Crossbows were primarily provided for farmers.
Of course, not everyone was issued one.
Instead, a training ground was established.
Crossbows were kept at the training ground, where farmers would visit regularly to train and then return the crossbows to their original spots before leaving.
About ten of these training grounds were estimated to be set up.
One residential area consisted of a hundred brick houses, and four or five residential areas shared a training ground, where they would go to train whenever they had the time.
Roman only provided crossbow arrows and the training ground.
As for the rest, he did not interfere.
The trainees were responsible for making their own targets, collecting the arrows, and if necessary, learning the skills to maintain and repair the crossbows.
Two policemen were dispatched to regularly check the quantity of crossbows every day.
Roman did not believe that the farmers would be hostile to this arrangement.
