Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

No wonder Guan Lin was surprised that the old man made Qin Nu...

You know, the Qin Nu was completely lost in the late Han Dynasty.

Speaking of which, the strength of the Han army lies in the forging of weapons.

The sharpness of the Han people's long swords and halberds was due to the increasingly mature iron-making skills and the budding period of steel-making.

The Qin army is strong because of the Qin crossbow.

Historical Records records that crossbows have appeared on the stage of history since the famous Qi and Wei Maling battles during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the sword of Zheng State, the scale of Song State, the dagger of Lu State, the sword of Wu Yue...

When it comes to crossbows, South Korea is world-famous. It is said that all the best bows and crossbows in the world come from Korea!

However, during the Warring States Period, South Korea's crossbow manufacturing technology flourished in the Qin State. Under its standardized construction, Qin's crossbows far surpassed the six countries in quantity and quality.

The people of Qin also pay attention to the strong crossbow in front and the spear behind! when fighting.

Whether it is in ancient books or rumors, there are too many stories about Qin Nu.

According to legend...During the Battle of Changping, Zhao Kuo was talking about war on paper, but the Qin army was cut off from food, grass and reinforcements. The Zhao army was hungry for forty-six days.

In this situation, the Zhao people made a desperate move and formed four of the most elite breakout troops, which were personally led by Zhao Kuo.

But who would have thought that as soon as Zhao Kuo went out, he was hit by crossbow arrows and died on the spot. Few of the troops who broke through survived.

This is the power of Qin Nu.

In addition, there are also records in ancient books.

The Qin army resisted the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu invaded with 200,000 flying cavalry, but Qin general Meng Tian defended the enemy with a large shield on the outside.

Dozens of rows of crossbowmen were lined up inside the shield. Under the Qin crossbows, thousands of arrows were fired. The Huns' 200,000 troops fell to the ground in an instant, and their formation was in chaos.

In the next battlefield, Qin Nu suppressed the Xiongnu's archers and cavalry, giving the infantry a chance to cover up the charge. He killed 100,000 Xiongnu in one battle and forced the Xiongnu to retreat for more than 700 miles. They did not dare to invade for nearly 20 years. Central Plains.

This is also the power of Qin Nu.

certainly…

In the Han Dynasty, crossbows also achieved considerable development.

For example, the flying general Li Guang's Han Dahuang Ginseng Crossbow once killed several people of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King.

Coupled with more than ten different types of powerful crossbows, the Han army's crossbows also made the Hu people fearful.

However, the crossbows of the Han Dynasty tended to be crossbow machines rather than single-person crossbows that were fired with arm or leg strength.

Transportation and mobility are inevitably inadequate.

In terms of comprehensive range, rate of fire, and maneuverability, Qin Nu still maintains an absolute advantage.

However, at the end of the Han Dynasty...the world was in chaos. With the turmoil on the border, many crossbow-making techniques were lost, not to mention the Qin crossbow, including the big yellow crossbow, six-stone crossbow and eight-stone crossbow. Also extremely difficult to find.

Gradually, the power of the crossbow became weaker and weaker, and the range became shorter and shorter. Even the Zhuge Liannu was only 70 meters.

This kind of range can only hit the front row, and cannot threaten the heart of the enemy at all!

Because of this, the crossbow, which had lost its power and range, was gradually eliminated by the times, and few princes continued to equip crossbow corps.

On the contrary, the bow has become the mainstream on the battlefield.

Of course, in the final analysis, this is because the skills have been lost, and because troubled times will not give a prince enough time to study crossbows intensively.

While thinking about it, Guan Lin and the old man arrived at a place on the outskirts of the city. He was so curious...whether the old man was bluffing him.

But I saw that the old man called a strong man, and the strong man was very obedient. After bowing respectfully to him, he followed his instructions, bowed his body with his feet, pulled his arms and waist, and used all his strength to wind the string...

