After the Great War in the Central Plains, Cao Cao harvested countless ordnance and war horses, which made Lu Bu extremely greedy.

If you want to say comfort, it is that these heavy crossbows in front of him can still make his heart feel better.

These Xiandeng heavy crossbows were the trophies captured during the surprise attack on Yuan Tan's camp, and the power was seen by Lu Bu himself, and of the more than 10,000 people he brought with him at that time, at least two or three thousand fell under the firepower of these heavy crossbows.

So he was more and more able to forgive Wei Xu for the fact that they were shot by the first camp when they rushed into battle with the cavalry, but it was a pity that Wei Xu and Hou Cheng died on the battlefield.

It was also because of their death that Cao Xing, Song Xian and Cheng Lian were hidden, and this time it was through Zhang Yang that Lin Mo was finally willing to let go and threw them to Anfeng to garrison.

"These people seem to be in your camp?" On the martial arts field, Lu Bu was about to take a look at whether he was still comfortable with the first camp, but he found that he was familiar with the faces after a few glances.

According to his request, it is to let Gao Shun select the elite from the existing battalions to train, and it is best to train to be like the first battalion in the northern country, even if he is slashed and killed in the back, he is unmoved, and he deserves to be the elite of the world.

Lu Bu frowned and looked at Gao Shun on the side, waiting for him to explain to himself.

"Wen Hou, each pair of this heavy crossbow weighs more than 100 catties, and it is extremely difficult to carry it on its back, and it is necessary to adjust the crosshairs before each launch, ordinary sergeants can't do it at all, let the brothers in the camp try their hands first." Gao Shun said that he was also very difficult.

Lu Bu was a little dissatisfied, but he could only wave his hand and said, "Then I'll take a few rounds of test shots first." ”

"Whoa!"

With Gao Shun raising his right hand, the fifty trapped camp sergeants carried the heavy crossbow on their shoulders, marched to the designated position, and then fixed the heavy crossbow, and after slightly calibrating the direction, they all aimed at the target a hundred steps away.

Seeing this, Gao Shun waved down his right hand.

Bell bell~

A huge off-string sound erupted, and fifty thick arrows swept by.

In the next second, a shocking scene appeared, only more than ten of the fifty arrows hit the target, and none of the ones that hit the red heart appeared.

Lu Bu looked at Gao Shun in a daze, what about the trouble?

Yan Liang on the side laughed heartily, and almost rolled on the ground, causing Lu Bu to turn his head and glare angrily.

It's not just Lu Bu, Zhang Xiu, Wei Yue, Gao Shun and others are all fierce, you're afraid you don't know what your identity is, right?

Wen Chou's EQ is still higher, so he hurriedly stepped forward and handed it over, "Wen Hou, the crosshairs of this first heavy crossbow are extremely difficult to master, and at the beginning, Lu Yi only selected 800 people from the 100,000 army, and these 800 people have been trained for two years before they can get started."

In order to create a second first battalion, it has to be hard training for many years, and it is not easy to just aim on the spot, and it is necessary to predict the moving target during the march in order to kill with one hit, so the first battalion has not been able to expand. ”

I see, Lu Bu nodded.

At first, he thought that it was because these heavy crossbows were too expensive to build, and Yuan Shao was reluctant to do it, it turned out that the most rare thing was not the heavy crossbows, but the training of sergeants who could manipulate these heavy crossbows.

This training of aiming on the spot can be said to be a basic skill, and what you really need to be proficient in should be like Wen Chou said, you can enter the battle at any time during the march, and be able to accurately predict the position, and kill with one blow, how easy it is to do this step.

"Isn't that useless for me?" Lu Bu said that it was so depressing, if you can't even use it in the camp, can you find someone else to use it?

"Even if it's an elite like our Northern Army, not everyone can use it, and that's not surprising." Yan Liang showed a touch of pride.

