Chapter 39: The Crisis Is Approaching
In Sun Ji and others, because of the appearance of Danmu and the falling moon bow, fell into worry, Zhao Xin with the help of super ear power, basically understood the performance of the falling moon bow, 15 stone strong bow, can be pulled away with the power of 10 stones, this is not a common labor-saving device for modern strong bows in later generations, this in the era of scientific and technological development, the labor-saving device that gradually appeared, so that ordinary people can pull away the strong bow that can never be pulled away in the past, for example, after a series of forces can be more than 80% labor-saving, open a 500-pound strong bow, Probably only 100 pounds of force.

Modern technology is not possible in the Song Dynasty, the kind of irregular surface processing technology, know the theory, do not have enough processing capacity, it is also in vain, obviously, the moon bow uses a similar technology, Zhao Xin did not see it with his own eyes, the same played a role in saving effort, but reduced by one-third, so that this bow has the effect of turning decay into magic.
Zhao Xin somewhat understands that the reason why the moon bow can be rated as level 3 is not because of its strong bow power, just take the bow as an example, a bow is 10 stones, and when the two bows are stacked together, it becomes 20 stones, of course, in the middle, the power will be lost a little, and there will be huge problems if the setting is not good, but starting from the three-bed crossbow, the superposition technology is not a top-secret technology in the era of cold weapons, in this sense, it is not a problem to achieve a crazy increase in bow power, more than 4 stone bows, compared to ordinary 1 stone bows, they are difficult to manufacture, The level of craftsmanship has reached a very high level, and it can be said that it has been promoted from level 1 to level 2 in the past, but no matter how big the bow power is, according to this method, it is not difficult to superimpose and strengthen, which is not significantly improved.
This kind of superposition, for the pursuit of a certain limit, is useful, things are endless, people are poor, just like the moon bow, when it is made, everyone is amazed, understand the craft, and there is no more, this exceeds the limit of the human body, it can't be used at all, in fact, it is not a special fierce general in the army, more than 8 stone bows, there is not much meaning.
The moon bow is a 15-stone hard bow, even the most powerful generals in the imperial equipment can not be opened, Sun Ji is the most promising to pull away, when he was young, the peak strength approached 13 stones, it can be said that it is the closest among all the generals, but in the end, Sun Ji's strength stopped at 13 stones, which also made Renzong give this bow to Sun Ji's idea, which is also the reason why Sun Ji knew this bow, a court banquet, Wang Deyong responded properly, Renzong was happy, he gave this bow, this matter, Without going through the holy decree and the middle decree, it was not widely circulated in the court, and many people did not know that the Wang family had such a bow.
Wang Song and Sun Ji are both insiders, they know that Wang Song knows the inside story, as one of Renzong's cronies, among the families that are closer to the people behind the scenes, the Wang family is one of them, when he left Beijing, he got a piece of information about the Wang family, and several other families, as for Sun Ji, this bow that is known as no one has pulled it apart, the strongest bow in history, at a certain moment, the distance from him is only two stones, but from the time it was given to Wang Deyong, he knew that he would never get it again.
Sun Ji is true with imperial equipment, in the military, it is also a character, it depends on who to compare with, in terms of level, he is a middle-level officer, deeply trusted by the emperor, and can be promoted by one or two levels of evaluation, but what kind of person is Wang Deyong, the head of the West Mansion, one of the most pinnacle people in the military, even if he is the head of the Prime Minister's East Mansion, it is a little difficult to get something from the Wang family, let alone a small piece of imperial equipment.
The most important thing is that this was originally useless, even if it was the most elite general, it couldn't pull it away, and the reluctant use of this moon bow, which was known as the first strong bow, was only to show off at most, but the actual effect was far from being better than using a more suitable 10 stone bow, but on the contrary, after the Wang family got it for 2 years, suddenly some news came out that the Wang family improved the moon bow and saved 5 stone of power, as long as the strength is about 10 stone, it can be pulled away.
10 stones, for ordinary people or ordinary generals, this is still not an easy to pull away the power, in the top group of people in the circle of generals, especially in the circle with the best archery, at least 10 people can pull it up, the name of the moon bow has spread in a small area, and there is a secret display, a general with unparalleled bowing skills has tried one, the power is very amazing, the direct shooting range is more than 600 steps, and the projectile is more than 1,000 steps.
It is in this way that the moon bow is famous, and has become a secret treasure of the Wang family, a strong bow with a range of 600 steps, in the era of cold weapons, it can be called a divine weapon, 600 steps, are more than 700 meters, in most of the bow's range is 100 steps, 150 steps can already be said to be super long-range, the English longbow as the strongest bow in Europe, under the premise of using projectiles, can only reach a little more than 200 steps, a range is 3 times that of a longbow, or direct shot, not projectile, The deterrent and lethal power it brings is absolutely amazing.
