There are bandits attacking

Chapter 120 Seven: □□

Qin Ce, who wanted Zhang Jiu to rest all his heart, could not make up his mind soon. After Zhang Jiu rested for four days, Qin Yi came to the door and brought over the blueprints and styles of various weapons. It looked like he was going to do a big job, and he had indeed made sufficient preparations for this.

"Xiao Jiu, look, these are the weapons used in the military. I brought you the commonly used ones and the uncommon ones. You can see what can be improved." Qin Yi said enthusiastically, as if he had already put Zhang Jiu Became a master of making weapons.

Looking at the courtyard full of all kinds of weapons, if people who don't know it think this is a weapons field?For the resolute and vigorous Qin Yi, Zhang Jiu felt that the word "crazy" could not be more appropriate to describe him. He had never seen anyone who was as enthusiastic about something as Qin Yi.

And Zhang Jiu seems to have forgotten that he is also a very fanatical person. He used to do anything to eat sleeping beauty. Of course, now he has taken the initiative to cross out the item of beauty, but the two items of eating and sleeping He is still extremely persistent, even worse than before.

Zhang Jiu glanced around, and he really had all the weapons as Qin Yi said, and there were many that he had never seen before. Needless to say, those that were too common and ordinary were not needed. To improve, Zhang Jiu began to pick and improve what he could do.

"Let's get these first, and I'm going to trouble you to put them away for the rest," Zhang Jiu said after picking them out. Putting so many things here really takes up too much space.

Qin Yi was very obedient and asked Zhang Jiu to put away the remaining weapons picked by Zhang Jiu, and moved to Zhang Jiu's side and began to ask Zhang Jiu how to modify the weapons, "Xiao Jiu, what are you going to do?"

"Let's start with bows and arrows first." Zhang Jiu thought for a while. The main enemy of Daqin is the Hutes from the west. The Hutes are mainly nomadic people. They are good at horseback riding, archery and wrestling. In this respect, the soldiers of Daqin are not as good as them Yes, so Zhang Jiu wanted to start with this aspect first.

When talking about bows and arrows, almost everyone will think of the Zhuge Liannu in the Three Kingdoms period. The Zhuge Liannu can shoot more than ten arrows at a time. It has a long range and strong firepower, and it is very lethal to the enemy. Individual soldiers cannot be used, and it was mainly used to defend cities and camps at that time.

What Zhang Jiu thought of was the continuous crossbow after the Three Kingdoms, and applied it to the chariot crossbow in mobile warfare. The chariot crossbow is an improvement of the Zhuge Liannu in later generations. Although it is still relatively large in size and weight, it is easy to carry and has a good range and lethality. It is stronger, and it is very suitable to use it to deal with Zhang Jiu, a Huth.

After telling Qin Yi and Zhao Ye what he thought, Zhang Jiu was immediately attacked by these two people with fiery eyes, as if they would pounce on him and bite him at any moment, Zhang Jiu moved away from the two people slightly, "Brother , cousin, what do you think?"

"Okay, very good." Apart from admiring these two people, I really don't know what to say, thinking again that Zhang Jiu is indeed the lucky star bestowed on Daqin by heaven.

"Then shall we start to let people try to make it?" Zhang Jiu suggested.

Of course this is certain, Qin Yi immediately ran out to find the craftsman who made the gun, he was so excited that he forgot that he could send someone there.

Looking at Qin Yi who disappeared like the wind, Zhang Jiu and Zhao Ye looked at each other for a while before continuing. Zhang Jiu coughed lightly, "Cousin, although Che Nu is very lethal, his shortcomings are also obvious. Yes, it is difficult to produce in large quantities, and the operation is not a matter of one person.”

Zhao Ye nodded. He also thought of this point, but although the car crossbow has so many shortcomings, its advantages cannot be ignored. Zhao Ye is very much looking forward to the development of the car crossbow.

However, Zhang Jiu's words seemed to mean that he had other ideas, so Zhao Ye asked, "Xiao Jiu, do you have other ideas, please tell me."

"We all know that cavalry and archery are the strengths of the Hutes. In this aspect, the soldiers of Daqin are no match for them. I have heard that we are always at a disadvantage when facing their cavalry. So I think we can wear it on the soldiers. A light crossbow?"

