All of a sudden, the craftsmen were stunned. They were all experienced in this field and had never heard of such a novel method before. An older craftsman called Yang Fa scratched his head and thought for a while. Then, he raised his head and carefully nodded towards Yang Lin.

"Master, I have heard of this bamboo piece and this piece of wood stuck together, but how this metal piece fits together with them, I really have not heard of this. The horns and tendons, too, were unheard-of. But the little ones can try it out for the adults and see if they can increase their range. "

Right now, the Imperial army had already launched an attack on the Wan City, it was as though Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun had gone mad, every day they would attack the city and every day they would die, whether it was the xanthopanax or the Court officers, they all suffered heavy casualties. Yang Lin did not have time to slowly test it out. He thought about it for a while and decided to get it all in place at once.

"Make me more compound bows. The bows will be three feet long, three feet two, three feet four, three feet six, three feet eight, and four feet long." Each dimension was then used to create six layers, eight layers, ten layers, twelve layers, sixteen layers, and eighteen layers of archers. I would like to see which composite bow fires the most. "

According to Yang Lin's arrangements, more than a dozen craftsmen used three days to first produce the composite strong arch, and then combined to form thirty-six strong crossbows. The artisans tried using all their strength to try, but they could not pull the strong arch away.

"Oh my god, such a tough strong arch, can ordinary people pull it away?"

Yang Lin's brothers were also paying attention to the production of the strong crossbows. When they heard that the strong crossbows were completed, they all ran over to give it a try. When Zhang Fei arrived, he immediately asked the blacksmith.

"Which crossbow is the hardest?"

When the old carpenter Yang Fa heard that Zhang Fei wanted the hardest one, he immediately gave the composite crossbow that had a length of 4 feet, with a length of 18 levels, to Zhang Fei.

"This one is the hardest."

Zhang Fei caught it in his hand, and held onto the bow with one hand while the other held onto the bowstring.

"Open."

However, the bow arm only opened slightly before it returned to its original state. Zhang Fei was so angry that he used all his strength to stare at the bow, but he was still unable to move it. No matter how hard Zhang Fei tried, he was unable to string the bow onto the crossbow. In the end, Zhang Fei set the crossbow down on the ground, and used his legs to support the bow. He pulled on the bowstring forcefully with both of his hands, and then barely hung it.

"What a strong bow …"

The other brothers had all come up to try, but these guys really were ox man. Other than the few strongest composite bow arms, most of the strong crossbows could be pulled away by them. Zhang Fei was even more unwilling to let go as he ran towards Yang Lin with his mouth wide open.

"Big brother, this crossbow is too satisfying. You have to make one for each of us. I want to see who dares to offend the other brothers in the future. I'll shoot them until their hearts are cold."

On the other hand, when the craftsmen saw the giant man playing with the crossbows like they were toys, they were extremely frightened. They were all dumbstruck, as if they were looking at a group of monsters.

"Oh my god, is he even human? "He's simply a group of celestial soldiers."

Even the three strategists were shocked. Even if they had to put in a lot of effort, they wouldn't be able to pull the lightest crossbow, so they couldn't help but feel discouraged. Xin Ping laughed bitterly and shook her head in embarrassment.

"This really isn't something we can do. It looks like we can only come up with ideas, but there's no hope for us to fight. Heh heh, generals are really powerful. Master, how about calling this crossbow the Arm of God strong crossbow? "

Although he spoke so casually, he was sighing in his heart. With this group of generals, who in this world would dare to offend him? If used well, it would be the fortune of the world. If used poorly, it would be the disaster of the world.

"Oh, that's a good name. Let's call it Arm of God strong crossbow."

That afternoon, Yang Lin called over a few scout s to test out the crossbows. However, Yang Lin quickly discovered that it was difficult for a soldier to control this crossbow as ordinary soldiers could not pull the string. Most strong crossbows had to be placed on the ground and stepped on with both feet, hands and feet, before they could be pulled off. As for those crossbows with multiple layers, it was impossible for one person to pull them off by himself. If they were on the battlefield, how much time and trouble would it take?

Yang Lin was satisfied with the results of the test. The toughest crossbow had a range of over 1200 steps, but not many people could use it. The crossbows were three feet six inches long, and had a combined sixteen-level crossbow with a range of over a thousand steps. Moreover, all the high-ranking officers could draw it back, so the effect was the best. If one wanted to equip the cavalry, most people would probably only be able to use crossbows with a length of three feet and two inches.

"In this mission, let's use the three foot six inch long bow and the sixteen layer compound Arm of God strong crossbow." When Lin Feng and Luo Yong escorted the Ying Chuan to Guangyang City, they saw Yang Lei from afar. After handing in the captives, Lin Feng and Luo Yong, who were determined to return home with their brothers, did not want to stay for even a moment longer. They turned and left Guangyang, bringing Jiang Po, Zhou Cang, Du Yuan, Du Yuan, the three thousand riders, and rushed to Nanyang.

Lin Feng and Luo Yong who were rushing back had more than three thousand cavalrymen, and without the burden of being captured, they were no longer afraid of the Guangzong. They decided not to take the detour, and directly passed by the Zhongshan and Chang Shan official roads, in order to reach the Nanyang as soon as possible.

Although it was still July, the weather had become much cooler. Piles of dark gray, hazy clouds pressed down on the ground. The leaves had begun to turn yellow, and they stood sullenly, letting the brown moss cover the wrinkles on their bodies. There were almost no crops in the fields, making it seem that the harvest this year was very poor. It was really a wonder how the people of Jizhou would be able to survive through this winter.

