Chapter 138: Bed Crossbow

Two days later, Zhao Mingyue's winch and armor division's bow and crossbow were finished and ready to cooperate with the trial launch, and Ling Kun was naturally invited to watch.

The test launch site was selected on a vacant lot near the city wall, and there was a big tree next to the wall as the target for today's test launch.

The bow and crossbow were pulled over, and Ling Kun saw that this was too big, the size of the big bed he slept on, and a winch the size of a stone mill was connected to the back. Inside the crossbow, two bowl-sized springs are placed side by side, drawn by a thick iron chain.

Ling Kun couldn't wait and asked, "What about the donkey, quickly pull a donkey over and see if you can pull it away." ”

Zhao Mingyue was so angry that she hammered him twice, and said angrily: "How do you know that donkeys, fighting on the battlefield, every second counts, and when you put on a donkey, you will have already been destroyed by the enemy, and besides, there is a connecting hub in the middle, and it is inconvenient to pull it with a donkey." ”

Ling Kun was puzzled: "How can you pull it without a donkey." ”

"You're a donkey's brain." Zhao Mingyue scolded: "Isn't it different to use people, this is a winch, and it is not pulled by strength." ”

Ling Kun patted his head and exclaimed, "Oh, it's really a donkey's brain, why didn't I think of it." He had seen a winch pulled by a donkey on Zhao Mingyue's boat before, so he had a preconceived idea that the winch should be pulled by a donkey.

Zhao Mingyue glanced at him and called a soldier over. The soldier easily turned the lever, and the winch began to turn with it.

One, two, three...... The spring began to rattle and slowly stretch backwards. Then turn, then stretch, until it is pulled above the trigger. Two more soldiers came and pressed the arrow groove into the towing hook.

At this time, Hao Wenkai personally held a big arrow and put it into the arrow slot, Ling Kun almost laughed when he saw this arrow, where is what kind of arrow, it is a spear.

Everything is ready, just wait for General Ling Kun to give an order before it can be tested.

Ling Kun used to be very excited every time he saw the launch of a spacecraft on TV, the chief engineer gave an order, and the rocket soared into the sky. At this moment, he finally found this feeling, just like launching Shenzhou 9, after a ten-second countdown, he shouted "launch", and then waited for a miracle to happen.

However, the miracle did not happen.

The two thick springs in the crossbow have a lot of strength, and once the towing hook is pulled, how can the trigger be easily pulled open. The soldier in charge of the operation was so tired that he was sweating profusely and could not pull it.

Ling Kun was in a hurry, told the soldiers to leave, and operated it himself. He brought up the internal strength, so that he could use

I pulled it hard, only to hear a clatter, the trigger was broken, and the towing hook still didn't move.

"It's ......." Everyone was dumbfounded, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

The most embarrassing thing is Ling Kun, who pretended to be forced for a long time, and it was really embarrassing to have such an effect.

Zhao Mingyue's pretty face changed color, and she worked hard for two days, did she want to come to naught?

Ling Kun frowned and looked at the huge bow and crossbow, and saw that there was a hammer in the toolbox next to him, so he took out the hammer and smashed it against the traction line from the bottom to the top, and sure enough, the traction line slowly moved up a little.

Ling Kun saw hope and clanged at the traction line made of iron chains. The tow line slowly went upwards and finally broke free of the tow hook. The spring quickly recovered, sending the spear out in a blast.

The spear burst through the air with a high-pitched chirp. With a loud bang, the spear stabbed into the tree, shattering the trunk and crashing the tree to the ground, while the spear stabbed deep into the city wall behind.

Everyone was stunned by the powerful power of the bow and crossbow, and they were stunned for a while. Zhao Mingyue was surprised, happy and worried, pulled Ling Kun's sleeve and said, "Ling Kun, this is considered a success or not." ”

"Of course it worked." Ling Kun said.

"But, how?"

"Haha, just shoot it with a hammer." Ling Kun laughed.

"It's ......." Everyone was stunned, such a powerful weapon was actually fired with a hammer, it was just, simply, it was as uncomfortable as a stunning beauty with a vegetable leaf on her teeth and a coquettish smile.

But what can be done?

"Okay, okay, that's it, how many of these crossbows can be made in two days?" Ling Kun didn't care about this, as long as he was powerful and could fight.

Zhao Mingyue looked at Hao Wenkai and muttered, "It should be possible to make four, right?" ”

Hao Wenkai nodded and said: "Let the masters work harder, it's okay to make four, and I'm afraid it won't work anymore." ”

"Okay, a total of five is enough, we don't have much time, we must attack again early the day after tomorrow." Ling Kun ordered.

"Yes, the end will ensure that the mission will be completed." Hao Wenkai bowed and replied.

"Okay, go ahead and I'll not bother you." Ling Kun said and turned to leave.

"The marshal walks slowly." Hao Wenkai shouted.

"Is there anything else?" Ling Kun replied

Head asked.

"Palace, our newly invented bow and crossbow is so powerful, should we give it a name?"

"A name?" Ling Kun asked suspiciously.

Zhao Mingyue nodded and said, "I should have a name, otherwise it's not good to always call it a bow and crossbow." ”

"Then, Mingyue, this is developed by you, you will be fine." Ling Kun spread his hands.

Zhao Mingyue glanced at him and said, "Don't, it's all your general's idea, I don't dare to take credit, it's better for you to take it." ”

"It's ......." Ling Kun searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, but he really couldn't think of a good name that was elegant and mighty.

Everyone looked at him blankly, and Zhao Mingyue urged: "You should hurry up, is it so difficult to choose a name?" ”

Ling Kun stared at the king-sized crossbow and thought, "This, you see that the crossbow is as big as a big bed, so why don't you name it a bed crossbow." ”

"Poof." Zhao Mingyue burst out laughing on the spot, and everyone was dumbfounded, but they desperately held back and didn't dare to laugh.

"If the bed is big, it's called the bed crossbow, and if the house is big, it's called the house crossbow?" Zhao Mingyue was angry and funny, and laughed.

"Hey, hey." Ling Kun touched his nose awkwardly and said, "It's inappropriate, Mingyue, why don't you think of one for me." ”

Zhao Mingyue glanced at him, looked at the bow and crossbow and thought about it, she also felt that it was really unreliable to let Ling Kun name her, it was even more unreliable than using a hammer to launch.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I think a bed crossbow will do." Hao Wenkai said on the side.

"No, no, it's too ugly." Zhao Mingyue waved her hand.

"The name is just a code name, the key is to see who takes it, the palace marshal is the head of an army, and he personally invented this kind of bow and crossbow, and then he personally named it, and he will definitely be able to win in the future, invincible."

"Well, yes, that's right." Everyone next to him responded one after another.

Zhao Mingyue was a little embarrassed, and everyone said something reasonable, but this name was too vulgar.

"Mingyue, don't listen to Hao Dutou pretending to be a ghost, it's good if you choose a name, as long as you get it, I think it's good." Ling Kun slapped his ass with a shy face.

Zhao Mingyue sighed and said: "Forget it, the bed crossbow is the bed crossbow, the hammer is the hammer, these are not important, the important thing is to be useful on the battlefield." ”

Everyone was overjoyed, and Hao Wenkai said: "The princess is wise, and the new bow and crossbow will be named the bed crossbow." ”