"Why was your Northern Army so elite that you were beaten and ran away with your tail between your legs?" Wei Yue couldn't bear it anymore, and sprayed at Yan Liang.

"Do you want to fight?" Yan Liang was not frightened at all, and slammed the gold-backed knife in his hand.

"Aren't you the general of the three armies of the Northern Kingdom, come on, come on, I'll see how good you can fight." Zhang Xiu also jumped out, holding the tiger's head golden gun in one hand and waving towards Yan Liang with the other.

Wen Chou immediately blocked in front of Yan Liang, but he didn't say anything that lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to his eyes, and looked at Wei Yue and Zhang Xiu coldly.

Lin Mo on the side shook his head helplessly, good guy, these fierce generals together are love to convince people with virtue.

To say that this Yan Liangwen Chou is also a typical person with developed limbs and a simple mind, he has not yet changed from the status of a general of the 700,000 army, and has forgotten his status in this Lu camp.

Or maybe they, the fierce generals who are proud of the world, have always regarded themselves so highly.

"Are they all capable of fighting?" After Lu Bu snorted, the big guy was quiet, with all due respect, everyone here is a spicy chicken!

Of course, Zhang Xiuwei Yue knew what the gap between himself and Lu Bu was, and even Wen Chou didn't dare to look at Lu Bu directly, and still remembered the picture when he was beaten by him and couldn't even hold the weapon steadily.

Yan Liang has never competed with Lu Bu, but he and Wen Chou often have a fight, and the martial arts of the two are considered to be between the two, and even Wen Chou can't withstand thirty rounds, so he won't see where to go.

This is the domineering spirit of the old father-in-law, Lin Mo wanted to laugh, but this atmosphere was not suitable, so he stepped forward and persuaded: "Uncle Zhang doesn't care that Uncle Zhang wants his father-in-law to build ordnance at military expense, and handing over these heavy crossbows to him is enough for him to toss." ”

Lu Bu's eyes rolled, revealing a chicken thief's smile, "Yes, yes, yes, his group of Yanmen guards have good martial arts, and they can also manipulate these heavy crossbows, let him practice slowly." ”

This thing can't be practiced in a few years, and handing it over to Zhang Liao is just enough to make him settle down, and he wants to take his hundreds of people to toss if he has nothing to do.

"That's a good idea, just do as you say."

Lu Buyi waved his hand happily, "It's all gone." ”

On the way, Lu Bu pinched his clothes and muttered uncomfortably: "These two people are a little troublesome, they have a very bad temper, and they think they are generals in the north, they ask for a lot, and they don't see any merits, so sooner or later, the army will not be able to tolerate them." ”

"It's okay, Master Yue-in-law doesn't have to worry about them, I'll clean it up." Most of the waywardness of the child is owed, and it is good to beat it up.

So, on the same day, Lin Mo took Zhao Yun to the two of them for a drink.

In fact, they are still very easy to get along with, and occasionally jump out because they can't fully adapt to the life of Lu Ying, which is understandable, who is not like this.

"General Wen and General Yan's face is not small, after you get together, my father-in-law will happily return all the more than 10,000 prisoners of war from the Northern Kingdom to Yuan Tan, this is all for your face." Lin Mo, who is well versed in communication, is a plan to raise high.

People love to listen to good words.

The two glanced at each other, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "The Marquis of Lanling has an overreputation, but he is just a general of the defeated army." ”

See, they also know how to be humble.

Lin Mo pondered for a moment, and then said: "Actually, the two generals are loyal to the old favor, and my father-in-law has always admired loyal people the most, and even intended to let the two generals return to the northern country. ”

"Really?" Yan Liang stood up excitedly when he heard this, and Wen Chou also looked at Lin Mo with burning eyes.

Others said they didn't believe it, but what kind of person is Lin Mo, who exists above 10,000 people under one person in the nine counties of these two states, and he is okay.

"Of course it's true, but."

