Chapter 48: The Eight Ox Crossbow

Yang Yi, Shadow, Shadow and a thousand Praetorian Guards.

This is the person Li Shimin arranged to follow Leng Feng, and Leng Feng became the leader of this team after being casually placed in the rank of general.

After Weishui, when approaching the border, you must not only resist the severe cold at night, but also beware of horse thieves who appear from time to time.

The so-called two fists are hard to defeat with four hands, and the horse thief Leng Feng can still be cleaned up when he encounters dozens of people, and if he encounters more than 100 people, unless Sun Simiao returns the pistol, he can't deal with it.

If you encounter two hundred horse thieves...... Hehe, here a pistol will not work, a submachine gun is the best choice.

But alas, the submachine gun was lost when Leng Feng rushed to the sniper point. Otherwise, it is the best weapon to dominate the Tang Dynasty.

The sniper rifle is the most accurate firearm, but when it comes to large-scale wars, Leng Feng uses it at most to point out the opponent's senior officials, and when it encounters a strategic shift, it is just a burden, and it must be lost. So Leng Feng didn't bring anything this time except a grenade, a military thorn, and a sword gifted by Li Shimin.

A thousand heavily armed troops are enough to make any horse thief flee in fear.

This does not include a wild boar, though.

There were too few people in the Tang Dynasty, and sometimes if you picked a small hill, you could encounter fierce beasts such as tigers and wild bears.

The wild boar has thick skin, and ordinary arrows can't help it, and the arrows shot by the soldiers can't even shoot through the shell of the wild boar mixed with mud and pine resin, so at this time, the eight-bull crossbow is needed as a big killing weapon.

Tie Ling's eight-ox crossbow arrows can even be nailed into the city wall for soldiers to climb and siege the city, not to mention a wild boar?

Yang Yi deliberately found a good angle, smashed a hammer on the trigger, and the giant arrow directly exploded the boar's head.

Yang Yi suddenly screamed, he didn't know the power of the Eight Bull Crossbow, he thought that at most one arrow would kill the wild boar. It's a pity that the pig's head can't be eaten now!

In the evening, a thousand people were stationed in a hidden col to boil pork in a pot.

While Yang Yi and the others were waiting for the pork to mature, Leng Feng became interested in the Eight Bull Crossbow.

The crossbow arrows that several strong men can pull apart little by little, no wonder they are called "Eight Bull Crossbows"!

The officer in charge of managing the Eight Bull Crossbow saw that Leng Feng was studying the Eight Bull Crossbow, so he walked over with a smile: "The general has never seen this Eight Bull Crossbow?" ”

Leng Feng nodded: "I've never seen such a huge crossbow that can be activated with such effort, it's no wonder that we are only equipped with one in a thousand." ”

The officer patted the eight-ox crossbow and said: "The general doesn't know that the thousand-man team is not qualified to be equipped with eight-ox crossbows, only an army of more than 20,000 people, and it is a siege battle, it will be equipped with ten."

The eight-ox crossbow is a heavy weapon of the military state, never used easily, this one is said to be the marshal on the table to the court to ask, the Turks do not have a city, and they don't know what the marshal wants this thing for. ”

What did Li Jing ask for? This news alone made Leng Feng interested.

Who is Li Jing? "God of War"! When he was conquering the Turks, he deliberately asked for an eight-ox crossbow, which could not be to shoot rabbits on the grassland, and he wanted to experiment with the damage of the eight-ox crossbow when dealing with cavalry.

The Turks are especially good at horse archery, which is difficult for the Tang army to compete, so improving weapons is the only thing the Tang people can do.

Among the weapons, the famous Mo knife appeared to deal with cavalry.

The lethality of the eight-bull crossbow was already at the level of "nuclear weapons" of the Tang Dynasty, but it was almost impossible to gain from applying it to the Turks.

The eight-bull crossbow is lethal, but the winding is time-consuming and laborious, and there is only one blow, although this arrow can shoot two or three people, but on the official battlefield, during the time of winding, the cavalry with the scimitar has already killed.

Li Jing is an excellent commander, there is no reason not to understand this!

It takes time to think about things, and after Leng Feng finished thinking about things, there was no longer any pork for him.
