Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 146 Eight Bull Crossbow

As the saying goes, good fire wastes carbon, good girl Fei Han.In order to complete this task, Li Chen was almost bald.

The famous Cai Wenji is indeed very moist, but it is not difficult for most people, but who can resist this day. ,

After tossing all night, the fields are very fertile and the cattle are tired enough.

[Congratulations to the host Wancheng mission. 】

[Mission Rating: SSS. 】

[Obtain a Platinum Blind Box. 】

Thoughts sank into his mind, Li Chen immediately decided to open the blind box to see what could be opened this time.

"Open the blind box." Li Chen responded in his mind.

[Open the Platinum Blind Box. 】

[Obtained, Platinum Items, Eight Bull Crossbow Drawings. 】

"Eight Bull Crossbow?" Li Chen looked at the system rewards, wondering how he would reward himself with this thing.

Well, maybe the system is implying that he can shoot well.

The eight-ox crossbow can definitely be called a platinum-level item. You must know that this is the most advanced weapon in the Song Dynasty, hundreds of years, nearly a thousand years ahead of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period.This kind of weapon can definitely be said to be a cross-age product in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms.

Eight-ox crossbow, also known as three-bow bed crossbow, can also be called ballista.What it shoots are not arrows, but javelins that are more than ten feet long.Take the javelin as the arrow, and the arrow feathers on the javelin are a circle of iron plates.Such a javelin is shot on the city wall and can be nailed deeply into the city wall.

The bow body of the eight-ox crossbow is composed of three huge bows. Normally, the bowstring is twisted by a winch.If manpower is used, it will take thirty soldiers to draw the bowstring.If oxen were used to draw the bow, a full eight oxen would be needed.Therefore, it is called the Eight Bull Crossbow.

The eight-ox crossbow blueprint rewarded by the system is the most powerful eight-ox crossbow in the Song Dynasty.The shooting range is a thousand steps, and one step in the Song Dynasty was about 1.53 meters, which means that the eight-ox crossbow has a shooting range of about 500 meters.

There are seven arrow slots on the crossbow arm of this eight-ox crossbow, and several arrows can be placed at the same time.The one in the middle is the largest, and it is used for launching a javelin that is about ten feet long. There are three arrows that are slightly smaller on each side.

Li Chen thought, his system is indeed a mature system.Knowing that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish, after giving himself the blueprint, he can recruit a steady stream of eight-ox crossbows.

The main function of the eight-ox crossbow is to defend and attack the city. Whether it is defending or attacking the city, it can be called a rare artifact.

Li Chen feels that his blind box system is too serious, and he always releases some tasks that make him left (want) right (stop) to do (not) difficult (impossible).Hey, if this goes on, my waist can't bear it a bit.

Luoyang, Jia Mansion.

At this time, Liu Bowen, Luo Yangxing and others were all in Jia Xu's mansion, and Jia Xu was inquiring about the news between Li Que and Guo Si.

"Military advisers, General Yuwen is back." Several people were discussing something when Jin Yiwei came to report.

Yuwen Chengdu strode into the hall, and everyone looked at Yuwen Chengdu in unison, only to see that the worry on Yuwen Chengdu's face had been swept away at this time.Everyone knew that they should have found Li Chen.

"General Yuwen, I have found my lord." Liu Bowen hurriedly confirmed.

Yu Wencheng nodded, and said to everyone: "I found it. It is indeed as expected by the military adviser. The commander-in-chief is in Li Que's convoy. The commander-in-chief is now settled in the Fenglinwan Inn."

After receiving Yuwen Chengdu's affirmative answer, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.They were protecting Li Chen, if Li Chen made a mistake, they would be to blame forever.

"Everyone, you should go out of the city for the time being."

"After the news of the loss of the convoy reaches the city, I'm afraid it will not be so easy for you to get out of the city." Jia Xu said to Liu Bowen and others.

"That's okay, everything is ready at this time, and it's only due to the east wind. After Luoyang becomes chaotic, it's not too late to make plans." Liu Bowen nodded in agreement.

Now that Yuxi has been obtained, and the Xiliang army also has two key figures, Jia Xu and Li Le, as internal support, Li Chen can be said to be invincible.

It is about a hundred miles outside Luoyang City.

Fenglin Night Inn.

This place has temporarily become the stronghold of Li Chen and others, and Li Chen is here to remotely control the situation in Luoyang City these days.

In Luoyang City, the situation seems to have changed slightly at this time.Li Que, Guo Si, and Zhang Ji's relationship has become worse and worse since the last conflict.

Li Que's convoy was robbed, and Cai Yan was robbed.For Li Que, the support from the Zuoxian King's Department of the Huns was naturally in vain.Li Que's reinforcements were in vain, but Guo Si and Zhang Ji's reinforcements were on their way.Today, Cao's cavalry is less than three hundred miles away from Hulao Pass.

This is definitely not good news for Li Que. Although it is unrealistic for Cao's cavalry to attack Hulao Pass, Xu Rong, who is also at Hulao Pass, was also restrained by Cao Jun.

Now, the situation in Luoyang City seems to be that Li Que, Guo Si, and Zhang Ji are about to separate their parents.

"My lord, Cao's army is only three hundred miles away from Hulao Pass, and our army is only two hundred miles away."

"It's just that this Hulao Pass is a terrain where one man guards the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it. If Xu Rong's army can't be moved away, I'm afraid none of us will be able to step into the Hulao Pass." Fenglin Wan Inn , Liu Bowen pointed to the map and said.

"Military Master, I'm going to settle this Luoyang City, we still have to think of a countermeasure." Li Chen asked.

"The lord really wants this Luoyang?" Liu Bowen asked.

Li Chen nodded and said frankly: "Although Luoyang City is an enclave for Xuzhou, it is the center of the entire Han Dynasty. Not to mention the population of more than 100 million, the most important thing is that this is the richest place in the entire Han Dynasty." place. As long as we can win Hulao Pass and Luoyang, we can also manage Luoyang like a bucket."

Li Chen wants Luoyang, Hulao Pass is the only one that can be opened, as long as Hulao Pass is taken, most of the enemies can be blocked.At that time, I will be manufacturing the eight-ox crossbow, and I will put hundreds or thousands of eight-ox crossbows on this tiger prison.Even if a million-strong army comes, it may not be able to win Hulao Pass.

Moreover, Luoyang City is also high and thick, easy to defend but difficult to attack.Li Chen is confident that as long as he can take Hulao Pass and Luoyang at the same time, he will be able to hold these two places.Especially with the eight-ox crossbow, a powerful weapon for defending the city, Li Chen's self-confidence exploded even more.

Liu Bowen pondered, he was thinking about Li Chen's words.What Li Chen said is correct, Luoyang City has a population of over one million.You know, the city of Xuzhou only has a population of more than [-].The population of Luoyang City is almost as high as that of Xuzhou City plus two or three counties.

Liu Bowen stared at the map, trying to find a way to take down Hulao Pass and Luoyang at the same time.
