Several people talked and laughed again. The knight suddenly said, "boss Chaobo, there's something I want to discuss with you."

As soon as they heard this, they all calmed down and looked at the swordsman, waiting for him to speak.

"Well," the knight cleared his throat and said, "I've been thinking about this problem since last year's pass war. It's estimated that our two counties will focus on defense in the next few years, but the more we get to the back, Lu Bu will be more defensive against us, so it will be more difficult for us to get any materials from Luoyang, so I wonder if we can take a batch of rhubarb crossbows back this time. It's better to have two stones. If it doesn't work, one stone will do

The others nodded and looked at Huangfu Chaobo expectantly.

"Yes, last year's war, thanks to the crossbow soldiers, our defense will be a lot easier. If we don't have this, it is estimated that the loss will be greater, so this time we will take this opportunity to run." Zhao Zilong nodded and added;

after two years of development, the Tang army's Crossbow soldiers have begun to change their clothes on a large scale, from the original one stone rhubarb crossbow to the more sharp two stone rhubarb crossbow. If they can bring back a batch of two stone rhubarb crossbows from Luoyang, the harvest of this trip will be very good for the four people. As the Xiake said, there are still some people in the Zhao army who are eyeing Wuyuan and Shuofang. Chen Gong and Zhang Liao are the most staunch supporters.

After listening to their words, Huangfu Chaobo also fell into meditation. The battle camp of Ershi Dahuang crossbow has not been completely changed. At present, only more than half of the crossbow soldiers have been replaced. If they are given them, they must be equipped with more than 1000 soldiers each to form combat effectiveness. Four people are 4000. Plus Zhou Qiang and a few people all over the world, it is estimated that it will be more effective Only ten thousand pieces can be used.

Nowadays, the crossbow in the world is no longer the unique specialty of the Tang army. For example, in the Wei state of Yuan Shao, Ju Yi's first dead soldiers were all equipped with crossbow machines, so it indirectly led to the production of crossbow machines in the Wei state. In addition, Cao Cao's state of Qi and sun CE's state of Wu, which are mainly infantry States, have also begun to make a large number of crossbows to prepare for infantry. Of course, the large-scale production in this area is not the same as that under Huangfu Chaobo. There are also several player lords who make crossbows to equip their own soldiers and horses, and a small amount for sale.

However, the other crossbows are quite different from those of the Tang army. Now the Tang army has a large number of crossbows equipped with two stone rhubarb crossbows, while the other crossbows can only produce one stone rhubarb crossbows of excellent level at most, and the output is also quite different. Now Huangfu Chaobo has ordered several masters of the workshop to develop more sophisticated three stone rhubarb crossbow and more sophisticated cavalry crossbow.

"Big brother! Big brother Seeing that Huangfu Chaobo was in a daze, Lao Du couldn't help shouting beside him;

"eh? Oh Huangfu reacted fiercely. Seeing the expressions of several people around him, he quickly explained: "I'm sorry, I'm a little distracted when I think about other things. Well, I'll give you 5000 crossbows. Lao Zhao, you four people will form a strong crossbow troop of 1000 people, and then leave two or three for replacement. As for the one stone crossbow, each of you should have more than 2000 in your hands, right

Several people were very happy when they heard that the Tang army was changing clothes, so they didn't want to buy too many. It was very good that everyone could take about 500. They didn't expect that Huangfu Chaobo would have more than 1000 crossbows when he opened his mouth, which would be enough for each family to set up a strong crossbow army of 1000 people.

Hearing that Huangfu Chaobo asked about the situation of a stone of rhubarb crossbow, several people nodded one after another.

"I still have more than 1500."

"1200."

"I have two thousand more!"

"I have about two thousand, too."

The four replied one after another. Huangfu Chaobo nodded, which was similar to the number he remembered. After all, some crossbows would be damaged in the past two years.

"I'll give you 10000 crossbows with one stone. Then each crossbow is equipped with five bowstrings and 300 crossbows. In addition, your own damaged crossbows should be enough for you to use at present. After all, it's impossible that all the soldiers in the army are crossbow soldiers. In the north of Bingzhou, cavalry also accounts for a large proportion. " Huangfu Chaobo thought about it and said to several people,

"ah And me, and me? " All over the world, he said anxiously;

"brother Chao, I want it here too!" Zhou Qiang also interjected;

"you two should use one crossbow first. Now I don't have enough stock. The four of them are sure to be harassed by LV Bujun, so it will be very difficult to transport a large number of materials. You are different. You can take one crossbow at any time. At that time, you will have 1200 two crossbows for each family."

"All right!" As soon as they heard it, they knew that Huangfu Chaobo's words were reasonable, so they stopped insisting.

Everyone is chatting, suddenly Shi a is in a hurry to come to see: "king!"

Seeing Shi A's appearance, Huangfu Chaobo quickly got up and came to the backyard. Shi a stepped forward and reported in a soft voice: "inform the king that the shadow has captured many people spying in the workshop area in recent days. They should be spies from other countries. Now, please decide what to do with these people!""Oh..." Huangfu Chaobo said with a smile, "there must be a lot of them."

"More than ten people have been arrested in recent days, and it is estimated that there are still many we have not found."

"Hold on first, don't use torture for trial, and send them out of the country after the ceremony. Don't hurt their lives."

Huangfu Chaobo will be surprised at the news reported by Shi A. after all, this is the best time for the Danmu Zhangdan sect to sneak into Luoyang. Among the envoys sent by Huangfu Chaobo to other vassal states, aren't there many shadow guards involved? This is unavoidable.

Shi a Leng, looked up at Huang Fu Chao Bo one eye, then immediately bowed his head to receive orders: "Wei Chen receives orders!"

With the status of Huangfu Chaobo, Yu Gao and his power increased, although he didn't deliberately show anything, the people under his command were unconsciously more and more in awe of him. Just like this time, Shi a had some doubts. Huangfu Chaobo didn't order to dispose of all the details, but he subconsciously bowed his head and took orders.

Seeing the doubts in Shi A's heart, Huangfu Chaobo said with a smile: "what? Some doubts in my heart? "

"Please help your subordinates out of their doubts!"

"They all came with the mission. If they just disposed of them, there would be some mistakes. Moreover, at the time of the original agreement, they thought that there might be a lot of meticulous work to take advantage of the opportunity, so they strengthened their guard everywhere. Moreover, although they could watch the workshops in the inner city from a distance, it was not easy for them to enter. Moreover, the workshops in the inner city were not easy to enter No secrets. " Huangfu Chaobo explained with a smile;

suddenly, he thought of one thing and said: "however, there is one thing you need to strengthen your guard, that is, important craftsmen and other members need to strengthen protection to prevent them from being attacked or even assassinated."

"No!" Shi a is also a shock, quickly bow to accept orders, and then quickly leave to decorate.
