Seeing that Han Qi was interested, Sun Ji continued and began to practice other subjects, the longbow was once a popular branch of the whole Europe, and he had many training subjects.

By the 21st century, in fact, many training subjects are gone, and enthusiasts, that is, they practice casually, at most, go to the mountains to hunt rabbits and so on.

Fighting rabbits, compared with the real war, are simply two completely different directions, of course, there are also some domestic and foreign enthusiasts, summarized some training of the classical longbow, which was told to Sun Ji by Zhao Xin, including his understanding of the longbow, and some tactics that have been used as a thermal weapon with the longbow, for example, three sections and five sections.

The third and fifth sections, to put it bluntly, are under the premise that the arquebus is slower to load, and the queues are used to form a relatively dense attack, which is divided into two types: forward and backward, the former is used for pursuit, and the latter is used for defense, which can save a lot of time to ensure the density of the entire barrage and increase the explosiveness and durability of the killing.

It's just that the rate of fire of the longbow is much faster than that of arquebuses and the like, 12 to 15 rounds a minute, which is basically several times the rate of fire of firearms in the era of mature firearms.

According to the data in the Japanese Army Drill during the Anti-Japanese War, the standard rate of fire of the 38 guns is 5 rounds per minute, of course, this is aimed shooting, aiming takes time, if there is no brain, in fact, it is also 5 rounds, because there are only 5 bullets in the magazine, and it takes time to load.

However, the longbow is different, because of the standardization, he can follow the training steps and perform regular attacks, such as extended attacks and covering attacks.

In short, no matter what you do, unless the lead archer makes a change, otherwise, it is in order, which is no different from brainlessness, and training is to let the longbowman master this routine.

Different routines, generally between 60 and 120 breaths, show an overall attack, Han Qi put away his previous contempt and suspicion, and when he looked at it seriously, he was also shocked by the longbow routine.

There are different tactics, for example, light archers, light infantry, fire suppression, siege, and even pursuit and blocking battles.

Although there were some problems at the beginning, with the concentration of the archers, they were all put on the bow and arrows, the speed was significantly accelerated, the neatness was strengthened, and the mistakes became smaller.

One by one, Han Qi brought it into it and felt the horror of the longbow, it can be said that in addition to the heavy infantry, other arms, when they meet the longbow team, there is basically no possibility of victory, especially Sun Ji also mentioned that in the field, you can choose a 6-meter-long spear to form a phalanx to protect the output of the longbow.

The strongest defensive arm of the Great Song Dynasty is the heavy armored infantry, not that the spearmen are stronger than the heavy armored infantry, the key is that the hands of the heavy infantry are too short, that's right, because the heavy infantry is wearing heavy armor, he has no way to pick up longer and heavier weapons, so most of the heavy infantry battles are melee.

Under the premise that one side has a strong bow and arrow, melee is the best choice, and if you are afraid of accidental injury, the bow and arrow are basically useless.

However, the 6-meter-long spear has a huge blocking effect, and the dense spear array of the spear phalanx can also have a lot of lethality.

One subject after another, from simple to complex, lasted for a long time at once, and the more Han Qi looked at it, the more pleased he became, this must be an excellent weapon, and it also made him excited, but it seemed that something was wrong.

Han Qi is a smart man, and he is in the prime of life, he started from the idea that suddenly popped up in his mind, and soon thought of the place of the troops, from the beginning of the drill, a total of 15 subjects, there are 60 breaths, there are also 120 breaths, calculated, it is almost two quarters of an hour, according to the archer's rate of fire, the average speed of 10 arrows and 60 breaths, this time 200 arrows were shot.

What, two hundred arrows, Han Qi was almost stunned by the result he calculated, this is also too unbelievable, but everything in front of him is in front of him, in the distance, on the training ground, the arrows that are densely inserted prove that this number is correct.

500 longbowmen, in just the time, shot 100,000 arrows, not to mention all the previous training and exercises amazing, in terms of this continuity, there is a terrible batch, not to mention that he has never seen archers who have shot more than 100 arrows, but those who are not famous, they are very famous in the entire forbidden army.

Noticing that Han Qi's expression was a little sluggish, the captain who was most familiar with his pro-soldiers was a little puzzled, yes, this performance is very beautiful, but if their pro-soldier team performs, it will be much more beautiful than this, similar fancy performances are the best part of the pro-soldiers.

He was about to belittle the Longbow team, but Han Qi's whispered words made him tremble, 200 rounds, at least 200 rounds.

