Chapter 116: The Little Girl Who Plays the Slingshot
Unfortunately, the program that this guy is proposing now is definitely not wrong, and it is really a big proposition. Dynasties have changed for thousands of years, as he said, everyone is like a bird, but the most essential culture has been inherited.
Hanwa's industriousness and kindness never need to be doubted, just take these hungry mountain people under his command now, Bai Agarwood has deep feelings, set a program and strict implementation of the rules, and give them a small amount of hope and respect, they are always very adaptable and energetic, and can work from dawn to sunset in the scorching sun or heavy rain every day, including the elderly.
This is a kind of efficiency that Bai Agarwood never thought would appear when he broke his head. As a result, the atmosphere is now very good, such as cutting wood, cutting wood, collecting charcoal, strengthening the city walls, building houses, producing cement, etc.
has experienced countless dynastic changes, and even experienced inhuman years such as the Five Hu and Five Dynasties, what remains unchanged seems to be the essence of this group of people. From this point of view, the most serious injury to this group of people is, of course, the barbarian Hu, followed by the wanted criminals such as Wang Xiu, who are mad and murderous without blinking, and finally the profiteers and the government.
"Well, you're always a scholar. I believe you this time, and I won't believe you next time. ”
Bai Agarwood thought that he was a little deflated in the end, and subconsciously wanted to enter Tokyo one day to be the empress himself, but at this moment of internal and external troubles, Hu people are ready to move, and robbers and murderers are sharpening their knives. This behavior seems to be a bit of a bully, afraid of the hard, not authentic, and definitely violates the spiritual program of this scholar.
Thinking about it, he turned his head sideways and glanced at him a few times, he simply didn't want to think about these big propositions, he was a brainless thief, his sister was responsible for charging into battle, and the black-bellied scholar was responsible for programmatic matters.
Shaking his head, Bai Agarwood said: "I miss it very much after not seeing you for many days, do you want to come to my room to talk about some private topics." ”
Zhao Cheng was a little squirming, "Take me to see the situation of slingshot training, you and I are very busy now." ”
……
The situation at the slingshot training ground is in full swing, and the crackling sound everywhere is the sound of using a slingshot to shoot steel balls and hit objects.
Listening to Bai Agarwood, now due to the misoperation of the technology, it is not uncommon to injure one's hand when launching the steel ball, or to scrap the slingshot fork.
Zhao Cheng will definitely not have any experience with these, the good thing is that Bai Agarwood has talent for these, and she herself is practicing hard, this can be regarded as a pioneer, she can summarize some safety rules in slingshot training, as well as skills, and try to explain them to everyone in popular terms.
In addition, regarding the amount of training, Zhao Cheng's estimate at that time was relatively objective, under the control of Bai Agarwood, basically everyone could have nearly 300 rounds of training per day, and the overall quality of short-range strikes improved quickly.
Divided into a group of five people, they can get acquainted with each other during training, and live some small group life, every two days, these small groups will have slingshot competitions, with some reward measures.
After watching it for a while, Bai Agarwood said with confidence, "Scholar, you are amazing, this slingshot artifact you provide can't be said, the biggest feature is ease of use, I am very sure to withstand Wang Xiubu." ”
Zhao Cheng is different from her, not pessimistic but not so optimistic.
Whether or not the cottage can be defended depends on Wang Xiubu's program, quality, and equipment. In short, in terms of the number of people and the value of personal force, Yangshan Zhai lost too much to Wang Xiubu.
Bai Agarwood has an incomparable bunker system skill "Taizu Heart Method", and the morale and cohesion of the military are definitely not a problem, but war is a collision of strength after all.
If you want to say good, of course, it is better to bow and arrow. In this era, a whole army of qualified longbowmen has been trained, and that is truly the invincible concept that I have in the world. But the key is cost and price, and it can always be implicated in the problem of money.
Not to mention the divine arm bow of the military department, in terms of the productivity of this era, to make a good longbow, it basically takes a master craftsman of dozens of copper coins a minute, and it takes several years and countless secret recipes to take shape.
The Song Dynasty did not lack contemporaneous technology, and the productivity was also very high compared to ancient times.
But now Zhao Cheng is in contact with military spending and equipment matters, so he can be regarded as an insider. So in the Great Song Dynasty official market, how much does it cost to buy a good longbow made by a great craftsman? The answer is: it is equivalent to spending tens of thousands of dollars to buy a car in later generations.
The Great Song Dynasty pays attention to the secret recipe, this kind of technical work must have high added value, coupled with the ancient technical productivity, there is no magical composite material, all rely on skilled and experienced carpenters, with special wood treatment technology, repeated shaping, baking, air drying, coating and other processes, to determine the durability and thrust of the bow.
The Divine Arm Bow is the pinnacle of this kind of craftsmanship, and it can also be regarded as the pinnacle of material science in the Great Song Dynasty. The people who have this kind of technology must be the top elite, so they concentrate on the military construction superintendent to produce the Divine Arm Bow with a higher salary, and the Divine Arm Bow will be more expensive.
As for the bows used by ordinary box army archers, they are all shoddy psychological comfort, strictly speaking, they are not qualified weapons, or they will be broken and damaged after a few casual pulls, or they will be closer to a hen.
Of course, the bow used by the head is not a rotten product, and it really costs nearly 100 yuan to purchase. It is for these reasons that the black hole of the Great Song Dynasty's military spending is shocking.
Assuming that the Great Song Dynasty had 50,000 capitals (in fact, it would only be more), the equipment of these middle-level officers, not including war horses, armor, salaries and corruption, would need to be filled in by five percent of the Great Song Dynasty's annual finances.
For this reason, all eight layers of the Great Song Dynasty's finances were used for military spending.
In the future, what way to farm and grow is not to mention, now the cost of ownership is very low, easy to train and the lethality is basically qualified slingshot, so the confidence and vision of white agarwood is some. As for Zhao Cheng, he only felt that it was an expedient measure, and of course the slingshot was not a long-term method.
In addition, the concept of "women holding half the sky" has nearly doubled the working population and productivity. In fact, in terms of combat power, according to the program of the scholars, and based on the fact that Bai Agarwood is a woman, there is no need to deliberately promote propaganda, and the women of Yangshanzi are in a state of "liberation".
Even manual tasks such as picking up limestone and carrying cement are not small in number.
In the long-range combat team designated by Bai Agarwood, there are also about one-tenth of women. For example, now, when Zhao Cheng observed them training slingshots, he found that the best slingshots were a team of mothers and daughters, the mother was very young, not beautiful or ugly, and the life of the mountain people caused her to have slightly dark skin and talk less.
The daughter is an eleven-year-old girl, the girl who has just grabbed salt.
Upon closer inspection, the little girl's slingshot skills are simply unbeatable in the cottage.
Zhao Cheng specially took a pen to count, watching her shoot about twenty shots, fifteen-meter target, she didn't miss the target, and the results were relatively stable, about two shots and eight rings, five guns and seven rings, and a maximum of six rings and five rings. The worst is also the third ring, and there are not many.
People who don't have enough skills and talent can't play with such stability. In similar technical work, in fact, it is not very important whether the ten rings or the nine rings are not, and the most important indicator is actually stability.
Zhao Cheng pointed at the little girl curiously and asked, "How long has this girl been practicing?" ”
Bai Agarwood said: "For about five days, I am more diligent and active, and the total number of training is less than 2,000." I didn't let her practice before, but she always clamored to play the slingshot, and then an old man was eliminated at the end, and with the mood of trying it out, I let her join in. ”
"Interesting ......"
Zhao Cheng muttered.
