Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 748;

Chapter [-]; Scary sheep-catching equipment

In Lijiazhuang, Lantian County, in the west courtyard of the Jianguo County Government Mansion, Li Yu and a group of chief stewards from the Lin family of the Imperial Army who led troops were in Zhang Laoshi's courtyard, inspecting the building of equipment.

"I don't know if the work under the chief steward has reached that level?"

"Returning to Mr. Lang, the configuration for 1 people was assembled three days ago. There are three types of armor, large, medium and small, and two types of strength for bows and arrows.

All went into the warehouse, only bows and arrows, armor, because Tie Shuo and Tie Spear were passed down from our clan in the first place, so there was no need to build them separately, so it saved a lot of trouble. "

"Great goodness."

Li Yu brought a dozen or so chief stewards of the Lin family, who were extremely excited, to the yard where Zhang Laoshi made iron. This is one of the yards in charge of making ironware, and it is also the yard where iron pots were made for the first time.

Later, because the yard was not enough, it was moved to another big yard. This initial place was considered to be Zhang Da’s own site. Except for the stewards who were in charge of blacksmithing, this was a place where no idlers were allowed to enter or leave, even if they were members of the clan. The blacksmith cannot come in either.

Looking at a pair of pure black bright armor and bows and arrows hanging in the backyard room, Li Yu was very satisfied. The manufacturing techniques were somewhat different from those of the imperial court. Li Yu had a lot of money to use, so no matter what materials he used, he used the highest quality. The goods, every piece of iron leaf on the armor is pure hand-crafted fine iron!

Li Yu didn't use cowhide, but all adult crocodile skin. It can be said that Li Yu's armor is worth the cost of three pieces in the imperial court. Li Yu's strong bow can buy thirty for the cost of one. For the hard bows used for hunting on the market, one cloud-piercing arrow can cost as much as five imperial court arrow feathers...

It can be said that these guys of Li Yu are basically piled up of money and smashed out of silk, Li Yu looked at a group of big managers and said with a smile;
"If other families dare to make armor and bows and arrows like this, they will probably lose their families."

"That's right, sir, I don't talk about the manpower, nor the coal that needs to be burned, but the cost. A pair of armor actually costs 360 guan, 640 million guan to make these [-] sets of magical weapons. Hehe... Don't be afraid that your lord will laugh at me, the day I hear this number, I can't hold my chopsticks with trembling hands when I eat."

Li Yu looked at a mighty five or sixty-year-old man in luxurious clothes;

"Hahahaha, the Seventh Elder has followed Aye to kill all over the country, and he has never been afraid of anything. He just spent some money. Why is there such a difference?"

"Difference? Sir, you are laughing at me. If you say that you are not afraid of death when you go to battle, but if you say that the money is on the silk, the minister is powerless. Don't say that more than 600 million will frighten the minister. Sir, you can ask others." Senior stewards, which one didn't take a deep breath?"

After hearing this, Li Yu looked at a group of senior stewards who were leading the troops, and the latter kept nodding their heads. Lin Wudi's elder brother, the eldest son of the Lin family, spoke calmly;
"Elder Seven is right. The amount of more than 600 million guan is huge. Even if it is put in the imperial court, it is not a small amount. Today's imperial court has distribution of money for baijiu and huge tax blessings on the Silk Road. And with the help of Mr. Lang several times, the crisis was saved.

Two years ago, more than 600 million coins could make the ministers in the court so happy that it was hard to fall asleep. Many big families in the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs could also come up with this amount, but after taking it out, it should be exhausted It's time to dry up. "

"That's right, what Da Lang said is the truth. If it weren't for Mr. Lang, you are so talented in making money, our second room would not dare to make armor like this, especially for these bows and arrows, each shot is worth more than ten pieces of silver. , the people of the tribe have been discussing recently how to recover the arrows that have been shot."

Li Yu nodded;

"What the clansmen say is just life. I agree very much. If it is impossible to shoot it, then let it go. When the conditions are met, the arrow feathers that are shot will of course be taken back.

