After reviewing his army, Nangong Aotian rushed to the military arsenal at seven o'clock in the afternoon.
The arsenal at this time was already quite large. Not only did the arsenal now have many craftsmen, but all kinds of materials were also very complete. At this time, it had begun to manufacture various weapons for the army. Of course, Nangong Aotian's crossbows are still available.
In the pilot phase, large-scale manufacturing has not yet begun.
Before the third prince Liu Dingguo became emperor, at the suggestion of Nangong Aotian, he had already sent people to Holy Dragon City to transport a lot of materials, especially military supplies. The materials for making weapons naturally went to Holy Dragon City at that time.
After a lot of luck, and after such a long period of research, Lu Yuanxiang has thoroughly studied the crossbow that Nangong Aotian asked him to study, and has already begun to try to cast it. Of course, there is no shortage of casting materials now.
Nangong Aotian quickly arrived at Lu Yuanxiang's research room. At this time, Lu Yuanxiang was still studying something carefully.
"What are you studying?" Nangong Aotian looked at Lu Yuanxiang and asked.
"Haha, Master." Lu Yuanxiang looked at Nangong Aotian and said, "Look at this."
What Lu Yuanxiang was holding was a very rare crystal stone.
This crystal is completely transparent and has very good transparency.
"Why did you give me this crystal stone? Although it is not much, it is not a very strange thing." Nangong Aotian looked at Lu Yuanxiang and said doubtfully.
"I discovered that what you see through a flat crystal is the same as what you see in reality, but the shape of the crystal is different, so what you see through the crystal will be different." Lu Yuanxiang said excitedly, "Yes.
Sometimes what I see will be magnified several times. Sometimes it will be reduced many times. I am now thinking whether this thing has some great uses."
"Damn, why didn't I think of this?" Nangong Aotian had an idea flash in his mind, but he didn't speak.
"Of course some crystals can shrink what you see a lot." Lu Yuanxiang said with a smile.
"What do you think?" Nangong Aotian looked at Lu Yuanxiang and said.
"If we can magnify matter infinitely through this thing, we might be able to see farther." Lu Yuanxiang said, "But I have tried for a long time, but this thing can't see too far. It will be too far."
"Haha, give me two crystal stones." Nangong Aotian said with a smile, "The kind that can be enlarged."
"Okay." Lu Yuanxiang quickly took two crystal stones and gave them to Nangong Aotian.
"These are indeed two pieces of crystal that are thicker in the middle and thinner on both sides." Nangong Aotian looked at the very translucent crystal in his hand with satisfaction and stopped talking and walked to the side and sat down.
"Master, what are you going to do?" Seeing that Nangong Aotian seemed to be processing the two crystal stones in his hand, Lu Yuanxiang asked doubtfully.
"You'll know later." Nangong Aotian said with a slight smile.
Soon, Nangong Aotian polished the two crystals into the shape of two telescope lenses, then found a cylinder and embedded the lenses in. A simple telescope was quickly made. Nangong Aotian put
I tried this simple telescope and it felt really good, and I felt happy again.
"Look at this, how far you can see." Nangong Aotian handed the simple telescope to Lu Yuanxiang and said with a smile.
Taking the simple telescope from Nangong Aotian doubtfully, Lu Yuanxiang looked out through the cylinder with some hesitation.
"How...how could this be like this?" Lu Yuanxiang looked at the world outside the telescope and was shocked. "Can this be seen very far?"
"Haha, this is not enough." Nangong Aotian said with a slight smile, "You can continue to study according to my idea, and then build this thing. Its role in war is unimaginable."
"Master, you are so smart. I have been thinking about it for almost a month and I still have no clue. You actually figured it out just by looking at it." Lu Yuanxiang looked at Nangong Aotian and said with admiration.
"Haha, it's not a big deal." Nangong Aotian didn't blush at all, "Who calls me a genius?"
"That's right." Lu Yuanxiang replied with a smile, "Young Master is indeed a rare genius."
Nangong Aotian stopped talking, took out a pen and a piece of paper, drew a picture according to the method of making a telescope in his previous life, and then explained in detail some noteworthy aspects of the production.
Then he handed the drawings to Lu Yuanxiang, "You must keep this drawing and the method of making this telescope strictly confidential. Then continue to study it and make a few for me. But don't take it out without my permission."
"Yes, I know." Lu Yuanxiang took the drawing and nodded quickly.
