Hearing this, Chu Xiang raised the curtain subconsciously to look, and happened to bump into a pair of fiery eyes, that line of sight was completely different from that of Lan Jue. When Lan Jue looked at him, the deep emotion in his eyes was like a tunnel of time and space. Coming over, like bringing space-time pressure, can teach people to sink in, and the whole body loses the strength to resist.

But this boy's eyes were fiery and shy. After meeting Chu Xiang's eyes unexpectedly, he looked like a frightened pony.

"That child." Chu Xiang understood, and laughed in a low voice, "In a few years, when that child grows up, this problem will no longer be a problem."

Under the support of Chu Xiang's team, the morale of Lu Yuan's troops was high. They thought that Lu Yuan was just comforting them. In fact, Lu Yuan himself did not expect that Chu Xiang would really come with soldiers and horses to help them. out of trouble.

Seeing that Chen Guowei's tiger army could not take advantage, they retreated quickly, and the Tang army was able to set up camp and rest. At this time, almost everyone was very excited, and couldn't help but lower their voices to discuss with each other the wonderful story of Master Guoshi's breaking Chen Guoqi's armor How did he do it? Fortunately, just after the battle was over, the officers turned a blind eye to the chatting in the queue of their subordinates, allowing this high emotion of joy to ignite the entire queue.

In ancient times, the speed of marching and camping was quite fast, and Chu Xiang was completely unexpected when he first saw it.Moreover, recently the artificers of the Academy of Sciences have improved a portable marching tent. When you poke the ground and press a button, the spring will open by itself. Speaking of which, the electrical age may not be too far away.

With the acquiescence of the fleet, Chu Xiang did some cheating. He quietly slipped some design drawings about the magnetic induction device to Zhu Jiu, and asked him to secretly send him to the Academy of Sciences, and put in the artificer, now called an engineer. Zhu Jiu is very good at this kind of task in the material pile of these people. The blueprints mixed in are full of calculation drafts, traces of use, and messy handwriting. The engineers sorted out the materials and found this piece of paper while filing.

Then... They stopped busy filing and tidying up, and all huddled together and started researching.

The first steam car was used in war, and its mission was to transport artillery to the battlefield. Coincidentally, when the first car was produced, the local engineer said that he wanted to give this object a name. Lan Jue saw the iron car on the tail. The pipe that sprayed a lot of white smoke even named it "car" without any prompting.

But that's not good enough.

The engineers were not satisfied with the power of the car. Although it could work without sleep, it required two drivers to take turns, and compared with the speed of a horse-drawn carriage, the engineers believed that this kind of mechanical power could do better.Chu Xiang listened silently, nodded secretly, but no longer gave any hints.

Improving power is not achieved overnight, but the war is indeed imminent, so, logically, some engineers asked: Since we can't change the pulling tools, can we improve the things being transported?

For example, make the cannon smaller and thinner?

"But the smaller the artillery, the less lethal it is!"

"No, no, it's small and low cost, and one is not powerful enough. What if we make a hundred of them at once?"

"Yeah, can we try to shrink it a bit and let each soldier carry one?"

——In this way, the blueprint of the gun was hung on the wall of the laboratory of the Academy of Sciences.

The first batch of experimental products arrived with Chu Xiang. Lu Yuan stood anxiously in the tent that had just been set up, watching Chu Xiang play with a strange object.

"My lord, this is..."

"This thing, it's called a fire stick." Chu Xiang pinched her nose and said—yes, it's not called a gun, it's called a fire stick. After hearing the name chosen by the engineers, Chu Xiang almost fainted on the spot, fire stick, plus How about a word called fire stick?

However, the names of the engineers are quite reasonable. Compared with the weapons of the interstellar era, this relatively simple weapon has thick wrists, long forearms, no reasonable butts and ammunition clips, and the bullet silencer is stuffed in the buttocks of the stick. The position, the soldier needs to hold the stick in his hand, it really looks like holding a stick.

Chu Xiang walked out of the tent and took aim at random. This thing is not very powerful, but the recoil is almost non-existent due to the shape problem. Chu Xiang felt like shooting balloons with a toy gun in the playground. He held up this "fire stick", Looking around, he aimed at the magpie that had been flying overhead, and with a muffled bang, the bird fell to the ground.

"Sir, you are amazing!" Lu Yuan shouted joyfully, his voice was a bit loud, which attracted many soldiers' attention quietly.

After Chu Xiang briefly talked about how to use it, Lu Yuan was eager to try it, but before that, Chu Xiang still urged: "The most important thing when using this weapon is safety, and the second is to hit accurately. The second half of this stick is filled It is full of gunpowder, remember not to touch the fire, and when the temperature is too high, it cannot be used, and you must always pay attention not to point your mouth at your own people, if it goes off, it will be a very serious accident.”

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and found that Lu Yuan was staring at him without blinking. Seeing him looking over, he let out a cry as if he had just woken up from a dream, blushed suddenly, and stammered, "Oh, yes. , sir is right..."