From the warning circle at about 100 steps, it has suddenly increased to 600 steps, even if it is a master like Sun Ji, it will feel a headache, the most terrible thing is that they are passively beaten, that is to say, as long as Danmu is 600 steps away, you can threaten them without any scruples, even if it is Sun Ji, to reduce the distance of 600 steps, it will take a considerable amount of time, in the middle, Danmu can attack unscrupulously, for masters, not to mention dozens of breaths, hundreds of breaths of time, even if it is 10 breaths or even a few breaths of time, It is enough to decide the outcome of the battle, Danmu alone can contain all the masters, including Sun Ji, and with some Qiang riding assistance, Zhao Xin's danger has greatly increased.
Soon, they turned around from the bow, such a terrible bow, it is definitely impossible to be a rival, unless Sun Ji also has a similar weapon in his hand, this is impossible, after the Wang family can use this moon-falling bow, many craftsmen, including Renzong, want to figure out what this theory is, if you know this theory, you may not be able to make a stronger than the moon-falling bow, However, among the 13.14 stone bows, there are still many options, and the Wang family kept it a secret, claiming that this solution, like the birth of the Falling Moon Bow, is an irreproducible coincidence, and their craftsmen have not been able to achieve it on other bows until now.
Maybe it's true, the Wang family, there is no news of other bows doing similar modifications, there is only one 15 stone bow, but 10 stone to 12 stone strong bow, the Wang family's heritage, can still get a lot, according to the same proportion, the 12 stone strong bow, get 8 stone the most, get 10 stone to six or seven stones, for the Wang family, these elite, almost unusable strong bow, it has become a standard equipment that can be used, this kind of improvement, the Wang family can not let go.
If this method is true, this is probably a strategic method, which can save 50% of the strength, the original can use 3 stone bows, you can use 4.5 stones, you can use 2 stones, you can use three stones, and the power consumption is about the same, this is equal to the strength of the archer troops, has been directly improved, one can strengthen the role of a strong general, and strengthen the role of the entire archer team, this is absolutely not the same.
Whether it's true or not, with Wang Deyong's status, you are the privy envoy, the prince of the country, as long as he doesn't want to say it, there is really no one who dares to force him to say the way, for most people, this is an ordinary weapon, even if it is a god arm crossbow and a whirlwind cannon, the killer weapon of the Western Xia army is only the attention of the military, and the Wenchen side and the emperor do not think that one or two weapons can change the situation on the battlefield.
Others don't know, Zhao Xin knows what method is used, 15 stones, into 10 stones, may be the use of eccentric wheels and pulley block combination of the device, such a labor-saving device, for later generations, is just a simple processing problem, for the Song Dynasty thousands of years ago, that is an out-and-out black technology, and even the craftsmen who do all this may not understand the scientific truth contained in it,
With the help of the fixed end and the pulley group, to save a part of the force, with the eccentric wheel to adjust the waveform of the force, not only to achieve the ability to save the strength to pull the bow, when holding the bow, the sustained force will also be reduced, this is the terrible thing about the modern bow, the greatest force is to open the bow, once the bow is pulled apart, after the power is offset, the power consumption of the bow will be greatly reduced, which is more convenient for the archer's aim.
In this era, elite archers don't even need to aim, instinct can hit, a method called heart aiming, the heart feels it, and the bow is accurate, it sounds, a little unbelievable, but it is the instinctive memory of muscle formation after countless repetitions, which is completely a kind of practice makes perfect, because for soldiers, for archers, the bow and arrow is the guy they eat, they take this as a job, tens of millions, or even billions of repetitions, this is the instinct formed, and in the 21st century, The bow is more of a pastime, a sport, and even athletes who specialize in this profession, who do not repeat as many times as the elite shooters of ancient times.
Knowing the principle does not mean that it can be made, level 3 cards, he can only see approximately, as if in the position of the bow scabbard, there is something suspected of a pulley group, the bowstring is also a different strand, he knows the principle, using simple physical knowledge, you can set the eccentric wheel and pulley group, find a skilled craftsman to grope and explore, you can develop it, but unfortunately time is what he lacks the most, now the speed of the ship has reached the extreme, the biggest danger, I'm afraid it will be in the next three or four days, if it is passed, everything will be fine, When you go to Miaojiazhuang, you can develop step by step, but it will be a big trouble, a moon bow that can be compared with a sniper rifle, and a top shooter Danmu, the combination of the two, the threat generated is enough to threaten life, and he must think of a way to deal with it.
