Three Kingdoms: I Have a Showdown, I Am Cao Cao

Yi Xiaotian raised the crossbow machine he had just cut and kept adjusting it according to the blueprint in front of him.

The crossbow consists of two parts, the crossbow machine and the crossbow arm... Of course, the bow part is also very important, but at present the most critical part of the entire crossbow body is the first two parts.

In simple terms, the part held by a human, including the entire lower part of the launcher such as the tongue, is the crossbow machine of the crossbow.

And the upper part, generally the part like the barrel that is responsible for firing crossbow bolts, is the crossbow arm.

Since ancient times, when the crossbow arms were made separately, the materials used were not the same.

Usually crossbow arms are made of wood, mainly used for bow support, string support, and end holding. This part has a relatively small technical content, so in order to reduce costs, wood is often the main material.

The crossbow machine includes four parts, Guo, Ya, Wangshan and Xuandao, which require precision, toughness and durability. Therefore, copper is often the material of choice.

What Yi Xiaotian and Huang Yueying did again was to study how to expand the Guo (box) in the crossbow machine to load more crossbow bolts.

The second is to adjust the hanging knife (trigger) until the crossbow machine can really do bursts without having to tediously pull the bow.

After putting all the problems together, the last thing to do is to seek to produce the highest quality at the lowest cost.

Three days ago, the design of Yuan Rong's crossbow was still on paper, but after knowing the current predicament, Huang Yueying burst out with unimaginable energy. Three days, from drawings to real objects, he even made various adjustments to make There were no less than ten experimental items.

Because of the need for precise cutting, the craftsmen of the Huang family usually make enough materials for the two of them, while waiting for the appearance of the finished product at any time - as long as Huang Yueying has made the final product, Xiangyang, who has received the favor of Huang Yueying, is near. Hundreds of highly skilled craftsmen will mass-produce this Yuan Rong crossbow at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment, obviously, the parts of the last finished product have been placed on the table.

Yi Xiaotian helped with the assembly, and out of the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of Huang Yueying's fingers that were cut full of wounds for making hanging knives these days.

After a stick of incense—

The two stared silently at the strangely shaped repeating crossbow in front of them, and then looked at each other.

"Sir...it should be this..."

Huang Yueying smiled, and the haggard face made Yi Xiaotian feel extremely distressed... I didn't sleep for two days, just because of her own words, Huang Yueying's help to Yi Xiaotian was beyond words to thank.

"Thanks for your hard work…"

Yi Xiaotian smiled ashamed.

And Huang Yueying just responded sweetly:

"No... At this moment, Yueying is only grateful to her husband... Without her husband, Yueying may not be able to accomplish such delicate things in her life... As long as she can help her husband, Yueying will be satisfied..."

"Ok!"

Yi Xiaotian smiled softly, and then nodded heavily.

The last step... Yi Xiaotian picked up the crossbow.

"It's so light..."

This is Yi Xiaotian's first feeling, and this is the huge change that Huang Yueying has brought to Repeating Crossbow.

Next to them was a crossbow that had been remodeled by Huang Yueying... A real crossbow could be kicked with the feet. After being remodeled by Huang Yueying, it had become a very lightweight short crossbow.

But even so, compared to the repeating crossbow in Yi Xiaotian's hands, the crossbow was definitely several times heavier.

All wood... This is a very unrealistic request from Yi Xiaotian, but even so, Huang Yueying did it.

And the reason why Yi Xiaotian needs all wood is very simple...

Because they don't have much time, they can't raise enough metal in a short period of time, let alone burn the metal into the shape of the various parts of the crossbow machine.

Now, only the all-wooden repeating crossbow can meet their requirements for defending the city.

And for the sake of wood, it is necessary to give up enough strength, how to maintain a certain degree of service life while maintaining high strength, just for this, the two have been busy for a whole night without closing their eyes.