With a whoosh sound, the arrowheads fired by the crossbow seemed to pierce the air, and the bowstring rebounded and rubbed violently with the air, making a sharp whistling sound.

This is just the sound of a crossbow bolt being fired. If ten thousand crossbows were fired in unison...how spectacular would the sound of breaking wind be?

Guan Lin couldn't help but think about it.

It was only at this time that he could understand why the Qin army exhaled the sound of strong wind and strong wind before the battle.

——This is not just for emboldening courage!

The Lixian crossbow arrow shuttled through the air at an extremely fast speed. As far as the eye could see, the crossbow arrow had already landed. Guan Lin could not determine how many steps it took, but roughly speaking, it must have been more than four hundred steps.

At that time, Guan Lin also felt the wind direction here, it was just a slight tailwind...

If the wind were stronger and the wind was favorable, we might really be able to reach the eight hundred steps recorded in Warring States Policy!

For a moment, Guan Lin couldn't help but become fascinated.

The old man seemed to see what Guan Lin was thinking.

He opened his mouth and said: For those who can't reach eight hundred steps, I've tried every direction of the wind. They can't reach five hundred steps, at most four hundred steps. This Warring States Policy doesn't seem to be rigorous.

Seeing this, Guan Lin felt like he had encountered a thigh...

Since this guy can make Qin Nu, then... he can probably successfully make a series of other drawings. Guan Lin suddenly felt that the future of this time travel was bright.

At this moment, he really wanted to become a disciple...

Who would have thought that when he mentioned apprenticeship, the old man kept waving his hands, You can draw the manufacturing diagram of this Qin Nu, but I don't dare to be your master. My surname is Huang, you might as well call me 'Huang...'

This old man wanted Guan Lin to call him Huang Lao...

Unexpectedly, Guan Lin raised his hand and called him directly: Old Huang!

This was Guan Lin's name casually. Who would have thought that this old Huang would keep shouting for half a year.

Later, this old Huang took Guan Lin to his villa, and Guan Lin discovered that in addition to his rich family background, this old Huang really had two things to do.

There are no serious things in the villa, but there are a lot of weird things.

For example, a yellow dog, Guan Lin was deceived into thinking it was a real dog.

When I got closer, I realized that it was made of wood...it was so lifelike that it looked real.

Guan Lin praised a few words, but Lao Huang said that his daughter did it for fun.

There is also a wooden tiger. If it weren't for the wooden dog in front, Guan Lin would really think that Lao Huang dared to keep a tiger as a pet.

The strangest thing is the wooden man. This wooden man can actually wield a knife...

According to what Lao Huang said, if this wooden man is ambushed in the bushes, he can catch him by surprise and frighten the enemy!

And these were all done by his daughter.

At that time, Guan Lin suddenly became very interested in her daughter.

Her daughter is also a great inventor!

For this reason, Guan Lin couldn't help but ask a few more questions...

Lao Huang was also very candid. He said bluntly that after his daughter got married, she followed her husband to Bashu, and Guan Lin suddenly came back to his senses.

——The surname is Huang!

——Daughter! Bashu!

——Wooden dog, wooden tiger, wooden man...

Guan Lin trembled and stood up in a hurry. He asked directly: Is your daughter Huang Yueying? Are you Huang Chengyan?

Apparently, Huang Chengyan was also surprised that this boy could actually tell his name.

During these days, he was dressed in tattered clothes, with unkempt hair and face, walking around the market, and no one had ever recognized him.

However, Huang Chengyan did not hide it and answered frankly.

Yes! I, Huang Chengyan!

Now, Guan Lin understood, and he asked Huang Chengyan, Why are you so interesting, old man? You are already Zhuge Kongming's father-in-law, why are you looking for me?

