Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Hongxuan looked at the sub-Gu that was taken out by using the silver needle in front of him using the Tianyuan acupuncture secret book.

"The spiritual communication between the child Gu and the mother Gu has such a huge limitation!"

"That's right! The real name of the slavery Gu is the destiny slavery Gu. It is specifically used for enslavement, not for spiritual communication."

Looking at the jellyfish-like slavery Gu in front of him, Hong Xuan called out softly.

"The Qilin Guards kept this translucent object in a water tank!"

Qilin Guard responded, took the translucent sub-Gu taken out by Hongxuan, and kept it in a water tank.

"Qilin Guard Xuan Zhao Bencai and He Zhili came to the attic to see the king!"

The Qilin Guard replied respectfully:

"Yes! I will call the two generals over now!"

A moment later,

Commander-in-Chief Zhao Bencai and He Zhili came into the pavilion together.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan looked at the two of them and said:

"I can conclude that the next battle will be a decisive one. The Northern Shang State Master Yun Yi will definitely fully arm his cavalry with composite crossbows!"

"Such Beishang cavalry is definitely not something that our Dafeng infantry can resist."

After listening to what Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan said.

The two of them showed deep worry.

Zhao Bencai said:

"Your Majesty! I think that although Dafeng Kingdom does not have as many war horses as Beishang Kingdom, nor as good as Beishang Kingdom, Dafeng Kingdom has a much larger population than Beishang Kingdom!"

"I dare to ask Your Majesty to issue a nationwide conscription order, gather a million troops, and destroy the Northern Shang Kingdom in one fell swoop to eliminate future troubles."

He Zhili glanced at Zhao Bencai and nodded slightly in agreement.

"Commander Zhao and I share the same idea."

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan shook his head and said:

"A decisive battle is imminent, but we are not betting on the fate of the country. The people of Dafeng have just received good farmland and favorable policies. It is not easy to call up troops from all over the country at this time to disrupt the grain production of Dafeng."

"Except for the land of Northern Yan, I will not summon you to other places."

After listening to the words of King Zhenbei, he stopped recruiting soldiers from other places except Beiyan. How should he deal with the powerful cavalry of Beishang Kingdom next?

King Hongxuan of Zhenbei knew their concerns and said:

"Don't worry. I have already said in the declaration of war to the Beishang State Master that the composite crossbow is just equipment that I have eliminated."

"Now, one of you two will stay here to guard and cooperate with the Northern Yan grain officer to recruit new soldiers, and the other one will follow me to Mangdang Mountain to create the weapons that will determine the final victory of this battle!"

He Zhili clasped his fists and said:

"Prince of Zhenbei! Wen Jinglan and I will accompany the prince to Mangdang Mountain. Commander Zhao will be in charge of this place!"

Zhao Bencai said cooperatively:

"Your Majesty! I am willing to guard the Northern Border City!"

King Zhenbei nodded slightly:

"Well! Good! You, Zhao Bencai, will guard Beijing City. Before I return, you must remember that no matter what happens, you must never engage in battle with the Northern Shang cavalry."

"Especially be on guard against the Northern Shang cavalry's nighttime sneak attacks with flying claws!"

Zhao Bencai responded respectfully:

"Prince Zhenbei! Don't worry, the general will definitely set up a communications department outside the city, and light up the four corners of the city at night. He will definitely not let the cavalry of Beishang succeed in a sneak attack at night!"

After settling Zhenbei King Hongxuan, he took He Zhili and Wen Jinglan to Mangdang Mountain again.

He knew that he would definitely create a groundbreaking weapon on this trip.

And this weapon will definitely play a decisive role in the decisive battle with the Northern Shang cavalry.

Hong Xuan brought his 30,000 personal guards and passed by the Zhenbei Palace of Beiyan.

But Hongxuan did not go again to meet his three princesses.

For Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan, time can only be described as a race.

Five days later,

It is already the coldest time of winter.

King Hongxuan of Zhenbei came to Mangdang Mountain in the bitter cold wind.

The soldiers on the periphery discovered the arrival of their prince and quickly notified the commanders of the entire Mangdang Mountain.

Hongxuan looked at the entire Mangdang Mountain, and found it was very different from when he first came here.

This area

Build many houses suitable for living.

In addition to the houses scattered around Mangdang Mountain, relatively luxurious mansions were also built, one of which was specially built for Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

In the core area of ​​Mangdang Mountain, iron smelting plants and crossbow and arrow manufacturing plants are neatly arranged.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan entered the mansion.

"Qilin Guard, have all the senior officers come to this king to discuss matters!"

"Also, let Miao Fuzhou, Yang Shou, and Xu Yixuan come to discuss the matter."

Qilin Guard led his men and left.

Soon.

In the meeting room of the mansion, many senior military officers have arrived, including Yang Shou and Xu Yixuan, who were sent by Zhenbei King Hongxuan to specialize in manufacturing weapons.

In the meeting room were Jin Falin and Lin Hu who were promoted in Ezhou City, as well as Li Donglin who had always been here.

Hongxuan glanced at Miao Fuzhou.

Miao Fuzhou tactfully bowed to Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

Hongxuan said,

"This time, the king came here to create a weapon of great power!"

Everyone in the conference room heard it.

Jin Farin asked curiously:

"King Zhenbei! You said you wanted to create a weapon with great power, but the power of the composite military crossbow is already very great!"

"Is there any weapon with longer-range attack power greater than the compound crossbow?"

In the meeting room, everyone was also very curious.

They also did not believe that there was a weapon more powerful than the composite crossbow.

Zhenbei Wang Hongze looked at Jin Falin and said:

"Of course there are weapons more powerful than the composite crossbow. This is beyond doubt! Otherwise, what is the point of my coming here?"

Li Donglin said to Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan:

"King of Zhenbei! Now, there are enough crossbows stored in my Mangdang Mountain's arsenal! There are a total of 800,000 crossbows, and the number of crossbow arrows is countless."

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan waved his hand and interrupted:

"From now on, stop manufacturing composite crossbows and crossbow arrows!"

Jin Falin, Lin Hu, and Li Donglin all knew that Zhenbei King Hongxuan no longer needed them to manufacture composite military crossbows.

Then their mission here would be over.

Jin Farin said:

"King Zhenbei! Are we going to join the battle against the Northern Shang cavalry this time?"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan smiled and shook his head and said:

"Haha! Of course you are not required to participate. You and the troops you lead are my manufacturing engineers. I don't need to let you go to the battlefield."

"Jin Falin, what the soldiers you lead need to do is to make a revolutionary weapon for this king."

A weapon of the times?

Everyone in the conference room was puzzled as to what a cross-era weapon was.

"King Zhenbei! Isn't the composite military crossbow a cross-era weapon?" Jin Falin asked curiously.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan smiled and said:

"The composite crossbow is certainly not a revolutionary weapon! It is at best a cold weapon!"

It was the first time that everyone in the conference hall heard Zhenbei King Hongxuan’s summary of the composite military crossbow as a cold weapon.

"Before I came here, the Beishang State Master fought with the infantry of the Dafeng State in Baidi City, and the Beishang State obtained a large number of composite military crossbows!"

"You all know the manufacturing process of this composite crossbow. It relies on the four axles at both ends of the crossbow to provide double the pulling force."

"The commander of the Northern Shang State has obtained a large number of military crossbows. They will definitely manufacture military crossbows with the same power."
