Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Eighty Eight Crossbows


The strength of the ancient longbow is divided into stones. The heavier the bow, the longer the shooting range and the greater the lethality. But there are only a handful of people who can draw a long bow of more than three stones.

The method used to measure the bow’s strength is also very simple. Hang a longbow naturally on the wall, and then begin to hang heavy objects on the bowstrings. When the bow is hung like a full moon, the weight of the heavy objects , Is the strength of this bow.

And what Heifang Changzhi now holds in his hand is a three-stone longbow similar to Xue Rengui. It is difficult for ordinary people to pull such a powerful bow to the full, let alone hit a wooden stake a hundred steps away.

Heifang Changzhi naturally has its own uniqueness. He held his breath with concentration. The three stone bows were placed on the arrows, slowly pulled apart, and carefully aimed at them. Then they let go, and the arrows left a shadow in the air. , With a "bang", it accurately hit the stake, and the tail of the arrow still made a trembling sound after being nailed into the stake because of the powerful force.

"Awesome." Li Hong said excitedly.

Li Zhi, even the emperor, naturally had to be more reserved, but Hei Chi Changzhi, who rushed towards him with a smile, nodded.

All the courtiers immediately began to talk about it. These hundred steps to wear Yang Shu are no less than Xue Rengui, and even better than Xue Rengui.

"Hey, ah, be quiet, let's, Dai Shangshu, you lean aside, don't stand in the direction of the wooden stake." Li Hong immediately shouted as everyone talked.

"What do you want to do?" Li Zhi asked, turning his head.

"You can't let a stick be in the limelight, don't frustrate his spirit, thinking I have no one in the Tang Dynasty. Cheetah, are you ready? You can see how your son will subdue him." Li Hong asked the cheetah behind him. .

The cheetah bowed and gestured, it's okay. Only then did he take a black lacquer in his hand and a crossbow made of hundred-smelting steel all over his body from Yangwu's hand.

Li Zhi looked at the crossbow in Cheetah's hand. Although it was similar in appearance to Datang's crossbow, it looked like a gloomy feeling. A silent murderous intent was silently emitted from the crossbow. Opening, people can't help feeling a chill.

It's no wonder that after the little thing came over, he actually asked Yang Wu to check the crossbow he had brought. I'm afraid that if he doesn't take the initiative to check Yang Wu, Yang Wu will protect himself after he takes it out the first time. After all, this crossbow looks like a killer weapon.

At that time, I was still strange. Little things usually brought flowers to the Menglai Palace, and seldom brought cheetahs and other eunuchs. At first, I didn't think much about it. It turned out that little things came with cheetahs prepared.

"Your Majesty, where do the slaves and servants shoot?" The cheetah asked with a bow, and the front of the crossbow pointed at his feet.

"Right here, it seems that the distance is a lot farther than the stick, right? Just let the father check it up close." Li Hong leaned on the railing and said relaxedly, looking at the stake.

The ministers and Heifang Changzhi, after hearing Li Hong's yelling, couldn't help but follow Li Hong's sign and let go. Looking at the **** behind Li Hong at this moment, suddenly a dark and icy crossbow came out. For some reason, looking at the crossbow, he felt a burst of killing intent.

Heifang Changzhi is even more solemn, staring closely at the black crossbow. He feels that the crossbow is like a cold and cruel viper, ready to strike him a fatal blow.

The cheetah pulled out an arrow behind it. After the pulley and winch had been skillfully used by Taiyi City, the bow and crossbow, which reached five stone or even heavier, were picked up by two lawless lunatics.

Such a heavy crossbow, for lawlessness, is simply a good weapon to kill people hidden in the dark. It is not as ghostly as a ghost. Even if it is missed, it is difficult for the enemy to find its position.

After all, the range of this crossbow is too far, far beyond the range of people's understanding of the range of the crossbow.

The winch wrench behind the crossbow, under the skillful agitation of the cheetah, drove the pulley to slowly retreat, a dark arrow stuck in the arrow slot, and with the movement of the winch, it retreated with the bowstring, forming With huge tension, looking at the bowstring, it seemed that it would burst in the next moment.

The pitch-black bow and crossbow exudes a silent but strong murderous aura, even Li Zhi frowns when he looks at it.

The whole body of Yang Wu on the side is in a state of vigilance, standing under his feet, if something happens, he can stand in front of His Majesty for the first time.

The ministers under the steps are more uncomfortable than Li Zhi. After all, what they are facing at this moment is the black hole of the arrow and the cold murderous intent, and the invisible strong killing intent makes the courtiers involuntarily go back. Take a few steps back on both sides.

Only Li Hong was the only one in the martial arts field with a relaxed expression. He looked at Yang Wu's dignified look, then smiled and said, "Yang Wu, put away your guarded virtues, and learn how to do this bow and crossbow. Use it. From now on, there will be one secret whistle in the palace, but as for who to match, you have to think about it."

The arm strength of these martial arts masters like the cheetah is naturally not incomparable to ordinary people, not to mention that this crossbow has been deliberately exercised.