Lin Mo paused, and whetted the appetite of the two of them, before he said in a deep voice: "You also have to be considerate of his difficulties, when the more than 10,000 prisoners of war were released, there was a wave of opposition in the army, if you let the two of you go again, there will be a mutiny." ”

This is the truth, and the two of them also understand, after all, in the battle of Qingzhou, many people died at the end of Lu Ying, and they must also have an explanation.

"I'll give you two generals an idea, and I may be able to help you both return to the Northland."

Hearing this, both of them took the initiative to move their stools to Lin Mo's position, and listened carefully, "A few days ago, a group of mountain bandits from Mount Tai came to Xuzhou, and the two of you can ask for orders to pay off, and after the matter is done, you will run away, so that my father-in-law will also have an explanation for the people below, right?" ”

It makes sense, Yan Liang's eyes flashed as soon as he heard it, "Thank you Lord Hou for your kindness, I will remember this kindness." ”

"But. . . Even if Wen Hou agreed, would the others be willing to let our brother go? Wen Chou's mind is still relatively thoughtful, the fox asked.

"It doesn't matter, there has always been a rule in the army that the military will compete in martial arts, and when the time comes, there will be a competition on the martial arts field." Saying that, Lin Mo didn't forget to raise his eyebrows, revealing an expression that you know.

"Wen Hou won't end up in person, right?" Wen Chou asked with palpitations.

"General Wen, what is this called, my father-in-law is so bad that the princes of one side, how can he run the martial arts arena and compete with his subordinates?"

Makes sense, makes sense.

Yan Liang was full of enthusiasm and high spirits, these days he has been ridiculed by Gao Shun, Wei Yue and Zhang Xiu, this time I want to use my strength to tell them the horror of the generals of the three armies in the north.

Wen Chou is also very confident, as long as Lu Bu does not play, he does not believe that anyone else can win against the two of them.

"Two generals, Lord Yue's benevolence and righteousness to you have been done."

Lin Mo said earnestly: "In order to ensure that you can win, Zhang Liao, the strongest general under his command, came to Pengcheng to deliver the tax account books this time, but he also stopped him, if you don't win again, you can't complain about anyone." ”

"Don't worry, Marquis Lanling, if our brother can't even do this little thing, and he doesn't have the face to mention the matter of returning to the northern country, please bring a message to Wen Hou, just say that our brother is grateful for his great kindness." Yan Liang slapped his chest, full of confidence.

"By all means."

Lin Mo yawned and stood up, "It's not too early, so I won't bother the two of you." ”

After some greetings, the two enthusiastically sent Lin Mo to the door, smiling all the time.

"Zilong, you also saw Wen Chou and my father-in-law compete with your own eyes, do you think you can win in a few rounds?" On the way, Lin Mo asked casually.

"Within the lily, you can take it; Yan Liang's words haven't been fought yet, so I don't dare to confirm it. "Zhao Yun is still very honest.

"If you can win Wen Chou, you can win Yan Liang."

Lin Mo turned around and glanced at the mansion of the two, and the corners of his mouth outlined a smile, let you be proud, when the time comes, you will be hammered by Zilong in front of the three armies, and see if you are still arrogant.

For this reason, he also deliberately emphasized that Liao Shen is the most capable of fighting under the old father-in-law, after all, there are 800 and 30,000 records there, and they will not have much doubt.

With Zhao Yun's ravage, the two of them will be much more honest in the future.

After returning to the Lin Mansion, it was already late at night, but Lu Lingqi and Guo Zhao didn't sleep, not only did they not sleep, but there were also two twenty-eight girls standing in the hall.

The girl has bright eyes and bright teeth, skin like snow, and a concave and convex body, which is typical of the characteristics of the Jiangnan water town.

"The queen of the people, Lan and Chen Di, have seen the Marquis of Lanling." The second daughter owes herself a blessing.

"The person you want."

