Chapter 30 The Hole Card of Daomen

"Successfully summoned a six-star historical celebrity—Sun Simiao!"

……

For a moment, Li Si just wanted to slap himself. It's too late. To be honest, an ordinary first-class general will do for him at this time.

Good guy, one is Lu Ban and the other is Medicine King. Does he want two old men to lead his troops to fight?

Seeing the fairy-like old man slowly appearing in front of him, Li Si could only pay respects.

"Your Highness, you don't need to be polite. This old man also knows some Qihuang techniques. I can't help His Highness with anything. If Your Highness allows me, this old man can treat the common people here."

Sun Simiao cupped his fists at Li Si and walked away freely.

Li Si could only smile wryly, and wait to go back to the file again, he can't follow Old Immortal Sun to learn medical skills.

At the moment, he didn't eat breakfast anymore, and was going to the smelting area to check the progress, when he heard a bang in the distance, flying by with a whistling sound, he looked up, and saw a stone bomb just fell in the forest, but It was the catapult that was testing.

Good guy, two more catapults have been added this night.

Hmm, black-toothed brutes with catapults?
Li Si had a glimmer of hope in his heart, he immediately turned around, and ran towards the foot of the mountain, but within a few steps, his heart was shaken, because he saw a crow from more than 100 meters above his head. Flying at a high altitude, and then turning back in the north, this is definitely not an ordinary crow!

"Shoot this crow down!"

Li Si yelled furiously, while Zhao Xiaoer and the other ranger captains had already drawn their bows quickly, but the crow suddenly raised its height, as if it had heard Li Si's words, and flew away quickly, leaving only the strange sound of quacking.

At this moment, Li Si's newly raised confidence collapsed.

Mad, I forgot that Daomen can also use crows to investigate!

Finished!

Li Si took a deep breath and quickened his pace. This gear is useless, but he must master the skills of the magic arm crossbow and catapult.

At this moment, I don't know what happened at the foot of the mountain, but Lu Ban's back can be seen from a distance. Under his command, dozens of craftsmen and hundreds of young and strong are busy in an orderly manner.

Some are cutting wood, some are pushing stones, and some are chiseling stones.

As for the seven catapults, they dropped stone bombs one by one. The power is not small, and the range can reach at least 700 meters.

Every time a stone bullet was thrown, the craftsmen and young adults cheered.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, this catapult is a good thing. With this thing, we will no longer be afraid of monsters." Zhao Xiaoer got out of nowhere. It is unforgettable.

But Li Si didn't want to hit him, because with the charging speed of the monster and the hit rate of the catapult, there was a high probability that it would not work.

"Assemble the battalions. 3000 people from the black-toothed barbarians have come over. In addition, a heavy camp and a garrison camp are required to evacuate the people so that they can flee to the Luming Mountain area as soon as possible."

Li Si gave an order, even if there was a catapult, the chances of winning this battle were not great, because he lacked a general to command the army.

It is even more because, without a general in command, there would be no formation of troops.

"Your Highness is in good spirits today."

The old man Lu Ban has good eyesight, and when he sees Li Si, he walks over with a smile.

"The old man has worked hard." That's all Li Si could say.

"Hehe, I heard that there is a barbarian army going south, will pass by us, right?" The old man looked very relaxed.

"They will definitely pass by, or they are coming towards us, around noon, there are 3000 people."

"Your Highness is not sure about this battle?"

"If there are only these 3000 people, even if I fight to the death, I may not be unable to do it, but old man, have you seen those crows flying in the sky? They are the eyeliner sent by the Taoist sect. This time, I really poked There's a hornet's nest."

When Li Si said this, he looked at the seven catapults and found that they were different from each other, which was very different from the No. [-] catapult made yesterday.

"Old sir, are you making some changes to the catapult?"

"That's right, some of the truths His Highness said yesterday made the old man suddenly understand, so today I specially made three different catapults for testing."

"What was the result?" Li Si was very excited.

"That depends on His Highness's needs." Lu Ban stroked his beard, "There is no good thing in this world that has the best of both worlds. As far as the catapult is concerned, if you want to pursue the greatest power, it must be bloated, the number of launches is slow, and the accuracy is limited; If you want to pursue smaller size and easy installation, you will inevitably lose power."

