Looking at his wife who was leaving in a hurry, Yan Liang looked confused and couldn't guess what she wanted to show him.
After a while, his wife didn't come back. Out of curiosity, Yan Liang followed her out.
In the bedroom not far next door, I could vaguely hear the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets, and from time to time I could hear my wife muttering: "Where did it go? I obviously put it here..."
Yan Liang walked into the room and saw his wife immersed in the bookcase, rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, searching for something.
Huang Yueying is a woman who loves books. The dowry from her mother's family included several boxes of letters. Yan Liang specially built a small cabinet in her bedroom for her to collect books.
Looking at his wife who was immersed in searching, Yan Liang suddenly had an idea.
"Could it be..."
"I found it, I finally found it."
When Yan Liang was guessing, Huang Yueying walked away excitedly, with a silk book in her hand.
"What are you looking for, madam?" Yan Liang asked curiously.
Huang Yueying then placed the silk scroll on the case and slowly unfolded it. On the white silk silk, exquisitely composed patterns appeared one after another.
Yan Liang looked at it, his eyes suddenly filled with inexplicable surprise, as if he had seen some treasure map.
Huang Yueying pointed at the silk scroll and said: "When I have nothing to do, I like to make some crafts by myself. The repeating crossbow in the picture is made by me improving the existing arm-tension repeating crossbow. I call it the profit and loss repeating crossbow."
This crossbow uses eight-inch iron crossbow arrows, which can fire ten at a time. Its instantaneous lethality and range of damage are extremely wide. I just thought that this crossbow might help my husband defeat the Xiliang cavalry."
Yan Liang looked at the standard pattern on the scroll and listened to Huang Yueying's explanation. He became more and more ecstatic. He couldn't help but slapped the table and shouted: "Isn't this his grandma's Zhuge Liannu!"
Historically, Zhuge Liang invented the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow during the Northern Expedition. This crossbow could fire ten arrows simultaneously and was extremely lethal. It once frightened the cavalry of Wei State.
According to rumors, the Zhuge Liannu was designed and invented with the help of Huang Yueying, who was good at making weapons.
However, Yan Liang did not expect that the Zhuge Liannu had nothing to do with Zhuge Liang. It was Huang Yueying who had designed it as early as Xinye.
"Zhuge Liannu..."
Huang Yueying looked confused. She didn't understand why her husband named the word "Zhuge" in front of "Liannu". She thought to herself that I invented this crossbow machine after all. Even if it was to be named, it should be called "Yueying Liannu".
What happened to Zhuge?
Yan Liang was so excited for a moment that he had been speaking uncontrollably, but then he suddenly realized that something he shouldn't have said slipped out of his mouth.
He laughed, quickly changed the subject, and asked Huang Yueying in detail about the profit and loss situation.
Huang Yueying forgot about the past and patiently explained her design to him.
After some careful understanding, Yan Liang finally understood the overall design of this profit-and-loss crossbow. Yan Liang was amazed by the sophistication of its design.
Yan Liang couldn't help but look at his wife's beautiful face, thinking how could such a charming face hide such a wise mind and be able to invent such a wonderful weapon.
At this time, Yan Liang couldn't help but feel lucky to have married such a smart and good wife as Huang Yueying.
This crossbow can fire ten arrows at a time. If there are two hundred such crossbows, it is equivalent to having two thousand ordinary hard crossbows.
The most terrible thing is that two thousand arrows can be fired almost at the same instant, and its suddenness and killing density are far beyond the comparison of ordinary crossbows.
"This crossbow is really the nemesis of the Xiliang cavalry. Madam, you have made a great contribution this time."
Yan Liang could not restrain his inner ecstasy and praised his wife greatly.
After being praised by her husband, Huang Yueying felt happy, but she said: "Although this crossbow can restrain the Xiliang cavalry, the production process is extremely complicated. It takes at least twice as much time and money to make a profit and loss repeating crossbow than an ordinary crossbow."
.”
Huang Yueying still maintained a calm mind and raised new difficulties.
Yan Liang waved his hand and said: "Money is not a problem. Time is the most scarce now. Let's do this. I will issue an order now to recruit craftsmen from Nanyang counties to Xinye. My wife will command these craftsmen and work day and night to make this profit and loss company."
crossbow."
"this……"
Huang Yueying seems a little embarrassed. After all, she is a woman and has some scruples about being in public.
However, she then thought again that the production process of this profit-and-loss repeating crossbow was complicated. Without on-site guidance from the inventor herself, even a skilled craftsman would not be able to produce the actual object based on the drawings alone.
And now there is a powerful enemy, and my husband has to rely on this repeating crossbow to defeat the enemy. As a wife, how can I not do my part.
Thinking of this, Huang Yueying said happily: "I can share a little bit with my husband. I can't ask for it, so my husband can rest assured. I will make this repeating crossbow as soon as possible, so that I can add a sharp weapon to my husband to defeat the enemy."
Huang Yueying's understanding really touched Yan Liang's heart.
Now that the strategy to defeat the enemy was in place, Yan Liang was very happy. Seeing his lovely wife's slim figure and her faint smile, she couldn't help but feel excited.
At that moment, he picked up Huang Yueying and strode towards the inner room.
Huang Yueying was suddenly surprised and said shyly: "Husband, what are you going to do?"
"Madam has solved a big problem for me. As a husband, of course I have to put in some effort and repay Madam well, hehe~~"
Yan Liang's words were evil and he had a wicked smile on his face.
Huang Yueying's face was flushed with blush, and she was ashamed like a tide, but she just lowered her eyebrows and smiled, and let her go to the couch with her arms.
Beautiful scenery on a good day, the moon rises above the brow, the dragon returns to the Jade Gate, and another night of endless spring light.
One night in Wushan, there were endless clouds and rain.
At dawn the next day, Yan Liang issued an order to Man Chong, ordering him to quickly recruit craftsmen from Xinye, Wancheng, Chaoyang and other counties and gather them to the northern suburbs of Xinye.
As the battle was approaching, Yan Liang suddenly issued such a strange order, which naturally made Man Chong quite confused.
Yan Liang did not tell him the truth, but only asked him to do as he was told.
Not only Man Chong, but also confidants such as Xu You and Yan Liang did not reveal a word about the profit and loss of Liannu.
After all, this new type of repeating crossbow will be a weapon that can change the battlefield pattern. Before its debut, Yan Liang must ensure that it is unknown to the enemy in order to achieve the surprise of defeating the enemy.
At the same time, Yan Liang ordered Zhou Cang to lead 300 Tiger Guard troops and set up a military manufacturing camp in a ravine in the northern suburbs to protect and supervise the craftsmen.
Yan Liang also issued a strict order to Zhou Cang. All craftsmen involved in the production must be completely isolated from the outside world and strictly prevent leaks to the outside world. If anyone is found to be escaping, he will be killed.
Yan Liang's ruthless methods have their own reasons.
This exquisite weapon, the Profit and Loss Repeating Crossbow, will not only be used in this battle against the Xiliang Army, but Yan Liang will continue to rely on its powerful power in future wars. It can be said that this crossbow will help change Yan Liang's current weak status.
It will be of great help.
And if such a sharp weapon is leaked and allows an already powerful enemy like Yuan Shao to imitate it, the threat it poses to itself will be far greater than it is now.
After all these considerations, Yan Liang had to make up his mind and keep the profits and losses 100% confidential.
