Chapter 260 Bomb Catapult

"Damn it, isn't this nonsense! This is a battlefield, not a fight with bandits and bandits!"

Zhao Kang cursed, but his eyes were red.

Normally, Zhang Long and others would have lowered their heads and been reprimanded, but not this time.

More than 300 people were in high spirits.

Brother Diao exclaimed: "So what? Just keep fucking him!"

"That's it! Damn it! If they don't all have one nose and two eyes, how can they, the people of Zhou and Qi, have three heads and six arms?"

Chen Xuanlong and Zhou Long looked at each other, this is a group of fools who are not afraid of anything.

Zhang Long walked in and asked someone to quickly open the carriage, pulling Zhao Kang along as if offering a treasure: "Master, please don't scold me yet. Look at what I have brought to you."

Zhao Kang and others walked in and saw two adult-sized iron balls stacked in the box.

Zhao Kang's eyes bulged, why is this thing so similar to a bomb?

"This is?"

"Bomb! As you said, Master, Lao Li made it himself according to your ideas. It is very powerful, but it is too troublesome to make."

Zhang Long said: "After more than half a year, I spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to get just these four thousand pieces. The craftsmanship is still not mature enough."

"Holy shit, you guys really did it! How do you use this thing, Lao Li?" Zhao Kang was shocked.

Li Goudan walked out with a flattering smile: "Just light it and throw it out. But the person using it must have strong arms. This thing weighs two kilograms, and most people can't throw it out."

"Brother Diao can only throw it about three to four feet in one breath. But it is very powerful. With just one like that, your county office almost collapsed."

Zhao Kang was confused: "Why did you blow up my county government office?"

Li Goudan smiled awkwardly: "This thing is too powerful. There are important areas everywhere in the county, and there is still construction outside the city. It won't be good to blow up anywhere. After thinking about it, your broken county government is okay, so we will

Let’s take action there.”

"And these!"

Zhang Long opened another box. Inside, there were arrows on the upper level and arrow shafts on the lower level.

Zhou Long saw this: "Good stuff!"

He was about to grab a few arrowheads to check, but Zhang Long quickly stopped him: "General, don't touch it yet!"

"What's wrong?" Zhou Long was puzzled.

Doctor Lin yawned, "General, these arrows are quenched with the poison I made with all my heart. If they are accidentally scratched, a cut as small as a fingernail can kill someone!"

Zhao Kang couldn't laugh or cry. Has this guy forgotten that he is a doctor who treats illnesses and saves lives?

Still addicted to studying poison.

He noticed something was wrong with the color of these arrows, looked at Zhang Long and asked: "We didn't produce these arrows ourselves, right?"

"The master is wise."

Zhang Long flattered him, and then whispered: "It was shipped to our Yuanjiang County from Youzhou."

"Thirty thousand arrows and four thousand swords! They are so sharp that ordinary armor cannot stop them."

Zhao Kang: "It was sent from Youzhou, who asked it to be sent?"

"His Majesty."

Zhang Long said softly: "Your Majesty ordered Youzhou to send the weapons made in advance to Yuanjiang County, and we will send them to the front line."

"General Liu." Zhao Kang said immediately.

Liu Jihan, the leader of the more than 3,000 trapped soldiers left behind by Ye Hongxue, came out and said respectfully: "The general is here."

"Let your people come and get the sword, Lin Erniu, is this sword not quenched with poison?"

Doctor Lin hurriedly said: "No, this thing is too sharp and I don't dare to touch it casually."

"You boy."

Zhao Kang was very happy: "Okay, don't stand still and unload the things. General Zhou, please call the army craftsmen to assemble the arrows and tell them to be careful. The poison of Erniu is not a joke."

"clear."

Zhang Long and others followed Zhao Kang into the camp. This was their first time walking into such a place, and they were very curious about everything they saw.

Seeing everyone sitting down, Diao Ge said: "Master, in addition to the weapons and equipment we sent, there are also twenty carriages of food and grass. It was sent by General Zhang Zheng and General Ye from Tongzhou."

"It just so happens that the army's food and grass are indeed somewhat scarce. Let the quartermaster take stock and store it in storage. Zhang Long, you..."

Seemingly knowing what Zhao Kang was going to say, Zhang Long interrupted Zhao Kang: "Master, if you want the brothers to go back, don't say anything. Either we go together, or the brothers stay and fight with you.

Win this battle."

Zhao Kang smiled bitterly: "This is not just playing house. Even I can't bear the dangers of the battlefield, let alone you?"

Zhang Long shook his head: "That's true, but it's not like we brothers have never seen blood. No matter how strong the enemy is, so what?"

"I know your concern, and starting from tomorrow, I will ask you to incorporate our brothers into the army and let the generals train them well. I promise to follow the orders and prohibitions!"

"Yes, sir, if you can't go back, then we won't leave either! Now that we're here, we don't think about going back alive. As long as you can help me, we can do anything!"

A group of people looked at Zhao Kang with excited expressions. Chen Xuanlong and others were surprised. They did not expect that Zhao Kang had such loyal subordinates.

Even if he risked his life to deliver weapons, food and grass even though he traveled thousands of miles, he still had such great ambitions!

Listening to everyone's words, Zhao Kang was extremely excited for a moment: "Okay! Then I will take you to kill him again! I will not return until I defeat the enemy!"

"I swear I will never return until I defeat the enemy!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

The arrival of Zhang Long and others injected another vitality into the already high morale of Jinlin Pass.

The next day, the enemy did not attack again.

Zhao Kang handed over Zhang Long and others to Liu Jihan, a trapper. They were not new recruits who had never seen blood.

On the contrary, their combat capabilities are very strong, but what they lack is systematic battle formation training.

It's just right to give it to the trapped warriors for training.

Zhao Kang, on the other hand, took the military craftsmen together to study how to use the bombs sent by Zhang Long and others.

I tried weighing the bomb in my hand, and it was just as Li Goudan said.

This thing weighs two kilograms, so not everyone can use it.

The craftsman in the army studied it for a long time and gave up: "Master, I think this thing can only be thrown down from the wall, let alone explode. An iron lump weighing more than two kilograms can kill someone if hit."

"I'm afraid it won't work if you want to throw yourself into the middle of a dense enemy army."

"Can't you throw it out?"

Zhao Kang suddenly thought of something and looked at the craftsman: "Have you ever heard of a catapult?"

"Trebuchet? What is that?" The craftsman shook his head.

"Just like this."

Zhao Kang asked the people on the side to take off the weapon, raise it up, put the tip of the knife downward and then press the handle.

The tip of the knife tilts up.

The craftsman's eyes lit up and he put a stone on the tip of the knife and tested it. The stone bounced off the tip of the knife.

"I understand what you mean, Imperial Master."

The craftsman was delighted: "If we can make a tool to throw bombs into the crowd, we can effectively kill the enemy!"
