Since the armory has no windows, it is very dim and you can hardly see anything.

Lu Bu was about to ask out loud when the warehouse suddenly lit up. It turned out that the officials had lit dozens of oil lamps in two rows against the wall.

The oil lamp lit up, and the armory suddenly shone with cold light.

Several people present couldn't help but squint their eyes.

At this time, several people were finally able to see the situation in the armory. Rows of wooden shelves lined up with swords that were different from those used by the army today. There are also large wooden boxes stacked into small mountain bags.

The first thing that caught Lu Bu's attention was the battle knives placed on a row of wooden shelves not far away. The shape of the war knife is somewhat similar to the ring-headed knife currently used by the Han army, but it is obviously different. This kind of war knife does not have an iron ring like the iron ring on the handle of the ring head knife, it is more than a meter long, straight, with a single-sided blade, and can be held with both hands. If it is a weapon lover in later generations who sees this kind of knife, they will definitely exclaim: Isn't this a Tang horizontal knife?! That's right, this is the Tang Heng Knife that the blacksmiths made based on Chen Chu's drawing paper, but its current name is the Han Heng Knife.

Don't think that the horizontal knife is a change in shape relative to the ring head knife, in fact, it is far more than that, and the casting process of the horizontal knife has also changed and improved. It is precisely because of the need to improve the process that although Chen Chu has long asked the blacksmiths to try to make horizontal knives, the horizontal knives can only be truly launched today.

Lu Bu walked over and couldn't help but pick up a handle and play with it.

Lu Bu waved his hand a few times, nodded, and then glanced left and right a few times, obviously looking for something to test the knife. But there was nothing else here, and in the end, Lu Bu simply pulled out his sword.

Lu Bu's saber is not ordinary, his saber is made of iron, and it can definitely be regarded as a first-class weapon in this era.

Lu Bu held his saber in his left hand and a horizontal sword in his right hand, and then turned his head to Chen Chu with a asking look. Chen Chu understood what Lu Bu wanted to do, so he smiled and nodded.

With Chen Chu's permission, Lu Bu suddenly shouted, only to hear the sound of 'bang', and the swords in Lu Bu's hands slammed into each other.

looked at Lu Bu's hand again, and saw that Lu Bu's saber was only half cut off! And the horizontal knife in Lu Bu's right hand seemed to be intact!

In fact, it was not intact, Lu Bu, who was holding the horizontal knife, found that a tiny small opening was missing from the blade of the horizontal knife. Even this is enough to shock Lu Bu, you must know that Lu Bu's sword is the best weapon of this era, but it was broken by this new weapon, you can imagine how terrifying the sharpness of this weapon is.

Lu Bu was shocked for a moment, and then said to Chen Chu with a longing expression: "Lord, I want a knife like this!" "This Lu Bu is really welcome.

It's no wonder that Lu Bu is like this, as a military general, who doesn't love divine weapons!

Chen Chu smiled and said, "Of course." Feng Xian and all the generals will have a knife like this, but not these here, the knives here are all issued to sergeants, and your knives are much better than this!

At this time, not only Lu Bu, but even Dian Wei also showed a look of surprise.

"My lord, is it better than such a knife? Is it true? Lu Bu was a little incredulous, because in his imagination, the knife here could already be regarded as a divine weapon.

Chen Chu looked at Lu Bu's shocked expression with interest, and smiled, "When did I lie to you?" The knives here are made to be equipped in batches, and the knives made especially for you are truly honed! In a moment, I will have these unique swords delivered to you.

Lu Bu and Dian Wei's expressions were very excited, and they looked a little impatient, they really wanted to see the saber they had made for themselves immediately.

However, Chen Chu did not fulfill their wishes, he wanted to whet their appetite.

"Lord, what's the name of this knife?" Lu Bu asked again.

"Horizontal knife! Take the meaning of rampant in the world! In the future, the soldiers of my Northern Army will sweep the world with horizontal swords!

Lu Bu and Dian Wei's eyes lit up suddenly, and their mouths kept muttering something.

Lu Bu reluctantly put the horizontal knife in his hand back into the distance. At this time, Chen Chu walked to another row of wooden shelves. This row of wooden frames is a little different from the wooden frame where the horizontal knives are placed, this row of wooden frames is covered with a large piece of black cloth, and what exactly is placed on it, it is impossible to see it at all.

Chen Chu tore off the black cloth, revealing the true face of Lushan inside. It turned out that this row of wooden shelves was actually a heavy weapon with a length of three meters and a long handle and long blade.

The shape of this knife is completely different from that of a horizontal knife, and it looks a bit like a three-pointed and two-edged knife as a whole. The handle of this kind of knife is more than two meters long, the blade is nearly one meter long, the blade is open on both sides, the blade is much wider than the horizontal knife, about five times the horizontal knife, the ridge in the middle is very thick, and the whole large knife exudes a cold atmosphere, which makes people shudder.

Lu Bu was involuntarily attracted to him. Looking at the uniquely shaped and imposing broadsword on the wooden frame, Lu Bu couldn't help but exclaim.

"My lord, what is this?" Lu Bu asked in surprise.

Chen Chu smiled, then took out a big knife and shook it in his hand, weighing fifty catties. Then Chen Chu handed the big knife to Lu Bu and said at the same time: "This knife is called Mo Dao, this will be the main equipment of our heavy infantry!" The forging process of this knife is similar to that of a horizontal knife, or even more complicated, so this knife is extremely sharp, and with its own weight, it can definitely cut the enemy's cavalry and horses in two! "

Mo knife is another weapon in the Tang Dynasty. This weapon is equipped with heavy infantry, and the Modao Array can be described as invincible on the battlefield. Its only downside is that it's too heavy.