Huang Chengyan then confessed his heart palpitations, When I was young, I learned all kinds of skills and skills, and when I was middle-aged, I traveled around the mountains and rivers. I didn't realize it before, but when I got older, I suddenly felt lonely... Just such a daughter, but she and her son-in-law went to a foreign country. There are a lot of wood in this villa, and the only living creatures are a few servants and a donkey. Life is boring, boring...

Now, Guan Lin finally knew...

I bet this is the late Han Dynasty version of the empty nester!

Guan Lin then asked, Are you boring? Are you looking for me to have fun? I, Guan Lin, the dignified young master of the Guan family, have become your entertainment!

got used to…

In front of this old man, Guan Lin is no longer used to it.

Nowadays, there is no respect for him because of his status.

In fact, Guan Lin's temperament is not respectful to anyone.

After listening to Guan Lin's words, Huang Chengyan said with emotion: Looking up at Taixu, I suspected it was Yulong Dou. The old man has been learning and walking for half his life. In the end, I found that the shoes you bought are the most suitable for my feet.

hehe…

Guan Lin thought at that time, that's when you realized that you used to feel uncomfortable with old shoes, but now you know...the source of discomfort is your feet!

Of course, he didn't say this.

He just said lightly, If I had known that you were Zhuge Kongming's father-in-law, I wouldn't have bought you shoes! With this money, I can buy some meat to satisfy my craving. Wouldn't it be more beautiful!

Huang Chengyan shook his head and sighed: If you had known it, you wouldn't have told the truth. You still treat me as a crazy old man. You accompany me occasionally. Let me chat with the old man. You can give me some new drawings for me to ponder. I am happy. !”

Huang Chengyan's tone suddenly added a lot of decline and desolation.

Hear this…

Guan Lin suddenly thought of his grandfather and grandpa before traveling through time.

They all live in the countryside, and they have raised their children throughout their lives. But in the end, their children have become successful and have left the countryside, and they can hardly see each other throughout the year...

This is a very strange feeling. It is a feeling that I miss you very much, but I can resolutely let go and let my children fly higher and farther.

Sigh... Guan Lin sighed and looked back at Huang Chengyan. He could understand the loneliness of an empty nester.

Thinking of this, he looked up at Huang Chengyan, saw that he was still lonely, and tugged on his clothes.

He shouted: Old Huang.

What? Huang Chengyan looked at Guan Lin with reluctance, You know my identity, and you won't be with me anymore. Do you want to leave?

No! Guan Lin waved his hand, and then he said with a smile, You said you wanted to have fun, but then again, if I accompany you to have fun, what good will it do?

After saying this, the loneliness in Huang Chengyan's eyes disappeared, and when he looked at Guan Lin, his eyes were filled with light, What benefits do you want?

I see there are quite a lot of cows on your farm, and I like to eat beef, but eating beef is easy to get into trouble. How about... I chat with you, draw pictures for you, and figure out all the wonderful things with you. What do you mean? Can you just let me eat the cows in the villa?

Guan Lin looked at those diligent old scalpers and smacked his mouth, almost drooling. However, he was still very rational: Of course, before eating these cows, you have to find a way to make them die reasonably and legally... Otherwise, I won’t be able to eat well.”

Just...that's it?

Huang Chengyan laughed immediately. What did he think was going on? Isn’t it just a few cows?

For an empty nester;

Or for such an empty-nest old man with a valuable status and an extremely empty spiritual world.

A few cows are nothing. There are plenty of cows in his villa. As for... the reasonable and legal death of these cows, that is not simple... Huang Chengyan has a hundred ways.

As long as he is no longer alone, none of this is a problem.

Therefore, Huang Chengyan readily agreed.

What surprised Guan Lin even more was that Huang Chengyan was really awesome. Not only did he let these cows die unclearly, but the key was that the government accepted all the reasons why these cows died.

What’s ‘put your left foot first’, what’s ‘step your right foot first’, what’s ‘if you dare to eat grass today, you’ll dare to eat people tomorrow’…

All in all, it’s too much to mention.

