Ye Xi continued to improve the catapult.


    He installed brass racks on both sides of the crossbeam of the catapult, which made the catapult more efficient and could adjust the throwing force to obtain the required range. In addition, he designed a set of gears and chains to make the preparation and loading of catapults semi-automatic.


    The problem of slow firing of catapults has been completely solved.


    After the development of catapults came to an end, Xicheng began to manufacture large-scale catapults and bronze spears, set up catapult teams, and trained ordinary people who could not become soldiers to become catapults.


    Two months later.


    In a slightly hot and dry day, the catapult officially appeared in front of all the people of Xicheng.


    The catapults strode through the crowd carrying the parts of the catapult with their heads held high. They went straight to the side of the towering wall and climbed to the top of the wall along the stone ladder at the edge of the wall.


    Along the way, many Xicheng soldiers were attracted by their movements and followed them all the way.


    Strong soldiers rely on the ability to jump, and jump directly to the city wall.


    Regardless of the curious eyes of the people, the catapults busily and skillfully assembled the catapults.


    The torch of the tribe of Ganqi looked at it for a while, and found the Pingyao that was helping. He pulled it over and asked, "what are you doing?"


    Pingyao was in a good mood today, and he didn''t sell the key. He said with a smile: "we are assembling catapults. Do you know? These guys can shoot spears out


    "Catapult?" The torch''s eyes lit up, "crossbow, I know, there is a crossbow team in Tushan. I''ve seen their training. The arrows are accurate and hard, but the arrows are small and can''t play a big role."


    "Is your catapult similar to Tu Shan''s? Just a spear? "


    Pingyao didn''t expect that he could quickly think of crossbow and arrow, so he took an unexpected look at him.


    "Yes, the catapult is similar to the crossbow."


    The torch''s eyes were more interested, and his eyes were like firecrackers sweeping over the huge bronze spears scattered on the ground. In his heart, these huge spears were as thick as his arms, and longer than two big men stacked together. How powerful should the catapult guy throw such a huge spear out?


    The torch heart is itchy, build the shoulder cover of Pingyao and say: "how about giving me a catapult? I don''t want you for nothing. I''ll give you a fierce nuclear exchange! "


    Pingyao threw the torch''s arm away: "this catapult doesn''t belong to me. I don''t have the right to exchange it with you. Besides, we set up a special catapult team, and all the catapults belong."


    Torch is not willing to: "catapult team, when was established, how do I not know, their strength can have me big?"


    Pingyao a smile: "these people who are assembling catapults are catapults. Do you want to compare strength with them?"


    Torch frowned.


    Most of the people who assemble the catapults are ordinary people, even middle-aged men or middle-aged women who have lost their reproductive function, or disabled people who lack arms and legs. They do not even have a strong man.


    Because they are not strong enough, they may not be able to endure the pain of the soldiers'' awakening. Therefore, they are not qualified to become reserve soldiers. They usually rely on grinding stone tools or doing some other piecemeal work subsidies. They are the bottom of the common people in Xi City.


    And the catapult team is made up of such ordinary people?


    Isn''t it a joke to choose such a man to control such a powerful weapon?


    It''s a waste, too bad!


    the torch has a bad temper and wants to get angry on the spot. He is afraid that there are ordinary people in front of him, and he stifles it: "it''s too bad Since it''s a catapult team, what about the captain? Who''s the captain? I''ll talk to him. "


    Pingyao raised his head toward the front: "here, it''s him, Xiuyang of Liao tribe."


    Torch along his line of sight angrily looked at the past, and then the whole person solidified in place.


    What did he see.


    …… An old man with gray hair?


    Ju:.... "


    Without saying a word, he turned to the wall.


    Pingyao seized him conditionally: "what''s the matter?"


    Torch turned his eyes to the sky: "go, go to the arena training."


    The catapult team is made up of such a group of old, weak, sick and disabled. It''s just like this. It''s a waste of time to stay here. It''s better to spend more time training.


    "Are you sure?" Pingyao raised his eyebrows and said, "this catapult was invented by master Xiwu."


    After a moment of torching, he turned around,


    "invented by master Xiwu?"


    He changed his attitude in an instant: "let''s have a look."


    Ye Xi has such a magic power in the hearts of Xicheng people. All people, especially those in Heiji mountains and nuhe River Valley who migrated with him, almost blindly trust ye Xi.


    Pingyao didn''t laugh at him. He only said, "I''m in a good mood today. I''ll leave you here. If I''m normal, I''ll ignore you and let you regret it!"


    "What''s more, I''d like to send you a message. Lord Xiwu has taken our potters to the grassland..."


    Before he had finished speaking, there was a loud cry around him."Look at the sky!"


    "Master Xiwu, it is Lord Xiwu who has come back!"


    "Ah, Zhuo, the warlord of Xiwu, is very aggressive..."


    Pingyao and Ju looked up.


    In the light blue sky, there is a gorgeous purple red, which expands rapidly. With a gust of wind that seems to set off people, Zhuo, a kind of wild relic, stops gracefully on the wall.


    Ye Xi jumped from the top of Zhuo.


    "Master Xiwu!"


    At this moment, both the people who are assembling the catapult and the soldiers watching are respectfully saluting.


    Ye Xi nodded with a smile.


    The next moment, three heads of the same huge Liyang birds fly straight to the city wall, and the people retreat in a hurry to make room for them to land.


    Burning, red desert and big fire jump from Liyang bird.


    In addition to Dayan, their faces are very smelly, looking at Ye Xi''s eyes are very bad.


    He spat on the ground and scolded: "Stinky boy, he''s in charge..."


    Because their task is to ensure the safety of Zhuo, every time ye Xi rides Zhuo to leave, they have to follow behind to protect Ye Xi''s safety in disguise and become his follower.


    The leader of the senior hunting team of the super big tribe, nestled in the small Xi City, was taken aback by his words.


    Pingyao went to Ye Xi: "master Xiwu, have you found the beast?"


    Ye Xi nodded his head: "we found several variation hammernose thunder beasts in the grassland, which will lead them to you by your people."


    Pingyao rubbed his hands.


    He knew that it was about the same size as the grey elephant, but how big would the variant hammernose thunder beast be? I''m looking forward to it!


    "Ah..."


    Red desert sends out a sneer.


    All of them looked back at the past with contempt.


    They went to the grassland with Ye Xi just now, so they can clearly see what a huge and mutated beast Xicheng people are provoking. If we don''t stop those mutant hammernosed thunder beasts in time, they will definitely break down the towering wall under their feet and break into the city.


    At that time, Xicheng must have suffered heavy losses.


    It''s crazy.