Yi Xiaotian quickly loaded ten crossbow arrows in the box and hung the bowstring. Then, he aimed at the fence in the distance and slowly pulled the trigger.

whoosh-

The crossbow arrow broke through the wind and shot through the wooden fence exactly.

Yi Xiaotian pulled the trigger continuously, and shot arrows at his target with great precision.

Zhen Luo stared at this scene dumbfounded, while Huang Yueying closed her eyes contentedly.

"Ah! Sister Yueying!"

Yi Xiaotian shouted excitedly:

"It's done! It's done!"

However, when he looked back, he found that Huang Yueying was gone.

After hearing Zhen Luo's exclamation, Yi Xiaocai hurriedly looked to the ground.

Zhen Luo was lying on the ground at the moment, her small chest was beating up and down...

Fortunately, Yi Xiaotian's reaction was fairly quick, so he quickly put down the crossbow and squatted down to help Huang Yueying.

Yi Xiaotian felt Huang Yueying's pulse, and after listening to her even breathing, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhen Luo suddenly fell to the ground and looked at Yi Xiaotian with tears in his eyes:

"Sir, what's wrong with Sister Yueying? She'll be fine, right! Right?"

Yi Xiaotian showed a helpless smile:

"She's so tired, it's all because of me... Go make some hot soup for her, take a rest, it should be fine..."

Chapter [-]: Brainless Liu Yuzhou

On the one hand, Cao Cao was worried about how to defend Xiangyang with less than [-] troops. His argument with Yi Xiaotian was that Cao Cao had withdrawn directly to Xudu and would soon send reinforcements to assist Xiangyang... Xudu is next to Luoyang. , not to mention waiting for reinforcements to arrive, that is, waiting for the so-called "Cao Cao" to return to Xudu, Xiangyang has already entered the city.

From Jiangling to Xiangyang, it is only a three-day distance. If you go into battle lightly, you will be able to kill Xiangyang in two days and one night. It is said that it is reinforcements. In fact, Xiangyang is completely isolated and helpless.

Otherwise, Cao Cao wouldn't need to defeat his family's morale... This battle is really a big deal.

-

On the other hand, with the withdrawal of Yu Jin, Zhang He and others, Jiangling, an extremely important county in Jingzhou, was also captured by the Sun and Liu allied forces.

The chasing troops of the Sun and Liu families joined forces in Jiangling, and of course the goal was to go north... As long as they could take Xiangyang, they would hold most of Jingzhou's resources in their hands.

For this reason, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei and Dong Xi and Chen Wu did not advance rashly.

One is that although the two companies have cooperated in strategy, a real joint military march is still impossible without a coach.

Secondly, attacking Xiangyang is a major event, and no one dares to take this responsibility, so the two sides have a tacit understanding and settled in Jiangling, waiting for their own coaches to come to Jiangling to lead the attack...

In one day, Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang took Liu Bei, and they came to Jiangling one after another... Seeing the corpse of Cao Jun all over the city, Zhou Yu's restless heart eased a little—

Zhou Yu came first, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei were about two hours late. After getting the news, Zhou Yu also went to greet the two with grace.

...

The wind was blowing and the clouds were flying—somehow, when Liu Bei was suddenly approaching Jiangling, he thought of this poem.

He blurted out, scaring the soldiers behind him.

Especially Zhuge Liang who rode a carriage...

When Zhuge Liang saw Liu Bei's smug look outside the car, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.

"My lord... Next, in the battle in Xiangyang, there is no room for mistakes, let's hurry up..."

Zhuge Liang reminded Liu Bei, who was obviously a little flirtatious, but Liu Bei had obviously forgotten the regret of not being able to kill Cao Cao before. He leaned to the side of the carriage with a smile and said to Kong Ming, who was recovering in the carriage:

"Teacher, don't you realize that after we defeated the mighty Cao Cao, it was as beautiful as when Gaozu killed the traitor Ying Bu?"

