough and the Zhuge crossbow are inextricably linked to the lord.

But these are not easy to ask.

Continue to watch the Xuanjia Iron Horse drill.

A moment later, their traces were finally discovered by Xue Li.

Xue Li hurriedly rode his horse.

Salute in front of Liu Qi and say:

"The last general has seen the lord."

Liu Qi looked at Xue Li and said:

"Rengui, it seems that it is really the right choice for you to practice the Xuanjia Iron Horse here, and now it is becoming more and more elite."

Xue Li was also a little pleased, and arched his hand:

"The lord praised it."

Without delay, Liu Qi got to the point:

"Today, my son came here to test something, I don't know Rengui, have you ever heard of a repeater?"

"When the lord says repeating crossbows, do you mean crossbow arrows that can be fired continuously?"

Xue Rengui said curiously.

Liu Qi nodded, and then beckoned, someone took the Zhuge crossbow, and he said:

"This is Zhuge Repeater, Rengui, you might as well give it a try?"

Hearing the four words Zhuge Lian crossbow, Xue Li subconsciously looked at Zhuge Liang, but he didn't ask anything.

Sensing Xue Li's gaze, Zhuge Liang was a little embarrassed.

After all, although the surname of this repeater is Zhuge , he didn't make it, and he feels a little weak inexplicably.

Holding the Zhuge crossbow, Xue Li studied it.

It's a target.

This repeater can fire ten arrows in a row, and it does not need to be wound during this period. But after ten arrows, it is necessary to reload the arrows.

But on the battlefield, ten arrows are enough.

Five hundred Xuanjia iron cavalry is five thousand arrows, and if you charge head-on, you can completely cause a lot of damage to the enemy.

After a little aiming, Xue Li fired ten arrows in succession without the slightest hesitation.

"Whew! Shout! ”

The sound of arrows breaking through the air came one after another.
