478: Chapter 478 Zhao Fusu Offers Another Strategy

After Li Si received the message sent via carrier pigeon from Zhao Fusu, he immediately convened a national conference to hold a discussion.

The officials sat around a massive conference table, expressing their own opinions and debating fiercely; after several hours of repeated deliberation and revision, a comprehensive set of regulations was finally formed.

This included procedures for the registration of merchant caravans, the registration of caravan guards, and the acquisition of relevant permits.

Subsequently, these regulations, which condensed the wisdom and efforts of everyone, were solemnly published in the Great Qin Empire Weekly.

As the Great Qin Empire Weekly was distributed in large quantities, more and more people learned about the matter.

Many people just treated it as news and did not take it to heart.

But for those with ulterior motives, they immediately took note of these regulations.

Xiang Liang's subordinates delivered this issue of the Great Qin Empire Weekly to him immediately.

"It really came out!"

Xiang Liang had not expected Great Qin to act so quickly, and he immediately summoned the members of the Huaxia Pioneer Group to hold a meeting.

This time, Zhao Fusu sat in the center position.

It was not that he wanted to sit there, but rather the other members of the Pioneer Group had unanimously insisted that he sit there.

After seeing this, although Xiang Liang was unwilling, he did not dare to incur the wrath of the crowd and could only tacitly allow Zhao Fusu to sit in the center position.

"Everyone, take a look at the Newspaper."

After everyone sat down, Xiang Liang passed the Newspaper around for everyone to read.

Upon seeing the report in the Newspaper that the Great Qin authorities encouraged the formation of caravan guard units, everyone was stunned at first, followed by an outburst of enthusiastic cheers.

The faces of the Huaxia Pioneer Group members were beaming with irrepressible joy.

King Qian of Zhao said happily: "In this way, the large batch of bronze swords in my hands can be taken out of the pass openly and aboveboard through the caravan guard units!"

"Not only that!"

Zhao Fusu spoke up again.

Hearing this big shot speak, everyone turned their eyes toward him.

This included Xiang Liang.

Zhao Fusu offered another strategy: "We can also dismantle the powerful crossbows into components, mix them into the cargo, transport them outside the border, and then reassemble them."

"That's right!"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Transporting the entire powerful crossbow directly would be too conspicuous and too easy to attract attention.

But if they were packed as components and reassembled after reaching outside the borders of Great Qin, the probability of being discovered would be greatly reduced.

The reason why the State of Qin was able to suppress the Six States was that they possessed an extremely powerful crossbow unit.

Since the crossbow is an energy-storing weapon, they could use their feet to assist in cocking the crossbow in advance.

When it was time to attack, they only needed to pull the trigger.

This unique design endowed the crossbow with many significant advantages, giving it an incomparable status on the battlefield.

Compared to bows and arrows, the operation of a crossbow was relatively simple.

Even if the user had not undergone long-term professional training, they could master basic shooting techniques in a relatively short time.

Unlike traditional bows, which required the archer to possess great arm strength and exquisite skills to accurately hit the target.

Although the method of cocking a crossbow using foot strength seemed complicated, it was easy to get the hang of after practicing a few times.

This meant that in an emergency, ordinary people or even temporarily conscripted soldiers could quickly pick up a crossbow and join the battle, greatly expanding the source of military strength.

Secondly, the shooting accuracy of the crossbow was extremely high.

At the moment the trigger was pulled to fire, the crossbow body remained relatively stable, reducing the impact of human factors on shooting accuracy.

Crossbows were also usually equipped with aiming devices, whether it was a simple front sight or a more complex graduated aiming system, all of which could help the user lock onto the target more accurately.
