"Is this the repeating ballista in the Jin army?" King Zuo Xian said in surprise.

In Chang'an City, he had a certain understanding of the Jin army's situation, and the crossbow chariot was a sharp weapon among the Jin army.

Guo Jia smiled and nodded: "The Liannu chariot is a weapon made by the craftsmen of the Jin State. No matter which army it is, if it confronts the Liannu chariot head-on, it will definitely fail."

From Guo Jia's words, King Zuo Xian and Prime Minister Kang Ju felt a strong sense of confidence.

"I wonder if the minister can order someone to demonstrate how to use these sharp weapons?" Kang Ju asked.

This is what King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu wanted to know. They knew too little about the Jin army. In the past, they said it was cooperation, but in fact it was not much different from fighting independently. Anyway, the Jin army did not compete with the Xiongnu and Kangju on the battlefield.

The army has experienced lian he xing dong.

This also resulted in the Xiongnu and Kangju not knowing much about the equipment of the Jin army. However, when it came to attacking the city, they knew that the Jin army was terrifying. Chigu City was definitely a fortified city, but the Jin army

However, they used strong means to directly attack Chigu City, causing a disastrous defeat for the Wusun army.

When attacking the city of Dawan, it was with the help of the Jin army that Wusun's army could advance rapidly in Dawan.

Guo Jia thought for a moment and turned his attention to Huang Zhong, "I wonder what General Huang means?"

"The matter of the continuous ballista must have been known to more people for a long time. It doesn't matter even if we let them see the power of the continuous ballista." Huang Zhong said.

After receiving Huang Zhong's order, three soldiers controlled a repeating ballista vehicle and began to perform.

Repeating crossbow riders are also extremely cautious during normal training, because crossbow arrows are relatively expensive, and the crossbow arrows of repeating crossbow riders are much thicker than the crossbow arrows in the hands of army sergeants.

If repeating crossbow riders and archers are trained as usual, it will consume a lot of supplies in the army.

The ballista was about one hundred and fifty steps away from a wall.

Seeing such a distance, Prime Minister Kang Ju and King Zuo Xian had heavy expressions on their faces. In their understanding, someone who could shoot a bow and arrow a hundred steps away could already be called a master.

Besides, if it can hit the target, such an instrument is too scary.

The Xiongnu and Kangju were not princes of the Han Dynasty. Even if they wanted to develop military power, they had to have corresponding conditions.

During the period when the Han princes were fighting, the strength of the army was rapidly improving. Under Lu Bu's stimulation, the princes tried their best to develop their military strength.

Without sufficient strength, it would be difficult to ensure the safety of the people under their rule, and they might become vassals of other princes. Such a situation is not what a prince wants to see.

The Jin army was brave and good at fighting, not only because the soldiers in the army fought fiercely, but also had a lot to do with the equipment of the army.

After vigorous development, the strength of the Jin army has been improved to a greater extent, at least when facing the Xiongnu and Kangju armies, it has absolute initiative.

The crossbow cart released the first crossbow arrow. After the first crossbow arrow was shot, the second, and third crossbow arrows, ten consecutive crossbow arrows, headed towards the wall.

Five of the crossbow arrows pierced directly into the wall, and the other five crossbow arrows fell to the ground, perhaps because of the wrong angle.

However, the power of the crossbow arrows after they collided with the wall made Prime Minister Kang Ju and King Zuo Xian unable to conceal their shock.

If they could have such a sharp weapon in their army, let alone the Wusun, they would be confident even against the Kushan Empire's army.

On the battlefield of Wusun, the Jin army had such a sharp weapon. At that time, they had only heard about it, but now that they saw it with their own eyes, the shocking feeling was even stronger.

After walking out of the military camp, the faces of Prime Minister Kang Ju and King Zuo Xian were no longer as relaxed as before, and even looked a lot heavier. They had seen powerful methods among the Jin army. What would happen if they faced the Jin army in the future?

They could foresee such consequences.

Prime Minister Kang Ju and King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu had a preliminary understanding of the strength of the Jin army, but they believed that this was definitely not the Jin army's most powerful method, because the Jin army's method of directly breaking through the city gate was not demonstrated.

However, the fierceness of the crossbow chariot still deeply attracted the Xiongnu King Zuoxian.

Although Guo Jia did not introduce the use of the serial crossbow vehicle when fighting against the enemy, what he could see was how terrible the consequences of such an instrument appearing on the battlefield would be, even if the cavalry launched a frontal charge.

If you encounter a ballista, you will also run away.

If ten crossbow bolts are fired continuously, if hundreds of crossbow vehicles appear on the battlefield, a thousand crossbow bolts will attack. Faced with such an attack, who would dare to make direct contact?

The strength of the Jin army gave the Xiongnu and Kangju envoys a preliminary understanding of the strength of the Jin army during this demonstration.

"Guo Shangshu, the crossbow chariots are really powerful. I wonder if the Huns can buy some." After Kang Ju left, King Zuo Xian did not leave.

Guo Jia shook his head and said: "The repeating ballista in the army is a top-secret weapon. If it weren't for the sake of King Zuo Xian today, I am afraid that General Huang would not be willing to let the soldiers demonstrate the power of the repeating ballista."

"As for purchasing a repeating crossbow chariot from the Holy Lord, it is too difficult. The Xiongnu and Jin have formed an alliance, but the alliance between the two parties is not stable. If such a request is made, the DPRK and China will also be unhappy.

A few officials objected," Guo Jiadao.

King Zuo Xian hurriedly said: "Shang Shu, the Xiongnu and Jin are very good friends. How can you say that our alliance is not stable enough?"

"Jia Zhongshu is responsible for receiving the envoys from the Xiongnu and Kangju. If King Zuo Xian has any questions, he can ask Jia Zhongshu." Guo Jia said in a low voice.

King Zuo Xian nodded knowingly. From Guo Jia's words, he could feel that Jia Xu's status in the Jin court was higher than Guo Jia's.

This also made King Zuo Xian determined to have a good relationship with Jia Xu, but it was also necessary to have a good relationship with Guo Jia. In Chang'an City, Guo Jia had given him a lot of help.

Although Guo Jia also obtained a lot of benefits from him, these things were taken for granted by King Zuo Xian.

As for using this matter to blackmail Guo Jia, it is definitely not a wise move, because Guo Jia has a very high status in the Jin State, and Guo Jia and the current emperor of the Jin State are sworn brothers, so where is this relationship?

Put it aside, it is very difficult to influence Guo Jia more through this matter.

What is most likely to bring about is Guo Jia's anger. In the future, it will be more difficult for the Xiongnu to cooperate with Jin.
