Chapter 165: Vibrant, Heavenly Daochang
Then, ten men tied up their horses, put their tubes against their shoulders, aimed at the planks in front of them, and shouted in a loud voice that they were ready. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In each barrel is fifty arrowheads, in order to save space and not waste strength, the arrow is not like the original one, but tapered, the widest point does not exceed the arrow shaft itself, the lethality has decreased more than a little, but the armor-piercing effect is much stronger, in order to make up for the lethality, some blood grooves are added to the arrow. At the same time, the tail has also been canceled feathers, don't underestimate that thing, which is used to balance the body of the arrow when flying, without this thing, the arrow will start to roll around at eighty paces.
It was only seventy paces away from the plank. This distance is nothing.
Yuan Zhouzi gave an order, and ten crossbow arrows were fired together, and five hundred arrows rushed over overwhelmingly, clanging on the wooden plank.
The momentum is good, Xue Qing took Tianbao Zhang Quandan and a few people to go up to check, and almost all of them were inserted into the wooden board two-thirds of an inch. The county lieutenant said: "Your Highness, look. The bowstring in the barrel is still made of cow tendon, and no matter how much it is, it will not be able to pull it. The biggest effect can only be like this, after eighty steps, it will be like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers, and I don't know where it will go. I think that this thing is better than the quantity, and the range and power can no longer be improved, and it still needs to be equipped with commonly used crossbow arrows. ”
What else can I do, pop it out with cow tendon, and the strength will be like this.
Xue Qing took a detailed look at the cost of this thing and felt that it was acceptable. Maybe there's still room for improvement, but I can't use it now, so don't panic first, change it slowly, and make these things when I improve, you can use them first, in case of accidents.
There is no way to do it, China has crossed from the Qin Dynasty from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, and it is through the sharpness of iron weapons that the Qin State Iron Cavalry won the whole country in one fell swoop. At this time, it is impossible to fantasize about high-quality steel. Without high-quality steel, the barrel doesn't even think about it, if you want to cast a bronze cannon, obediently, how heavy is that thing, think about it, at this time, copper is the main material of money, a bronze cannon of several thousand catties can be worth the official residence outside. Unless it is in the hands of the state finances, it is simply wishful thinking to try to organize an artillery unit with a nobleman and a county of food.
In fact, they were originally reluctant to study such a four-like thing. In these years, a qualified archer can shoot arrows at two or three hundred paces, and in a battle, he can shoot at least seventy or eighty arrows before exhausting his strength. As for crossbow arrows, there are also various kinds of crossbow arrows, and there are up to three arrows fired at the same time, and their range is relatively poor. But the power is okay, some crossbow arrows only use one arrow, but the bowstring is strengthened, and they can shoot even farther than the archer.
But something like this, which only pursues a wide range of strikes and does not pay attention to power and range, I am afraid that no one really looks down on it. Xue Qing can't help it, the guy who doesn't take advantage of it, has no sense of security at all.
However, this group of people is quite funny, in the process of researching crossbow one, many traditional crossbow arrows were designed to make comparisons, and the pattern was renovated to abuse crossbow one. Never get tired of it. Xue Qing felt that those crossbow arrows were really good, but they couldn't achieve the purpose of a large-scale attack.
The principles of firearms have long been taught to the main roads, and even experiments have already begun to be carried out, and the principles of the steam engine have been told to them, the principle of levers, the principle of axles, and the principle of gear belts. But regarding the use of the steam engine, Xue Qing is also blind, only knowing that this thing directly led to the first industrial revolution. But I don't know exactly how I got it.
As for the second time, the third time, then don't think about it at all, what direct current, how did the alternating current come from, who knows, water can generate electricity, and thermal power plants burn coal? I have water, I have coal, but where does the electricity come from? Learn from Franklin and fly a kite when it's thundering, it's fine, but what else can it do besides being struck by lightning?
Maybe I talked about physics in junior high school, but Xue Qing still doesn't remember it at all.
Forget it, it's useless to have electricity at this time, and the light bulb is also a problem, how does Yuan Zhouzi look like it's not like Edison, more than a thousand material tests, and he died before he finished this product.
Spring ploughing, summer ploughing, and autumn harvest. Under the grace of Her Royal Highness the Princess, Wuling County has a bumper harvest this year, with a full warehouse of corn yellow, orange and orange. The copper coins of the treasury are tired of more than a dozen people. Tianbao Zhang Quandan teamed up to lead people out to collect taxes. Qiu Ping is in charge of the accounts. It took more than half a month before and after, and the county's tax revenue totaled more than one million yuan, and at the same time, the land income belonging to the princess's name was about more than one million stone grain, and more than 500,000 yuan.
Princess Zaiwuling probably has more than 700 dumps of land, and tenants are invited to manage it. In order. At the same time, a large number of people in Dongting Lake and several tributaries around the left and right, with the new shipbuilding technology of Tiandao, built a fishing team, this year also harvested a lot.
The imperial court's Yulu was also delivered, more than 2,000 stone of grain, which seems to be a bit small now, but even if it is ranked as the third duke, it is only 10,000 stone a year. Subsequently, the tax revenue of Champion County and Huo Quai's Yulu also came over, almost a million dollars, this husband doesn't make as much money as his wife, it's really embarrassing. But it won't be long before Huo Qu is about to be promoted.
Wei Qing and Pingyang also contributed about one million yuan each, and the comprehensive income of this year greatly exceeded the expectations of the audit team headed by Yuan Zhouzi. Xue Qing couldn't help herself, and spent money to buy a batch of children.
After a year of construction. Al-Qaeda is already quite large. The official residence and Taoyuan, the members of the Heavenly Dao Organization are about to exceed 10,000. Its scientific research ability, teaching ability, and combat ability have been greatly improved.
In terms of teaching, there is basically no need for Xue Qing to worry about it, basically the two taels of oil in her stomach have been emptied, and even Yuan Zhouzi and they have developed and researched a lot of knowledge that they don't understand.
The manufacture of land mines has become more and more mature, the safety and lethality are improving day by day, and the research of crossbow arrows is becoming more and more mature.
The paper has been studied, but it is horribly rough, and I can't go to the toilet. Barely usable, but not tested by time, if this thing is left for a few years, it will be brittle, yellow, and scattered when it is blown, then it will be blind, so it is not mass-produced.
Because of the various Dao under the Heavenly Dao, there are personnel exchanges, such as Yuan Zhouzi, who has to undertake teaching, academic theoretical research, and the development and testing of new products, and another example is a child, just twelve or thirteen, after studying, it is not bad, so he participated in the development and test of the product, and at the same time, the military training is also good, and he can participate in the action of Xundao.
