    As for the production of crossbows in this era, not only were the requirements for bow materials very strict, but there were also detailed regulations on the specific process steps.  "The six materials must be taken at the right time. When the six materials are gathered together, the skillful one will harmonize them." Analyze the bow in winter, fix the angles in spring, fix the tendons in summer, gather all the materials in autumn, and put the bow arms into the bow box in the cold winter to finalize the shape.  Repair the appearance during severe winter and extremely cold weather.  In winter, when the wood texture of the bow is analyzed, it will naturally become smooth and fine; when the corners are cured in spring, it will be naturally moist and soft; when the tendons are cured in summer, they will naturally become less tangled; when all the materials are gathered together in autumn, they will become natural and tight; in cold winter, when the bow body is fixed, the bow will not deform when opened; in severe winter, it will not be deformed.  In cold weather, glue and paint are completely solid, so the appearance can be repaired.  Put on the bowstring in spring and store it for another year before it can be used.  The above-mentioned complicated process requires two to three years.  In the bow-making workshop, since various tasks can be carried out in a staggered and streamlined manner, there are batches of finished products every year, but for one bow, the working hours cannot be shortened.  The manufacture of compound bows represents the peak of ancient bow-making skills, but the question is, do I have so much time to do such a tedious task?  "At least I don't. What's more, the emergence of steel crossbows allows me to obtain finished long-range weapons in a very short period of time. Why not?"  Nowadays, the most important thing is the use of simple lathes. Well, this thing is very simple. Anyone who has seen a sewing machine will know very well that the oldest machine tools are not even as sophisticated as sewing machines.  Because waterwheels are used most frequently in my various factories, however, because they mostly use wooden structures, they are prone to damage and affect the progress of the project, so I began to consider the use of lathes from then on. ?? After coming here for nearly a year, I worked with the craftsmen to design, and finally made the first machine tool. Now, the machine tool can already turn threads, and it has also produced steel ball bearings.  This has greatly reduced the friction of current vehicles. In addition, the emergence of steel plate shock absorption makes the vehicle appear more stable. The spring is still under development.  ¡°Well, I have to say that the large number of refugees recruited are simply a cornucopia for me. There are countless talents of all kinds, including more than three hundred blacksmiths.  ¡°In addition, there are tailors, carpenters, shoemakers, doctors, agricultural experts, business talents, and even some veterans who have experienced many battles. In short, I will try my best to let them make full use of their talents.  It can be said that at the beginning, Hancheng County was just like a big factory, but now Hancheng County is more like a new city.  Although land transportation is underdeveloped, the growth of waterway trade has reached a jaw-dropping level.  Today, Hancheng County's fleet has 27 medium-sized sand ships with a load of 2,500 tons. The number of shipyards has increased from single digits in the past to 27, and three sand ships can leave every month.  .  "This new type of ship, which is fast, has a large carrying capacity, and is not easily stranded on shoals, is very popular. So far, only two ships have been sold.  Because I feel that it is not enough even for transporting goods.  There are also three shipyards, which are specialized bases for the development of new ships. Currently, small and medium-sized Fu ships, Galen ships and clipper ships have been developed.  Through the ship test, it was proved that the speed of the clipper ship is the fastest among the currently known ships. Even the sand ship cannot catch up.  Thinking about it, this thing was the fastest ocean-going ship in the world before the arrival of steam engines.  It's strange that it's not fast.  Unfortunately, I am located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, which is too far away from the sea. Therefore, now I can only continue testing on prototype ships and train some sailors so that they can become familiar with the operation of these ships.  Lay the foundation for future voyages.  In a valley about twenty-seven miles away from Hancheng County, here is the real military camp. Five thousand soldiers are stationed here. All the soldiers are undergoing arduous training. Looking at the soldiers, holding up  A crossbow, and there were stones falling on the crossbow, so they had to keep their hands steady in such a situation.  Not far away on the river beach, soldiers were fighting each other there, using non-point weapons. But even so, if they really got into a fight, they would be bruised for at least three to five days.  The soldiers in another place were undergoing rock climbing training, and on the vast campus, about a battalion of soldiers were standing there, fully armed and carrying their bags. They were preparing for a field trip, and they also needed to go outside.  Camping, such long-distance camp training in the wild, is a regular subject, mainly to exercise their willpower and endurance.  Standing on the tall building located on the mountain side of the military camp, I admired the training of these soldiers. Next to me, Li Yuanfang and others, as well as Han Shi'e and Han Xiong, were all here.  "Brother, do you really dare to predict that the emperor will encounter a crisis in northern Xinjiang?" Han Shi'e, who was burly and wearing iron armor, stroked his thick beard under his chin, looked at the soldiers who were training hard, and frowned.  .  "Today's crisis??, I have had many conflicts with the Sui Dynasty. What's more important is that Pei Zuocheng's plan to kill Shi Shu Hu Xi a few days ago has angered Shibi Khan.  "Having said this, I can't help but feel a little helpless. "So, the Sui Dynasty was already in turmoil, and Dr. You Guanglu and Shangshu Zuo Cheng, one of the important advisors of the Sui Dynasty, an outstanding diplomat, strategist, and a geographer,  Pei Ju, an expert on ethnic issues, has realized that compared with today's Great Sui Dynasty, the Turkic Shibi Khan's tribe is gradually becoming stronger and will pose a huge threat to the Great Sui Dynasty, so he specially made suggestions to Yang Guang to disperse the Turkic Shibi Khan.  Yang Guang listened to Pei Ju's advice and planned to marry Shibi Khan's younger brother Chijishe as a clan daughter and make him Khan of the South. However, he was afraid of the power of Shibi Khan and Chijishe.  He did not dare to accept the canonization. This incident made Shibi Khan resentful of the Sui Dynasty. The Turkic minister Shi Shuhu Xitou was good at trying and was favored by Shibi Khan.  Hu Xi did business and killed him in Mayi, which was deceived by Hu Xi of Shi Shu. Then Yang Guang sent an envoy to announce an edict to Shibi Khan, saying that Hu Xi of Shi Shu had betrayed Shibi Khan and came to surrender to the Sui Dynasty.  Your authority, for your help, killed that guy. And Shibi was not a fool. After learning about this situation, he decided not to enter the court anymore. Now, Yang Guang intends to patrol the border and investigate.  How could Shibi Khan, who hated Yang Guang's actions so much, let go of such an opportunity so easily? Besides, with the Central Plains in chaos now, Shibi's ambition might have started to burn brightly.  If Yang Guang is captured or killed, the Central Plains, which has already become a mess, may become a mess. By then, maybe he will be able to take over the prosperous Central Plains like his ancestors.  "My dear brother, what you said makes sense, but are you really sure that if you come to his aid, Yang Guang will be able to escape?"  "Han Shi'e stroked his beard for a long time, and then said to himself. "Whether to save or not is just a matter of attitude. What is important is what kind of benefits we can get from this rescue. This is the most critical.  "My master raised his eyebrows and smiled. Yang Qiong nodded and agreed: "Yes, our current strength is still not enough, but one county can train more than ten thousand elites, which is close to the limit.  If you want to have greater power, at this stage, you still need to make contributions during the period of Yang Guang's suffering.  " Yang Qiong pointed to the distance and said with great pride: "Young Master has managed the land of one county like this. If you give him the land of one county, I believe it will be enough to bring peace to the world.  " "In this case, Brother Yu has nothing to say.  Han Shi'e, who was deep in thought, nodded and sighed. After experiencing life and death, although he hated Yang Guang deeply, he knew very well that with his current strength, there was no way he could deal with Yang Guang. As long as he can see  As long as Yang Guang ugh, the Sui Dynasty will be destroyed, no matter what method is used, not to mention that after getting along for such a long time, Han Shi'e is very clear about how amazing this young master's intelligence is, so he has no objection.  He will not go to rescue Yang Guang. He prefers to stay and train new soldiers. When the time comes, my son and the county magistrate Han Xiong will lead the rescue of Yang Guang, while Yang Qiong will be in charge of the county seat. I remember that in history, Li Shimin's.  The first battle is this year, to rescue Yang Guang. Although I don¡¯t know the role this guy played in this war, I know very well that I should do it? The most important thing is to gather a group of like-minded people to work together.  Go to the rescue, rather than join the rescue team of so-and-so or Governor XXX. Anyway, we are here to gain fame, not to die. What if I go with others and let me be the vanguard?  I am not so idle that I am interested in going to the battlefield to seek death. Therefore, at the end of June, I wrote to Chang'an and informed my group of friends that the emperor's patrol in northern Xinjiang would cause unpredictable changes.  Worrying, maybe, we people may have the opportunity to make contributions. Sure enough, in late July, news came that Yang Guang was going to inspect the northern frontier, and my master's preparations were also stepped up.  The five thousand soldiers who were recruited were undergoing strict training. At the beginning of August, they finally received the news that Yang Guang had set out to patrol the northern part of the Great Wall five days ago. But what was shocking was that on the fourth day after receiving the news.  One day, I received a message from Fei Ge, and on the third day after Yang Guang arrived in Saibei, Shibi Khan ordered 400,000 cavalry to plan an attack on Yang Guang's chariot, and Princess Yicheng first sent an envoy to report this to Yang Guang  There was a sudden change. Yang Guang and his entourage hurriedly entered Yanmen, and Qi Wang Yang led the rear army to Guo County. Soon, more than 400,000 cavalry led by Shibi Khan raised their weapons.  , came to Yanmen County to kill. The emperor was shocked and ordered all the counties and counties to recruit troops to help. Unfortunately, General Zuo Tunwei sent troops out of the pass and ordered the strong men from all counties to join his army.  Aid the emperor.
