Dark Fairy

Chapter 233 A Rare Opportunity

A large crossbow is different from a hand crossbow or a siege crossbow.Hand crossbows are less powerful and have a shorter range, but are more accurate, but they are also more precise and more expensive to make.The siege crossbow is powerful and can crack mountains and rocks. It has a very long range, but its accuracy is not high. It is only suitable for dealing with clusters of cavalry charges or sieges. The cost is also very high.

The big crossbow is between the two, the cost is not high, it has both accuracy and power, and it is also the most widely equipped crossbow in the army.

Ordinary leather armor cannot withstand the penetration of crossbow arrows fired by a large crossbow at the maximum killing distance of a hundred and fifty steps. Within a hundred steps, a single layer of iron-embedded leather armor will also be directly penetrated by a large crossbow.Within fifty steps, only three layers of iron-inlaid leather armor or fish-scale copper core armor can barely withstand the close range fire of a large crossbow.

This is the simplest and purest violent device, the brutal lethality brought by kinetic energy.

Bailang asked Yang Xiu to install a large crossbow, and then cooperated with the mechanical winch on the crossbow to complete the action of winding it with one hand, and then asked Yang Xiu to shoot at a stone wall he erected at a distance of less than fifteen steps. Crossbow arrows.The result is that the crossbow arrows left a small hole about an inch deep in the stone wall technique!

Even if the stone wall technique is like this, the stone armor technique may not be able to counteract the crossbow's shooting from the crossbow at a distance of more than ten steps.Unless the stone armor technique is used, one or two pieces of iron-inlaid leather armor are worn on the body, and the defense is stiffly piled up, otherwise, even the Qi practitioners in the Qi-entraining realm will never dare to charge against the crossbow formation.

Maybe Qi practitioners who have other means above the Qi-entraining realm can do it?But Bailang doesn't know that yet.

Then assemble all the big crossbows, a total of [-] crossbows, and another [-] sets of crossbow strings that can be replaced, and more than [-] crossbow arrows.

If you really want to let go, using this crossbow arrow is definitely not enough.But the craft of crossbows and arrows is not much different from that of bows and arrows. Yang Xiu said that he can buy bows and arrows and then find someone to make another crossbows and arrows himself.There won't be much difference in power.

And these thirty large crossbows are not ordinary ones that can be seen in the light.Either use cold arrows in the dark, or use them during encirclement and annihilation at specific times to ensure that no one is left alive.And the prerequisite for both uses is that the other party cannot know the existence of this batch of large crossbows.

So putting aside the hidden dangers of the big crossbow afterwards, Bailang, who is usually dangerous, feels that he can fully support it with his current strength.Even if the Qi practitioners in the late stage of Qi Entraining Realm come first, Bailang thinks it's okay.He believed in his combat power, but at the same time he didn't believe that the opponent also came with weapons.

Of course, all of Bailang's judgments must be based on the premise that the Yuzhong Zuo Army led by Liu Jianyu will not end directly. Otherwise, if he wants to meet Liu Jianyu's more than 3000 regular troops, it will be described as an egg hitting a stone It's just right, there's no room for gimmicks.

"How to prepare the sword?"

"Since you don't want to use the chamber pot as the knife, you must first avoid the hand that is holding our backs. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk, and you will still have to make wedding dresses for others in the end."

Liu Xu heard the words and asked tentatively: "The seat knife refers to Liu Jianyu?"

"That's right. Didn't you say that just now? The tension and struggle between the old and new families, we can only move around and take advantage of the situation. Otherwise, no matter which side it is, we will definitely not be able to hit it by ourselves.

Humph, this time the war in the south may not necessarily be all bad from the perspective of us.At least I had a chance to change my fate of life and death.

I just don't know if the three of them will think that Bai Lang is unnecessary or arrogant and is leading the three of them to death together? "

Zhou Dong put down the crossbow in his hand, raised his hand and said, "Zu Dao is wrong! The lives of subordinates have always been humble and worthless. It's not that they don't cherish themselves, but that they can't help themselves. Now Zuo Dao is willing to lead his brothers to fight After one fight, I will think that there is no one in the sword shop who does not follow me! I must thank you for your foresight!"

"Zhou Dong is right, that's the truth. There was no choice before, but now there is a change in the corner, who doesn't want to try to change their destiny? So you can rest assured that at least the three of us in the knife hall will definitely listen to the knife." The order will never be betrayed. The rest of the people are already in the car, and when the car is about to speed up, even if they want to get out of the car, it will be too late."

Compared with Zhou Dong's words, Liu Xu was more realistic. He didn't speculate on other people's decisions, but believed that the general trend was the same, and even if someone had two hearts, it didn't matter anymore.If the car starts to run, jumping off the car will fall to death, and the only way to survive is to stay in the car.

On the other hand, Yang Xiu has always been reticent, and followed the four words of hand in hand: follow to the death.

Only in this way could Bailang feel at ease.For this batch of ordnance in hand, there is a premise that it can be used in a solid manner, and the hidden dangers and variables that may arise internally have been temporarily resolved.

To be honest, when Bailang heard Zhou Zhonghao's "suggestion", he also had a slight hesitation in his heart.Because the method Zhou Zhonghao said is indeed feasible, as long as Bailang completely surrenders to the City Lord's Mansion, then on the premise of helping Feng Mingyuan to hold on to this situation, he may indeed be pulled.The price was to sacrifice Yang Xiu and everyone related to ordnance, including their families, young and old.

It seems that he can live and gamble.But in the end, Bailang sensibly rejected Zhou Zhonghao's proposal, which seemed "feasible", but was actually like a noose for life.

Because if Bai Lang really did what Zhou Zhonghao said, even if everything develops for the better in the end and he survives after sacrificing the names of a group of subordinates, that would destroy Bai Lang's prestige in the sword hall. It will be gone.Will he continue to kill his own people for the sake of his control in the future?Completely become a self-destructive chamber pot?

"In that case, let's discuss it carefully. Liu Jianyu's side is not yet within reach of us. If you want to move left and right, you need to have the strength to do it. So before moving left and right, there must be several tough battles to fight. Wait until we win them all. It's time for Liu Jianyu to contact us. Only then will there be a chance to move. I think Liu Jianyu will also be happy to see the results, and our chances are still not small.

The urgent thing now is to use these unexpected powers in his hands and try to exert their maximum combat power.

Yang Hongdao, you have the most experience in killing, what do you think of these big crossbows? "

Yang Xiu's mouth is stupid but her mind is not slow, and it's not something she can brag about for killing.After some calculations before, Yang Xiu already had a general idea in her heart.

So Yang Xiu replied: "Swords. These ordnance belong to the sword shop. The secret ultimate moves cannot be revealed. Moreover, the threshold for using the crossbow is low, and what is lacking is proficiency and accuracy. In this regard, waist knives are the same as street wanderers. Therefore, the subordinates think that it is best to give the big crossbow to someone with low combat power. And if it is a person with a simple relationship, it is best to be a newcomer.

For example, those newcomers who have recently been urgently recruited into the knife studio are most suitable. "
