Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Five: Special Crossbow Arrows

"Lord, I'm wondering, since the fleet has installed catapults, why not install Zhuge's giant crossbow. The catapults can be attacked from a long distance, and the giant crossbows can be destroyed at mid-range distance, while the archers consume it at close range. In this way, the Dragon Fleet will not be afraid of the enemy's surprise attack."

Dongfang Qiang is not distracted, but is thinking about how the fleet can be stronger. The catapult can only strike at a long range. Once the enemy attacks desperately, the catapult will lose its effectiveness.

When enemy ships are fed around, warships are inevitably not damaged. After all, warships are wrapped in iron sheets, physical or wooden structures!

If the Zhuge Giant Crossbow is installed on the warship, then the enemy ship can also conduct a medium-range strike when it is approaching. The Zhuge Giant Crossbow is very powerful and has the ability to penetrate the enemy ship at close range.

Of course, when the enemy wants to fight, the fleet can retreat, but if it cannot retreat, it must take the fight, just like Cai Mao attacked last time. If you retreat, the other person will attack the water camp.

Dongfangqiang's suggestions are very pertinent. All-round strike capabilities can indeed enhance the strength of the warship.

Moreover, it is solved that such a difficult thing to install a catapult cart, and installing a few giant crossbows is not a problem at all.

"Dongfang, you are really my blessing!"

After listening to Dongfang Qiang's suggestion, Wu Shun's eyes lit up. The warship could really continue to strengthen. Why didn't he expect it before?

Thoughts still have certain limitations!

Wu Shun said intimately.

Even talents like Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng did not think about installing giant crossbows in warships. It can be seen that they really have specialties in their profession.

Generals like Dongfang Qiang think about how to train soldiers and win battles every day. Zhuge Liang and the other two had too many things and their energy was too dispersed.

Wu Shun also wanted to find someone to reduce the burden on Zhuge Liang and the others, but the Wuling Army was "notorious" and the talents trained by Yizhou College still need to be honed step by step. He can't find talents who can directly share the pressure with Zhuge Liang and others for the time being.

"Everyone, Dongfang just made a suggestion to install Zhuge Giant Crossbow on the warship! What do you think?"

Wu Shun turned around and told everyone about Dongfang Qiang’s suggestions just now.

After listening, the generals' eyes at Dongfang Qiang changed.

The head general of the Suzaku Legion did not think about how to enhance the strength of the Suzaku Legion, but instead thought about how to enhance the warships. This mind is really ashamed.

"A great talent for General Eastern!"

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said:

"The warships are equipped with giant crossbows, and they have strong attack power both far and near, and the combat power of the Dragon Fleet has increased a lot."

"Yes, but the navy suddenly became so strong, and I felt very pressured! Hahaha..."

Wen Pin, the leader of the Xuanwu Legion, interrupted her mouth at this time, which made everyone laugh.

That's right, the navy suddenly became unreasonable, and they were the "old" elite legion Alexander.

Amid the laughter of everyone, the Dragon Fleet completed today's drill, and Gan Ning also got off the warship and walked towards Wu Shun.

"Xingba, you are lucky!"

Before Gan Ning could walk to Wu Shun, he was beaten by Shi Zhongyu.

"Haha, stinky stone, are you envious?"

Gan Ning returned to Shi Zhongyu and left a slutty word.

"Xingba, you are lucky!"

Shi Zhongyu said seriously.

"It's all given by the lord!"

Gan Ning patted Shi Zhongyu on the shoulder and said seriously.

Without Wu Shun, there would be no Wuling Navy, and there would be no today's Dragon Fleet!

After Shi Zhongyu, all the generals expressed their congratulations to Gan Ning. The navy was greatly strengthened shortly after the reconstruction of the navy. What an enviable thing.

After Gan Ning thanked him one by one, he came to Wu Shun and knelt on one knee:

"The last general Gan Ning, see the lord!"

"Xingba, how many times have you said that, there is no need to perform such a great gift!"

Wu Shun helped Gan Ning up, his eyes full of relief. Today's naval army's drill was very successful. Especially when he bombarded the target ship twice, the scene of debris flying around was really inspiring!

"Lord, when will you attack Jingzhou? The Jiaolong Legion asks for battle!"

The soldiers were ready. They wanted to destroy the Jingzhou naval army and dominate the Yangtze River basin! Then they had to go to the sea along the Yangtze River...

"Haha, Xingba, don't worry. It won't take long to go, and my Yizhou will be able to attack the Central Plains with water and land! But it's not the time yet."

Wu Shun spoke loudly because he said this not only to Gan Ning, but also to the important officials and generals in the army present.

"Don't worry, lord, when the Wuling Army goes to war, it will be invincible!"

This is the promise made by the generals of the Wuling Army to the lord Wu Shun!

One day, the Wuling army will enter the Central Plains, and it will definitely be a sweeping gesture!

"It won't take long for the troops to enter the Central Plains! In the days to come, please work together and train well!"

Wu Shun looked at the generals under his command with deep eyes.

"I will obey the order!"

All the generals responded.

After the naval army drill, the generals immediately returned to their respective garrisons. Wu Shun and Zhuge Liang were in Wuling County, and at the same time, they also recruited Pu Yuan. Because the warships needed to be modified, they needed to discuss.

In the prefect's mansion, Pu Yuan looked at the drawings in his hand and said helplessly:

"Lord, the warship can install up to four giant crossbows on each of the two strings. Too many giant crossbows will affect each other with the collision pole."

There are eight hitting rods on the warship and three on the side. To enable the warship to exert its maximum combat power, the Zhuge Giant Crossbow cannot be installed too many.

"Four? Twenty is eighty, and eighty giant crossbows are volleys, which is enough!"

Wu Shun smiled.

"Kong Ming, what do you think?"

Although he felt that it was enough, Wu Shun still wanted to hear Zhuge Liang's opinions and opinions.

"I'm afraid that Lord Pu Yuan will not have time to make it."

Zhuge Liang said.

Sometimes, the more weapons the better, the better. How could a person with an IQ like Zhuge Liang not understand this?

"Mr. Pu Yuan, I wonder if I can make some crossbow arrows with chains alone?"

Zhuge Liang asked Pu Yuan.

"A crossbow arrow with chains? Yes, yes, I don't know what it is for compared to a crossbow arrow?"

After Pu Yuan asked this, Wu Shun was also interested.

"Yes, Kong Ming, what's the use of this chained crossbow arrow?"

Wu Shun asked.

He knew that Zhuge Liang would not think of something unrealistic. If that kind of chain was of no use, he would not say it.

"Lord, during water war, if the enemy ship wants to run away, our warships cannot intercept it, what if?"

Zhuge Liang did not give a positive answer, but asked Wu Shun another question.

"The enemy ship is about to run away and cannot be intercepted. What else can I do?... Could it be that Kong Ming, you want to hook the enemy ship with a crossbow arrow?"

Once the crossbow arrows with chains hit the enemy ship, they will be embedded directly on it. If the chains are connected, the enemy ship will not be able to escape.

Thinking of this, Wu Shun had to admire the imagination of people of this era. He really gave some tips to think of anything.

"Can Lord Zhuge draw a sketch? Pu Yuan immediately after he returned."