"Light crossbow?" Zhao Ye seemed to understand Zhang Jiu's meaning. The light crossbow that Zhang Jiu said was probably similar to a bow and arrow, but if that was the case, then why bother?

"Yes, as the name suggests, the light crossbow is very light and easy to carry. It is very easy to operate like a bow and arrow, and it can also be mass-produced. Of course, its range and lethality are not as good as the chariot crossbow, but compared with the bow and arrow, the light crossbow is a little bit worse. The advantage is that the light crossbow can be fired with one hand."

The word "one-handed launch" touched Zhao Ye a lot. You must know that it is easy to lose control of a horse on the battlefield, especially when both hands are out of the rein. Avoiding this situation to a certain extent greatly enhanced the effectiveness of the cavalry.

Even though Zhao Ye was always peaceful, he was also very excited because of this, "Is what Xiaojiu said true?"

Zhao Ye's question didn't have any substantive meaning, he just wanted to express his feelings, Zhang Jiu nodded, "Actually, the light crossbow has one advantage compared with the bow and arrow, that is, the light crossbow does not need No matter how strong the arm is, almost everyone can operate it, and his hit rate is better than that of bow and arrow.”

"That's enough." Zhao Ye didn't think that the light crossbow would have these benefits. He couldn't put it down just by firing it with one hand. Regardless of whether he still has the following two advantages, Zhao Ye decided to make the light crossbow.

"Xiao Jiu, wait here for a while, I'll go see if Yun Zhi is here, why hasn't he come back for so long?" Zhao Ye complained, and walked out quickly.

Looking at Zhao Ye's disappearing figure, Zhang Jiu finally chose to keep his mouth shut. Fortunately, he waited for someone here and took a break by the way, but he didn't expect that Zhao Ye would be unable to sit still like Qin Yi.

When Qin Ce came back from the outside, he saw Zhang Jiu drinking tea leisurely in the living room alone. It was strange that he couldn't find the other two after looking around, "Where are the eldest brother and cousin? Where are you going?"

"I went to find the craftsman who made the arrow." Zhang Jiu put down his teacup and pouted. "Why did you come back so early today?"

He would come back so early because he was afraid that those two people would tire Zhang Jiu out of proportion. Now it seems that his worries are unnecessary. Qin Ce sat next to Zhang Jiu and skipped this question directly, "What are you talking about with big brother today?" What did they say?"

"It's nothing, I just mentioned the two weapons of the crossbow and the light crossbow, and they left." Zhang Jiu said that he still has a lot to say, and now he has to save the words until the next time.

"The car crossbow is light crossbow?" Qin Ce was very puzzled, looking at Zhang Jiu and waiting for Zhang Jiu to answer his doubts.

Zhang Jiu didn't make it too complicated, but simply explained the performance and advantages of these two weapons for Qin Ce, and then said, "I just said here and they all left."

Hearing this, Qin Ce finally knew why the two couldn't sit still, even he was a little excited, let alone the general who led the army to fight, looking at Zhang Jiu more and more hotly, Qin Ce still couldn't hold back in the end Wanting to pamper Zhang Jiu, hugged Zhang Jiu and gave him a lengthy kiss, sighed, "Xiao Jiu, you are really a treasure, no, it should be said that you are a treasure chest, there is something for you an inexhaustible treasure"

Mentioning the treasure chest, Zhang Jiu suddenly thought of Du Shiniang in his head, and couldn't help thinking that he didn't want to be the treasure chest that Du Shiniang was angry with. Amused by his own thoughts, Zhang Jiu lay on Qin Ce's shoulder laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Qin Ce asked inexplicably, was what he said funny?

"I'm not laughing, I'm just thinking, I don't want to be a treasure chest, I want to be a cash cow." Zhang Jiu felt that the golden ingot was more attractive to him.

"You are already a cash cow." If Zhang Jiu's property is really counted, Qin Ce dares to say that in Daqin, Zhang Jiu will be ranked second, and the number one will definitely be vacant. If Zhang Jiu is not a cash cow, what is it?

"Then you shake it to see if the gold ingot will fall," Zhang Jiu said humorously.

Seeing such a lovely person in front of him, Qin Ce didn't want to shake, but just wanted to kiss him, so Qin Ce obeyed his heart and kissed Zhang Jiu's lips again.
