Chapter 470: "Divine Arm Bow"!

The lights on the wall of the Song army village are clear, but not all the Song soldiers have seen it from the beginning of now. Just like the onlookers in later generations, some people understood what was happening, and some people were fools all the time and didn't understand what was going on.

Moreover, such foolish people are still in the majority, from ancient times to the present day. Not only that, even if there are people who understand, as long as there is no order from a superior official, it is common sense to stick to a dead order, and those who come to the camp will attack.

Just like under the walls of the imperial palace, within ten steps, if there is no holy decree to enter the city, the guards can be shot. Even if the person is an acquaintance, as long as the guard really shoots, he will die in vain.

This is especially true inside and outside the battlefield of the Song camp, if no one answers, maybe he will really die at the hands of his own people.

A sparkling cold light could be seen on the wall, which was the cold light emitted by the arrows on the Song army's crossbow. It seems that after Tong Guan entered the camp, he didn't know what an accident happened, and Jing gave such an order, or there was no order to release at all. It's really a fool now!

"Ma Dan, all of them are divine arm bows, this TM is equivalent to a Song Dynasty-style bazooka, if anyone shakes his hand. That's really chilling! Running all the way, Zhu Zilong, who has the best eyesight in the sky, couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The Divine Arm Bow, also known as the Divine Arm Crossbow, was invented by the Northern Song Dynasty Shenzong, the bow body is three feet three feet long, the string length is two feet five, and the shooting range is far more than 240 steps. Wanyan Zongbi's "Book of the Four Marshals of the Legacy" said: "In the past, I went to the south, and I saw the Song Dynasty using military weapons, and the great one was just a divine arm bow, and the second was a heavy axe, and he was fearless outside. ”

In the topic of war, powerful weapons have always been hot and eye-catching, and whoever can win depends on whether the guy in his hand is hard or not!

In the history of ancient warfare, weapons are still the last word, typical Han-Hun war, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty decided to go to war, the equipment of the Han army has been upgraded to iron swords and iron-clad Han crossbows, and since then the Xiongnu have been beaten all the way to collapse. Chen Tang, a famous general who went deep into Afghanistan and took the Xiongnu Shan Yu Laowo, said: A single heavily armed Han soldier has no pressure to pack up three Hun soldiers!

But this hard truth, if it is put on the Northern Song Dynasty, it is really too much to say tears: obviously there is a powerful weapon in his hand that is ahead of the world at that time, why can't he win?

The level of the "crossbow", the specialty scientific and technological equipment of the Chinese nation, is close to its peak. The crossbows of the Song army are divided into light stepping crossbows and heavy bed crossbows, and there are dozens of subdivisions. In addition to a lot of tricks, the lethality is more terrifying, when the siege of Youzhou was besieged, the heavy bed crossbow could actually nail the crossbow arrows to the city wall, so that the ironclad Song soldiers climbed up, and the Liao soldiers defending the city opened their eyes.

What's even more crazy for the Liao soldiers is that this thing can not only nail the city wall, but also nail people. The Song army beheaded tens of thousands of Liao troops many times, all thanks to the crossbow arrows. In the most critical battle of Lanzhou, the marshal of the Liao Army, Xiao Tzulan, was sniped by the Song army's bed crossbow and nailed to death.

It was precisely this tragic scene that made Liao Guo completely make the most difficult decision: not to fight and sign the "Yuanyuan Alliance". Kill a hundred years of peace at once!

However, this is of little use.

No matter how powerful the weapon is, it is also used by people, and the people below are also under the command of the officials above, and the ability of the officials depends on the overall environment and the emperor. And the environment of the Northern Song Dynasty and the emperor at this time, hehe, don't talk about it!

When the Western Xia regime rose, in the face of the Western Xia army, which was strong in bow and fast in horses and not weak in military equipment, the traditional advantages of the Song army were dissipated at once. suffered a lot of losses in the early wars, and in the end he could only admit the peace treaty, and watched the Western Xia occupy the Hexi Corridor! That's the proof of this!

For example, a muscular and fierce warrior has a brain with a low IQ. How can such a stupid man win the master's move? Upgrading equipment but not growing brains, the lessons of the Northern Song Dynasty, the swan song of the divine arm bow, will never be in the past!

