Chapter 103: The Bow and Crossbow Division

When the curtain falls, some people are happy and some are worried.

The most defeated was naturally Emperor Chen, who held nearly 1,000 gold coins in his hand, and did not say anything, but instead provoked a fishy body, becoming the biggest laughing stock of this auction, and his prestige was discredited.

The most disappointed is Chun Shenjun, who came confidently, thinking that he was in control, but he thought that he would bite the gold halfway, and finally the bamboo basket was empty, and he returned in defeat.

The luckiest one is the phoenix, who is about to lose to Emperor Chen, and at the critical moment, Ouyang Shuo helped him and won the "Iron Floating Tu Tool Forging Technical Manual" in one fell swoop.

The wisest is Bai Hua, who consciously avoids popular lots and takes the wood spirit bead at the lowest cost.

The most eye-catching, of course, is Ouyang Shuo. One person auctions five out of ten lots, and he owns half of them. Moreover, there are only three sets of precious technical manuals for the manufacture of weapons and equipment, and they have become the biggest winners.

As the auction ended, the gossip that happened at the auction spread like a hurricane through the mouths of the lords who participated in the auction. How can it be said that Wuyi, with its strong financial strength, has defended its hegemony in China. As for Emperor Chen's provocation to Wu Yi some time ago, it undoubtedly became a joke.

All of a sudden, the wind of public opinion suddenly reversed. This is Ouyang Shuo's first public appearance, in addition to the financial strength he has shown. During the intermission, his intimate conversations with White Birch, Dragon Finder and Siege Lion also attracted attention.

And the after-effects don't stop there. After the auction, Phoenix Prisoner publicly announced his withdrawal from the Handan League. The entanglement between the auction god dust and the phoenix prisoner has already evolved into countless versions. Most lord players don't think so, thinking that Emperor Chen also takes his alliance leader too seriously. Therefore, public opinion overwhelmingly expressed support for the withdrawal of the phoenix. For a time, the Handan League was crumbling. Players have speculated how long the Handan League can last.

lived up to everyone's expectations, and the wolf warrior gave the Handan League the most fatal blow.

Immediately after the phoenix, the wolf warrior announced his withdrawal from the Handan Alliance, and won over several big lords in the Jianye region to form the Iron Blood Alliance. The once glorious six tyrants of Handan, after the split of Chun Shenjun, suffered heavy losses again, leaving only the emperor dust and the killing army who had different dreams in the same bed, which was equivalent to existing in name only.

Just when everyone thought that the Handan League was about to be dissolved, Emperor Chen unexpectedly announced that the same Kyoto region would lead his stubborn stone town to join the Handan League. In the previous territorial defense war, it ranked tenth in China, and its strength was still above Bai Hua, which should not be underestimated.

With the addition of the Pillar, the Handan League was continued. It's just that the two pillars of Phoenix Prisoner and Wolf Warrior have been lost one after another, and their strength is not as good as before, and they can't even compare to the Spring and Autumn Alliance.

Ouyang Shuo was not idle, and immediately after the auction, the siege lion and the dragon search point were included in the alliance. At Bai Hua's suggestion, the alliance was officially named the Shanhai Alliance, with Ouyang Shuo as the leader. The members of the Shanhai Alliance include Ouyang Shuo's Shanhai Town, Baihua's Lingxi Town, Mulan Yue's Mulan Town, Dragon Hunting Town, and Black Lion Town, Siege Lion.

Because Mulan Yue's territory had just been upgraded to a first-class township, the funds in her hand were not even two hundred gold coins, so she missed this auction. After learning the news of the auction, he also sent Ouyang Shuo a flying pigeon biography to congratulate him.

After the establishment of the Shanhai Alliance, Ouyang Shuo made a promise to the members that Shanhai Town would give priority to selling them weapons and equipment, including Tang swords, infantry armor, and various bows and crossbows. As for the Mingguang Armor, it is no longer on the list. The production process of a Mingguang armor is complicated, and Shanhai Town is enough to meet its own needs, and it is difficult to sell it to the outside world. Second, Ouyang Shuo regards the future Mingguang Armored Heavy Cavalry Force as the future trump card of Shanhai Town, this most important hole card, and he easily does not want to share it with others, even if it is his own ally.

In order to form a deterrent, Ouyang Shuo did not hide the news of the alliance this time. The Shanhai Alliance officially surfaced, immediately surpassing the Handan League, the Spring and Autumn League, and the Iron and Blood Alliance, becoming the largest alliance in China. With the existence of the Shanhai Alliance, it would not be so easy for Emperor Chen to move the siege lion again.

For a time, the situation in China was changing, and the big drama was scene after scene, which was dazzling.

……

April 1, 2 p.m.

"System Announcement: The official currency exchange platform is officially opened, please check it for yourself!"

Through the currency exchange platform, players can list their game currency on the platform at any time to sell. As long as the player binds the bank card, the credit obtained from the sale of game currency will be automatically transferred to the player's bank card after deducting the 2% handling fee, which is very convenient and fast.

With this exchange platform, it will be easier for Emperor Dust and the Ilk to acquire gold coins. Fortunately, Ouyang Shuo had expected it and made a countermeasure in advance.