"Are you listening?" Chu Xiang asked helplessly.

"I……"

Seeing his embarrassment, Chu Xiang laughed and shook her head: "It's okay, go back and rest today."

"Sir, please forgive Lu Yuan's rudeness!" Unexpectedly, he became anxious and hurriedly knelt down on one knee. Chu Xiang couldn't see others kneeling back and forth, so she grabbed his wrist—he forgot again He was no longer a warrior, not to mention Lu Yuan was not pulled up, and he was almost brought to the ground.

"gentlemen!"

Lu Yuan subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it, but when his hand touched Chu Xiang's chest, he shrank suddenly. If it wasn't for Chu Xiang's poor physical fitness but still conscious of reaction, he might have thrown it to the ground.

"I I I I..."

The boy who was sixteen or seventeen was never in such an embarrassment on the battlefield, and he was about to cry right now.

"I don't know how to bite, what are you afraid of?" Chu Xiang stood up straight, couldn't help smiling and punched Lu Yuan. It was obviously light, but when he hit it, Lu Yuan took a big step back.

"I--"

However, at this moment, a sound of wind passed by, the sound of the wind was too fast, not only Chu Xiang had no time to react, but Lu Yuan had no time to move, Zhu Jiu who was standing not far away was the first to react, he rushed silently It went out, but the wind sound was not a common weapon, but several arrows with strange shapes!

The arrow was shot from the nearby forest area, Zhu Jiu drew the saber with both hands, clanging several arrows, and turned around to find that there were still two fish that slipped through the net.

"Mr. Chu flash—" Zhu Jiu shouted halfway, and was horrified to find that the two small arrows with strange shapes exploded in the air, turning into a loop-like device. Tight, one strangled Chu Xiang's waist, and the other firmly wrapped around his throat.

"Uh……"

"captain!"

"gentlemen--!!!"

The rope was tightened by someone deep in the woods, with great force, and Chu Xiang was instantly pulled into the air. Although Zhu Jiu was close, he didn't dare to stretch out his hand to pull it—after all, the noose was around Chu Xiang's neck. In fact, if this pull is inappropriate, it will change from saving people to killing people!

Lu Yuan cut the rope at the first time, but he couldn't pass the enemy in the woodland. He roared, and the whole camp immediately took up weapons.

However, a gray-green shadow quickly jumped out, rushed up to meet Chu Xiang, grabbed the rope around his neck, and pressed a sharp knife against his neck——

"Don't move!"

A strange and hoarse voice sounded, Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, raised a hand, and signaled Tang Jun behind him to stay where he was.

He gritted his teeth and read their names word by word——

"Ghosts, shadows, and soldiers!"

When they confronted Chen Guowei's tiger army's mighty Qimen dunjia technique, the Ghost Shadow Army, who used to only harass in the dark, sneaked into the Tang camp.

Chu Xiang couldn't stand upright, his eyes were pitch black, because he was pulled roughly in an instant, and his breathing was not smooth, he almost fell on the person behind him. Fortunately, the person wanted to hold him hostage, not kill him, So he helped him a bit, but the sharp knife was still pressed against his throat in a threatening cold, with the blade pointing upwards, forcing him to look up.

The man growled: "Tell them all to retreat! Put down your weapons, or you will never survive!"

Chu Xiang moved his lips, the man pulled the rope hard and shouted, "Say it!"

"Uh..." Chu Xiang groaned, unable to hold on any longer, she passed out.

"Let go of my husband!" Zhu Jiu yelled, "What is your purpose? Just tell me, my husband can't stand your troubles. If Mr. makes mistakes, you will face consequences that you can't bear!"

The gray-green short figure froze for a moment, then sneered.

"I can afford any consequences."

"you--"

His dagger dangled around Chu Xiang's neck, Zhu Jiu froze in place and did not dare to move again, so the gray-green man continued: "My purpose is very simple, use the batch of weapons you just had for this people."

Zhu Jiu and Lu Yuan quickly exchanged glances, they gritted their teeth at the same time, and then Lu Yuan said, "Why should we trust you and let you dictate?"

"Tch..." the grey-green Ghost Shadow Army sneered, "There is no need to waste time. My request is fair and reasonable. I only want that batch of weapons, and I didn't ask you to provide design drawings, nor did I ask for other things such as artillery. You don't want it." Consider going behind my back to sneak attack, believe me, your attack speed is not as fast as mine.

Zhu Jiu clenched his fists, and his nails even pierced the flesh, but Lu Yuan was more excited and angry than him, holding the knife, wishing to rush up immediately, but... the enemy's knife was pressing on Mr. Chu's fair neck, Lu Yuan Staring at his hand, he almost wanted to beg him to raise it up a little bit. He was afraid that Mr. Chu would break a little bit of skin, so he couldn't rush forward rashly.

Chu Xiang brought more than 100 experimental "fire sticks", each of which is not as powerful as a cannon, but so many together... Moreover, Lu Yuan's face is gloomy—the enemy, do you really keep your word?
