Chapter 630: Divine Crossbow
The weather in Chang'an was getting colder and colder, and Qin Wu and the others had already rushed to the Western Regions with the imperial soldiers and horses with a caravan.
Cheng Yanjin and others were building a ranch, and Qin Tian was busy working on the Tang Dynasty crossbow in the house.
Everything was going on in an orderly manner, and at the end of autumn, when winter was about to begin, Qin Tian's divine crossbow was finally ready.
Three crossbows.
In the early morning of this day, the cold wind was howling, the hall was surprisingly cold, the ministers shrank their necks and discussed, Li Shimin was not even willing to burn coal in the imperial study, let alone the main hall.
The Tang Dynasty was poor, so the officials also suffered.
There weren't many things going on in the early dynasty today, and after about an hour, the things that should be discussed had already been discussed, and just before the early dynasty retreated, Qin Tian stood up.
"Saint, the Tang Divine Crossbow has been made."
The Tang Dynasty crossbow shooting thing was only mentioned by Qin Tian during the autumn hunt, although everyone knew that Qin Tian was doing this thing, but everyone really didn't expect much from him.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that Qin Tian actually did it, when a month had passed.
Everyone looked at each other, Li Shimin stood up from the dragon chair and said, "Qin Aiqing, the Tang Dynasty crossbow is finished?" ”
"Yes, Holy One, do you want to give it a try?"
"Of course you have to try."
Qin Tian bowed his head, and then sent someone to his house to fetch the Tang Divine Crossbow, a total of three Divine Crossbows, but he sent almost twelve people.
Seeing so many people to get it, everyone couldn't help but pout, it seems that this Tang God crossbow is not small.
Everyone guessed in their hearts that Li Shimin had already taken everyone to the open space in front of the palace hall, which was very large enough to accommodate thousands of people, and it could be regarded as a martial arts arena.
When the palace people went to get the Tang Dynasty crossbow, Li Shimin's side sent someone to get some scarecrows, and these scarecrows were listed at one end, a bit similar to the formation of the two armies against the enemy.
After doing this well, the palace finally transported the three Tang Divine Crossbows.
Three Tang Divine Crossbows were transported in a very large carriage.
After moving into the square, everyone couldn't help but be curious, and surrounded them to watch.
This crossbow is the size of a table, the structure is very complex, and there are all kinds of machinery in it, which makes people a little confused after taking a look at it, and they don't know how this thing works.
The front is one arrow hole after another, about twenty or thirty, and there is a quiver in the back, as long as the arrow is loaded into the quiver, the sharp arrow immediately slides into the arrow hole, the speed is particularly fast, and there is no need to worry about not slipping in.
Everyone was a little surprised to see this, it seems that this is a time to shoot twenty or thirty sharp arrows, if this can really be done, then the efficiency is twenty or thirty times, in the face of the enemy, their rain of sharp arrows must not shoot the enemy?
Everyone looked at each other, Cheng Yanjin couldn't wait any longer, and jumped out first.
"Holy Lord, let's not look at it, how about trying it first?"
Li Shimin was also a little impatient to wait, and nodded: "Okay, try it first, see the effect, Qin Aiqing, is it okay to put it here?" ”
Li Shimin was referring to the distance of one arrow, and after Qin Tian saw it, he shook his head: "Holy Lord, this distance is a bit short, you can go further." ”
"A little later?" Beyond the usual distance of an arrow, it is a very good thing for them, if they have a long range, they can fire before the enemy can shoot, so that they are safe and sound, but the enemy has already been shot.
It's only a short distance, but sometimes it can really make a difference.
"Okay, stand back."
After the Tang Divine Crossbow retreated for more than ten meters, it finally stopped, Qin Tian came to the Divine Crossbow and turned a handle, and just after he turned the handle, the sharp arrow suddenly flew out.
A Tang Dynasty crossbow, twenty or thirty sharp arrows flew out at once, the speed of the sharp arrows was very fast, and it was also very fierce, and after the sharp arrows flew towards those scarecrows, they directly shot through the entire scarecrow, and even, because it was too fierce, after the sharp arrows hit the scarecrow, they directly shot down the scarecrow.
Thirty sharp arrows were fired at once.
When everyone saw it, their eyes widened, and they couldn't believe it was true.
"Isn't it, it's so powerful, more powerful than Zhuge Repeater?"
"This Tang Dynasty crossbow is really amazing, absolutely amazing."
"Who said it wasn't, this thing is too powerful, if my Datang has thousands of Datang Divine Crossbows, it is equivalent to tens of thousands of archers."
"But isn't it, I have these things in Datang, why can't I break the enemy?"
Shocked, shocked, everyone was shocked, originally, they thought that shooting a few sharp arrows at once was already powerful, but this Tang Divine Crossbow invented by Qin Tian could launch dozens of arrows at once, such an increase in efficiency was simply too cool.
And the most important thing is speed, distance and strength, which are better than people pulling a bow and shooting arrows.
In the entire Datang, there will be no more than a hundred people who can shoot this speed, distance, and strength.
They are even tougher than the Turkic men who shoot arrows in the capital.
Li Shimin was also shocked by the scene just now, and he could even think of what kind of spectacular scene would be if thousands of Tang Divine Crossbows were launched at the same time.
"Qin Aiqing, good, good, you are my hero of the Tang Dynasty, a great hero."
Li Shimin kept saying that it was good, but he didn't talk about the reward, Qin Tian stood next to him and pouted, if someone else did this, why would they have to be promoted, right?
He's already the prime minister, and there's no one to be promoted, but he should be able to add a knight?
However, Li Shimin didn't mention this matter at all, obviously, Li Shimin didn't think that this thing was enough to give Qin Tian a knight.
Under normal circumstances, only people who have made great military exploits can be knighted, and civil officials must also have a particularly large contribution before they can be knighted.
Qin Tian's Tang Divine Crossbow is not bad, but it will only be after it has an effect that Li Shimin will consider whether to knight him or not.
"Qin Aiqing, this Tang Divine Crossbow looks very complicated, it must be very troublesome to do, right?"
"Holy Lord, it's really troublesome, it took almost a month for the minister to do these three, ordinary craftsmen, it's good to be able to make one in half a month, of course, if you are skilled, a craftsman can do three in a month."
Qin Tian didn't have a golden finger to do it quickly, let alone other craftsmen, but Li Shimin didn't care, and said: "Okay, immediately hand it over to the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry, let them not only make the Zhuge Repeater, but also strengthen the production of the Tang Dynasty Divine Crossbow, and make as many as possible." ”
Li Shimin has increased his investment in armaments, and he hopes too much to build a strong army.
