1629. This is the strongest?
Little Black prides himself on being a Confucian businessman, which can be seen from the sports he likes, he likes golf, and Qin Shiou likes basketball, as for Billy? This guy loves rugby, so little Blake usually calls Billy a savage.
Qin Shiou asked Little Blackcle to open a longbow to see how powerful it was, but it was actually a problem for him.
He himself was a master of playing with bows and arrows, and a compound bow was used by him with ease, and in his hands it was a weapon that was not inferior to a firearm.
Purely more powerful than power, the modern longbow is stronger than the compound bow, it can fire a cluster of arrows up to a maximum range of 400 yards, the initial velocity of the arrow can reach more than 60 meters per second, equivalent to a bolt falling from a 60-story building, or a stone thrown at a car traveling at more than 200 kilometers per hour, powerful.
In addition, in actual combat, the longbow can penetrate leather, padded armor and fabric, or penetrate chain mail at distances of 240 to 280 yards. At a distance of 200 yards, it can kill plate armor or fish scale armor and cause penetration, and if it is within 100 yards, once it is a head-on hit, even the plate armor will not be able to resist!
If you reach a range of 50 meters, the longbow and arrow can be said to be indestructible!
According to historical records, during the siege of Abergevinny in 1182, the Welsh fired arrows that pierced the four-inch-thick oak door panels. In the same battle, one of William's knights of Blause was shot, and the arrow pierced his chain mail skirt, shin guards, thighs, and through the inner leg guards and wooden saddle, all the way into the horse's back!
However, high-powered weapons require matching strength to be used, and the English longbow requires a lot of quality from the archers. So much so that many modern experts in cold weapon research believe that the power of the longbow is exaggerated.
Because if it is as recorded in history. The longbow is so powerful that the archers have a lot of strength. And even modern people who are well-nourished and scientifically trained. It was also theoretically difficult to draw the traditional English war bow, let alone the English peasants who were in a state of famine at the time?
Billy really explained this matter to the salvage work of the pirate shipwreck, he salvaged some dry bones, saying that there were some bones in the spine and humerus have been found to be deformed, the British are the skeletons of archers, they did not have as much nutrition as modern people at that time, but through sick training and special training, there is no pressure to pull this longbow.
Under Qin Shiou's teasing, little Blake had to take out a longbow to prove his point. The bow is made of fine yew wood, charcoal-roasted and oiled, and soaked in whale oil all year round.
Qin Shiou helped Little Blake put on the bowstring, pulled it and tried it, and then exclaimed: "Shet, it's unbelievable, this bow and arrow has to be kept underwater for hundreds of years, right?" Can it even be pulled away? Except for the Yue King Goujian Sword in our country, I have never seen such a perverted cold weapon in ancient times. ”
The bow is still resilient. But the bowstring was not working, and little Blake drove the ducks to the shelves, and he took two deep breaths, and his face showed a solemn look. The bow was raised in the left hand, and an arrow was placed on the bowstring in the right hand, ready to be drawn.
Qin Shiou went up and pretended to be kind to remind him: "Hi." Brother, don't blame me for not saying it in advance. Unlike other bows, the English warbow was not the sharpest force. It's the end archer, which means that your left hand is the most forced, don't strain the muscles. ”
Little Blake had finally mustered up the strength to shoot arrows, but as soon as Qin Shiou interrupted, his side lost all his strength, so he could only scold and pull the bow again.
He took two deep breaths again, his chest and abdomen muscles tensed, his legs stretched into a horse step, and his right hand squeezed the arrow feather as hard as he could.
At this time, Qin Shiou walked up again and said: "Be careful, man, don't let go of the empty string, that will hurt the bow too much - you remember, this bow is your British treasure inheritance, and this is still an antique cultural relics weapon." ”
The attention that had finally gathered was dispelled again, and little Blake couldn't help but scold his mother: "Fake squid, Qin, you get out of my way!" You damn thing, what's the use of using this kind of indiscriminate means? I'll be sure to show you that our warbow is the best in the world! ”
Qin Shiou shrugged his shoulders and stood aside and hugged his arms and waited, he knew that Little Black would definitely not be able to shoot a powerful arrow.
Archery is a kind of warfare, and the emphasis is on one blow, and then three times and exhaustion, and little Blake will have heart failure.
Little Blake gathered his strength again, and then made a gesture several times and put down his bow and arrow, and Billy waited impatiently, and said, "Brother, can you hurry up and shoot it?" What the hell are you shooting an arrow or jerking off? Lao Tzu masturbates faster than you...... Shet, I didn't mean that......"
Qin Shiou looked at him in horror, and Little Blake was full of anger: "Fake squid, you two bastards, I won't let you go!" ”
While roaring, little Blake pulled the bowstring back violently, only to hear a crisp sound of 'bar chirp', and the antique bowstring broke at once......
Billy was dumbfounded at this moment, Qin Shiou was mentally prepared, and explained: "It doesn't matter, in the past, the bowstring was made of sheep intestines or tendon tanning, and after being placed for so long, it has long been inflexible, and it is normal to pull it apart and break." ”
Indeed, the bowstring has no toughness, and neither is the elasticity, if the normal bowstring is vigorously broken, the bounced bowstring may be stretched on the human face and cause injury, and the bowstring will break and hang down like a rope.
Hearing his salty and indifferent words, Billy was greatly dissatisfied and shouted, "What does it mean to be normal? This is an antique, understand? I found that bowstring, and you broke it for me? ”
Qin Shiou waved his hand and said, "Okay, man, isn't it more important that our brother's safety is okay?" The bowstring is just broken, not lost, and just bonded with pine resin glue. ”
Billy muttered: "I hope, I have thought about who I will sell this longbow and this armor to, it is definitely worth millions, the bowstring can't be broken, if you lose any of them, the value will drop a lot." ”
Putting away the longbow, Qin Shiou looked at Little Black with a grin, and said, "This is the world's No. 1 England war bow?" I don't think that's it. ”
Little Blake was so angry that he said, "When you put on a new bowstring, I must show you the power of our warbow, isn't this a joke?" Brother, I'm not joking! ”
Billy's salvage team continued to work, and from time to time whale oil barrels were pulled out of the water and immediately sent into the hold, and special personnel began to clean the whale oil in a vacuum environment, showing off the precious antiques inside. (To be continued.) )