"Therefore, the old man conceived three kinds of catapults, one of which is large and can be used to attack fortified cities, and can throw 500 catties of stone bullets. But such a catapult requires at least two hundred young and strong men and fifty craftsmen to build it. control the operation."

"The second is medium-sized, which can be used to defend the city. It is condescending and can project stone bullets farther, and can even threaten large catapults."

"The third is small and can be used to carry with the army. The total weight is less than 10 catties. It can be quickly disassembled and assembled. Even if it encounters an enemy army, it can also be put into battle within a cup of tea. It can throw [-] catties of stone bombs. If it is condescending, it can easily project a thousand steps, and even a heavily armored soldier can be severely wounded and killed. In addition, such a small catapult can project faster."

"Unfortunately, our army is running out of time today. If there are three more days, the old man can build fifty small catapults like this for His Highness, and three thousand cavalry. Only by relying on the location and the army formation, I will definitely be able to call them There is no going back!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Ban took out a thin booklet from his arms and quickly handed it to Li Si.

"Your Highness, I am too old to be talented. I would like to advise Your Highness to keep the green hills alive without worrying about firewood. When it is time to break it, it must be broken."

After finishing speaking, the old man left as if nothing had happened.

Li Si cupped his hands to thank him, quickly turned back to his camp, and memorized the drawings of the three kinds of catapults recorded in this book one by one.

He participated in the production of a No. [-] catapult yesterday, and he knows many parts of it, so he only needs to write down some key points of Luban's optimization.

About an hour later, Li Si directly burned the booklet, took out the three strength potions, and poured them down in one go. In a short while, his strength increased by 3 points.

Not much, but his original strength is only 5 points, so this increase is already very good.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, for some reason, many soldiers and civilians are vomiting and diarrhea, and have a fever..."

The eunuch Sun Jin broke in suddenly, shouting in panic, but before he finished speaking, he couldn't help vomiting.

When Li Si walked out of the camp, he saw that there were a lot of people who were vomiting and diarrhea, and only those who were strong and strong could be exempted.

This is definitely not an accident, the way of Taoism really surprised him.

but--

"I hope Sun Simiao can find an antidote for me, time is running out."

Li Si murmured to himself, and turned his head to go to the smelting area. There was no accident here, most of the blacksmith apprentices were recruited, and there were two remaining blacksmiths struggling to forge with their hammers.

Li Si didn't say a word, and after looking at it for a while, he also helped to swing the sledgehammer, which didn't help much, at most he was an apprentice.

He only hoped that he could build a suitable fine steel component to verify the power of the God Arm Crossbow. After all, Lu Ban is still here, and if there is any problem, it can be solved quickly. Otherwise, if this gear is gone, there is really no hope.

In the blink of an eye, more than an hour passed, and when the last two blacksmiths couldn't hold on to the trick, Li Si finally got the three most critical fine steel components. He ignored the hot hands and immediately assembled and tested them.

But before he had time to check the results, the sound of rumbling hooves was already heard from the official road north of Yanhui Mountain, and the black-toothed barbarians came!

"Your Highness, Your Highness! Let your subordinates escort you to retreat!"

Zhao Shan, Zhao Xiaoer, Chu Bai and others led a group of soldiers who were not recruited and rushed over.

"No hurry, where is Mr. Sun?"

At this moment, Li Si was calm.

"It seems, it seems that Mr. Sun went to Yanhui Mountain, and he said that there should be an antidote there."

"Go, go back to the mountain!"

Li Si got on his horse and continued to accelerate. In the sky, more than a dozen crows were circling, squawking strangely, as if they were mocking Li Si's overestimation.

But they dare not come down either.

Li Si galloped all the way along the mountain road, and when his horses were exhausted and out of breath, he finally met Sun Simiao, who was walking swiftly halfway up the mountain. The old man had white hair, a serious face, and a medicine basket on his back.

Before Li Si could say anything, Sun Simiao had already stuffed a few herbs into Li Si's hands.

"Your Highness, let's go!"

Before the words were finished, three crows landed on the mountain road in the distance, turning into three old Taoists in green clothes, but their Taoist robes were embroidered with terrifying patterns of monsters.

Extraordinarily different!

In the next second, the overwhelming ice picks shot over!

Li Si only had time to remember the appearance of the five herbs before he completely lost consciousness and fell into darkness.

Pawn!
