She personally displayed the small arms and arrows for the general to see. The general's eyes couldn't help but shine with a faint green light as he almost drooled.
However, if it was a battle between two armies, or a fight between infantry, in times of crisis, or when one was injured, these weapons would suddenly be used to not only kill the enemy, but also protect oneself from being killed by the enemy. Furthermore, these weapons could be used on the body and were extremely well concealed.
If he could equip his soldiers with these weapons on a large scale, it was easy to imagine how much damage he would cause to the enemies and how many casualties he would suffer if he used them all of a sudden.
The general was extremely dissatisfied, but his gaze was cold. The princess possessed such a good weapon, yet she had actually taken it out earlier and equipped it for the army. If there had been crossbows and these weapons, the warriors of the Northern Frontier would have been reduced in number, causing huge damage to the enemy troops. He pondered and was about to ask.
”After I heard about the war in the north, I looked through the information of all the weapons and designed a series of crossbows. It's just that my time was limited and I didn't manufacture many crossbows. ”These days, I have been busy with military hospitals and time is pressing. I have been looking for crossbows and weapons, and have also designed and created a few small gadgets. I wonder how useful they will be on the battlefield.”
The princess' words stopped the general from questioning her.
The general had a feeling that his thoughts had long been seen through by the princess. He hurriedly cupped his fists and bowed, ”Princess, you have worked hard all day and night. He didn't expect that the princess was a natural genius who was proficient in mechanical weapons. This was a blessing to his lord, a blessing to the north. If they could be equipped in the army, they would definitely make the barbarians and barbarians of the northern region lose their courage and return in defeat. At that time, the princess had done a great deed. I humbly request the princess to bestow upon me the image of the weapon for the military to forge immediately. ”
Yun Zihuang laughed: ”I have yet to test its effectiveness on the battlefield, and have only just made it. Since the Great Commander has sent a general to ask, then consider this my wager. If I lose, not only will I lose in terms of these weapons, but I'll also lose in terms of my own life. Could the general please ask the commander what kind of bet he can take a fancy to? ”
The general sighed. He was a high ranking general in the northern army. But now he had been reduced to a situation where he had to pass messages back and forth.
He smiled bitterly as he cupped his fist. ”Princess, the First Commander has spoken. If the soldiers under the County Lord's command gain military merits, they can be awarded double. If they commit mistakes, they can be exempted from punishment. The two Canton Lords can choose any one of them.”
She pursed her lips, ”The First Commander is good at scheming. I'm impressed. Please inform the First Commander about this bet. I accept.”
The general sighed, ”Princess, please do not forget. The deadline is three days, and thirty-two hours to reach Black Bear Valley.”
A swarthy black object appeared in her hand. When the general saw it, his eyes widened and he was flabbergasted.
”I feel that a thousand men is a little too little. If we use this Gale Token to dispatch tens of thousands of men and horses, what does the general think?”
”Gale Decree!”
The general's pupils constricted. He had never expected that the princess would have a Gale Token in her hands. With this Gale Token, she would be able to command the Wind Chasing Army. If the princess really used the Storm Token and deployed several tens of thousands of the Wind Chasing Army, it would be a huge mess!
”How many people should we transfer? Does the general think that fifty thousand is a little less? ”
