Chapter 80: Three-bow crossbow

Chapter 80

After listening to Yuan Dan, Yuan Li and Chu Hechao did not return to their rooms. They turned around with their personal soldiers and followed Yuan Dan to the Artifacts Department.

The Artifacts Department was built in a remote and quiet environment. It was both hidden and safe, allowing the people in the Artifacts Department to work quietly. When Yuan Li arrived, he saw Cui Yan with disheveled hair and a sloppy appearance, writing something at his desk. There were papers and bamboo slips spread all over the floor beside him, and some craftsmen were busy walking around, making things, and sawdust piled up on the floor.

Yuan Li found a lot of people for the Artifacts Department, but most of them were working craftsmen. Only Yuan Dan and Cui Yan were educated and could read. But the creative ability of craftsmen was not lower than that of intellectuals. They had rich experience and could often bring amazing ideas to Yuan Dan and Cui Yan.

Yuan Dan carefully avoided the things on the ground and strode forward. He gently pushed Cui Yan and said with joy: "Cui Yan, Le Jun is here!"

Cui Yan raised his head in a daze, and two traces of green were eye-catching under his eyes. This famous scholar who was so leisurely when he lived in seclusion at the foot of Mangshan Mountain now seemed to have been drained of his energy and spirit, and was no longer as leisurely and comfortable as before.

After seeing Yuanli and the general coming, Cui Yan was still a little dazed, "Why are the two adults here?"

Yuan Dan was so anxious that he patted him again, "Le Jun and the general came to see the crossbow!"

Cui Yan felt pain, and then he suddenly realized it. He stood up with energy and said, "Two adults, please follow me."

Yuanli and Chu Hechao looked at each other and followed him into the courtyard.

There were already two crossbows in the courtyard.

One was a huge bed crossbow, and the other was a small crossbow as long as an arm.

Chu Hechao saw the novelty of this bed crossbow at a glance.

There was a wooden frame under the bed crossbow as a support, and three bows and arrows were combined on the crossbow. This multi-bow bed crossbow was completely different from the giant crossbow in the impression.

Chu Hechao's eyes flashed, and he found it interesting. He strode forward to take a look. After seeing the long and deep arrow path on the bed crossbow that seemed to be able to hold a spear, he looked up at Cui Yan with a burning gaze: "Is this the bed crossbow you modified?"

Cui Yan smiled embarrassedly, "It was also after the governor told me that mathematics could be applied to weapons that I became confused and discussed it with the governor. The governor told me that the only long-range weapons on the battlefield were bed crossbows and catapults, but now these two weapons have their own shortcomings. He I think these two weapons can be improved accurately through mathematics. For example, the bed crossbow can use the combined force of several bows to shoot arrows and increase its power... After the governor told me, I had the idea of ​​improving the bed crossbow and revising the crossbow mechanism to make it more powerful and have a longer range. "

Chu Hechao raised his eyebrows, looked back at Yuanli with some joking, and raised the corners of his mouth, "Sister-in-law is also involved in this aspect."

After confirming the relationship, Yuanli felt very subtle when he heard him call her sister-in-law again, and a sense of guilt for cheating on her emerged in his heart. He ignored this feeling, smiled calmly, and said modestly: "This is just what I felt. I never thought that Mr. Cui could really make it, and it was so impressive."