Only then did he pay attention to the drill, and of course there was also the rate of fire, the rate of fire of 60 breaths and 11 arrows seemed to be very outstanding, much faster than ordinary archers, but he didn't expect that in the next performance, the longbowmen performed all kinds of skills, although there were some unsatisfactory points, but the rate of fire has not decreased.

That's right, in some of the simpler projects, the rate of fire has even increased, and in a short period of time, they have completed more than 200 arrows.

You know, the short archer can shoot 60 arrows in a row, which is already quite good, which is also the shortcoming of the short archer, no one is as talented as Sun Ji, but Sun Ji holds his most advantageous 10 stone strong bow, don't think about shooting for hours in a row,

The captain of the pro-soldier was bitter for a while, and he wanted to say that this longbowman deliberately chose the stronger person and used a softer bow, but he couldn't say anything.

In warfare, especially in critical battles, the archer can reduce his strength and use a softer bow, which is customary in itself, and a softer bow can develop a more consistent shooting ability and increase durability.

But this increase is in terms of ensuring the power, you can take a bow of half a stone, or even one or two buckets, and it can last for a long time, but what is the use of such a bow that is completely non-lethal.

Although I don't know how much the lethality of the longbow is, and I don't know what the bow power is, but looking at the neat shooting of those bows and arrows into the ground, plus the farthest range, I know that this longbow is qualified, and on the battlefield, a bow with such lethality and distance is already very good.

Why is this happening, these dirt buns that seem to be unstable even with a bow, why, there is such a fierce explosive power, 200 arrows, not only the rate of fire is 3 times that of the short bow, but the continuous explosive power is more than 3 times, and although the training has stopped, the longbowmen are not tired and lie down, obviously, they have spare strength.

As soon as he thought of this, the captain of the pro-soldier was first stunned, 500 people shot 100,000 arrows in a row in two quarters of an hour, which is almost like a fantasy, even if there is only one point of hit, it can hit a thousand people.

Of course, it is definitely impossible to get a point, such a dense rain of arrows, as long as it is a lightly armored or unprotected target, there are no arrow blocking vehicles and other shields, the hit rate depends on the density of soldiers in this area, if it is really a phalanx where large armies gather, it is possible to hit one percent, or even two percent.

Two quarters of an hour, 500 archers, can kill 20,000 people, is it possible?

It may not be possible, to speak with facts, of course, the 20,000 army cannot all be unprotected or lightly armored targets, but the previous doubts are not broken, let alone 1500 archers, in the face of the dense rain of arrows of 500 longbowmen, even if it is 3000, or even 5000 archers, it can be suppressed.

Because this is not a field battle, this is a city defense war, the range of one side is naturally more than 100 meters more than yours, plus the terrible range brought by the longbow projectile, if you want to enter the range of the shooting, you have to bear 60 breaths, or even 120 breaths in the opponent's arrow rain.

This is at most 5,000 arrows among ordinary archers, but in the longbow, it has directly multiplied several times, about 20,000 arrows.

For lightly armored archers, 20,000 arrows, what does this represent, it represents a terrible, endless rain of arrows, and it also represents endless casualties, not which army can withstand such large casualties.

Solved the question that 500 longbowmen suppressed 3 times the siege archers, and even more doubts arose, looking at the range of the longbow, the bow power of this bow is not low, but why can these archers shoot so much.

Among the forbidden army, the elite archers who can shoot 4 stone strong bows, they pick up a stone bow, at most 100 arrows, doubling is already very terrifying, long-term reciprocating archery, for the archers' physical strength and endurance, is a huge test.

Shooting with a bow and arrows is never a simple matter, the seemingly easy process of opening and shooting out is very large for the physical strength and energy consumption of an archer, and the archer is also an intermittent outbreak of troops, in the case of full outburst, at most a little more than a quarter of an hour, there is no way to continue.

As for the talented, this was considered, but it was quickly vetoed, what is more talented than the forbidden army, can open more than 5 stone strong bows, and the endurance is very good, the durability is high, in the entire Great Song Dynasty forbidden army, there are no 500 people, that is the entire Great Song Dynasty range of selection, at least, also among the 800,000 forbidden army.

Miaojiazhuang could not be larger than the selection of the Great Song Forbidden Army, so the longbowmen were able to do this, obviously, on the bow.

From the very beginning, Han Qi had already noticed this bow, but at the beginning, he just felt that the group training in Miaojiazhuang was replaced by an ordinary civilian hunting bow on the premise that there was no way to obtain the military's standard longbow, because the longbow was very similar to the single bow of an ordinary hunting bow, but now, after the drill, especially under the premise that Sun Ji respected it so much, Han Qi obviously recognized that this bow was not simple.