As everyone was looking at the crossbow in the cheetah's hand, they saw a light noise in their ears, arrows that were difficult to catch with the naked eye, and disappeared in everyone's sight.

"Boom...pop." With a sound, this sound is much louder than the sound of Changzhi Heifang hitting the stake just now, as if it were a small thunder, at least one hundred and fifty steps away. The pile, after being hit by an arrow, exploded directly, and sawdust flew away.

Looking at this scene, everyone changed their colors, their faces were terrified, it was terrible! At such a long distance, it was able to penetrate through the wooden stakes. I am afraid that 200 steps are not its limit.

Li Zhi's expression was also shocked, and his heart was even more provoked by huge waves. I am afraid that as long as such a weapon is shot, it will be difficult to survive. Moreover, the distance is so far, but the speed is like lightning, so Human defense is hard to defend.

The expressions of the crowd were clearly seen by Li Hong. He knew that this thing can only be arranged in the palace, and it is definitely a qualitative increase in the security level of the palace. As for who to ration, this is not his consideration, it is the father. Worried.

Yang Wu looked at the pile of sawdust flying around, and he came over in astonishment, and blurted out before his eyes: "Really?"

"Nonsense, did I lie to you?"

"Little things, how much do you plan to sell one to the emperor father?" Li Zhi asked with a sneer.

Little Bunny said that he was going to give Black Tooth a lot of power. In his opinion, it was more like selling this killer to the palace. This is a trick of two birds. The little Bunny is really slippery.

"One thousand taels of silver. Um... there are only one hundred in total, and there are no more. This should not be too much."

"Bang" Li Zhi kicked Li Hong's ass, looking at someone who was still laughing treacherously, and was very uncomfortable. He gave another slap again. Then he said angrily: "Little bastard, you think Can your father be killed? How much money does this one hundred get? You want to use silver to build a palace?"

Li Zhi believes what Li Hong said, one hundred is one hundred, and there will never be one more or one less. He also believes that Li Hong will not hide it privately. The **** wants to recommend it to him completely, buying and selling it.

If you don’t buy it, who knows what the **** can do with this thing? I’m not sure one day the bull's temper will come up. With such a crossbow, he will kill Wushun or Helanmin. Now, it is not impossible!

But the little bastard's heart is too dark. This one hundred is a hundred thousand taels of silver. He is in charge of the household now, why does he need so much money? What does he want money for? Isn't his Taiyi City his pocketbook? Why are you still looking for money like this?

Li Zhi ignored the horrified expressions of courtiers and Heifang, and fell into his thoughts, thinking hard, and finally came to the conclusion: No, someday I need to go to his Taiyi City and look at this little bunny. What are you doing? After so many years, he hasn't been there yet.

Everyone gradually reacted. Heifang Changzhi was watching the cheetah who was teaching Yangwu, and saluted: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, although this bow and crossbow is powerful, it seems to be wound very slowly, not as long as these three stones. The bow is practical."

Li Hong laughed, his carefully planned sales advertisement could just ruin you?

"Horse, crossbow, Moknife, crossbow, longbow, and crossbow, each has its own uses. Crossbows are suitable for siege, but it is extremely inconvenient to move. This crossbow can be used for siege. You can also assault the leader of the enemy army, think about your stick king... I don’t understand, think about you King Baekje, standing in the crowd, I am lurking in a certain corner ~ IndoMTL.com~ Li Hong did not go on to say, he I believe Heifang Changzhi can imagine how their stick king will end up with this crossbow.

Looking at Heifang Changzhi’s extremely unconvincing face after finishing talking, Li Hong smiled happily, temporarily putting his business with Li Zhi aside, anyway, this business, the father doesn’t have to buy it. If you buy, you have to buy. Now the price is worse.

"Not convinced? Then I will compare with you? Of course, I don't need this crossbow, but the small crossbow in my hand. Try to see if your longbow is powerful, or mine is domineering. "Li Hong said as he took off a cloth pocket from his waist, and threw it to Yang Wu without looking.

Yang Wu took the cloth pocket and opened it to look at the contents. There were two chic crossbows the size of an adult's palm. Six small arrows were pinned to the sides of the cloth pocket.

Heifang Changzhi looked at Li Hong and nodded solemnly. If a captured person wants to be valued by others, he naturally needs to use his own skills to make people feel that you are valuable and used.

All these black teeth always have a mirror in his heart. Therefore, in addition to his respectful attitude towards the Tang royal family, he must also spare no effort to display his strength. Only by showing his greatest talent, can he be Tang got a place.

Next, under Li Hong’s signal, several wooden stakes were erected not far away. Li Hong also took his cloth pocket from Yangwu’s hand, slowly walked down the steps, and said: "Longbow With the advantage of the longbow, then I will compare you with the biggest advantage of the longbow. How far is its most lethal range?"

(ps: Are you tired of selling cuteness? But fortunately, these are about to end. I forgot to say a word, now I will add it, I don’t know if you can still see it, that’s through this chapter 88 I wish everyone a happy mood, good luck, great fortune, and prosperity.)