Speaking of the matter of the bow and arrow, the patriarch has also thought about it, if we encounter thieves and they can't shoot us, we can divide into three groups,

The configuration is also for 1 people. If we go out with three rounds of arrow rain, there should be nothing left for the thieves. Hahahaha, I have thought of this a long time ago.
When I read the book of war, I found that Wang Jian, the general of the Qin Dynasty, especially liked to shoot the enemy like this. The descendants all said that the Qin army was mighty and invincible. In fact, what was really powerful was the supply of food and grass in the Qin Dynasty. The invincible arrow array of the army, of course, the people who lead the soldiers are also very knowledgeable, but it is also important to have a murderous weapon. 1 people are equipped with this kind of bow and arrow, which should be better than a team with tattered equipment. There is no need to question this. What, what do you think? "

A group of big managers, you look at me, I look at you, how to answer this question?
The great elder of the Lin family, the brother of the great elder, finally opened the golden mouth;
"Well, what the Patriarch said is correct. With such a strong bow and arrows, each person is issued 77 pieces. In a team of 1 people, everyone is an archer. It is difficult to defeat a battle. There are hundreds of sets of armor and body protection. ,, plus so many first-class war horses, to be fair, as long as the leader of the army does not lose his mind, he can easily win against [-] to [-] bandit soldiers. Because of the killing weapon, if ten rounds of arrows are shot here, even if there are still undead thieves, the next moment the cavalry will go up to harvest the heads. To be honest, if you run into this configuration with a regular team... you will have a headache until you sleep Don't sleep!"

The first elder of the Lin family seemed to be thinking of the scene of the confrontation between the two armies, so he kept shaking his head and sighing, and the second elder who followed Li Yu to send troops to kill the Taoist temple on Henan Road also joined in the conversation;

"Yes, what the second brother said is true. When it comes to magical weapons, all kinds of bows and arrows are the most powerful... There are many reasons why the Qin army was able to kill the Quartet. One of the important things is that the Qin State Possesses a crossbow that can never be used up,
A chariot crossbow issued by five people can still have a lot of lethality after penetrating a centurion. A bed crossbow issued by two people can string a dozen people into a gourd.
Qin Jun knew the power of crossbow arrows well, so no matter where he went, three rounds of crossbow arrows were shot at the beginning, and the other six countries who shot them lost their minds and fled in a hurry!There were even situations of retreating without fighting many times, and Qin Jun had the myth that he could win the war without dying!

Even Li Mu, the god of war, had such a headache, he worked hard to get many fast horses outside the Great Wall, and the money he saved by frugality, plus the capital he got from burning, killing, looting and looting outside the Great Wall, he built many shields and put the mighty The extremely fierce Qin Jun blocked it,
Even so!The archers of the Qin army were allotted 63 pieces, and the current imperial court can only issue [-] pieces, even though these [-] pieces are the number that those important officials of the Ministry of War fought for with their lives, otherwise it would be [-] pieces per person General configuration...

Anyone who leads an army wants to have endless arrows and crossbows, but this is a dream. In reality, who can throw money and silk like stones? "

"Yes, brother is right. If you want to have endless arrows and crossbows, you have to have enough money. In all dynasties and dynasties, except for the Qin Dynasty, no other court dared to fill in the military affairs. bottomless pit,
Even if the Qin Dynasty won the world in the end and unified the seven kingdoms, it still pitied the poverty of its own family. This is also an important factor that led to the demise of the second generation. You must investigate this point, sir! "

"Well, I know this better than anyone else. Wars are actually a competition of national strength and financial resources. To put it bluntly, more people take advantage, and more money takes advantage, that's all.

We Erfang is the branch with the largest population among the nine families of the Li family in Longxi, and it is also the branch with the largest population of the Qiwang family with five surnames in the world today.

When it comes to money, the same is true. I have never asked about the accumulation of our second house for thousands of years, and how much it is. At the most, I used 80 yuan from my ancestors’ property. Now I only talk about the money and silk that I earned with my own hands. When counting the five surnames and Qiwang, the head of all the family families, a mere 600 million coins is a drop in the bucket, and I won't blink if I throw in another 1000 million. Do you think this liquor business is a joke?
Now after three price reductions, many people can afford the cheapest Wuliangye. What you see is that a lot of food and rice are consumed every month, but who of you has noticed that every month, families from all over the world come to take away a lot of food? Liquor?
Now if we are stuck with liquor and don’t sell it outside, let’s not say that the people are not willing to give up, the court will not allow it, and those big family families can’t even bring out drinks for entertaining guests. Only this liquor is sold by our second-bedroom family. If you can stand upright, you can become rich and invincible, hahahahaha! "

Looking at the stunned group of generals, Li Yule smiled broadly.

The great elder of the Lin family asked tentatively with trembling hands;

"Don't dare to ask my lord, this...the more than 600 million silver coins for making armor and bows...is it all money from baijiu?"

