Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 348 Act too hastily (third update, ask for a monthly pass!)

The problem that Alpha and others encountered was the crossbow.

Crossbows are the most powerful long-range weapons of the Han people. Lang Guan, who was in charge of assisting in the production of city defense equipment, naturally thought of making crossbows.On other defensive equipment, they cooperated fairly smoothly. In the production of crossbows, they encountered a big problem. The crossbow made according to Lang Guan's description could not function at all.

Liang Xiao is not a mechanical major, but he still understands the basic principles, and he understands it after listening to a few sentences.Langguans know how to use crossbows and know the appearance and structure of crossbows, but they don't know the specific size of crossbows, and crossbows are components that require extremely high precision. To put it a bit exaggeratedly, crossbows may be The core components of sophisticated weapons of this era cannot be imitated just by looking at them.

Liang Xiao made a decision.There is no rush for this matter, let it go for a while, and concentrate on doing what you can do first.The battle was imminent and his time was limited.

Alpha was a little ashamed and pleaded guilty again and again.

"Do you know how long it has been since our Han people invented the crossbow?"

Alpha shook his head.

"Han people have made crossbows for at least two or three hundred years. How can you copy them in a few days?" Although Liang Xiao was a little disappointed in his heart, he didn't show any signs on his face, instead he tried his best to comfort Alpha.She managed to build up a little confidence, and he didn't want to completely collapse because of the crossbow. "They often see the crossbow and can't explain it clearly, but you can figure it out just by listening?"

"How can we defeat the Huns if we can't make crossbows? We have too few archers."

"Without a crossbow, we can still defeat the Huns." Liang Xiao seemed confident. "King Hunxie didn't catch up with me on the grassland. King Youxian can defeat me if he squeezes in this valley? Three hundred warriors from Sparta can stop the 10,000+ army of Persia. I have more than 1000 people. Can't live with Youxian King?"

Alpha breathed a sigh of relief and finally smiled.

Liang Xiao walked around the workshop for a long time, and asked Alpha to gather the craftsmen together and listen to their reports on their progress.After comprehensively weighing various factors, he instructed Alpha to formulate a plan, sort out the importance, and give priority to the manufacture of the most needed equipment, such as arrows.Arrows are the bullets of this era, and their consumption is astonishing, requiring adequate reserves.

He didn't want to be like Li Ling in history, who failed because of exhaustion of arrows, and hated him for life.

As soon as Dongfang Shuo's carriage entered the territory of Kucha, he met Jose who was waiting. Li Danghu and others were also in the waiting team.

Dongfang Shuo got out of the car and greeted Jose, talking and laughing happily, full of confidence.

Seeing Dongfang Shuo's appearance, Jose, who was originally worried, relaxed a little. "Mr. Dongfang came from Wusun, did you tell the Wusun people the news that the Huns are about to invade?"

Dongfang Shuo laughed out loud. "Are you worried that the Wusun Yan family will take the opportunity to take revenge?"

Jose smiled sheepishly.He was indeed a little worried.Arikan of the Wusun Yan family is the daughter of the old king Hunxie. Her father and brother were killed by Liang Xiao, and the whole family of the Hunxie king was torn apart. How could she not hate Liang Xiao?Taking advantage of this opportunity, joining hands with King Youxian to kill Liang Xiao, is a perfectly normal choice.

"Don't worry, even if they are both Huns, the Hunxie King's Department and Youxian King's Department are not of the same mind. What's more, the Wusun Yan family is the Yan family of the Wusun people, not the Yan family of the Huns. Although Arukan is Women, but they know the general situation, and they will not destroy the city wall by themselves."

Jose was overjoyed, and immediately felt a little closer to Dongfang Shuo.Dongfang Shuo's words spoke from his heart.In his opinion, those Kucha people whose legs are limp when they hear the name of the Huns are not cowards who don't know the general idea and are inferior to women.

"Then Dongfang Jun thinks, what chance do we have in this battle?"

"Win and lose, one is in Daban, and the other is in Qiuci. If Qiuci can hold on to the city and refuse to accept the enslavement of the Huns, this battle will surely be won. If Qiuci surrenders without a fight and acts as a minion for the tiger, then this battle is bound to last for a long time. Let’s see who can last till the end.” Dongfang Shuo smiled and asked, “How long can the Kucha reserves supply the Huns?”

Jose's cheek twitched for a moment.He understood Dongfang Shuo's meaning.If the Huns want to persevere, they must rely on supplies from Kucha.Regardless of the final outcome, Kucha will suffer heavy losses.

"Every word of Mr. Dongfang is as precious as gold." Jose bowed his hands. "I also invite Mr. Dongfang to speak in front of King Kucha."

"That depends on whether King Qiuci is smart enough." Dongfang Shuo said unhurriedly, "I like talking to smart people like General."

Jose laughed and said a few words modestly, but he was full of pride in his heart.

Li Danghu secretly picked his thumb.Dongfang Shuo's mouth was not covered, and a few words could stabilize Jose's frightened little heart.Dongfang Shuo gave him a reproachful look, said nothing, and got into the car on his own.

Li Danghu was puzzled, but had no chance to ask.He held back all the way, until the break in the middle, he had the chance to be alone with Dongfang Shuo.As soon as the door was closed, Dongfang Shuo became very annoyed, and asked, "What is Liang Xiao thinking? Why didn't you persuade him? Are you dazzled by the small victory, and you actually want to fight the Huns at this time?" ?”

Li Danghu was a little surprised. "Manqian thinks it's wrong?"

