Although his head was turning, Ying Gao followed Zhang Han to his private arsenal with a smile on his face.

But when Ying Gao saw a row of Qin crossbows of all sizes standing on Zhang Han's weapon stand, his face, which had already been expecting a lot, collapsed immediately.

Although the row of Qin crossbows looked similar to what he imagined and the structure was fine, the fatal thing was that the smallest one reached his chest.

Ying Gao in his previous life could indeed tell from the traces of Qin crossbows in the Terracotta Warriors that the Qin crossbows equipped by the Qin soldiers would be at least five feet long, but he felt that as a weapon that anyone could operate, the Qin nobles would definitely have smaller models for them to use more conveniently. But obviously, this situation now shattered Ying Gao's imagination.

"This... I wonder if the general has a smaller combat crossbow?"

Zhang Han was obviously a little confused about Ying Gao's question. He stepped forward and picked up the smallest battle crossbow, and then knelt on one knee with both hands. While demonstrating that a crossbow of this size could be controlled by Ying Gao, he explained: "This crossbow can be easily operated by a single person. If you can aim within twenty feet, you can kill the enemy. If it is smaller... Before you can load the arrows again, the enemy can run closer. This battle crossbow is useless."

After hearing this, Ying Gao finally understood a little. After all, this is a guy used to fight the enemy on the battlefield, and there are still requirements for range. After decades of research and development of Qin crossbows, Qin crossbows have undoubtedly formed a fixed standard in size, tension, weight, and range. Apart from himself, no Qin nobleman wants to carry the crossbow to defend himself.

But for Ying Gao, he would not have to shoot enemies twenty feet away (that is about fifty meters) away. Ying Gao would be satisfied if he could shoot enemies within ten feet at once. After all, he was not going to the battlefield, but to guard against assassins. Observing the size and shape of the battle crossbow, a trace of thought began to appear in his mind.

"I wonder if the general can give up his love and give it to Gao two such combat crossbows?"

Of course, Ying Gao could not sit in Zhang Han's mansion to study the improvement of the war crossbow, so he hurriedly put forward such a request. He did this to express his goodwill to Zhang Han. He wanted to take this opportunity to establish a good relationship with Zhang Han, because he could see from Zhang Han's eyes that this guy could still fight for!

"Of course it's good. The young master can send someone to pick it up!"

"No, no, I'll take it back in the carriage!" Ying Gao was impatient to carry one in one hand and walked out of Zhang Han's mansion while thanking him.

Looking at Ying Gao's back, Zhang Han couldn't help but think in his heart: Young Master Gao is a bit interesting. Could it be that our great Qin Dynasty is not a situation where no one follows? As for the two battle crossbows that were taken away, Zhang Han didn't care about it.

After returning to the mansion, Ying Gao carried two war crossbows and entered his study. From the perspective of more than two thousand years later, the structure of the war crossbow was still very simple. For Ying Gao, the huge war crossbow troubled him only two points. One is that the main part of the five-foot is a bit too long. According to Ying Gao's desire, if you want to be able to carry it, it must be reduced to one-third to one-quarter of the original length. The second is that the bows on both sides of the crossbow arms are a little wide and are not suitable for carrying. He wants to turn the bows on both sides into foldable or disassembled. In this way, the entire crossbow will look like a stick more than one foot long, and it is not so abrupt when it is carried on his body.

As for core components such as Wangshan, teeth and hanging knives made of bronze parts, Yinggao believes that a slight change in his understanding of mechanics can still kill enemies at close range. After all, his requirements for this thing are not so strict, and it is enough to protect his life at critical moments.

After traveling to Daqin, Ying Gao stayed up all night and finally used his rough brushwork to improve the various components of his battle crossbow. Safety issues are the top priority and cannot be tolerated by Ying Gao. What's more, Ying Gao knew in his heart that he was sending the Zhu family to take risks. If he really shocked the snake, he would definitely be on Zhao Gao's blacklist.

When he gave himself several sketches to his guards and secretly reminded them to find craftsmen to make them, Ying Gao didn't know that his achievements this night almost opened a new chapter in the Battle of the Qin Crossbow. The original Da Qin was scaled, unified, and institutionalized, and doing so was good, but one thing was that it erased everyone's nature of invention and creation. Ying Gao suddenly inspired this nature again. Of course, this was all a story.

"Ying Gao went to Zhang Han's mansion?"

"Yes, Ying Gao stayed in Zhang Han's mansion for a long time before leaving. It is said that Zhang Han also gave Ying Gao two Qin battle crossbows, which shows that the relationship between the two is not ordinary."

Less than a day after Ying Gao left Zhang Han's mansion, the news of his entry and exit from Zhang Han's mansion reached Zhao Gao's ears. It was not that Zhao Gao tried to investigate Ying Gao, but that it was related to Zhang Han.

"Oh? There's still this?"

"No wonder! No wonder Zhang Han didn't know how to be polite several times and refused to accept his uncle's kindness. He probably had already worn a pair of pants with Ying Gao and Feng's father and son. This guy was really confused. Then Feng's father and son did not have much foundation in Daqin? When he was kneeling under his uncle's knees and begging for mercy, he knew what it meant to regret it! How could he know that we had already made arrangements for him..."

Obviously, Yan Le was defeated by Zhang Han and did not get any benefits, so he cursed fiercely.

"Hmph, Zhang Han, Li Si and the Montessor brothers are all noble people, but you don't have to be distracted by this. These people can just add some icing on the cake, better than nothing. Your focus is on the outside, remember!"

If Ying Gao was eavesdropping on their conversation at this time, even though they were speechless, they could probably guess something, and Zhao Gao was obviously making a layout, and this layout had probably entered the final stage. After Ying Gao, who had the memory of the prophet, he would probably know that Zhao Gao had probably started to prepare for what was behind the First Emperor.