"System announcement: In order to facilitate transactions between players, the instant auction platform has been officially opened. Players can enter the player-exclusive auction platform through the auction hall of the royal city or the intermediate market of the territory, and the system charges 15% transaction tax to the seller, please check it for yourself! ”

The launch of the instant auction platform will greatly facilitate the trading between adventure players and lord players, as well as between lord players. Adventure players can sell their territory-specific items, such as special items such as territory-specific scrolls, to the instant auction platform to lord players. Correspondingly, lord players can also take advantage of their own advantages and sell weapons made from weapon workshops to adventure players through the instant auction platform to obtain construction funds.

Lords can communicate with each other through the instant auction platform. China is a vast region with a variety of terrain, and the distribution of resources in the player's territory is also very different. Some territories are rich in iron ore but are in dire need of timber, while others are the opposite, rich in timber but in dire need of iron ore. The instant auction platform provides such an opportunity to communicate with each other. More critically, the transaction tax of the instant auction platform is five percentage points lower than that of the market material trading platform.

After the auction, Ouyang Shuo took stock of the funds he had on hand. The entire auction, including the 500 gold coins lent to the Phoenix Prisoner, cost a total of 6,100 gold coins, and the remaining 1,470 gold coins. Of the five lots auctioned at the auction, the "Tang Knife Forging Technical Manual" was handed over to the weapon workshop, the stand-in doll was placed in the storage bag and took effect automatically, the Spring Breeze and Rain Fu was handed over to Yushui Town, and the "Song Dynasty Buren Armor Forging Technical Manual" was handed over to the Jiafang Division.

The most troublesome thing is the last lot, the Song Dynasty Bow and Crossbow Manufacturing Technical Manual, which involves carpenters, blacksmiths, leathermen, bow makers and other skilled personnel. Therefore, it is necessary to set up a special department to supervise the manufacturing in a unified manner, just like Mingguang armor.

To this end, Ouyang Shuo summoned the heads of various departments of the Military Affairs Administration to the conference hall to discuss the matter.

Ouyang Shuo looked around and said, "In this auction, we have gained a lot, obtaining the weapons, infantry armor, and bow and crossbow manufacturing technical manuals that are urgently needed in the territory. How to turn these technical manuals into tangible advantages and form a complete military industry is the most important task facing the Military Affairs Administration. For this reason, I decided to set up a bow and crossbow division under the Military Affairs Bureau, which is responsible for supervising the manufacture of bows and crossbows. As the three pillars of the territory's military industry, the Weapon Workshop, the Armor Division, and the Bow and Crossbow Division will be responsible for weapon forging, armor making, and bow and crossbow making, respectively. ”

Ouyang Shuo turned his head to look at Ge Hongliang and said, "Director Ge, the formation of the Bow and Crossbow Division will be fully entrusted to you, including the appointment of the Director. I hope that within a week, the crossbow division will be in place. ”

"Please rest assured, the attribute will personally supervise this matter." Ge Hongliang replied.

Ouyang Shuo nodded and said, "That's good." The scale of the bow and crossbow division cannot be less than 300 people, and Director Ge must coordinate the training of all kinds of skilled personnel and apprentices, and there must be no mistakes. My request is to ensure that every soldier in the army is equipped with a bow. Infantry with longbows, cavalry with horned bows. The crossbows are mainly the divine arm crossbow and the bed crossbow used to defend the city. In particular, the bed crossbow should be prioritized and installed on the built city walls, including the city walls of Friendship Town, as soon as possible. Soon, there will be a fierce battle to defend the city, and it will not be sloppy. ”

"Understood!"

"In addition, to produce bows and crossbows in large quantities, the supply of beef tendons and horns is a big problem. Director Ge, you have to arrange for the cavalry battalion to go out hunting frequently, and hunt a large number of wild bison in order to obtain cow tendon and horns. Ouyang Shuo continued to command.

Ge Hongliang said confidently: "There is no problem at all, the cavalry battalion has been reorganized in place and can be dispatched at any time." ”

"Good. Xu Kun, how many blacksmith apprentices have been trained in the weapon workshop? Ouyang Shuo asked instead.

"Back to adults. Last month, the weapons workshop sent a total of 20 junior blacksmiths to the Jiafang Division, and there are currently 50 blacksmith apprentices. Xu Kun, the director of the weapons workshop, replied.

Ouyang Shuo shook his head and said dissatisfiedly: "Not enough, far from enough." This month, at least 100 junior blacksmiths will be sent to the Kobo Division, thirty junior blacksmiths will be sent to the bow and crossbow division, and the weapon workshop itself will also have 50 junior blacksmiths. Can it be done? ”

Xu Kun nodded in embarrassment and said, "The subordinates do their best." ”

"It's not about doing your best, it's about doing it. If there is a shortage of people, go to the Household Registration Department to ask for it, and I will say hello to the Household Registration Division. If you can't do it, I'll remove you, understand? Ouyang Shuo said solemnly.

"Yes, mission guaranteed!"

Finally, Ouyang Shuo looked at Zhao Youfang of the War Readiness Department and said, "The War Readiness Department must coordinate with the Material Reserve Administration on the issue of iron ore mining and supply. In addition, it is necessary to contact the Supplies Reserve Department to find suitable wood for making bows and swords. ”

"Yes, mission guaranteed!" Zhao Youfang said loudly.

"Good. So be it, go ahead, and I hope to see your results in a month's time. Ouyang Shuo finally said.

"Yes!"
