Chapter 389 Military Parade (II)
Of course, Li Shimin didn't know that this kind of longbow, in addition to being longer, looks unremarkable, in fact, it is Jinyang's latest product, and there are only five hundred of them at present, the latest alloy steel of the longbow, good toughness, lightweight, and most importantly, with pulleys, so it has this range.
"Brush! Brush! Brush! "Stretch the bow and take the arrows, the arrows rain flying, and they tremble on the target! One person, five arrows, none of them missed the target!
Not only his own people, but Li Shimin and others were also dumbfounded, such a distance, it was terrible to think about. It's just that they don't know that this is also the farthest distance, and if it is farther, the lethality will be gone! And it can only be a fixed target, and there is no way to move the target at this distance so sharply.
"Sharp arrows! Sure enough, it lives up to its name! Liu Heimin looked at the archers under the banner, his pupils shrank, and he muttered to himself.
The common people are much simpler, of course, the more powerful their own family members are, the better, and the cheers in their mouths are constant!
As the people cheered, the sharp arrow performed a burst of shooting, and the most powerful one, a nine-star bead, aroused the full house!
The sharp arrow salute retreated, and the cavalry appeared again, these five hundred cavalrymen, dressed the most strangely, without armor, with a row of javelins on their backs, and spears in their hands!
The spear of one zhang and five zhang looks like a heavy cavalry used to charge into battle, but the men and horses have no armor, so it is impossible to charge into battle; Although there are no bows and arrows, there are javelins, and they are barely light cavalry.
The cavalry crotch under the war horse, Li Shimin's eyes are red! All Liaodong Malaysia! You must know that the Liaodong War Horse is famous for its endurance, and the best thing is this Liaodong Horse, endurance, explosiveness, and there is no shortage of it! Tall and fast, it's best to assemble heavy cavalry!
Li Shimin thought that this was Zou Yu's use to show off, so he equipped the war horse to these light cavalry. He didn't know that this light cavalry was itself equipped with this kind of war horse!
Special troops, naturally have a special role, don't look at the wooden guns they use, add a fifty cm gun head, in fact, their wooden guns are not inferior to steel! It is made of iron birch, a specialty of Liaodong, which has great hardness and unique toughness of wood!
This kind of iron birch has a high density, even if it is dry, it will sink if it is thrown into the water, and it is not a waste of effort to make weapons for them!
This kind of iron birch, the long one is made of a long spear, the short one is made of a javelin, and some leftovers are just used to make some parts of the ballista!
In fact, Zou Yu didn't know that this iron birch was used by Lao Maozi to make high-grade bearings in later generations, and it was used on aircraft ships instead of iron bearings, which was light and strong.
And the war horses, some are collected, some are self-cultivated, and the total number is only a little more than a thousand, and this kind of soldiers and horses is only two thousand, and their role is to run and contain! Chase, decapitation!
Sword! This is the sword of the sword, if you don't come out, it's enough, and when you come out, it's a throat seal! At a very fast speed, he rushed to the enemy's command post, and when he didn't react to the others, and the reinforcements were too late, he was killed with one blow!
The cavalry show, decent, is a sprint, a javelin, in the eyes of the insider, but so! It's just that Li Shimin frowned, puzzled, he always felt that it was not so simple, but he couldn't think of anything wrong, so in the end he had to think that he was too sensitive, shook his head and stopped thinking nonsense.
No matter how many ordinary people there are, as long as there is a performance, they will cooperate with the applause, just like a professional praiser.
Beggars! Seven kills! Greedy wolf! Break the army! One by one, the sophisticated equipment is eye-opening! Even if it was just the thousands of people who appeared, they could already see Li Shimin's scalp tingling, the impact of the heavy armored cavalry was incomparable, the heavy armored foot soldiers, immobile like a mountain! The weapon is cold and shining, and the thigh-thick tree is cut in two!
The drill was wave after wave, there was no urine spot throughout the whole process, and when the soldiers left, Li Shimin suddenly found that his back was already wet with sweat!
Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, everyone realized that the ballista and catapult had been set up on the side! Immediately after that, a group of soldiers armed with crossbow arrows followed!
Repeater! Crossbow! Ballista! The power shown made the people tremble, and they knew that the war was so thrilling! Looking at the straw man with arrows stuck in his body, he felt his ass tight, and his heart was cold.
After a secret comparison, Li Shimin sadly found that whether it was a ballista or a catapult, they were better than them! Not to mention the crossbow, even the crossbow, they don't have it, even if there are some, they are old and lose their teeth, and they belong to the government offices of the former Sui Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin thought that Zou Yu sacked Chang'an first, and then occupied Luoyang, and the best craftsmen went to him! The more I think about it, the more depressed I become, it's really one step first, step by step!
"Your Highness, don't worry, since you know the shortcomings, just go back and recruit people to improve." The eldest grandson Wuji saw Li Shimin's sorrow, and stepped forward to comfort him in a low voice.
Li Shimin naturally would not be knocked down by this blow, as soon as the eldest grandson Wuji persuaded him, he came back to his senses, cheered up and said: "The auxiliary machine is reasonable, there are many craftsmen in the world, and you can always find some people who understand equipment." ”
"Your Highness is right!" The eldest grandson Wuji nodded in agreement, then hesitated for a moment, lowered his voice and continued: "There are many craftsmen in the family. ”
Li Shimin didn't answer, just nodded silently, what the eldest grandson Wuji said was exactly what he thought in his heart.
Zou Yu saw the afterglow, looked at Li Shimin and the others who were whispering, and couldn't help but show a wicked smile, and thought to himself: "This is surprised, the main meal has not come up yet." ”
He was very much looking forward to waiting for the expressions of Li Shimin and others, but unfortunately there was no camera, otherwise it would be a pleasant thing to record it.
"I'll memorize their expressions and draw them!" Looking at Yan Liben not far away, Zou Yu beckoned over and said to Li Shimin and the others.
"Whoa!" Yan Liben naturally understood the shock of the person who saw the artillery for the first time, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth for Zou Yu's bad taste, and then gave up his hand to agree.
"Listen, everybody! Listen, everyone! Dozens of guards, holding megaphones, shouted in all directions.
The audience, who was originally talking with excited looks, immediately stopped, looked at the guards who were close to them, shouting.
"Wait a minute, we're going to show our Datang artifact! There will be an earth-shattering sound! It's all normal! Don't panic, everyone, stay where you are! The guard explained aloud, shouting three times in a row before stopping.
Immediately after that, the soldiers who had just been shown reappeared, guarding the perimeter of the people, in order to avoid possible confusion.
"Artifact!" Not only were the people surprised, but so did Li Shimin and others, all looking around, wanting to see what it was!
