Chapter 259 Xuanwang was crazy, Tang Yin really couldn't do anything about him, so he had to follow him out.
Xuanwang has been leading Tang Yin to the main courtyard of the county capital, only to see that there are several carriages parked in the courtyard, and the things on the carriages are wrapped in cloth and covered tightly, as if they are afraid of being seen, but even if the package is dense, Tang Yin can see that it is a behemoth.
The corners of his mouth twitched, he looked at Xuan Wang, and asked, "Master Xuan, this is the crossbow machine you developed."
"Yes, my lord" Xuan Wang looked at the carriage, his eyes lit up, and he nodded excitedly.
After waiting for a while, hearing that Tang Yin had no more words, he looked back and saw that Tang Yin had walked back without saying a word.
"Ah, my lord" Xuan Wang hurriedly chased after him, and asked repeatedly: "My lord, why did you go?"
Tang Yin stopped his steps, turned around and pointed to Xuan Wang's so-called crossbow machine, and said: "This is what you have researched, such a big crossbow machine, how do you let our soldiers carry and attack the city, and the two armies face each other, just the handling is a problem, with this kind of thing, the speed of the march will be dragged down." was snatched by him, the excitement on Xuan Wang's face disappeared, his face looked a little ugly, and beads of sweat on his forehead also appeared, and he said urgently: "My lord, my subordinates still have light crossbow machines, please be sure to look at them" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Tang Yin's sleeve tightly, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
Alas, when he met such a person, Tang Yin's temper couldn't be released if he wanted to, he sighed lightly, raised his head and said, "Take me to see" "Okay, my lord, please" Xuan Wang's face was suddenly full of smiles, and he led Tang Yin to the last carriage.
Of the several carriages, only this one was the most normal, at least it still had a canopy.
Xuan Wang lifted the curtain, half of his body stayed outside, half of his body leaned into the car, his hands swiped around, and he didn't know what he was rummaging for.
Tang Yin walked around behind him, glanced into the car, and then turned his head, no more looking, the carriage was in chaos, all kinds of tools, materials, finished products, and semi-finished products were scattered among them, and it was messy and couldn't tell what it was.
After waiting for a while, Xuanwang's head finally retracted from the car, and he also had a light crossbow machine in his hand.
This crossbow machine is small in size and very light to hold in the hand.
Xuan Wang respectfully handed the crossbow machine to Tang Yin, and said, "My lord, this is a newly developed crossbow machine under his subordinates, and he also named it a flying crossbow."
"Oh" Tang Yin took it, checked it in his hand, and felt that the crossbow machine was a little heavier than it looked, he looked left and right, and Xuan Wang explained on the side: "My lord, don't look at the small size of this crossbow machine, but it is made of iron power wood, and it is extremely strong.
Adults can distribute crossbows to cavalry, which is also tailored for cavalry by subordinates.
My lord, please see, there are grooves on the body of the crossbow machine, which can fix the crossbow arrows, even if the soldiers are bumpy on the horse, there is no need to worry that the crossbow arrows will fall off, in addition, due to the toughness of the material, the power of the crossbow is also extremely strong, and at close range, it can penetrate the steel armor, which can completely cause fatal damage to the Ning army."
Tang Yin watched while Xuan Wang explained on the side, and it was not until this time that he seemed to be a little normal, and he didn't talk crazy.
After listening to Xuan Wang's narration, Tang Yin picked up a crossbow arrow and put it in the groove of the crossbow machine, and then deliberately turned the crossbow machine over, face down, back side up, and then looked at the crossbow arrow, it really seemed to be embedded on it, the lines did not move, and there was no sign of falling off.
Tang Yin was surprised, pulled the crossbow string apart, hung the tail of the arrow, then raised his head, looked around the left and right, and saw a big tree not far away, he raised his arm, aimed at the tree, and pulled the crossbow machine.
I heard a snap, the crossbow string flicked, and the crossbow arrow shot out quickly, because of the close distance, the crossbow arrow did not fly much in the air, and it was nailed to the tree in an instant.
Ah, this crossbow can really be used Tang Yin first looked at Xuan Wang in surprise, and then lowered his head to carefully examine the flying crossbow in his hand, this crossbow machine is really cleverly conceived, eclectic, the more he looks at it, the more he likes it, after a while, he said to the guards beside him: "Take the crossbow arrows back" "Yes, my lord" one of the guards agreed, strode to the tree, grabbed the tail of the crossbow arrow, tried to pull it out, and used several forces, the crossbow arrow was still nailed to the tree, without any sign of loosening, the guard was secretly surprised, lowered his head, and looked carefully, only to see that a quarter of the crossbow arrow did not enter the tree.
"Ah" The guard was surprised, and hurriedly turned back to Tang Yin and said, "My lord, this crossbow arrow is too deep to pull it out."
"Oh" When Tang Yin heard this, he immediately stepped forward and took a closer look, but isn't it, the crossbow arrow is deeply inserted into the tree, and it is not something that ordinary people can pull out at all.
At this time, Tang Yin couldn't help but be impressed by Xuan Wang, if such a sharp crossbow was fully applied to the cavalry, it would undoubtedly increase the combat effectiveness of the cavalry by a notch.
