The bow and arrow is a long-range weapon with a sharp blade that was fired from the bow in ancient times. The bow is composed of an elastic bow arm and a flexible bowstring, and the arrow consists www.biquge.info of an arrowhead, a shaft, and a feather.

It has to be said that although the distance between early humans was very different, whether it was in ancient Asia or Europe, such magical things as bows and arrows appeared.

The early people were still unable to communicate at that time, but there were some very similar tools, and bows and arrows were one of them.

The invention and improvement of the bow and arrow made it possible for people to accurately and effectively kill and injure prey at a long distance, and it was easy to carry and use, and many arrows could be prepared for continuous shooting. If any tool or weapon is an extension of the human hand, then the bow and arrow can be regarded as the greatest extension of the human hand before the invention of firearms.

Engels said: "The bow and arrow are to the age of obscurantism, what the iron sword is to the age of barbarism and the firearm is to the age of civilization, and even the decisive weapon." "It's still not enough to say that about bows and arrows.

The invention of the bow and arrow has a non-negligible role in human civilization, after the bow and arrow, human long-range attack weapons are mainly all kinds of projectiles.

Stones, javelins, and other throwables have a natural deficiency compared to bows and arrows.

That is, the route of the projectile is a parabola, and only a very well-trained hunter can control the distance and strength of this parabola, which is quite difficult.

But the bow and arrow is different, it is largely in a straight line, and the ancients can ensure that they can shoot their prey after a short period of training, which is very important and improves the efficiency of hunting.

At the same time, the bow and arrow can prepare many arrows and shoot continuously, and the strength of the human body is relatively small compared to the throwing object.

Of course, this is relatively small, in ancient China, it was not easy for a soldier to become an archer, first of all, there was an innate requirement, that is, arm strength.

Ancient archers generally had a criterion, and if they wanted to become an archer, they were able to draw a stone bow.

The so-called one-stone bow refers to hanging a hundred-pound weight on the bowstring, and the entire bow can be pulled away, which is a stone bow.

Of course, the kind that can pull the five-stone bow along, the kind that belongs to the talented fierce generals, is very rare.

Later, there was a bow and crossbow, which is also a change, but the bow and crossbow also have their own congenital shortcomings, first of all, there is no way to eject, you must know that ejection is an important means for ancient infantry to fight against cavalry and defend the city.

Then there is the small range, which is a bit similar to the submachine gun of small Japan during the Anti-Japanese War, with various defects.

This is also the reason why Han Yi did not learn bows and crossbows but learned bows and arrows, because Han Yi did not dare to guarantee that crossbow arrows had the power to pass through the skin of his prey, and at the same time, it was more troublesome to make, anyway, archery was not too big a problem for Han Yi, so Han Yi simply learned bows and arrows.

Han Yi's bow this time is a one-stone bow, in fact, if it is calculated accurately, it should be a one-point five-stone bow, which is a range that Han Yi thinks is more suitable.

Now Han Yi is concentrating on making his own pruning on the ground, and if he wants to make an arrow shaft, he doesn't need to look for this, the best thing to use here is bamboo.

Han Yi used all the tools he could use now to sharpen the bamboo as much as possible, if the arrow shaft was not straight, hunting and aiming would become a big problem in the future.

As for arrowheads, it's best to use metal arrowheads, but flint sharpened tips can also be used to make really sharp arrowheads.

However, Han Yi didn't have these two things, and if he was looking for flint, he might really be able to find it, but Han Yi was not ready to look for it.

First of all, this flint may not be found, and even if it is found, there is a very serious problem, that is, how to make an arrowhead, which is also a technical work.

Han Yi will definitely not be able to make flint into arrows by tapping, and the most important problem is mass production, Han Yi can't make only one arrow, so it's unreliable to use flint.

Therefore, the method used by Han Yi is to sharpen the front end of the bamboo directly and then quench it.

"Han Yi, you still look quite similar!" Li Yapeng walked over at this time, picked up a few arrows that Han Yi put on the ground and said.

"It seems, but it's not certain whether you can succeed in hunting in the future!" Han Yi shrugged and said.

"I'll just try it later!"

"Yes!" As he spoke, Han Yi took the arrow and prepared to quench it.

But after a while:

"Oops!"

"Han Yi, what's wrong?"

"No, it's just not quenched, I don't understand, this arrow is scrapped!"

Looking at the arrow in his hand that had been burned, Han Yi said a little distressed.

"Let's try a few times!" Xiong Dailin said with a nonchalant expression.

"After trying a few times, this is easy to say, but it is not so easy to do, this every pruning is carefully made by me, it is not easy!" Han Yi was still distressed about the scrapped arrow.

"Then what can you do, don't you quench?"

"It's okay if you don't quench, but this doesn't guarantee its hardness, I have to think of something else!"

"Then you want to!" Then Li Yapeng and Xiong Dailin went on to do their own thing, all they had to do this morning was to lay the top of the shed with palm leaves, and always use a tarp as the roof, which is not a problem.

"What to do? This quenching is to reduce the moisture in it, and then increase the hardness, can not be roasted on the fire, how to deal with it? ”

Han Yi frowned, touched the arrow with one hand, rubbing back and forth, and at this time he suddenly felt that his fingers were a little hot.

"Aha, there it is!" After feeling the temperature of his hand, Han Yi was very happy, he couldn't put it on the fire to roast, so he used friction to remove the moisture inside.

Just do it, Han Yi found a more suitable place, and then began to experiment.

Of course, although this method does not burn the pruning, it does pay for its own physical strength, and this friction is to pay for its own physical strength.

As I said before, survival is a matter of energy, if Han Yi can't catch the prey later, then this time Han Yi's efforts will not gain anything, this will be a very fatal problem!

When Han Yi was making bows and arrows, the three people who went out to look for them also encountered a situation that they had never thought of...... (To be continued.) )
