Chapter three hundred and ninety first life and death
In the Longwuwei camp, Zhang Kuang, who had returned from the palace, was preparing the weapons and armor produced these days. Mobile version https:m.
Whether the Turks can severely damage the Dulu cavalry in the battle south to Yingzhou depends on whether these new weapons can play their role.
Standing in front of the big tent with his hands behind his back, Zhang Kuang looked at the eight oxen crossbows loaded onto the ox cart one after another, as if he had eaten bees' shit. He couldn't hide his smile and the proud look on his face. Any passing soldier knew the general's mood.
It must be quite good.
Otherwise, the always serious general would not have been smiling and having fun since arriving at Longwuwei Camp.
"General, please approve. All 400 Eight Ox Crossbows have been loaded onto the truck, and there are still 200 more in the warehouse for new recruits to familiarize themselves with."
"Okay, okay."
Zhang Kuang glanced at it, took out his general's seal and stamped it.
"General, please take a look. There are two thousand Mo Dao handles, and there are more than 1,200 left in the warehouse for new recruits to familiarize themselves with. After the spring, they will be shipped to Yingzhou and delivered to the hands of the general."
"Okay, okay, stamp it." Zhang Kuang reviewed it again and stamped it with the general's seal.
"General, please take a look. There are three thousand sets of thick and thick plate armor, four thousand sets of thin plate armor, and there are two thousand sets of each in the warehouse for the new soldiers to familiarize themselves with."
"General, please take a look. There are 50,000 phoenix-feather arrows, 30,000 wooden-feather arrows, and the remaining arrows totaling 120,000 have been loaded onto the truck."
"General, please take a look. Ten thousand round shields and three thousand square shields have been loaded on the carriage. There are two thousand pairs left in the warehouse for the new soldiers to practice."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work."
After verifying one by one, there were no errors and Zhang Kuang stamped them with big seals. Every item of arms exports must be accurately recorded. Otherwise, if the arms were lost, even Zhang Kuang, a general, would not dare to treat them carelessly.
After everyone left, Zhang Kuang still had a lingering smile on his face. He couldn't help it, he was so happy.
"General!" Master Cheng walked over with a slender long knife. It looked like the Tang Heng Dao. It was slender and powerful, and the blade shone with a cold light, piercing people's eyes.
When Zhang Kuang saw the horizontal knife in Master Cheng's hand, he immediately walked over and said, "As expected of a master craftsman, you really did it."
There was a hint of worry in Master Cheng's brows, and he stroked the blade of the Hengdao carefully with his rough hands: "General, it remains to be confirmed whether this Hengdao has the power you mentioned."
Zhang Kuang gently took the Heng Dao in Master Cheng's hand and started playing with it on the spot. After a moment, Zhang Kuang looked at the Heng Dao in his hand happily: "Master Cheng, this knife is much stronger than the Pu Dao. How many have been made?"
"There are only five hundred. I don't know if the general is satisfied that his subordinates dare not make too many."
Satisfied, simply too satisfied, the arrogant look on his face is enough to explain the problem.
"Zhang Feng."
"exist."
"Let the five hundred personal guards replace all the plain knives in their hands with horizontal knives. They must be familiar with them when they arrive in Yingzhou."
"It's an order."
"Reporting to the generals, the generals of the Six Guards, Hu Ben, Hu Bao, Fei Ying, Xiao Guo and Hu Xiang are here."
"Okay, okay, please wait a moment and tell me that I am not here and the Longwuwei camp is not allowed to enter without permission."
After Zhang Kuang got used to it, he immediately realized that it was not the soldiers reporting the armament, but six gangsters, and his expression immediately changed. These guys must have been eyeing the weapons in his hands.
"Haha, I guess Zhang Kuang is at the Longwuwei camp. You have to treat General Wan to a drink next time he comes back."
"Hey, it's like I didn't guess. Why should I invite you to Yunchong for a drink? You are nothing."
"You two, please stop arguing. If you are so arrogant, you will hide away from us if you hear your quarrel."
"Brother Lu, you can't help but be so arrogant. We are all Conglong Liuwei, why should he be so arrogant about eating meat and not even give us a sip of soup?"
"Hey, dear, this crossbow is really big. It can shoot at least five or six hundred rounds."
"I'm afraid it won't be the same, I think."
"This paddle-like thing is Mo Dao? It's not as powerful as Duke Wu said. Brother Mingliang, your father won't fool us, right?"
When Zhang Kuang heard the voice, his expression immediately changed and he glared at the guard fiercely: "Why didn't you know how to stop you, you damn loser?"
The guard looked at the general with aggrieved eyes: "General, my subordinates can't stop me. Several generals have climbed over the wall."
He glared at the guard angrily and trotted over madly: "Why do you guys have time to come to our shabby Longwuwei camp? You haven't seen me for so long. Lao Zhang invited you to sit in Tianxiang Tower. You can't figure it out."
