This is not over yet.

A special winding device, a bow-hanging body, an eight-stone crossbow comes with a wooden frame, and a 45-degree hanger.

When the arrow flew out, Liu An said to Yelu Longqing: "Ten thousand crossbowmen, 10,000 auxiliary soldiers, the two armies face each other. I guess the movement is faster. When the cavalry rushed to the front of the formation, they can shoot at least two arrows. The first arrow is pre-installed. The second arrow needs ten breaths to lift the strings, and the ten breaths can rush to seventy steps."

Yelu Longqing turned his head and looked at Liu An: "This thing requires crossbow soldiers, and even ten thousand girls can kill people."

"Well, I've tried it. It's impossible for an ordinary female soldier to complete the winding and hang arrows within ten breaths."

What Yelu Longqing meant was that machines like Liu An were already killing weapons and did not require professional training. Just use the strings, adjust the angle according to the officer's orders, and press the machine button according to the commands.

But Liu An's answer left Yelu Longqing speechless.

In the Song Dynasty, a one-stone crossbow was the standard military configuration. As for bows, ordinary soldiers had three types of bows in the official records: nine, eight, and seven dou, and two stones were controlled weapons. The eight-stone crossbow, which is Liu An's identity, dare to bring it out. If you change someone, even Cao Wei would go to the Privy Council to explain and admit his mistake.

The cavalry of the Song army used crossbows, one stone crossbow.

The cavalry of the Liao army used bows and nine dou bows. Yelu Longqing's most elite battalion in the Shan army used two stone bows, but in fact they were seven dou one stone.

(Note, the most elite cavalry of the Liao army belongs to the Shanxi army, which is about the same as the modern seventy-five-pound bow. It is very strong."

Yelu Longqing suddenly laughed: "Are you demonstrating to me?"

"No, if you really demonstrate, I will smooth the mountain in front of you with a thousand cannons. Do you believe it?"

"letter."

Yelu Longqing did not doubt that he had never seen Liu An's Divine Powerful General Cannon, but had seen the power. The four cannons made the city walls of Youzhou lose a corner, and it would not be too easy for thousands of cannons to smooth a mound.

Liu An rubbed his face: "Tell me something, don't turn your back."

"Turn against each other, you say." Yelu Longqing felt a very bad premonition in his heart.

Liu An said, "I plan to sell you this kind of bow so that you can equip the troops, the price..." Yelu Longqing interrupted Liu An: "Don't talk about good things, first talk about bad things that can make me turn against you."

"Okay, I have received the news that you have arranged to destroy all the soldiers and horses in the domestic city. Your 20,000 soldiers and horses, the Jurchens are said to be 100,000, and the Bohai people are 30,000 or 40,000, and they are all destroyed."

Yelu Longqing's face changed a few times, and he let out a long sigh: "Since there was an agreement before, you will lose if you lose."

Liu An asked tentatively: "Aren't you angry?"

"Don't you be angry mean I can't afford to lose, so I can't be angry."

That's right, Liu An and Yelu Longqing had an agreement before that in the war on Goryeo, the Liao Kingdom sent Jurchens as the main force, and the Liao Kingdom sent up at most 20,000 soldiers to participate. On Liu An's side, Goryeo soldiers were the main force, and Liu An could only send up at most 1,000 Song soldiers.

Now, the Jurchens have been defeated and have also damaged 20,000 Liao troops.

What can Yelu Longqing say? He doesn't want to bear the reputation of losing, but the loss is indeed great. That is the 20,000 people he carefully selected. It can be said that at least 3,000 people will be the foundation of the new Shan Army in the future.

Liu An added: "In order to be afraid that you will turn against each other, I sent a messenger to the north last night to defend all towns and guard against each army to prevent the Liao army from moving south."

"Oh!" Yelu Longqing sighed heavily: "No one will go south. Why did I come to Bianliang? Because Zhongjing wants Youzhou South Courtyard to send 350,000 feet of cloth, 2,000 dan of silk, and edible essence and spices three months ago..."

When talking about spices, Yelu Longqing shook his head helplessly, obviously he didn't want to continue talking.

Liu An asked, "How many?"

"a lot of."

“How many are there?”

"That's it, one hundred thousand pounds."

Liu An was shocked.

Even the Emperor of the Song Dynasty did not dare to ask a certain state to send 100,000 kilograms of spices. Not to mention a certain state, he just asked Chameng to send 100,000 kilograms of spices. Essence and spices refer to those high-priced and precious spices.

In food spices, pepper count, cinnamon count, and cardamom count.

For the Liao Kingdom, it also needs to add fragrance, vermicelli, grass fruit, etc. that they must use.

In terms of Caoguo, the price of each chariot in Chameng is about 1,200 cents, which is the price of dried fruit. After being transported to Mingzhou, the price plus the tax collected by the Maritime Bureau has increased to 2,700 cents per stone. When transported to Bianliang, the market price of Bianliang City is 45 cents per catty.

The receipt price of Wuqing Port is the average price of 3,600 cigarettes per stone, with addition and subtraction according to the quality.

The shipping price of merchants in Youzhou is between seven and nine guan per stone. This is the average price. According to the season, the season of sea transportation, and the demand, it floats up and down within the range of 30%. This is the normal price.

One hundred thousand jin is one thousand tan, and the purchase price of Wuqing Port should be around 5,000 to 6,000 tan.

After Liu An calculated this, he asked: "It's only 5,000 guan, not much."

Yelu Longqing smiled and shook his head: "If you add the ones you must send to Zhongjing every quarter in the past."

That's enough.

Liu An understands that this temporary tribute is the last straw.

Yelu Longqing said again: "I have someone in Zhongjing, so I left before I sent this official document to Youzhou. I didn't receive the official document. This matter would be delayed, but I can't escape it. Now you understand why I asked the Song merchants to invest in various river construction, road construction, and procurement matters."

Liu An shook his head: "It's not that simple, I still feel like there is a conspiracy."

"If you have it, you should be careful. You can calculate it yourself. On the one hand, my mother proposed a tax reduction, and on the other hand, Zhongjing wants to increase the supply of the South Court. This matter will be known once you calculate it."

Yelu Longqing didn't say anything nonsense. If Liu An really did, he would post a few words about the difference.

While demanding tax cuts, supply is required.

The South Court can't come up with these anymore.

Liu An asked: "You did not count the increased commercial tax in Youzhou City."

Yelu Longqing said: "Today, I will tell you something you can investigate, but I guess you Song people have not realized it yet. For nothing else, I just let you understand that I did not lie to you."

Yelu Longqing signaled his guards to prepare a fire for himself, then gave him a piece of wild boar ribs and a front leg, and then prepared the wine, and let the guards deal with the rest themselves. Then he said to Liu An while roasting pork.

"We are the Great Khitan and were killed by you Han people."

This sentence is very ruthless.

Before Liu An asked, Yelu Longqing said, "The Han surrendered ministers created the government system of my Great Khitan for the Shengzong. You can't imagine how many pastures and land the Han officials occupied. Of course, my Khitan nobles occupied more. Later, the palace guards were encouraged by the Han officials to occupy a large amount of land."

Yelu Longqing originally thought that Han officials provided all Han rituals.

Recently I found out that it is not.
