Chapter 296: Training
"...Catapult?"
Lu Ban was stunned when he heard Jiang Tian's words.
Then he squinted his eyes and began to think.
Jiang Tian stood beside him quietly waiting for the other party's answer.
Compared with the catapult, as long as the quality of the stones placed on it is sufficient, the catapult is more powerful and can cause area damage.
Whether it is siege or defense, it is a great weapon.
Of course, catapults also have their own weaknesses.
First of all, this thing is ineffective against close targets. Moreover, compared with the ballista, it requires more materials, and it is also troublesome to transfer the catapult and ammunition.
Another point is that since the projectile is used to hit people, the accuracy of the catapult may be a little worse.
However, Jiang Tian didn't care much about these weaknesses.
At present, if you need to travel, a ballista is enough, and the purpose of making a catapult is mainly for defense.
If the current situation continues, it is very likely that an entire alliance will attack the city in the future.
By that time, the catapult will be a well-deserved killer weapon.
If the opponent's entire alliance floats over, accuracy is not a big problem against such a large target. Anyway, it will kill anyone who is hit, and there is no use hiding in the house.
Now we have to see if Lu Ban can do this.
The catapult seems to have originated in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and Lu Ban happened to be a figure from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
While Jiang Tian was waiting.
Lao An, who was assigned to the patrol team, happened to come to the north. After hearing the conversation between the two, he stepped in front of Jiang Tian and said seriously:
"Lord, I think I can make this catapult!"
Hearing Lao An's words, Jiang Tian raised his eyebrows.
Lao An, whose full name is An Jingsi, also known as Li Cunxiao, was a fierce general in the late Tang Dynasty.
As a leader of marches and wars in the late Tang Dynasty, even if he had not personally participated in the production of catapults, he should have seen a lot of them.
With him here, it would not be difficult to create a catapult.
Then, Jiang Tian nodded and said:
"Well, then, you cooperate with Luban to study the catapult and try to make this thing as soon as possible."
"Yes, my lord!"
Lao An responded, and then asked:
"But... Lord, if I leave my post, this patrol job..."
Jiang Tian waved his hand and replied:
"You go your own way. We have more people now, so we won't be in the way."
As soon as he said this, Lao An said no more and walked with Lu Ban to the room where the rubbings were stored.
Of course, once he leaves, someone will have to find someone to fill the patrol vacancy.
Jiang Tian raised his eyes and looked up.
On the island, Bai Sheng and another ordinary person were checking the situation around the island from the south to the west.
Due to the expansion of the land, the previous patrol team of two people has now become three people.
After Lao An left, there was still one missing.
Liu Sandao, Qiangzi and another member of the patrol team kept vigil last night and are now resting.
Lu Bu was also asleep in the room at this time, waiting for arrangements.
Huo Qubing was idle at the moment, wandering around various jobs on the island, feeling like he couldn't sleep but couldn't find anything to do.
At this time, he also felt Jiang Tian's gaze, strode directly over and shouted:
"My lord, what are your orders?"
"You came just in time."
Jiang Tian nodded and ordered: "Lao An has something to do. You can temporarily take over his duties and patrol the island."
"yes!"
After Huo Qubing agreed, Jiang Tian thought about it and said:
"By the way, you also know the current situation. The sudden expansion of the land has led to a shortage of patrol manpower.
Moreover, as time goes by, our land will become larger and larger, and the patrol team will definitely need to further expand and recruit more personnel.
After dinner, Lu Bu and the others will stay overnight. If you are not in a hurry to rest, take some people to train and prepare for the expansion of the team later. "
"Yes, my lord!"
After hearing this instruction, Huo Qubing's face showed a hint of joy.
After bowing his hands in response, he held his head high and started patrolling.
These instructions are complete.
I heard a 'bang' sound coming from the east, and a box was fished up.
Looking up, Li Xiuning had opened the box and a man stood inside.
Seeing this, Jiang Tian also took advantage of the situation and came to the east to check the situation.
After talking for a while, I realized that this person was just an ordinary person, but his physical fitness was pretty good.
Jiang Tian nodded, glanced at Huo Qubing who was surrounding the edge of the island, and gave instructions to the newcomer:
"Now go over and patrol with Commander Huo. He will tell you about the situation on our island. During the patrol, you can learn more kung fu from him to prepare for future patrols."
"Yes, boss."
The newcomer responded, walked up to Huo Qubing, and followed him around the island.
At this moment, a fluorescent light gathered near the two of them.
The fluorescence took shape, and a muscular fish-man rushed over with a roar, scaring the newcomer so much that he sat on the ground.
Then, Huo Qubing swung his spear lightly and stabbed the fishman through.
This time, the newcomer was frightened again.
Seeing this, Jiang Tian shook his head helplessly.
You seem to have pretty good physical fitness, why are you so timid?
No, you still have to practice hard, and you can't let that mess of flesh grow in vain.
While observing the two people, there was movement behind Jiang Tian.
"drink!"
"drink!"
Jiang Tian turned around and saw that the four strong men who had been newly arranged to the fishing place were standing on horseback and punching the air.
Li Xiuning, on the other hand, was paying attention to the conditions of the fishing rods and supervising them to see if anyone was lazy.
There are now seven people in the fishing place, and there is no longer the rush to lift rods and open boxes like before. Before the supplies are hooked, the group of people seems to be relatively leisurely.
Taking advantage of this time, Li Xiuning also began to train them.
Jiang Tian was very satisfied with this.
You know, apart from monsters appearing on the edge of the island, the place where monsters appear the most is the fishing area.
Of course, due to the large number of fishing rods on Jiangtian Island, a total of 68, the probability of catching a monster is 68 times that of others.
According to the current probability, catching more than 70 monsters in a day is not a problem at all.
Fishing seems to be a relaxing place, but in fact it is also a tiring job.
These strong men were arranged here for this reason. The monsters caught in the future could not be dealt with solely by Li Xiuning, but also needed other people to deal with them.
But thinking of this, Jiang Tian's heart skipped a beat.
if……
After that, there were more and more fishing rods, and the number of monsters caught was quite scary.
Now, almost a company of monsters can be caught in one day. If this situation continues, we will not be able to catch a battalion in the future?
Good guy, it seems that this person is not enough, I have to put a barracks here.
A barracks...
Thinking of this thing, Jiang Tian raised his eyebrows.
Since I have a commander on my side, the barracks are really indispensable!
