Chapter 45: The Bronze Giant Crossbow

I was stunned for a moment, I thought I was dazzled, hallucinated, and was about to call the cold bench, as soon as I turned my God, I saw hundreds of bronze war horses turning their buttocks one after another, the horse's head was in our direction, the front hooves were raised, a long neigh, and the nose was humming with green smoke, as if it was about to jump up at any time.

The wolf smoke rolled up to us almost in the next second, and I choked on the cold bench and had to take several steps back, my face, nostrils, and mouth were full of dirt, sifting, and my body was already dehydrated, but now it was even drier, and I couldn't even swallow the spit.

I barely opened my eyes and looked out through my fingers, and in the depths of the wolf smoke, the samurai seemed to be jumping on horseback, and the few men who were leading the way were already waving their weapons and driving towards the depths of the canyon. I hurriedly took a few more steps back to the side to make way for them, until my back was completely against the stone, and I shouted to the cold bench, "Damn...... Where did all these people come from? ”

The sound of the wind, the hooves of horses, and the shouts of soldiers exploded, and it was a long time before I heard the voice of the cold bench coming from it: "They are not people, they are armor!" Now the situation is unknown, so we'd better not move until they pass! ”

I was stunned for a moment, and I hurriedly looked at it a few more times, and sure enough, those soldiers didn't have faces, as if they were really the armor we saw before, and these war horses were not real horses, they were the bronze vests that I had just jumped on with the cold bench!

I was really puzzled, how could this be? This is real life, and it's not a science fiction movie, which is simply against science.

At this moment, my eyes lit up, and I suddenly saw a soldier galloping past me on a war horse with the bronze sword engraved with a monkey carved on it. My mind moved, thinking that my little broken shop pointed to this monkey sword to come back to life and shine on the lintel, my brain was hot, and I didn't care about it, I turned over and rolled out, the cold bench was stunned, and I wanted to stop me but didn't stop: "Qianyi, what are you doing!" ”

As I ran after the soldier's horse, thinking of an opportunity to jump on it, I cried out with my neck bared, "Leave it alone, I'll get something and come back." "One mouth, immediately ate a mouthful of soil.

I don't think it's a way to go on like this, how can a two-legged one outrun a four-legged one? Besides, the ground was kicked by horses' hooves, and I ran almost half-closed all the way, and my face was scraped with a layer of hula, probably thicker than my skin. The most uncomfortable thing is the nose, the loess is blocked inside, and there is no gas at all, but a mouth, the wind blows, and it is all eaten into the mouth, blocked behind the root of the tongue, and it is even more fucking uncomfortable!

However, this is not the most fatal, the most fatal thing is that I am a flesh and blood, jumping in the iron hooves of thousands of galloping horses, and if I am not careful, the monkey sword is not obtained, and I myself will go to see Marx first.

Thinking about it, I twisted my head from side to side, looking for an opportunity, and I saw an unpiloted air war horse emerging from my left rear, and I shouted in my heart "Hello! With a hard scurry, his feet kicked the ground hard, and he turned over on the horse, and immediately felt that his vision was much clearer. I snorted and snorted two cylindrical pieces of mud, and I breathed well.

This war horse seems to be very spiritual, although it has no reins, but it runs wherever I think in my heart, it is really worthy of being a divine object for more than 2,000 years! I hurriedly said, "Good man, go and help me catch up with the person who danced the sword in front of me!" ”

The horse immediately neighed, and as if understanding, it quickly approached the soldier, and in the blink of an eye, it was at the soldier's side. At this time, I suddenly felt a chill on the back of my neck, as if a strong wind was blowing from the back of my neck, I immediately bent down, both hands around the horse's neck, at this time, the wind above my head swept away, and when I looked, a small handful of black hair fell in front of me.

I was shocked, and suddenly felt a tingling in my scalp, if it wasn't for Lao Tzu's quick reaction, it would have been cut off, but it was not just hair. The soldier was still holding the bronze sword in a circle above his head as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and I saw that the next wave was about to hit me again, and it was an opportunity to move his wrist and prepare to snatch love with a horizontal sword.

Just as the blade of the monkey sword swept towards me, I was about to reach for it, when the bronze sword suddenly cracked into countless fine pieces of copper like dust! I was stunned, and before I could react, the copper dust fell on the back of my hand, and immediately burned a large piece of flesh.

I was so frightened that I didn't care about crying out for pain, so I hurriedly rubbed the back of my hand on my clothes to extinguish the fire, but fortunately, there were not many copper chips, and it only burned to my wrist and stopped. At this time, I vaguely heard the sound of fighting from behind, and when I looked up, I saw that the cold bench was hanging upside down on the horse's belly with his legs between his legs, and it looked very difficult, as if he might accidentally fall down at any time and be trampled by the galloping iron hooves. At this time, on horseback, it was none other than the thousand-year-old corpse we worshiped just now.

The dried corpse was only one meter five or six in size, hunched over, standing on horseback on one foot, and its appearance and demeanor were very similar to a kind of animal-monkey, and it also had a bronze weapon three or four centimeters higher than him on its left arm.

The crossbow is a very important cold weapon in ancient warfare, which is simple to operate, has a very high hit rate, and its lethality is much stronger than that of ordinary bows and arrows, with a maximum range of six or seven hundred meters, and some extra-large bed crossbows can even reach thousands of meters. The effect is similar to that of a pistol in the current sense.

I ran too fast with the cold bench before, and these weapons were all flashing, and I had only heard about them in the news before, and I had never seen them with my own eyes. The bronze crossbow is very well made, but due to the limited light and the distance, I can only get a rough idea.

Its crossbow arm is a slender unicorn beast, vaguely visible on the scale lines, a bit like the pattern of the Olympic auspicious clouds, the head of the beast just happened to hold the crossbow at the mouth, so that the bow and arrow from the mouth of the unicorn, by the divine power of the beast, meaning invincible, invincible; The arrow is connected to the crossbow machine at the rear, and the setting of the crossbow machine is more ingenious, the unicorn swings its tail, the tail is the upper lookout mountain (sight), the horse steps on the flying swallow, and the hind hooves are the lower hanging knife (trigger).

According to historical records, the copper crossbow once unearthed in the No. 1 copper carriage of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is also the bronze body of the beast's head, with an arm length of 39.2 centimeters, which was converted into a practical crossbow according to the ratio of one to two at that time, that is, seventy-eight .4 centimeters, which is less than half the length of this one. Moreover, the manpower and material resources at that time were limited, and if you wanted to use this kind of giant crossbow in battle, you had to rely on the assistance of the bow bearer, and the manpower could not bear the weight at all, and it did not have the function of continuous fire, but this giant crossbow was obviously different.