"Ha ha…"

Zhuge Liang wanted to scold Liu Bei very much now, but unfortunately Liu Bei was his lord, and he didn't know how many years he would have to assist Liu Bei, so Zhuge Liang chose to give up.

Zhuge Liang regretted not being able to capture Cao Cao the most, followed by Zhou Yu, who got the news later. On Zhou Yu's side, Cheng Pu, Gan Ning, and Ling Tong, a rising star, were all generals under his command. , but because Guan Yu released Cao Cao, he had to go after him.

It's okay not to chase, but after chasing three people directly.

I heard that Zhou Yu smashed all his guqin over and over after he got the news at that time, which is enough to show Zhou Yu's anger.

The three generals claimed to Zhou Yu that they were the three who fought against Dian Wei, and eventually suffered serious injuries and lost their ability to fight, but Zhou Yu, who knew what had happened, was fully aware that Cheng Pu and Gan Ning had encountered Dian Wei's terror head-on. Resistance, now there is simply a demon, Gan Ning will shout as long as he mounts a horse, and then fall to the ground himself, while Cheng Pu is no longer able to fight against Cao Jun.

What's even more ridiculous is Ling Tong. Ling Tong, who is in his twenties, has superb martial arts skills, and is better than his father Ling Cao in commanding the army. But when he first entered the battlefield, he saw the evil come Dian Wei to kill with his own power. The terrifying scene of [-] troops on my side, I was scared to pee my pants, but after returning to Chaisang, I couldn't even lift the knife...

Zhou Yu hates it, if Guan Yu hadn't let Cao Cao go, how could the following things have happened?

If Guan Yu hadn't let Cao Cao go, at the moment the chaos in the north, Soochow Wu could take advantage of the situation and attack the capital of Xu in the north - yes, there was no Guan Yu, and now it is Soochow Wu who is holding the emperor to make the princes!

So Zhou Yu hasn't calmed down until now.

Only "no brains" Liu Bei laughed at this moment, and even felt that he was quite handsome. Guan Yu was punished, but Liu Bei had to intercede with him. This time Zhuge Liang vomited blood again, but fortunately, he had a bottom line in his heart and knew that Liu Bei was right. Zhuge Liang kept Guan Yu's patience in his heart.

"Can't be provoked, can't I hide?"

Now Guan Yu was left behind by Zhuge Liang, and started his old job - protecting A Dou and his two wives.

No matter what Zhuge Liang said, Guan Yu would not be allowed to go to the front again.

Speechless all the way, in the end Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang met Zhou Yu's team to greet them at a place ten miles away from Jiangling.

Zhou Yu saw Liu Bei's hippie smiling face from a distance, and his eyelids couldn't help beating wildly.

He forcibly lowered his voice, and complained fiercely to those around him, such as Xu Sheng and Huang Gai:

"How could he still have the face to laugh!!"

Hearing Zhou Yu's gnashing of teeth, everyone pouted, expressing that they were powerless.

However, Zhou Yu is also a natural actor, and when he got closer, Zhou Yu immediately showed a smile.

"Hahaha, Liu Yuzhou, there is something to be missed!"

"Hahaha, don't come here, Gongjin. I didn't expect you to be in such a hurry. We have already arrived in Jiangling..."

Liu Bei laughed, and after dismounting, he went up to meet him.

Zhuge Liang staggered, lifted the curtain of the car, was helped down to the ground, and met Zhou Yu at a glance from a distance.

With a constipated expression, Zhou Yu frantically questioned Zhuge Liang with his eyes:

"You motherfuckers are still smiling? If it weren't for you, Cao Cao would have been executed, and the three generals under my command would not have lost their fighting power..."

Zhuge Liang had a bitter face, the feather fan in his hand was fanning as fast as he could, and his eyeballs rolled, as if to explain his grievance:

"Don't ask me! I don't want to, it's all the fault of the idiot in front of you. I explained to him that Cao Cao can't let go, and Guan Yu let Cao Cao go, but he still feels bad about Guan Yu being punished... me It doesn't matter at all!"