Without waiting for Lin Mo to ask, Lu Lingqi opened her mouth to introduce, "Wang Lan, a native of Lujiang, her parents starved to death when they were under Yuan Shu's rule, and she migrated to the land of the three counties with the homeless people, and when I found out, I was almost sold to a brothel;

Chen Di, a native of the East China Sea, whose parents were killed when Cao Cao slaughtered the city, has been living by begging.

I can't talk about being proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I have practiced the rhythm and dance well, and the most important thing is that I am loyal and credible, so that they can sneak into Anfeng, there should be no problem. ”

It took tens of thousands of gold to barely cultivate two people who could come in handy, Lin Mo looked the two up and down, it was really good.

"How are you going to let them get in?"

"There is a troupe of dancing girls in Pengcheng, and they will go to Huainan to beg for a living in the near future, let them follow them, and finally break away in the name of escaping, it should be enough to gain trust, right?" Lu Lingqi was obviously very satisfied with her arrangement.

Lin Mo shook his head, "It's too simple." ”

In fact, the major families are very wary of people from unknown sources, and it is even more difficult to enter the center.

At a glance, I think the posture is good, and then I accept it as a concubine, that is to act in a TV series, a real big family, not to mention becoming a concubine, you are a maid at the door, and he will check it clearly for you.

No way, this is a lesson from the past.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there has been an espionage system, called the embroidered messenger, which is actually the same as Zhu Yuanzhang's Jinyiwei, but the organization is not as perfect as Jinyiwei.

This embroidered messenger did not set off a storm, and the Chinese military minister who killed him was panicked.

Since then, from the important members of the imperial court to the powerful families, the requirements for the personnel entering the palace are very high.

If you want to lurk around them, it is impossible without a complete and credible background.

"What does the husband think?"

Lu Lingqi looked at Lin Mo, but the latter didn't speak, just circled around the girl named Wang Lan twice, and then said in a deep voice: "Remember, your name is Guo Zhao, the queen of words, and your father Guo Yong used to be the Taishou of Nanyang, who was killed in the seizure of power in Jingzhou, and has been in exile all the way. ”

Then he looked at the other girl, "You are her personal maid." This identity should always be remembered. ”

"The folk girl remembered." The two nodded.

There are not many people who know Guo Zhao's identity, only Zhenrong is one, and even Ling'er is not clear.

The most important thing is that even if the other party investigates, the matter itself is true, so no other problems can be found, in the final analysis, it is an impostor.

And with this identity, those who claim to be celebrities in the family will also look down on Wang Lan and them, and it is not impossible to take a concubine.

However, the deity on the side was a little unhappy, looking at Lin Mo faintly.

"Do you have any other instructions, if they are gone, they will be taken back to the Dancing Girl Troupe, for fear of arousing suspicion after a long time." Lu Lingqi really has the style of a spy boss now.

Lin Mo nodded, "Go ahead." ”

When the three of them went out, Lin Mo gently scraped Guo Zhao's nose, "Let's be wronged first, this matter may be my heart, but if it is done, I can only borrow your name first." ”

"It's up to the master." Guo Zhao lowered his head sullenly, after all, this is a bit ruined.

Lin Mo had no choice but to hold Guo Zhao and said in a low voice: "When I accept you as a concubine in the future, I will naturally confess my identity, and then they will know that someone has stolen the name of the Guo family, and it is not considered to have humiliated the lintel of the Guo family, okay?" ”

"Will the lord take me as a concubine?" Guo Zhao blinked his eyes, and his crystal lips were about to move.

"Otherwise, Mrs. will change the maid several times, and I won't agree, so I'll just wait for you to grow up."

"Slave. The slave maid went to bathe the lord with water. Listening to Lin Mo's ambiguous words, Guo Zhao felt a deer in his heart, and then remembered the movements of their husband and wife in the boudoir, and couldn't help blushing and ran away.

Lin Mo pursed his lips, just a little girl, easy to handle.

Then remembering this arrangement, he sighed and sighed, "I hope you don't come in handy." ”