"How is Che Nu?" Nangong Aotian then started to ask about Che Nu.
"Ten crossbows have been produced. We have tested them and the results are very good," Lu Yuanxiang said.
"Oh. Take a look." Nangong Aotian quickly stood up and said.
"Yes." Lu Yuanxiang responded and took the lead to walk outside.
Nangong Aotian is very satisfied with the crossbow made by Lu Yuanxiang. The crossbow has three layers: upper, middle and lower. In other words, there are three large crossbows placed on one crossbow, and there are ten crossbows on each crossbow.
This crossbow can fire three times in a row. There is also a special place to store crossbow arrows on the crossbow, which increases the power of the crossbow a lot. Although this crossbow looks a bit bulky, Nangong Aotian still feels that
I am quite satisfied. After all, the soldiers in this world are all warriors, and they still have a lot of strength. Besides, although this crossbow is a bit heavy, it is still very well made. It does not take a lot of effort to pull it.
"How's the power?" Nangong Aotian looked at the crossbow in front of him and said with satisfaction.
"The power is pretty good." Lu Yuanxiang thought for a while and said, "The range can reach more than 1,200 meters, which is more than twice the range of ordinary bows and arrows. Even martial arts warriors cannot withstand the power of this crossbow at close range.
Attack power."
"Well, that's good, try to make as many crossbows as this." Nangong Aotian nodded and said.
"But this crossbow has one biggest shortcoming." Lu Yuanxiang thought for a while and said.
"Loading the crossbows on this crossbow is more time-consuming because there are three crossbows mounted on it," Lu Yuanxiang said, "so it will take at least ten minutes to load the crossbows."
"It actually takes ten minutes?" Nangong Aotian frowned slightly.
"Of course, if only one of the three crossbows on the crossbow truck is mounted on the battlefield, time will be much less." Lu Yuanxiang said.
"The longer it takes, the longer it takes." Nangong Aotian thought for a moment and said, "This thing is suitable for city defense and large-scale battles on the plains."
"That's true, the power of this thing is quite terrifying when fighting on the plains." Lu Yuanxiang said in agreement.
"I think this thing requires two people to use it together. It takes a lot of strength to wind it up." Nangong Aotian looked at the ballista and thought for a while and said.
"Yes, although the car is equipped with labor-saving devices, it is still very labor-intensive for one person to use it." Lu Yuanxiang nodded.
"It's not bad, it's not bad for two people to use it." Nangong Aotian thought for a while and said, "This thing needs to be produced in large quantities."
"Yes." Lu Yuanxiang nodded quickly.
"How many crossbows like this can you make in a month?" Nangong Aotian thought for a while and said.
"Thirty." Lu Yuanxiang thought for a while and said.
"So few?" Nangong Aotian said with a slight frown.
"This is already the fastest." Lu Yuanxiang said.
"You go to my grandfather and ask him to find a large number of craftsmen to make crossbows. You are specifically responsible for making crossbows on the crossbows. This will make it much faster. At the same time, increase the number of people here and build me one a month.
Hundreds of them." Nangong Aotian thought for a while and said, "The speed must be fast."
"Yes." Lu Yuanxiang nodded quickly.
After leaving the arsenal, Nangong Aotian immediately returned to the main city of Shenglong City. It was already time for dinner.
After a busy day, Nangong Aotian still had no time to rest after dinner. He went back to the house and took out a few pieces of paper to start conceiving the basic structure and basic ideas of establishing the church. Nangong Aotian did not dare to be paralyzed at all by these meticulous tasks.
To the effect. Nangong Aotian is very clear about the role of this church. At this time, Nangong Aotian wants to create a god on this continent, a common belief for everyone. Of course, the main purpose of creating this church is to deal with
of the Silver Eagle Empire and the Lion Empire.
In the blink of an eye, it was already eleven o'clock, and Nangong Aotian had already briefly conceived some of the ideas promoted by the Church of Light. Of course, there were still many things that needed to be added.
After stretching and putting things into the Qiankun Ring, Nangong Aotian stood up and walked outside. Although it was already eleven o'clock in the evening, Nangong Aotian still didn't feel sleepy at all.
After walking out of the door, Nangong Aotian turned to look to the left. The row of side rooms over there was Yu Lingshuang's boudoir. At this time, there was still a room with lights on.
"Hey, it's so late, why isn't my Wei'er resting? What is she doing?" Nangong Aotian walked softly towards the lighted wing with some curiosity.