"It's not only inappropriate, it's courting death." Dongfang Shuo's face was ashen, and he was almost about to curse. "Since the war in Dawan is over, why do you accept it? The Huns have done nothing and lost their strength, which is of course beneficial to me. But their strength is still there. How can I defeat them in a decisive battle at this time? With small gains, when the time comes Slowly nibble away, but I want to finish my work in one battle."

Li Danghu frowned.He only focused on the war, and didn't think about so many problems.Hearing what Dongfang Shuo said, it was indeed a bit inappropriate.

"How much chance does Manqian think she has?"

"Hardly." Dongfang Shuo was annoyed. "Qiuci is a big country, with a total force of less than [-] troops scattered in various cities. It is by no means an opponent of the Huns. Once the Huns' army overwhelms the border, Qiuci will surely surrender. At that time, the Huns will use the wealth of Qiuci as a support to sweep across the south of the Tianshan Mountains. , Wusun and Yuezhi will bow their heads and bow their heads. Although Daban is strong, how many people can be trusted in the city, if the Huns arrest the kings of various countries under the city, how can they defend the city?"

Li Danghu's complexion changed drastically, and he blurted out. "What should we do now?"

Dongfang Shuo shook his head helplessly. "It's too late to say anything now. The only thing we can do is to stabilize Kucha. Without the support of Kucha's national power, the Huns will hardly support them for too long, and they may retreat hastily. Liang Xiao probably thought of sending you here." at this point."

Li Danghu suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy.Kucha's gains and losses suddenly became the winners and losers, and he was not mentally prepared at all.

"I wrote a letter. You send someone to deliver it to Daban, and it must be handed over to Liang Xiao." Dongfang Shuo took out a piece of silk and put it in Li Danghu's hand. "Must, please."

Li Danghu nodded, folded the silk book carefully, and hid it in his bosom.Dongfang Shuo scratched his head in pain. "Liang Xiao, what evil are you doing? I traveled all the way to the Western Regions, and I can't have a day of leisure. If I knew this, I might as well stay in Chang'an and wait to die."

Li Danghu couldn't help laughing out loud.He had known Dongfang Shuo for so long, and it was the first time he saw Dongfang Shuo so sad.

Service Tu Valley.

Seeing Che Shi Wang, Hu Hu Wang, Bei Lu Wang and others who were summoned, You Xian Wang was furious.Especially the car master Wang Moyu, who was scolded bloody by him and humiliated.

The dangerous Daban was lost, the boy servant Duwei stationed in Cheshi was killed, Shan Huan, Qi Mi and other tribes were looted, and Liang Xiao had already killed the gate on the right side of the Xiongnu, which was equivalent to slapping the right sage on the face of King Youxian. He slapped hard.

"You tell me, how should I explain to Da Shanyu?" King Youxian looked at the kings and gritted his teeth like an enraged lion.

The kings bowed their heads, and no one dared to speak.The driver Wang Moyu also felt aggrieved.He was sure that the team that attacked Daban did not pass through Che Shi Kingdom, Daban was in his territory, how could he let the enemy pass by.But he couldn't tell what was going on. Those people might have passed through Pulei Sea, or they might have passed through Wusun territory. Although the possibility of passing through Pulei Sea was higher, Wusun's suspicion was not small.

Only Wusun people can cross the Tianshan Mountains, and they must know the secret way.More importantly, Wusun has been in close contact with the Han people recently.

However, King Che Shi only showed some interest, and was scolded by King Youxian.

King Youxian ordered all the countries to send troops and food to assist the Huns in recapturing Daban.Considering that the north side of Daban Fortress is a steep and narrow mountain pass, which is inconvenient for the army to deploy, King Youxian decided to attack from the south side of Daban.Therefore, Che Shiguo naturally became a transit point.King Youxian decided to stay in the Cheshi Kingdom to rest and wait for the troops and supplies from the other countries to be in place before launching an attack on Daban.

Che Shi Wang broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly knelt down to beg.There were only a total of more than [-] people in Che Shi Kingdom, and they were scattered in the mountains, so they couldn't afford to support [-] Huns.

"You don't have to worry. I know Che Shi can't afford it, and I won't be stationed in Che Shi for too long." You Xian Wang smiled sadly. "The kingdoms of Weixu and Yuli dared to betray the Xiongnu and send people to support Liang Xiao. How could I take them lightly? After I slaughtered the cities of Weixu and Yuli, I arrested the kings of Weixu and Yuli under the city, and chopped them down. Take their heads and see who else dares to betray me, the Huns."

"There is also Kucha." The chariot master Wang Mo and Daxi hurriedly reminded: "There are the most people in Kucha, and there are a thousand elite riders."

"Kuci?" King Youxian and King Rizhu exchanged glances. "Don't worry, the king of Kucha can't escape. Anyone who dares to betray me, the Huns, can't escape. I know that you usually envy the wealth of Kucha. This time, I allow you to accompany us to Yancheng Turtle." In the palace of the King of Zi, enjoy the women and fine wine of Kucha."

Mo Yu and the others were overjoyed, their eyes were like wolves.They have long coveted the wealth of Kucha, but they are not strong enough, they only have jealousy, and they dare not be presumptuous. Only the Huns are qualified to eat such fat.Now following the Huns to loot Kucha can not only open your eyes, but also compensate some losses of supporting the Huns, so why not do it.If King You Xian is happy and rewards them with Wei Xu and Yu Li, then they will really make a profit.
