But Chu Yue couldn't tell that to anyone.
For the next few days, there was nothing strange that they did. Aside from some talk about the condition in Da Yi City and also the few plans about the future war, the two of them never talked about anything strange.
Thus, the other commanders only thought that their general was thinking about talking more to get second opinion.
After all, many of them were not that smart.
*cough*
Soon enough, they reached Da Yi City.
Looking at the city wall, Long Qian Xing sighed deeply. The past few days were not enough for him to spend with his little fiancée. He still wanted to spend a bit more time to know more about her.
"Adjutant Nan, where do you plan to go?" Long Qian Xing asked.
"I'm going to pay a visit to Blacksmith Duan to talk about some matters." Nan Hua recalled the traps that she saw in the palace back then. She had drawn some of them and wanted to ask Duan Shang Shao, the blacksmith in Da Yi City, to replicate it in accordance to her instruction.
"I see." Long Qian Xing nodded. He thought for a moment before saying, "I'm going to pay a short visit to General Duan before departing to the frontline. I hope we will be able to meet again in the future."
He actually hoped that he would be able to spend more time with Nan Hua. But he also knew that with the upcoming troubles in this areas, it would be better for him to take care of the people here.
Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and nodded.
The two of them didn't talk anymore as they entered Da Yi City and went their separate ways.
Chu Yue was watching the two of them from behind and felt that their mentality was really good. Even though they had only spent a very short time together, they didn't show their unwillingness in front of other people.
Even she couldn't sense it in the slightest bit.
Nan Hua walked through the road towards the area for blacksmith. It didn't take long for her to reach Duan Shang Shao's Workshop. As a man who loved to make weapon, Duan Shang Shao was still working hard from morning to night working at the workshop.
An apprentice spotted Nan Hua as soon as she came and walked forward. "This young master, is there someone here whom you're looking for?"
Hearing the careful tone, Nan Hua glanced at the apprentice and replied, "I'm looking for Blacksmith Duan."
"I'll call Master." The apprentice bowed and retreated before rushing towards Duan Shang Shao who was not far away.
Watching their action, Nan Hua's eyes flickered slightly. That was not the action of a commoner but rather that of a noble family's servants. There was no way that ordinary people would be able to be trained to that kind of movement.
Did Duan Shang Shao also recruited his own servants to work as his apprentice?
Or did they come from other noble families?
Duan Shang Shao heard the news and walked forward. When he saw Nan Hua, he was stunned. "Adjutant Nan, it has been a while since the last time I saw you. The prototype had been made, but the performance is not up to par."
"Would it take a long time?"
"There are a lot of big parts which required a lot of people to make and I can't do it myself." Duan Shang Shao looked a bit embarrassed. It was not easy to make weapon and he felt that he was not doing well when Nan Hua looked in his direction like this.
"It's fine. I come here to see the progress and also to talk about some other matters."
"This is not the place to talk, please come with me, Adjutant Nan." Duan Shang Shao then brought Nan Hua to his personal workshop and explained the progress of the catapult. It was also mixed with wood materials, which was one of the reasons why it took a long time.
After all, if it was all made with metal, it would be very heavy and Nan Hua also didn't dare to use the modern design. She didn't want to destroy the balance of this world by advancing the invention far earlier than it was supposed to be.
Duan Shang Shao explained some things and then Nan Hua brought out the few traps design that she had with her. There were only a few of them who were quite complicated but she wanted to promote the use.
"These are quite complicated to make." Duan Shang Shao frowned when he looked at it. "But if it can be used, it can be used for live saving."
Nan Hua nodded. "How long do you think it will take to make it?"
"Perhaps a month since I still also need to work on other parts." Duan Shang Shao recalled the other things he had to do. Even though he spent most of this time working on the order from Nan Hua, there were some parts that would require special equipment if it was to be mass produced.
The preparation alone would take a long time for the first time.
"I'll send Xiao Chu to take it in the future," Nan Hua said while pointing to Chu Yue.
"I understand." Duan Shang Shao nodded. "Is there anything else that I need to do, Adjutant Nan?"
Nan Hua thought about it and then decided to arrange the use of these catapult first. "About the catapult…"
…
While Nan Hua was discussing with Duan Shang Shao, Long Qian Xing headed to another location and found General Duan. During these times, General Duan was behaving very well and didn't even do anything aside from resting in his residence.
When he heard that Long Qian Xing came, he directly came forward to welcome the young man.
"Young Commander Long… I mean, General Xing, this old general welcome you to my humble residence," General Duan quickly came and greeted Long Qian Xing.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
