"If I had my halberds, I would have done it long ago.。。Long ago..." Dian Wei was regretting that he didn't bring the two halberds with him. After all, he had been practicing halberd techniques for many years, and there were countless enemies under his halberds. However, when he thought of Liu Chong's terrifying attack speed, he suddenly lost his breath. He couldn't help but feel hopeless. Even if he had a suitable weapon, didn't Liu Chong also have his own weapon? The confidence that he had built up over the years was destroyed.
Liu Chong no longer paid any attention to them and ordered the entire formation,"After today's training, your entire team will do an extra 1,000 push-ups! Including you, Dian Wei! Remember, you are a group. No matter who makes a mistake, it will hurt the group!”
After saying that, he walked back without looking back. When he passed by Zhang Ping, he lowered his voice,"Hurry up and bring him to Divine Doctor Hua! You must treat him well!"
Zhang Ping almost couldn't believe his ears. He confirmed again,""Now? Then, those 1,000…"
Before he could finish, he saw Liu Chong's hand waving gently below. He hurriedly swallowed the words he wanted to say.
After Liu Chong's figure disappeared from the field, Zhang Ping immediately ordered a few guards to carry Dian Wei to the hospital for treatment.
"Everyone! One thousand push-ups, lie down!" Zhang Ping's order rang out on the drill ground. All the guards of Team A except Dian Wei fell to the ground with a swoosh and did push-ups.
"One, two, three…" The order sounded like a drum beating on the hearts of the guards in Zhongwei Village, as well as the hearts of the guards in the entire Guards. It gave them a collective lesson. Liu Chong, who felt that there was still room for training, immediately increased the amount of training for everyone. It made the entire Guards unable to do anything other than eat during training. It turned out that those guys who had additional training did not have the strength to train anymore.
After what happened last time, Dian Wei trained even harder, and the results were apparent very quickly. Other than his well-developed muscles, his reflexes and speed had also improved a lot. It seemed that Liu Chong had stimulated him quite a bit. In order not to become a burden and a waste to the group, he was working hard and waiting for the opportunity to prove himself again.
Of course, Liu Chong was not idle. Other than asking about the affairs of the Prince's mansion, he spent the rest of his time training. He knew that if he did not advance, he would fall behind. The amount of training was not any less than before.
"Ding! Ding! Ding..." The ten or so crossbow bolts flew into the target 150 steps away like lightning, nailing the entire target densely.
"Your Highness, they all hit the target!" Little Cabinet reported eagerly. He had been extremely busy recently. Because Man 'er was not by his side, he had taken care of all of her meals and daily life. However, he did not complain and was still extremely busy, even fighting over the task of reporting targets. This made Liu Chong sigh with emotion. No wonder people liked this kind of person. They served him so well that he could not find a single thorn in his side. He had to be more vigilant and not fall for the sugar-coated bullet.
"Haha! Big Lu, you guys have done a great job this time! Pass down the order to increase the salary of the craftsmen who participated in this matter by one level and reward them with one gold!”Liu Chong was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Your Highness! This is all part of our duty. If it wasn't for your guidance, we wouldn't have been able to make this crossbow so quickly!”Lu Da said humbly.
"Merits must be rewarded, and mistakes must be punished. Don't say anything more. Go down and receive your reward! I want 1,100 of these crossbows in three months. Is that okay?”Liu Chong asked Lu Da with a face full of anticipation. If there were 1,100 of these crossbows, then almost every one of his guards could have one.
Modern crossbows were still used as a special weapon by the special forces. They were usually used in special operations, such as blocking. Although he wanted to make gunpowder weapons as a soldier, it was impossible to do so with the current craftsmanship. Therefore, he could only settle for the second best and use this crossbow as a standard weapon for everyone to use.
Therefore, as soon as he recruited good people, he coaxed Luo Jun to get more than 100 crossbows, including some repeating crossbows. However, when he took a look at the crossbows used by the Han army, he found that they were still stuck at the level of single shot or three shots per crossbow, which was difficult to adapt to his future combat needs. In Liu Chong's idea, the crossbows that his guards needed were the kind that could be used with a single shot, so that they could kill the enemy in one shot when performing some clearing missions or blocking missions, and improve the accuracy of the attack. They also had to be able to shoot more than ten arrows in a row, so that they could provide powerful firepower support for other troops in the battle. Therefore, only three arrows in a row could not meet the needs.
When he told Big Lu and the others about his requirements, everyone thought that he was talking nonsense. This repeating crossbow had been invented for many years. If it could increase the number of shots, someone would have made it long ago. Why would they think about it? Moreover, they had to be able to switch between single shot and continuous shot, and control the range of the arrow when it was fired. These requirements were simply impossible in their minds.
However, Liu Chong knew that it was definitely possible to shoot at least ten arrows in a row. According to historical records, the crossbow invented by Zhuge Liang could shoot more than ten arrows in a row. At that time, the crossbowmen of the Shu Kingdom were also famous and had made outstanding military achievements. Therefore, under his insistence, Liu Chong told the craftsmen in charge of the crossbow machine some of the characteristics of the modern military crossbow. After several failures, they finally made a crossbow that basically met his requirements.
Lu Da looked troubled. The craftsmen had a lot of work to do during this period of time. They had to forge weapons, sabers, and armors. If they had to forge more crossbows for more than a thousand people, it would be too much for them.
"Is there any difficulty?"
"Replying to your highness, it is indeed a little difficult. We don't have enough manpower, and we have weapons and armor.”Big Lu answered honestly.
"The manpower is easy to handle. I'll go and invite them now! In addition, you can sub-contract the work of making crossbows. By then, we will only be responsible for the important parts and assembly. I think this can greatly increase the speed!”Liu Chong suggested.
"Ah! "Why didn't I think of that? Our Chen Kingdom has many craftsmen. Because this place is adjacent to Runan, many of them are unwilling to join our Wang Fu's craftsmen camp. However, if we give them some unimportant work to do, it will definitely be the best of both worlds! Your highness, this lowly one will do it right away. I guarantee to complete the mission!”
"Good!"
