Chapter 263

"Crossbow cavalry?"

In Cangzhou camp, when Xiao Ming said what he thought, everyone looked puzzled. Even Niu Zhen shook his head slightly.

Because there was no crossbow cavalry in the history of Dayu state, because the crossbow could not be opened immediately.

Xiao Ming knew that these people would react like this.

At this time, Xiao Ming said: "in the Qin Dynasty, the Qin army had a crossbow cavalry. It was this crossbow cavalry that defeated the Huns, so it's not impossible to say that crossbow cavalry is not feasible."

In the knowledge of science and technology database, there are records about the Qin Dynasty crossbow cavalry, but many specific examples have no textual research, leaving only a few words.

Then Xiao Ming said: "the crossbow is powerful and accurate. It's an advantage. The only disadvantage of the horse is that it's difficult to get on the string. But my king will provide you with a new kind of crossbow. This kind of crossbow will be very easy to pull. In this way, guanning's cavalry won't be afraid of the barbarian's riding and shooting. Besides, there is another one. After dismounting, the soldiers can also form a crossbow array to kill the enemy. At the same time, everyone will be on the horse Equipped with a saber for close combat, even if facing the enemy head-on, I'm afraid the barbarians won't get any advantage. "

"Brand new crossbow?" Niu Zhen immediately realized, "I said that your highness will not shoot at a target aimlessly. Originally, he had already made preparations. If there is such a crossbow, it would be a good idea at this stage."

Lu Fei also said: "ha ha, our army will have a powerful weapon again."

A kind of Guan Ning's cavalry also looked excited when they heard the speech. They were fed up with the feeling of being hung from a distance by the barbarians and constantly being shot by bows and arrows.

Now that the situation in Cangzhou has stabilized, there is no need for Xiao Ming to stay in Cangzhou. He said, "I will go back to Qingzhou these two days and order the military workshop to produce this kind of pulley crossbow."

With that, Xiao Ming talks about the future development of guanning's cavalry.

At this time, he looked at Lei Ming and said, "Lei Ming, Guan Ning's iron cavalry will guard Cangzhou in the future and be responsible for continuously harassing the barbarians on the grassland. Are you confident that you are competent for this function?"

"Your Highness, I can!" Thunder said firmly.

Xiao Ming continued: "but when you enter the grassland next, you have one more thing to pay attention to."

"Your Highness, please." Thunder said.

Xiao Ming and Niu Zhen looked at each other and said, "before Cangzhou City, there was a conflict between the barbarians and the slave soldiers, which made the king see that some of the slave soldiers were not willing to serve the barbarians. Especially in the hometown of Youzhou, many people in Youzhou lived under the rule of the barbarians. You should try your best to attract these people when you enter the grassland, if they can return to the state of Dayu, This is also the great fortune of our country. "

Thunder nodded.

This time, he and Lu Fei entered the grassland and found that there were still some cities in some places, in which many people of Youzhou lived.

After the barbarians occupied Youzhou, although a lot of cultivated land was turned into grassland, the barbarians did not kill all the people in Youzhou, but they carried out a more evil way of ruling.

Referring to this, Lei Ming's eyes are scarlet. He said: "according to the captured barbarian prisoners, the barbarians call the people of Youzhou two legged sheep. This sheep is not a four legged sheep, but a two legged sheep. These cities are sheepfolds."

"These Youzhou people who lived under the rule of the barbarians lived a miserable life. They not only had to pay heavy taxes, but once the male in their family was over 12 years old, they would enter the barbarian tribe as slaves. If they didn't obey, they would be killed, and the female was even more miserable. Before marriage, young women had to go to the head of the barbarian tribe. The barbarians called chuyequan, and many people even killed their first child, Because he didn't want a child of mixed barbarian blood to be born

All the soldiers of guanning's cavalry clenched their fists, and their teeth clenched.

Xiao Ming then said, "I'm ashamed that the two wars killed our own people in Dayu. The barbarians didn't hurt their bones and muscles at all. However, facing the people of Youzhou in Dayu, they can only watch their lives so miserable. Ah..."

"Your Highness doesn't have to blame himself so much. I believe that the victory of Cangzhou war certainly gives the people of Youzhou hope. As long as your highness can resist, they will be free one day." Niu said.

Thunder also nodded, "Your Highness, now only your highness can win the barbarians in the whole Dayu kingdom. We believe what you say. After we enter the grassland, we will try to help these Youzhou people escape."

Xiao Ming nodded, "but you also have to be careful. There will inevitably be some people who forget their ancestors. They are not sure. Don't act rashly."

Thunder nodded.

He made a development plan for guanning Tieqi, and Xiao Ming's work in Cangzhou was basically over.

The next day, he, Niu Zhen, Lu Fei and Luo Xin set out for Qingzhou City, while thunder stayed. From then on, grassland was his battlefield.

Five days later, they returned to Qingzhou City.

At this time, nearly two months have passed. At this time, it is winter, and the ice can be seen on the river of Qingzhou.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ming was filled with emotion. It has been a year since he came to this world.In this year, too many things happened, and he also went from being a vassal with nothing to now being able to face the 100000 armies of barbarians alone.

He is the only one who can understand the hardships here.

But all the hard work is worth it. At least now he has his own family business, and he doesn't have to worry about losing his life at any time.

"Your Highness is back, your highness is back!"

When he arrived at the palace of king Qi, the sweeper at the door saw Xiao Ming coming back, dropped his broom and ran back to the palace happily to advertise it.

After a while, aster and lvluo came out wearing delicate cotton padded jacket.

"Your Highness." See Xiao Ming, aster and green Luo excited cry, voice as clear as lark.

Xiao Ming smiles coldly, and the spirit of killing and cutting in his heart melts like ice and snow at this moment. He suddenly has a feeling of going home.

Yes, in a year, he has taken the palace as his home, and these servants are his family.

"Did you miss me?" Xiao Ming dismounts and grins at this moment.

Both aster and lvluo turned red, and his highness was too Bohemian to say such shameful words in front of so many servants.

Seeing the shy appearance of aster and lvluo, Xiao Ming laughed more and more happily.

However, when he saw two small cotton padded jackets, one green and one purple, he could not help asking, "is this from the textile mill?"

"No, in the past two months, your Highness has been spinning a lot of cloth in the textile workshop. We made cotton padded jackets for ourselves with this cloth. We also made two pieces for your highness. Would you like to have a look?"

Xiao Ming's heart was warm, but they were still two girls. He said, "go back and have a look."
