Sanniang Li pulled out the crossbow and loaded it into the slot of the repeating Zhuge crossbow. Then, she stood in the position she thought was suitable and continued to shoot at the bullseye. This time, she continued to shoot without much pause.

As someone who had been in contact with martial arts since she was young, Sanniang Li was very familiar with shooting skills. One target, ten crossbows, one arrow after another, directly forming a circle on the target. This kind of aiming was really embarrassing.

"Ten arrows in a row, each one fatal. A crossbow like this will definitely be of great use on the battlefield. It seems that the heavens have blessed our Li family. Yun Yi, oh Yun Yi, how many talents have you not shown?”

Sanniang Li looked at the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow in her hand. Although it was a little heavy, one person could still hold it steadily. However, after a long time, it would definitely not be stable. Moreover, she felt that since such a small Zhuge Repeating Crossbow could be manufactured, what about a large Zhuge Repeating Crossbow? The lethality of such a Zhuge Repeating Crossbow must be very high.

However, at this moment, her personal maidservant Xiao Chun came over to report that Yun Yi had already prepared a meal. This time, it was mutton noodles.

When she heard that Yun Yi had cooked the food, Third Aunt Li's appetite was aroused. She did not care about the crossbow bolts that were still on the bullseye and directly brought the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow to the hall.

When she saw Yun Yi standing there teasing Yun Xue 'er, she immediately knelt down at the head of the table and said to Yun Yi,"This Zhuge Repeating Crossbow is indeed very powerful. Can we make a large Zhuge Repeating Crossbow? This kind of Zhuge Repeating Crossbow is suitable for arrow formation. However, if the enemy has a shield to block, we still don't have much chance of winning.”

Yun Yi felt that Third Aunt Li was being greedy. It was already not bad to have this Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, but it also needed a large one. Large Zhuge Repeating Crossbows were not easy to manufacture.

"We don't have the bowstring material for the large-scale Zhuge Repeating Crossbow. The bowstring of our Zhuge Repeating Crossbow is made of sheep's tendon. However, it can't be used for a long time. If it is used for a long time or too much, it will be damaged.”

When Sanniang Li heard that she could not make a large-scale Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, she did not care. As for the technical terms at the end, she did not listen because she was a little hungry. She immediately began to eat, ignoring Yun Yi who was watching from below.

For a woman who yearned to be a man, she did not care much about the red tape of women. It was her nature to eat and drink in big mouthfuls. It was also because she wanted to pretend to be a man that she did not care about these things.

Of course, Yun Yi also knew that according to etiquette, he should avoid it at this time. However, he was not a person of this era, so some etiquette of this era did not suit him, and it was not applicable to him.

From the first time he cooked for Sanniang Li and watched her eat the food he made, he did not avoid her much.

Looking at Li Sanniang eating the food she made, she felt a sense of happiness. She felt a sense of pride and satisfaction.

After enjoying the meal, Sanniang Li directly ordered,"Yun Yi, supervise those craftsmen now and immediately start making these Zhuge Repeating Crossbows for me. I need to see a hundred of these Zhuge Repeating Crossbows before tomorrow.”

Yun Yi was originally teasing Yun Xue 'er, but when he heard Third Aunt Li's instructions, he paused for a moment. In the end, he nodded and agreed." Alright, then wait for my good news."”

After explaining to Yun Xue 'er, he went straight to the supervisor and began his mission of making the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow.

After Yun Yi left, Sanniang Li took out a blueprint. The blueprint on this blueprint was the process of manufacturing the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow. It was very detailed. This blueprint was drawn by Yun Yi's guard. Although it didn't look very good, it could still be manufactured according to the explanation on it.

Sanniang Li had people pull out the bolts from the courtyard. After that, she put them into the slots of the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow and put it in her arsenal. This was the first Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, which had a different meaning.

After that, Sanniang Li passed the blueprint of the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow to Li Yuan, who was far away in Taiyuan. This was a great killing weapon. On the battlefield, it would definitely play a big role. Sanniang Li naturally thought of her own weapon.

In the middle of the night, Sanniang Li also received good news from Wugong County. Ma Sanbao had taken advantage of the Sui army's attack on Wugong County to attack the main camp of the Sui army. Then, he set fire to the camp. In the end, the Sui army had no food and no commander, so they retreated to Yu County.

This was the best news. For Sanniang Li, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Wugong County was defended. In other words, her position in Guanzhong was stable.

The next morning, Yun Yi was supervising the craftsmen making the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow when he heard the news from the guard beside him.

He heaved a sigh of relief. He might not have to run away again in the future. As long as Wugong County was stable, Shiping City would be safe.

After Ma Sanbao returned, Third Aunt Li showed him the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow. It was as if she could not wait to show off to others, as if she was showing off her treasure. However, in her heart, she did not know whether she was showing off the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow or Yun Yi.

Ma Sanbao was also stunned by the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow. He didn't expect that the long-lost Zhuge Repeating Crossbow would be resurrected. This was a great killing weapon in war. Ordinary crossbows would spend time on arrows, so they weren't used as a weapon to charge into battle.

However, with the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, as long as the enemy appeared within the firing range, it could shoot ten arrows in a row. If a soldier could shoot ten arrows in a row, then a hundred soldiers would be a thousand arrows. What about a thousand soldiers?

Ma Sanbao could already imagine such a scene. At this moment, he felt that it was a wise choice for Third Aunt Li to take Yun Yi in.

Yun Yi was like a person who had gathered the knowledge of hundreds of schools. One person was equivalent to a hundred thousand soldiers.

Ma Sanbao felt that if the Li family or Sanniang Li could attract absolute attention, he would be on the Li family's side now. However, if the Li family did something that would make him feel bad, he would definitely be the Li family's biggest enemy.

No one knew what else he knew, whether he was hiding his talents, or how much talent he had. Therefore, Yun Yi had to be able to help the Li family wholeheartedly and tie his heart to the Li family.

Looking at the happy Sanniang Li, Ma Sanbao's eyes lit up as if he was making a decision.