The most important thing is that no one has ever dared to question it!

Of course, he doesn't have to do these things himself. With his network of connections in Jingzhou, as long as he clicks his finger, there are a lot of people waiting to do things for him.

This also made Guan Lin realize that once a person's reputation reaches a certain level, he just casually writes a sentence - There are two trees in front of my house, one is a jujube tree, and the other is also a jujube tree!

——This kind of sentence can also become the truth!

That’s all…

What's even more awesome is that Huang Chengyan also made an ice mirror, which is a container for holding ice.

It was possible to hide the minced meat of a cow in it and store it for a full fifteen days, making it especially fresh. This also allowed Guan Lin to eat beef for fifteen days every half month.

And this eating lasts for half a year.

Huang Chengyan, on the other hand, has made many new utensils in the past six months thanks to Guan Lin's manufacturing plans.

The Qin Crossbow, the Eight Stone Crossbow, the Rhubarb Power Ten Stone Crossbow, these are all ordinary.

Even the entire villa has taken on a new look because of the Keel Waterwheel, Water Turning Hundreds of Plays and Water Power Blower.

Even, in terms of ingredients...

Such as dumplings, Dongpo pork, ham, tofu puffs...all available!

Guan Lin likes to come here because he can eat more delicious food. The most important thing is that he doesn't have to spend a copper coin, and he can take away a few pieces of beef from the Bingjian before leaving.

For example, the armored crossbow vehicle used in the last martial arts test was also drawn by Guan Lin and made by Huang Chengyan.

What’s more…

Huang Chengyan and Guan Lin have another big plan.

A big plan that requires huge money to put together.

This is also the reason why Guan Lin came to see him this time.

now…

In the courtyard, firewood was placed in the stove, and a large black pot was placed on the firewood. The soup made from chicken racks and mutton bones in the black pot was boiling and bubbling.

Guan Lin and Huang Chengyan were pouring the ingredients they had prepared.

For example, Guan Lin likes to eat older mutton. He often has to rinse it for sixty seconds before taking it out, dipping it in pepper and sesame juice and stuffing it into his mouth. Huang Chengyan is an old man and has bad teeth, so he can only eat mutton. The tender ones... often only last about ten breaths.

In addition, Huang Chengyan doesn't like dipping sauces. Maybe the pepper is too numb and the elderly can't stand it. However, it is vegetarian and he eats it with gusto.

In this way, he eats vegetarian food and Guan Lin eats meat. This complementarity makes the two of them eat well.

Tell me about it...

Huang Chengyan swallowed the cooked mustard greens and slowly opened his mouth, Here, let me hear, how much money did your kid earn? Do you dare to talk so brazenly that you want to realize our plan?

One hundred thousand hu of grain! Is that almost enough? Guan Lin also swallowed the mutton and raised his eyes to look at Huang Chengyan expectantly.

hehe…

But Huang Chengyan sneered. He seemed to be laughing at Guan Lin's stupidity and naivety, Who told you? To make ten thousand Qin crossbows, one hundred thousand dendrobium grains are enough?

One hundred thousand dendrobium is not enough? Guan Lin was surprised...

Indeed, their plan was to make ten thousand Qin crossbows and equip them with the Han army.

With the advantage of shooting range, when Cao Cao's cavalry charged, they were caught by surprise. Tens of thousands of crossbows were fired at once, and the overwhelming crossbow bolts... were enough to kill all the invading enemies.

Of course, this needs to be kept secret. When the number of Qin Nu has not reached a certain scale, not even his father Guan Yu can tell him.

Once it is leaked and the enemy is on guard, it will be almost meaningless.

But, according to Huang Chengyan, one hundred thousand hu of grain is not enough?

Haha... Huang Chengyan was sneering at this time. He raised his head and looked down at Guan Lin mockingly, You kid, I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding about Qin Nu? One hundred thousand dendrobium grains are not enough!
