Master Overlord
Chapter 81
There are no foreign enemies in Shanghe collar. Warcraft is the only enemy in Shanghe collar, and the best way to deal with Warcraft is to attack from a distance.
Therefore, the knights on the river are all excellent longbowmen, and Lingfeng Castle lists archery as one of the most important items in Knight training.
Thorne opened the bow and arrow, and the bow bent back. For a moment of concentration, Arthur heard only a clear sound and a violent sound at the same time.
"Bang!"
Arthur immediately turned his head and looked at the stake 50 meters away. His face first showed a trace of shock. Then he immediately turned to joy and excitement, grinned and was directly happy.
These wooden stakes are used by the castle guards to practice arrows at ordinary times, and their size is slightly smaller than that of adult men. Considering that the shooting range in the castle is too small to test the performance of bows and arrows, Arthur asked the guards to move to the open space of the castle.
At this moment, under Thorne''s arrow, a wooden pile 50 meters away was directly cut off an arm sized wooden block, the wooden pile also fell to the ground, and the arrow fell to the ground 20 or 30 meters behind the wooden pile!
This
The guards looked at the fallen stake in surprise. Thorne held the bow and was also shocked.
Although the power of the bow is directly proportional to the power of the bow and arrow, it also involves the problem of energy conversion.
Although the new bow and arrow in his hand was stronger than the long bow, Thorne didn''t expect such power to directly break and knock down the wooden stakes!
At first, he thought Arthur wanted to design a bow and arrow suitable for horseback. Although he had sufficient confidence in Arthur, at first, he only thought that a short bow of this size could have the power of a medium bow or close to a long bow at most.
But after he shot an arrow himself, he clearly felt that this strange bow was much more powerful than the long bow!
Not to mention Thorne and the guards around him, even Arthur himself didn''t talk about such a situation at all.
In the age of cold weapons, bows and arrows were not intended to be the most powerful weapons.
So when he couldn''t make guns, Arthur immediately thought of bringing the technology of composite reverse bow to the world.
In his last life, he was a member of a bow and arrow shooting club. He was once very obsessed with retro bow shooting and specially learned about this traditional craft.
As Thorne thought, Arthur really just wanted to design a powerful bow and arrow suitable for riding and shooting.
It was Arthur''s whim to use Warcraft tendons and tendons instead of livestock tendons and cotton and hemp fibers.
He went to the weapon factory several times. He also saw the processed Warcraft tendons and tendons in person. He knew that they were excellent bow making materials, but he didn''t talk about the power of such finished products!
Although there are reasons why the arrow and the stake are dry when cutting down the wood block, changing the stake into a knight on horseback and guarding according to the city, I''m afraid it can directly fix people on the ground at a distance of 50 meters!
"Sir, this bow..." looking at Arthur, Thorne still hasn''t recovered.
As a knight, he naturally knows what such a bow means.
"Look at you!" Arthur looked disgusted. "What''s so surprising about this power? Come on, then experiment!"
"Yes, my Lord!"
Thorne pulled out the arrow again and aimed it at the stake 100 meters away.
With a whoosh, the bow recovered immediately.
At a glance, Arthur could not see the shadow of the arrow on the stake 100 meters away. This time, a fine arrow with strong penetration is used.
"Penetration!" in the distance, a castle guard shouted out the shooting situation.
"Try again, still use the fine arrow!" Arthur ordered directly before Thorne spoke.
"Yes, my Lord!"
Thorne''s blood is boiling now. A good weapon with an arrow is far more exciting for a knight than a stunning beauty.
……
In one hour, Thorne had shot more than 30 feather arrows, and Arthur also got satisfactory data.
In the case of no direct wind, the maximum range of the new composite reverse bow is more than 500 meters!
The farthest arrow fell to a distance of nearly 600 meters.
According to the depth of the arrow into the pile, the new reverse bow can shoot through the knight''s plate armor within 450 meters!
Within 400 meters, you can shoot and kill fully armed Knights!
Four hundred meters!
Under the condition of downwind, the farthest projection distance of traditional longbow is only so.
This is definitely a secret weapon!
Of course, this bow is not without shortcomings.
The most important disadvantage is that the strength required to open the bow is too high, which is a test of the user''s physical quality. I''m afraid it can''t be used if it''s not a fighting knight.
Secondly, the production speed is slow, and it is impossible to produce in large quantities quickly.
This is limited by Warcraft materials and manufacturing technology.
According to the data of weapon factories, the time required to make a new reverse bow is more than twice that of a general long bow.
Although the new bow had obvious shortcomings, Arthur was not particularly worried.
First, the number of fighting knights is limited. When the soldiers of the first army have enough strength to use, the required number of bows and arrows must have completed production.
Now, such a secret weapon can be used by castle guards.
Secondly, such equipment can be used as the unique weapon of Shanghe collar.
The style of bow can be imitated, but no one can get Warcraft materials except Arthur. If the manufacturing method of this new bow is regarded as an advanced technology, Lingfeng castle can always maintain its technical advantage.
After receiving the bow from Thorne, Arthur checked it again and again and found that there was no change in the bow after continuous use.
"Thorne, send the order," Arthur ordered directly. "Let the weapons factory fully produce this kind of bow and arrow. In addition, the bow needs to be improved. This is the data. Send someone to send it together."
"Yes, my Lord!"
"Also," Arthur called Thorne, who was eager to send orders, "any one of these bows should be recorded and supervised, including the Warcraft materials divided every day. In particular, the Warcraft materials should be kept confidential first, and then they must not flow out! If you are short of manpower, you can send guards from the castle. In short, the purpose is one - there should be no mistakes!"
Such a bow and arrow can be regarded as a sniper gun in the world. Arthur doesn''t want to be pierced by an arrow one day when he inspects outside the castle. It''s not clear.
We must strictly control weapons of mass destruction!
"Yes, sir!" Thorne replied loudly. "Sir, do you need a name for this bow?"
"Lord count, why don''t you name the bow yourself!"
"Yes, Lord count, you invented this bow. Please give it another name!"
The guards around warmly asked Arthur to name the bow.
Just improving the material. I didn''t invent the bow. Arthur thought.
Looking at the bow, Arthur thought and said, "since this bow is made of Warcraft materials, it''s called Warcraft bow!"