Lu Bu took the Mo knife, took two steps back, danced the Mo knife in his hand a few times, and then said excitedly: "Lord, this knife is really a rare weapon!" With that, Lu Bu handed the Mo knife back to Chen Chu. Chen Chu took the Mo knife and put the Mo knife back on the wooden frame.

Then Lu Bu frowned slightly and showed a thoughtful look, and said to Chen Chu after a while: "Lord, this knife is not light, but I am afraid that there are not many people who can make it move!"

Chen Chu nodded, "That's true." This knife weighs fifty pounds, and it is very difficult to choose one out of ten soldiers who can transport this knife! Therefore, those who can be equipped with this knife will be the brave men of our army! Then Chen Chu sighed and said regretfully: "If it weren't for this reason, our army would be generally equipped with this kind of weapon!" If this kind of Mo knife is commonly used by our infantry army, then even if you face the nomadic cavalry on the grassland, you can kill it without leaving a single piece of armor!

Lu Bu and Dian Wei also sighed regretfully. The Mo knife is powerful, but unfortunately, because the weight is too heavy, there will not be many people who can make it.

"The weapons here are these two kinds of knives, and in addition to that, there are ten thousand sets of newly made armor." As he spoke, Chen Chu walked to a large box, opened the box, took out a set of armor from it and handed it to Lu Bu, and then said: "This kind of armor is specially equipped for heavy armor infantry, and its appearance is not much different from today's ordinary heavy armor, mainly to strengthen the frontal defense, and this kind of armor will be worn by the Mo sword soldiers."

Lu Bu took the armor in his hand and looked at it, it was indeed not much different from ordinary heavy armor, and after checking it, the weight seemed to be heavier than ordinary heavy armor.

Lu Bu handed the armor back to Chen Chu, glanced around the armory, and then asked Chen Chu with a little excitement: "Lord, will all the ordnance here be redressed to the Luoyang Legion in Shangjun?"

Chen Chu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I said Fengxian, if I give you all the weapons here, I'm afraid that other generals will say that I am biased!" There are a total of 55,000 horizontal knives, 10,000 Mo knives, and 10,000 sets of heavy armor, of which 20,000 horizontal knives and 5,000 Mo knives and 5,000 sets of heavy armor will be equipped to the Luoyang Army in Shangjun. The others were all equipped to the Guan Yu Department stationed in Keiguan.

Regarding Chen Chu's arrangement, Lu Bu couldn't help but feel strange. The battle of Guanzhong is about to begin, and it stands to reason that most of the equipment should be sent to the direction of Shangjun, but Chen Chu's approach is just the opposite.

Chen Chu saw Lu Bu's doubts, so he explained: "The reason why most of the new equipment is equipped to Jiguan is mainly to enhance the combat effectiveness of Jiguan. The battle between Yuan Shao and Han Fu has ended, and I am worried that when we are fighting against Dong Zhuojun in Guanzhong, the Kwantung princes will make any moves! As he spoke, Chen Chu's face couldn't help but show a hint of worry.

It turned out that news had come a few days ago that the Battle of Jizhou had ended, Yuan Shao had occupied Jizhou, and Han Fu was said to be dead. If this was the case, Chen Chu might not be worried too much, but the reason why Yuan Shao was able to suddenly annihilate Han Fu and occupy Jizhou a few days ago was mainly because of Cao Cao's help.

Cao Cao will actually go to help people! This made Chen Chu feel that things were not simple, which showed that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao had at least reached some kind of agreement on the issue of dividing up Han Fu. Judging from the current situation, Chen Chu and the strategists believe that the agreement reached between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is that the Qinghe River and Gaotang in the south of Jizhou will belong to Cao Cao, while the city of Jizhou and several other counties will belong to Yuan Shao.

In fact, Chen Chu and the strategists' judgments were all wrong. But they can't be blamed, after all, the intelligence is insufficient, and it is difficult to make a correct judgment.

However, Xu Shu deduced from the current situation that since Yuan Shao could join forces with Cao Cao to destroy Han Fu, it was very likely that he would do other things, such as taking advantage of the time when the Northern Army was marching into Guanzhong, and suddenly sent troops to annex the state. According to this, Xu Shu believed that the defense of Keiguan must be strengthened, and at the same time send an envoy to meet Yuan Shao to stabilize Yuan Shao as much as possible, as long as Yuan Shao does not move, then there will be no danger in Jiguan.

Xu Shu said very reasonably, so Chen Chu sent an envoy to Yuan Shao according to Xu Shu's suggestion, and at the same time temporarily decided to divide more than half of the equipment that was originally planned to be reequipped to the Luoyang Army of Shangjun, and instead equip it to Jiguan. These new equipment not only include horizontal knives, strange knives, armor, but also a large number of steel crossbows and repeater beds that have just been successfully trial-produced, and there is also an unprecedented weapon, bomb!

However, the power of this bomb is not very large, and it must not be equated with modern bombs, and due to various reasons such as craftsmanship, the number of bombs is very limited, and the total number of bombs is less than a thousand. Chen Chu was going to give six hundred of them to Guan Yu's department in Keiguan.
