Seeing Liu Ye like this, Lu Yi hurriedly beckoned to him and said, "Ziyang! ”

When Liu Ye heard Lu Yi's shout, he came back to his senses and looked over.

Seeing that it was Lu Yi, Liu Ye hurriedly greeted him.

Lu Yi smiled: "Why are you so excited? ”

Liu Ye smiled and said: "I was reading a book last night, and I suddenly saw the Qin general Li Xin attacking Chu, but he was defeated by the Chu State, and Li Xin also committed suicide in defeat. ”

"And the reason why Li Xin was defeated was because the Chu State had prepared a weapon at that time."

"This weapon is called a catapult."

"This catapult can throw a boulder weighing several kilograms at 200 paces, far more than an ordinary bow and arrow."

"Moreover, the power of the boulder is huge, and not ordinary people can resist it."

"However, this catapult also has its flaws."

"One is that every time you throw stones, you need a large number of soldiers."

"The second is that two hundred steps away is not enough."

"The third is that the weight of the boulder is not enough."

"Fourth, you can't move quickly."

"Last night, I thought twice about transforming this catapult, and I found that it worked."

"This time we are dealing with the attack of Yuan Shu's army."

"The best way is to stop them on the river."

"And this modified catapult may be able to do wonders."

"The problem now is that Brother Lu has to urgently gather a large number of people to quickly build dozens, or even hundreds, of catapults that are so transformed."

Nangong Yan was a little surprised: "This is not appropriate, right?" Now that the army is guarding in Zhuzhi County, although Brother Lu is married to the Sun family, he cannot mobilize such an army. Otherwise, it is easy to arouse the tongue of others. ”

Liu Ye was also embarrassed suddenly.

Truly.

I was too excited when I thought of the transformed catapult, but I forgot that Lu Yi was not in power now.

Seeing that Liu Ye and Nangong Yan were embarrassed, Lu Yi smiled and said: "It is true that it is impossible to mobilize the army, but there is no need to mobilize the army, what is needed is only ordinary craftsmen and ordinary people under the command of craftsmen." ”

Looking at Nangong Yan, Lu Yi said: "The Nangong family is nearby, I will go and ask the Nangong family patriarch now, let them help gather thousands of people in the district, as well as as as many craftsmen." ”

looked at Liu Ye again and said, "Ziyang, it's up to you to transform the catapult." ”

After speaking, he stopped and said to Nangong Yan: "Let's go to Nangong's house!" ”

Nangong Yan was suspicious: "It's still unknown how this catapult has been transformed. What can be achieved in one night? You have to find a craftsman to verify it. If this does not work, I am afraid that it will cause people to laugh at the time when so many people are sent. ”

Lu Yi glanced at Liu Ye and said, "I believe in Ziyang's ability. He said that if the transformation is successful, it must be a successful transformation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to me. ”

After saying that, turn around and leave.

Nangong Yan was a little helpless and could only keep up.

He always felt that Lu Yi was a little too emotional.

What is the use of believing in Liu Ye?

In case the catapult transformed by Liu Ye fails, it will not be him Liu Ye who will take responsibility, but Lu Yi!

However, Lu Yi was already determined to do this, and he couldn't persuade him.

After following Lu Yi for so long, he knew that Lu Yi had made a decision, and it was difficult for others to change it.

Liu Ye looked at the back of Lu Yi leaving and scratched his head.

It's nice to feel trusted without limits!

I hope I can follow him all the way along.

I also hope that one day, he will be able to fulfill his wish.

As for Sun Ce, Yuan Shu and others, they still don't look down on them.

Lu Yi and Nangong Yan found Nangong's family and borrowed someone from Nangong's family to build a transformed catapult.

The head of the Nangong family was also happy, and without saying a word, he lent nearly six adults of the Nangong family to Lu Yi, and gathered the craftsmen and people near Ou'a.

In this place, the name of the Nangong family is better than anyone else.

When the craftsmen and people heard that the Nangong family wanted help, they rushed over one after another.

In less than half a day, nearly 300 craftsmen and nearly 3,000 people were gathered.

Liu Ye was also excited enough to see so many people.

Busy drawing drawings of the transformed catapult in front of the craftsmen, Liu Ye taught the craftsmen how to build the transformed catapult.

Teach these craftsmen, Liu Yecai commanded all the craftsmen and people to start busy.

Some people cut down trees.

The warriors of the Nangong family were responsible for transporting them by boat.

The craftsmen instructed some of the people to operate the trees and build transformed catapults.

Liu Ye is responsible for the overall control.

For two whole days, everyone had only a few short hours of sleep each day, and the rest of the day, they were all busy.

Two days later, Liu Ye had built nearly 150 modified catapults.

Liu Ye asked Lu Yi to take his name.

Lu Yi didn't bother, and directly named it according to the name in the original history: Thunderbolt.

Lu Yi sent all the nearly 150 thunderbolts to the port of Ou'a, and asked Liu Ye to teach some soldiers to operate the thunderbolts.

Zhu Zhi looked at so many thunderbolts and was skeptical.

So many thunderbolts, really useful?

However, Lu Yi took a lot of trouble to do this, and he didn't hire many people, so he didn't say much.

Wu County, Wu County, Wu County Mansion.

Sun Ce finally woke up in the past few days.

It's just that others are still in a trance.

Mrs. Wu didn't dare to let him go alone, so she could only be by her side every day.

Sun Ce recuperated for nearly five days before his mind calmed down.

Seeing that only Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong occasionally came to visit him, Zhu Zhi and the others were nowhere to be seen.

Even, the little sister didn't come.

Sun Ce asked Mrs. Wu suspiciously, "Mother, why hasn't General Zhu seen anyone recently?" You are so calm, has Yuan Shu's army retreated? Where did Xiaomei go? ”

Mrs. Wu laughed and said, "It's not a big deal. There's really something, can you tell your mother? As for General Zhu, he has already led his men and horses to guard the major ports in the region. Little sister, she reads and writes honestly at home! ”

Sun Ce looked at Mrs. Wu's expression and shook his head.

The next moment, he struggled to get up.

Mrs. Wu hurriedly said, "Bo Fu, what are you doing?" ”

Sun Ce endured the severe pain and got up, and said, "Something is wrong, mother, if you don't tell me, this is for fear that my wound will burst and aggravate my condition, right?" ”

"My little sister's stubborn temperament only likes swords, not reading and writing, how can she read and write honestly?"

"Moreover, I have been awake for so many days, and it is impossible for her not to come to see me if she is fine."

"As for Yuan Shu's attack, mother, you don't have to lie to me."

"The calmer it is, the more critical the situation is."

"Otherwise, if I really get through the crisis, General Zhu and they will come to see me frequently."

After getting off the bed, Sun Ce walked to the iron armor, took the iron armor tremblingly, and said, "Mother, help me put on the iron armor, I want to go to the barracks!" ”

Seeing that Sun Ce was so stubborn, Mrs. Wu sighed and said, "It is true that we have not yet passed the crisis. There is information from the front that Yuan Shu's 40,000 troops have been rectified in the port of Misu, and they should be attacked in the next two days. ”

"But, Beth, you don't need to worry too much."

"Today, we have more than 40,000 soldiers and horses, and General Zhu Zhi is responsible for guarding important places such as Agang in the district, and Tai Shici is guarding Danyang County."

"It should be fine."

Sun Ce was stunned and said, "More than 40,000 soldiers and horses? Where did it come from? ”
