Chapter 350
"But...if the enemy holds a blunt weapon, will it cause damage to the plate armor?" Xu Shu asked his question a little timidly.
With a suggestion attitude, he felt that he had to raise this potential weakness.
The commanders in the hall looked at each other and then laughed up to the sky.
"It is indeed so." Taishi Ci said with a smile.
"But as long as the enemy has enough courage to run to the front of Tang Hai's soldiers and attack before the soldiers shoot with the crossbows in their hands."
"A range of three or two hundred steps is hell on earth."
"I am afraid that after a round of volleys, the enemy on the opposite side will flee in panic."
The other commanders nodded repeatedly.
Among the commanders, Chen Qun and Zhong Yao whispered to each other.
It is hard to know who can stop such a Tang Hai.
In the plate armor and the crossbow, they finally realized what Liu Yu said about dimensionality reduction.
Such weapons and armor, combined with Tang Hai's exaggerated production capacity.
Looking around the world, who can stop them?
The two of them couldn't wait to run out and take over the place in Indochina that had three harvests a year.
As for their family.
Sometimes I think that the big family is not as good as the small family.
The filth and fighting among them are well known to the children who grew up in aristocratic families.
If you are not careful, you may lose your life.
Fighting for inheritance is not a joke.
...
The news of all crossbows spread throughout Tanghai.
The first place to react enthusiastically was Tanghai City.
The men were so excited after hearing it.
Holding the Shenbi crossbow and shooting at the enemy from two hundred steps away, it feels magnificent.
Each household uses wood to build a crossbow that is almost the same size as the real thing.
Tie a brick in front with a rope to exercise the stability when holding the crossbow.
Following Liu Yu's order, the aiming frames made by Tanghai Steel Plant were distributed to households.
Let the people of Tanghai learn the three-point-one-line aiming method and train more scientifically.
With the actual shooting at the shooting range outside the city, the shooting skills of all the men in Tanghai improved rapidly.
Liu Yu also ordered the officials to organize an experience sharing conference.
Those with better shooting skills share their learning and improvement experiences with everyone.
Those with good shooting skills gain the envy and admiration of others.
Others gain various experiences.
For a time, everyone has a bright future.
The people of Tanghai City are waiting for Liu Yu to expand the army.
They all hope to join the archers.
Wearing plate armor and carrying a crossbow on their shoulders, what a majestic posture it is to stand there.
Even if you stand in front of the old emperor, you can scare the other party.
...
In Yuyang City, Guan Yu led a group of people to count and gather various supplies in the city.
In his order, all soldiers picked up valuable materials and packed them in batches.
In addition, Tang Hai's various policies were publicized in the city and the surrounding areas to attract ordinary people to follow Tang Hai.
Under the persuasiveness of various Tang Hai materials, the people of Yuyang could not resist at all.
Even the people from the surrounding counties and prefectures secretly ran over with their families at night after hearing the news.
Guan Yu had the food in the official warehouse in the city and was not afraid of the surge in the number of people.
Those who came were given rations.
This made Tang Hai establish a tall image among the people of Yuyang.
Guan Yu did not let the people of the city who came to seek refuge idle.
Cut wood to build wooden carts, load various materials and prepare to return to the city.
After completing all the tasks quickly, he gave the order to set off.
The soldiers of Tang Hai led all the people of Yuyang and the people who came to seek refuge from the surrounding counties and prefectures to Tang Hai.
The mighty team left a long trail in the wilderness.
...
Jicheng.
The lobby of the official temple.
"Yuyang Rebellion?"
Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, was very surprised when he received the news.
He had too many things to deal with since he took office.
But he still encountered such a rebellion.
It made him feel overwhelmed.
"The Cavalry Commander is not in the city yet, what should I do?" Liu Yu paced back and forth in the lobby, looking anxious.
"Report! Governor, a letter from Yuyang!" A man hurried into the lobby and handed over a document.
"Tang Haiguan Yunchang? From Yuyang City?" Liu Yu took the letter, and the handwriting on the cover made him frown.
He quickly opened it and read it at a glance, and Liu Yu's frown gradually relaxed.
Anxiety disappeared and was replaced by a smile.
"Great!"
The officials in the lobby were puzzled.
Yuyang rebelled, so what?
"Tang Hai's men have put down the rebellion in Yuyang!" Liu Yu waved the letter in his hand and excitedly said to the officials in the hall.
"As expected of Tang Hai, the military preparations are really strong."
"The rebellion in Yuyang City was put down by Tang Hai only a few days ago.""It's really amazing."
The officials in the hall began to discuss in a low voice.
"Come here!" Liu Yu, who had returned to his seat, shouted.
"Yan Rou will lead the troops to Yuyang City with Wei You to make an exchange with the officials of Tanghai."
"In addition, we must emphasize thanking Tanghai for this attack."
"Yes!" The two officials, one military and one civil, responded loudly and set out immediately according to Liu Yu's order without delaying for a moment.
...
In Yuyang City, Yan Rou and Wei You stood in front of the city gate.
"Empty... empty city?" Wei You rubbed his eyes hard.
Until now, he couldn't believe the news that the soldiers had found out after a long circle in the city.
Yuyang, which was originally a big city in Youzhou, has now become an empty abandoned city.
Not even a single person can be seen.
What are they here to exchange!
"This... could it be that the people of Tanghai took all the people here away?" Yan Rou thought of a possibility.
"It shouldn't be like this."
"But, apart from this guess, I can't think of any other situation."
The two looked at each other and were at a loss.
After discussing it, they decided to send someone back to Jicheng immediately to report the situation in Yuyang.
As for how the governor of the state would deal with it, it was not something that the two officials could decide.
...
In Jicheng, after Liu Yu received the news, he froze in the main seat of the official temple hall and couldn't speak for a long time.
The officials in the hall were talking about it.
"Tang Hai is too much!" The military general Xian Yuyin jumped out and shouted angrily.
"This is clearly using the matter of suppressing the rebellion to rob the people."
"You simply don't take the governor of the state seriously!"
"I beg you to give me 5,000 cavalry, and I will take them to Tanghai to ask for justice."
"I will definitely let them return all the people in Yuyang."
"They must also make compensation!"
The civil and military officials in the hall responded one after another.
Who is Liu Yu?
But they are definitely royal family.
They can reach the ears of the emperor.
How could they bear such anger?
Liu Yu was also angry, but his thoughts were not as simple as those civil and military officials.
Liu Yu was able to quickly wipe out the Yellow Turbans, something that several famous generals in the court failed to do.
Tang Hai’s military equipment was definitely not ordinary.
It’s okay to say harsh words, but forget about real swords and guns.
What’s more, Liu Yu, who was considering the overall situation, needed Tang Hai’s cooperation if he wanted to appease Wuhuan.
“Come here!” Liu Yu shouted, “Write a memorial!”