He played with the crossbow in his hand back and forth, and praised: "Good crossbow" Hearing his appreciation, Xuan Wang was overjoyed, ran back to the car like a treasure, took out a crossbow machine from it, and then stumbled back to Tang Yin, handed it forward, and said with a smile: "My lord, this is a subordinate improved crossbow, named the array crossbow, the crossbow machine contains five crossbow arrows, which can be fired continuously, if you use enough soldiers, you can form a continuous arrow array, whether it is siege or close combat, it has the effect of suppressing the enemy."
Now Tang Yin's confidence in Xuanwang has increased greatly, after he took over the crossbow machine, he felt that the crossbow machine in his hand was heavy, this crossbow machine was much heavier than the flying crossbow just now, and the materials on the crossbow were mostly made of steel.
This time, he didn't use it himself, but gave it to the guard officer next to him and asked him to try it out.
The guard officer held the crossbow machine in both hands, walked to a distance of ten meters from the old tree, and then pulled the trigger on the crossbow machine.
I only heard a snap, a crossbow arrow was as fast as lightning, and flew out, and then, there was a squeaky sound in the crossbow machine, and a new crossbow arrow came out of the crossbow box, the guard was stunned at first, and then tentatively pulled the crossbow string back again, and at the same time as pulling the trigger, the second crossbow arrow flew out with a snap, and shot two arrows, and the guard officer had experience, and immediately pulled the crossbow string again, and shot the remaining three crossbow arrows together.
Tang Yin nodded secretly while watching from the side, the crossbow machine is simple to use, easy to use, even people who have never used or even seen this thing can quickly apply it freely, this is a hundred times stronger than a bow and arrow, but because the crossbow string is much shorter than the bowstring, it is also a fact that the power is not as good as the bow and arrow, but as long as it is used properly, it will still produce great power on the battlefield.
This time, he didn't show his praise on his face again, and asked casually, "Do you have any other types of crossbow machines?"
"Also, and" Xuan Wang trotted two steps forward, came to the large shelf tightly wrapped in cloth, and said, "My lord, this is a broken crossbow developed by his subordinates."
"Untie the cloth and try how powerful it is" With such a huge crossbow machine, Tang Yin also wanted to see what was unusual about it.
Xuan Wang shook his head again and again when he heard this, and said, "My lord, I can't try."
"Why aren't you finished yet?"
"That's not it, and the power of the broken army crossbow is too great, I'm afraid it will destroy the adult's house."
Tang Yin was stunned at first, and then couldn't help laughing on his back, this Xuanwang's tone is big enough, how powerful can this crossbow machine be, it can actually destroy his own house, it's a joke, but Xuanwang insisted again and again, Tang Yin was no longer embarrassed for him, and decided to go to an open place in the suburbs to try the crossbow.
Originally, he planned to set off for Du Ji today, but the series of large and small crossbow machines brought by Xuan Wang aroused Tang Yin's interest, and if these crossbow machines were applied to actual combat, they could indeed play a role, at this time, Tang Yin had the intention to manufacture crossbow machines on a large scale and distribute them to the whole army.
Tang Yin's itinerary that has been set can be disrupted, this is not a common thing, it is not difficult to see how much he attaches importance to the crossbow machine made by Xuanwang, hearing this news, Qiu Zhen, Liang Qi, Shangguan Yuanrang and other strategists and generals also came, people are very curious, as if to see what the crossbow machine made by Xuanwang looks like, and what is the unusual power.
Even Shauna came to watch.
In the main courtyard of the county capital, people pass each other with crossbows such as flying crossbows and array crossbows, and from time to time there are generals who pick up crossbows and go to test fire twice, feeling that the crossbow machines made by Xuanwang are indeed unique.
After Tang Yin had breakfast, he took Xuanwang's two huge and mysterious crossbow machines to the suburbs with everyone to try how powerful these two crossbow machines were.
Before leaving, Xuan Wang also specially asked Tang Yin to prepare a few more healthy horses, which would be used later, Tang Yin didn't know what he was going to do, but he didn't ask much, and ordered his guards to arrange it.
On the way to the suburbs, everyone was full of curiosity and excitement, talking and laughing, and soon left the north city and walked to a mountain forest north of Huaiyang. didn't want to leak the news of the crossbow machine, Tang Yin first asked people to surround the mountains and forests, and then arranged for soldiers to carefully inspect in the mountains and forests, and after confirming that there was no one inside, this was the only way to ask Xuan Wang to untie the cloth that wrapped the two crossbow machines, and it was only at this time that people could see its true face of Lushan.

The size of these two crossbow machines is very large, more than half a person tall, but it is two or three meters long, especially one of them, the crossbow string is the thickness of a human finger, Liang Qi walked closer curiously, and pulled the crossbow string hard, not to mention pulling the crossbow string, even if it was a minute to pull it was very difficult.
How can this kind of crossbow be used, and even the crossbow string can't be opened, let alone shoot the crossbow arrow Liang Qi looked at Xuanwang in puzzlement, then at Tang Yin, and shook his head with a wry smile.
Xuan Wang didn't care about other people's reactions, he introduced himself, he first pointed to the slightly smaller crossbow machine, and said: "This crossbow machine is called the Broken Army Crossbow, which can shoot single or three arrows at the same time, and the one called the Broken City Crossbow can only shoot one arrow at a time for the time being, and cannot shoot more, I will improve it in the future":