Li Yu proudly raised her chest and raised her head;
"Of course, the Great Elder is extremely intelligent, and he got it right with just one guess."

The 1.8-meter elder just felt dizzy, his whole body was weak, and his forehead was still sweating, and he leaned against the wall behind him...

"Brother?"

"Big elder?"

"Uncle, what's the matter with you?"

Lin Wudi and a few uncles hurried up to support the fierce tiger of the Lin family who is second only to the head of the family~ Lin Yingjie and Li Yu also came to him and ordered;
"Quick, help the Great Elder to sit down, this is a symptom of brain hypoxia, just sit and rest."

The Great Elder who was supported to sit down said weakly;

"Thank you patriarch for your concern."

"Thank you, the Great Elder is also the cornerstone of my second room, nothing can happen."

The Great Elder smiled wryly;
"The patriarch has praised you, and I'm just fine with fighting and killing. On the way to make money, I really can't do anything. With the 600 million yuan spent, I can't eat, drink, or sleep. I've been tossing around for more than a month. I have been worrying about it for more than three months, and I almost exaggerated the minister, but the eldest brother was still thinking cheerfully, and he kept persuading me to worry less and don't worry about it. I got over it slowly. When the patriarch spends money again in the future, don't call me Chen. I heard, my lord... I can't bear these numbers..."

Li Yu didn't want to laugh and could only cover his mouth. A group of senior managers also shook their heads and smiled wryly. That look was uglier than crying. Li Yu took a machete from the wall and asked Zhang Laoshi next to him if he was free;

"Boss, is this a weapon on the grassland?"

"Yes, sir, these are conventional weapons used by grassland people. The few Xia Shangshu brought with him when he came here were all obtained from the battlefields in previous years."

"Oh, let's practice it, how much harm will it do to us..."

Without waiting for Zhang Honest to reply, Li Yu went directly to the sample armor, chopped it down with all his strength, stabbed it, and brought out a stream of sparks. Li Yu handed the scimitar to Niu Da, and then carefully examined the pattern on the armor. destruction level.

Zhang Laoshi explained carefully beside him;

"According to your instructions, Mr. Lang, each piece of armor is made into a convex surface, which is the arc you said, so the conventional weapons in the past will not do much damage to our latest experimental armor. It's just that there are some traces, it's impossible to hurt someone without seven or eight knives,
Even the Tang sword in the imperial court cannot harm the body of the soldiers in the armor with a single blow, but the newly made Tang sword has almost the same effect as the previous horse-cutting sword, so the degree of damage to the armor is not small. Enemy, our armors have to be brought back and repaired after one battle..."

Li Yu listened carefully to what Zhang Honest had said, and then calmly interjected;
"I know better than anyone else that as long as it is not stabbed in the gap of the armor with one shot, it is impossible to kill it with one shot. Even if it is stabbed in the gap of the armor, with the protection of the upper and lower sides of the second layer of armor, it will still not hurt the tribe.

Let alone hurt the clansmen inside with a single knife. These technologies have existed for thousands of years. When they appear at this time, they will be invincible and invincible. By the way, Manager Zhang, the imperial court has 3000 more cavalry, and now it is [-] Don't underestimate the number of people in our Anxi Guard, your [-] sets are not enough, and it is not enough for a guard. "

"Don't worry, my lord, I haven't stopped building. The clansmen are still the same, five hours a day, and my lord will give me another 30 days, [-] sets of armor, bows and arrows, not a single one will be missing. .”

"Okay, then when you finish fighting, let's send troops to hunt the gazelle on the grassland."

"Yes."

"Oh, yes, the machine crossbows issued by the two were made by the Gongshuban family. I also went to see them yesterday. There are a thousand murder weapons neatly arranged. I wonder if the crossbow arrows that I told the chief steward to shoot are ready?"

When Zhang Laoshi heard this, he immediately agreed;

"Don't worry, Mr. Lang, each new machine crossbow is equipped with 77 crossbow arrows. Wait a moment, Mr. Lang."

Zhang Laoshi quickly walked into the back room, and took out two crossbow arrows in a short while, which looked similar to the archer's arrow feathers, only twice as big.

A group of big stewards in the Lin family's eyes lit up when they saw their faces, and the big elder spoke anxiously;
"Master Zhang, can you ask me to take a look."

Li Yu pouted, and Zhang Laoshi responded smoothly;

"Great Elder, please take a look."
