The reason why the heads of these scarecrows all seemed to have been chopped off and disappeared mysteriously was because the crossbows modified by Lu Yun had extremely powerful lethality!
Those ordinary bows and crossbows are no match at all.
So the ordinary crossbow only hit the scarecrow's head.
However, the crossbow he modified could even carry off the scarecrow's entire head with the powerful impact...
Seeing this astonishing scene, all the ministers on the parade ground, as well as General Xiao He and his men, were shocked.
What is going on!
My goodness, the heads of those scarecrows were shot off by crossbows!
It's incredible.
"This..." General Xiao He widened his eyes, as if he was dreaming.
He quickly asked, "Eunuch Lu, why did this happen?"
"Is this really the power displayed by the crossbow you modified?"
Lu Yun had a very proud look on his face, his hands behind his back, and proudly said, "This crossbow was indeed modified by me."
"Didn't you all just disbelieve me? You thought I was just trying to attract attention."
"I wonder what you think now that you see this scene?"
"Do you still think that the crossbow I modified is not good enough?"
At this moment, they were all silent and didn't say anything.
Yang Zhong was naturally indignant, but he was speechless. He thought he had a sure victory, but he didn't expect that the bow and crossbow modified by this guy was so powerful.
How could a mere eunuch know all this? Could it be that he was truly a rare talent?
Is it just because his identity as a eunuch overshadows his talent?
Yang Zhong waved his sleeves and said angrily, "It was just luck. Your crossbow..."
"Okay, I admit that your crossbow is indeed very powerful. If you have such a powerful weapon when you are fighting in battle, it will definitely suppress the enemy."
"It seems that this matter must be reported to His Majesty so that His Majesty can make a decision as soon as possible."
"Alright! You've won both of the previous two competitions!"
"Eunuch Lu, the truth is true. I didn't expect you to win the first two competitions, but this last one is the most crucial."
"The battlefield is ever-changing. Talking about war on paper or relying on a sense of bravery will only lead to tragic deaths for soldiers and the demise of the army."
"So do you understand now?"
Lu Yun smiled softly and said, "Prime Minister Yang, what's the point of saying so much? We haven't even started the competition yet, do you think I will definitely lose?"
"Isn't this... too much of a disregard for me?"
"So, Eunuch Lu, you mean to say that you have read a lot of military books?"
Lu Yun quickly shook his head, "No, I didn't say that."
"Okay, let's go to the tent!"
“…”
Meanwhile, at the palace.
In Taihe Palace, Liang Jing was sitting on the dragon throne, anxiously waiting for the result of this competition. He didn't know if Lu Yun could do it?
If we can win one game, it means we still have a chance of winning. If we can win two games,
That means Lu Yun definitely has the ability to command a war, if he wins all three battles!
That means that the person I chose this time was right, and he will definitely shut up those aggressive ministers.
Liang Jing was also looking forward to Lu Yun giving him a surprise.
After a while, the eunuch Liu Gonggong came trotting over, holding a letter delivered by carrier pigeon, "Your Majesty, there is news."
"Quick, read it to me."
Eunuch Liu nodded, unfolded the letter, and said, "Your Majesty, it says that Eunuch Lu has already defeated the soldiers led by General Xiao He in the first competition."
"So he wins this first game!"
After hearing this, Liang Jing woke up instantly and was also very surprised. What was going on?
This...this...
Did you win the first competition?
"Great! Xiao Yunzi didn't lie to me. He really does have this ability, but he just keeps it under wraps."
"Hahaha!"
"Okay, then as long as he can win one more competition, I will be able to protect him. If he can win all of them, I will definitely reward him."
After a while, news came from the military camp again.
After Liang Jing received the message, she immediately unfolded it and took a look. Suddenly, she excitedly slammed the table.
"Good! That's great!"
"I didn't expect that the crossbow Xiao Yunzi modified is so powerful. It seems that it will become a permanent part of our army in the future."
Liang Jing could never have imagined that Lu Yun would win the second match so easily.
Is he really a talented person who can lead troops in battle?
How come I never noticed it before?
This time, I really found a treasure! Liang Jing was also looking forward to the results of the third competition. As long as he won the third competition, Lu Yun would become the general of this expedition.
A eunuch serving as the commander-in-chief of an expedition, this seems to have never happened before in the entire continent, there is no such precedent.
But so what?
As long as he has the ability, he will be reused no matter what his identity is.
"Eunuch Liu, immediately summon all the craftsmen from the capital to the military camp to modify the crossbows in the camp."
"We must do everything we can to successfully transform all of these crossbows!"
Liang Jing seemed to have seen the hope of victory, because he knew that as long as he had this crossbow, what would the enemy be?
Isn’t it easy?
…
The main camp of the Tiger Guards.
Lu Yun and General Xiao He were sitting in two tents respectively. Neither of them knew what was happening on the battlefield and could only analyze the situation based on the intelligence received from their subordinates.
In a tent between the two men was the sand table for their battle.
This simulated scaled-down sandbox is controlled by real people who will give different instructions to simulate a real battlefield.
At this moment, all the civil and military ministers in the court gathered in this tent. They had a first-hand perspective and could see all the changes on the battlefield.
In fact, it is just like playing chess, except that both players are not there. They just imagine the scene based on the reports from their subordinates.
Yang Zhong sneered at this moment, "He's just a eunuch, nothing to worry about."
"Today I will let you know what a real battlefield is like. General Xiao He will definitely beat you until you cry for your parents."
Yang Zhong believed that General Xiao He was experienced after all and often did this kind of thing, so he had more say.
Even with minimal losses of troops, the enemy army can be completely annihilated, allowing the outcome of the battle to be decided.
"Yes, Left Prime Minister, no matter how powerful Eunuch Lu is, he is just a eunuch."
"He's nothing to be feared! I think General Xiao He will win easily."
"Yeah, he's just a eunuch who has never been on the battlefield. He's no match for me."
