Chapter 943 Launch Action


Chapter 943 Launching Action

From the early bed crossbows to the current heavy individual crossbows, they, Dazhou, have rich experience in making crossbows.

But even so, there are only twenty-one people with Zhuang Mengdie as the core who have the ability to manufacture the core structure of the crossbow.

For this reason, Zhou Xu also specially arranged a separate group for twenty people except Zhuang Mengdie. Their daily work is to constantly polish the core mechanisms required to manufacture crossbows.

As for other components that do not require such high precision, they are left to their apprentices.

When these apprentices' skills improve to the point where they can polish these fine parts and assemble the core structure, they can become regular workers.

Originally, after years of hard work, the number of three-bow bed crossbows and city defense crossbows in Dazhou has basically been built, and the work intensity can gradually decrease.

They also thought that work would be easier this year.

Who would have thought that when he turned around, he would actually make another individual crossbow for them.

You know, the smaller and more delicate the parts, the more difficult it is to polish them.

The newly developed heavy-duty individual crossbow is currently the smallest crossbow in Dazhou. It takes more time to polish this part. This can be clearly felt when watching their director make the test product.

At the same time, what is even more terrible is that considering the nature of this heavy individual crossbow, His Majesty wants to form a crossbow unit. The initial plan is to set the size at 500 people.

That is to say, at least five hundred of these heavy individual crossbows are needed! At the same time, taking into account the problem of damaged replacement, on the basis of these 500 aircraft, they have to make another two to three hundred aircraft as backup.

How many three-bow bed crossbows were made before? How many city defense crossbows were built?

In front of them, there were seven or eight hundred heavy individual crossbows ready to start. Just thinking about it made them feel dizzy.

But Zhou Xu obviously doesn't care about this. He will allocate sufficient funds to you and select any manpower you need. As a ruler, he has done everything he can do. The specific manufacturing and production can only be decided by themselves. .

While busy, time passes quietly, and winter has come to an end.

During this period, Soros, who was in the southern border, had already used carpet-like search methods to completely clean up the rat people who broke into their southern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Now that we are counting the days, it is almost time for their southern garrison to launch follow-up operations.

Before the large forces set off, the reconnaissance troops were the first to take action.

In fact, throughout the winter, the reconnaissance force's mission basically never stopped.

After all, the rat men of the Rotten Clan opposite had already had a seizure in their brains in the autumn, and no one could guarantee that they would not have another seizure in the winter.

At that time, a large-scale rat tide will be sent to fight them. If they are not prepared, they will suffer heavy losses.

For this reason, it has become a very important task to send out reconnaissance troops to monitor the Skaven territory from a long distance and confirm the status of the Skaven border while ensuring their own safety.

After almost a winter, the ratmen of the Rotten Clan on the opposite side behaved surprisingly honestly. Judging from this situation, the battle in autumn really hurt them.

This is also invisible, adding a bit of confidence to Soros and others who are about to lead a large army on the expedition.

The reconnaissance force that received follow-up orders during this period also officially launched further reconnaissance operations.

Different from the previous long-distance surveillance, the entire operation began to become more powerful when the reconnaissance force knew that a large force was about to go out. They even began to frequently penetrate into the territory of the rat people, just to obtain as much information as possible on the opposite rat people and provide help for their subsequent attacks on the southern border.

In the process, they inevitably clashed with the Skaven Border Patrol.

Without sufficient support, the combat effectiveness of the small team of ratmen was very poor. Several armed conflicts basically ended in the victory of the lizardman reconnaissance force.

According to the situation of the rat people, they naturally don't care about these casualties, but this does not mean that they can tolerate the lizard people, their mortal enemies, doing whatever they want on their territory.

On the Ratmen side, the strength of the patrol team quickly increased. In fact, it could no longer be called a patrol team, but more like a small force.

And there are many small troops like this near the border. Once they find traces of the lizard man reconnaissance troops, they will immediately send out a signal.

At that time, the surrounding troops will gather together as quickly as possible and attack in groups!

Faced with such a battle, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the Lizardmen reconnaissance force also wisely chose to retreat temporarily.

At the same time, over at the Southern Fortress, they have been preparing for this battle this winter.

Everything that needs to be prepared has already been prepared.

Now that the time has come, with an order from Soros, the large army officially set off and steadily advanced towards the territory of the rat people.

While maintaining their status, the large army moved from their southern fortress to the border of the rat people's territory, which was almost a five-day journey.

After arriving at the front line, Soros was in no rush to launch an offensive.

Their whereabouts must have been exposed long ago. The rat men on the opposite side are already on guard, so there is no need for them to rush for a while. They might as well let the soldiers who have just completed a wave of march first Let's take a good three days' rest to adjust our condition.

Soros has a lot of experience in fighting against the rat men, and his overall performance is as steady as an old dog.

During this period, facing such a stable southern border force, the Rat Man had already become anxious before taking any official action.

The only thing to blame is the battle in autumn, which indeed caused them serious injuries.

Coupled with the intelligence information brought back by the deserters, it also caused some panic among the rat people.

This wave has not yet started, but it has already doubled their pressure.

Now that I have received the news, from the perspective of the rat people, how can they let the southern troops rest in peace?

Basically, Soros and the others had just arrived at the front line, and a large tide of rats broke into their field of vision.

Looking at the tide of rats sweeping towards them in the distance, there was not much surprise on Soros's face, and he was obviously mentally prepared for it.

"Form up! Attack!"

Pulling out the saber at his waist, Soros ordered loudly.

“For the Emperor!”

“For the Emperor!!!”

In an instant, a thundering war cry echoed on the border, and the lizards in the south The human troops officially started their first battle to turn defense into offense!