I put it into practice for several brothers before the expedition."
Several generals looked at Zhang Kuang who was blocking them with a smile.
General Wan Mingliang of the Tiger and Leopard Guard looked at Zhang Kuang: "Speaking of Lao Zhang, my daughter is married to your nephew, and we are half relatives. Let me see how your Longwu Guard Camp is not working."
General Huben Yunchong looked at Zhang Kuang in a joking manner: "Little madman, you should call this general my uncle because my cousin wants to see your Longwuwei camp. You shouldn't refuse, right?"
"Insolent, my Xiaoguo Guard is no worse than your Long Wuwei. It is said outside that Long Wuwei is stronger than Xiaoguo Guard. I am not convinced and came to your camp to see for myself."
"I, Nangong Ye, are not as hypocritical as them. I just want to see your new equipment. I won't let you see it at all."
Zhang Kuang looked angrily at the few people who were eager to give it a try: "Gungungun. I got my equipment myself. If you want it, go get it yourself. Don't try to take advantage of me."
"Crazy, you and his grandmother are not honest. When Yingzhou was short of food, if I hadn't loaned you 100,000 shi of grain to support you, you would have starved to death in Yingzhou. Now you have turned your back and don't recognize anyone. You can,
He falls out faster than a dog."
"That's right. When you were in a hurry and you were short of horses, you still wanted to form a cavalry without the five thousand horses that I had brought from the bar. You can't be ungrateful."
"If you say that, Zhang Kuang, shouldn't it be time to return the hundred thousand arrows you borrowed from Fuzhou?"
"I borrowed the grain based on my ability, why should I accept your favor? The war horse was a fair transaction that I spent my money to buy. When the money and goods are paid, I will have someone send the arrow back to you when I return to Yingzhou. It will fly out
I, Lao Zhang, would not hesitate to use the arrows that can be knocked away at a hundred steps."
"You see, you see, I am now richer, and I am no longer the protector of the country who was licking my face."
"Not only is his wealth strong, he is simply arrogant. Would you believe it if His Majesty hadn't suppressed him and dared to go to heaven with such arrogance?"
"ungrateful."
"Despicable."
"Villain."
Several generals made sarcastic remarks, but Zhang Kuang remained calm and pretended not to hear.
"Old Zhang, no matter how little meat you eat, you have to let your brothers drink soup. You can't let you take all the good things."
"Please, please, I will give you one or two eight-oxen crossbows to show off. You can crucify people to the ground in seven hundred steps without any effort."
"Stop bragging, seven hundred steps, why didn't you say a thousand steps?"
"That's right, can the Longwuwei camp still tolerate your arrogance?"
Zhang Kuang didn't say anything, and gestured to the soldiers on the side. Immediately, someone brought out an eight-niu crossbow and started debugging it.
A moment later, the sound of a long and thick crossbow arrow was heard breaking through the air, and the generals looked at the damage caused by the crossbow arrows and the distance, and their eyes became hot.
"Old Zhang, you have so many, no matter what, you have to give your brothers one or two hundred fights. You also know the terrain of Fuzhou. It is flat and open, making it difficult to defend. Please support your brother. Nangong Ye will remember your love."
"I have to prepare something for Dongfang Ming."
Looking at the chattering brothers, the wild and teasing expressions gradually disappeared.
"You bastards all came here with me. I really owe you."
A few people followed Zhang Kuang without knowing it and arrived at the shack next to the prison. The craftsmen inside were busy working in full swing.
Zhang Kuang looked at the five large canvas shelters outside the shed: "Chen Hui!"
"It's an order."
Shen Hui immediately led a group of soldiers to tear off the huge canvas, revealing the true face of Mount Lushan underneath.
When several generals saw what was below, they all smiled knowingly and stretched out their right hands to clasp them together. Seeing this, Zhang Kuang didn't get angry and joined them.
The six people said in unison.
"From Long Liuwei, we share life and death, take care."
Zhang Kuang took the Mo Dao and Heng Dao sent by ten personal guards: "The output is limited, and we will compensate the five brothers in the future."
"Arrogant, we are still unsure which cities the Turks will attack. You should take care."
"Come with me and I will take you to a good place."
"Zhang Kuang, your uncle, this young master's fireworks."
"Mingzhi, uncle remembers your favor."
…
The six generals agreed one after another.
Looking at the disappearance of more than a dozen ox carts, Mr. Liu was crying without tears. The six people, like bandits, looted all the fireworks in the warehouse, and not a single hair was left.
Looking at the three thousand taels of silver notes in his hand, Young Master Liu sighed. He couldn't even earn back the cost of the rice paper, but the favors of the six bosses were actually not lost.
"Using the sound of cannons to disturb the cavalry is quite advanced." Although Young Master Liu was heartbroken, he had to agree with the ideas of several others.
But Young Master Liu didn't know that this idea was thought up by the emperor.