Lin Feng, Luo Yong were not in the mood to look at the scenery, they were only people of Jizhou. As they saw their clan's elders starving, they felt unwell in their hearts, but after thinking about it, they ordered the Cavalry to speed up and leave this place filled with sorrow.

Just as the group was rushing on their way, a few exorcism s suddenly ran past them. They raised their right hands and shook them towards the group from a distance.

"Reporting, about fifteen kilometers ahead, the officials and the army are fighting a great battle with the xanthopanax. The army is small, only a team of three thousand cavalry and thirty thousand foot soldiers. As for the xanthopanax, there are a total of one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers, and the army is retreating. "

Lin Feng and Luo Yong knew that no matter how good the three thousand Steel Cavalry were, they would not be able to withstand the impact of over a hundred thousand people. Lin Feng and Luo Yong did not have much time to think, they raised their trident and shouted an order to the rest of the riders.

"Accelerate forward and destroy xanthopanax."

Lin Feng and Luo Yong arrived in the blink of an eye as they lifted the spears in their hands. The red cherry blossoms on the spears swayed gently in the breeze, causing the entire Cavalry to slow down.

Looking ahead, on the desolate Jizhou Plains, one could see one hundred and fifty thousand xanthopanax standing in a formation, battling with the officials of the imperial government. Inside the formation of the xanthopanax, a Banner was flying with the word "General Tianguang" written on it. Below the Banner, there were soldiers with yellow scarves covering their heads with long spears and bows as they roared.

As for Dong Zhuo's three thousand cavalrymen, they were rushing left and right in the middle of the Yellow Mask Great Formation, slashing with their blades, stabbing with their spears, and the Arrows s dancing in the air. The Xiliang Steel Cavalry was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep as he charged into the great formation. The sharp spear pierced through the body of the xanthopanax's soldiers like a blade of straw. However, there were simply too many xanthopanax s. While the riders were killing the xanthopanax, dozens, or even dozens of xanthopanax s attacked them at the same time.

"Kill …"

Lin Feng and Luo Yong waved their arms and let out violent roars that cut across the sky. Their legs suddenly grabbed onto the horse belly as their warhorses roared and galloped forward. Lin Feng and Luo Yong's three edged spears pointed forward, and they took the lead to rush to Yellow Scarves' Great Formation.

"Kill …"

The over three thousand cavalrymen behind him shouted in unison, the sound was like thunder, the thousands of iron hooves stirred up a cloud of dust, like a surging torrent that swept across the wilderness, rushing towards Yellow Scarves' Great Formation. The biggest difference between Yang Lin's and Dong Zhuo's riders was that Yang Lin's riders mainly rode with bows and arrows, borrowing the speed of the horses, they shot the Arrows into the enemy ranks.

"Puff puff puff …"

Lin Feng and Luo Yong's cavalry charged towards them like a gust of wind, shooting out rows after rows of Arrows s, and like a gust of wind, they circled around Zhang Jiao's array, leaving behind a bunch of corpses and a bunch of wails.

Lin Feng's and Luo Yong's cavalry did not give Zhang Jiao any chance to retaliate. Then they would regroup a short distance away, and the same tactics would be used once more. After a few consecutive attacks, a big hole was torn open in Zhang Jiao's array formation. The xanthopanax's array formation started to crumble.

Dong Zhuo who was trapped in battle saw the riders who were rushing out from who knows where, and his confidence increased immediately, and he immediately commanded his horse to rush through the enemy lines recklessly. As for the other imperial government officials, when they saw the reinforcements arrive, their morale was even higher, and they immediately stopped their momentum of retreating, turning around to kill them.

"Heavens …"

Zhang Jiao who was in the middle of fighting with Dong Zhuo suddenly looked back. In the vast wilderness, the sound of hooves resounded throughout the land, as though there was a great army rushing over, immediately breaking out in cold sweat. Before the battle, he had sent out many exorcism s, but he did not notice any other officials in the vicinity. Could it be that these cavalry troops were descending from the sky?

"Retreat."

After fighting with Lu Zhi for a few months, he had learnt a lot of things. When he saw that a squadron of cavalrymen had rushed out midway and messed up his entire troop's formation, he immediately made a decision and ordered all the Yellow Scarves s to retreat, retreating fifty li and setting up his own camp.

"Ming Jin, return to camp."

Seeing Zhang Jiao retreating, the exhausted Dong Zhuo heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly ordered his troops to retreat. How close he was to defeating the Guangzong s, he had finally made it through. Although he had suffered heavy losses, his entire army had not been wiped out. He did not order his troops to chase after the xanthopanax, and immediately gathered the handicapped veterans, bringing them back to the camp.

Dong Zhuo did not care about the horseman that suddenly rushed out. In his mind, that cavalry army had only shot a few arrows, how could they compare to his Xiliang Steel Cavalry in battle. As for where they came from or where they were going, Dong Zhuo was too lazy to care. Someone who could help the imperial government's army was either a state or county official, or a country bumpkin who was loyal and courageous.

"Forget it, let's withdraw our troops as well."

Seeing that the xanthopanax had been defeated, Lin Feng and Luo Yong wanted to give chase. But when they saw that Dong Zhuo had decided to retreat and did not have any intention of chasing after the xanthopanax, Lin Feng and Luo Yong were somewhat surprised. Raising his trident, the riders quickly moved towards him and slowly regrouped their troops.