Of course, at this moment, these cranky thoughts will not solve the problem.

When Zhu Zilong's doppelganger was still a mile away from the Song camp, he opened his throat and began to shout for safety: "I am the second envoy of Xuanshuai, and the accompanying official court invites a doctor!" Together with Ma Xuanzan and Zhenwei Captain Lin Chong, he is now returning from the camp! In the big camp in front, it's all our own people who let us in! Blocking the Liao army sentry behind me, I have an important military return, and a mistake should be a big mistake! ”

This roar only called out his identity as a civil official and an envoy, and also called out his own people in the Song camp, which is not unintelligent.

And a mile away, he began to call, as long as the idea was not too unlucky, according to Zhu Zilong's idea of clone, it should have an effect.

As expected, some Song soldiers on the city wall heard this, and some of them ran to the door on the spot, preparing to open the camp. However, at this time, another officer came up, stopped in a loud voice, and shouted: "Stop, when is it your turn to give the order for the night watchman like you to open the camp?" Yang Xianggong's general order wants us to guard this place like an iron bucket, but if there are people who rush to camp at night, they say that they are Song people, but who knows that it will be a spy pretending? In case it is the bitter trick of the Liao dog envoy, if something happens, how many of you can eat it? Do you want to die? Stand down! ”

The officer obviously had the intention of doing so, and some Song soldiers who had spoken clearly listened to it, clenched their fists, but their faces turned red. But there is nothing to be done!

There's no way, the official is one level old and crushes people to death, not to mention that it is several levels bigger. This principle is effective in any dynasty, not to mention the era when civilian officials are in charge of military generals, and laymen are in charge of insiders. The life of a warrior is worthless!

In the barracks, in the midst of the war, it is either black or white, so what gray will it be?

As long as you can't open a camp to meet each other, for the sake of safety, it is either friend or foe. This reason is clear, and the soldiers of the Song Dynasty on the city wall glanced at each other in embarrassment, but they clenched the bows and crossbows in their hands and were ready to shoot at any time.

At an important moment, seeing that the Song people's own arrows were about to fire, Yue Fei and his party were about to be killed or injured under their own hands. Suddenly, a figure ran out of the camp, but it was Lin Chong.

He was covered in blood, but he was rushing forward with the last bit of strength. Just roared as soon as he came out, and at the same time waved the military flag and an object in his hand, and said: "Don't open the bow, there are people in the camp who are rebelling, and Shuai Xuan has just successfully quelled the chaos." The military flag and tiger charm are here, and the person who comes outside is my family, open the camp door quickly! ”

Lin Chong's roar was really a peaceful force, and it was heard for miles around at the moment.

The people guarding the camp all heard it, and some clever people had long been extremely quiet after the weirdness in the camp tonight and the roar of some camps, and they felt that something was wrong, and now when they heard it, it turned out. But there are people who rebel, and they want to come to the officials are not low. At this time, it has to be calmed!

The crossbowmen on the city wall in the Song camp quickly came back to their senses. What else did the officer who gave the order just now want to say? But the petty officer commanding the crossbowmen had already ordered: "The arrow is raised by two fingers, and if a Liao person comes, stop and shoot the Liao cavalry." For the sake of hurting the Song envoy in front of him! ”

Don't say it, behind Zhu Zilong's clone and his party, at this time, a small group of Liao sentry horses followed closely. It is really imperialism that will not die in China's heart!

I saw that in the next second, on the wall of the Song camp, a wave of arrow rain quickly appeared. Shooting backwards against the scalp of Yue Fei and the others, if this is a little lower, it will really hurt by mistake.

Immediately, behind Yue Fei and the others, the formation of the Liao cavalry was suddenly chaotic, and all kinds of screams came and went.

Shen Kuo recorded in his "Mengxi Writings": "In Xining, Li Dingxian set a crossbow, like a bow and a stirrup. With the stirrup from the ground and open it, shoot 300 steps, can be re-pierced in the hole, called the "god arm bow", the most sharp weapon. No joke!

In just one wave, the team of dozens of Liao Sentinel Cavalry Scouts almost eight or nine times out of ten fell off their horses.
