Chapter 194: Ten Miles of Wind Stink
The original bows and crossbows could not meet Shi Lei's requirements. One of the www.biquge.info is that the original bow and crossbow were designed for facing the enemy head-on, which is a little larger and not very convenient when dealing with special operations. And more importantly, it is limited by the material of these bows.
In the face of bad weather, these composite bows and crossbows composed of wood, horns and bones are very unstable, and it is likely that they will not be able to exert even half of their usual power, which will have a greater impact on accuracy.
For example, if you soak in water for a long time, the deformation of various materials will definitely be great, or you will lose your elasticity or hardness, and some bows will even fall apart at all, or the bowstring will break when you pull it.
This is also an important reason why the bows and crossbows on Shi Lei Zhuangzi are easily afraid to take out, and most of the time, they can only be carefully hidden.
In this place of Yazhou, it is not much worse than soaking in water every day, or why do you do anything, you have to stay under the grass hut.
In special operations, rain and snow are precisely the favorable factors that need to be well utilized. It's also normal to be ambushed in a puddle or something. There are no ranged weapons to work with.
So Shi Lei thought of the later generations, those modern bows and crossbows.
Of course, compound bows with eccentric wheels and the like, don't think about it. Shi Lei himself can't figure out what kind of structure and material it is, and it's unrealistic to want to get it out on Datang's side.
It's the kind of soft steel crossbow of later generations, and Shi Lei feels that he can't try it.
Although in terms of real performance, even if advanced materials are used in later generations, the things produced may not be as powerful as the ancient compound bows.
But there is one biggest advantage, that is, the adaptability to all kinds of weather is much better, and Shi Lei likes this feature of the mild steel crossbow.
After hearing Shi Lei's thoughts, Uncle Blacksmith, an anxious guy, once again began a sleepless experiment.
And the target is naturally the product of gold-eating ants, those magic gold and star iron.
The final test results did not disappoint Shi Lei, using Xingxing Iron as the main body, to create a crossbow arm of a soft steel crossbow, with a little magic gold patch, to enhance the elasticity of the bow wall, and then use super strong silk to make silk strings.
Although the power of the mild steel crossbow produced is far worse than that of the five-stone strong bow, it is already close to catching up with the power of the three-stone strong bow.
You must know that the size of the bow wall of this soft steel crossbow is much shorter than that of the strong bow, and it is even worse than Shi Lei's six-stone strong bow.
Coupled with a light crossbow body, although it is made of star iron as the main material, the weight is not heavier than that of a compound bow, and the overall description is small and exquisite, which is not too much.
And the speed and accuracy of the arrow are even more powerful than the common three-stone composite strong bow.
The properties of this star iron and magic gold material are very stable, and they can cope with all kinds of environments with ease. Even if you soak in water for a long time, you don't have to worry about it at all.
Portability is not to mention, it can be said that it fully meets Shi Lei's requirements.
Solving this problem, Shi Lei's expected equipment used by the special forces will be regarded as alive.
At most, there is a hook that can be placed on a bow and crossbow, and the hook that can be attached to the tail end of the rope to make it easy to climb high places, or climb walls.
It's also very useful, especially in special operations. There's also a guy in the team who uses this thing as a weapon.
It's just that without the cooperation of the bow and crossbow, the launch distance will be much shorter, and now with the mild steel crossbow, there is no such concern.
After the soft steel crossbow was fully equipped, Uncle Hunter specially prepared a trumpet strong bow for Qi Tianhou, a killer with a thin body but potential as an eagle archer.
In order to match Qi Tianhou's figure, especially his not too prominent arm span, the bow wall of this bow is naturally shorter.
Correspondingly, in order to increase the strength of the bow body, the number of magic gold patches was also increased during the production process.
As for the bowstring, of course, it is still a specially processed iron wire snake molt, and at both ends of the bow body, the blade of magic gold is added.
In this way, Qi Tianhou, who uses the bow as the main weapon, in addition to long-range shooting, can also achieve a not weak effect by directly using this bow to attack in close quarters.
Whether it is the bow wall or the bowstring, it is a killing weapon, and there is no need to tie special daggers on both sides of the bow like he did before.
Of course, such a short bow body can achieve the power of a five-stone strong bow, but in fact, the pulling force that is really needed is greater.
The deformation of the bow body is smaller, but the force generated is greater, that is, the bow body is actually harder.
Thanks to Shi Lei's transformation, he has also used this small but powerful bow and arrow, but it is just right.
As an inconspicuous killer feature, it is more appropriate. can be regarded as a sniper arranged by Shi Lei in the team.
It's not that Shi Lei hasn't thought about using an armor-piercing cone to achieve the effect of a crossbow, but this is not realistic.
The attack distance of the armor-piercing cone is relatively limited, and it can be thrown out for dozens of meters, which is already very powerful, and the grasp of accuracy is much worse.
Compared with the hand crossbow that can be fired horizontally within 100 meters and ensures the accuracy of the head, the disadvantage is obvious.
Of course, there are also people in the team who are particularly sure of throwing armor-piercing cones, because several of them originally used double guns as weapons or played with hidden weapons.
Of course, the talents of these guys can't be wasted, and they will have a few more armor-piercing cones in their equipment.
Combined with the crossbow, it is responsible for providing long-range firepower over a larger area, and can also be used as a killer weapon to raid opponent leaders.
Because the lethality of the armor-piercing cone is definitely stronger than the armor-piercing arrows shot by the crossbow of the hand, who made this thing big.
Finally, in the end, it is what Shi Lei is best at, equipping this special forces with a lot of animal helpers.
The explosive beetle can be used as a lighter, as an incendiary bomb at a critical moment, or as a flashbang at night.
Rock eagles and hounds, which can be responsible for reconnaissance and vigilance, are also equipped to the squad level.
Shi Lei is bleeding profusely now, except for Huangtian and Dafu, the two closest guys, the other powerful guys who have undergone two transformations have been stuffed into the special forces.
Even if you just use these special forces as scouts, they are more powerful than those top scouts on the grassland who know how to train eagles, who makes their helpers, the level gap is too big.
In addition, Shi Lei also deliberately found some yellow-throated martens, these little guys are much more numerous than weasels, but in terms of size and appearance, the difference is not too big.
Anyway, Shi Lei can't tell the difference, and even among the same kind that Xiao Jin caught, there are yellow-throated martens mixed in it.
However, the direction of their transformation is not quite the same as that of those weasels who stayed in Zhuangzi.
Since it is also a mink, there is no shortage of smelly glands. What Shi Lei strengthened was their ability in this regard.
Although it does not have the function of ecstasy, when the transformed template becomes a skunk, the effect is also so powerful that it is suffocating.
Within a range of three or four meters, their stench can be completely pointed at anywhere, and this foul smell can be smelled very clearly from 800 meters away.
If the concentration is relatively high, it can really stun people or even smoke to death.
Later generations even developed skunk bombs to disperse crowds, which shows the power of this thing.
And Shi Lei superimposed and transformed the stinky glands of these little guys, and the purpose is self-evident. It can be used as tear gas. In some special occasions, the effect is very powerful.
Throw these little things into the house, and even the most determined enemy will definitely escape from his fortress.
In addition, it is to modify the agility of these yellow-throated martens, so that they can smoothly enter the predetermined range to spray odorous liquid, and they can also get out of the whole body.
Thinking about the scene of these little guys going crazy, Shi Lei has to mourn for the enemy.
It is said that this kind of smell, don't think about getting rid of it within 5 years, even if they survive by luck in the future, they are destined to be the ones who stink ten miles in the wind, absolutely notorious. (To be continued.) )
